Hey everyone, this is the very first time I've made a fanfic so let me know what you think! I've been writing for several years and have even taken writing classes so I hope my writing will reflect that for this story. This is also the first time I've written a story based on the Alien movie triology, so this will be a new adventure so to speak. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the prequel of this story. Plot wise I have a few ideas but nothing is set in stone so everything depends on the amount of support I get. If you guys really like the first part and I get alot of good reviews and favorites then I will continue to work on the story, feel free to leave constructive criticism and tips for how I can improve my story if you feel like helping me out. I am also writing this in the first-person POV, if you think the story would be better through third-person then feel free to let me know! Well enough of that, enjoy Left Behind!

Breeeeemm... Breeeeemmmm... "Emergency...Emergency!"

"Jack!", "Jack we got wounded inside help me open this door!" I was on another world at that very moment. For some strange reason I couldn't seem to draw my attention away from the muzzle flash of the turrets as they continually, round after round, put hot lead into the enemy. Round after round an xeno dropped and new one appeared.

"Damnit Jack snap out of it!" It took me awhile to realilze that someone was calling my name but as I did everything else didn't matter, instantly I snapped into action dropping my gun to my side and without a word I grabbed onto the outer door and pulled as hard as I could.

"Pull harder!" The seargent shouted above the turret gunfire, I nodded and put everything I had into opening that door and just as it seemed liked the door would never open the dust and grime which had collected on the outer front of the door immediately blew away as the thick metal was yanked open. Immediately trapped volcanic like flames burst from inside the room billowing out into the halls like an angry dragon releasing its rage onto the marines. I had been pulling away from the door giving me time to shuffle out of the way but the poor seargent had been caught in the middle of it, he ran this way and that completely surrounded in the orange death screaming like no grown man ever should. None of the marines around us had fire disposal devices except for a single fireproof blanket which Corporal Mikeson had grabbed from the medical quarters awhile back, Mikeson tried to pat the seargent down but he couldn't get the Seargent to drop down and after what seemed like hours the Seargent finally dropped to his stomach and began to roll while Mikeson finally put the fire out. One of the other medics began to treat his wounds while I ran headfirst through the doorway into the boiling inferno that was once a crews quarters. I instinctively reached for my shoulder light but stopped halfway as the fire was providing plenty of light, it was the heat and smoke that caught my attention. I began to bend over in a fit of coughing and wheezing when a sharp scream emitted from inside one of the adjacent rooms.

"Jack, the evac ship is here we gotta move now!" It was Madsen, one of the heavy-gunners who appeared in the door way "Mavis got the sarge patched up, if we don't leave we'll become food for those things now let's go!" I quickly glanced back at Madsen who was obvlivious to what was going on behind him, several dozens of xeno's were crawling through the hallway towards our position. Three turrets were all that was protecting us from them, we had run out of ammo in our assault with the queen and her drones awhile back leaving us with nothing but the clothes on our back. Our only hope of survival depended on the ship and if anyone wasn't on board when it took off then they were to be left behind. I nodded and took a step toward the him when the same scream flooded the room for the second time,

"Madsen, we may have a survivor back there. Keep everyone here until I get back!" I shouted above the turret fire and the sound of the ship collapsing all around us,

"Alright but make it quick, we can''t hold them forever!" He shouted back before heading out into the hallway. I realized that I had no time left so without any hesitation I bolted through the flames into the back bedroom. A blonde haired women in a once white labcoat who looked to be in her late twenties was screaming in a corner, he began to approach her and then stopped. An xeno was trying to get to her, the scientist in her haste had pulled a bunk bed in front of herself which was now blocking her from the creature. I looked down at my rifle hoping for more bullets but found none. Realizing that I would have to get creative I looked around the surrounding area for something to use. The alien, upon entering the room, had completely knocked the door off of it's sliding track, "This would have to do" I thought alloud as I quickly grabbed the door and braced myself against it. I took a single deep breathe before I let out a war-like shout and immediately rushed at the beast using the door as a sort of shield. Luckily for me it had worked, the creature was now pinned against the wall and door giving the women a chance to make a break for the marines outside.

"Go on! Ugh... Go!" I shouted through my gritted teeth, "Hurry!" She stopped screaming and crawled out from her corner, she stopped and mouthed the words "Thank you." to me before running out. The creature which was now enraged at the loss of his host began to use it's tail to try and stab at me from the other side, I saw this and ducked out of the way before a loud Kling! Came from the door. Still pushing with all my might, I made one final push before bolting for the doorway, I was almost there before felt an immense force from behind me. I didn't see the entire door coming at me from behind, strong bastards... Instantly I was thrown accross the room and was out cold the minute I hit the wall. The sound of yelling and shooting continued for some time before my ears finally shutdown along with the rest of me. Darkness...

Well I hope you enjoyed the Prequel to the story, this took quite some time to think of and get down so I hope it was worth your time! I'm not sure if 1,200 words is enough for a chapter but seeing is how this is the prequel the following chapters will be much longer. If you enjoyed the prequel then give me some support and if I see that this is popular enough I'll carve out Chapter 1 for you to enjoy. Well thanks guys!
