CH. 7- Time To Go!

Lex and Scar slowly enter the nest. Lex looked disguised by it, but went on slowly ahead of Scar. She noticed Miller's camera with the picture of his two boys laying in the slim. She was saddened by it, yet hoped he could be saved.

"Miller!" she called. She walked on and called again, "Miller!"

Finally she entered the main room that held the nest. She saw many opened eggs, and then she saw him. Miller was pasted to the wall with a gaping hole in his chest. It was too late. She looked to the floor where she saw a dead scorpion-like creature and a gun. She looked back up at him bitter-sweetly. 'I know you tried.' she thought sadly. 'For your boys.'

She walked over to the gun and set the spear down. Then she picked the gun up. She gave Miller one last sad look. Suddenly she heard breathing. She looked around. She soon saw him. She gasped.

"Sebastian!" He looked at her weakly.

"Help me, Lex." he pleaded. She tucked the gun away, rushing to him.

"I'm gonna get you out of there!" she said desperately. As she tried to pulled the slim off him he looked down to her.

"It's too late! It's inside of me!"

"I'm gonna get you out of here!" she said about to cry.

"You can't!" he said. Lex saw the three red dots settle upon Sebastian's chest.

"No! No!" she said turning to Scar as he was walking towards them. "No!"

She tried to block Scar from coming closer. He pushed her aside. Sebastian gasped.

"No! No!" Lex yelled. "I have to help him!"

Scar looked into Sebastian. An Xenomoph was about to come out. Then he looked down at Lex. 'I know she loves him, but she has to let him go.' he thought sadly.

"Lex!" cried Sebastian. Lex turned to him. "They mustn't reach the surface! They mustn't reach the surface!" Sebastian groaned from the pain.

"I know." she said about to cry, but trying to be strong. Sebastian was in pain. Scar looked at Lex. 'If she can't do this, I will have to kill her.' he thought. She cocked the gun. She began to shake. She aimed at Sebastian.

"Do it!" he yelled. "Do it!"

Lex struggled with it. Scar watched. 'Just do it!' he thought. 'Don't make me kill you!'

"I'm sorry!" she cried. "I'm sorry!" Then she pulled the trigger. Sebastian instantly died. Lex stood there shaking. Scar felt a sad relief. Lex dropped the gun and walked away. Scar looked at her as she did. 'Thank you.' he thought.

Then he looked back at Sebastian. The little Xenomoph popped out. Scar grabbed it. it wiggled in his hand for a minute. then he snapped it's neck and growled in disguised. Lex picked up her spear. She was ready to leave. The two of them heard loud banging and screeching at that moment. Scar looked to the unopened eggs. They began to slowly open. He looked at Lex. 'I have to get her out!' he thought unselfishly.

He quickly began to set the bomb on his wrist. Lex looked at it curiously. He pointed to it, then made a boom gesture.

"It's a bomb." she said. 'Very good.' he thought. She looked around, and said harshly, "Well I hope it kills every fuckin' one of 'em!"

He took it off as it beeped. Then he threw it into the middle of the eggs. They ran for it as fast as they could.

At that time Celtic's wristband beeped an alert. They looked at it.

The bomb's been set." he said. "We must move."

She put on her jacket and helped him get his armor back on. Then they left.

When Lex and Scar got to the lift, Lex put the spear on it and went to turn it on. There was slim on the controls! She looked up. 'Have they already reached the surface?!' she thought. Scar watched.

'She needs to hurry!' he thought. She pressed emergence release. 'Enter access code' appeared. She put it in as fast as she could, but suddenly an Xenomoph jumped down upon Scar and pulled the gun off. Lex looked over shocked. It stabbed Scar in the right shoulder. Lex noticed one of the light guns on a crate. She quickly grabbed it and turned to Scar and the beast.

"You are one ugly mother-" she said. Then as it was about to kill Scar she shot it. Scar knocked the dead creature off him with a growl. The body slide to the feet of several more Xenomophs and they looked mad.

'Oh shit!' thought Lex and Scar. The lift began to move now. They jumped on just as the bomb exploded. They held on tightly. The waves from the bomb caused the lift to move at an alarming rate.

'This would be fun if we weren't in a fatal situation.' Scar thought. When they reached the top, the lift flung out of the hole and slammed into the ground. The two were thrown off. Scar helped Lex to her feet, grabbing her spear, and pushing her ahead. Then a wave from the explosion knocked them down. They stood up quickly and ran as the explosion destroyed the ice beneath their feet. they almost didn't make it on the one last leap, but thankfully they landed safely.
