========<* [LOG: 16] Red Queen has posed  *>=====================

VALENTINES DAY (That means it's February 14th).

It's the perfect night for some people.

For others? It's a nightmare without even involving horror or terror of any kind. The thought of it could drive one to madness especially if they were lonely or one of those hip counter-culture sorts who had to rebel against everything.

The night is dark and full of terrors though, this was Raccoon City.

<><><>

It was sometime after 3am and there were very few people on the roads out in Arklay Mountains, mostly because the majority of people with sense were listening to the warning to avoid the area.

Had nobody ever thought of the people who lived out here or had to use the route to go from one place to the other?

<><><>

A large transport truck is heading through the mountains, having just delivered a large shipment of guns to some bikers. The Arklay Mountains were a good detour back home, they avoided any weight scales or police usually.

As smugglers and gun-runners liked to joke, thank god for Umbrella cause nobody gives a fuck what happens in Raccoon so long as you're not messing with Umbrella.

<><><>

A pair of US Marshal's escorting a dangerous but not prolific Serial Killer had also found themselves going down the mountain roads, cutting through Colarado on their way to the next state. Unfortunately, they had ended up in Arklay due to their poor directions; having been forced to take several detours in their SUV. The prisoner in the back no doubt annoying them.

<><><>

In a much happier if dramatic state of affairs, two brothers and one brother's girlfriend are coming back home from a party. Drunk driving was a factor, as well as a heated argument over who Beth should really be with.

So much for Valentine's Day Romance.

=======<* [LOG: 16] Chad Scott has posed  *>=====================

A scenic night the endless road out ahead in the dead of night or rather the early morning. The 73 delta 88 rolls along headlights shining out into that morning darkness, custom built tires gripped hard to the road as the older Scott brother drives a good fifteen miles over the speed limit. He's got the radio up and blaring out generic rock, kicking back a beer before he throws it right out the window down to the ground bellow far behind them. "You know James, if you weren't my brother I'd kill you." A brief look into the rear-view mirror at the back seat at the other two. "I mean hell man, at least give me some warning before you go sleeping with my girlfriend." He wasn't in a good mood a hand falls down onto the steering wheel as he drives that little bit faster. "I mean I know you're jealous of my fame, fortune, and rocking looks but come on." A bit of sarcasm as he tries to cover the anger. "It's Suzy from first grade all over again." Talking as if Beth weren't even there.

===================< [LOG: 16] Large Marge’s pose  >====================

"My daddy served in the army, when he lost his right eye... But he flew a flag out in his front yard, til the day tha' he died!" Marge just made a bucket load of money on this run, so she was doin' a little cell-E-bratin', which includes a pint of whiskey and the biggest fucking meth rock god ever cook't up in a trailer. A little Toby Keith on RCBK Country, "Now this nation'at I love, has fallen unner' attack! A mighty sucker punch cum flyin' from somewhere inna back!" She steers the big rig with one knee, swerving like a drunkin goober while she sparks up a Bic lighter with an american flag on it to take a mighty hit from her pipe, which she promptly passes off to Paul.

"Man' we dun lit up yur world like the fourth of july!" She slaps the steering wheel and blows meth smoke in the already smokey cabin. "God, I'd fuck tha' man's face until he died of suffication."

"C'mon. Seriously. Not my fault." Lawrence is looking in the rearview mirror, checking his side mirrors every thirt or so seconds. "Besides, if anyone was tracking us to spring that idiot," a greying head gestures towards the back seat where Gregor sits, "We're on a different route." While he's just full of optimism, or is that more sarcasm? Probably sarcasm, the US Marshall hasn't gotten too snippy yet. "Just think," he offers to the car at large, "Half hour or so, we'll all be in our beds."

====<* [NO LOG: 16] Gregor Dmitri has posed  *>==================

From the back seat of the Marshals' economy sedan, Gregor Dmitri had been doing a lot more plotting than annoying. It was all about the fanfare for this one, the newspaper headlines, 'ripper' this and 'slasher' that, 'city in terror' giving him the kind of high hard one that usually only comes from an overdose of little blue pills. At his age he knew he'd never make the papers in sports, he was smart enough to know that with his IQ he'd never make the papers with that big new invention either, so in his twisted version of the world it was 'the entertainment industry' where he was going to make a big splash. Just imagine Raccoon City's reaction to: 'Serial Killer Slashes Through US Marshals to Escape Nearby.'

Practically drooling, he's been testing the handcuffs looped around his wrists behind his back. All the whining he's been doing about how they made them too tight, how he can't feel his fingertips anymore, that's mostly been to cover the clickety-clackety sounds as he works out whether these things are going to be escapable or not.

Stumbling from the sleeper cab in the back of the truck, Small Paul grumbles. "Ma! Ma! What the fuck are you going on about up there?!" He shouts. "We hauled ass all the way here. Now I'd like to get some god damn sleep, woman!" He snorts as he jumps in the passenger seat.

"Bruh," James reaches up to rub at the bridge of his nose, "like, stop being such a little bitch." Not drinking beer himself, he turns up a fifth of fireball. "Don't think you ever kissed Suzy after she sucked my dick." His words have an intentional bite to them, he wants Chad to be angry.

"And I wish the fuck you would. Not much I like better than to beat your boy scout ass." The fifth gets turned up once more, not coming down again until it's empty. "Always thinking you're better than me. Hate to fucking break it to you, but you're not shit."

"Would you two stop? Ohmygod..." Beth said as she looked over at them both from her spot in the backseat. "Its not like it matters anyway! Its just repeatedly sliding skin against skin until someone gets tired and gives up. Who cares anyway! Jesus fucking christ." She huffed out a heavy sigh and took another swig of her beer. "If its any consolation, both of you have small dicks and neither one of you can please me very well!" She looked out the window of the car and sigh dramatically.

Jessica Parks sits beside Lawrence in the front seat of the car. "I point out that it was you who just had to stop for a Big Bubba Burger and then had to stop four more times because you learned just why they call it 'Fast Food'. So. Yeah. It really is your fault." She fans her hand in front of her face, "Christ, Wright... if I live through your biological warfare long enough to get this guy to our destination? I'm going to pay to personally sew your ass shut.." she growls before rolling the window down, looking out her side mirror then glancing back at Dmitri, "Hey. Stop moving around or I'm gonna let Wright fire another round of his fart canon right back there with you."

"Oh I'm sorry, did you get dust in yur vagina?" Marge shouts back at Paul, even going so far as to turn completely away from the road to swing ham sized fist at him, then another, like King Kong swatting at airplanes, "Yur jus' jealous that I'm thinkin' bout Toby Keith while yur rubbin' yur tiny ass again' my thighs." If he wont take the pipe, she'll just have to hit it again.

=======<* [LOG: 16] Chad Scott has posed  *>=====================

"Not that I think I'm better then you cupcake." Chad uses hand motions to illustrate his point the decked out engine roaring along down that road occasionally swerving to avoid potholes. A low friendly chuckle escapes his lips. "It's just that I happen to know a little more about pleasing th-" He pauses mid sentence cut off by Beth. A drawn out aww "Now that's just uncalled for Bethy-bunny." A slight turn of the mirror to look at her instead for a quick moment.

"I know I've got to be in at least the top ten of men you slept with in the past week." A light smile coming from the football star as he just looks back to the road grabbing another bear. "I'll be honest here," Said as he pops the top off of another beer. "Not exactly easy to do much when a ride with you is like throwing a bratwurst down a hallway." Still pretty bitter about the whole thing as he starts to speed up a bit faster just wanting to get home and get this whole thing behind him.

Having been on the receiving end of Marge's beat downs several times, Paul knew one thing - protect the face! His arms go up as her giant hand comes at him. "Ma! Ma! Nooo!" He yells, cowering in his seat as he takes a hit. Once the onslaught ends, he chuckles. "You always ask me about my vagina.. At least if I have one it ain't like throwing a hotdog down the grand canyon in it." He snickers as he looks for some drugs in the glove compartment.

"A hotdog! HAH! A vienna Sausage if you hand me a microscope, an' that's if you ate your vitamins and said yur prayers." Marge is driving pretty shitty, but this is an old abandoned road in the mountains, what's the worst that can happen? "We need'a pull over here shortly, I gotta take a shit."

"Shit, really? Guess I imagined that time you came so hard on my face you passed out." James retorts, not really giving a shit anymore thanks to the alcohol. "If that's what you got out of it she just might be right." He props a knee up to pull a small medicine bottle from one of his cargo pockets, then promptly eats two of the small pills.

Shrugging off what has now turned into a verbal assault, Paul gives up as he can't find anything in the glove box - too dark. "Well that's the smartest thing you've said all day! Thank god you ain't shitin' in here again. I ain't hosin' you down!" He chuckles again.

"A condition.. I got a //condition.//" Lawrence repeats as if he's said it at least a hundred times before. "S'why I grabbing early retirement. Seriously.." He chuffs an exhasperated sigh as the windows are rolled down. "It'll keep me awake.. or free me the hell out. One or the other."

When Jessica is yelling at their prisoner, Lawrence shoots a glance back to the backseat, brows rising as he rocks his head back for a good view. "You heard the lady. Knock it off back there."

======<* [LOG: 16] Gregor Dmitri has posed  *>===================

Gregor Dmitri turns his head toward Jessica Parks but doesn't raise his eyes to her. "Ju make cuffs too tight," he answers in that whiny Russian accent, playing the beaten dog who just doesn't want another kick. "And ju make me sit on hands," he deliberately shifts his weight again. "There is nowhere I put them that doesn't hurt them more."

Suddenly he raises his eyes, head still lowered so the light from the console illuminates from forehead to nose and lets his white teeth stand out from dark shadow when he gives a feral grin that he probably thinks is rakish. Wright only gets a flick of the eyes when he starts talking, and then the serial killer's attention is back on Jessica again. "Mebbe you sit on my lap, eh girly? Hold me down and help me forget at same time."

========<* [LOG: 16] Red Queen has posed  *>=====================

Faint flakes of pristine white snow are falling from the sky, perhaps the last major snowfall of the season; the change in weather making the roads hazardous when combined with the recent bout of rain that had fallen.

<><><>

A deer runs across the road in front of the car carrying the teenagers, the animal staring into the headlights. Something seems off about it though, its intestines are already trailing on the ground

<><><>

In the back of the Marshal SUV, the smell was unbearable; but the pair of chatting Marshal's had no idea that their prisoner was up to something. A local police radio was talking about shots fired in the country-side earlier, local officers debating what might have been going on outside the city.

<><><>

The big rig Marge is driving is starting to swerve a little, no longer driving on the correct side of the road.

Jessica Parks mutters, "Only fucking condition you have, Wright is your bad choice in what you consider food.." She looks at the mirror then turns to look at Gregor. "Oh you bet honey.." she replies to him in a husky voice that turns dangerous. "And as soon as I do that I'll rip those little things you call balls off. I've seen M&M's bigger."

"Oh har har, -Chad-." Beth replied to the hotdog comment and she smirked after sipping her beer again. "In the past week, I'd probably rate your dad as number two and your mom as number one. Sadly it was at the same time, so its a little hard to figure out who was who. So You might swap those around-- LOOK OUT!" Beth pointed forward with her beer holding hand, spilling beer everywhere inside the car! but DEER! Aaaaand... she screamed, loudly!

Chad's about to make another smartass remark when that strange looking deer leaps out into the middle of the road looking right at them. Instead of attempting to swerve and avoid the deer Chad slams on the breaks for a moment then right before impact lets go of the breaks sending the front end of his car tipping slightly forward. Due to the change in momentum the old muscle-car tips down aiming into the deers legs as opposed to the center of mass. The force of the delta 88's new center of mass instead sends the critter up and over rolling above the car causing minimal damage as opposed to swerving which could have sent the car load of teens right off the road and into the forest.

"Oh shit!" Marge totally over compensates for her wild veering and veers in the other direction, then over compensates again, and almost veers completely off the road, "God dammit, you see wut ya did, Pa?! You had to get me thinkin' bout hotdogs." Whether the peni or food varient, "I promise if you let us live, I'll stop smokin' so much meth an' give up all my sins an' transgressions' gainst the lord! Come all ye faithful- JOIN IN PA WE NEED THE LORD GOD ON OUR SIDE!" Toby Keith, save us!

As the semi crosses the line, and Marge goes batshit crazy in the driver seat, Paul squeels like a little girl. "I don't wanna die, Ma!" He shouts. "Oh lord Jesus save me!" He continues to shout, his eyes shut closed. "Oh lord... I'm sorry, Ma.. I shouldn't have made fun of you shittin' that tarp you call pants.. 'cause I think I just shat myself! Stay on that god damn road!"

James Scott was trying to tuck his xanax away, so he didn't see the deer until Beth opened her mouth to scream. The angle he was sat at makes what would have been a nasty slam somewhat worse, his face cracking into the seat. "Fuck!" he hisses, reaching up to grab at his nose.

"What the hell was that?" he asks in a forced nasally voice, blood pouring out from the break.

The radio chatter at 3 am seems more than usual, but now's the perfect time for gossip. Helps keep Lawrence awake and anyone else who is up at this god forsaken hour of night/morning. After awhile, in the dark, it's hard to determine which tree is which and which light post is what. "Hey.. you heard that? I bet they figured that transport was doin' me a favor," Lawrence grumbles. He lifts eyes to the back again, and shakes his head, "You'll be fine. If we're cutting off your circulation, I'll make sure the docs check you." //When we get back.// "Then, have your estate sue us."

======<* [LOG: 16] Gregor Dmitri has posed  *>===================

Gregor Dmitri ignores the male Marshal, having gotten the rise he was looking for out of the woman. He leans a bit closer to the wire mesh separating the front from the back seat and lowers his voice conspiratorially to Jessica. "Is good you think about M&M," he answers her in a slow Russian-accented drawl. "They swell in your mouth, not in your hands."

From behind the stopped muscle car, the glow of headlights can be seen; multiple headlights veering madly around the road with reckless abandon.

Beth was covered in beer, all over her pink sweater. She was screaming obscenities and flailing her hands around causing more beer to fly out of her tightly gripped bottle, she was being an irritating bitch just waiting to be told to shutup. But, to her credit, a gutless deer had just rolled over their vehicle and spread its filth all across the windshield.

Jessica Parks picks up a bottle from under the seat. It's a spray bottle. Holding it to the grated barrier between the front and back seats. She begins to spray Gregor - with jalepeno infused water. Enough to make his eyes and nose sting. The sharp stream has as good a chance to succeed as anything. "Oh don't worry. you won't be seeing any more me. Or your ride to the pen, princess."

"Sum'uh bich! Is tha' the white lights of heaven?!" Marge sees the headlights, but she's so hopped up on meth and liqour, it might as well be! "Here I come sweet lord, creator, father of all thin's through whom all things is possible! God save the UNNNNIIOOOOON!" She literally veers TOWARDS the headlights, "In the arms of tha angel... fly away... from meee!" Nothing is as good for a vehicular homicide like Sarah Mclachlan.

"You tell sweet baby Jesus, Ma! You tell him good!" Paul yells, his eyes still shut closed, one hand on the door, the other - rubbing his ass under the seat, making sure he hasn't actually defecated in his seat - last thing he needs is for Large Marge to bitchslap his tiny white ass for putting a stain on the seat. He doesn't see the lights they are coming towards.

"Oh my god," Chad comments right as he hears the sound of blood falling to the ground. He turns around to face his brother, grabbing some napkins from the bag beside himself. "That deer broke off my new hood ornament." Coming out of his mouth where 'Are you alright' might have been expected. He pauses for a second the screaming still going on. "I paid a hundred bucks for that thing." As he flicks on the windshield wipers trying to knock off a bit of the blood, not fully recognizing the truck coming right at them for a moment. "Would have spent more but that was like a whole weeks paycheck after taxes."

There's a slight pause as he turns back to try and drive on once he notices those bright lights. Engine stalls as he sets there turning the key over rumbling right on. He passes the bag of napkins he'd always kept with him, as he talks to his car. "Come on baby, don't let me down, papa needs you to start up so he doesn't get hit by a truck."

Everything happens quickly.

The situation is escalated by the fact that Large Marge's drug-addled mind is gunning for the set of headlights in the road, even though she can barely keep control of her big rig.

Chad Scott is trying to get his baby started and it does, for a moment, tires spin and the fresh ice forming on the road causes him to lose valuable seconds as Large Marge's 18 wheeler of death looms behind them.

There wasn't a seatbelt in the world big enough to contain Marge, the woman barely fit behind the wheel; to be fair, she didn't. Small Paul on the other, was just fresh from the sleeper cab. No seatbelt.

The poor little man is tossed around as the 18-wheeler slides around the road, impacting the back of the muscle car just enough to send it careening off the road into a tree.

The 18-wheeler jack-knifes.

It begins to roll down the road violently just as the US Marshall SUV is coming around the bend, yes, there was a corner in the road here.

Three am. The windows are open, it's fucking cold outside, and there's radio chatter.

"Hey, close the damned window. I'm getting-- Hey.. watch that stuff.." Lawrence ducks his head as the spray of pepper and water gets sprayed out to the side of his shoulder, into the back. The jerk was enough to pull the steering wheel just a little to the side, and the turn comes up just a little too soon, unexpectedly so. Slamming on the brakes, which of course is something one should NEVER do just before a curve, particularly on potentially icy roads, the back end starts its pull to the side, and Lawrence has to steer in order to keep it from completely getting away from him. He can feel the side of the road, the gravel and dirt kicking up under the undercarriage, and he's still in that sliding turn, working for recovery.

"Goddammit... hold on..."

Poor, poor Small Paul. Driving 101 - Always wear your seatbelt. But in reality, it doesn't usually happen with truck drivers. Without even realizing what is about to happen, as it happens he's scared shitless (literally) as he's thrown around the cab as the semi gets into an accident. The force of the impact sends him straight out of the front windshield, skidding across the pavement and bouncing like a rag doll. Small Paul - reduced to a splat on the side of the road. A fitting end for a piece of shit human being.

======<* [LOG: 16] Gregor Dmitri has posed  *>===================

Gregor Dmitri hadn't known about that spray bottle or he might not have stuck his neck out as literally as he did. Some of the stream bounds off the grating but some gets through before he turns his head, slashing a liquidy mark from the inner corner of one eye down toward the outer corner of his mouth which rapidly reddens as the capsaicin absorbs into his skin. He curses in Russian, or at least it should be Russian since it doesn't sound much like English, and as he falls back against the seat he's trying to get his face and the canvas jail shirt on his shoulder to meet without parting his hands behind him. He isn't successful and sits there glaring at Jessica with the one good eye wide open and the other squeezed tightly shut even though it's already burning like hell.

"Is okay," he murmurs as he fidgets in the back seat. "I forgive you, girly. We still have lots of fun together, you and me. More maybe, I think." He isn't grinning anymore and he's keeping an eagle-like lookout for what's going to happen with that bottle next, that's for sure.

Only a moment later Gregor breaks out in a great-big shit-eating grin. Biggest, shit-eatingest grin he's ever worn and likely the biggest and shit-eatingest anybody's ever had cause to put on. It's not just because of that big rig rolling on toward them, it's because Jessica's looking at him with that spray bottle in her hand and Wright looks to be asleep at the wheel. The serial killer's hands suddenly come free from behind his back and he quickly snatches the seat belt over his right shoulder, dragging it across to snap into place. Then he curls himself into a ball, heels on the edge of the seat, arms crossed in front of him and hands gripping the seatbelt with white knuckles, head down in that protective kind of cocoon he's made out of himself.

There's not a set of jaws big enough to pull the over sized life that is Marge from the wreckage that is sure to follow this gator rolling 18-wheeler. At least the steering wheel will probably crush her arterie clogged heart before she has to witness poor methy small Paul's demise at the hands of physics.

But then she doesn't die... she's all beat up by the windshield, the steering wheel, and the fact that she weighs as much every other person on the road right now... She's passed stools that weigh more than the teenagers in that delta. "Pa, you alive?" She coughs.. the smell of burning and metal and blood is pretty thick.

It's an act of divine intervention that she manages to claw her way out of that wreckage and spies the smear that use to be Paul. "Pa?!" She clambers, reads rolls and throws her fat around like an amoeba, until she's craddling parts of the former piece of shit human. But it's like trying to rebuild a person out of pudding.

"GOD DAMN YOU YOU KILLED PA!"

She's bloody, covered in her skinny former partner in really gross sex, and pissed. She moves purposefully to the cabin, what's left of it, and pulls out a pump-action shotgun... chambering a round as she approaches the Delta. "Sum'body bout'tuh dae!"

This is it, and to be frank, it isn't how James expected to go. Smashed underneath a semi. Except somehow he survives! Though his eyebrow is split open in the struggle.

"Fuck me." he moans, crawling out of the car and pushing himself up onto uncertain feet.

"Somebody's about to die." he hisses, tugging the handgun from his waistband.

The 18-wheeler is flipped over blocking the road, preventing anyone from getting in and out of the mountains beyond that point. In typical movie fashion, there was also a fire starting that was no doubt going to cause a cool explosion or maybe it would follow the regular laws of nature and there would be no explosion.

That was a surprise.

The Marshal SUV skids off the curved road, avoiding a head on collision with the flipped over semi as it careened down the side of the embankment. Rolling multiple times and smashing through several trees the vehicle had landed upside down.

The front end was crushed in and the driver and passenger side doors were jammed. Both US Marshals were pinned in place.

Gregor? He was fine though. Whether by miracle or skill. He had barely taken a scratch. The door leading outside of the SUV was hanging open, loosened in the crash.

Still somewhat delirious and now covered in a splatter of booze and a bit of blood the entire case of alcohol smashed all over his recently refurnished car. "Alright so on the down side, the beer's gone, my smokes are soaked, my girlfriend cheated on me with my brother, we're trapped in the middle of the woods, my car that I put a hundred grand into is wrapped around a tree" He takes a peak towards that overweight woman as she starts to make her way out from the car. He's still out of it a bit from the force of the impact but there's a big ball of fluff between him and the dashboard

"And I'm about to watch my little brother fight the lard monster from the black lagoon" As the screaming picks up again, Chad rubbing a single hand up against his forehead, pushing the airbag he'd had installed out of his face as his seatbelt managed to keep him from going through the now shattered windshield. "Oh and just to top it off I have a headache now." His motions are overly calm and collected as he reaches down to the door of his car, which thankfully isn't completely destroyed. "On the upside I think this is going to be covered by insurance." Ducking his head down the football star grabs for his seatbelt trying to keep himself low to the ground.

There isn't a whole lot one can do when the skidding stops and the wheel catches on something, and then down... and down... and down... and down the SUV crashes and flips. The lights might be seen after one flip, two, but soon enough it's too far down for it to truly be picked up from the road.

Lawrence has his seatbelt on, which, comparitively, is a saving grace in that he's not thrown out a window and has the SUV land on top of him. Of course, there's that other bit that he's now pinned in. Bleeding from his head, the airbag has deployed and smashed into his chest, winding him.. but most of all, there's the collapsed front end that has pinned now broken if not mangled legs into place behind and underneath the steering wheel.

And in the post.. maybe a groan can be heard from him. (Or is that simply a last breath?)

His heart beats against his chest in rapid tempo; while he might be pinned, his legs broken, bruised ribs, and sore lungs, given medical attention, he might actually walk again, with months of post op rehab.

Another groan escapes his lips, but his eyes are closed and Lawrence never sees the glass shard coming at his neck. The glass hits true, slicing his carotid. Immediately, the blood gushes from the wound in rapid beats, brightly colored red spraying. The man screams in a new-found source of pain... but it doesn't last more than a couple of moments as the life's blood begins to burble instead of spray...

"... christ!" A surge of adrenaline erupts into her aching and bruised body. She pushes against a sprained, maybe broken ankle, her back bowing against the seat. Something snaps in the seat, collapsing backward enough to give her the inches needed to pull herself free, falling out through her door's shattered window.

He doesn't have time to wallow in the praise he rightfully deserves before getting hit by that stench right to the face. His eyes water, and he coughs as the 400lb woman lays on top of him crushing him under her weight. Half ready to vomit he starts slowly pushing the massive woman off of himself, before her bowels can completely release as comes with death. Coming to a stand he holds a calm pose trying not to cry as he wanders over in the direction of the shotgun.

He doesn't even say a word, as he reaches down into the brush. He feels the still warm gun barrel then follows it down to the handle. "Let's be honest with ourselves here sweetheart you weren't exactly going to be kissing me anyway." A pause as he flicks the gun round in his hand. "I don't enjoy damaged g-." Still trying to ever be the bad-ass even as that stench makes him about vomit with every breath. Good heavens the stench. He pauses there standing a look out to the forest. "Great, just what we needed." As he starts a quick jog back for the truck hoping to scav some extra ammunition for the gun registered in a dead woman's name. "Let's put some metal between us and whatever the hell that is."

He hears the gunshot after the angry buzz of the bullet whipping by, snarls bitterly, and turns to flee into the trees. He bends himself over to make a smaller target and weaves in and out between the trees as he sprints, that broken piece of glass still clutched in his right hand.

The next bursts of gunfire and explosions, then howling coming from the woods he's running into, not only gives him pause but makes him skid to a stop on his knees. He crawls fast to put a tree between himself and the gun-toting Marshal behind him, and listens intently for more signs of ruckus.

That set of eyes, all eight of them that Gregor had seen didn't hesitate to run after him when it not only noticed him but smelled him. It was drawn to the blood, like a piranha. TREES crashed down and toppled in the woods as the monstrosity pursued the Serial Killer.

In spite of the size of the creature, it was fast. Supernaturally fast.

Gregor is unable to out-run it and his last sight is that of what was once a grizzly bear. Pulsing sores and oozing sacs of festering flesh cover the creature which doesn't have one head, but two heads. Each of them with an extra set of mutated eyes.

Leaping, the bear the local rangers once called 'Smokey' was on top of Gregor ending him gruesomely.

They were all around Jake. There was dozens of the little spider-monkeys. Some of them looking like walking little corpses, others mutated and yet others still looking perfectly normal except for their red eyes. All at once, they ran towards Jake. Those on the deer-blind leapt at the man.

From out of the woods, a trio of vicious looking coyotes with rotted faces and visible intenstines began to trot out towards Jake.

Thinking about what he's going to do in a little while when he gets back to the SUV and catches Parks tending her injuries and not expecting him to show up for round two, it's full-on. When he realizes something's chasing him he glances over his shoulder and loses half mast. The bear isn't just a mutant, it's fast as hell. What do they say? Never run from a bear and don't climb a tree because they're better at both than you are - they don't have great eyesight so you make yourself look big and yell loud - but when it has a bunch of glow-in-the-dark eyes?

He turns to fight, trusting on old training and recent experience, going for the eyes. On his way in for the first stab the bear stands up and lashes out at him with a big paw that rakes a bloody swath out of his shiv-arm and across his ribs and sends him flying against a tree. When the bear drops to all fours and bounds toward him he's just wondering whether there will be enough of him to identify when the bear's finished or whether anybody would even find him this far from the car crash, and he starts screaming when the bear starts eating at his belly without bothering to finish him off first.

James had a moment, the barest of seconds to get to Chad based on the rustling he was hearing in the trees; the screeches of the spider-monkeys carrying through the night.

Jessica Parks somehow got into the SUV. She crawled and scrapped her way deeper in and picked up the assault rifle. It wasn't going to do much good but she tries to bring it around to fire at the heads roaring at her, the right head first... can't do much but make a last stand.

"Oh fu-" James dives backwards away from the creatures, then there's that explosion. While it saved him from being mauled to death (at this second), it threw him into the truck, breaking one of his ribs.

"-uuck" he wheezes, managing to make it back up onto his feet. He decides that maybe Chad wasn't so bad after all, and heads over to his older brother "Let's get the fuck outta here."

The rounds that Jessica unloads into Smokey the Infected Bear-Tyrant seem to have great effect on it, that is to say they're shredding off gobs of flesh that splatter all over her. She even manages to shoot out two of the eyes on the right head.

There was nowhere for her to run though and Smokey was hungry.

Smokey was always hungry and he wanted some of that finely yoga-sculpted ass.

The top of the SUV is ripped open and Smokey lunges at Jessica, signaling her end.

<><><>

Crawling over the top of the flipped over truck were at least a dozen of the spider-monkeys, all of them racing towards the Scott Boys; who had narrowly escaped multiple near-death situations only to land themselves in another.

GUN IT CHAD!

Jessica Parks had a great ass, too. But even yoga cannot get her out of this situation. The clip in the assault rifle is unloaded and there's no time to try and reload. The doors bow inward finally and groan as metal does when it fails. Smokey gets two US Marshal stamped doors as necklaces now. So stylish. And then she shrieks in agony and terror as the heads gain access to her. Her right arms disappears in one bite. Torn from the socket and gulped down whole.

As shock sets in the two maws rip, tear, and crush bones as the Marshal meets her fate. She did have a tasty ass. And now it's been devoured. Along with the rest of her.

Speeding up on his motorcycle Chad reaches down for his brother grabbing on to the elbow. Time seems to slow as he rips onto his brothers grasp pulling him up off the ground and onto the back of the old motorcycle. They might have a ride out of here but they aren't out of the woods yet. Those creatures gather round closing off the initial escape route, causing Chad to slide round in a circle just barely managing to miss the group of living dead creatures. "James when we get out of this, we're gonna have a long talk about boundaries."

He pulls in to a stop just for a moment revving the engine of the motorcycle once, twice then guns it forward heading towards the SUV as their only escape route. The roar of that v8 engine calls out to the forest as he speeds along. "Mostly ones that include telling me when you're going to sleep with my girlfriend." As he speeds up trying to get the hell out of dodge. "Sharing is fine, but there's limits."

====================<* [LOG: 16] James Scott has posed  *>====================

James Scott hisses quietly as he hits the seat, damn that broken rib. "Chad. I think I learned a lesson." Something that nobody ever thought they'd hear from James. Who knew it would only take death, destruction, and zombie animals? "I don't know if I've said it recently, but fuck Raccoon City."

The spider monkeys seem to be gaining ground on the motorcycle. Even with all of the juice Chad was feeding into the engine, sometimes horsepower just wasn't a match for nature that had been infected with a biological disease intended to create weapons.

That is, except for the unlikely hero of this story.

Trees crash down near the roadside and as the Spider-Monkeys are about to gain on the motorcycle? Something rushed out into the pack of them, a two-headed monster, full of claws and spikes.

A triumphant roar echoed through the mountains as Smokey began to tear the last surviving spider-monkeys from the Raccoon City zoo apart.

Raising up on his hind-legs, Smokey roared at the departing brothers who were almost out of sight. Perhaps a farewell to them and a congratulations on rebuilding their brotherly bond, maybe he was even saying not to do meth because it would lead to all this.

More likely? Smokey was saying I'm gonna get your asses sooner or later, you lucky cause I'm full.

AN HOUR LATER

The sun started to come up.

In the distance, Chad and James saw a sign.

-Welcome to Raccoon City. Population 721,483. Please enjoy your stay. -

THE END
