Chapter 2
(3rd pov)
"Dante? Can you hear me?" Asked a man through the intercom.
Dante, a former human now a hybrid xenomorph, ignores the voice and sat next to a xenomorph as he rested his head on the xenomorph's shoulder.
"I know you don't want to talk but-"
The man was cut off when Dante growled angrily for a brief second...so the man decided to end the conversation knowing he has no interest for conversation.
"He refuses to talk...I don't think we can have him cooperate." The man says as he looked at his co-worker.
"He'll cooperate. They all will. What about the girl? Rachael was it?"
"You'd call me crazy that the praetorian is falling for her."
"Really...show me."
The man switches camera footage to Rachael's cell and shows the praetorian holding Rachael close snuggling his head on her neck as Rachael seems...asleep.
"Interesting...keep an eye them in case the praetorian does anything rash that might harm the girl." The co-worker said.
"Sure thing."
(Rachael's pov)
Shadow scares me...I would always picture him like Negan from the walking dead who has similar personalities when it comes to women and boy is he serious when he said he hates rape. Anyway, I was sleeping on him when I suddenly felt his wet hand touching muscled stomach. Yeah that's something I forgot to mention. My transformation gave me muscles on my body and increased my height a bit...almost as tall as Shadow.
"Beautiful..." He purrs.
I decided not to say a word about it for a while until it was starting to get uncomfortable. His hand starts go lower to my legs making me wake up immediately as I look at Shadow with a look of shock.
"What are you doing?!"
He chuckles at my reaction and looks at me with a smirk.
"Is it wrong to feel you?"
"Not when I'm sleeping. Please. Let me sleep peacefully."
He didn't listen to me. He just kept on touching me and when enough is enough, I jabbed him hard on the face. Unfortunately for me...he didn't like it. He pins me down to the ground and growls at me.
"You...dare...strike at me?" He growled.
"I'm sorry! It's that I don't know you too well to be touched too much!" I panicked.
He slaps me in the face knowing that he didn't give a fuck. Now normally I would hit back but this is a fucking praetorian that struck me. You never hit a praetorian xenomorph unless you have a death wish.
"That does not give you the right to strike at me!" He roared at me.
I got scared real fast as he pins me to the wall and looks at me with pure rage. I thought he was going to kill me but to my surprise...he didn't.
"I'm going to give you a warning. You strike at me like that again...and I will give you the most unimaginable pain to put you in your place. Got it?!"
I quickly nod in fear.
"Good." He growls as he dropped me on the ground.
I crawled away from him and sat to the corner of the wall as he sits down not far from me and is glaring daggers at me.
About a half an hour, I hear him say..
"I'm sorry. It's your scent...It drives me crazy sometimes...I've never experienced this kind of feeling before..." He sighs.
"Can you at least control yourself? It scares me when you do that kind stuff to me..."
I think that encouraged him to close in on me cause once he got close to me, his hand slowly reaches to my face making me flinch a bit.
"I make no promises but...I shall try."
I was going to say something when I heard agonizing screams. I see a soldier through the glass backing away as he suddenly was stabbed multiple times to the chest by the tailblade, thrown to the grown as I hear a nasty snap on the soldier's neck and I see Dante walk towards the dead soldier and impaled the soldier's head with his inner mouth. He sees the control panel by the door of the cell that I was in as he rips the soldier's arm off, uses the hand of the severed arm to unlock the door and by the time the door opens, he rushes to the corridor somewhere...but you know what me and Shadow heard from Dante? I heard him say this through the hive mind...
"I must save the queen." Dante growls.
"Did he say what I think he said?" I asked Shadow.
"Seems your friend had a conversation with the queen. But how...? She would tell me these things ahead of time when she has a plan." Shadow says as he walked out of the chamber with me.
"Is it possible she could've blocked any ways of communication so she could talk to him?" I asked as I looked around a bit.
"It's possible...somehow she planned this out alone." Shadow said as we walked down the corridor.
The further we walked to the corridor, the more dead bodies we came across. This was Dante's doing...he didn't let any of the scientists or guards to alert the company and he did a real good job in killing them quick.
"Whoa...He did this?" I asked rather on edge.
"Seems that way...the hive mind seems to have taken affect to him but he'll regain control of himself. Once this is over that is." Shadow said as he walked towards the exit.
We felt tremors on the ground coming from the outside of the base along with a huge roar that reminds of Godzilla's roar.
"The queen escaped!" Shadow shouted with surprise.
We rush out of the base and we see the queen destroying defense turrets like they were nothing as I see Dante holding Mizuki close to him so that she wouldn't get in harms way.
"He really did help her escape..." I said in shock.
The queen breaks the steel gates wide open as she walks somewhere in the jungle of South America.
"Come. We must follow her for safety." Shadow said.
"O-okay..." I said rather unsure.
"Do not be afraid of her. She is never ruthless unless some human tried to harm our hive." Shadow said with a reassuring tone.
"Rachael...She's calling us...our new home..." I hear Dante say softly.
Dante and Mizuki walk to follow the queen as me and Shadow followed Dante along with a couple of xenomorphs.
"What's wrong, Rachael? You seem shocked..." Shadow asks me.
"It's my friend...he said he heard the queen talking to him...said the queen was...calling us."
"She is." Was Shadow's only answer.
A new home...hm...well I can't go back to human society like this so I suppose staying with the xenomorphs is the only home I have...
(A/N: Sorry for the hiatus. Family business. Anyway...HOLY SHIT! THAT'S ALOT OF FOLLOWERS AND PEOPLE WHO ADD THIS STORY AS A FAVORITE. THANKS GUYS!)
