• Five Hours Later



    “Lucile what do you mean it worked” I asked

    “Everyone else who got injected with the project became one of those things when they should have become something like you have, who would have thought that the bio-weapon could have spread as quick as this one has”

    “How long was it?” I interrupted

    “Just five hours ago and now look already it’s like the end has already happened” she answered. Everywhere we went homes were boarded up, bodies and blood drenched every corner and the sky was darker than the depths shadow. While we were walking on to a place that would hopefully be safe I was telling Lucile that I have a connection with Raziel, Lucile was then about to answer back to me about what type of connection I meant when we heard a young girl’s cry from beneath some burnt rubble. After at least an hour of moving the rubble we got the girl out she then cowered and tried to crawl away thinking that we were one of those things “Don’t worry we won’t hurt you” Lucile said as she tried to calm her down.



    The girl told us that her name was Arenel and that she had escaped from her mother and more of the infected as they were chasing her “They wanted to kill me” she said while trying not to cry.

    “Don’t worry Arenel” I said “I won’t let anything happen to you” as I said this Arenel gave me a hug and said “Don’t ever leave me okay” I just couldn’t say no as she was young and innocent that I couldn’t leave her all alone. Both me and Lucile told Arenel that we were going to find a safe place and protect her no matter what. We were all walking until we stopped by a supermarket Arenel mentioned that she was hungry so we walked to get something to eat Arenel was telling us how she had escaped the thousands of infected people that were chasing her. A few hours later we were all a sound asleep there was no noise except for the rain thundering on the roof of the shop I was just about to go back to sleep until I heard movement from inside the shop.



    I drew my gun and said “Who’s there, show yourself or I shoot” and a person walked out of a darkened corner and said exhaustedly “Please help”. The man looked familiar I thought that Lucile might know him as he wore the same lab coat as her and also like Lucile’s the same emblem was on his coat. In the morning I showed the man who arrived last night to Lucile, she said that it was professor Malarky I told Lucile that I was going to check up on Arenel so that I could give her and Malarky time to talk, “How are today Arenel?” I asked her “I’m very good today Mr. 26” she replied “Mr. 26 are we going to be safe?”

    “Yes of course we will, don’t you worry I’ll make sure nothing hurts you” I told her with a smile. In the distance I could hear Lucile whispering to Malarky that the RAZIEL project had worked and that I was the success.



    “Professor” I called out “I was wondering if you could tell me more about the CHAOS project?” I added

    “Why certainly 26, Chaos was the first DNA that we used to make a bio-weapon with but sadly all of the research disappeared along with the head of our department Wesker, some of us say that he took the project for himself and ran away, but I say different Wesker was never like that. After that happened we then moved onto the DNA that resides in your blood right now” answered the professor “If you need more info I suggest you find Wesker” said Malarky. After I was told this I decided that we all move to a another place just in case more of the infected people that was brought on by this sick experiment arrive I now wish that I didn’t say that because as soon as these words left my mouth we were surrounded again but there was more than last time I ordered the others to stay inside and lock the door so that Raziel could stop these fowl beasts from getting to Arenel and the rest. Again the pain in my stomach grew so that I knew it was his time to take over and unleash destruction as he did in the last battle against them. As thousands became hundreds, hundreds became tens in an instant I then knew the battle is near an end until the remaining ten was shot down from out of nowhere, curious Raziel started looking around “Who dares interfere in my fight” he Raziel as he saw a mysterious man run “Hmmm whoever you are, your mine.



    Raziel then gave chase after the hooded figure he was on an opposite side of buildings to him so he gained a little more speed so he could be in front then disappeared through a wall like as if it was shadow; thud! Went the man as Raziel clothes lined him to the cold rugged floor from inside the wall “What did you do that for?” Shouted the man as he woke

    “Why did you help?” Said Raziel angrily

    “I felt like I needed to help you” the man continued “Wesker said that there’d be survivors” Lucile than said

    “Wesker so he’s alive”

    “What’s your name stranger?” asked Raziel the man replied with “If you must know its Carlos.”



    “Are we going yet Mr. 26?” Said the friendly voice of Arenel when we was back at the same supermarket just then her expression changed “Arenel are you okay? Asked Malarky “Daddy!!!” she screamed and ran into Carlos’ arms

    “Hey Carlos didn’t know Arenel was your daughter.” I told him, and then I told everyone that we will stay one more night in this place as the night swept over the sky like a blanket of darkness. While everyone was sleeping, I decided to board up the shop so that nothing could get in as we slept. A while later after I had finished Carlos came from down one of the aisles, walked over to me and thanked me for keeping his daughter safe while he wasn’t around. “Your welcome Carlos, come we should get some sleep now” I said “Oh and Carlos can you tell me where to find Wesker?” Carlos then said

    “Sorry 26, I can’t he was finding a new place because the last one got destroyed.”

    “It’s okay and thank you for letting me know” I replied as we both went to the back room of the shop and slept for the night.
