Leon
Leon rushed for the door, but couldn't get through. The knob was turning, but he couldn't get it to open... It seemed like something was barricading it from the outside.

Leon thought about ramming the door with his shoulder. Hopefully that would break the door off the hinges. Then he remembered something else. In all the confusion of being attacked he forgot to search the building. Leon proceeded to search the house, every bit of it, Perhaps he would find a useful item inside. More importantly, perhaps the key to the truck outside was in the house.

I-no vaulted over the talkative one in midair, landing a short distance away in a crouch. "Hmph...you two are no fun...boring..." She stood up and sighed, her back towards them. "Sorry, but I don't like brutish guys...all muscle and no brains...later!"
With that said, she hunkered down and aimed to take off down the road towards the town, almost gliding across the ground.

X thought quickly. If the enemy machines had disengaged, then they may be in full recall mode. X made a dash for the ramp. If he could get on board, maybe he could bring the thing down from the inside.

Ryu stared in shock at the seemingly lifeless tyrant. It was easily twice the size of him but where the hell could he go. He would have to make a stand, but he drew his sort, which shook his hand, he could feel some sort of energy pulsating throughout it, the orgin of the force was however unknown to him still.
As Ryu stood into a defenesive position, ready to counter attack any movement the creature made, he look for possible escape routes.

Leon
Leon checked through the house for anything of use. His initial investigations in the cabinets in the kitchen yielded a some local currency, called pesetas. He had no idea what the exchange rate was, or what he would do with money exactly, but supposed it never hurt to have some.
Leon obtains 1000 Ptas!
Finding nothing else of note in the kitchen, he headed toward the rooms behind the fireplace. Confronted with both a set of stairs to the second floor and a small hallway leading toward a room in the back of the house, Leon first headed down the hallway. When he looked through what should have been the doorway to a room, though, he was forced to restrain his gag reflex once again.
Leon was confronted with a truly gruesome sight: The entire back room was filled with bones and rotting flesh. It didn't take much examination to determine that they were human corpses either. He had mostly managed to tune out the rotting meat smell that he had first found unpleasant, but that had become utterly impossible here, and the stench of the dead hit him like a wall and sent him reeling. The bones were stacked floor to ceiling, and thousands of flies and maggots crawled all over the mass, feasting on the rot. Leon didn't even attempt to search the pile; it was too disturbing to try to root through the mass of death to try to find items of value.
Leon turned away from the grotesque scene, and instead ascended the stairs. He was grateful for the relatively fresh air; though the smell of rot lingered everywhere in the house, it was far worse downstairs. Leon found a small bedroom atop the stairs. A small box of 9mm bullets sat atop the nightstand, but try as he might, Leon could not find any guns anywhere in the house. Despite that, he took the extra ammo; it was the right caliber for his handgun, and no harm ever came of having too many bullets. If nothing else, Raccoon City taught him that lesson. As Leon turned to head back down the stairs, he glanced out the window. Down below, he could see several other men milling about, holding various farming tools. They seemed to be waiting for something, and Leon had the distinct impression that something was him...

I-No
I-No attempts to escape... [3] Success!

X
X ran for the carrier as fast as he could muster. The distance to cover wasn't all that far, and he soon was running beneath the shadow of the behemoth towards the ramp. He reached the edge of the ramp just as the last of the mechanoids had retreated inside. The interior was lit by blindingly bright lights, but he saw a massive shadow blacking out a significant potion of them at the top of the ramp.
"It's about time you arrived," said an unfamiliar voice from that shadow, "I was beginning to think we would have to attack another location in order to draw you out. While that would be fun, it would also be quite a nuisance as well."

Ryu
As Ryu stood still, the creature continued to search with its hollow eyes, as if trying to see without the proper tools. He adopted the defensive position, waiting for it to make the first move... And then suddenly, the trembling of the Dragon Sword intensified to the point where the blade was vibrating so hard it had begin to "sing."
And then all hell broke loose.
Ryu dove to the side as the monster charged headlong at the source of the sound. He was narrowly missed by the attack, and the creature kept plowing along for several yards until in completely bashed through one of the support pillars. Chunks of rubble fell over the monster, but it shrugged it off as if nothing had happened. It began to scan the area once again with its hollow eyes, this time stomping off in one direction, trying to find the source of the sound it had heard.
Ryu once again remained stock still. His blade had ceased its song, but it still trembled in his hand, almost as if imploring him to action...

X glared. He raised his weapon to the shadow and charged it up. "Who are you?!?! Show yourself!"

I-no glanced back as she glided along the roadway, tipping her hat down a bit as a faint chuckle escaped her throat.
Now I just gotta find some chump to play for a sap and get those two back for me...
She turned back forward and sped towards the village...she just hoped there were some humans in this place...

The monster that stood before Ryu reared back and let out a thundering roar, Ryu heard the sound of breaking glass behind him, it was obvious it was about to charge him again and if he did not retaliate he would not be so lucky as he had been before. Ryu sense there was enough room for him to flip behind the creatures back, he took a forward and the smell of the creatures breath rang through out his lungs, he hopefully now had enough distance to get up the train...
As the creature charged Ryu pivoted and struck the ground, sending him off and towards the stationary train, he seemingly flawlessly struck it with his right foot, and began his ascent up it.
Below him he heard the mighty crash, and roars of frustration, indicating that the monster had struck the train, undoubtedly denting it. Ryu quickly reached the peak of his height, kicking off the train, he landed on the giants back.
It looked as if there were several deep scars and cuts, one however seemed to give off an aura of power, this was the one Ryu chose to sink his sword into, hopefully substaining injury to this "thing".

Before rushing outside, Leon stopped to think over his options. The first farmer was easy to dispatch. The farmers that were outside looked similar, and were probably just as easy to defeat. However he was smart enough to not rush into a battle when he was outnumbered. From what he could tell, none of the farmers outside had guns. They appeared to be holding normal farming equipment. Also, it appeared that none of farmers had noticed that Leon was in the window looking out at them.
Leon had a height advantage. He had known that being above your enemy is good, since the enemy can rarely hit you unless they had a firearm. His enemies weren't too far, and looked like they were within firing range. Leon had an idea and he was going to try to use his advantage.
First, Leon slowly, carefully, and quietly, opened up the window. He then took out his Pistol and aimed at the unsuspecting farmers outside. He then fired several bullets at the closest farmer. If he could take out the farmers from up here, he would not have to expose himself to their weaponry. Therefore, he believed himself to be perfectly safe.

X
In response, the massive figure leapt from the interior of the carrier down to street level, causing X to have to jump backwards in order to avoid being crushed beneath its massive frame. More cracks were created in the road surface as its feet impacted the surface, and now that it was in ambient light, X could see why it was so massive in the first place.
The figure before him was actually mostly a heavily modified Chimera class Ride Armor, the most basic type developed for use by the Maverick Hunters. X now recognized its occupant as the infamous maverick known as Vile. Vile had been one of Sigma's top lieutenants while he was in charge of the Maverick Hunters, but even then had been considered a dangerous loose cannon due to his exceptionally brutal and indiscriminate methods. Few were surprised when he followed his leader's example and turned Maverick; he was practically on the verge of being declared maverick himself at the time, anyway.
"Shame," said Vile, "I was hoping this attack would have brought Zero to me. Instead, I get you, an obsolete piece of junk who thinks he's a hero. I suppose you were expecting to confront Sigma? Well he doesn't have the time to waste on insects like you."
"I, however, revel in my role as the destroyer, and I'll be happy to send you to the scrap heap for him." Vile laughed, and as he did so, the entire torso of his Ride Armor appeared to follow suit.
"In fact," he continued, spreading the arms of his Ride Armor, "Just to show you how powerless you really are, I'll even let you take the first shot!"

I-No
I-No headed further on toward the village proper, leaving the isolated shack behind. However, as she drew nearer, she saw that she very well may be in for more than she could handle this time around.
Even from a distance, she could easily tell that the majority of the village's inhabitants were not human. They ran the gamut of body forms, too; at least one was similar to the creatures she had encountered only a short while ago, another appeared to be a green-skinned woman sprouting from a plant, one seemed to be an almost stereotypical-looking ghost, and one was even a walking corpse. They mingled and interacted freely with the more human-seeming residents, but even they seemed a little... off, though it was tough to identify what gave her that impression at this distance.
