Extra Notes: I apologize if the time of the events that this fanfic takes place in is a little bit off from the actual video game. Just think of it as this: Everything just happened a bit sooner than it did in RE2 Remake's actual canon.

Cassie Cage looked at the file folder that her mother and superior officer, Sonya Blade had just handed to her a few minutes earlier. It was the file of a young woman that had gone missing just a few hours earlier in Raccoon City. It had her picture in the folder alongside a few pages about her life up until fairly recently. Cassie was sitting down in the chair across from Sonya, who was also sitting down in her own office chair behind her disk. She looked up from the file folder to her Mom.

"Major Blade, so you want me to rescue this Claire Redfield girl and anyone else stranded in Raccoon City? What's happening there exactly? I know that this file says something about a virus outbreak, but it doesn't go into exact detail. What's going on?" Cassie asked her and Sonya took a deep breath and she exhaled it slowly.

"Sargent Cage, Cassie, I went to college with Claire's Uncle, Jay Redfield. We have always been really close friends. You see, Claire had gone looking for her older brother, Chris Redfield, and late last night, she had called Jay from a payphone just outside of Raccoon City. She was supposed to call him once she reached the police station. Chris is a cop for the R.P.D. Claire didn't call him back, so Jay called me an hour ago because he's worried about Claire. There are also two other people that you need to look for, a rookie cop named Leon Kennedy and a little girl named Sherry Birkin. I'm sending five other soldiers with you as backup. You leave in forty minutes. Dismissed." Sonya said and they both saluted each other.

Cassie got up from the chair and she picked up the file folder and she left Sonya's office to get ready to leave for Raccoon City. She knew about the Redfields, although a bit vaguely. She thinks that she may have met Claire when they were both quite young, but she's not exactly sure.

Cassie stared wide-eyed at the corpses of her slain fellow soldiers. The five soldiers that she had came to Raccoon City with, were killed almost as soon as they reached the city. She couldn't believe it. Raccoon City was overrun by zombies. Rick Grayson and Ansagar Johansson were torn to shreds and Cassie, Brandy, Barrett, and Billie made it to a nearby house. It was a small house thankfully, so there were no zombies in it. But there were zombies banging on the front door, and they busted into the house and they killed Brandy and Barrett, which just left Cassie and Billie. They both ran out of the house while the zombies were distracted with eating their friends.

Cassie and Billie ran as fast as their legs could carry them. They slowed they're running down when they neared a Walmart parking lot. There were no zombies around them at the moment, so they rested their hands on their knees as they tried to get air back into their lungs. And then they heard some growling sounds that had the hair on the back of their necks standing on end.

And with fear in their eyes, they started to run again, but Billie was grabbed a zombie and it tore into her neck with it's rotted teeth, tearing chunks of flesh of her neck and she died before Cassie's eyes. She stared at the dead body of her friend.

With tears in her eyes, Cassie ran once more, but this time, she ran in the direction of the police station. It didn't take her too long to reach it. She had to go to the back of the huge police station since the front of it was blocked off by several cars, and a school bus.

She ran towards the back of the police station and she saw what looked like an improvised graveyard. She pushed the door open and it creaked loudly and Cassie grimaced. She walked into the mini graveyard and quickly past it and up some nearby steps. The blonde woman finally made it to the backdoor of the police station, which had a fire escape and a small metal door in a barbed wire fence.

She opened the door as fast as she could and closed it back just as fast. She looked up and that's when she noticed a big hole in the building. Apparently, a helicopter had crashed into it, but someone put the fire out, which looked like that had happened recently. Cassie then made her way up the steps of the fire escape and she opened the door that led into the police station.

And Cassie was glad to finally be out of the rain, because she was starting to get cold. Cassie's eyes widened when she saw one of the very people that she was looking for, Claire Redfield, was standing several feet away from her. But that was when she heard something that sent shivers of fear down her spine. And then she saw something that nearly froze to the spot that she was standing on. It was a guy, huge, standing at, at least eight feet tall, wearing a trench coat and a hat and his skin was purple.

He lifted the helicopter and he moved it away and into another area. He then came running towards Claire. She raised her gun up and she fired several shots at his head, shooting and knocking his hat off of his head. And a few more shots had sent him down to his knees. Claire turned around and her eyes widened when she saw Cassie not but several feet behind her.

"Come on, let's go before this motherfucker gets back up." Claire said to her and Cassie nodded to her and they both ran away from the monster that was going to kill if given the chance. Claire pushed a nearby door open as she ran right to it and she held it open for Cassie and then they kept running until they ran to the main hall of the police station. They both panted hard as they stood on their feet.

"Hey, are you in the army or something? By the way, I'm Claire." She reached her hand out to shake and the young woman took it, then they both blushed at the contact. It was like a bolt of lightning had struck them both, leaving their hearts beating faster and their skin tingling.

"I'm Sargent Cassie Cage in the Special Forces. I was actually sent here to rescue you and some other survivors. I'm glad that I found you in time. What the fuck is going on here though? Five soldiers of mine were killed by zombies. Actual. Fucking. Zombies. I mean, I've dealt with some really fucked up shit in the past few years, but this shit really takes the fucking cake." She said and the young redheaded girl nodded to her.

"I have no damn clue either. But I do know one thing: I have to find my two friends and get the fuck out of here. Their names are Leon Kennedy and Sherry Birkin. They still have to be here in the city somewhere." Claire said to her and the blonde woman's eyes widened.

"Wait, Claire, did you just say Leon Kennedy and Sherry Birkin? I was sent here to find them too." The blonde told her and the other girl gasped.

"You were? That's great. Well, There are still a few things that I have to do before we can leave this place." Claire said to her and the blonde woman nodded. Claire told Cassie where they needed to go next and the blonde woman nodded once more. And both women started walking to where Claire had said that they needed to go.
