I still have the original DA up on this site, but while I've sat back in the past and reflected upon what I did and started thinking of ways I might be able to improve upon what I've already created, hence the re-write. In addition to "Darkness Arises," I've also got a few stories planned for the "DA universe arc," which include: "Return to Darkness: The Proteus Strain" - This would be my official sequel to DA-R, which would take place around the same time as "Code: Veronica" and be set in Germany, where Jake and his group must go after a rogue Umbrella scientist seeking to create a virus all his own, which if released into the outlaying areas of course means "the shit hits the fan." "Downward Spiral: The Road to Raccoon City's Demise" - A prequel, side story and "sort of sequel" to DA-R all rolled into one, which is told through the eyes of R.P.D. S.W.A.T. officer David McGraw, which would basically explain what he's doing while Jake is off elsewhere in the city. "Springvale Outbreak" - A side story told through the eyes of a determined detective named Angela Cataldo, who is on a mission to bring Jake Cavanaugh to justice. Her mission takes her to nearby Springvale, which at the time is experiencing its own viral outbreak. "Decisions, Decisions" - For now, that is a working title. This would be another side story to the events of DA-R, where I would try to explain what happens to the other survivors from J's Bar after they are separated from Jake. "Epilogues of the Damned" - A fic based entirely around epilogues of the major players from the "Darkness Arises" arc, some of them partially inspired by the epilogues seen at the end of "Nemesis."
