"We're leaving Proteus's atmosphere," Lamia said. "Excellent," I answered.

We flew off into space. I felt myself leave Proteus's atmosphere. Leaving my home. I looked around at everyone else. They were already asleep. I turned around and stared at Rim, which looked like a tiny speck so far.

I looked back at my planet. We were getting father away from it each second. And it appeared to be getting smaller each second too.

I stared at my sleeping companions again. I felt like sleeping myself. I yawned. I felt like I was getting hypnotized into falling asleep. I couldn't resist it. I knew that in moments, I would be asleep.

I was just drifting off when I felt something hit the ship. I jumped out of my seat. Everyone else did too.

"What the hell?" Lamia screeched. I looked out the window. I saw dozens of meteoroids. And they were headed for us.

"It's a meteor shower!" Carlin yelled. Immediately, I jumped into the control seat. I grabbed the wheel and turned it. The ship swerved sideways, just avoiding a big meteor. However, a rather small meteor hit the ship. The ship was sent flying away. We all tumbled around inside the ship.

I crashed to the ground. I tried to get up, but I couldn't. The force of the blow had twisted my ankle.

I looked up, and then gasped. A gigantic meteor, the largest I had ever seen, was soaring right towards us. I again tried to get up, but couldn't. I tried to crawl to the control seat, but when I got there, it would be too late.

At Rim, Ripoll was on the computer, watching the entire scene. "Acacias," He said. "The hybrid's ship is in a meteor shower."

"I guess that means that he will be killed before he even arrives here," Acacias cackled. Ripoll grinned.

In the meteor shower, I watched as the meteor got closer. I could see it now, my dead body floating through space. I shuddered. However, Carlin suddenly jumped into the control seat. He grabbed the wheel and steered the ship out of the meteor shower. My mouth gaped in awe. Carlin had saved us.

As soon as the meteor shower passed, I said, "Carlin, you saved us."

Lamia just snorted. "Beginners luck," She snarled. "It was just a stroke of luck."

I turned to her, mouth wide open in awe. "Lamia, how can you say that? He just saved our lives, while you didn't even move."

"It was a onetime thing," Lamia said, looking at her claws. I sighed.

At Rim, Acacias asked, "Well, did the hybrid die?"

"He s-s-survived," Ripoll stammered. "What?" Acacias yelled. Ripoll took a few steps back.

"I shall kill the hybrid creature myself when he lands on Rim!" Acacias growled. Garget came in.

"Garget, prepare the bombs," Acacias snarled.

"That's how you plan to kill them?" Garget scoffed. "I think that's way too-!"

He was cut off by Acacias grabbing him by the throat. "You will do as I say!" He yelled.

"Y-y-y-yes sir," Garget stammered. He ran away. A few moments later, he returned, his arms loaded with grenades.

"Now put them outside," Acacias ordered. Garget obeyed and walked out of their base.

In space, unbeknownst to the Xenomorphs or the Yautja, three large ships were flying towards Rim.

W-Y Corp was spray-painted on the side of each of the ships. That was the initials for the Weyland-Yutani Corporation. They Weyland-Yutani Corp were a company that captured aliens of all kinds and used them as biology-weapons.

The captain of the ship, named Kerch Branson, but mainly known as Captain Branson, stood inside the biggest ship, his hands behind his back. He had grey hair and a grey mustache, showing his age. He had blue eyes and he was pale. He had a general's outfit and was treated with respect.

A soldier walked up to him. "Sir, we are nearing Rim," He said. "Excellent," Captain Branson answered. His voice was deep and angry, as it always was.

"We will land on Rim and catch the beasts that live there," The cold captain said. "Yes sir," The soldier replied before he walked away.

Meanwhile, our ship was just about to land on Rim. Aristae had bandaged up my ankle. "Steady," I was saying as we landed.

The ship gently landed on the planet. Unknown to us, this was where all the bombs were, hidden underneath the ground.

"They've landed, sir," Garget said. "Excellent," Acacias said. "Activate the bombs."
