Civilian Checkpoint

Soldier: Move! Move!
DeChant: Captain DeChant here. We’ve secured the underground route to the coordinates.


Chris (V.O.): I should have seen it coming. It didn’t take long after the fall of the Umbrella Corporation for their bio-weapons to end up in the hands of terrorists. A new era of bio-terrorism descended upon vulnerable countries, shifting the balance of power throughout the region. People in the destabilized areas soon feared another incident like Raccoon City was inevitable. As panic spread, governments of the world turned to the Global Pharmaceutical Consortium, which formed the anti-terrorism unit BSAA. Operatives of the BSAA were sent to infiltrate and neutralize bioweapon hotspots, restoring safety and stability to various regions around the globe.
Sheva: Welcome to Africa. My name is Sheva Alomar.
Chris: Chris Redfield.
Sheva: Your reputation proceeds you, Mr. Redfield. It’s an honor.
Chris: Just Chris, thanks. So will you be accompanying me to the destination?
Sheva: Yes. Tensions are running high ever since the change in government.
Chris: I’ll bet. Intel says it’s a haven for terrorists now.
Sheva: And they’re not going to be happy to see an American, BSAA or not. That’s why I’m your partner; help put them at ease.
Chris: I’m sure you’ll do just fine. Partner…
Sheva: You OK?
Chris: Yeah, sorry… It’s nothing. Let’s go.
Chris (V.O.): Casualties continue to mount over the long years I’ve struggled. More and more I find myself wondering if it’s all worth fighting for. Maybe one day I’ll find out.
Guard: Hey! Hey!
Sheva: You don’t have to get touchy! Let’s go.
Chris (V.O.): There is one thing I do know… I have a job to do, and I’m going to see it through.

Kirk: This is Kirk. Chris, Sheva, can you read me?
Chris: Chris here. Coming in, loud and clear, Kirk.
Sheva: Yes, we read you.
Kirk: There’s a black market weapons deal going down in Kijuju. That’s where Irving will be. Alpha Team has already infiltrated the area and you will be going in as backup. Rendezvous with your contact at the butcher’s shop. You can gear up and get briefed on the mission there. Watch your backs!
Chris: Roger that.
Sheva: Copy. Over and out.


Fisher: Good. You’re both here. Come. You two. This way. It may be because of the new government, but people around here are a little on edge. You should do what you came to do and go home.
Chris: Yeah, they really roll out the red carpet for us Americans.
Fisher: I have your weapons for you here. Check them. Grab your weapons. The operation’s already started.
Sheva: Destination coordinates?
Fisher: Town square up ahead. Go through there, Alpha Team’s waiting at the deal location.
Sheva: Good.
Fisher: What do you know about Uroboros?
Chris: Mostly just rumors…something about visions of a doomsday project.
Fisher: Doomsday sounds about right, and apparently it is no rumor.
Sheva: You’re kidding, right?
Fisher: You must find a man named Irving, he’s our only lead. And be careful out there.
Chris: Remember, we’re a team. Whatever happens, we stick together.
Sheva: Don’t worry, I may not be as big as you, but I can still hold my own.


Sheva: Did you hear that? It came from that building!
Chris: Freeze! Are you OK?

Sheva: What the hell just happened?
Chris: They didn’t act like any zombies I’ve ever seen.
Sheva: We should keep moving. They’ll find us soon. We need to get out of here! We need to get to that house: We’ll have a better chance of fighting them from there!

Chris: Kirk, come in. The locals were hostile and we had to use force. We don’t have any contingency plans for this situation, do we, Kirk?
Kirk: Roger on the locals. But your orders still stand.
Sheva: What does that mean? Was HQ expecting this?


Fisher: You don’t know what you’re talking about! You can all go to hell!
Sheva: Wait a minute! That’s the…!

Chris: Kirk! Come in! The locals are hostile! The gate is sealed, and we’re trapped. We need backup, and we need it right now!
Kirk: Roger that. Just sit tight. I’m on my way!
Chris: You hear that Sheva? Help is on the way!
Sheva: Got it! I just hope he gets here quick!

Sheva: There’s just no end to them!
Chris: We have to hold out until Kirk gets here!

Kirk: Chris, Sheva, how you holding up? I’ll be there shortly, just hang in there.

Kirk: Sorry to keep you waiting! I’m going to take out the door. Find some cover!

Kirk: Take cover!

Public Assembly

Chris: Kirk, we owe you one.
Kirk: You can thank me later. Chris, Sheva. It’s almost time for Alpha Team to go in. Hurry to the deal coordinates.
Chris: Roger that.
Kirk: I’m going up ahead. We’ll meet up there. Good luck!


DeChant: Mathison, Captain DeChant here! Our route is blocked! Kirk! Come in!

Sheva: We can’t get in from here.

DeChant: We engaged the enemy! …And what…what the…that thing!? … in trouble… We need backup! Shit! …Help! …can’t see…
Kirk: Captain, what is your status? Can you see the enemy?
DeChant: No, no! Wait! God damn monster!
Sheva: Alpha Team, come in! Alpha Team!
Chris: DeChant! Do you copy!? DeChant!


Sheva: I found a key. Wish I knew what it was for.

Allyson: Help! Somebody help me! Help!
Chris: Hey, what’s wrong? Be careful. They may still be here. Are you OK?
Sheva: Chris!


Kirk: Mathison to HQ. We’ve lost contact with Alpha Team! They’re under attack by an unidentified hostile! Reinforcements, heat toward the deal coordinates immediately!
Sheva: Sheva here. Roger that!
Chris: Move out!


Chris: What the hell happened in here? Hey, who did this?
DeChant: Something attacked us… Irving… He got away…It was a setup…
Chris: A setup…!? What is this?
DeChant: It’s data regarding the deal… I downloaded it from their computer… You got to get it to HQ…
Chris: Hey…hey, hang in there!
Sheva: I saw someone, but they ran away…
Chris: Kirk, do you copy? We got the data, but Alpha Team is down. Irving got away.
Kirk: Roger. Relay the data from the vehicle at the storage facility.
Chris: Copy that.
Sheva: I don’t like the looks of this, but we have to keep moving.


Sheva: What the hell is that?
Chris: I think that’s what got Alpha Team!
Sheva: Fall back!

Sheva; This thing was responsible for the deaths of Alpha Team. We need to report this to HQ.


Irving: Let’s go.
Chris: I got it.
Sheva: What was that thing?
Chris: A B.O.W. that scum bag Irving left behind to set us up. Considering what it did to Alpha Team… I think we’re lucky to still be breathing.
Sheva: If only we could have gotten there sooner.
Chris: If we had, we’d probably be dead too. Chris to HQ, do you copy?
HQ: This is HQ. Excellent work out there. We’ll analyze the data immediately.
Chris: This whole town’s gone to hell. The people here they’re acting like those Ganados detailed in the Kennedy Report, and aside from that, there’s something new, something we’ve never encountered before.
Sheva: Our transportation has been taken out too. Requesting a mission update.
HQ: The mission stands. Capturing Irving is your top priority. We believe he may have fled to the mines on the other side of the train station.
Chris: Wait, we’re the only two left, you want us to go in there alone!?
HQ: Delta Team have been dispatched and are on their way. They will assist you in locating and apprehending Irving.
Sheva: But wait, we can’t…
HQ: I repeat, your mission stands. We can’t afford to let him get away. Proceed to the mines beyond the station. Over and out.
Sheva: This is insane!
Chris: You ever get the feeling you’re expendable?
