The power is off, the station is dead, Gaunt scuttles along the corridoors, seeking unkown prey.


'This Station has grown so quiet now, all the Humans have gone, run with their tails between their legs, HAH!'.

'AGGGHHHHH!!!, those guards were so tasty though, UGHHH!!, I need something, something more'.

Gaunt tilts his head, looking left then right.

'UHHH!, nothing to it then, just have to search the entire station, mabey something is on here ... someone ... trapped ... alone'.


Gaunt grinned and let out a shriek, scuttling down the corridoor to the research lab. Determined to find his unknown prey.

hears alarms go off and people leaving and he sits up and shakes the dazed feeling off.


then he looks around and remembers the fucking human apes caught him off guard after his ship landed and he got off it and made his way to the location of the artifact all he remembers was getting knocked out and heard some stupid ape gibberish before finally passing out and gets up and notices that everything is dark and the doors are open


he looked over and noticed the door to his cell was open and then he heads out of the room and then walks down a corridor and looks at the sign and kicks the door down and sees his gear there and approaches them and checks to see if every thing is there.


---------------------------------------------------------


he sorts through his equipment seeing that his two sets of arm blades that were made acid resistant before his pod crashed on this dank, humid, planet.



though he still can't believe that the fucking apes were able to catch him off guard like they did. as he gathers his gear up and gets himself armed as well and



thinks of the mission he was sent here for as he gets his gear on. find the artifact the humans took and retreive it and signal the ship that would be in orbit to land and exstract him.




simple right well not right now apparently he thought to him self as he gets his arm blades on his wrists. and his serrated whip also acid resistant on his belt along with the shuriken he brought with him.

---------------------------------------------------------


he grabs his combat stick and it collapses and he sets it on his belt aswell and then he gets his mask on and it's systems upload and does a quick diagnostics check and his plasma caster links up and his unsheaths his blades a few times then sheaths them again and heads out the door.




after he is all geared up with his chest armor, shoulder armor, boots, grieves on and then after he activates his cloaking he starts to make his way through the building to try and find the artifact and then get the hell out of here.




as he walks through the halls he remembers his lessons when he was being trained.



he was taught to always look around and also turns and looks behind him as he makes his way through the building always alert always ready for anything that might attack him weither it be ape or whatever else the fuck these apes have in this building.

'Hmmm ... security's down', Gaunt dangled infront of a stationary security turret, he had been there for at least five minutes.

'Yeah systems dead ... HAH!, perfect'. Gaunt dropped down and continued towards the research lab, 'Those Humans sent loads of probes, and they always find something of interest ... mabey something alive, to fight ... to devour'.

Gaunts mouth started to water, he scuttled faster to the security door and looked up, 'hmmm, a few minutes to open, can't sense anything living inside, strange object, old'.

He started to snarl, he could vaguely make out the object, meaning that it had come into contact with his kind before.

Gaunt started to pry the door open, he had grown tense, only certain things come into contact with his kind and survive, only time would tell what.

wakes around the building and to see if anything is in the building he lets out a thunderouse roar his arm blades unsheathed ready for anything to respond.



touches a few buttons on his wrist com and a holographic image appears a map of some sorts and a blip on the image shows him to location of the artifact and it also shows another blip nearby he snarls at the fact that something is near it and runs towards it.



being leaner and more adgile allows him to run faster and get to the artifact quicker and kill the thing that's at the artifact sooner his lean muscles tense as he prepares his mind for the fight that is sure to come
---------------------------------------------------------


as he nears the room he slows down and switches his vision modes and when he gets to xeno vision he sees a lone xeno morph in the room the artifacte is in and he hands clench into fists and crouches and leaps onto the upper level and then he activates his cloaking and unsheaths his blades and waits ready to strike when the time is right.



just like he had been taught in the trials when he was first becomeing a young blood that when fighting xenos not to let their blood get on you for it will eat through your skin.



let's out a low clicking growl as he stands against the wall not believeing that the humans had a xenomorph here and learned the hard way that they can't be contained and he has no doubt that this is the cause for the power being down and the reason he's out of his cell he was going to break out soon as he got up anyways but since he only had to walk out the door was just shear luck on his part.

Gaunt had pried through the research lab door, he was now staring at the object which had felt the touch of his species before.

It appeared to be some sort of hi-tech body armour, it was severly damaged, acid had obviously burned straight through it at one point, probably killing the wearer in the process.

Gaunt leapt up onto the examination table, turning his head he saw research notes, titled -Salvaged Predator tech- Classified: Hydra.

Next to the the damaged armour were six plasma casters, some damaged, the Humans had obviously been working hard to learn about this Predator tech, but now it was abandoned.

Gaunt turned his head round quickly, there was something in the room with him, he let out a loud hiss, 'HHHHHAEEEAAHHNHAH!' and started to move back.

If the Humans had Predator tech then the Preds would want it back, Gaunt growled, 'GGGRRRR! where are you then, Hunter'.

steps ot into view and growls at him and unsheaths his arm blades and then his cloaking deactivates and stands there alittle shorter then most predators but bends his knees and let's out a loud throatiing roar and readies for battle and eyes the hydra armor and recognizes it as the armor that one of the ancients wore and snarls feriously that the humans had such an ancient artifact in their posession infuriated him and also looks at the plasma casters and thinks 'these humans are lucky thy left cause they would have to deal with me and i would not let a single one live for defileing such things'.


then he turns his attention to the xenomorph but not before the creature leaps at him but he catches it and tosses it out one of the many windows of the room and jumps on to the window sile and then onto the floor and it shrieks at him with a high pitched shrill-like shriek that would hurt a humans ears and he charges and delivers knee to the creatures sternum then a kick to it's gut then he draws his combat stick and it extends and the blades on both sides where longer then the ones on the normal ones makeing his look like a double-sided naginata but the blades weren't as long and lets out a low deep growl and benst at the knees and ready to strike.


the xenomorphs tail swishes around behind it and when it lashes out he's ready for it and dodges it to the side and responds with a swing of his combat stick sliceing a shallow cut into it's arm and roars as it shrieks in pain and looks at it then collapses his combat stick and crouches and charges and slams his shoulder into the xenomorphs sternum and grabs it and runs through one wall and keeps through another

and another

and another

and another


until he lets it go and watches it fall through the air and steps to the edge and sees it hit the ground and jumps down and lands near it and watches it get up and thinks that he has only fought a few of these things.





most of the trophies he had in his collection were other beasts and some human skulls but only three xenomorph skulls and yearns to add this ones skull to his collecting and as he stands there he rolls his shoulders and then his neck and adiuble cracks are heard from it then he reaches for his combat stick and extends it but the creatures tail was to quick this time and knocks it out of his hand and he turns his head back to it and roars and feeling his muscles tense as he stares at the xenomorph thinking which weapon to use next to fight the creature with.



---------------------------------------------------------





a satilite is positioned over the area and is broadcasting a video feed to a screen in a room and a man stands there and watches as the predator and the xenomorph stare eachother down.


"is our satilite in position?"

"yes mister weylland"

"good then i want you to send a shuttle to that research base and gather the artfactes we collected and bring them here now" weyland said as he looks at the two creatures on the screen wondering if they'll be so busy fighting that they can get the artifactes retrieved without the predator noticeing until it's too late and have the artifactes already onboard the shuttle and already half way back before the predator catchs them and kills them all and causes them to lose some very important finds that can tell them so much about the predator race.

---------------------------------------------------------

Note: Do you realise I'm an overgrown chestburster?


Story:


Gaunt shrieked in fury, acid leaked from his arms, how the Predator had even managed to pull those hits off ... well it took alot of skill.

He faced the Predator, they were now circling each other, as his acid blood oxidised his wounds sealed and he streched himself out.

Gaunt whipped his tail to his left, the Hunters plasma caster fired towards it, as Gaunt moved to the right. The Hunter drews his blades as Gaunt swerved to his side.

However his reactions were too late as Gaunt pounced up directly at the Hunter, claws rended he grabbed onto the Hunters face mask.

The Hunter jerked back quickly, his blades retracted, swiping at his mask, trying to catch the overgrown chestburster that was covering it.
However he was too late, the Hunter scratched his own mask, while Gaunt was now clinging to the back of his head.

Gaunt pried his claws around the mask and ripped it off the Hunters face, as he did he flung his tail to the left, wacking the plasma caster that was desperatly trying to aim on him.

Gaunt flung himself backwards, pulling the mask off with him, the plasma caster damaged but not broken, it tried to follow him and could only slowly pivit as it tried, spark flying of as it moved.

The Hunter stumbbled forwards, he no longer had his mask, and his plasma caster was damaged, Gaunt looked up at the Hunter, it sharply raised itself up and turned in his direction, as it stared at him, Gaunt could see true fury in it's eyes, he grinned, his mind raced, 'HAHAHAH!!, now Hunter lets see how you do without your mask!'.

Gaunt crushed the mask in his grasp, he didn't know if the Hunter realised what he just done but it didn't matter. He let out a loud shriek and started to circle the Hunter again.



_____________________________________________________


The saterlite feed was distored but what had happened was clear enough.

"Mr Weyland!, the artifact is unguarded, the Hunter and the Xenomorph are busy with each other, this is the perfect oppertunity!"

"That it is Mr Kerstonstich, that it is ... send in the androids, the artifact is the main objective but if possible bring back the Hunter and the Xenomorph, alive."

"Very well sir, Synthetic squads 1, 2 and 3 online, board the station, your objectives are clear ... oh and if you can't bring the specimens back alive then bring them back dead".

Command confirmed!!!

"Knock out the power before you enter, the Hunter will be vunerable but watch out for the Xenomorph, now move out".

_____________________________________________________

turns to face to overgrown chest burster and roars his mask off and he takes his plasma caster off and converts it into a pistol and then he takes out his combat stick and twirls it around then aims and firs a net at the chest burster and it tries to get away but he doesn't move in time and gets caught in the net and he walks up to the chest burster and growls and then cuts off it's annoying tail so it can't use it and then he takes out his plasma caster that he converted into a pistol and gets ready to aim when he hears some voices and growls and then gets his mask on and jumps onto the ledge and starts to make his way back to the artifacte.


as he does he keeps watch for the chestburster cause it could come at him at any time and switches to thermal and growls as he sees what look like humans but different in the room and handleing the artifacte and activates his cloaking and goes in

---------------------------------------------------------

"synthetic one to base we have retreived the articate and are beginning to return to the shuttle"


"roger that synthetic one watch out for the xenomorph mostly but also watch out for the hunter we beilive that the artifact is it's real objective."


"roger that base over and out" the android turns to the others "alright lets get going"


"yes sir"


---------------------------------------------------------



listens to them and knows that their not human apes but more robotic then flesh androids he thought so the apes had androids at it's disposal then why didn't they use them to protect the base it would have made his job alot easier then he sneaks in and approaches the nearst one unsheathes his blades and kills the guy from behind and then pulls the blades out and then retracts them and after diactivateing his cloak he takes out his combat stick and takes out the rest of them dodgeing their bullets and looks at them and just growls and grabs the armor and casters and makes his way out of the building but still alert.

Note: Um ... did you miss the part of my last post where I crushed your mask, just saying, everything else was fine though :)


Story:


As the metalic net compressed around him Gaunt shrieked in pain, the Hunter had even cut off his tail which made it even worse.

Wasting no time Gaunt thrusted about frantically in the ever tightening net, as he did his acidic blood squirted out of his wound, covering the net and breaking it apart.

Gaunt now faced self preservation, he was covered in deep gashes from the net and his tail was gone, his blood had oxidised however so bleeding wasn't too much of an issue for now.

He scanned the room quickly, finding his tail, he grabbed it, positioned it over the stump where is originally was. He sliced open his stump and pushed the tail back in, letting out a loud shriek of pain as he did.

Gaunt fell forward for a moment, the floor starting to wear away, his tail now reattached, it wouldn't heal or work properly until he got to a safe area and was able to hybernate again.

Gaunt now had to find a way of this station, the Hunter was probably very dangerous now. Gaunt could imagine it, the Hunter had probably just walked in and picked up the Hydra suit, it wouldn't work 100% in it's condition at the moment but some of the plasma casters would probably be reattachable, a suit that allows the wearer to fire up to six plasma casters at once, Gaunt shuddered, military predator gear with devistating power, hopefully the Hunter didn't realise the power of the weapon he had in his posession.

Gaunt scuttled off in the direction of the research lab, with any luck he could get back through to the probe bay, if he could then escape would be possible.

As he entered the research lab he hissed in anger, the suit was gone, and three synthetics lay dead on the floor, Gaunt chuckled to himself, 'Hah! Humans sent in the droids, Shit!'.

At this point it the suit didn't matter anymore, Gaunt knew that he had to get off the sation quick, the Humans could see through the synthetics they used, as soon as they learn'd where the Predators ship was they'd try to hit it, taking out the station in the process.

He hurried out of the research lab and down to the security corridoors, hoping that he could get out before the Hunter got back to his ship.



_____________________________________________________


"Mr Weyland, synthetic squad 1 is down, however the experimental radar system was succesfully installed into the station, we're tracking the Hunter, he has the artifact. Surpisingly we're tracking the Xenomorph aswell, what do you want us to do?"

_____________________________________________________

"take the xenomorph out at all costs and track the hunter aswell" he says looking at the monitor with a stern look.


"yes sir" they launch a missile heading towards the station.



---------------------------------------------------------


makes his way to his ship and thinks about how the humans could have used the tech if they figured out how to work it and just shakes his head and when he gets to his ship he opens the bay door and heads in and then contacts the mothership and says that he is takeing off and will meet them in orbit.

they acknowledge it and asks him if he has the artifacte and he says yes and they congradulate him and look forward to seeing him and the artifacte soon.

he fires up the engines and heads off and his scanners show a missile heading towards the station and just chuckles that they won't hit him as he soars towards space.

Gaunt scuttled dwon the security corridoor, as he turned the next corner the Geological probe bay came into view.

Swiftly running straight towards it, he suddenly skid under a gab in the crushed security door which had been pried open after the first efforts to contain him.

Gaunt scanned the room quickly, several of the probes had been released prior to his arrival and the probe he arrived in was too damaged.

As he scanned the area once more a red light started to flash on the wall, the emergency power had been activated, meaning the monitoring systems must of been online, and now there was a proximity alert, the light flashed franticly, a message played 'WARNING PROXIMITY ALERT, BRACE FOR IMPACT'.


There was no time left now, Gaunt grabbed the probe he had entered the station with and pulled it along to wards the airlock, as he got there, with his other claw he sliced the pressure restraints and slashed through the door itself.


Gaunt was swept out of the station along with the probe which he held onto tightly, he pulled himslf up onto and slid himself into the probe. He started to cough up resin, using it to seal the door shut, as he did he saw a bright flash and felt a strong shock wave which shook the probe violently, he had got off just in time, the station had been destroyed.


Gaunt finished sealling up all the cracks in the probe, it was getting warmer now, which meant he was entering the atmoshpere of the nearest planet. He curled himself into a ball and startd to sleep, he'd wake up soon and then have the chance to heal and feed.

As he started to drift off he thought, 'we'll meet again Hunter, when we do we will have a real fight', he grinned, then fell into a slumber.



Note: Well Shadow_Hunter unless you want to add anything I think this battle is over, thats RPG-ing for you. Next time I won't give you a weapon of mass destruction to collect, good job :)

note: thanks gaunt i enjoyed that and if waralien is still looking for a fight i'll give him one too
