Murder Game 0: Genesis

[Kaykay]

"That was the joke, yeah." She deadpanned towards Lucio. Seeing however that a small group was forming she didn't have the heart to tell them now. Strength in numbers and all that. "Don't come crying to me if one of you ends up getting killed though."

With that they made their way towards the drug manufacturing area. After a long corridor and a sliding door they'd be at their destination.

The first thing that catches your attention is a series of tubes and cylinders with some strange, vile looking liquid going through it. Looking up further you'd see a huge factory like area with numerous conveyor belts shuffling different drugs from one place to another. You also notice a number of labs on either side of the factory, no doubt where the lab rats work on creating the next super drug for Umbrella to use.

No humans that you can see however, the conveyor belt seems to be fully automated with metallic arms doing the grunt work. You could also see some flight of stairs leading up to a scaffolding above the factory area. Despite the fact that you don't see a living soul anywhere...the group might get a feeling that someone's watching them...​

Well, the name of the place didn't lie.Looked like they were manufacturing drugs in the drug manufacturing area. Who would've guessed. Shirou thought of just tearing up the place until someone was forced out, but the idea was a pretty high risk one. If it were just him it could be a possibility, but if everyone else didn't agree it'd only spell disaster.

So to go find people the old fashioned way, he went up the stairs. Rather than scavenging around, it'd be faster to just figure things out by talking to people.

If there were any around, at least.

James Proudstar. -. Warpath

James followed the group heading towards DRUG MANUFACTURING. As everyone went into the room he stays near the door on guard.

"Folks, I am watching the door, just in case."

"You're right." she replied, smiling back before giving the man a kiss on his cheek.

"Consider it a thank you." she added, hand staying in his as her mood lifted considerably. Even if she was still a little down she knew she'd get better.



Azura was honestly uncomfortable from Cagliostro's flirtatious attempt towards the Scientist, possibly morr than the Scientist himself.

She glanced up at Joshua, pretty sure that saying 'we're trying to get to the Tesseract, do you happen to know where it is?' wouldn't go so well.

@Klutzy Ninja Kitty @The Myrmidon @Crimson Spartan @Minerva @Hana @Azuremoon @Crow @Sen @LuckycoolHawk9 @VirusStudies

Ada stepped forward. "This is an Umbrella audit. We're just here to make sure everything's going well." Ada said, giving her usual small smile. "What exactly is your research on? Just so we can send it to the higher-ups to make sure you're doing your job."

Walking into the Virus Studies, my eyes narrowed upon seeing the laboratory and hearing groans and moans coming from somewhere. The more I see, the more I'm reminded of humanity's golden age before they thought 'hey, let's roast our world with nukes!'. Labs like this were used to conduct tests on animals, that also included humans accused of 'crimes against humanity'.

They should have stuck to rats and mice. That's how there wouldn't have been terrorists blowing up said labs.

I shook my head and focused on looking around the room. There was no use in thinking about what could have been when it was already done.

The lab seemed like a Sci-fi operating room where they conducted their little experiments. The only man in the room was mumbling about a report. I caught corpses not responding to verbal stimulus and viruses showing the same pattern in other subjects. That made me knit my eyebrows.

Were we going to deal with zombies now? Oh boy, I can't wait to fight one of the most overused monsters in fiction ever!

However, when the man noticed us, he seemed confused and didn't run off to alert any nearby Umbrella goons or lock us in with the possible undead. I did tilt my head to the right because the man was pale and skinny, as if he hadn't been out in the sun or excrised for a while.

I also blinked when he apologized and offered to help us. Did Umbrella not sound the alarm?

Point for plot convenience

I coughed when the small-nosed anime girl tried flirting with him and people began asking questions.

These people know nothing about infiltration, do they?

The man adjusted his glasses and explained that, despite being new and being so involved in his research that he didn't know the layout of the facility, he was willing to help. I chuckled. That got rid of any threat from this guy, He honestly seemed that he had no idea who we were and Ada then stepped forward, saying we were with Umbrella and we were here to get a report.

I felt a wide, comical smile grow on my face.

Finally someone who knew a thing about infiltration! Or used the man's ignorance to our advantage though I think that might have been shot down.

Whatever the case, better play along.

"Yes, we're here to collect a report, Mr?" I asked, looking for a name tag.

@Klutzy Ninja Kitty @The Myrmidon @Takumi @Crimson Spartan @Minerva @Hana @Azuremoon @Crow @Sen @LuckycoolHawk9 @Hachiro Terra @virusstudies

"Heh, soft kisses from the woman of my affections?" Joshua chuckled, clearly enjoying the kiss as his hold on her hand became a little tighter. With a smile, he cocked a brow as he hummed, "Seems I have even more incentive to continue to appreciate our waltz together~"

At the scientist's question, he quieted down and realized he didn't have a place in mind to be heading to... Well, at least Ada had them covered. Quite the quick thinker.​

"Well, if you aren't capable of telling us which way is left or right because you're focus on your research, you can tell us about that. What's this virus all about?"

Road stepped away from her party stepping in solitude closer to the man, leaning in a bit and with her arms folded behind her. The look was meant to seem friendly a pleasant, but Road was through taking chances. Leon and Claire were one thing - they weren't with Unbrella. This guy was not their friend, and she wasn't going to treat him as such. Two candles popped into existence above each of her shoulders, pointing at the scientist in a holded threat, as Road came ever closer.

"My name is Road - what's yours? I'd like to address my questions to you personally.".

There was venom in her tone a threat that was not spoken, but pleanty evident. She wasn't going to be the monster that betray her comrades, but she would trust no agent of Umbrella, no matter how daft. Though she would do her best not to kill him. Which, honestly, was an improvement for her. Maybe out of context, it would seem Caglio was the good cop, and Road was the bad cop.

@Hana @Sen @Klutzy Ninja Kitty @Crow @VirusStudies #MobilePost​

"The path is yours to climb, Joshua. And even though my path is stained in red, I will stay by your side until our performance comes to an end, if you will allow it." she replied, removing the veil she kept on through most of her time here and putting it somewhere safe on her person.



Azura, though glad for Ada's quick save grew a bit wary of how the Scientist would react to this. Though she hoped for the best.

@Klutzy Ninja Kitty @The Myrmidon @Crimson Spartan @Minerva @Hana @Azuremoon @Crow @Sen @LuckycoolHawk9 @Archwar @VirusStudies

"Our group is simply lost, sir. We would like to ask you for directions, since we are also new to this organization. My name is Hakuei Ren, it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance."

Hakuei was, for all intents and purposes, a good speaker when she had to be one. Even if she was using half-truths right now. They really could use directions, or a general idea of the place. Maybe they could also learn more about Umbrella like this?

Though considering their odd mismatched attire, and the lack of uniforms, it was sadly not that simple to convince this man they were just new recruits or something of the like... That wasn't even considering the more unique appearances of other people in this group.

"Virus Studies is not our division, but we have heard of this and we also wish to learn more about your work." She smiled gently at him, hoping to at least... Lighten the unease he was feeling from the more forward advances from Cagliostro, and Road's pointed questions.

@Azuremoon @Klutzy Ninja Kitty @Sen @Crow @Takumi @The Myrmidon @Gands @Crimson Spartan @LuckycoolHawk9 @Virus Studies

"..." Jaffar always had a habit of simply appearing out of thin air as he was now standing directly behind Azura.

"...I would not worry over what happened.... Some have done much worse while not being controlled..."

The way Jaffar spoke...implied that he was referring to himself when he talked about others doing much worse without being controlled.


@Klutzy Ninja Kitty @The Myrmidon @Takumi @Minerva @Hana @Azuremoon @Crow @Sen @LuckycoolHawk9 @Archwar @VirusStudies​

The man narrowed his eyes at Ada, seeming skeptical of her words. "Is that so? May I see some form of identification then? Forgive me for being suspicious, but to be honest you don't look much like the others individuals who work around here." He paused unsure before deciding to give his name when they would ask of it. "Milton Mamet," he replied, uneasy after hearing the intensity of Road's tone. Easily intimidated by her, his shoulders tensed.

"If I may ask, what devision are all of you from? As I said before, your group looks different than the others," he said to Hakuei before anxiously glancing back in Road's direction. "N-Not that I don't mind sharing some of my findings with all of you. I haven't found much... yet... but it's only a matter of time now that I have the proper equipment to do so. You see, I come from a world much like this one with a virus that's infected humanity. Back home we called them biters, and they're fairly similar to the subjects here. Because I was versed in researching that similar virus, Umbrella figured I could be of use here studying what they like to call the T-Virus."

Nodding silently to Riesbyfe, Miku began to observe the area and who was going where. Seeing some folks were already beginning to head up to the scaffolding above, she figured her efforts were best found on the ground floor.

Gingerly making her way further into the room, allowing anyone to tag along should they want to, Miku made her way over to the conveyor belts of machines working mindlessly away. Curiously she looked around them, seeing if there was anything of note.​

@CrunchyCHEEZIT @Klutzy Ninja Kitty @Gummi Bunnies @Kaykay @Hospes @Jeremi @Josh M @Mami Tomoe @LuckycoolHawk9 @DrugManufacturing

"This place already gives me the creeps..."

Blake grumbled a bit upon giving a quick examination of the area. He had no idea what was being made here, but he had a feeling that it wasn't anything pleasant if used against them in some way. The itching feeling that someone or something was watching them clawed at his head, and because of that, he didn't go forward with Jason to check up on what was on the scaffolding for now. Until the A-okay to go up there was made clear to them. They had to be careful after all, they were in enemy territory...

@Atomyk @CrunchyCHEEZIT @Klutzy Ninja Kitty @Otto @Kaykay @Hospes @Jeremi @Josh M @Mami Tomoe @LuckycoolHawk9 @Kaide` @DrugManufacturing​

"Sure, let's look around," Senna said, eying up the area with curiosity of a cat. She paused to glance back and smile at Blake, teasingly extending her hand out to him. "It give you the creeps, huh? Are you scared? Maybe you should hold my hand until you feel better," she said with a wink before dropping her hand back down at her side.

The girl then began to stroll around casually, no sense of fear or dread noticeable at all in her movements. If anything, the others might be able to tell how bored she was by how much she fidgeted. She rocked back on her heels a few times before stepping from side to side repeatedly, humming under her breath. "Say, maybe I need a better angle." Senna then proceeded to jump on top of one of the conveyor belts, not much concern for the objects shuffling around under her feet. "Much better! My head always feels clearer when I'm standing in a higher place," she said, spreading out her arms.

"Proper equipment huh~? as opposed to improper equipment~?" Cagliostro gleed. "So, those biters rampage your world, and now you live in this one~? If you can't salvage your own world from zombies, what makes Umbrella think you can salvage another from their zombies~?"

Chapter Three
"Viral Uprising"

The Story So Far

Warpath was revealed to be innocent, and the group was forced to proceed with the knowledge that at least one among them was a killer. There was no choice, for Wanda's power needed time to regenerate.

On the next floor, the group split into three. Some went to an area called Experimental Applications, while others went to an area called Live Storage, and the rest stayed behind to protect Wanda from harm. In Experimental Applications, the group found a strange area where Umbrella scientists were testing the ability of creatures versus live targets. The group ended up meeting with Claire Redfield, saving her from a room filled with traps. In Live Storage, the group ended up rescuing Leon Scott Kennedy, but also managed to have an unfortunate run-in with monsters known as Lickers.

The group who stayed behind ended up attacked by a mysterious and powerful creature. It easily killed a number of the group, forcing the rest to escape while Clark and Cullen distracted it.

Everyone ended up meeting in front of the lounge, where Claire and Leon said the entrance to the next floor could be found. Unfortunately for the group, more murder occurred there. Naomi and Little Guy were killed, and with Wanda's powers about to regenerate, the group stopped to investigate and vote on who she should check next. After lots of arguing and vote switching, the group eventually settled on Azura.

Meanwhile, Alice was given a task by Albert Wesker to investigate his office for mysterious reasons. When she got back, she found Naomi and Little Guy returned to life...

Cullen, having fallen into silence as he leaned up against the pool table watching everyone yell back and forth, sighed deeply. Standing up straight, he cleared his throat to grab everyone's attention. "Okay, now that we've had our arguments, our pity parties, and our dramatic vote swings, I'd say it's long past due to call it." He pointed a finger Wanda's way. "Just get this over with before that creature finds us."

Though Wanda had been unsure with all the vote switching who to check, she figured Cullen was right. All she could do was examine who had the most votes at this current time, and that happened to be Azura.

"Let's hope we're right this time," Wanda said to the group. "My powers are only just now coming back to me." As she stepped up next to Azura, her hands glowed with a red aura liked before. The woman's head was bathed in red for just a moment, long enough for Wanda's eyes to widen.

"This one, Azura... she is guilty. She has betrayed us."

As Wanda announced the truth about Azura, Clark flinched. Turning his head down, Clark spoke to Azura.

"Why? You don't seem like someone who just kills people."

"I suppose one truly cannot judge a book by its cover," Riesbyfe simply said, narrowing her eyes at the revealed Traitor. She took a step forward toward Azura, but stopped herself, deciding to see what else Wanda had to say.

Wanda in question shook her head. She held up a hand to silence any reaction to the revelation. "She is not herself. She is being controlled... and I have just enough power to sever that connection."

Wanda's hands glowed red once again, but this time so did her eyes. She took Azura's head in her hands forcefully, and both women cried out. A bright red flash enveloped them, but it was gone in only a few seconds. Wanda stepped away from Azura, breathing heavily. "It's done. She's free."

"Hey, uh..." Leon really wasn't sure what just happened, so he held up a hand. "Nice trick, there."

Claire was still looking pale, and she sounded quiet as she spoke up to ask, "Do you know who was controlling her? Was it Umbrella?"

Wanda shook her head. "Perhaps... I don't really know. The chips were deactivated, and yet... It did not feel like technology, but I can't say for sure. Who else but Umbrella, after all?"

"Whatever the case," Cullen said impatiently, "we have to go."

Claire nodded, gesturing to the exit of the lounge. Both she and Leon led the group ahead, eventually coming across a flight of stairs that led to the floor above. Here, a sign indicated they were on the Research Floor, and that the floor was comprised of two sections: Virus Studies and Drug Manufacturing.

Claire and Leon looked momentarily lost at the entrance to the floor, and when asked where they were supposed to go from here, Leon just shrugged. "I guess we both figured it would be obvious from here," Claire said slowly. "One of these Umbrella workers really should have a map..."

"I for one am not going back down to that other floor," Adam said, almost a bit too loudly. He honestly seemed pretty freaked out. "With that crazy ass monster down there, we're all better off staying up on this floor. I also suggest we don't sit here like fucking chumps like last time."

"Right..." Wanda looked up at the sign. "Then half of us should go to one of these areas, while the other half checks out the other..."

After all that has happened, Tengen thought over his options. With tye options given, he figured it'd be better to go to Drug Manufacturing. Once there, he proceeded to inspect the objects that the metal arms were moving. Of course, he'd love to do some exploring afterwards, but for now, he wanted to get a better understanding of what he was dealing with.

@LuckycoolHawk9 @The Myrmidon @Takumi @Crimson Spartan @Minerva @Hana @Azuremoon @Crow @Sen @Archwar @VirusStudies​

"Milton. Mind if I call you Milk? I'd say 'Milt' but, frankly, it sounds stupid and Milk is just... funny."

Road now could not be in a more immediate proximity to Milton - close enough that her chin nearly rested on his upper chest as a single hand rose onto his stomach, almost sensually. Once he was done speaking, Road took a moment to file everything in her mind. Something that took priority was that he too was from a different world. So Umbrella had employed help from other universes as well. Interesting. She would be willing to bet that they're success in their projects hinged their chances of returning home.
What else she noted was that the virus existed in his world too. That settled it. This virus was like the Akuma virus. It was a reoccurring theme that took place in multiple faces of the multiverse.

"Well, Milk, that is a very good attitude to have. Please keep that sharing demeanor. I promise it will keep you safe. Now, tell me, and I can't enunciate the importance of how little I want to repeat myself; tell me in great detail what you've learned about this T-virus... and about the virus in your world. I need to know as much about them as possible."

Clearly, Road had gone a bit rogue. She was not asking about direction, or information about the facility. Or where the safe that held the Tesseract was. She just seemed strangely interested in the virus.

The princess's smile turned a tad bit intense as she nodded to Alucard's words, a momentary flash of mirth appearing in her eyes as she glanced at the dhampir. Was he really playing along, now?

"Indeed. I suppose you could say we were hired for our rather different specialties, Milton Mamet."

And that, in itself, was ironically almost true on its own. Umbrella had tried to snatch them up for their skills and powers, after all.

"As you can see, some of us are not accustomed to normal methods of sharing information." That was an acknowledgement of Cagliostro and Road's rather pointed questioning, but she merely gave a resigned-seeming half-smile to Milton, as if she was a long-suffering witness of her comrade's antics.

"I would like to reassure you, though, that we are normally quite lenient and we would appreciate it if you share what work you do in this division. So please, we look forward to your cooperation."

Jason had since sobered up and decided to head to Drug Manufacuring. He remained quiet throughout the trip there and stood in the back, making it less obvious that he was even present. Upon entering, Jason looked up at the scaffolding area above the factory.

"I'm heading up there." He said bluntly before putting his visor back on and tugging out his grapnel gun. Jason then grappled up onto the scaffolding to save him the trip. When he reached his destination, he began to look around for anything interesting.

After the votes were all in order, and Wanda's powers were finally back for the moment, Azura was checked, and sure enough, she was... ... A traitor? Suddenly, Schala felt alot better about having changed her vote; it seemed that while the chips in their heads were no longer active, there had been someone controlling Azura's mind.

This meant there there be others under some sort of influence too, or perhaps even willingly going with this, but whatever the case... She figured she'd worry more about that once she found the Tesseract. They still had a task to accomplish after all.

Seeing that there were two ways to go, she ended up just following Blake, and the others that accompanied him into the drug manufacturing area. Virus research sounded intriguing too, but, on the other hand... She wasn't in a hurry to risk getting herself infected by some nasty Umbrella created virus.

Even if drug manufacturing probably wasn't too much better, at the very least she'd get a good idea what other things Umbrella has been working on besides viruses.

However, as she entered the room, looking around, she couldn't seem to shake this feeling that they were being watched... And perhaps it wasn't unfounded either, Riesbyfe was right; Umbrella was likely aware that they were here, and would definitely stop at nothing to kill them.

Giving Blake a brief look, almost tempted to say something to him... She let out a soft sigh instead, not seeming to be able to think of any usefull to say. So instead, she decided to head up the stairs leading to the scaffolding overlooking the area.

This way, she could get a better look at the place, and hopefully identify whatever might be giving her that strange feeling, like she was being watched or something. Perhaps it was just her paranoia getting to her... But she had to be sure.

Besides, even if she wasn't able to identify any particular reason for why she felt like she was being watched, at least she'd be able to get a good look at the place, and maybe figure out something usefull from that vantagepoint.
​

Well, the name of the place didn't lie.Looked like they were manufacturing drugs in the drug manufacturing area. Who would've guessed. Shirou thought of just tearing up the place until someone was forced out, but the idea was a pretty high risk one. If it were just him it could be a possibility, but if everyone else didn't agree it'd only spell disaster.

So to go find people the old fashioned way, he went up the stairs. Rather than scavenging around, it'd be faster to just figure things out by talking to people.

If there were any around, at least.

​

Before Jason and the others could reach the top of the scaffolding he could see a missile heading towards the group at large. An explosion rocked the area and as the dust settled the group found the bodies of Rock and Revvy, or what was left of them at least.

The cause for the carnage roared in defiance before making an escape through one of the doors on the scaffolding. If Jason went after he'd find no trace of the monster. It is as if it vanished into thin air.

"Everyone okay, besides the ringing ears?" 18 asked the group still around.​

"Sure, let's look around," Senna said, eying up the area with curiosity of a cat. She paused to glance back and smile at Blake, teasingly extending her hand out to him. "It give you the creeps, huh? Are you scared? Maybe you should hold my hand until you feel better," she said with a wink before dropping her hand back down at her side.

The girl then began to stroll around casually, no sense of fear or dread noticeable at all in her movements. If anything, the others might be able to tell how bored she was by how much she fidgeted. She rocked back on her heels a few times before stepping from side to side repeatedly, humming under her breath. "Say, maybe I need a better angle." Senna then proceeded to jump on top of one of the conveyor belts, not much concern for the objects shuffling around under her feet. "Much better! My head always feels clearer when I'm standing in a higher place," she said, spreading out her arms.

Senna's disruption caused the capsules on the belt to start flying here and there causing one of the nearby arms to come and inspect what was breaking the chain.

After all that has happened, Tengen thought over his options. With tye options given, he figured it'd be better to go to Drug Manufacturing. Once there, he proceeded to inspect the objects that the metal arms were moving. Of course, he'd love to do some exploring afterwards, but for now, he wanted to get a better understanding of what he was dealing with.

@Jeremi @Drug Manufacturing

The particular item that the arm was sorting were medicinal capsules of some sort with Umbrella's colors on them. Who could say what they were used for. Knowing Umbrella they probably weren't to cure headaches.

Twisted Fate was quite surprised by this turn of events. He was expecting the revealed traitor to be executed, but it seemed that wouldn't be the case. Azura was being controlled somehow, so it would only be fair that she wouldn't be executed. It really bugged him that no justice could be done other than finding who or what was controlling her.

"Huh. Definitely wasn't expecting that."

He decided to go to Drug Manufacturing.​

Upon arriving, he immediately felt that something was wrong. The area looked safe, but something told him that it was merely a facade. Someone was watching. Typically, he was the one watching people, not the other way around. Two can play at that game...

Twisted Fate focused his inner power and attempted to summon a fiery eye above whoever was watching the group. This eye would relay information to Twisted Fate. He would make sure that it was invisible so that whoever was watching them wouldn't realize that they were being watched as well.

​

Kujou felt like the traitor should have, well, been a little bit more pressed than she was, but she'd been controlled after all. It couldn't be helped, and she certainly wasn't going to press the matter further. Following Ali's advice, she went along with Twisted Fate and some others to the Drug Manufacturing place.

Not knowing what to do but also not wanting to ruin Twisted Fate's concentration, Kujou remained silent. Quiet, quiet.

"Eep!"

The sudden explosion of a missile made that effort both impossible and meaningless.

"I-is everyone alright?" she asked worriedly, concern apparent on her face.

Before Jason and the others could reach the top of the scaffolding he could see a missile heading towards the group at large. An explosion rocked the area and as the dust settled the group found the bodies of Rock and Revvy, or what was left of them at least.

The cause for the carnage roared in defiance before making an escape through one of the doors on the scaffolding. If Jason went after he'd find no trace of the monster. It is as if it vanished into thin air.​

Sadly, it seemed that Twisted Fate arrived a bit too late. By the time he detected the monster, it had already shot a missile. Upon realizing the deaths of two more people, along with mysteriously losing sight of the monster, he shouted in rage.

"God damn it!"

He threw the card that he was holding toward the ground, causing a small patch of the ground to crumble. He stood there for a few moments.

"Today has been nothin' but a bunch of failures on my part. I'm always a second too late, or simply unable to do anythin' properly. This ain't like me."

He put his hand to his forehead and relaxed a little bit. As much as he wanted to pursue the behemoth, he couldn't. Somehow, the eye that he summoned disappeared when the creature escaped. He would exhaust himself too much if he attempted to use his ultimate ability again.

"These guys ain't gonna get the best of me. I never lose. I've just been dealt bad cards, that's all. I know that later, the deck will be stacked against them. I just need to wait for the river card.*"

The missile in question caused Jason to fall mid-air as he was grappling up onto the scaffolding.

"Ah shi-" Jason said before he inevitably hit the ground. As Jason stumbled when he stood up, he eventually saw the bodies of Rock and Revvy. Instead of going after the source of the attack, Jason simply knelt down next to their bodies and shook his head.

"Damn..." He whispered before closing their eyes with his fingers. Unlike the other deaths that had happened, these two actually affected him. Mainly because Rock had shown genuine care for him earlier, and that was something that Jason hadn't seen in a long time.

The man narrowed his eyes at Ada, seeming skeptical of her words. "Is that so? May I see some form of identification then? Forgive me for being suspicious, but to be honest you don't look much like the others individuals who work around here." He paused unsure before deciding to give his name when they would ask of it. "Milton Mamet," he replied, uneasy after hearing the intensity of Road's tone. Easily intimidated by her, his shoulders tensed.

"If I may ask, what devision are all of you from? As I said before, your group looks different than the others," he said to Hakuei before anxiously glancing back in Road's direction. "N-Not that I don't mind sharing some of my findings with all of you. I haven't found much... yet... but it's only a matter of time now that I have the proper equipment to do so. You see, I come from a world much like this one with a virus that's infected humanity. Back home we called them biters, and they're fairly similar to the subjects here. Because I was versed in researching that similar virus, Umbrella figured I could be of use here studying what they like to call the T-Virus."

@LuckycoolHawk9 @The Myrmidon @Takumi @Crimson Spartan @Minerva @Hana @Azuremoon @Crow @Sen @Archwar @VirusStudies​

Ada smiled again. "Oh, did no one tell you we were coming?" She asked. "Well, I guess I'll just have to talk to someone about that. But no, we don't have badges on us."

In her mind, Ada thought for a moment. The T-Virus, huh? So that was still under study here. Hell, Umbrella still existed as Umbrella and not as a terrorist organization, so depending on what happened...

"Anyway, please continue." She said. Her eyes scanned the desks, looking for something she might be able to take.

Schala didn't even have a time to cast a spell before a mysterious missile came their way, taking out two of their group, and the creature who had fired it disappeared through one of the doors on the scaffolding.

When she was asked she was okay, by at least two different people... She nodded briefly after a moment, but, didn't appear to be satisfied with staying where she was.

Instead, she tried to make her way up to the scaffolding once more, before she stopped where she was, to listen for any suspicious sounds. Though the creature had seemed to have up and vanished, she had a distinct feeling that it would be back, considering that Umbrella wouldn't be satisfied until their entire group was dead...

Which meant that it was likely that sooner or later, it would surface again, and this time... She would be prepared.​

Schala didn't see nor hear anything out of the ordinary as she inspected the scaffolding area. The only thing she heard was the sounds of the machines down bellow.

Jumping in surprise, she looked towards the now settling dust from the rocket explosion... only to see two more dead. Looking very tense, she watched as the creature fled the way it had come. Were they just being picked off like sitting ducks at this point?​

"... let's keep going."

There was so much of this happening over and over again. Seeing death happen to them, whether it be from misfortune or by the hand of someone betraying them. It disgusted him. Even so, they couldn't let these happenings bring their spirits down, because they still had something to fulfill in the end for the sake of everyone. The last thing he wanted to happen was for everything they've worked on to go and crumble down into nothing. So, Blake didn't say anything else but to vocally remind himself that they had something to complete here.

@CrunchyCHEEZIT @Klutzy Ninja Kitty @Gummi Bunnies @Kaykay @Hospes @Jeremi @Josh M @Mami Tomoe @LuckycoolHawk9 @Josh M @Otto @Yang Lee @thatguyinthestore @Drug Manufacturing

James was watching the back door, the way they all wandered into this place when that thing ran in and shot off a large rocket and ran out. In the ensuing noise and smoke, two more of them were killed off. Who they were, what he had previously thought of them, didn't matter. They were on his side and now they were dead. In a brief fit of rage he slammed one of his daggers into the wall near the door where he stood. He took a long deep breath, he didn't think anyone was watching. The big Apache took a long deep breath the way Xavier taught him all those years ago and calmed himself down. No one else was hurt aside from those two. It was more than enough, it still hurt. He watched now as everyone recovered. He remained on station, guarding the back door.
