Set before the events of Raccoon City, this first part of a bigger story follows Billy Coen, as he finds himself caught amidst an ominous chase, slowly unraveling the truth behind the faceless corporation.

"The calm before the storm..." One's shadow. One's mistakes. A new beginning. A new nightmare.

This fanfiction is a result of both my love for and obsession over the Resident Evil game franchise. These games have been a major and crucial part of my life; some of my fondest memories revolving around them, some of my more prominent interests expanding from them. For 23 years, this franchise has increased my lust for knowledge and my interest in science, and has honed my skills in character development and world building.

Not a single day that goes by, where I don't see something that reminds me of the games; I talk about it ALL the time, embedded in my head, running deep in my veins.

It has become my life. Is has become me.
