Resident Evil: Vengeance 12 ?Etelica

It's head has no facial features except for one large bulging eye that stares at them with its feral gaze. Another, larger eye sits on the top left of its head. Parts of its body have exposed muscle, the red s.h.i.+ning in the fire's light. Despite the distance between them and it, the thing seems to tower over them, it must be at least seven feet tall. As the the creature reaches the ground, the legs on its arm have finished turning into forearm, a ma.s.sive clawed hand at the end.

"Please tell me I'm not seeing things," Page states.

"I wish we were," Jacob replies, "So, how about we start running?"

"What?! We can't let this thing leave the market!"

"Fine," Jacob states with annoyance. Page starts shooting the creature. It's completely unfazed and continues to walk up to them, now only about a yard away from them.

"Aim for the eyes!" Jacob exclaims before he aims and shoots at the creature. A couple bullets. .h.i.t the eye on its face, but not enough to hurt it. The creature suddenly starts to move faster as it thrusts its claw at them. They both jump out of the way and manage to avoid it, but they end up on opposite sides of the creature. The creature turns to Page.

"Run!" Jacob exclaims, "Find some high ground to shoot it from! I'll distract it down here!"

"Alright!"

Page continues to back up as the creature approaches her, frantically looking around for a nearby place she could go to. The call tower's too tall. The building next to it. It's maybe a foot taller than the thing, that should work. Now to get past the thing.

Before she can come up with a plan, Jacob shoots at the creature from behind. He manages to shoot it enough to at least draw its attention. She takes the opportunity to run past the creature as Jacob reloads his gun. Page slows down as she reaches the building, and something shoots the wall an inch in front of her at head level. She hurries into the building, running out of view of the gla.s.s doors.

Before she can catch her breath, she realizes the dead bodies on the floor as they start to get up. There's at least five of them. She hurries past them, running to an employees only room. Before she can make it to the door one of the zombies grabs her ankle. She shoots it in the arm and it lets go. Barging through the door she slams it shut and locks it. Looking around the room, she sees a ladder leading up to the roof. As she climbs the ladder, zombies start to bang on the door.

Reaching the top she pushed on the cover, but something's keeping it from opening all the way.

"This can't be happening," Page mutters to herself as she presses on the cover with all her force. The banging on the door starts to get louder as more zombies press their weight against it. Page climbs up a couple steps, having to hunch over a bit so she can fit. Using her upper body, she manages to push the cover open, pus.h.i.+ng off whatever was covering it. She gets on the roof, seeing that a large suit case was blocking the cover. She closes it before hurrying over to the edge of the roof, seeing the creature swinging at Jacob once more. He barely manages to avoid it.

A sparkle of light shows up in the corner of her eye. She backs up just in time to avoid being shot. She backs up so some buildings in the market cover her. There's no way for her to communicate with Jacob. She watches as Jacob runs into the market, the creature running after him.

Son of a b.i.t.c.h! Did he trick me and get away!?

She hurries over to the other end of the roof, seeing if there's anything she can jump down onto. A dumpster. Bette than nothing. She jumps off, landing on the dumpster with a loud thud, alerting nearby zombies of her presence. She gets off the dumpster, running down an alleyway. Reaching the end of it, she barges through a doorway to her right, entering a building that's only started to catch on fire. Rus.h.i.+ng through the smoke she goes through the front door. Entering the main street she's behind the creature as it continues to pursue Jacob.

She hurries over to a nearby stand for cover from the roofs before she takes aim at the thing. Holding her breath, she takes the shot. It hits the thing dead in the eye on its head, causing it to stumble forward a bit, the part of its head around the eye falling off. As the creature regains its footing Page runs past it and to Jacob.

"You're not getting away that easily!" She yells angrily.

"Getting away? I was trying to not get torn to pieces!" Jacob shouts back, "I don't think this creature knows that I'm suppose to stay in a twenty feet radius of you!"

As they continue to shoot at the creature, Page runs out of bullets. Jacob reaches into the bag and hands her another magazine.

"There's only five left!" He states. Jacob notices a nearby building starting to lean forward from fire damage. Some burning beams are the only things keeping it up.

"The beams, shoot them when it gets close!"

They aim their guns at the beams as they continue to back up. A couple more steps and it'll be in the dead center.

Two more.

One more.

Bang!

They shoot the beams which crumble to pieces, the building falling forward. The creature is smashed by the two story building as the flames erupt from the added fuel.

"That should have weakened it," Jacob states as he reloads his shotgun. Page pushes him to the side as they avoid another shot from the roof. Jacob looks at where the bullet landed, "We should deal with that sniper while the thing's still down," He hurries over to a building on the side where the bullet came from, shooting some zombies in his path.

"What makes you think it's not dead?" Page asks as she catches up to him.

"Have you read any records of a B.O.W. like that dying so easily?"

"Good point,"

Entering the building, two zombies are feeding on a corpse. The two hurry past them, not bothering to waste their ammo and head up the stairs. Reaching the second floor the stairs to the third are almost completely missing. They're forced to head down a hallway with several open doorways on both sides. They quickly check all the rooms for any zombies and a way up. As they pa.s.s by a room they hear something crash down behind them. Rechecking the room they see the roof of the room has collapsed, the burning floor from above now starting to set the rest of the room on fire.

They hurry past the room and reach the end of the hall. The room to the left has windows leading to the main street. The room on the right has a window leading to the roof of another building.

"There," Page states as she hurries over to the window. She opens the window and goes through. Jacob takes off the bag and hands it to her. As she takes the bag they hear the roof of the room start to creak.

"Move!" Jacob exclaims as he takes a step back. Page quickly steps to the side as Jacob dives through the window, the roof collapsing down on the room. Jacob gets up and takes the bag back, dusting himself off.

"There!" He suddenly shouts as he points to a roof above them as someone runs across it. They run along the rooftops as they pursue the person who slowly starts to get farther and farther away from them. There's only two more buildings before they reach a branching path of the main street, the street below filled with zombies. Page and Jacob have to stop when they reach the end, but the figure leaps off the roof, pulling out some sort of gun.

They shoot a metal telephone pole with it, a tether coming out of the gun and attaching to it. The person swings over the street, diving through a window in a building across the street and disappearing into it.

"Hopefully he'll stay off out backs for now, f.u.c.ker," Jacob states as they stare at the broken window. They suddenly hear several zombies shouting as something attacks them. They turn to see a zombie covered in burnt skin attacking another zombie. The burnt zombie grabs the other zombie's head on both sides, and crunches the skull. The body goes limp and falls to the floor.

The burnt zombie plunges an arm into the back of the corpse, which starts to suddenly meld onto the burnt zombie. The corpse, now brownish-green goo stuff starts to move along the burnt zombie's body.

"That's the f.u.c.ker from the plane!" Jacob shouts as they run over to the side of the roof facing the street.

"I-It's using the other zombie, to make itself stronger!" Page exclaims.

"Well let's kill it before it can get more!"

Jacob starts firing at the zombie, grabbing it's attention. As him and Page shoot at it, the thing holds up its arm, the goo stuff moving onto it and forming a s.h.i.+eld, an eyeball emerging onto it. It quickly runs into the horde of zombies, using them as cover.

"Oh no you don't!" Jacob yells before jumping off the building, rolling onto the floor below.

"Jacob!" Page exclaims.

"Stay up there, shoot it from above! Don't worry about me, I'm not going anywhere!" He replies as he holds his shotgun up to the horde of zombies that take notice of him.

"O-Oaky!" Page replies as she scans the group for the burnt zombie. She sees a large eye in the group and takes aim. She shoots, but misses as the thing suddenly moves. A nearby zombie falls down, sinking into the sea of other zombies.

"It's in the middle!" Page shouts to Jacob as he shoots some nearby zombies.

"On it!" He replies, looking for a way to get into the horde. He doesn't get past three zombies before the sound of a chainsaw starts to fill the air. The group of zombies quickly becomes mowed down as the burnt zombie tears through them with it's left arm, which is now an organic chainsaw made of bones and organs all covered in the green skin. An eyeball sits on the "engine" part of the chainsaw.

The creature starts charging at Jacob. As Jacob backs up and shoots at it, the creature holds up its s.h.i.+eld arm. Jacob stops moving backwards and stands his ground, focusing on the eye on its s.h.i.+eld. Page shoots at the thing as the distance between it and Jacob quickly closes. He shoots and jumps to the side as the thing charges past him, stumbling a bit as the s.h.i.+eld starts to fall apart. A little less than half of the s.h.i.+eld remains, another, smaller, eye emerging on it. The creature spots some nearby corpses, plunging its chainsaw arm into one of them. Jacob hurries over to the creature, Page running along the roofs to get closer as well. He shoots at the creature, but it's already melted the corpse, the goo running along its body and going onto the s.h.i.+eld.

The s.h.i.+eld already fully regenerates by the time Jacob gets within a couple feet of it. Page sees a tarp down below and jumps onto it, falling through it and landing on the street below, joining Jacob.

"What are you doing?!" Jacob shouts as they back away from the creature, their bullets having no effect on the s.h.i.+eld.

"Helping you! I can't get a good view of it at all up there,"

"Well since you're down here now," He puts the shotgun back in the bag and pulls a knife from his belt which was concealed under his s.h.i.+rt, "I'm gonna need you to shoot that chainsaw off it while I hold it still,"

"What?!" Page exclaims as the creature shouts before it starts to charge at them. Jacob jumps to the side as it charges at Page. Page starts running from the creature as Jacob circles back around, running at the thing from behind.

"Shoot it in the leg!" Jacob shouts as the creature starts catching up to her, another group of zombies forming a wall a couple yards in front of her. She stops and turns around. Aims. Fires.

Page has to move to the side as the creatures loses it's balance, slamming its s.h.i.+eld to the ground as it skims a couple feet forward before coming to a stop. As the creature starts to stand back up Jacob runs over to it thrusting his knife into the head of the creature and wrapping an arm around each arm. The creature flails wildly, unable to turns its chainsaw arm to attack him.

Page quickly moves to the other side of the creature to see its arm. She shoots, and misses the eye. Another shot, misses.

"Any day now!" Jacob exclaims as uses all his strength to keep the thing from breaking free of his grip.

She takes another shot, and hits the eye. The chainsaw noises quickly start to die off as the chainsaw fall apart, leaving nothing but a burnt arm. Some of the pices fly around, hitting Jacob's arm, burning his arm from the heat. His grip loosens just enough for the creature to break free. It rushes forward and hits Page with its s.h.i.+eld arm, knocking her to the ground.

"Page!"

Jacob charges the thing, wrapping his left arm around its body and using his right arm to pull the knife out of its head. He starts stabbing it repeatedly in the head as it screams and flails about. It elbows him with its normal arm, causing Jacob to loose his grip again. As it tries to break free of his grip he kicks it in the back of the leg, making it fall to its knees.

Jacob uses the chance to grabs it's s.h.i.+eld arm, and plunges the knife into the eye. The creature falls back as the s.h.i.+eld falls apart. Before the creature can get up, Jacob gets on top of it, ramming the knife deep into its head. The creature lets out one last moan before going finally dying. Jacob gets up, hurrying over to Page. She has some blood on her forehead from an open wound. She's unconscious and her mask got knocked off and damaged beyond functionality.

Jacob takes off his mask, putting it on her before picking her up. There's no way for him to safely get her out of the market like this. He hurries over to a nearby building that's unharmed by the flames before the zombies can close in on them.

The burnt zombie's body starts to crystalize, a tough green outer sh.e.l.l forming around it.
