Lex point of view:
It was eerie how dark this place was. Out of all the caves and explorations I was had ever been in this was by far the creepiest. 'That's because here I feel like an animal being hunted, not just someone going up against Mother Nature.' I thought, as I kept my eyes open. Maxwell is ahead on point with his MP-5 machine gun and I checked my digital compass.
"If we can stay on this bearing, we should keep going up. If we can do that, we'll make it back to the entrance." I state as Maxwell nodded his head. I watch as Weyland is starting to slow down and eventually ends up falling behind. At one point he stops and leans against the wall trying to catch his breathe, dropping the weapon that had caused this whole mess.
As he bends down to reach it I step in "Leave it. It can only slow us down."
"Too much has been lost to leave here with nothing." By his face expression I could tell that the situation was finally hitting him. I knew by his face that he would argue and we had no time for that and…in a way he was right. 'People have died on this suicide run…we can't go back empty handed Evi would be pissed.' I thought, as I turned around and instructed Weyland to give me the gun.
That's when we heard Maxwell's gun go off. I didn't see everything that happened, but Maxwell was on the floor trapped in a net of some type. Maxwell was pushing against the netting grunting as he struggled to get free, trying to use his gun to push against the net. We ran to his side, as the net started to constrict around Maxwell. I look around trying to figure out what could have trapped Maxwell as Weyland struggles with the net only to lacerate his thick gloves. Sebastian tried to cut at the net with his knife, but the blade snaps. 'What the hell type of net is this' I thought, trying to remain calm and think as Maxwell's harsh breathe turns into a gritted teeth scream, the net pulling tighter and tighter around him.
"Look out" Maxwell shouts as he still struggles with the net. I turn around to see something coming at us, something I had never seen before. It was big, fast, and coming straight at us. I grabbed my ice axe form my waist and raised my arm ready to strike. Only to get thrown to the ground like I was nothing. It wasn't long until I heard another thump and knew that Weyland was thrown as well. I struggled to get up the throw causing me to loose all the air in my lungs.
I could see that this monster, hunter or whatever he was, had Sebastian by the throat lifting him up as if he was plaything. I watched as this hunter grabbed something out of his side. It grew to a spear. The hunter raised it above Maxwell's head, ready to finish him off. 'No' I thought reaching for my ice axe that had fallen a few inches away, only to hear loud footsteps coming at me when I turned to look I saw an outline of something coming at me it kicked me like a soccer ball into a wall. I lifted my head to see the monster had speared Maxwell with so much force that the stone behind him cracked. 'Maxwell…Sebastian…Weyland' I thought, looking at Weyland on the floor shocked at what happened to Maxwell and Sebastian still hanging in the air by a killer.
I struggle to get up, but couldn't so I move up against the wall. I can see the outline of whatever had kicked me and knew that we were all about to die even before I heard the unsheathing of metal. The outline got closer. All I could do was sit there and wait for this thing to strike. 'Evi' I thought, as the outline moved to end me.
I tensed waiting for my death, but it never came. Instead I saw something black and spiked covered in something green sticking in midair. It wasn't long until the hunter fully appeared and the hunter was being raised into the air by the thing in his chest.
As I followed the hunter's body I found something else hiding in the shadows. It creeps out slowly hissing. It was sleek, black, and armed. It looked like the serpent we had seen on the walls fighting the hunter. The serpent brings the hunter close to its face giving into a long low hissing sound; drool dripping from its lips. Suddenly its hiss becomes a screech and it impales the hunter in the face with what looked like another mouth.
I can feel something drip down my cheek and there were green splotches on my pants. 'Blood' I thought for a moment, raising a finger to my cheek. 'Green blood…just what are these things.' I thought cringing all over trying to wipe the blood away.
It wasn't long until I heard a thump that I focused on my surroundings again. I watched as the other hunter threw Sebastian on the ground and the alien serpent threw the other hunter on the ground. I watch frozen as the hunter let out a roar and the serpent a loud hiss before charging at each other.
The serpent jumped and the hunter charged. Their power was incredible their impact destructive. I watch as the serpent like alien had the hunter pinned its claws scratching at its head as its tail swished back and forth violently, only to have the hunter roll on top of it.
I crawl over to Sebastian picking him up as the two things were distracted. "Come on we have to get Weyland."
Sebastian nodded still watching the fight as we got Weyland who had a closer view of the two things fighting.
"Come on we have to go," I whisper, rushing out of the room, before we get killed. 'Just what in the hell are those thing…what the hell is going on in this damn pyramid?' I thought, dragging what was left of my team to safety. If there was such a thing anymore in this place.I could hear the roars and hisses of the fight and pushed to move faster. 'We have to get out of here.'
