Outbreak: The Untold Stories

Desperate Times: Samuel

Are prison bars strong enough to protect me from the horrors of Raccoon City? The cold and haunted prison cell is my only defense. This whole mess happened only 17 hours ago. This morning, my act of justice was translated as homicide. My wife,...beautifully resting now. That monster...bit her...A MONSTER! NOT A HUMAN! I only saw red...and I was wrongfully accused. The cops came, threw me to the ground. The taste of loss and betrayal. Scarlet, I'm sorry...

Ten hours later...The whole city sounds like a warzone. People screaming and explosions replaced the calm Saturday afternoon. Gunshots...Monsters eating... I can only hear, not help the suffering. This holding cell...restraint and control...that is the lesson I am slowly accepting. I will escape soon. Suddenly the walls started to shake and I roar echoes through the cells.

"What in the-!?" I cover my ears and crouch next to the bed. The shakes grow closer. "Hey you! Listen! Are you listening?!" Said the voice in the second cell. "Whatever that monster is, don't let it kill you. You and me are the last survivors in this hellhole. We need to tell the world what happened here. Umbrella is destroying the city from the inside out. The name is Ben, be sure to put that in your testimony. The Police chief, phoney Irons was all into making the police station his secret lair. Me and Tommy did an investigation and found there are secret tunnels and passageways behind the walls. Be sure you don't...HE IS HERE!!! The prison gate is thrown five meters down the hall. The monster is here! I got small and stayed as quiet as possible. I manage to peek through the gap and see a massive growth on the back of the largest man in the world. The massive growth transformed into an eyeball. I cringe and close my eyes. "Dr. Birkin...LOOK at your mess! You are responsible for killing all of these innocent...!" ArghhAaughh!!"Ben screamed his last breath. The cell wall shakes and a few bricks fall out of place.The monster demolishes the wall and disappears into the dark. I crawl out of my safe spot and see a large hole in the wall. Its not big enough for me to crawl through but I can pull out a few pieces and make that possible. There is hope. The hole became large enough for me to crawl through. I soon see the former Ben. His whole body is torn to shreds. His face is a pulpy mess and all limbs are separated across the room. I only hope this doesn't happen to me. The prison cell had a few scattered files and negatives of photos. Ben's clothes had a few valuable things. The reporter kept a folding knife in his pocket. Ironic, but Ben actually had the prison cell key. But it can't work from the inside. I had to accept it, I need help. The cells were quiet for a while until the walls shook like an earthquake. What was...?!! The shakes were first faint then grew stronger...and the sound of footsteps echo closer. What...I need...I need to fight! I pulled out the folding knife. I stood my ground. It came closer....The footsteps stop. For a quick second, just silence. Then the silence was broken. The front gate bursts through the hallway and crashes into the wall. Whatever it is it's a demon. CLOMP!! CLOMP! CLOMP! It's Frankenstein! It's going to kill me in one punch! It's eyes turn and search the cells. It makes eye contact with me. It wants rip me apart. It steps back and starts to charge like a raging bull, its target me! I first feel scared then an idea forms. That monster is my way out! I time my dodge and spring to the left. The monster smacks into the prison door and it collapses! GO TIME! The monster rushes into the wall and it punches the wall!The monster grunts and I zip behind to escape the game of dodgefist! I now need to get out of this rotting city, there is nothing left for me here.

The hallway was poorly lit, could be a good sign. Electricity is still being supplied somewhere here...I continued down the hall and walked cautiously. I hear a gunshot from the Kennel. Should I check it out? I grab the handle it turns but, the door would not open. I step back and charge through the door. I push hard enough that the door completely slips off the wall and falls down. I hear another gun-shot... ZIP BAM BAM! Someone is fighting to survive.
