Last Report of Corporal Dwayne Hicks, USCM:
I have not much time left and will
therefore give a brief summary of my mission:
Ellen Ripley had been in stasis
in a shuttle for 57 years. She was rescued and debriefed by her employers at
the Weyland-Yutani Corporation; they were skeptical of her claims that an alien creature killed her
entire crew and forced her to destroy her ship the Nostromo, and they
subsequently revoked her flight officer license.
The exomoon
LV-426 (also called “Acheron”), where the Nostromo initially encountered the
derelict ship containing alien eggs, is now home to the terraforming
colony Hadleys Hope. When contact was lost with the colony, Weyland-Yutani
representative Carter Burke and my CO Colonial Marine Lieutenant Gorman asked
Ripley to accompany Burke and our Colonial Marine unit to investigate the
disturbance. She joined the expedition on Burke's word that our mission was to
exterminate the creatures.
A dropship delivered us to the surface of
LV-426, where we found the colony deserted. Inside, were makeshift barricades
and signs of a struggle, at the center of the station, we found the colonists
cocooned, serving as incubators for the creatures' offspring. Ripley discovered
that Burke sent the colonists to investigate the derelict spaceship where the
Nostromo crew first encountered the eggs, believing he could become wealthy by
recovering alien specimens for use as biological
weapons. All colonists were dead (but one girl named Rebecca/“Newt”)
and our group of Marines and Burke were wept out by the xenomorphs as well.
Only I and a synthetic person called “Bishop” survived.
Ripley refused to abandon Newt the colonist
girl. We destroyed the eggs and fled to the dropship. All us four escaped
moments before the station exploded with the colony consumed by a nuclear blast
of the power station’s meltdown. I suppose that all alien creatures were
destroyed then.
On the Sulaco, we were ambushed by the
queen, who had been hidden in the dropship's landing gear. The queen tore
Bishop in half and advanced on Newt, but Ripley battled the creature using an exosuit cargo-loader and expelled it through an
airlock
into space. Ripley and Newt, as well as the critically damaged Bishop entered
hypersleep for our return trip to Earth.
When I was to enter hypersleep I noticed a
hull breech alert. I will investigate and wake the others…
…IT’S THE QUEEN!
SHE’S BACK ON BOARD!
SAVE OUR SOULS!
After five hours of mayhem aboard the USS Sulaco we stopped the game at one o'clock in the morning. Zac and Doc could not manage to fight all xenomorphs and neither found Newt, the last colonist. However the aliens had not to expect a victory either, because only half of the marines, but most of the aliens were already killed.
