Decaying underground lab beneath the ruins of Raccoon City. Air thick with tension. Walls are cracked, the dim light flickers. Loud thud echoes in distance. The team moves cautiously through the narrow hallway of the lab. Claire’s flashlight flickers, casting long shadows on the walls.

Clarie (whispers): "TerraSave’s team should be right around here."

Ground shakes, and a distant growl echoes from the darkness ahead. Leon draws his gun, ready.

Leon: "Stay sharp. We’re not alone."

From behind a broken door, Nemesis bursts out, roaring with fury. His massive mutated form stomps toward them.

Nemesis (growling): “STAAARRSSS…”

Jill (eyes narrowing): "Not again..."

Carlos fires first, aiming for Nemesis's glowing eyes. Ada steps forward, tossing a grenade launcher to Leon.

Ada: "Finish this."

Leon fires, the grenade landing near Nemesis, sending him crashing into a wall. But Nemesis recovers quickly, his tentacles thrashing wildly.

Clarie: "Keep him distracted! I’ll flank him!"

Claire dashes to the side, but as she moves, the lights flicker again. William Birkin(in his mutated G-form) appears, screeching as he charges toward her.

Clarie (shouts): "Leon! Birkin’s back!"

Leon spins, firing at Birkin, but his shots have little effect. Ada pulls a flashbang from her belt and tosses it in Birkin’s face, temporarily blinding him.

Ada: "Get to the lab. Now."

The team rushes through the corridor, but they’re suddenly cut off as Alexia steps from the shadows, her cold eyes glowing with malice. Jill moves to take point, throwing a flashbang at Alexia, momentarily disorienting her. The group pushes forward, but Hunk moves to block the rear, firing a few well-placed shots to keep the mutated creatures at bay.

Hunk: "I’ll cover your escape. Go."

The team moves forward, Nemesis roars again, his tentacles slamming into the walls.

The air thickens with tension as Birkin and Alexia recover. The team's cornered, and their only way out is deeper into the lab where something even more sinister lurks.
