"Eclipse?! What are you doing here?! You were supposed to stay with your family!" I exclaimed.

The dragons ears lowered as I raised my voice, but when I saw this I immediately felt bad. I sighed and kneeled down to pet him.

"Sorry, I'm just surprised to see you here. You were supposed to stay with your family, it was to protect you."

Eclipse rawred in a way that to me sounded like "I'm sorry". Well now I can't get him home. The portal closed behind us and I don't know how to open it again, he's stuck with us. I heard Fugi sigh as he then looked around at the empty city, town, wherever we are. Suddenly a terrible smell hit my nose, I gagged at the whiff of it and covered my mouth.

"Dear God what is that STENCH??" My voice was muffled by my hand.

"I don't know, but I believe it's coming from this way." Fugi pointed to an alleyway.

From said alleyway, we heard a pained groan. Eclipse chirped and went prancing towards the alley.

I felt imaginary needles poking at my heart.

*   *   *   *

The Night Light pranced towards the alleyway as Sky and Fugi followed, they peer into the alley to see a bleeding man with several fatal injuries in his torso. The young girl gasped and ran to the dying man's side almost immediately, kneeling down to check his pulse. Eclipse stared at the injured man with large eyes as Fugi approached Sky, the little dragon fearfully stepping closer.

"Sir, what happened? We need to get you to a hospital right now, do you know where one is?" Sky asked, her voice very calm and concerned.

The man's pale blue eyes slowly looked to the human, most of the life he once possessed was gone.

"A hospital...wouldn't be able...to save me..." the man coughed up blood, "I'm good as dead...heh..."

Sky looked as if she were going to cry, but she took a deep breath.

"Don't talk like that mister, I'm sure there's something they can do to help." She assured.

The man weakly grabbed her arm, "It's too late..."

Fugi then growled, "Ooman, step away from him. Something is wrong with him, very wrong."

"No shit, he's dying." She said sarcastically.

"Not THAT, I feel something is off. Don't you as well?" The alien asks.

"Of course I do, but his words are genuine." Sky answered.

The man coughed up more blood onto his already bloodstained shirt, taking the girls hand gently.

"Can you...grant me one last request..?" He asked hoarsely.

"Certainly, what is it?" She asks.

The man faintly smiled, "Get whatever comes out of me..."

The dying man sputtered and coughed, leaning back against the alley wall as he went limp. Sky appeared saddened but rather confused at his last request, she glanced to Fugi with a raised brow.

"What the hell did that mean?" She asked.

The imprisoned Autobots thought the very same at the males last dying breath, until what happened next. The man's corpse then moved, startling the human and small dragon. Eclipse hid behind Fugi as Sky jumped to her feet, their attention on the dead body. The cadaver then moved again, but this time more violently. This wasn't the man's doing, it was something else. The Yautja then pulled the young girl back as he knew exactly what was happening, growling angrily as the man's body moving.

Then the man's chest bursted open, a squeal was heard as a small pale pink serpent like creature poked it's head out of the corpse. Sky looked mortified at the snake animal covered in the man's blood, the creature looking to the small group of sentient beings before it.

"He was FACEHUGGED!! He had a chestburster!!" Sky exclaimed.

The "chestburster" screeched and slithered out of the cadaver, but she quickly ran after it.

"What are you doing?!" Fugi shouted.

"The guy asked me to get whatever came out! I have to!" She shouted back.

The chestburster slithered in between debris of sorts to avoid the human catching it, but alas that did not stop her from giving chase. Sky pushed the debris from her path as the serpent was about to slither into a pipe, she quickly dashed to it and grabbed the end of its tail.

"Gotcha!!" She said.

The chestburster screeched and thrashed around as she lifted it off the ground, her other hand grabbing around it's neck so it wouldn't thrash so much. She took a deep breath and sighed of relief, Fugitive and Eclipse approaching her. The dragon tilted his head with a few chirps as he stared at the alien in his riders grasp, his little tail wagging slowly.

"I gooootttttt it." Sky said with a large smile as she did a little excited dance.

"Good, now kill it." Fugi crossed his arms.

Sky's smile disappeared, "What?! It's just a baby! Not the prettiest baby for sure, but still a newborn!"

"And when it's grown within a few hours, it will be deadly." He argued.

The chestburster squeals and continues to try and escape, but Sky held it tight enough to keep it from doing so.

"Fugi, you're asking me to kill a child. I CANNOT do that. I love children, well the ones that aren't entitled and selfish little douchebags, and this one-"

"Is a xenomorph, a Yautjas greatest prey." Fugi interrupted.

"Well in case you forgot, I'm not a Yautja! I'm just a human who is ordered to go on this quest for 5 gemstones that were scattered across 5 other dimensions, and once I have them all I'm supposed to give them to 4 giant evil alien robots!" She shouted.

Eclipse whimpered as Sky shouted at the Predator, who was remaining completely calm and unphased. The human noticed that her little dragon was scared as she raised her voice again in a hostile way, she took a deep breath to calm herself down. The chestburster had ceased struggling as it then chittered at her.

"Okay, I'm sorry I yelled. But I'm under a tremendous amount of stress and my anxiety is through the roof, asking me to kill a baby only adds to it." She said calmly.

"I know you are, and I partially understand where you are coming from." The alien sighed.

The girl perked, "You do?"

"Yes, I can be as empathetic as you can be. But be warned that once it's grown, if it attacks you, me, or your little winged reptile, I will personally rip its head off." He said firmly.

"Seems fair enough to me. You hear that, little guy? Or girl, whatever. You can come with us!" She said to the chestburster.

The chestburster chittered again and let out a squeaky little rawr, Sky then held the alien snake like she was cradling a human baby. The serpent curled up in her arms and chirped at her, she smiled and giggled. Fugi stared as the baby xenomorph was completely comfortable near the human before him.

"Alright now THAT shit," he pointed to the curled up serpent, "Is NOT normal."

"I'm not normal, and I've always been in love with reptiles. These ARE considered reptiles right?" She asks.

"Yes, perhaps we should keep a close eye out for any ovomorphs and fully grown serpents." Fugi said.

"Oh for sure, I REEEAAALLLLYYYY don't need to get facehugged. Those I won't care if you go for, but this Xeno baby is mine. I guess I'm a Xeno mom now. Just don't tell the Queen Xenomorph." She laughed.

"If there were a Queen nearby, there would be dozens of drones and runners around protecting their nest. This is someone else's doing." The Yautja clicked and looked around.

The human went silent as her smile faded, she looked around the deathly silent area. Her eyes widened as she came to a realization, looking to Fugi with a horrified expression.

"Oh God, I think I know where we are. We need to find that gem FAST!" She said fearfully.

"What?" He asks.

"If I'm right on where we are, we might never get out of this world alive." Sky said seriously.

"Where are we then?" Fugi tilts his head, Eclipse as well.

"If I'm right, we are in a movie called Aliens versus Predator: Requiem. I haven't seen it, but I know a little bit about it. There's a Yautja xenomorph hybrid, aka the Predalien, roaming around a town with a posse of facehuggers, but he doesn't really need them as he can literally impregnate hosts by itself through the mouth. He's literally a bipedal facehugger."

"Repulsive abomination. How does it end?" Fugi asks.

"It ends with a fucking nuke being dropped and blowing this entire town of the map!" She exclaimed with a panicked voice.

Fugi reared his head back, "You're right, we need to hurry. Do you have any idea of where the next stone is?"

"I think so, there was a hospital. Don't know much about what happened in the hospital, but I think that's where we should look first. Let's go."
