*The alpha aliens trip had been cut short, almost breaching the security doors on the blast elevator to level 2, the matriarch tuned into the mighty warriors bio-electrical impulses and motioned for him to return.
Without question, the first born quickly lept back towards the slick metallic cable holding the once operational lift. In one swift motion, the xenomorph wrapped its tail around the cable and began to lower itself back down to engineering level 3.
