Chapter Two: The Xenomorph
The bell rang and Erik was tired. He didn't sleep much last night. The tall teenager entered the classroom and few of his schoolmates greeted him. "How's going?" - his best friend, Fredrik, asked him. "I am sleepy. I always am when I go to school." - Erik answered. "Did you hear the news? People have finally returned from 469CP! And this morning almost all of them were dead!" - Fredrik said. That woke up Erik and he was curious how they died. "How did they die?" "They have holes in their chests and the almost everyone in the hospital died!". Erik wasn't believing him, but when he saw his friend's face he was conserned.
Mercy was in her classroom when she and the others heard some strange noises coming from outside - something like screeches. She and her classmates looked out of the window and saw... nothing. Maybe it was some animal - Mercy said in her mind. But then she heard screams, including Erik's, from the room under them. They were students in the same school.
Erik was in his classroom when something frightening happened to him. He was playing games on his phone when something broke the window. Then he saw it. He saw a xenomorph. The creature killed several students from his class and then looked at him. It saw and smelled the fear of Erik. The xenomorph started running at him, but he escaped as Fredrik told him to run. He started running and when he looked back he saw the alien tearing his friend apart. "Noooo!!!" - Erik yelled at the xenomorph. Erik was now furious and grabbed his knife, a gift from his father, and runned at the xenomorph, but then he heard gunshots and saw soldiers shooting at the xenomorph. As the aliens' dead body collapsed on the wooden floor, Erik saw it's blood melting the wood.
Mercy ran to the 2nd floor to see soldiers and her brother. She was happy to see that Erik is okay, until she saw the dead xenomorph. "What the fuck is that!?" - She asked with fear in her eyes. "It's classified." - One of the soldiers told her. She was more curious than frightened now. Erik told her everything he saw and she was sad about Fredrik. "Poor Fred gave his life for you. That is a real friend." - She said with tears in her eyes. "Come on, let's go home for our safety." - Erik said. In an answer, Mercy agreed and they headed home with two soldiers to guard them.
When they got home they quickly gathered everything they needed and tryed to call their parents. Erik called their mom and told her to not move from her workplace. She worked as shop assistant and their father worked as businessman. Mercy hadn't such luck and couldn't call her father. He wasn't answering and she was very concerned about him. They called their bigger brother - James. James answered and told them to meet in the town hall.
Jason was coming back from work and heard some screams. He saw some people run and after them was that enormous 2 and a half meters tall creature. He got his gun out and killed the alien with one bullet in the head. His pistol was strong and he had good aim. after that he heard some more of these creatures behind him. He quickly turned around and saw about 3 of the xenomorphs. They were not very close - about 20 meters from him. "I won't die from you, you ugly mother fuckers!" - He yelled and aimed.
