The war against Umbrella never ended for Jill Valentine. Even after the corporation's public downfall, its ghosts kept rising from the shadows.

The intel arrived as it always did—fragmented, clandestine, dangerous. A name repeated in encrypted files pulled from an abandoned server: Basilisk.

Active project. Underground facility. High containment level.

No further details.

Jill already knew what that meant.

A forgotten industrial complex on the outskirts of Raccoon City served as the front. From the outside, it looked dead. Rusted gates. Shattered windows. No sign of power.

Inside was another story.

The first gunshot echoed in the main lobby.

Zombies wandered the halls like deteriorated shadows of what were once human. Then came the aberrations—incomplete experiments, unstable B.O.W.s left to fend for themselves. Creatures too fast, too strong, too resilient.

Every confrontation cost ammunition.

Every cleared room revealed another infestation.

Silence never lasted.

Jill advanced with military discipline, controlled breathing, precise shots. But even precision has its limits when quantity outweighs strategy.

Magazine after magazine.

Corridor after corridor.

By the time she reached the elevator to the lower level, her count was critical.

The rusted display read:

LEVEL B3 – BASILISK

The elevator descended, groaning as if in protest.

Down below, the air was different.

Denser.

Heavier.

As if something breathed in the depths.

The doors opened onto a narrow hallway marked with worn metal signs:

BASILISK – RESTRICTED ACCESS

The doors were open.

No scientists.

No security team.

No active containment.

Just silence.

Jill checked her magazine.

Few rounds left.

She moved forward anyway.

Because if Umbrella was still creating monsters, someone had to walk into the darkness to put them down.

And at the end of that hallway, something waited.

ps: I'm still going to work more on this character. I'm not feeling well enough to finish her, and I'm short on time, so I thought it would be better to publish and test her now, and finish her scenario later. In the meantime, I look forward to your feedback to improve her—suggestions are always welcome.
