AVP: Thrill Of The Hunt Version 2 (my version)

Part Two

This part with the scientists inside the containment room is my idea, the bit with Charles leading a party to find the escapee is from the comic.

Fredrick was in a squatting position inside the cage comfroting the disturbed female. Her name to all the scientist was Number Three, but to Fredrick, he had name her Elly. From his seven-year-old daughter who died in a tragic car accident years ago. Fredrick was also Elly's caretaker, he'd been taking care of her for so long he forgotten how many years it's been.

Elly had her big naturally muscluar arms wrapped around Fredrick's back and had the top of her forehead pressed against his chest as he gently stroked his hands down the back of her neck underneath her thick un-pleated locks. They weren't saying anything but the feeling For Elly of having someone to hold on to who was touching her back was enough comfort for her to calm down.

The door to the cage open while a janitor was cleaning up the blood and guts from the scientist and Speirs. Three scientists talked about what had just happened.

"Dammit." Rob, a geeky looking and short in height and short curly brown-haired scientist said. "How in the hell could it wake up from all the gas we put in that room? Reports and records show the other one can be knocked out with not even half a canister used. That thing should of been out."

Garold, a scientist who was six-foot with an expesive hair-cut and thin pale face turned to Number Three. "The reports though show her bio makeup is deteriorating. It's most likely her immune system is much more weaker."

Maverick, the third scientist, standing between the height of Garold and Rob who just looked like any normal guy, added his own two-sense about the situation. "What bothers me is: That guy, Charles, is going to kill it. We could use a specimen of that bio makeup for expirimenting. It's DNA is untouched in it's pure form, not gentically altered or tampered with."

The three scientists were apart of the top secret program containing Elly, but Elly and Fredrick were new arrivals here. Specimens of her kind were hard to come by, so she had been dropped off here by the company hoping the surroundings and a break from all the tests would physically help her heal where more testings could done later and her life expectancy would last longer.

"You think there's a way we could stop Charles? Or, maybe beat him to the specimen?" Garold said.

Hearing that made Maverick raise an eyebrow and Rob to look at Garold in surprise. "You know," Maverick said, "That isn't a bad idea."

Rob looked at the two, "But how would we do it? That thing was defensless insides the cage and drugged, and it killed two men while knocking out two."

Garold grinned and evil grin. "We have an advantage over Charles. Video data shows the specimen was interested in Number Three." he looked to Number Three and was followed by Rob and Maverick turning to her too.

Hearing Elly was being talked about, and hearing every word, Fredrick turned to the three and looked at them rather defensively.

"We can lure the specimen out using her. Since it's Bug country out there, we put some of that newly designed armor on her, shackle her, have Fredrick come with us to keep her calm and bring some taser, rifles and knock out darts. The specimen has a Locator on, so we can track it by that. Just make sure to steer clear of Charles." Maverick chuckled and Rob smiled.

"That's a brilliant plan, Garold." Maverick commented.

Having enough of hearing their delusional talk, Fredrick stood up yelling at them. "No way you guys. Ell . . ." he caught himself going to say the name he had given her, "Number Three is here to heal, not to be as some bait for your stupid plan. You'de be going against orders anyway, so you might as well forget about it."

Maverick chuckled slightly, "You're absolutely right Fredrick. We would be going against the company's orders. But I think they too would have a change of orders when finding out they could get their hands on a similiar specimen, in it's pure DNA form."

Fredrick narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth, the bastard was right. Even if he did fight against them, they would still take Elly out. And if they did retrieve the specimen then they would get a royal pat on the back from the company and probally get a higher spot up in the ladder. The company wouldn't even think twice that they went against their orders and put Elly in danger. At least, with him going out there he could be sure Elly would be safe. He turned his head away in a puff. "All right, you win. She'll be used as bait."

Sorry 'bout it being short.
