1st Outbreak [Video]

[aweskerdidit]

[A very slick, businesslike man is on the other end of the NV, and appears to be holed up in a location much more secure than the Newcomer apartments (it's a parking garage, shhh.) The dark sunglasses he wears hide his eyes and any clue as to what the expression on his face really means, though if you use your imagination, it might be... annoyance.]

We needn't really bother with introductions.

[And a brief, faux-pleasant smile is interrupted by a sharp, serious tone of voice.]

All I require is information. Provide me with the date, including the year, my approximate location and coordinates, and the manner by which I came to arrive here.

[And then all of a sudden he smiles again. It is not a good smile at all, looking strained and like he is trying to sound pleasant.]

I apologize for sounding terse. I've had a very long day.

Will anyone be good enough to tell me what I need to know?

Comments

[hejhej]

Since March.

[aweskerdidit]

That is interesting.

[And suddenly his demeanor changes the slightest bit friendlier.]

My apologies, dear girl. I've been interrogating you and I haven't even introduced myself. My name is Albert Wesker.

And you?

[hejhej]

[She could give him her moniker, but he'd find her name eventually. This was an open network and people called her over it all the time.]

Lisbeth.

[aweskerdidit]

Thank you, Lisbeth. You've been most helpful. I will have to repay you in the future.

[I wouldn't take him up on that if I were you, Lisbeth...]

What can you tell me of the two companies?

[hejhej]

[don't worry, it sounds creepy enough.]

AGI is the short version of Afterglow Incorporated. They deal with slaves and the sex industry. SERO is more scientific and I've heard that they experiment on people, namely trying to figure out where powers come from. Their hospitals are top notch, though.

[aweskerdidit]

[That's Wesker in a nutshell. Be glad he isn't your team leader or boss.]

I see. [Well, that was an easy decision. Wesker loves a good human experiment.]

And they fight for control over the city.

[hejhej]

Pretty much. They pressure alot of us to affiliate, promising it'll make our lives better.

[aweskerdidit]

Yes, I heard the whole sales pitch when I arrived. Corporate sponsorship of our lives, in a sense.

[hejhej]

I'd say AGI is the shittiest.

[aweskerdidit]

A sentiment I believe I share. Slavery- this day in age...

[Science experiments were definitely better, yep.]

[hejhej]

Your life will be much easier if you just avoid them.

[aweskerdidit]

I will at that.
