The Victor Cruise
Chapter 10: A Killer Ending. (Warning: It's a little bloody)
Eric and Kat ran as fast as they could through the ship. Aliens were dropping down from the celings left and right. They turned the corner and were blocked off by a pack of the fury creatures.
"Dammit." Kat stammered, "There everywhere."
The ship shook violently, nearly knocking them off balance. Eric grabbed Kat dashed past the creatures as they were distracted by the shake. He lead her down the hall and up the stairs to the 4th floor. He looked around quickly, trying to remember which way they had came from. An alien dropped from down the hall and the two of them ran the opposite way.
"This way! Were close to the other ship!" Eric reassured her.
They turned and ran to the end of the hall. Eric opened the door and Kat ran through. He closed it and locked it before glancing at her. She bent down and picked up the suites.
"Let's go." She begged.
The two of them put on their air suite and entered the pool area of the cruise ship. They got to the other room and exited out of their suites before walking back into the familer cruise hall way. They could feel the cruise ship shake from the explosions of the other ship. They were running out of time, soon both ships were going to explode.
Kira carried her injured friend down the hall and to the Escape pods. Tori and Dustin ran over to give her a hand in bringing Conner over. They were happy to see the two of them were alive. Kendrix walked over to the console on the door.
"All right." Joel looked at them, "Let's get off this ship."
Kendrix opened the door and revealed a large room inside. Rows of seets were around the wall of the place. The ship could hold about 50 people. They all walked in and looked around. Joel and Kendrix opened another door and walked into the bridge. Kira sat Conner down, who was feeling totally out of it. His injuries were hurting him really badly, he felt like his whole body was on fire. Kendrix sat in the seat and looked over her controls for the ship. Suddenly rumbling began and she looked out the window at the explosions of the other ship. The victor ship began to shake violently, as the B1 of the ship began to explode. Tori was about to close the door of the escape pod when Eric and Kat dived in.
"Guys! You two made it!" Merrick exclaimed.
"Get this ship out now!" Kat and Eric chorus.
Kendrix nodded and hit a switch on the computer. Power turned on and the engines began to roar. She grabbed the steering wheel and the Escape Pod dropped from the victor ship and into space. The alien ship exploded in a huge ball of fire, causing the victor ship to explode also. Kendrix picked up speed as the escape pod began to rock from the force of the explosions. Dustin walked onto the bridge and sat in one of the chairs across of Kendrix. Joel walked back into the other room to see if everyone else was alright. The shake began to stop as the ship started towards Earth. Kira looked out of the window, watching all the shards of the ship fly by and down to earth.
"Arg." Conner winced in pain.
Everyone turned, he was holding his chest. Kira ran over to him and bent down, to see if he was all right.
"Conner. What's wrong? Breath." She was freaking out.
"Something..." Conner groaned, "Something is inside."
Kira blankly looked at him, unsure what to say. Joel and Tori exchanged looks at Merrick leaned against the wall.
"What? Something?" Kat repeated.
Conner screamed in agony, grabbing onto Kira's shirt. He pulled her down, holding onto her tightly. Joel and Eric ran over to try to break her free. Conner screamed and threw the three of them back before standing. They went flying onto the floor, groaning in pain. Dustin stood up from the chair and walked over to the door to see what was going on. Conner stumbled forward towards Kira, holding his chest. Suddenly Conner screamed as something ripped out of his chest. Blood sprayed everywhere as his the hole in his chest began to get wider. Conner was bleeding through the ears, eyes and mouth. Everyone took a step back, screaming as a hand came out of Conner's chest. A second hand came out and an alien pushed himself out of Conner's body. It was a miniature version of one of those aliens. Conner's body dropped to the floor and the alien screeched.
"Conner!' Kira screamed through her tears.
Everyone was so freaked out at what just happened. The small alien began to screech and grow. Its skin was breaking, replacing the dead skin with a whole new black one. The alien grew to the size of Horse before it stopped.
"How the hell." Joel began to back away.
Eric also took a stepback, "Is that a new alien trick or something?"
Merrick gasped, "This is bullshit."
Before they could figure out how to explain it, the Alien lunged forward at Kat and shoved its claws through her stomach. She screamed in pain as the Alien tore her apart.
"Kat!" Eric screamed.
Joel ran over to tried to save her but the Alien spun around and knocked him out of the way. It moved away from Kat and towards Joel, who was on the ground. Eric moved in and pulled out a knife from his shoe. He stabbed it into the alien's head to distract him from getting to Joel. The alien wrapped his tail around Eric's leg and threw him into a wall. It then turned back to Joel and pounced on him, ripping his body to shreds. Blood was spilling everywhere, body count was increasing. The alien was extra violent, it must been hungry or frighting, for it was only a baby. Eric crawled over to Merrick and Kira who helped him him up. Tori was inching closer to the bridge, hoping to get out of the room. Dustin gulped, taking a few steps back. Kendrix looked at him.
"What the hell is going on back there!? Im hearing screams!"
"There's an alien." Dustin informed her.
She gasped, "Shit, why didn't you tell me earlier." She had to keep her eyes on Earth, to make sure the ship was stable and working correctly. She couldn't leave to help them.
"I got to close the door." She said.
"What about the others." Dustin demanded.
He looked over to see the Alien coming right at him. He shifted his eyes and saw Tori moving from the wall to the door. Kendrix didn't notice her and hit a switch to close the door. Suddenly a scream and the Alien slammed right into Tori, smashing her body into the door. Dustin screamed, running to it.
"Kendrix! What the hell!?"
She turned, "Oh my god!"
She didn't realize that Tori was trying to get in, and when she cut off her exit the alien slammed into her. Dustin was breathing heavily, trying to break open the door.
"Dustin. We can't." She tried to calm him.
"But the others! Dammit! Tori!" He shouted.
Blood splattered on the door window, Dustin tried to look through it to see what was happening. Kira, Eric and Merrick were the last three survivors in there. Dustin looked around, trying to figure something. He had to do something, he had to help the others. He ran back over to Kendrix and looked at all the buttons.
"What are you doing?" Kendrix asked.
He found what he was looking for and hit it. It was the button to activate the speakers. He grabbed the mic nearby and shouted in it.
"Guys! Grab onto something!"
Kira and the others heard what Dustin said and jumped out of the way of the vicious alien. They grabbed onto the seatbelts of the chairs, as the alien crept towards them. They prayed that Dustin had some kind of plan. Dustin looked back down at the console.
"Which one opens the back door?"
"What? Are you crazy? You going to suck everyone out into space." Kendrix yelled.
He shook his head, "Just tell me!!"
She pointed at the red lever and he hit it. The door of in the back of the ship began to open. The room began to flash red from the alarm, air was being sucked out. The alien lost its grip and began to slide in the room towards the door. The rangers held onto the seat belts as the force tried to suck them out. The bodies of the other rangers all went flying out into the deep space.
"I can't hold much long..." Kira groaned.
The alien lifted off the ground and towards the door. It latched onto the side of the door and started to dangle into space. Dustin watched through the door.
"Come on you stupid Alien. Let go!!!"
The three rangers in the room hung on tightly, getting tired as the force was getting stronger.
"We can't go on like this." Eric shouted.
"Got any better ideas!?" Kira screamed back.
Merrick looked at them and closed his eyes. He could feel the strength leaving him, he knew if nothing would be done, all three of them would perish. He let go and went flying towards the door. He turned and kicked the alien right in the head, sending himself and the alien right out the door.
"Kendrix now!"
Kendrix hit the button and the door closed. Kira and Eric fell on the ground hard, letting go of the seat belt. Dustin opened the door of the bridge and ran out to them.
"Are you two all right?" He asked.
Kira bursted into tears, she got up and ran to the door where she saw all her friends fly out.
"There gone. All of them." She whispered.
Dustin walked over and put her hands on her shoulder. She turned around and dove into him and pulled him in for a hug. Dustin glanced at Eric who looked at all the blood stains. Kendrix's voice was overheard on the speaker.
"Where about to enter the atmosphere."
"How did this happen?" Kira asked.
Eric shook his head, "I have no idea. An alien must have laid an egg in him or something. I don't know, but we lost so many people cause of it."
The ship began to rock as the three of them went to the bridge to take a seat. Kendrix entered Earth and flew the ship to where the Victor Ship had once docked. It was still raining rubble and metal in the sky from the two ships. Kendrix landed on the ship in the water and the four remaining rangers. They got up, exhausted, tired, upset and relieved. They walked to the door and it opened it, the sun shined right on them. They squinted, adjusting their eyes. A bunch of cars and FBI's were stationed everywhere. Tommy was standing their amongst them. He walked over to them and greeted them.
"Dr. O." Kira whispered.
"Kira. I'm glad you made it. Are you four the only survivors?"
Eric nodded, "Sadly yes." He responded.
Kira, Dustin and Kendrix looked down at the ground. Eric walked over some officers and started to talk to him. Some Silver Guardian Soldiers had showed up in the area. Kira looked up at the sky, it was clear and sunny. She sighed, holding back her tears.
"I'm sorry about Conner." Tommy spoke up.
"I just want to go home." She responded.
Dustin nodded, "Ditto. "
Tommy forced a smile, "Then let's all go home. Come on guys, let's keep it together."
The three of them followed Tommy as they walked over to his jeep. Kira looked back and saw men in some kind of suites walk into the escape pods, cleaning up the area. She turned her head back and climbed into the car with the others. Tommy turned on the engine and drove off, leaving the scene. She was happy that she was finally back on earth, though she wished she was back with the others. So much had happened, it was truly a cruise ship from hell. Eric walked over to his black silver guardian car and climbed in. He nodded to the officers and pulled out and started to drive. He went down the street, and turned on the music. He rolled up his sleeve of his right arm and noticed a large gash. It was turning yellow and oozing. He sighed and continued his drive home....THE END
