Chapter 12: Is This The End?
Mercy was walking under the trees, talking with Xenan. "So, where do we go?" - He asked her. "I don't really know. We will probably end up in a cave or an abandoned building." "Well, let's just hope we will be okay." - Erik interrupted their conversation with a smile on his face. He was mostly like that - happy. "We will be okay, don't worry about that. The only question is... can we trust Xeyana?". James was talking with her and he said "Hey Xeyana, what do you like eating?" "Humans." - She answered and then laughed at James' expression. "Just kidding. I've tryed humans, but the meat from animals is tastyer." "Oh, okay." - James said with a smile. He wasn't really thinking about the attack. He remembered the world before this happen and was wondering what was happening around Earth. Were they going to survive this and if they did survive it, how are they going to live? His thoughts were interrupted be Seth, whose wound was bad. "Hey James, what do you think of Xeyana?" - Seth whispered and James answered "I think she's cute, you?" "I don't trust her. I think she has something in mind." "Why so?" "I just can feel it. Don't trust her too much, okay." "Okay..."
My plan works! James trusts me already and I must only have the trust of the others and BAM I will betray them. They will suffer while I will have higher rank in the hive! - Xeyana was thinking to herself while the others were walking and looking for a place to spend the coming night. They didn't know that this night may be their last. "There, a cave!" - one man pointed at a close mountain and everyone started walking towards it. "How much food do we have?" - Mercy asked and a woman said "We have three deer steaks and one rabbit." "This should be enough for dinner, I hope." - Mercy asked, looking at Xenan.
The dark night sky covered everything with darkness. Few people made a fire and prepared their beds. Mercy and Xenan sat next to each other and prepared to eat and Erik was now with his emotionless face and said "Great. Now we have to sleep here." "Our ancestors slept like that, so be happy with it" - Mercy answered to him. Xeyana was pretending to do something helpful and then sent a message to her hive and xenos were now on their way. She was a traytor and noone from the camp knew about it. She was the cause of the attack on the camp.
After dinner Xenan curled around Mercy and they were soon sleeping. After that Erik drifted to sleep too and James was still awake and was talking with Seth. The other people soon were sleeping and Xeyana was pretending to sleep. "What do you think will happen tomorrow?" - James asked and Seth answered "I don't know. We probably are going to walk all day and then stop for the night and we will be like that until we finally make it to the rest of the society." "Oh... that is a good thought, but if we even make it to there, how do you think they will react to you and the xenos?" "We will see if they are still alive." "What do you mean by that?" "Xenos are fast-spreading species and no wonder in a year the so-called Earth is taken over by them." "Oh, that is a dark thought." ''But true one'' - Seth finished the conversation and then went to take a nap. ''Night James.'' ''Night Seth.''
"Did the team arrived on Earth?" - Weyland asked his brother, who was looking at their only xeno. "Yes, they did several hours ago." "Nice. Hehehe, finally I will have an army of xenos! We are this close to researching completely this new technology!" - Weyland said with an evil smile. "Soon, brother. Soon an army of xenomorphs will obey our comands." - Jim, Weyland's brother, said happily.
Mercy was looking at Xenan while he was sleeping and thought "What will I do without you? You are my best friend and boyfriend." Then a loud screech awoken everybody and a man went to check it out. "Aaaaaaah! Help me!" was all they heard when the man got out of the cave. "The xenomorphs are attacking!" - Erik said and got out the rifle he took during the last battle versus the xenos. He shot a few rounds and didn't have anymore left, so he took out his knife and stayed in a defensive position. Seth and Xenan attack and Erik followed them with three other men. They suddenly heard some gunshots and shouts from outside the cave. After that they got the xenos' attention and Weyland's best team was surrounded by around 30 xenos. That gave an opportunity for the people from the camp to escape with Seth and Xenan. During this battle, Xeyana stayed to fight for her hive. "Xeyana, come on! Let's go!" - James shouted and got her attention, but got shot in her body by a marine. "Nooo!" - James went to Xeyana "James... I am... sorry for betraying... all of you. Go with... the others..." were her last words and kissed him after that. James hugged her and said "No... don't die. Please, don't die..." Tears emerged in his eyes and went down his face and then fell on the ground. He was sobbing and he loved Xeyana from the moment he saw her. He let out a loud scream of emotional pain for losing the one who loves for a second time. He stayed there for a minute more and took out his pistol and said ''Mercy, go with the others. I will deal with them." "No, you are com..." "Go, NOW." this time she listened to him and ran with the others. "I will avenge for my family and Xeyana." - James said to himself and shot a few soldiers and xenos without problem.
