Eric Sikes hated his life, he hated the place where he worked, The Weyland-Yutani owned mining colony located on a planet deep in the outer veil. He hated ninety five percent of his co-workers, and the remaining five percent he was fairly indifferent to.
He was working on a busted drilling module when he decided to take a break. He took out a candy bar un-wrapped it and began to eat it. When he heard that voice. The voice that belonged to the man he hated the most, his supervisor Bayliss.
"Are you getting paid to work or chew candy bars, huh?" Bayliss demanded.
"I'm taking a break." Sikes replied angrily.
"Did I tell you could take a break?" Bayliss demanded.
"No, but not a big surprise seeing as how you run this place like a nazi runs a death camp!" Sikes replied.
"One more smart comment like that and you'll find yourself on a transport going back to Earth with a pink slip in your shorts. Now get back to work!" Bayliss ordered.
'I know where I'd like you to go to...' Sikes thought to himself. But he was interrupted by the sound of an alarm going off.
"Intruder alert! Intruder alert!" The computer reported indifferently. "Unknown life form movement in section 4 level 3."
'Hey that's right near me.' Sikes thought to himself suddenly frightened. He dropped the candy bar and got up. He looked around the place.
"Computer?" Sikes said nervously. "How far is movement from machine shop 5 section 4 level 2?"
"Five meters." The computer replied.
"What? That can't be I'd see any intruders..." Then Sikes looked up to the ceiling the next thing he saw was a horrible looking sleek black hand coming at his face from the ceiling.
When Sikes regained consciousness he realized he was bound to the wall. He looked around. He didn't recognize where he was. Seeing the entire place was covered in with this strange substance, that reminded him of a spider web. He looked and saw a group of his co-workers bound to the wall. He saw Keller with a strange crab like creature holding on to his face, he looked to see Wilson he was dead his chest torn open. And he saw Arliss he didn't have any weird creature on his face or his chest torn open but was barely conscious, and was moaning something, about how he could feel something moving around inside him. Sikes then looked down to the ground to see a large egg siting there. It was strange it seem to have a cross-shaped slit on the top of it. The egg opened, and Sikes could see something moving inside, the next thing he saw was something jumping up at this face.
Eric Sikes hated his life and nearly everything in it. Which was a shame seeing how short it was. So the moral of this story is life is too short to hate it and everything in it.
