New York City
2156 AD
The humans fought the creatures for a long, gruelling month. The creatures spread at an incredible rate, the Colonial Marines and local police forces were on the razors edge to hold them back. But no matter how many of the nests they destroyed, they would come back in full strength.
Chaos. Utter chaos.
No one knew exactly how the creatures arrived on Earth. But rumour had it that the Weyland-Yutani Corporation had something to do with it. It underestimated the alien species it ever so longed to have. Someone screwed up, and the rest of the city was paying for it.
The aliens were nesting in random locations, the Marines were called everywhere. Shopping malls, apartment buildings, factories, skyscrapers everywhere. They went in and planted a bomb in the Queen Alien's chamber, retreated to the exits burning the nest as they went as they knew the aliens were afraid of fire. They evacuated the area and blew down building containing the nest. It was effective but somehow an alien will go and start a new nest elsewhere.
The Marines solider count was dropping as fast as the population. The aliens were spreading to residential areas; soldier (or drone) aliens were reported ambushing people as they entered their homes. The police could not hold them back for their inferior pistols were no substitute for the Marines heavy duty weaponry.
Nothing the Marines tried seemed to slow the alien infestation down, the aliens just kept spreading and spreading. The American government had no choice but to use their last resort. They had an experimental bomb which they created for any form of contagion in a populated area. Giving the circumstances, they were prepared to use it.
All the welcome citizens of New York were given seats on a spacecraft to leave for the orbiting space stations. Millions of people were lifted off the planet to safety.
All those not welcome on the spacecrafts were told to go into a bunker or a metal walled establishment. People panicked, they feared this to be the end of the world. Crowds formed in the streets, blocking roads to get to shelters, the police could do nothing to stop them. Most of their forces were depleted in the effort to stop the aliens.
The Marines had pulled out for they weren't as expendable as the local authorities. They were to be given a long rest for a possible recovery operation after the bombs effects had ceased.
The crowds would become violent, pushing and shoving, brawls began to form, and some people were killed. The crowds lasted for days.
It was on October 21st that the gigantic struggle for New York City between human and alien ended. At 7:50pm, the bomb hit.
