Chapter 14 - Life Mate?
Sumiko took off as fast as her legs would carry her, she risked a quick glance back over her shoulder to see if the giant creature was after her. She quickly noticed that it had chosen Ryann as its first victim. A sense of relief swept over her, "Yes! Thank God it's not after me." Then panic hit her like a ton of bricks, "Ryann!"
Sumiko took off running after Ryann, her video camera was still on, "This is gunna be like the Blair Witch Project." She started to whine.
Ryann was sprinting, she could feel the ground shake beneath her feet every time she took a step. She knew the creature was after her, she didn't dare look back at it. She began to look for anywhere to hide, anything to crawl under.
There were broken down buildings that Ryann would squeeze between, hoping that the giant alien wouldn't be able to fit through. But each time the alien would just crash through the buildings and continue it pursuit.
A huge piece of concrete was sticking out of the ground just enough for Ryann to crawl under. She dove and got under it as quickly as possible, hoping that the creature wouldn't be able to get to her.
A sharp clawed hand took a swipe at Ryann's face, just barely missing her nose. "Ahh!" She was screaming at the top of her lungs as she scooted back as far as she could. The aliens claws couldn't reach her, but she was caught off guard when the creatures spear tipped tail stabbed into her left shoulder, going straight through the skin and bone. "Oww!" Ryann started crying as the alien began dragging her out of her hiding place.
Ryann tried to pull back, but it was too painful, she couldn't handle the pain of the creatures bony tail sliding out of her shoulder. She was about to just give up and let the thing kill her when she heard Sumiko's voice.
"Hey!……Ugly!…." Sumiko had no clue what to say, the words just kind of slipped out of her mouth. She was scared out of her mind, and couldn't believe she was actually near this creature in the first place.
The alien turned its head toward Sumiko, it didn't have eyes, so it must have been an intimidating gesture. It quickly ripped it tail out of Ryann, tossing her body out from its hiding spot in the process. It whipped its tail at Sumiko, not to impale her with it, but to fling Ryann's blood in her direction. The blood splattered across Sumiko's face, it was like the creature was mocking her. The alien began to slowly inch its way toward Sumiko as she began to take a few steps back.

Travus made it to the garage, but soon realized that he had made a stupid mistake, he had left the keys to the van with Derick. He would have to start the van the old fashioned way.
Travus went to open the drivers side door, but found that it was locked. "Who locked this?" He was starting to get angry. All he wanted to do was get out of the warehouse, away from everything that was going wrong.
He brought the M16 up and smashed the drivers side window open with the butt of the gun. Glass shattered everywhere. He quickly unlocked the door and opened it, ready to start hot wiring the van. "This is great." There was glass all over the seat, he took the butt of the gun and stared sweeping some of the glass shards off of the seat.
Travus needed to hurry, there was no telling how soon Clay or Tausha would be coming to get him, and there was no doubt in his mind those two were pissed.
He heard a noise at the garage door, someone, or something was starting to open it. Whatever it was had to be extremely strong, that door weighed a ton. Now Travus was starting to get scared, he stopped caring about the stupid glass and decided to just start the van.

"I have to ask you something." Clay was looking down at Tausha who was still snuggling up against him.
"Yes?" Tausha looked up at Clay and smiled.
"I want you to be only mine, I choose you as my life mate, if you will accept." Clay felt Tausha release him from her hug, then watched her take a step back and look at him as if she were surprised.
"Life mate? You mean like marriage?"
Clay tilted his head in confusion, " What is marriage?"
Tausha smiled, "Marriage is when two people that love each other very much, decide to spend the rest of their lives together. They start a family with one another."
Clay nodded his head, "Yes, that is a life mate, I ask you to be my marriage mate."
Tausha giggled, "You want me to marry you?" Her gaze fell to the floor, "Why me?" Doubts ran through her mind, she loved him, but she doubted either of their species would ever except them as lovers.
Clay went to Tausha and placed his finger under her chin, pulling her gaze back up to him, he was getting real used to doing that. "Because….I love you."
A tear ran down Tausha's cheek, "How can I say no to you, you're my hero." She smiled, the doubts disappeared and she decided she didn't care what anyone else thought. "I'd love to be your life mate." She was blushing, Clay could see the pink starting to appear on her cheeks.
Clay wiped the tear from Tausha's cheek, then hugged her, his arms wrapped around her waist as he picked her up off the ground. He felt her arms rest around his neck, then heard her whisper to him. "I love you too." She leaned in and kissed the part of his mask that covered his mandibles, then pulled back smiling.
Clay slowly put Tausha down, lightly caressing her spine all the way up to the back of her neck as he did. She closed her eyes and let out a quiet moan of satisfaction.
"You've found my one weakness." Tausha's eyes were still closed, and she could feel Clay's fingers still lightly rubbing the back of her neck.
"You like this?" Clay tilted his head to one side again.
Tausha just smiled and nodded as he continued to caress her neck gently. Then Clay noticed she was starting to breath a little quicker, and her body temperature was rising. She grabbed his hand tightly and pulled it away from her neck. She was looking at him wide eyed, "Stop that."
"What? I thought you liked it." Clay tilted his head once again. "Is it making you sick?"
"No, it was…..actually….starting to turn me on." Tausha bit her bottom lip lightly and looked up at Clay, then she felt her cheeks grow warm, she knew she was blushing again.
Clay tilted his head a little more then made a few clicking noises with his mandibles, "Does that mean I was pleasuring you?" He almost sounded proud of himself, "Maybe we should head to my ship now." He started laughing, but it definitely wasn't the sound a human makes.
"Are you making fun of me?" Tausha's hands were on her hips and she was glaring at Clay.
"No, never. To be honest, I liked the sight of your milk glands when I wrapped your wound the other day." Clay crossed his arms and looked down at her, he was going to say something more, but she cut him off.
"Wow, that makes me feel so much better." Tausha was obviously being sarcastic. "Lets go, two aliens got past me and I want to make sure my friends are alright." She walked to the door and looked back at Clay, "Come on, I'm not leaving you this time, just please don't kill my friends…..if they're even still alive."
Clay walked over to Tausha and ran his fingers through her hair. "I love you, if your friends mean so much to you, I will protect them for you, but I will protect you before anyone else." He lightly ran his finger across her cheek and watched her smile.
"Aww, your so sweet, I love you too." Tausha hugged him, snuggling her cheek up against his chest. She loved his sent, it was a little musky, but she didn't mind it at all.
He loved when she did that, the warmth of her body against his felt wonderful, not to mention it did turn him on just a bit. But he didn't want to admit that now, he'd tell her later. "Let us save your friends so we can get back to my ship." He sounded a little anxious.
"Alright, sounds good." Tausha looked at Clay with suspicion, then decided she didn't really want to know why he was so anxious. She grabbed his hand, then they took off running down the hall towards the prisoners cells.

Brandy brought up the 9MM, aiming it at the alien with the wounded shoulder, it was the obvious alpha male, the second alien followed its every move. She was about to take the shot when Steven screamed in her ear, "Miss it!" She shot and totally missed. "Shut up!" She barked back at Steven, aiming at the wounded alien again. She was about to shoot, but once again Steven distracted her, he screamed as loud as he could, he sounded like a little girl. Brandy missed again, "Shit!" The aliens were getting closer.
Mandy glared at Steven, "You deserve to die." She brought up the fire extinguisher and sprayed him with it.
Steven pulled back screaming, "Oww! Stop it! That hurts! It's in my eyes!" He couldn't stop rubbing his burning eyes.
"Keep your loud mouth shut asshole!" Mandy turned back to face the approaching aliens, "Brandy, now's not the time to start shooting like Tausha, hit those bastards!"
Brandy quickly took two more shots at the alpha alien, but it dodged them, leaping at her and pinning her to the ground, the impact forced Brandy to lose the gun.
Mandy quickly began dousing the alien with her fire extinguisher, trying her best to get it off of Brandy, but the second alien whipped the extinguisher with its bony tail knocking it out of Mandy's hands. Then the alien swung its tail to whip Mandy across the face, but she ducked and avoided the blow, the alien brought its tail back, ready to impale Mandy with it. Just as the alien was about to stab Mandy, it was struck by a spear. The spear was thrown with such speed and force, that the alien flew a few feet until it was stuck up against a wall, where it struggled a little, then finally went limp and died.
Brandy watched as the alien on top of her stood up and looked at what threw the spear at his comrade. It hissed when it saw the muscular humanoid, then he charged at it. Brandy was thankful she was alive.
Steven had seen what happened to the alien, and it brought back the memories of what happened to Kelley. Even though his vision was a little blurred from the fire extinguisher, her knew Clay was out there. "Shit! I have to get out of here! Please don't let that thing get me!" He was begging Brandy.
"Like I'd do anything to help you." Brandy sounded kind of snobby as she looked away from Steven to watch the battle taking place in front of her.
The alien was approaching Clay and Tausha fast. Clay ejected his wrist blades and got ready to attack, but he felt Tausha hand rest gently on his shoulder, "What?" He tilted his head, his dread locks swung from the motion.
"This one's mine, we have some unfinished business." Tausha stepped forward pulling her new sword out of the sheath that rested across her back.
The alien jumped forward, it was going to totally ignore Tausha and just attack Clay. So Tausha waited for the perfect moment, and just as the alien passed her, she brought her sword across it's throat, slicing its head clean off. The aliens body fell limp as its head landed on top of it, rolling off the body and landing on the floor.
Tausha stared blankly at her new sword, it cut through the alien so easily, and it wasn't getting dull at all. Her old sword had to be fixed constantly after her battles with aliens, plus she had to apply layers of a special coating Mac had made to stop the acid blood from eating completely through it. "This is amazing." She smiled at Clay, "I love it." She whipped it down, splattering the aliens blood off of it and across the floor, then she placed it back in its sheath.
"It's made with hard meat bones, good for killing many of them." Clay walked up to Tausha and lightly patted the top of her head, "Good kill, this will go on your trophy wall."
Tausha smiled bashfully, "That's great, my first real trophy."
Brandy and Mandy were slowly approaching Tausha.
"Is it safe to be around that thing?" Brandy was pointing at Clay with a disgusted look on her face.
"He's not a thing! His name is Clay, and he just saved your sorry asses." Tausha couldn't believe Brandy's disrespect towards Clay.
"Sorry, um….Clay, thank you for saving us." Brandy smiled and nodded at Clay.
"Oh yeah! Clay, this is Brandy and Mandy, they're my two best friends, and room mates." Tausha pointed at the girls to indicate which was which for Clay.
Clay just nodded at the two girls. There was an awkward silence for a couple minutes until the sound of Steven screaming at the top of his lungs drew every ones attention to his cell.
