Resident Evil: Vengeance

The man who got me caught up in this world to begin with, the reason I've had to deal with all these bastards and monsters, the one cloned me and had the whole world think I tried to unleash some stupid fuċkɨnġ virus...How is he alive?! Leon killed him!

Staring at the face of the man she hates, a flame ignites inside her.

"A-Ada, what are you doing here?" Derek asks with a look of complete bewilderment.

"I could ask you the same thing," She replies in an irritated tone, having to keep herself from just grabbing her gun and shooting him, "You're the one who died after all," She turns around and resumes typing on the computer. The reflection from the screen shows him walk over to her side.

"What are those?"

"Don't know, don't care," The files finish copying and she closes the window, pulling out the usb. She then deletes all the data on the computer.

"Are you working with Luther?"

"Yes, and it's just as bad as the time I worked for you back in Raccoon City,"

"Why are you working for him then?" Ada glances at him, a burning anger in her eyes.

"...I have my reasons," She puts the usb in her pocket, "Now let's go we have a job to do,"

Before Derek and Ada can move to the hallway door, they hear someone grab the doorknob. Ada quickly runs for a door to the side of the desk, Derek quickly following. As they run into a side room the door to the hall bursts open, Jacob pointing his gun at them and firing but his gun only clicks.

"Fuck, out of bullets!" They hear Jacob exclaim as Ada shuts the door behind them and locks. Looking around she sees a window and another door leading back out to the hall. She lifts the window up before heading to the door, Jacob now banging on the door. Ada peeks her head out into the hall, seeing Page running into Jacob's office. Her and Derek walk out into the hall, quickly closing the door behind them. As they walk up to Jacob's office door they hear Jacob break into the room they were just in.

Ada and Derek quickly take off down the hall, and soon hear Jacob and Page running after them. They run into a break room, Ada pulling up the window and the two heading out onto a fire escape. Ada pulls out her hookshot, shooting the building right next to the station and flying up towards the wall. She goes higher than the station's roof, reaching the wall on the other building. As she nears the wall she turns around and lets go of the trigger, kicking off the wall and landing onto the station roof. Derek quickly pulls up his hookshot and follows after. As he lands Ada looks at his hookshot.

"Here I thought the clones of me were going too far...Are you going to start dressing like me too?"

"No, I just figured this would be handy for my mission," Derek objects, trying to sound more angry than he really is. Speaking of which, what's my new mission?"

If it didn't increase my work load, I'd just have Luther infect him. Hm...maybe if he spends time stalking Page he won't be so obsessed with me...

"Luther wants us to seperate Jacob and Page to see how they'll do on their own. I'm ordered with keeping an eye on Jacob and you'll be watching Page," She lies, "Hopefully they'll stay far away from each other. Now we just have to figure out how we're gonna do that…" She turns around, looking at all the surrounding buildings as she tries to think of possible plans.

"...Ada," Derek says hesitantly.

"What?" She states, the fire in her now starting to erupt into an inferno.

"I, I just want you to know that, even though you did do a lot to kill me back in China...my feelings for you never died…" Her expression of anger softens a bit.

Are you fuċkɨnġ serious? God, this bastard really doesn't know how to take a hint does he?

"I don't know if I should feel sorry for you or laugh. I guess stabbing you and dropping you in an inferno of flames wasn't clear enough, so I'll tell you with words," She states as she walks up to Derek, "I don't love you, I never loved you, and I'll never love you. Ever. For a man whose so smart you just can't seem to understand that. You don't seem to be infected with the C-Virus anymore, but it's clear that your obsession still plagues your brain. Luther told me to keep tabs on you too and if he feels like you're falling out of line he'll turn you back into the monster you are, and I'll be tasked with having to kill you again, so stay focused,"

It brings her some joy seeing the disheartened look on his face. Maybe he's finally taking the hint.

"...A-Alright, so, what do we do..?" He asks weakly.

Before Ada can respond her phone starts to vibrate.

"Yes?" She asks as she answers her phone, "Alright, on it," She puts her phone away, "Luther's been listening in on Jacob's phone and got word of a zipline they're gonna use. They should be coming up soon, so I'm gonna head to the other side of the street and once the first one crosses I'll break the line," She checks her handgun before putting it away and grabbing her hookshot, "Here," She grabs something off her belt, "A flash grenade in case you screw up. Go hide somewhere, and once we find out who is on what side, we'll know where to go from there,"

The two talk for each other, too far for Ada to hear anything. Jacob puts on some kind of harness, attaching part of it to the zipline. As he comes across, Ada takes aim with her handgun. Jacob reaches the end and detaches himself from the zipline, and she takes her shot.

The sound of a gun shot fills the air as the zipline is cut in two, Ada ducks behind an ac unit. Page and Jacob soon start having a conversation over their radios.

"...Fine, we'll meet at the shipyard," Jacob states into his radio, "See that tall building over there with the glowing red antenna?"

"Y-Yeah I see it," Page replies.

"That's the direction the shipyard is in. Try your best to check in with me, I'll try to see if I can provide any cover fire for any zombies coming,"

Ada glances over the side to see Jacob has his back turned to her, facing the station, then sees Derek walking to stairwell entrance.

"Behind you!" Jacob suddenly yells, Derek darting into the stairwell out of sight.

That idiot's gonna get himself killed.

"What was it?" Page asks.

"A person,"

"A survivor?"

"Not likely, they're probably one of the two people who were in my office, be careful,"

"I-I will," Page soon heads into the stairwell.

Jacob puts his radio down and starts turning around, Ada quickly leaning back behind the unit.

He's almost as big as that military meathead in China. Probably best to watch from afar.

She hears the sound of a door opening then closing. After waiting some time, she peeks over, seeing Jacob standing at the stairwell entrance. His eyes look towards her as she quickly moves back behind the unit.

How did he…

She can feel her heart rate quicken a bit, something about the look in his eyes was...unsettling. She looks around for a place she can hookshot to, but rather than hear footsteps heading towards her, she hears the door to the stairwell open up again, a longer pause before closing. She quickly glances over, seeing Jacob no longer there.

He's clearly more than just a meathead, this'll be fun.

Ada gets up and heads over to the stairwell entrance, pausing for a minute before opening the door slowly. She peers inside, nothing but darkness waiting. What little light is able to get inside shows the end of the walkway, where some railing sits. Stepping inside and looking down the black abyss, she sees a few feet down moving further down, footsteps echoing throughout the whole thing. The light disappears as it moves underneath where she's standing, a door creaking open. She grabs a small flashlight attachment, putting it on her handgun and turning it on.

Cautiously, Ada makes her way down the stairs, reaching the door one floor down. She turns her flashlight off, the darkness enveloping her, before opening up the door. Some light from the fires in the streets outline cubicles. A shadowy figure, who is probably Jacob is walking between some of them. Ada enters the room, quietly shutting the door behind her as Jacob starts heading to the left. The air is somewhat warm from when the heater had been running.

Despite its warmth, the stillness of the air creates an uneasiness, the silence taking up the whole room. As Jacob reaches the other end of the room towards the windows overlooking the street, Ada sneaks up to a nearby cubicle, using it at cover. Leaning against the outer wall of it, she can look into the cubicle across from it, the light just bȧrėly strong enough for her to make out a body sitting in the chair. It's leaning forward, their head and part of their upper body laying on the desk as if they suddenly passed out.

The quietness is suddenly interrupted by Jacob's radio going off.

"I found the person," Page's voice says, "But they used a flash bang and escaped,"

"Did you get a good look at them?"Jacob asks as he brings his radio up to his mouth.

"Yeah. A man, probably early forties, black shirt, brown pants and boots. I swear I've seen his face somewhere…he looks like...Derek Simmons…"

"Derek Simmons? The guy responsible for the president's death all those years ago?"

Why am I not surprised he's already been found out? Did that corpse just move? No, it's completely still, must have just been the light.

"Y-Yeah...but it can't be him...he died during the outbreak in China," Page replies.

"Well whoever they are, they clearly don't want us to know,"

"What's the best way out of the police station? The fronts barricaded, and I'd rather not go down the fire escape to see the bull waiting for me,"

"There's a parking garage across the street, it's connected to the station by an underground tunnel, but that also barricades which activate alongside the front's barricades. You'll have to get to the security room down on the first floor and use an unlock card, the boss always kept it in his office on the ninth floor. Top left drawer of his desk, a hidden compartment under all the papers,"

"Got it,"

The return to silence is short lived when several mȯȧns can be heard as the sleeping zombies wake from the sound. The zombie in the cubicle across from Ada opens its eyes, which seem to glow red in the dark. They look directly at her as the zombie slowly rises to its feet along with several other zombies. Soon the once empty looking office floor is now filled with the undead. She quickly backs away, drawing her handgun, only to find another zombie behind her.

The blast of a shotgun bursts through the air, shortly followed by another, and then another, and then another. The zombie behind her is shot in the side of the head, and quickly falls to the ground. The one in front of her falls too shortly after. The sound of a zipper opening and closing alongside footsteps nearing her keep the silence from coming back.

She stands and aims her gun up at Jacob as he steps in front of her, flashlight shining in his face, his flashlight shining in her's.

"Here I thought you might've been a threat," Jacob states, unwavered by the gun, "You're actually kinda cute," He says with a ŀustful gaze, throwing Ada completely off, "Too bad I don't have a type," He adds, the look in his eyes going away as fast as it came as he heads for the stairwell. As he opens the door, his radio goes off again.

"Jacob, I found your boss," Page's voice says, "He's heavily mutated and moving through the vents-" The door behind him closes, stopping Ada from being able to hear the rest of the conversation. She stands there, annoyed that he got the drop on her and by the fact that she's impressed by someone like that.

"Guess I'll have to put him in his place," Ada mutters to herself as she heads for the stairwell, the zombies already recovering from their injuries.
