8 everyday people of Raccoon City – Kevin Ryman, David King, Alyssa Ashcroft, Yoko Suzuki, Cindy Lennox, George Hamilton, Mark Wilkins [Security guard] and Jim Chapman are all having a night out at 'J’s Bar', when suddenly it is attacked by zombies. They flee into the streets.

Meanwhile the Raccoon Police Department decide to evacuate as much of the city as they possibly can, in the panic many police officers are killed, and they muster a plan to destroy a large wave of zombies that are on the Raccoon Main Street.

The 8 survivors of J's Bar separate during their escape, and some find themselves within the Apple Inn which is currently on fire due to a boiler explosion and a nearby tanker explosion. The other survivors enter the sewers.

Inside the towering inferno of the Apple Inn, the survivors battle against swarms of zombies and find themselves attacked by a 'Regis Licker', a creature that kills its victims via its tongue. They defeat the Licker and escape into the streets outside, where they rendezvous with the other J’s Bar survivors. Outside, they are gathered together by the RPD who drive as many of the survivors to safety as possible.

Three RPD officers, Elliot, Eric and Harry rig Raccoon Main to explode, as Eric finishes the wiring, the zombies storm the barricade and Elliot and Eric are killed. The J’s Bar survivors arrive and with their help, detonate the bombs in Raccoon Main.

Some of the survivors go to the Raccoon Zoo, in hopes of reaching the escape helicopter. However, they are forced to go through the area, infested with the attractions, including a very hungry Elephant.

Outbreak: ‘Desperate Times’

The RPD decide to go out to face the zombie’s hordes head on, and set up a large police barricade close to the police station. Within seconds of the zombies hitting the barricade, the RPD is overwhelmed and many of them are killed, leaving only a handful of survivors.

At sunset, the Outbreak survivors arrive at the Raccoon Police Department. There, they find Marvin Branagh attempting to lead a few of the surviving police officers to safety. Fellow RPD officer Rita is sent through the underground beneath the station in an attempt to get reinforcements. However Marvin needs the help of the Outbreak survivors to escape. Once Rita is free of the station she runs and gets help from Harry, Marvin arranges everyone to meet outside the precinct, and while they wait zombies breach the barricades and attack. Marvin is critically wounded by zombies, and as the rescue van arrives, Rita and the Outbreak survivors get on board, leaving Marvin behind at his own request. He battles the remaining zombies and enters the offices, where he eventually passes out…

The UBCS member with his pocket book makes it the clock tower of Raccoon and notes his experiences: We managed to reach the Clock Tower. Out of desperation we robbed some wounded members of their weapons and used the surviving citizens as decoys. We were taught to do this in order to survive in the battlefield, but I never enjoyed it. However, a girl showed up at the clock tower before me. She is one of the survivors. She looks just like my sister before she starved to death...

David Ford makes another entry into his operation report, this time noting the first appearance of the Licker: The west barricade has been broken through and another exchange ensued. We sheltered the injured in the confiscation room on the first floor temporarily. Twelve more people were injured in the battle. Reporter : David Ford -Additional Report- Three additional people were killed following the sudden appearance of an as yet unknown creature. This creature is identified by missing patches of skin and razor-like claws. However, its most distinguishing characteristic is its lance-like tongue capable of piercing a human torso in an instant. Their numbers as well as their location remaining unknown. We have tentatively named this creature the "Licker" and are currently in the process of developing countermeasure to deal with this new threat.

OVERVIEW

Jill Valentine attempts to escape Raccoon City. Brad Vickers is killed by Umbrella’s BOW – the Nemesis. Jill meets up with UBCS survivors Carlos Oliveria, Mikhail Victor and Nicholai Ginovaef.

IN DEPTH

Elliot Edward, one of the last surviving RPD members, writes a second operation report: September 28th Early Morning 2:30am. Zombies overran the operation room and another battle broke out. We lost four more people, including David. We're down to four people, including myself. We failed to secure the weapons cache and hope for our survival continue to diminish. We won't last much longer... We agreed upon a plan to escape through the sewer. There's a path leading from the precinct underground to the sewage disposal plant. We should be able to access the sewers through there. The only drawback is that there is no guarantee the sewage disposal plant is free of any possible danger. We know our chances in the sewers are slim, but anything is better than simply waiting here to die. In order to buy more time, we locked the only door leading to the underground, which is located in the eastern office. We left the key behind in the eastern office since it's unlikely that any of those creatures have the intelligence to find it and unlock the door. I pray that this operation report will be helpful to whoever may find it. Recorder : Elliot Edward

The Army, deciding that the situation is hopeless clear the barricades at the city limits, leaving the city to its doom, because of this Jill Valentine decides it’s time to hastily leave Raccoon City. Lieutenant Mikhail Victor’s team is down to just himself, Carlos Oliveria, and Nicholai Ginovaef. Unknown to the UBCS survivors, Nicholai is in fact an Umbrella Supervisor, whose mission is to obtain combat data on the UBCS against the mass hordes of creatures that now infect Raccoon. Jill is pursued by Umbrella’s new creation called the Nemesis, it is specifically designed to hunt down S.T.A.R.S. members. Brad Vickers eventually is killed by the Nemesis and joins the zombie hordes in the afterlife. Jill whilst evading the Nemesis meets up with the UBCS survivors and they work toward getting the cable car moving in the city. Upon their escape, Nicholai is apparently killed by hordes of zombies in the Pharmaceutical building, and Jill, Carlos and Mikhail have to leave for the Clock tower without him. On board the cable car, Nemesis attacks and Mikhail sacrifices himself to keep the Nemesis at bay. The cable car crashes into the clock tower and Jill and Carlos find themselves in even more danger. Jill nonetheless is able to sound the bells for the evacuation helicopter, but Nemesis shoots it down. Jill is forced into battle with the Nemesis and eventually she is able to defeat it. It collapses into a fire, but not before it has injected Jill with the deadly T-Virus. Carlos arrives on the scene moments before Jill passes out into unconsciousness...

The unnamed UBCS mercenary writes on final diary entry before shooting himself through the head: Dawn's here, but we're still slogging through this nightmare. There are no provisions of any kind here. The undead walk the streets feeding upon the flesh of the living. Given the choice again, I would rather have been executed. Death row was a heavenly asylum compared to this place. I've chosen to pull the trigger myself, in the hope that my dead body won't come back to life.

The UBCS member with the pocket diary is found dead in the clock tower, defending a girl – also now dead, and his final entry: I wanted to evacuate as soon as possible, but the girl didn't. Her father insisted that he wouldn't leave the city. Where his beloved wife rests in peace. I really wanted to save the girl, but Campbell said, "All I care about is our lives." That's how I felt before, but now... The Clock Tower has become a dangerous place and I don't want to make anymore mistakes...
