Resident Evil: Operation CLEAN-UP

[Penguins@StanleyCup]

"Its getting worse. I no longer feel pain either." Akim said allowing for the slightest undertone of sadness to enter his voice. "Either way I will hold you up no longer. Call for help on that radio I gave you or something. I have some work to do." With that Akim left the building.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray blinked, and shook as he lifted the radio to his face, tuning is as he went. "H-Hello? Is a-anyone out there? I-It's uh...it's Ray. The...uh...recruit. I-I'm in an apartment b-building, and lost."

[Cyprus Alpenglow]

Blinking as a voice came through on the radio, Cyprus ducked away from the road and drew his radio to his face. Peeping around the corner, he made sure he wasn't at risk from any infected stragglers roaming towards him.
"Recruit, which building? I'm out in the streets, and I found your rifle." he spoke, cautiously. "How much further did you go from here?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray stood up, and looked about. "Uhh...s-some apartment building, sir. I never s-saw the name." He started towards the front door. "Um...s-stand by, I'll get the n-name."

[Penguins@StanleyCup]

Akim was now sitting on the roof of a mostly intact hotel. He had tapped into the frequency the agents were communicating on using his radio, and was now listening in on their conversations.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray poked his head out the front door, and looked up at the sign. "Uh...P-Park Place."

[Cyprus Alpenglow]

Looking over the nearby buildings towards a few towering apartment buildings, Cyprus quickly caught sight of the building in question, decorated with a large sign little more than a block away.
"Copy that. Stay there." he ordered, checking his  flanks to make sure he was not at risk. "I'm coming for you. Give me two minutes. If I don't show up, make for the fountain as fast as you can."
Dropping the radio contact, Cyprus holstered his rifle and drew his sidearm, before breaking off into a run down the street in the direction of the apartment block.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray pulled his head back into the building, and looked around. He wasn't sure how long Cyprus would be, and was starting to panic. What if the lieutenant didn't make it in time, or more zombies showed up.


Zombies, attracted by the burst of gunfire, started towards the apartment, about thirty-five or so. They moved almost  in sync, trudging along. The moans betrayed their presence.

[Penguins@StanleyCup]

Akim looked down at the street from his vantage point atop the nearby hotel's roof. He saw many stumbling figures entering the building that the BSAA agent was in. Almost certainly infected.

"Again?" he muttered.

 While he prepared to make his way off the roof and across the street, he looked down the road a little farther to see another figure running swiftly to the building. He couldn't identify the figure as an agent, but he could make the guess.

Akim decided to take the risk to help the agent. He prayed he would be out of the building before the other agent showed up. With that thought, he hopped off the roof, and began using balconies, windows, etc to climb down to street level.

[Cyprus Alpenglow]

Cursing as several infected wandered into his previously clear path, Cyprus had to play for time a little, luring the creatures away so that he could make his way towards the building. He moved to the storefront of a nearby clothing shop and smashed one of several intact glass panes. The shattering glass turned the heads of infected throughout the street, and they slowly made their way towards him. All he had to do now was wait for them to move away from the center of the street and form a clear passageway. He prayed it wouldn't take long.

[Penguins@StanleyCup]

As Akim crossed the street, he saw the infected begin moving down the street in unison... more or less. He stopped for a moment in curiosity to watch.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray waited, his back against the door, hoping that Cyprus would appear soon. All he wanted was to be safe again.


The infected migrated towards the storefront, throwing themselves against the building. They pounded the glass, and some even got themselves impaled on the broken glass shards from Cyprus's distraction.

[Cyprus Alpenglow]

(I did actually try to reply like two days ago, but it just didn't go through. Sorry )

Finally, most of the infected had made their way to the right of the street, opening up a somewhat narrow passageway along the left storefronts. Taking the chance, he took off down the walkway, occasionally having to duck away from the few infected that his heavy equipment attracted. Before long, he was nearing the end of the pack, which meant a wide open area lay just in front of the apartment complex.
Finally emerging into the clearing, he panted heavily as he turned back to make sure none of the infected were following him. A few stragglers took some interest, but the sound of falling glass pieces finally being shaken free of it's pane drew them back to the crowd. He was now directly outside of the apartment block, but had to brace himself against the wall to catch his breath. Running with full tactical equipment was not something he liked to do. He didn't notice the character stood less than thirty meters from him, in the center of the street.
Gazing towards the floor as he huffed, he pulled out his radio and spoke into it.
"Recruit, you're clear through the front door. " he stated, quietly and cautiously. "Once you come out, we've got to book it back to the town center. Understood?"

[Rayleonarde]

((You're fine, I've had that happen.))

Ray blinked, and peered out the front door, before bolting across the street. The door barely shut by the time the young raccoon reached the sidewalk, panting. He looked about, hoping to find the commander.

[Cyprus Alpenglow]

((Jesus christ it happened again i swear))

Pushing himself off of the wall, Cyprus inhaled deeply as he walked up to the dazed recruit. Tapping him on the arm, he held out the recruit's rifle for him to take.
"Come on, we've got to get moving." Cyprus huffed. "We've got to get to the fountain for evac as soon as possible."
He quickly radioed in to the rest of his squad, keeping an eye on the crowd of the infected still occupied by the window.
"Squad, agent recovered. We're coming back, but the horde is active and roaming. Keep your eyes open."
