September 30th, 1998...
It's a day I'll never forget.
The cop inside me died that day.
And that night, Raccoon City was wiped out. Thanks to the bioweapons created by Umbrella.
Somehow, I made it out. But too many others...weren't so lucky.

I was "asked" later to join a top-secret government program.
Not that I had a choice.
The training, the punishing missions nearly killed me.
But at least they kept my mind off everything.

If I could just forget what happened that night, the pain — even for a second.
This time, it can be different.
It has to.
