Note: I do not own or have anything to do with The Predator franchise. The only reason why I have wrote this fanfiction was for entertainment purposes and I will not be making any profit from it in any way, shape or form.
P.S. If you haven't read Claimed by a Predator, you would need to read it since this is the sequel to it.
Chapter Eight
Day gave way into night across the area of the Earth where Cohra was with his mate and his little girl. Once they had gotten out of the pool at the waterfall and they had gotten something to eat, he assisted Marion with taking care of Mariah getting her ready for bed and fixing her up in one of the escape pods that were nestled on his ship that was big enough for her to lie inside of on the cushioned seat for the night until they would go back to her family's home to start work on fixing it up for the three of them to move into. He made his way over to where he had a computer monitor on a wall and activated it to see about having his scanner to focus on the atmosphere outside of the earth for any indications that there were other ships of his people moving closer to the planet since the elder had made the decision to send out a call out to all of the others of their kind that were in mother ships near the planet for them to come there and begin to take their home planet back over again after having been away from it for so long.
As he suspected, his gaze noticed there to be several, large mother ships of his people already starting to move in position in various parts of the Earth to begin the invasion in other others so they could spread across the globe, one of them seeming to be heading for the United States where his beloved Marion hailed from. He knew that this was just the start of things to come and there would be more of his kind to arrive there on the planet and they would not rest until they had colonized the entire Earth, making themselves the dominant species once again with humans being just below them. It was the start of a new era to come, and there would be dangers to come once the humans realized that they were now going to be targeted for either potential mating partners or allies who would serve them. There was sure to be an uprising to come from what was to happen, and he would have to deal with it as it came about, as would Marion, Mariah and their unborn child.
Moving himself away from the computer once he had shut it down, Cohra checked on his daughter to find her sleeping peacefully in the escape pod with a blanket that he had managed to find tucked away inside of it. He smiled at the sight of her resting away before he continued onto his bedroom to find Marion already lying in bed with just a thin blanket over top of her naked body and a smile on her face towards him. His frame made its way over to the side of the bed he normally slept on while his hands worked to remove the armor and weapons from his frame. As he worked away at what he was doing, he was met by Marion speaking up to him, softly.
"Did you see anything on your monitor?" She asked, curiously. She knew that he was working away at the monitor to see if there were any movements of his kind heading to her planet and wanted to know for herself if there was any movements. "Were there any ships?"
"Yes." He replied, softly, making sure to keep his voice down so he didn't wake Mariah from her sleep. "There were three mother ships that had already come through the atmosphere and are now heading to various spots on the planet to begin their invasion at."
"Were any of them heading towards the states?"
"At least one was seen to be moving in to the country that you are from, Marion." He looked to where she lied once he had told her the answer that she was seeking, and found her to be contemplating the news. His attention shifted to putting his armor up on the counter where it usually went before he proceeded to work on removing the armor that was on the lower half of his body. "The other two were moving to other spots of the globe to start their invasion from there so they could work their way out to cover more ground."
"Do you think it is just a matter of time now before it is all over the world, Cohra?"
"I do see it being very soon that all of my kind will be here once again, and that we are going to be running all over this planet like we used to."
"Do you believe that there will be a war to break out between the humans and your kind?"
"As much as I don't want to think about it, I am afraid it will come to war." He eased the armor down onto the counter before removing his mask from his face to expose his face to her as he spoke to her. "I can see your species not wishing to release their hold of dominion over this planet called Earth and they will do whatever it takes to make sure that my kind doesn't do that, even if it means many of their own will die in their pursuit of this cause that they have."
He looked over to her and found her being a little troubled at the news he had to share with her. The sight of her being a little uncomfortable at what he had to say to her moved him over to the bed to join her. Crawling beneath the cover that was concealing her body, Cohra positioned himself to where she could come over to lie on him. He let out a soft breath as her head moved to lie across his chest with one of her hands. He slipped his strong arms around her with one of his hands on the back of her head to play with her hair while his other hand relaxed at the small of her back. As he held her there within his arms, he released a soft whisper to her in preparation for sleep to overtake him.
"Let's not worry about what is to come right now. For the time being, let's just go to sleep with one another and dream of only what is to come tomorrow when we get to work on our very own house and prepare it for the days to come ahead of us, including the birth of our child."
The idea of war was something that was the farthest thing from his mind. He didn't want to even consider it. The only thing he wanted to think about at that moment was their future as a family unit in an uncertain world. He glanced down to her and found her already starting to drift off to sleep at his wish for them to rest for the time being. Seeing her sleeping brought a sense of calm over him, and had him to kiss the top of her head before he drifted off to sleep eventually himself.
