| VALENTINA |

Working as a S.T.A.R.S. member was one of the greatest decisions i've made in my lifetime, so far. Everyone treated each other as family, I had such a warm welcome when I joined.
I've never met my real family, and nor do I care to. if they wanted to see me they'd make effort to find me.
I grew up in the system, house from house.

it was traumatic I will admit, but it shaped me into who I am today.
if only things had've gone differently, and I wasn't in Raccoon City at the time I was, all the more trauma I gained from that night would've been avoided. I try my best to forget about this night, but I guess it's time I speak up and tell my story...

| 1998 |

1998, one of the worst years of my life. I'll never forget it. it was the year of the viral outbreak in Raccoon City, because of the Pharmaceutical Company known as Umbrella.
I'm lucky enough to be one of the few survivors. There was a few close calls, but if I hadn't of had Leon by my side, I wouldn't be here today to be able to tell my story.
I had some time taken off of work to go travel around, I was in Japan at the time. It had taken me atleast a week or two to fly back to America to resume my job as a S.T.A.R.S. member.

| RACCOON CITY |

When I arrived in the City something seemed off, it was too quiet. I arrived at a nearby gas station, it was the first one you were greeted with when you drove into the City.
Parking into one of the spots I turned my car off, taking the key out and shoving it in my pocket, unbuckling and opening my door I began to step out. Shutting my door I walked up to the station's front door, having a little look around.
I always made sure to keep my gun in my holster just in case I needed, and I'm glad I did that night.

| RACCOON CITY GAS STATION |

Opening the door to the Gas Station, I reached for my flashlight. It was dark, which was unusual since the Station was open, 'Why would the lights be out?' I asked to myself, glancing over to the freezer section; where I saw a flickering light and began to carefully make my way over. As I turned the corner I was horrified by what I was greeted with, it looked as though it was the shopkeeper - like someone, or something had taken a huge chunk out of the man's neck. "Sir are you okay?" I held a hand on my holster as I walked up to the man, he was groaning in pain; I was about to get down on my knees to check his wound when he pointed into the back of the freezers where there was a open door. Glancing to where the male had pointed I gave him a gentle nod, "Stay here, i'll check it out." I reassured the male, and began walking through the door, it was freezing since it was the cooler section.

| FIRST ENCOUNTER |

I reached the end of the long hall and opened the door, pulling my gun from the holster and holding it as I turned the door handle, pushing my way through the door my eyes widened as I saw a man munching on a police officer, I could've sworn I recognized the male - although I didn't have much time to get a good look at him.
The male that had began to chew on the Officer only took one bite before dropping his body to the floor and turning his attention to me, I aimed my Samurai Edge and began to shoot, aiming only for his head. Once he got too close I turned to try and opened the door - which seemed to be locked 'Fuck' I mumbled to myself and turned my attention back to the creature heading straight for me, reaching in my pocket I quickly grabbed my knife and slashed it's legs, making it dropped to the floor where I finished it off with a stab directly into it's head.
A sigh escaped my mouth, wiping the sweat off of my forehead I splat it on the floor with a hand gesture. it had been a while since I needed to use my handgun, I for sure needed more practice. but thanks to this night, I got all the practice I would need for a while.
I walked over to a second door that was near where I had first walked in, but it was also locked. I began looking around the room I was in, seeing keys hanging on the wall I snatched them and tried both doors, one of them matched the door I had tried to open secondly and not the one I came into the room from. I unlocked the door and opened it, walking through - the man I had promised to help slowly began to stand up, making the same grunts and noises the other one did that I had to terminate. 'No no no..' I whispered to myself, "I'm sorry.." I spoke to him as he began to walk. I started running through the isles since I hadn't much ammo left, there was a few others in the store so I booked it.

| MYSTERIOUS MAN |

Reaching the front door I shut off my flash light, putting it back where I had it on my character and then storing my knife back in my boot. I began to open it when I seen a male in a casual outfit pointing a gun at me, "WATCH OUT!" I called, aiming and shooting one of the zombies behind him, making it drop to the floor. "Thanks." the strange male spoke, I walked outside and looked around to see a wave of zombies all hauling their way towards us. "Shit, get in my car." I spoke, running over to my car I opened the door and began to turn the key into the ignition. Turning the car on I backed out and drove into the city.
I don't know why I drove into the city, instead of driving away. That was my biggest mistake.
