PASSENGER'S DIARY
Passenger's Diary
July 14th
Orders came from the boss today. Looks like we're in charge of
investigating the remains of the Arklay Mountains laboratory. We're
moving in two groups, with us in the initial group, assigned to start
checking what's left of the abandoned experiment.
July 16th
Unfortunately, the test production of B.O.W. (Type-Y139) had to be
suspended because of this investigation. It's the same with Type-Y139 .
There's still so much we don't know about responses to the crustacean
t-virus. There's a lot of interesting research left...
Depending on the species and nurturing conditions, only minute doses of
"t" bring about remarkable changes in solidity, size, multiplication of
internal toxins and brain development. If these effects can be
controlled, a powerful weapon could be produced. But the sudden
development of the shell results in the corresponding fragility.
Certain areas become exceedingly week. Problematically, one of these
areas is in the head carapace.
This lab we are going to - were they pursuing the same research? It
would certainly help to find data and samples that would help us in our
research.
The day is finally approaching... I am growing more anxious.
The Raccoon City newspapers and TV stations are fill of reports about
the bizzare murders in the suburbs. It can't be the virus, can it? If
it is... No, I can't think of that right now. I have to concentrate on
this imvestigation and make sure it goes smoothly.

NOTE FROM CONDUCTOR
Note from Conductor
The key card for the Driver's Compartment is in my bag as always. But I
need the other guy's damn key too to open the damn thing. But it looks
like I've lost it somewhere. If it was like a normal key, someone sure
would be sure to turn it in, but this key is different...
I'll look for it, too, but if you find it, please hand it in.
Thanks in advance.

MARCUS' DIARY 1
Marcus' Diary 1
December 4th
We finally did it... the new virus! We have called it "Progenitor". I
want to carry it back and start detailed investigations immediately.
March 23rd
Spencer says he's going to start a company.
Well, I don't care, as long as I can continue my research into the
"Progenitor".
He can do what he likes...
August 19th
Spencer keeps asking me to be the director of his new Training
facility.
Maybe it's because of the business, but he's becoming intolerably
pushy. But, maybe I can turn this into my advantage. I need a special
facility to properly explore all the virus' secrets. A place where no
one can get in my way...
November 30th
Damn that Spencer... He came to complain to me again today. He thinks
of "Progenitor" as nothing more than a money-spinning tool. Fool! But
if his influence continues to grow, it can only be bad for my research.
If I'm to properly develop "Progenitor", I must strengthen my own
position, too.
September 19th
At last...
I've discovered a way to build a new virus type with "Progenitor" as a
base.
Mixing it with the leech DNA was the breakthrough I needed... I call
this new virus "t" for "tyrant".
October 23rd
It's no good!
I can't hope for real progress experimenting on mere rodents.
Only humans can be a proper mammalian subject for experiments.
Otherwise, I'll never make any real progress...
November 15th
Someone seems to suspect of my experiments...
...but perhaps it's just my imagination.
Well, if anyone does get too close, they may find themselves
unexpectedly "assisting" in my research!
January 13th
At last, they are ready. My wonderful leeches!
Those of low intelligence, they will never have the privilege of
tasting this sense of joy and satisfaction! Now, finally I can move
against Spencer. Soon I will control everything...
January 31st
The devices I set to protect my work have been disturbed.
It appears someone came looking for the "t" and the leeches. Fool.
No doubt the work of Spencer's group.
February 11th
Today, I again found evidence of tampering around the entrance to the
labs. If that's what they're after, I must find a suitable way to deal
with them. Perhaps I should have William and Albert smoke out the
pests...
Those two are the only ones I trust. Apart from my beloved leeches, of
course. But Spencer... It wouldn't end there, would it?
I will announce the "t" at the next directors meeting, and collect my
rewards...
ASSISTANT DIRECTOR'S DIARY
Assistant Director's Diary
September 2nd
A useless bunch of trainees, as always. Where does headquarters find
these idiots? We did get a couple of decent ones, though, so we can't
complain, I guess. William and Albert. They might have a future.
September 25th
Scholar Will. Practical Al. They really are opposites.
And they're always competitive in everything they do. There's something
ruthless and cruel about them both.
October 7th
Got a sudden call from the Director. It was to tell me to encourage a
rivalry between those two! It's the first time since this Training
facility was built that Director Marcus has shown interest in anything
other than his research.
Well, whatever. Orders are orders. I'm going to have them tearing at
each other's throats.
ABOUT THE POWER REGULATOR
About the Power Regulator
Due to the recent lighting strike, the power regulator continues to be
inoperative. I wouldn't really matter about the power, except for the
fact that the boiler room equipment is on the same grid. The equipment
is so run down. I'll probably have to have it fixed up all the time. If
you wish to exit, rapidly set the indicator to 70. Check first though
that everything is connected to the chain.

MANAGEMENT TRAINEES' DIARY
Management Trainee's Diary
What is it that Director Marcus is researching all all the time? And
what's with his weird interest in leeches? Interest...? Seems more like
love at times... Rumor has it that there's something dangerous about
those leeches. It is true that when Dennis just touched one he got ill
with a fever.
Again today...
There were these horrible moans. Beyond that door.
"Let sleeping dogs ..."
No way'll go near them.
Evin if the Director tells me, I no want to end up like Dennis.
That poor bastard.
Scratching and scratching. Makes me itch jost watching him.
Must maybe go
IF can but two
Dennis gone. I go
Hungry...
Help
Mom.

Trouble is unlikely, but I closed my babies up in a special capsule.
But it won't be sure if I can hold onto it myself. I'll hide it in that
place.
"To hide a leaf, put it in a forest".
To open the capsule, the special stripping agent is necessary. No way
Spencer's lackeys can figure out how to make it...

INVESTIGATOR'S REPORT
Investigator's Report
Dr. Marcus, co-founder, with President Spencer, of the Umbrella
Corporation. Dissappeared 20 years ago. The results of his research
have been kept under wraps for all that time.
The reason became clear at the Training facility run by Dr. Marcus...
...well, not here exactly, but underground.
When we ventured below, we understood...
There we found the evidence room of Dr. Marcus' research into the T-
virus prototype, "Progenitor." The evidence of years of hideous
experimentation that used many company employees as guinea pigs. We
cannot know how many were forced to become subjects, but based on the
evidence, no less that twenty individuals were involved; some of them
taken deliberately to keep the corporation's secret safe.
Where the Doctor is now, I don't know. But considering the recent rapid
growth of Umbrella Corporation, I can't imagine that this research is
continuing. No...his experiment lives and continues to grow in the
dark.
Those things, the "fruit" of his research, they will fill this
facility.
(The rest of the notebook pages are missing).
LEECH GROWTH RECORDS
Leech Growth Records
February 3rd, 1978
Administered "t" into 4 leeches. Their will to survive leads them first
to parasitism and predation. They then breed and multiply. Such a
single-minded biology makes them candidates for bio-weapons research.
Afterwards, no major changes observed.
February 10th, 1978
7 days since administration of "t". Rapid growth to double former size,
signs of transformation emerging. Spawning successful. They double
their numbers in one hour but their ravenous appetites lead them to
cannibalism. Hastened to increase food supply, but lost 2.
March 7th, 1978
Provided them with live feed, but lost half when the live food fought
back. However, the leeches are learning from experience, and are
beginning to exhibit group attack behavior. They are also ceasing
cannibalism. Their evolution is exceeding expectations.
April 22nd, 1978
The leechs no long exhibit individual behavior, even when not feeding.
They move as a collective. They consume everything I offer with
remarkable efficiency.
April 30th, 1978
An employee has stumbled onto my experiments. Can a human be a food
source? How will the leeches respond?
June 3rd, 1978
A day of worthy commeration. Today they began to mimick me!
Surely they recognize their father...
Wonderful children.
No one will take you away...
LABORATORY MANAGER'S DIARY
Laboratory Manager's Diary
Today, under Director Marcus' orders, I changed the platform entry
code. Later, I asked him what the source of the entry code was. He told
me it was based on something significant in his children's growth.
But, the director's a loner; he isn't married, and he sure doesn't have
any children...
What did he mean?

INVESTIGATOR'S REPORT 2
Investigator's Report 2
We should have finished with this dump a long time ago. When this all
started, did anyone expect that there would be guns blazing away like
this? We weren't told a thing about these creatures attacking us at the
briefing...
Guess they were a surprise to the head honchos, too. The things in the
woods - just starting to attack people. That had to be planned. Someone
deliberately scattered that virus, no doubt about it.
But the guards, our fellow soldiers, they must still be around...
Well, whatever. Don't have to worry about that anymore. What I've got
to worry about is whether to use the last bullet on myself or on a
friend...
That's the only decision I have to make.

Damn it! Why is normal industrial waste being delivered here? This is
an Umbrella Corporation facility. We can't deal with this volume of
material. Plus they're sending us contaminated materials that we can't
process. What are we supposed to do with it?
7/24
Well, looks like they're closing it down. Not surprising, using it like
they did. Had to be done, but... It was pretty sudden. It's not like
they cared until now. Anyway, as long as I get out of here, I don't
care what they do.
