Chapter 13. X for Xenomorph
(Queen! Portal opens!) The warrior said.
Queen looked at portal. It was their only source for prey and child givers.
Long ago, when she was at jungle, the prey came and took her away! They put her in metal cave, and she had eggs. Sometimes prey would come through portal, and they would eat them or turn them into child givers.
The warrior ran to portal as it opened, and dragged the prey back!
(This prey already dead! This prey smells different!)
Give me prey! Queen said.
This prey did smell different! She felt prey. It was bigger than other prey, and had very many holes in its body. Blood was coming out of the holes!
Eat this prey. She said.
Not very long after they were done, portal opened again! The prey that was inside smelled just like the first prey to come through portal that morning! As it backed out of portal, it bumped into an egg! The egg opened up!
Before a grabber could jump out of egg, New-prey put long stick in egg! Another grabber jumped on new prey's face, but it couldn't get past its shell! New-prey ripped the grabber off and threw it across metal cave! It tried to go back through portal, just like most other prey. A warrior jumped on its back and dragged it to nest! New-prey killed the warrior with claws sticking out of its wrist, but some of the warrior's blood got on New-preys back!
It screamed at the top of its lungs! Another warrior ran up to it, but new prey jumped out of its path and sliced through its head with the claws! A third one made its move, but this time New-prey blew it to pieces by shooting fire from its wrist!
Such a strong prey would make a powerful warrior, thought Queen. She paid close attention to the prey as it pulled the sharp stick out of the egg and used it to cut off the head of one warrior, and the waist of another! Another grabber jumped at the New-prey, but it sliced the poor thing in half! It shot more fire from its wrist, only this time it destroyed an egg!
Queen screamed!
COCOON IT NOW!
Six warriors ran up to it, but it pulled out a long metal claw! It cut off the first warriors face, the second one's arm and leg, the third one's head, the fourth's waist, both of the fifth's legs, and cut the last warrior right down the middle! It charged through several eggs with the claw, and turned to face Queen!
It ran towards her at top speed, as she just brooded! But the moment New-prey got close enough, she whacked it in the chest with her tail as hard as she could! It flew all the way out of the main part of the nest, and slammed into the other side of metal cave with a deafening sound!
CRACK!
The nearest warriors ran up to it.
(The prey is not moving, but it is still breathing!) One told her.
Cocoon it! Queen said once again.
That new baby might be what we need to get out of metal cave, she thought. Or, it could become queen and kill her! She laid another egg while she pondered. Another egg hatched nearby New-prey! Queen smiled as a grabber came out and latched onto New-preys face.
Either way, it would die!
