Upon hearing a loud yelling, Claire grabbed Sherry's hand and ran until they were stopped by a raging current. Claire tossed her shotgun and police radio across the current.

"Sherry climb on to my back. The current looks safe enough to walk across as long as I keep hold of those bars."

She carefully climbed into the current, keeping a tight grip on the bars lining the sewer tunnel while walking across. She made it halfway across the culvert, only to have the current pull Sherry off her back, sweeping her out of Claire's view. She pushed her way through the sewage water and pulled herself out onto the other side. Claire looked around to see if anything had been following them, then called out to Sherry.

"Sherry can you hear me?"

She heard Sherry yelling in the distance.

"Stay where you are! I'll find you!"

She heard footsteps behind her and turned around, glad to see another police officer walking toward her. Claire ran toward him, hoping to get help to search for Sherry. She immediately stopped when the police officer pointed his service revolver at Claire.

"Please I need help! A girl named Sherry…"

The police officer interrupted her.

"Trasspaserr! You teenager vanal stuff!"

The officer directed Claire to walk in front of him, keeping his revolver trained on her.

"Tak you control rum! Wait for backup! Move now!"

Claire followed the officer's instructions, biding her time, hoping she could reason with him. After a few minutes of walking they reached what looked like an operating control room for the sewer system.

"Trasspaserr have weapon, trasspaserr dangeross."

The police officer hit Claire over the head with his revolver, knocking her unconscious. When she came to her hands were tied behind one of the smaller pipes lining the wall of the control room. Now that she could see better in the room's florescent lighting, Claire realized the officer wasn't suffering from a concussion, but was slowly turning into a zombie.
The shotgun and police radio that Leon Kennedy had given her were sitting on a metal table. When the infected officer heard Leon trying to contact her through the radio he emptied the revolver's bullets onto the floor and smashed the radio with the butt of the revolver.

"Signal stop! Backup show up now! Trasspaserr go jail!

Claire noticed the officer was turned away from her, staring off into space and standing next to another sewer culvert, not having bothered to pick up the revolver bullets from the floor. Using the training she got from her brother Chris, she quickly untied the ropes and quietly walked up behind him, grabbing the radio from his belt, then used all her strength to push him into the water. She grabbed the shotgun from the table and quickly bolted out of the room before the officer could get out of the water. Once she was out of harm's way she immediately contacted Leon to tell her what happened.

"I ran into a crazed officer that was infected with whatever the other officers were infected with. I also found a little girl named Sherry Birkin, but we got separated. I'm going to go look for her."

Claire turned off her radio.

"Claire? Claire wait!"

Leon took a deep breath.

"Why doesn't anyone listen to me?"
