After Their meeting with The Women Ada wong. Both Leon and Maria finally made it to the EXO building as She saw multiple zombies entering.

Maria: Oh god, Everything is open, All the zombies are getting inside

Leon: We need to sneak past them or instead we can just kill them all.

Maria: True. Let's try the back door.

The Duo went to the Backdoor of the EXO building as They were looking around. They saw a few zombies around it.

Maria: There isn't much like the front entrance. Let's try killing them sneakily.

Leon: Its now or never.

Maria pulled out her knife as She grabbed One zombie and stabbed it on the head. She tried to get her knife off but it looked like it broke.

Maria: It broke at the worst timing...

Leon: Here, Take mine.

Maria: No its okay, I can take them out without a weapon.

Leon nodded as He roundhouse kicked one zombie and grabbed one and Sliced its throat. Maria did a Kick combo on the last one before Kicking it in the head.

They looked at the entrance as They got inside and saw zombies growling and..On the walls. They quickly went upstairs as Leon spoke.

Leon: Where is her office??

Maria: Its way on top, Maybe two floors before the rooftop.

They kept walking as They saw a Zombie near the rail and growled at them. The Zombie tried to pounce on One of them but they dodged it as The zombie fell off the stairs.

Maria: Geez, Hahaha. Poor thing.

Leon: Thats true.

A couple mintues of fighting all the zombies. They saw Melissa's office as They tried to open it but it needed a key card to access it.

Leon: You gotta be kidding me right now.

Maria: *Sighs* We need look for that keycard now.

Leon: We're wasting alot time right now.

Maria and Leon went to their separate ways. Leon was in the medic room as He was looking around for anything. He opened his flashlight and kept looking until He saw a Man standing.

Leon's Mind: What the? How did someone get in here or...It could be an employee.

The Man turned in fear as He saw Leon holding his pistol as He looked.

Man: Please Don't kill me!.

Leon: What are you doing here in EXO?

Man: I.....I work here as a Employee, I know Melissa.

Leon didn't really trust the man as He asked more questions.

Leon: You know Melissa? Do you know where she went?

Man: ...............

The man went quiet as He backed up into in corner.

Leon: So you were lying.

Man: I wasn't.....

Leon: Then where is she? Who or what came in her office!?

The Man crawled into a ball as Leon noticed he was too scared to tell anything.

Man: I can't...tell you.

Leon got angry as He went close toe Man and punched him as He spoke again.

Leon: I need answers!

Suddenly Leon heard a noise as He saw it was a Clicker. He quickly hid on the table as The Man was scared.

Man: No! Don't do this-

The Clicker growled as He screamed, Leon looked at the Man thinking that He didn't know what was the Clicker. In his own eyes he saw the Man getting eaten by the Clicker as Leon slowly went away.

Leon: Poor guy..

He knows something wasn't right...

Leon continued walking as He saw an Assualt rifle and took it. Suddenly he heard heavy footsteps as He looked around.

Leon: What the?

He kept looking until from behind...

The Tyrant has arrived and Found Leon, He fell on the ground as The Tyrant grabbed Leon by the throat as Leon was struggling to get out until The Tyrant got shot with a few shotgun bullets as He dropped Leon without any flinch or pain. He turned and saw no one as He got upset and looked at Leon until someone threw a Grenade as Leon quickly moved away as the Grenade exploded.

The Tyrant was stunned as He holded his throat as Leon grabbed his gun, He saw a flashlight as The person was trying to look at Leon as The Person was seen.

Claire: Leon??

Leon looked at Claire, The one who helped him at Raccoon City many years ago. It was strange for the two to see eachother again.

Leon: Claire!? Wait, What are you doing here?

Claire: I needed to find someone, Jill got kidnapped by a mysterious woman and I was left unconscious over here.

Leon: You were with Jill??

Claire: Yeah I was, What are you doing here though?

Leon: *Gets up* I'm helping a EXO operative here and Her boss got kidnapped. Right now we are trying to find a Keycard.

Claire: Oh I see...I think I have what you need but let's move out of here first.

Both Leon and Claire ran away as The Tyrant got up and had anger on his face. Claire gave the Keycard to Leon.

Claire: I'm surprised to see you again.

Leon: I wasn't expecting this either..

He stood there as He was thinking about Maria and muttered to himself.

Leon: I need to find Maria.

Claire: Maria?

Leon: Yes, She's the one jm working for. I hope she is alright.

Leon checked around as Claire was following him. Leon opened the office as He kept looking for Maria.

Leon: Stay here Claire, I need to find-

Too late for Leon, Maria was running fast as Leon looked at her.

Leon: Maria, Are you okay-

Maria: You got the keycard!?

Leon: Yes, I got it from-

Maria: Lets get in! The N-

Suddenly something busted though the wall as The Trio stared and saw...

Leon: Seriously??

Claire: Come on! Let's get inside!

They all ran inside the office as Maria spoke.

Maria: Is this office door even gonna handle that thing!?

Leon: Maria, This door isn't breakable

Maria: I hope so!

Claire panted as Maria looked at her.

Maria: You are?

Claire: My name is Claire Redfield, I used to be partners with Leon over here. I was sent here to investigate what happened...Now I see it all. I was with Jill awhile ago but she was kidnapped by a mysterious women and I fell unconscious because she shot a tranquilliser on me.

Maria: Im sorry about what happened with Jill. We did meet her actually.

Claire: *Sighs* I hope she is fine.

Maria looked at Leon as She bumped her elbow ro him and whispered.

Maria: Your partners with alot of women. I See.

Leon: Are you jealous or something?

Maria: Definitely not.. But It seemed that way.

Leon: Well I can't really say anything about that.

Maria looked at him and nodded as They saw the office was very messy, some windows were broken and guns on the floor.

Claire: Alot happened here.

Maria: Right...

They heard the Nemesis walking from outside the office as They began looking around if there was anything.
