Battles heated up, and lives were lost in the next few days. The Predators used their stealth to hunt in the dark taking out both Xenomorphs and humans. The Xenomorphs also used the darkness to find host for their growing forces. The humans, that were starting to lose this war, were just hammered at all times it seemed. Exhaustion was taking its toll on them and they were running out of troops.

On patrol in Queens, a squadron of soldiers were ambushed by about 10 Drones. They fought hard from inside of their Humvees, which would become their tomb. Screaming could be heard over their radios as the Runners bit their heads off, leaving the corpses behind since there was no reason to take them. On the other side of the spectrum, the Predators began to kill what they could.

One night, a supply column on route to an entrenched group of soldiers in the Manhattan area was ambushed. Predators swarmed in untouched, slaying what they could and making off with their: weapons, ammo, and other things that seemed to be of technological importance to the humans. They studied it and even modified it with some of their technology.

Now the guns could hold twice as many rounds and still fire effectively, they also could do a lot more damage to their target. But, without these back in the hands of the humans it didn't really matter since they were doomed to lose this. No way could the humans fight both species.

Soldiers were losing morale as hundreds more died during the week, due to ambushes and fighting. Xenomorphs were also being destroyed as they continued to lose, and lose Drones and Runners. The Queen was growing impatient as to why they were losing so many. She began screeching and howling away at night sometimes. The Xenomorph infestation began to spread from the Empire State Building to about 3 blocks around it.

Predators ambushed another supply column, but this time they weren't alone. Some Runners had picked them out, and decided to give it a shot. The Predator's cloakers began to fail since it started to rain. Humans began to shoot at anything that moved Predator or Xenomorph. One shot got lucky and knocked off one of their helmets, and that soldier's jaw just dropped.

"You're one ugly mother-," he started, not getting to finish as he was stabbed in the back. The Predators roared as the soldiers formed a circle to try and better defend themselves. One by one they fell, either by the Predators or the Runners. A Runner jumped directly on the back of one of the Predators and easily put it in a comatose.

The others continued to fight hard and long, but soon help arrived for the Runners as more joined in. The Predators all fell into a comatose, not without taking out at least one fourth of their attackers though. The Runners carried them off to the central hive, and the Queen was pleased.

Facehuggers then implanted their Chestbursters inside of them. And after about an hour or two, they popped out spilling the greenish blood on the ground. Showing off their Predator maws, they went into their cocoons and began their transformation into a new breed of Xenomorphs. This breed would be known as the Pred-Alien, and this would be the deadliest of all.
