Chapter 7

Jason vs Alien

Jason rose to his feet clutching his machete in his hand as he proceeded to the door to his next challenge. As he pushed the door open a shroud of darkness took hold of Jason enveloping him in its abyss. Jason looked around searching for whatever monster he would have to combat but he could not see anything. Then in the far distance a small glimmer of green light caught Jason's eye and he moved towards it.

But as Jason moved closer to the light it seemed to be moving further away. All of a sudden the floor Jason was walking on gave away, causing him to tumble down crashing in a heap on a cold metal floor. It didn't take long for Jason to get back on his feet with his Machete raised. Jason took a moment to take in his surroundings. He was in a small narrow hallway where the only source of light coming from the dim lamps hanging from the roof. The floors and walls where all metal and there seemed to be a sliding door to his right. Jason could not see what it was he was meant to be doing so he started along the hall trying to see anything in the dim light. However as Jason moved along the metal flooring his footsteps made quite a noise due to his massive frame, and it was because of this noise that he failed to hear the scuttling sounds above him coming from the venting system.

Eventually Jason came to another door which did not open, however this was not a problem for Jason as he proceeded to hack down the door with his Machete and within moments he was in the room. This new room looked similar to the hallway Jason had just come from, the floors and walls were metal and the only light came from the dim lamps, however there were also a number of new things to this room. There were a number of desks in the room covered with computers, books, notes, and tape players. There was a screen on the far end of the wall that was emitting nothing but static, and there was a vent on the roof in the centre of the room. As Jason made his way further into the room he heard a faint hissing sound which made him stop in the centre of the room just under the vent. As Jason looked around searching for what made the noise he soon felt a long trail of cold drool dripping down his left shoulder.

He looked down at the drool and then up into the ventilation only to see nothing. The next thing Jason felt was a pain in his chest as he looked down and saw that a blade had pierced the dead centre of his chest. As he turned to look at his attacker he saw the blade was in fact a tail and the tail was connected to a creature Jason had never seen in his life. The monster had a tall slick black body, no eyes, a long oddly shaped skull and a row of silvery glistening sharp teeth. The tail had to be over a foot long and it also had razor sharp claws. The monster whipped its tail causing Jason to fly into the metallic wall crashing and leaving a huge dent behind him. Before Jason knew what was happening next the Alien was already on Jason digging its tail back into his chest causing blood to flow down his chest. However the creature was now close enough for Jason to strike back. He grabbed his machete and sliced the tail of the alien clean off. However unlike the previous monsters Jason had killed this creature was different. Its blood was a light green and it appeared as if it was melting the blade of Jason's Machete. Not to let this deter him Jason drove the remaining blade of his Machete into the creature's chest. It let out a high pitched scream as more of the light green blood poured out of its chest and down Jason's Machete. Jason pulled his arm back and went to stab at the monster again when he noticed that the blade had been completely melted away. Now enraged the Alien slashed at Jason with its claws leaving massive gashes over Jason's body and causing even more blood to ooze over his body. Jason grabbed the creature by the neck and launched it into the roof before slamming it down onto the ground before he threw it into one of the screens on the wall causing it to shatter and sparks to fly everywhere. The lights also began to flicker as the Alien fell to the ground with a clunk. Jason seeing the Alien still moving grabbed one of the computer monitors and went to smash it over the Alien, but the Alien was to quick and jabbed its bleeding stump of a tail into Jason's leg causing him to drop the monitor. It then jumped on his back digging its claws into his back and tearing away his clothing, skin and muscle.

Jason staggered around trying to get the creature off his back but to no avail, it only dug its claws deeper into his back holding on and striking him. It then began to use its teeth to tear into Jason but as it did Jason managed to grabbed what looked to be a wrench that was lying on one of the desks and smashed it full on it the face with it knocking it off his back. He then started beating down the Alien with the wrench but it didn't seem to be doing allot of damage as the Alien was quick to recover and launched itself at Jason arms extended. It hit Jason full on digging its clawed hands into his eye holes in his mask causing more blood to torrent out. Jason now blinded felt around for something to use as the alien continued to slash at him. Then his hand found contact with something sharp and without hesitation Jason seized the object and jabbed it into the Aliens side. This seemed to do the trick as the Alien fell off and Jason could see again albeit with blood pooling in his mask. He looked down and saw that he had grabbed the sliced off end of the Aliens tail. Not wasting a moment he grabbed hold of the Alien once more and slammed it into one of the desk destroying it in the process. He then jabbed the tail into its chest as more of the acidic blood poured out again. While he did this he held it down with his free hand by the throat. It screeched and writhed and thrashed about trying to get loose but Jason had a grip of iron on the creature. He continued to stab at the creatures chest before dealing the final blow as he drove the tail into its throat before pulling it out and jamming it up through the bottom of its mouth through its head. As the Alien let out another ear splitting shriek it writhed and then stopped, its body no longer moving as its arms fell to its side limp. Jason got to his feet and noticed that in the heat of things the acidic blood of the Alien had burnt allot of his body. He also noticed an egg sitting on a desk he had not noticed before. So Jason made his way towards the egg and when he was within 3 feet away from it, it started to unfurl. Jason peered over it to look inside and the next thing he knew he was being swallowed up by a torrent of darkness once more.

But this time did not take as long as before and within moments he was back in Hell. He also noticed that his machete that had been melted by the creature's blood had been repaired and was sticking out of one of the rocks near him. Jason seized the handle of the Machete and pulled releasing it from its rocky prison. He then slumped down with his back against the rock and waited for his injuries to heal. As Jason sat there and let whatever it was heal him he wondered how many more of these challenges he would have to go through before he would be reunited with his mother once more.
