The Nightmare

☬ Chapter Fifteen: The Beginning of the End ☬

      Ada, Jackson, Heather and Nereyda slowly make their way towards the front door of the Mansion as Miles, Bug, Hunnigan, Sebastian and Kendra make their way to the back sliding door. Ada presses a button on her her piece, "The code is 3976." Ada says as she types in the code on the side of the door. Miles also types in the code and slides the door open. Ada and her team immediately head up the stairs, "Heather, Nereyda check this second floor. Jackson and I will check out the third floor and attic." 

     Heather nods her head and heads towards her room, Nereyda heads to her guest room. Jackson and Ada storm up another flight of stairs. 

    Miles storms into the hallway leading to the staircase and stops at the kitchen. "Kendra, I want you and I check out the basement. Hunnigan and Bug check this floor." They both head down into the basement quickly. 

      After about twenty minutes of intense searching everyone groups up in the kitchen. Standing around the island with distraught faces. "She wasn't in the basement or the first floor." Miles says as he places his handgun down on the island. Ada sighs as she shakes her head, "Their was no sign of upstairs either. Nothing was missing or out of place, it's like she was never in here. But I could sworn that was her in the video." Ada says trying to figure out the puzzle. 

"Maybe you're video was wrong or something? Or maybe it was a ghost?" Sebastian suggests as he shrugs his shoulders. 

 "My equipment is state of the art, there's no way it could malfunction. It had to of been her." Ada says as she lays her face down on the island. 

"Well regardless, we can't give up. We'll look around again later on." Ada says as she pulls up a stool to sit down. Hunnigan slightly coughs and pulls out a briefcase, she open sit up and pulls out photos from the crime scenes in Colorado; photo's of the woods that was completely destroyed, of Cybil and Chris' corpses and the variety of creatures she was able to take of from the bus. 

     Ada picks up a photo of a few slash marks on the trees and on Cybil. "Hunnigan, we need to examine the marks on their bodies to see if these scratches match." Ada says as sets the photos down. Hunnigan nods her head, "The Funeral home still has their bodies in a deep freeze. I'll call the owner to have them thawed out by the time we get there." Hunnigan says as she pulls out her cellphone and dials the funeral home. 

      Ada points to Kendra and Sebastian, "I want you two to go with Hunnigan and help her out with the autopsy on Chris and Cybil. She's gonna need help with that, it won't be easy on her." 

      Sebastian and Kendra nod their heads. Hunnigan walks back into the room, "He's already thawing them out. We should out there, It'll take us about 8 minutes to get there." Hunnigan walks to the door with Kendra and Sebastian following her close behind. They exit the house to see a two passenger seat car, "I'm so sorry Sebastian, could you use Ada's car? My car's only a two-seater." Hunnigan slightly blushes as Sebastian nods his head smiling. 

"It's fine by me, better than being squished." Sebastian steps into Ada's car as Hunnigan and Kendra step into hers. They both immediately speed out the driveway. 

      Ada and the rest of the group  begin to focus on the evidence in front of them. "Okay, so what do we know?" Nereyda ask's as she sits down on a stool also. 

"We know that Umbrella and the Asylum are working together, thanks to Dr. Grey." Bug says as he slides a photo of the Umbrella logo and photo of the Asylum side by side. 

"We also know that the woman with the mask has something to do with Umbrella. And she's also able to have control over the B.O.W.'s, which is incredibly strange." Heather says as she slide a photo of a dark shadow underneath the Umbrella logo. Heather then slides photos of the creatures underneath the shadow.
