She ran down the dark tunnel as fast as she could, heart pounding in her ears and her lungs on fire.

Nothing mattered but getting to the central chamber, just a few yards further away. She knew she'd be safe there.

Why did high school have to be so challenging? Her body changing was bad enough, but the boys chasing her was worse.

Only a few months into a new year and she'd had enough of those guys. She already talked to mama about it and tried to stand up against them, but to no avail.

Teachers didn't help. They were too busy chatting it up amongst themselves and too stuck in their fecking phones to care. No wonder her grades were also suffering, even though she was trying her hardest.

Now she decided to get the only one she thought could get through these people's heads involved. The only one who rivaled her mama when she was infuriated at her children being threatened.

"M... M... Ma..." she tried panting.

"MAMA!" she screamed at the top of her lungs as she turned the corner.

She ran straight into her aunt's arms and tried to cry out the situation.

"They... They're after... me... Help!" she sobbed as her whole body shook from exaustion.

Her mom and aunt immediately got ready to attack whoever came into the room. Nobody threatened their family member and would get away with it.

"Get behind me sweet heart. They're not getting through us." Newt's adoptive aunt, the Xenomorph Queen, said telepathically.

The three boys rounded the corner, only to face two very angry women hell bent on protecting their youngster.

Running away wasn't an option as three drones suddenly picked them up by the shoulders and carried them to speak to the ladies.

They paled as they could feel the anger coming off Ripley and the royal fury that was the Queen.

"WHAT are you boys doing chasing my daughter!?" Ripley hollered in their faces.

"W... We..." one stuttered.

"N... Noth..." another tried.

"We... We weren't going to hurt her..." the final one managed to squeak out as his voice really cracked.

"I know what your ultimate intentions are. I can see it in your eyes and smell it coming off your lower body." the Queen said with a loud hiss as she stood tall and looked down on them.

"Wh... What?!" one of the boys managed to say in as normal tone voice as he could.

"You want to have sex with her. I'm no fool. I have kids of my own." she said telepathically. "This is absolutely unacceptable!"

The boys bodies went limp as they went into shock hearing a voice in their heads, disclosing what they though was secret at the moment.

"If you don't respect my daughter and leave her alone, I will personally hunt all three of you down and make those organs never function again. I will never tolerate boys who let their testosterone rule their minds! Do. You. Understand?!" Ripley said as she got an inch away from their faces.

"Yes mam!" all three of them managed to say with extremely shaky voices.

"I don't ever want to see any of you in my home ever again, for ANY reason. You won't make it out of here alive next time." the Queen threatened with a snarl on her face.

The boys couldn't say anything as they were released and scrambled out of there, tripping over each other trying to get away from their terrible decision.

The Queen and Ripley held her tight as she cried her emotions out. All her fear and anxiety about what could have happened. All the relief that it was finally over.
