ALIEN: Hunter and Prey
Chapter two: Massacre
I move out of the cube shaped cage, I see that this area is surrounded by light and white, I go out of it to a corridor I notice that the top of this place a hole, I put myself inside, and maybe I could learn more about this humans. I move through, and I ask myself, where I am? The human home world is like this? If it is, why there is not an exit out of this building? If this the entire human world?, maybe I could use my inner mouth for absorbing some information, no…that sounds like nonsense, I know that the knowledge is in the head, but there is now way that they could communicate to me, or me getting the information I need through examining their though-organ, after all if I don't get them, how will I get them? So many questions, not even one forsaken way to answer them.
Suddenly I hear the strange sounds they make bellow me:
"Did you think that Johan really stolen that worm thing?"
"I dunno, the last thing I saw is that he an' this egghead friends leaved the place a few days ago"
"Let's not be so confident that the good ol 'Johan is to trust, after all did you see what he said about this thing? "it the perfect killing machine" what did that creep mean by that?"
"Well the man worked for Wayland-Yutani…so maybe…"
"What?"
"…what if…OH FUCK!"
"What?!"
"Don't you get it idiot?! What if that asshole genetically modifies that worm? To make it this desired perfect killing machine!"
The humans sounded nervous and panicked, I wonder if that involves me in some way. Whatever, I must find a way to escape, but first I need to see if they are a treat, first I need to test one alone to see if they can put a fight. I hear one of the voices in a relative distance of the other ones, "hey guys, I'm gonna take a leak" I follow the footsteps, and it takes me to a dead end, I notice that there is an opening bellow me but protected by metal bars, I punch trough them and I see that the creature is seated on something white. He screams as I descend to "test" him, "Y-your head! The w-w-worm! HELP, HELP ME!" I see that he doesn't want to fight. "GUYS HELP HE-"I silence the disgusting creature with a powerful punch to the head creating a hole in it, instantly killing him. I climb to the hole I made but I hear the door opening while I put my tail up.
"HOLY SHIT!" DID…did you see that?"
"Aron…this head, look at this fucking hole man!"
"Looks like that…thing punched this forehead so hard that not only dented it, it crushed this skull"
"…did you saw this tail man?! This thing is HUGE! Man sized shit!"
"What if Johan didn't leaved with this creature?"
"That damn ass-swipe! He just forgotten 'bout this monster or what?!"
"let's go…we…we need to be alert…shit, this is fucking bad"
They were obviously talking to each other…maybe it was not an intelligent idea to kill one, I should have killed them all! Whatever, I must wait until one of them makes the mistake of either go to kill me, or one of them is alone, yes what a great idea, I can demoralize them, one by one.
The next day
I see from the top that the humans are on a place with a medium structure with a flat rectangle on the top of a tube, similar structures around it, seats, I notice that I could kill them all, but then I hear a sound, like a "beep" then I see a human, maybe the leader with a strange machine in this hand.
"guys, this is a motion tracker, a marine that was my friend died and gave me this as a gift, maybe we could use it for tracking this large bitch, I theorize that he is in the ducts, I will follow the tracks above me and one of you will kill it, but we need a weapon, any ideas?"
"Well, we could use a gun, any of you has one?"
"I have a shotgun, I brought it up 'cause Johan told us about the alien signal, but then I thought it was pointless 'cause I think it won't work well in space, well here is my chance, I will blow this motherfucker for killin' Aron!"
"Careful! If you blow anything important on the ship we would cause more damage than this thing! In fact…is it is tempering with something on the ship?"
"Not that I could see…wait the 'tracker is beeping…put it on the ceiling!"
The leader puts it to the hole where I am! And the beeps are getting more and faster! THEY KNOW I AM HERE!
"SHIT LETS GET THE FUCK OUT!"
They run…I expected them to rip the small bars free and attempt to attack, maybe they are weak without some sort of weapons. Wait…that device, it can signal my presence! Humans are more resourceful that I ever imagined, to create such machine, it's just impossible for me to know how to make one of those things, but I have a thing they don't, strength, I have agility, I must lure one of them to me, alone first need to destroy the lights. I get out of the ceiling and I see that the lights are touchable, also with a little of heat, I break it with my tail, interesting…this is really the source of illumination.
I decide to go to the corridor again, I touch some of the pipes to reveal some kind of white cloud, a very hot one…that's it! I use It to perform a kill, first I need to lure one of them, then I punch one of the pipes and done! I get back on my upper hideout, I know the place where I could lure them...
I see that they are on different rooms, each one with those rest-cubes, and each one with lights, I decide to take my time after all…the more slow, stealthy, and dramatic, the more depress and stupid they become the more easy and satisfying the kill. One of them has a strange thing: two barrels that are joined, a handle in the back, oh…he is the leader, I deal with him later. I go to the one with strange things in this eyes, small windows being held by two hears, weird. He also has a large rod, this function it's rather obvious, as I see he use it right now; he presses a button and a strange light comes from the tip, some kind of close quarter weapon, fool, do you think I will really be that easy to take down?, I will lure him out of this room. I punch the panel at my hands and I descend down, the human looks up, and screams, I go to the hole again, causing the most notice to lure them to the pipe corridor. He screams to this fellow humans NO! That was not the plan!
"HEY! The alien! I know where it is going come here guys! We got that shithead!"
They go, along with the leader I am very close…just a little more, YES!
"Why don't you give me my damn shotgun mike?!"
"Cause I can handle my aim, you take the 'tracker"
"I remove the plate slowly and I exit slowly, crawling in the ceiling, then entering to position my tail at the exit and I with my memory alone I slash the tube and the clouds escape, I get out of the hole and I destroy the lights,
"THERE HE IS!"
"That thing…fooled us?!"
What a coincidence the one with the rod tries to take me down by pointing that at me, and the white thing just burned him, the light of the stick illuminates the dark corridor and that facilitates the vision (to say the least I could see in the dark better than them) and I grab this hand I rip it and I bite this head with my tongue. And he falls, I won…I have already killed three, there is only two left. In the darkness I escape, but then I notice that they run but they are not going to their rooms, in fact they do not go to the places they use to…they are trying to escape!
"We gotta escape!"
"DAMN! Where is the shuttle?!"
"I know where it is follow me!"
They run! Cowards, I know that drones are not the faster there is, but I will not let them escape! Suddenly I hear something…like a voice…and then a familiar one;
"ATTENTION…REMAINING CREW MENBES OF THE CRINTIAN, THIS IS A MESSAGE FROM DOCTOR ALFRED JOHAN"
"Hello, dear survivors, if you hear this that minds two things: number one: my beloved "Xenomorph" has grown and showed to the camera this talents, number two: you are 'bout to die, but don't worry, your deaths this prove that this enigmatic race is worth of Wayland-Yutani's attention, after all, this is the future of the earth's military! Imagine that! When this carrier arrives on earth we will modify this brain to make it more intelligent. Well my friends, your business as intergalactic mail has ended, but don't worry…is for the greater good"
"THAT BASTARD! JOOOOHAAAN!"
Fool! I heard you, they run to a room with white doors, I try to whip them with my tail, and they are so far damn away! I should to impose some authority by yelling but of course they won't understand. They enter the strange illuminated room. I try to crawl the walls the fastest way possible, yes, a little closer…a little more…YES, HAVE I TRUMPED OVER THIS EXCUSES OF LIFE! I whip my tail to the one on the left, stunning him, but suddenly there is an explosion! I almost got my hands destroyed beyond repair, and it came from that strange two barreled weapon, I stagger back, they inches away from the white and lighted room.
"This is a shotgun motherfucker! Don't even dare to attack or I SHOT!"
The calm demeanor of the leader completely died…well sort of what I planned, but I didn't want him to go berserk with that damn weapon! I need to get that thing out of my way, I have a plan
"Come on Douglas we need to—"
I quickly grab the corpse's head and I throw it at him, he shoots it out of reflex, I sneak up behind him and I grab this useless body, but first I cut this hand holding the barrels with my tail, He cries in pain, but soon it will be worse, I grab this had and I pounce it all around the strange room, and then I notice that he stopped screaming, I throw the body out of the room. I see that this strange place has a shining button I press it and then a voice speaks that language I don't understand!
"NON HUMAN PALM IDENTIFIED, WELCOME XENOMORPH, PREPARE TO GO TO EARTH, AND DESTINATION WAYLAND-YUTANY" I notice that here the same liquid containers as my breeder room, also this window that…shows space, wait…I am not in a planet! I'm in some kind of building that can travel to planets…I need to res and drink something, I notice that this place is moving, there is nothing I can do more…if I go to an alien planet I will combat the dolts that dare to defy me, if I survive.
