The Creeper's dry and scaly hands made Rebecca's skin crawl as it brushed against hers. Her feet left the ground kicking and, in her panic, her grip on Ronny loosened. The small boy screamed as he lost his grip on Rebecca's shirt and plummeted to the ground. Luckily, the Creeper hadn't gotten too high off the ground yet, so Ronny wasn't badly hurt when he fell. Rebecca kicked and beat at the Creeper's hands, but the Creeper's vice-like grip wouldn't relinquish.

"Let me go!" Rebecca begged.

But the Creeper's grip only tightened more, his arms crushing into her stomach and making her gasp in pain. Suddenly, the Creepalien appeared out of nowhere and crashed into the Creeper, causing him to drop Rebecca. Rebecca screamed as she fell, but her fall was cut off swiftly as something grabbed her ankle. Her head whipped to the side as she was pulled off in a different direction. She managed to catch a glimpse of black wings and a long tail before the Creeper attacked and she was dropped for the second time. She landed hard on her back and she heard something cracking. She gasped as the air rushed out of her body and tried to roll over, but her side flared up in pain. She moaned and lay flat, looking up at the giant flying beasts attacking one another.

"Rebecca?" Ronny asked.

She looked over to see him crawling over to him.

"Are you hurt?" he asked.

Rebecca took a deep breath and pushed herself up, ignoring the pain. "No," she lied, "Are you?"

Ronny shook his head. Rebecca got to her feet and reached down. She grimaced as Ronny pushed up against her side. She knew then that she had to have either broken or cracked at least one of her ribs.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Ronny asked.

Rebecca nodded and started backing away slowly. She didn't know where David was, but she hoped he was distracted so she could get away.

"Where do you think you're going?"

Rebecca jumped in shock and cried out in pain. She dropped Ronny and clutched her side as the pain intensified.

"Looks like you broke a rib or two," David said with amusement.

"Please, what do you want from us?" Rebecca asked.

"One of you will be giving birth soon," David said, "And I don't want to run the risk of losing it just yet."

"Then let Ronny go! Please, just let him go!"

David grinned. "What makes you so sure it's you?"

Rebecca looked down slowly at Ronny. He remained silent, but he looked up at Rebecca with a look of pain.

"Ronny? Are you okay?"

"My chest hurts really bad," Ronny moaned.

Rebecca looked up to see David smirking. "Why? Why him? He's just a little kid! Why not me?"

"Because, Mom was under the impression that you could be used as bait for the Creeper, she didn't want you dying too quickly. She was also pretty mad at you for getting away with the little snot the first time. She thought that having him die on you would be suitable punishment."

There was a loud screech from the sky and Rebecca and David both looked up at the same time just in time to see the Creeper and Creepalien crash into the ground, creating a giant dust cloud. Rebecca took the moment to scoop Ronny back up in her arms, running as fast as she could despite her broken rib.

"Suit yourself," David shouted after them, "But I thought you would have preferred to die at our hands, not be devoured in his hands."

Rebecca ignored him and continued running, wanting to get as far away from the chaos as possible.

"Rebecca! Stop, it hurts!" Ronny cried.

Rebecca immediately came to a halt and set Ronny down on the ground. He screamed the moment his feet hit the ground and his hands flew to his chest, grasping and clawing at his shirt. Clutching her own side in pain, Rebecca pulled Ronny's shirt over his head to get a better look on his chest. She had to keep in a gasp as she watched the small lump rise in Ronny's chest, causing him to scream in pain. She had a flash back to the Creepalien bursting out of the Creeper's chest and hot tears started to flow down her cheeks.

"Come here," She said, pulling Ronny into his arms and holding him tight.

"It hurts so bad!" Ronny cried, "Make it stop."

"It will stop, in a few seconds," Rebecca said, "You won't feel anything after that."

"Why are you still here?" Ronny asked.

"What?"

"You could get away."

Rebecca grimaced. "No I can't; I got hurt pretty badly and I don't know if I'll make it very far."

Ronny was about to respond when his eyes scrunched up in pain and a loud crack split the air. Rebecca held him tighter as another crack erupted. Ronny screamed and Rebecca did too as pain unlike anything she had ever felt roared in her chest as well. The world swam around her as a small, high pitched screech rose into the air. She glanced down slowly and saw a blood slick body of the small alien, coming out of Ronny's chest and disappearing into her own. She felt blood trickling down her chin and she looked at Ronny. His eyes were empty and glassy and his mouth hung slack. He was dead.

"Ronny," Rebecca chocked out, blood bubbled out of her mouth, gagging her as she slipped closer to death.

She gave a final gasp before slumping forward over Ronny. The last thing she heard was the baby alien, screeching loudly.
