The plane landed on the runway and quickly moved to the side in case another plane had to land. There they waited on the runway for nearly an hour as the pilot tried to establish communication.
If Nick was still in the NIA, he would've flashed his badge and demanded they all leave via the emergency exit immediately. Sadly, he wasn't an NIA agent anymore and had to wait.
After a full hour of waiting, the pilot addressed the people.
"Hello, ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. It appears that Raccoon City is in the middle of some crisis and we won't be able to dock at the terminal. Sadly, we also don't have the fuel to take off and land at another airport. Seeing that receiving help is unlikely, we will be exiting via the emergency exit. Thank you for your patience."
Worried murmurs erupted from the plane while Nick turned his Curse up. It'd be better if the danger was attracted to him instead of these random people.
The flight attendant and the nearby passengers ripped open the emergency door and an inflatable slide unfurled. The people began exiting. Nick pushed past a few people, resulting in angry looks, but he was doing this for their safety.
As he slid down the slide, he was immediately proven right to leave quickly. A group of four men in hi-vis jackets were quickly running at the exiting passengers.
"Ah, airport workers! Excuse me, we need help!" a blonde woman in her early twenties shouted out.
As they got close, she noticed something was off. They were covered in blood, especially around the mouth, and they ran quite strangely. It was only when they were ten feet from her that she realized something was wrong, and it was too late to react.
The zombie opened up its rotten mouth and lunged forward, prepared to bite off the woman's nose, only to feel a vice-like grip around the back of its neck!
The woman screamed in terror and fell back, watching the zombie chomp the air at her. That's when Nick acted. Lifting the zombie up high with one hand, he slammed it skull first into the ground, killing it!
No longer being an NIA agent meant he could no longer travel with weapons. Thankfully, Nick managed to sneak his Exosuit through security by claiming he was disabled and that it was an AMS that allowed him to walk.
Micro didnt even need to alter Nick's government status to disabled as he was still register as such from the Edward Kim drive by.
Another hi-vis zombie tried to chomp at Nick, only for Nick's hand to slide under its chin and lift it up. He then choke-slammed the zombie into the floor like a WWE wrestler and shattered its skull.
"Freeze right there! Stop!" By now, the sky marshal got off the plane and drew his gun, but instead of pointing it at the zombies he leveled it directly at Nick!
The man didn't see the zombies biting at the woman, only Nick slamming what appeared to be people into the ground.
Letting out a sigh, Nick lifted his hand up. Another zombie tried to lunge at him, but he simply back-stepped and tripped it, all while still having his hands up.
"You as well, freeze!" He said yelling at the zombie, his order obviously ignored.
"HEY, I SAID FREEZE!" the sky marshal was screaming at the zombie to no avail, the zombies constantly chomping at the elusive Nick.
Tired of having to face not only zombies but a gun, Nick evade the zombies before kicking one harshly in the Air Marshall's direction. Quickly doing the same to the other one.
Hearing the man screaming, the two zombies focused on him instead of Nick. The screaming Marshal, left with no other choice, began unloading his gun into them only for them to stagger slightly!
They were upon him in an instant. He was desperately dry firing an empty gun as they grabbed at his clothing to rip him to shredds.
Just as they were about to bite down, Nick reached forward and grabbed the two zombies by their necks and lifted them off the floor like helpless kittens.
With a slight whirl from his Exosuit, Nick slammed the two zombie skulls together, shattering both of them.
Nick's natural strength was slightly higher than that of his Exosuit, but he still used the machine in the battle. For one, when he actually uses his natural strength it would be masked by the suit, and secondly using the suit doesn't drain Nick's stamina.
Sure, Nick naturally could run faster than a car but he's still going to drive. Why waste the energy when he'd need it if an actually situation occurred?
"You lot stay here and form a defensive perimeter, have those still in the plane to remain inside for the time being. My drones will come by to pick you up. And if more do show up, aim for the head!"
Opening his phone, Nick texted Micro the location of the plane. He heard them asking questions or pleading that he stayed, but Nick ran off towards where his GPS pointed: the Raccoon City Police Department! Nick was planning on absorbing something, not the tyrant, but instead a Licker!
The lickers were strong, fast, and durable but also killable. Nick didn't plan on fighting the Tyrant monster known as Mr. X, for one it had insane regeneration and durability.
He had no weapons and didn't see himself killing that thing, but the Licker should be easy. Secondly, he wanted the Licker's abilities over the tyrant. Wall-crawling, enhanced hearing, claws, and a tongue attack were more alluring than Mr. X's healing and super durability.
The reason why Mr. X's healing wasn't alluring was because Nick knew of a way to gain a permanent healing factor outside of the abortion slot, the G virus!
There was a character who got infected and then cured of the G virus, leaving them un-mutated but still keeping a powerful regeneration ability!
Exiting the airport's parking lot, Nick saw the entire city in chaos. 90% of the city's people were turned into cannibals trying to turn the rest as well. Shaking his head at the madness of the scene, Nick got to work.
Activating his anti-gravity harness, making him weightless, Nick lightly jumped up and climbed to the roof of a building before turning it off.
Up on the roof, he was able to see the police department far off into the city. Nick's drones were blaring their message, and his large drones could be seen ferrying people out of the city.
The reason he didn't weaponize the drones and use them to eliminate the zombies was for two reasons: one, it wouldn't make a difference as this entire city would be bombed in a few days. Secondly, Nick knew the world wouldn't take kindly to a multi-millionaire having an entire army of drones shooting at human-esque targets.
Nick planned on unveiling his weaponized drones during the attack on New York. It wouldn't matter then if the people disagreed with Nick or not, as the effects would speak for themselves.
Hopping from rooftop to rooftop, Nick managed to reach the gates of the police department and saw that the sliding lock had already been activated.
"Does that mean Claire or Leon have already made it inside?" Nick was a huge fan of Resident Evil 2. He remembered the game's plot well enough that he was fully confident in bagging an Licker.
With the gate locked, Nick was unperturbed. He simply hopped over the fence and into the small courtyard.
"Time to meet Mr. X..."
