Sosion followed the creatures track way (wasn't very hard, its foot prints were nearly 3 feet wide) down a Game Trail. Suddenly she was hit with sour smell. She waved her hand in front of her face, trying to fan the smell away.
'Where is that coming from?' She thought. She continued on, and soon found the source of the smell.
Lying on the ground in the middle of the trail was what was left of a Xenomorph Praetorian.
Its Head crest had a huge chunk missing from it, the tail was cut in half, and its torso looked like it was crushed. Sosion got closer. There was something weird about it.
'This isn't what a dead Xeno smells like.' She thought. Then she saw the animal's big footprints, along with smaller ones.
'I knew it' she thought 'that's why it didn't eat the raptor right then and there. It wanted to feed its young. And the dead Praetorian is a warning not to come near.' She was getting nervous. There were too many questions going through her mind. What was this creature? Why did it look so familiar? Why didn't the Praetorians Acid Blood seem to have any effect on the creature's mouth? Why did this body smell so bad?
She heard rustling in the brush, and leapt up into a near tree. A teenage boy stepped into sight. He had black hair, pale skin, and cold life-less looking eyes. Hanging from his pants belt were two sheathed machetes. He yawned and stretched, probably just woke up from a nap. Then he looked down at the carcass.
"Ah, jeez. Did he have to leave this thing right here?" He said to himself. "Right in the middle of the trail, It's gonna scare all the good meat away." He grabbed the tail and started to drag the Xeno onto the side of the trail.
'Strong kid.' Sosion thought. She noticed he didn't seem effected by the smell.
"There." He said before turning and walking away. Something moved in the brush. He turned to see a Xenomorph Warrior standing on its hind legs near the carcass. It hissed at him. The boy drew one of his machetes. The Xeno leapt forward, mouth agape and claws at the ready. He quickly dodged the attack and swung the blade at the Xeno, slicing off two of the tubes on its back. The animal screeched in pain. It turned around and hissed at its foe. The boy lifted the blade, not affected at all by the Xenos blood.
"Want some more, Ugly?" He taunted. The Xeno charged again. As before the boy dodged, expecting this, the Xeno through its tail blade at him, but the boy grabbed it and chopped it right off. He then pushed the Xeno onto the tree Sosion was hiding in and held it there. The Warrior opened its mouth and its inner jaw shot out, but the boy grabbed it and yanked it out. It let out an angry scream. The boy raised his blade a plunged it into its screaming mouth. When the scream stopped, the let go of the body and it fell to the ground.
"15. No way Dad's gonna beat me thi-" He was cut off by a loud screech, he turned to see another Xeno leaping toward him. He had no time to react. Suddenly, the Xeno was blasted away by a bright light. The body flew into the brush. The boy looked to his side. A man was standing there, he had Brown hair, a smirk on his face, and his right arm wasn't an arm, it was metallic gray and in the shape of Predators Plasma Caster.
"20. I'm winning." He said. The gun transformed into a hand, and the color changed to match the rest of his body.
"Lucky shot pops."The boy said.
"Lucky for you. You woulda got torn to shreds. Now come on your Mothers waiting."
'These guys know something about that creature. And I'm gonna find what it is.' Sosion thought.
The two walked down the trail, and Sosion followed through the trees.
