(Eren reading the book)
The Umbrella Corporation
Industry: Conglomerate
Fate: Bankruptcy
Founded: 1968
Founder: Oswell E. Spencer, James Marcus, Edward Ashford
Defunct: 2003
Headquarters: Europe
Area served: Global
Umbrella was a multinational conglomerate with subsidiaries active in various industries from 1968 to the early 2000s. Umbrella had influence in cosmetics, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, industrial machines, consumer products, health foods, transportation, and tourism. Umbrella's subsidiaries were typical for large corporations, though it was purposely built to cover up illegal activities.
Soon after opening Umbrella Pharmaceuticals, Umbrella began developing biological weaponry for militaries worldwide as part of a conspiracy to accumulate deadly viruses prohibited by the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention. Umbrella Pharmaceuticals covered their true intentions by researching vaccines for the same viruses as a front.
Umbrella's true goal wasn't capitalist monopolization but eugenics. This fact was known only to corporate executives who shared the belief that their principal objective was funding the Wesker Project – to birth a new race of virally-enhanced superhumans.
Eren: That's the fault of the Umbrella Corporation.
Lara: But they're trying to solve it. I saw some forces of the Umbrella Corporation protecting people, and one of them protected me.
Eren: I don't mind whose fault it is, but we have to solve it.
Lara: I hear strange noises outside – like someone's firing bullets.
Eren: I think someone's alive here and fighting with zombies.
Lara: We have to help him.
Eren: I'll go see what's happening.
Lara: I'll come too.
Eren: No, you won't go outside. If something happens to you, what will I do?
Lara: But...
Eren: You will not go.
Lara: Okay, but take care of yourself.
(Then Eren takes a weapon for protection and goes outside. The scene is worst – a horde of zombies chasing a man and a girl. When Eren sees clearly, it's his sister Laf and the man protecting her.)
Eren: Oh shit! My sister's in danger. Laf, run fast to that house!
(Then Eren's sister runs and goes into the house to save herself. The man and Eren fight the zombies.)
Eren: Wow! The number of zombies is infinite. We have to run from this place.
Unknown: Ahh! I'm injured. Please help me.
Eren: (picks up the man on his back and runs to the house) Now we're safe for a while in this basement.
Laf: Ohhh! Eren, I've missed you a lot.
Eren: I have too, my little sister.
Unknown: Thanks for saving me.
Eren: But what's your name? Who are you? And thanks for saving my sister.
Unknown: I'm John, and I'm an agent of the Umbrella Corporation. My mission is to save people from zombies.
Lara: Wait – you're an agent of the Umbrella Corporation?
John: Yes.
Lara: If you work for that corporation, you know where the shelter is.
John: Yes, but I'm not sure if it's safe.
Lara: That means we can go to the shelters.
Eren: We can save ourselves.
John: But the route is very long, and we could be in danger.
Lara: Don't worry – I see a truck in the garage of this house.
Eren: But we have to fix it.
Lara: Hey, John, can you fix it?
John: Yes. I know a bit about mechanics; I can fix it.
John: Phew! Finally, it's complete.
Eren: Oh no! The front's broken – many are coming.
Hey, Lara, take some cans of food and water bottles. We have to go from here.
Lara: Okay! Laf, come – we have to go.
Laf: Okay.
Eren: John, get in – engine's ready. All of you, come fast and sit.
(After they sit, they drive the truck fast on the road. Many zombies attack the truck. Suddenly, a monster appears.)
