Author's Notes: Thank you for all of your reviews, everyone who reviewed this story. It's encouraged me to continue. This part will be part 1.5 of this mini-series, seeing as I couldn't fit the rest of the episode into the last chapter... (Couldn't stay on the computer long enough and I needed to publish it THEN or it would be deleted.) Anyway, this part will not be AS serious as the last one, but still won't be extremely light-hearted... anyway, I hope you enjoy the fic! Standard Disclaimer goes here... and by the way, the plot of Aliens has been changed a bit in this story, seeing as I can't remember everything that happens, and I don't want to totally plagarize anything.

Adventures in Fanfiction Space Part 1.5!: No Need For Aliens, Part Two!
*A few days after the last installment*
Luckilly, the pressure door at the end of a service tunnel the aliens were using to traverse between the colony and atmosphere processor had been sealed off and gun turrents had been put in front of it. They were safe for the moment, or so it seemed...
*Ops Room*
"Ok, people, that was a great idea. We're safe, for the moment at least. However, unless we can get the dropship from the Sulaco online and down here, we are in deep trouble. Now, I know it isn't the most fun job in the world, but it needs to be done. Who's going to go to the external antenna and patch in with a terminal? It's the only way we can get it down.
"Man, I'm not going, not with those critters runnin' around, man! You can count me out!" said Hudson.
"My sentiments exactly!" said Tenchi, who was as obviously frightened by the prospect as Hudson was.
"Well, I'd go, except for the fact that I would probably freeze if I encountered one of the things." said Joel, "Freeze, or shoot and get covered in acid."
"I'll go..." said Bishop.
"Yeah, that's right! Send the robot! Great idea, man!" said Hudson, enthusiastic about not having to go.
"Believe me, I'd rather not," said Bishop, "I may be synthetic, but I'm not stupid."
They then cut a hole in the service duct for Bishop to go in through. He was offered a pistol, but he declined, and then started to speak.
"Time will get short," said Bishop. "It'll take quite a bit of time to fly the Dropship down to the surface, then we'll have to prep it, and also prep Gorman for going on the dropship. That'll leave about 25 min. to get out of here before the processor blows."
"WHAT?!?!" screamed Tenchi, "WHY DIDN'T ANYONE SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE PROCESSOR BLOWING?!?!?!?!?"
"Sorry, but we forgot to tell you..." said Hicks, sheepishly.
"Well, anyway, good luck, man." said Joel, who then sealed the hole in the duct shut.
Suddenly, the alarm went off.
"CRAP! They're at the pressure door!" screamed Hicks.
Everyone ran to the Ops room and Hicks monitored the sentry guns' terminals.
"Man, we're runnin out fast..." said Joel, nervously.
"Yeah, but we're also gettin a lot of 'em. Look at em explode!" said Hudson, invigorated by the sight of the dying aliens.
"Uh oh, only 20 rounds left.... now 5... we're dry..." said Hicks.
A loud pounding could be heard throughout the Ops room.
"Well, they're trying to get in now..." said Joel. "I suggest we all arm ourselves with whatever we can, and get ready for a retreat."
"I'm all for that, man." said Hudson and Tenchi, at the same time.
They then sealed off the door to ops, and then prepared for the aliens to get there, but a strange anonamaly showed up on Hudson's tracker.
"Man, it's saying they're inside the room..." said Hudson, worriedly.
"That's impossible! Unless.... oh crap..." said Joel, who then stood on a table and lifted up a section of the ceiling and looked around with his flashlight, and could see hundreds of aliens crowding around him crawling on the inside of the ceiling...
"AHHH!!!!" screamed Joel, as he fell and started shooting at the ceiling, causing shrapnel and acid going everywhere, hitting Joel in the left arm.
"ARGH!!" screamed Joel, as the acid got him.
"WE NEED TO MOVE! NOW!" screamed Hicks, and directed that all the people should follow him over to the medbay doors. Unfortunately, they had been welded together earlier.
"DAMMIT!" screamed Hicks.
"There's a airshaft here!" said Joel, and did the best he could at getting the grating off. Joel finally just said, "GET BACK!" and shot the grate off, deactivating the explosive bullets.
"MARINES! WE ARE LEAVING!" screamed Hudson, as they started to get into the airshaft, Hudson leading the way since he had studied the blueprints of the place. Unfortunately, the aliens were not far behind them, and the only thing keeping them from gaining was Joel's shooting them one by one, but this only slowed them down. In addition, Joel was on top of an airgrate going down when an alien grabbed him from below. and Joel started screaming
Joel started screaming "NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!"
Tenchi tried to grab him, but it was too late. Joel then was knocked unconscious, and woke up inside the hive... suddenly, a voice started chattering over the radio, "Hey, man. Finally got it fixed. Do you want to be teleported now or later?"
"NOW WOULD BE AN OPPORTUNE TIME!!!!" screamed Joel, as he was about to be infested. Luckily, the teleporter worked this time, and Joel got back to headquarters, and for some reason Tenchi was brought with him.
"Man, you need a bath or something..." said the teleporter operator, seeing the resin all over Joel.
"I just need to rest now... and put Tenchi back to his dimension. Be sure to nullify the memories of his travels outside his dimension!
