Chapter 39: ATTACKING UMBRELLA

"I feel the safety of our group will be in danger if we follow this man," Claire expressed her concern.

"You don't need to worry about that," Alice reassured.

"Well, trust him. He may look like this, but he's a good person," Carlos said, glancing at Alex's crazy smile.

"Maybe?"

"What are you guys doing? Let's go! Follow my lead, and I will take you there," Alex urged.

"Okay."

"Everyone, get into your vehicles and prepare for travel," Alex commanded.

Soon, everyone got into their vehicles, and Alex started his car, accompanied by Alice and Kmart.

"Let's go," Alex said as he started the car and headed towards the base.

"Mister, how can you take things out of the air and lift objects without touching them?" Kmart asked.

"Some people differ from the rest, and they possess unique abilities," Alex replied.

"And I am one of them," Alex said, who was driving.

"So, how are you different from others, mister?" Kmart asked.

"You are all human, but I am not," Alex replied.

"So, you're not human, then what are you?" Kmart inquired.

"I am a dragon," Alex revealed.

"Really?" Kmart exclaimed with stars in her eyes.

"You believe me?" Alex asked.

"Yes, mister can do so many things, so I believe," Kmart replied.

"Can you turn into a dragon now?" Kmart asked.

"I can," Alex confirmed.

"Can you show me?" Kmart requested with a grin.

"I will show you after finishing with Umbrella," Alex promised.

"Really, Alex? I thought you were always joking about it," Alice remarked.

"When did I joke? I always spoke the truth," Alex defended himself.

"Okay, don't be angry," Alice said.

While talking, they arrived near the base.

"Alex, there are so many undead. Are you going to be okay?" Alice asked, worry clear in her eyes.

"Don't worry, just wait here. I will be back within an hour," Alex assured.

"Carlos, I'm going, and I will finish it within an hour," Alex informed.

"Okay," Carlos acknowledged.

"Is your friend that powerful?" Claire inquired.

"You'll see," Alex replied.

Alex opened the car door, got out, and ran. The ground cracked where he had been standing, and he instantly appeared in front of the zombies.

The undead, witnessing this, started walking toward Alex, but he used his telekinesis to crush all the zombies around the base.

Inside the laboratory:

"Sir, our base is being attacked," the White Queen reported.

"Who is it? Show me," Isaac demanded.

"Sir, it's Alex, the original specimen of Project Alex," the White Queen informed.

Isaac observed how the zombies were being crushed and realized he mightn't be able to handle him.

"Kill all the clones of Project Alex and Alice," Isaac ordered.

"Yes, sir."

"Prepare a helicopter for me to escape," Isaac requested.

"Sir, I don't think it's possible. The target has already entered the base."

"Increase security. Don't let him reach here and release all the newly mutated zombies. Do anything to slow him down!" Isaac instructed while trying to escape.

"Yes, sir."

Outside:

Alex removed the fence and saw three helicopters, as well as the lifeless bodies of his clones and Alice. Anger coursed through him.

"That son of a bitch! He's using my clones and Alice."

Determined, he walked toward the wooden house, the only way to enter the laboratory. He opened the door, smashed the floor, and found the entrance blocked.

"Do you think this can stop me?" Alex exclaimed, demolishing the blocked entrance and jumping in.

"Sir, he's coming through the lift," a soldier reported.

"Aim and prepare to shoot on sight," the leader ordered.

Soon, the lift doors were forcefully opened with bare hands. The leader made his decision.

"Shoot now!"

All the soldiers began shooting.

After one minute, the leader commanded, "Stop shooting."

As the smoke cleared, they saw the target unharmed, without a scratch.

"Now, it's my turn."

Alex exerted pressure, crushing all the soldiers, and started searching for Isaac. Soon, he encountered some mutated zombies.

"It seems Isaac is desperate."

Using his telekinesis, Alex ripped off the zombie's heads and continued his search for Isaac.

While Isaac was trying to leave, Alex confronted him.

"Doctor, where are you going?"

"I came here just for you," Isaac replied.

Hearing the voice, Isaac broke into a cold sweat and turned to face Alex.

"Alex, can we talk about this?"

"What is there to talk about? You used my clones for experiments," Alex accused.

"This is for the sake of humanity," Isaac defended.

"Can't you understand? What Umbrella is doing is a sick joke. Even in this post-apocalyptic world, you continue experimenting on humans and claim it's for humanity's benefit."

"Doctor, I'm not interested in your stories," Alex dismissed.

"Do you think anyone would believe Umbrella if they said something like this?" Isaac asked.

"I want to know if there is a cure for this," Alex demanded.

"Yes, there is a cure. If you give me enough time, I can invent it," Isaac said with hope in his eyes.

"There's no need for that. I can search through your memories," Alex stated.

Alex invaded Isaac's brain and witnessed all the inhumane experiments conducted on his and Alice's clones. He also discovered that, like Kane, Isaac had very few memories and no recollection of his life before joining Umbrella.

"What the hell is going on? Why are some of their memories missing? Something is wrong with the higher authorities at Umbrella. Their memories are all missing. Either Umbrella erased them or something else. I need to capture Wesker to get my answers."
