TJ grinned in response to the Toast, he then reached into his chest pocket and unfolded a peice of paper, he looked at it and grinned once more before continuing to eat.

William finished eating and began to stretch. "That was good," said William. "Well I am hitting the sack now, later everyone." Willliam leave. "You know what that sounds like a great idea," said Luma. Luma gets up and waves to everyone and quickly runs up to William. Peter and Micheal look at each other. "I still wonder about those two. You think they have done it yet," said Peter while he was looking towards Micheal. Micheal looks towards peter and says, "I think the done it already but not told any about it." Micheal then grabs his beer and takes a drink. "Oh well it is not my concern, they can do it whenever they feel like it."

TJ pushed his food tray away as he stood, he slung his leather pilots jacket over his arm as he slowly paced out of the Cafe. He was tired, weak and depressed and at this point he just wanted to go home. Earth was home for him, not some Republic Space Cruiser. He missed his Family, his life back on Earth at home and especially his dog. As he walked down the corridors of the SHip to his Bunk Room he gazed out the window upon the stars. He often thought about his past and wondered about his loved ones. He turned to the room to his Bunk and sighed as the automatic door slid open, he stepped into the room. "On lights". He said as the small room lit dimly and he stepped infront of his mirror tossing his jacket on the bed and taking off his shirt. He looked up into the mirror.
The grass was green on a mid summers day, people mowing there lawns, the streets filled with the laughter of childern. A nice little Sub-burb, nothing ever happen here. And TJ sat in his backyard in a lawn chair reading the paper, as his young boy played with his dog Mudkiss. He sighed as the smell of food flooded his nose, he quickly began to laugh as his dog jumped on his lap licking his face. He smiled as he looked at his Son who was running towards him.
TJ frowned as he gazed into the mirror and his memories faded away and he came back into contact with Reality. He sighed as he looked at the pictures on his dresser as he sat down on his bed. He soon yawned as he layed down and closed his eyes, and he would soon let himself enter his world of dreams.

Peter and Micheal get up from there sits and pushed their trays away. They looked at each other nodded their heads. They pushed the chairs in and left the cafeteria. They walked down the hallway and saw nobody around. All was silent until Peter blurted out.
"It's too god dam quiet." "Keep it done bro, you will wake every up and if you do that, there will be some ruckus." "Bring it on, I feel like I can take an army on." "Well just settle down, remember you can have fun with our next mission." "Very True."
Peter and Micheal stopped in front of there rooms and looked at each other. They did a predator handshake and went into the rooms to go to sleep.

The intercom in the morning woke TJ from his deep sleep, he slowly opened his eyes being blinded by the light which shined in through the crack of his door. He sat up and yawned as he stretched, he opened his dresser and slipped into uniform with light groans, his eyes were heavy. today was the big day, the day that the team would descend to the near by Planet to investigate the LV-246. TJ was hardly excited, he stepped out of his room and listened to the announcements, he looked to his left and right as he notices the other soldiers who also stood outside there doors in full costume in a symmetrical line all down the corridor. It was like any other morning, however the day was soon to change.

Micheal and Peter were in the training room getting ready for the mission. William and Luma were in the docking area working on the dreadnoughts.
"So William, how does his vehicle work?" asked Luma. "It's really quite simple, here are the controls for the moving the dreadnoughts." "Ok, where are the gun controls?" "There is the flamethrower, the missile launcher, heavy duty mini-gun cannon, and the hands to crush people and destroy things are this buttons." 'Ok, I'm beginning to understand how to control this vehicle. You mind if I pilot it for this mission?" "Sure I will be the Co-pilot for this vehicle."
Peter and Micheal finished training and walked down the hallway, They saw Wolfe and waved at him.

TJ turned in the line and began to walk with the others, he continued to look forward and walked to the hangar. He opened the door and entered the Hangar seeing his and William's Team preparing for the Mission, He groaned as he aproached his locker and collected his equipment carefully suting up. He then whistled and called everyone in for a briefing. "All right, Lady and Gentleman. You are the Top Soldiers, that is why you have been choosen for this Operation. Remember, bring all that you need because one we get there, there is no coming back until our Objectives are complete. Also remember, no heavy ammunition aloud. The Flamers and Napams are an acception, longs if you don't get to Trigger Happy with them". He said as he pointed at a Smrt Board Screen. "We have word that there is an Unknown Race present in the LV and we have been asked to be diplomatic about solving the problem". TJ said as he looked over the crowd. "Were Soldiers, not fucking Politicians". Clarence blurted out. "That is true, however base wants to know weather this new Race is Hostile or Friendly. Now with that said, everyone aboard the Space Pods and prepare for imediate Evac to the LV". TJ Stated as he walked towards the X-Wing which remained near the Hangar's Blast Doors.

"Luma, get the drop ship ready for pick up," said William. "Sure thing,"Luma said as she went to a drop ship and opened the cargo door. William got into the Dreadnoughts one at a time and brought them into the drop ship. Peter and Micheal came into the hanger and brought some guns and weaponry into the drop ship. "Remember, no heavy weaponry use inside the building, only light ammunition," William said as he got out of the Dreadnought. "Copy that sir, just going to bring some heavy ammo for when we are outside the building," Micheal said as he placed a box down. "Sadly, no explosives for me," Peter said as he placed a box down. "Don't worry, after this mission you can go anywhere you like," said William.

The ships had immediate departure for the LV 246 and sooner then the group had hoped they would arrive upon the nested nuclear facility. As the ships landed, several troops began to exit the Transport Ships, armed with light weaponry the groups carefully aproached the entrance. "Sir, we've found what appears to be smaples of shedded skin". Crocker mentioned to TJ. "Any idea what it's from". TJ asked as he examined the skin himself. "It looks like something that might have come off a snake, sir". Crocker responded as he placed a smaple of the skin in a vial. The group carefully aproached the entrance doors, when TJ issued a command to huddle. "Dreadnoughts, remain by this door, if anything comes out, try a democratic aproach before unloading ammunition into them. If were not back in ETE (Estimated Time of Exit) 2 Hours, send back up in. If Support Team does'nt check in and/or confirm our status, rig the LV to blow. After that you know what to do, I don't care who's trapped in at the point, when you get the command to blow it. Do so, if you don't, it's your ass and career when we RTB (Return to Base)". TJ briefed the group as the doors to the LV slowly opened and the small mixed group of TJ's Team and Williams Team stepped into the shadowy blackness of what they thought to be the lifeless facility.

William looked around the LV. "Strange, I don't see anything alive here," William said as he kept his pistol and blade at the ready. Peter and Micheal looked round and saw nothing in sight. "I am turning on a scanner to see if I can sense motion," said Peter as he clicked a button on his suit. "I recommend you do the say sir," Micheal said as he clicked a button on his suit. "Copy, that turning it on," said William as he clicked a button on his suit. Luma did the same.
"This is Dreadnought 1 reporting, there is slight movement in sight, can't get a full visual on it," said Dreadnought 1 through a comlink. "Dreadnought 2 I see it, it some kind of weird creature, nothing on data of this kind of creature," Dreadnought 2 said through the comlink. "I am going to try to be dimplomatic with it. We are here in peace..." The creature screeched at Dreadnought 2 as soon as he spoke at it and leaped at him. Dreadnought 2 grabbed it in the air and crushed it in his hand and through it on the ground. "This creatures are hostile, I repeat they are hostile," said Dreadnought 2.

With the Blast Doors to the LV shut the inside teams could'nt hear there comrades outside. The Radio gave off annoying buzzing sounds and the Dreadnoughts Commands could'nt be heard. "What the hell is wrong with this peice of plastic crap". Bronson asked as he shook the radio, he fiddiled with the nobs to try and tune it to the right freqeuncy but nothing seemed to work. "Guess will have to proceed an assume that everything is Okay on the outside, Dofsco Brothers secure that Elevator Lift, William cover the Area with Reed, Paulio get to that control room up there and get some power on. Luou partner with me, were going to ensure a safe path for the APC. Alright people lets move it". TJ commanded as everyone began to move, Luma and him began to run to the APC.
TJ gripped the steel door on the vehicle and heave dit open for Luma. "You drive, I'll take turrent". He mentioned as he climed inside with her and pulled the door shut. Paul carefully plugged his patch-cord in the door, he then grabbed a hand-held console and began to re-program the door. He then made his way up the fire escape like stairs to the air tight control room, where he began to hack the computers. He carefully glanced to the air duct, he squinted at it thinking he saw something. Soon he quickly blew it off his shoulder. He continued to work his magic and soon the lights to the place came on.

"The lights are on, thats a good thing, I didn't want to work in the dark," Peter said as he plugged his patch-cord into the elevator door and reprogrammed the door. "TJ, if you can here me , we have the elevator secure and ready to use," Micheal said into the radio. "Peter you hear something." Peter looks towards Micheal and said," Yeah I did, sounds like footsteps," Peter said as he looked down the hallway where the lights were not working. "Who's there," Micheal said as he and peter aimed there guns down the and turned there flashlights on.

As the Dofsco brothers switch on their lights, the beam traveled along the metal corridor revealing three marines. They were dressed differently from Wolfe and his unit. The three troops were wearing green woodland camouflage and the odd metal plate attached as amour. All three were wearing helmets with a codec and transceiver running through to a battery on their hip. It was how they were able to communicate and be monitored back at base.
One of them was Drake. He was aiming a large motion tracking weapon called a Smart-gun. It used motion senors to detect movement and lock onto its targets. It was modified from a German MG-42 machine gun and was maneuvered with steadicam harnesses created using old motorcycle parts. It was currently locked on to the Dofsco brothers and ready to fire. A small squared box lowered by Drake's eye and he scanned the Dofsco brothers. No information was revealed and Drake tapped Hudson who held a Pulse Riffle.
Hudson locked and loaded his Pulse Riffle which was a modified Thompson SMG, with an attached fore-end of a Franchi SPAS-12 shotgun and a Remington 12 Gauge Model 870P receiver with barrel. On Hudson's amour, a white skull was painted. He tapped it for luck as he aimed his Riffle.
Corporal Hicks lifted his hand to signal Drake and Hudson to watch his back has he walked towads the Dofsco brothers with his weapon aimed and eyes peering. "Shut your lights off!" Hicks called as he was a foot away from them. "It attracts them..."

"What the hell is that". Paulio said as he coruched infront of the elevator and picked up the snake like skin. "Sir I think I found something, it looks like snake skin, like something shedded". Paulio said as he looked out the window down at the Dofsco Brothers, he then glanced at the elevator doors which opened, his eyes went wide when he saw other unknown Marines running towards them. "Sir, we might possibly have company". Paulio said ending his conversation. Wolfe responded by driving the APC up next to the Dofsco Brothers and the unknown Soldier, he wound down the window and looked at them. "What seem's to be the problem Officer". TJ asked as he looked out of the window at him. Reed crept up next to the APC in a crouched position. "This place is fucking wierd". Reed mentioned aiming his Sniper all about. "Yo Paulio, get your ass down here". Bronson called up to the control room.

Hicks signaled Drake and Hudson to move forward. The advanced forward keeping their weapons aimed. "Xenomorphs" Hicks announced gripping his Pulse Riffle. "What are they?" Peter asked. "Are you fuckin' kidding me?" Hudson responded. "They're Parasitic Creatures. Bleed acid and incubate hosts in order to survive and reproduce." Drake added. Michael looked at the three soldiers and with his Russian accent asked. "You are you with?" "We're the Starship Troopers. I'm Hicks, loud mouth is Hudson and the tough man is Drake." Hicks explained. "We're a division within the Starship Troopers. We exterminate alien creatures, especially ones like the Xenomorphs who inhabit LV's."
Hicks looked at the the skin. "Stage Five" he said. "Drones! Lock and load, we got some hunting to do..." Hicks glances at the others. "I don't know why you're all here, but if you want to live, be careful. Xenomporphs are not to be taken lightly."

Wolfe looked at him as he kept his rifle clenched in his hands. "Were here to search for Survivours, we were told that the LV had been assaulted". Wolfe mentioned as he walked with the small group of new Soldiers and the APC followed behind. "Were trying to get to the lower levels, were hoping to use the Cargo Elevator to get the APC further down into the Catacombs, were mainly meant to investigate". Wolfe added as he kept his eyes opened and his gun aimed about.

Hicks placed his Pulse Riffle on his back and pulled out a PDA. He showed Wolfe the LV's Data Files and Blue-Print Symatics. He pointed to a long observatory path used to ship cargo. "You won't be getting your APC to the Catacombs." Hicks told. "Why?" Wolfe questioned looking at the PDA. "This long tunnel here" Hicks said referring to where he was pointing on the small LED screen, "it is a cargo bay used to ship materials to each section of the colony. However, each Blast Door must be sealed before opening the next... A solider will have to alternate between consoles on foot while the APC drives through each section." Hicks ran his finger down the screen. "Here at Bay One we can open the first section from the outside and drive the APC in... From their two of your soldiers shall walk along the halls and open and close each Blast Door as the APC passes.
Hudson looked at the other soldiers. "Shit" he called. "One of these guys... They know nothing about these LV's." "You'll be going in Hudson with whatever men Wolfe sends in." Reading the name tag on his gear. "Fuck-yea!"
"There should be twelve-inch double bullet proof glass in sections of the Bays. We can use these to monitor each other." Hicks continued. "Damn" Drake interrupted, "If something happens on one side of the Bay, we won't be able to reach the others." "It's risky Drake, but it is the only way to get an APC to the catacombs..." Hicks looked at his PDA and examined the understructure behind the Catacombs. "Thats no even the worst part. I've got bad news?"
"What is it now?" Wolfe asked. "The APC can reach as fair as the catacombs if we take this route. However..." "However..." Wolfe repeated. "The understructure to to the catacombs is built over the Cooling-System..." Hicks hesitated for a moment thinking. "So" "Wolfe, It means we won't be able to use much force down there. The air will be damp and built with gas... Heavy duty weapons and high class ammunition could ignite the palce... My guess is the Hive will be down there."
"Hive" Peter creaked. "Yeah the fucking nest, the resting place of the Xenomorphs." Hudson cursed. "They enjoy cool, cold, and damp places." Peter shivered. Hudson continued. "Its where they incubate hoists, cocoon them and eat them..." Peter shivered again. "Enough Hudson" Hicks called as he placed his PDA on his belt. "Well Wolfe, the Starship Troopers will help you before we regroup with Team Domination, what do you say?"

"You guys seem to know what your doing, so the help is glady accepted". TJ ackonwledged as he looked at the small platton beforre him. "All right here's what I want, William, your Team and mine will stay with the APC while you, these guys and I scout ahead and open the doors so the APC can get through, were not going to be able to get it down to the Nestry of the LV, however the APC should keep you safe for the mean time if you remain inside". TJ issued as he looked at Hicks and Hudson who began to take point.

Hicks lead the group to a large blast door on the left side of the LV. The APC pulled up on the other side of the glass shield and waited behind the blast in front of the blast door. "Hudson, run a by-pass!" Hicks ordered. "Yes sir" Hudson let his Pulse Riffle hang from his shoulder by it's strap as he pulled a small squared computer from his belt. He plugged the H-Comps long plug into the computer system. He tabbed several keys on the H-Comps surface pad. Drake held his Smart-gun and looked out the glass shield at the APC. "As long they stay inside the APC they're safe., but we ain't." Drake said. "The long narrow halls of these corridors are dangerous if a fire fight was to occur."
Hudson finished with the computer and the blast door opened. The APC drove through and the others moved to the next section. Hudson closed the blast door and worked on the next one. The long corridors formed in a 'L' shape and led to the final door to the hive. Near the last blast door was another door leading to the cargo bays where the APC was. Each Cargo Bay was large and many doors led to different sections of the LV. Hudson finished with the door again and everyone moved to the next section. After ten doors the group was half way through the corridors. "We got ten more doors to go through." Hudson said as he worked on the door. "So far so good" Hicks called.

The Group managed to move along fairly smoothly with the doors until they reached one covered with the cacoon sludge of the Xenomorphs. Reed looked at the door and with great irratation said. "Oh what the fuck intarntion are we supposed to do now". He asked as he looked at Wolfe who looked around at the place before aproaching Hicks. "What now, were stuck, maybe we should-". T said being cut off from hearing the scattering and screeching of the Aliens. Bronson and Paul gazed around with there rifles. "Man your positions, here these ugly bugs come now". Bronson called out as he pointed his weapon at the open air duct thathad been bent and destroyed beyond repair.

Many Xenomorphs pounded through the corridor's air ducts clawing their way through the metal grates with their razor-sharp claws. One air duct vent broke open and Xenomorphs crawled from out. Reed fired his riffle at one hitting it. The shot caused it to bleed its green acidic blood. The blood dripped below on the platform and after a few seconds burned a hole through the metal. "What the fuck" Reed called. Hicks lifted his Pulse Riffle and fired in a circular motion. "Be careful" he instructed. "They bleed acid... Don't shoot them when up close." The others fired as Hudson worked on the by-pass. "Hurry Hudson" Hicks called. "Working on it" he replied as he tapped buttons in the LV electric system. The soldiers in the APC could see the battle in the small confined area. They could help though. They watched the Xenomorphs pour in and waited for the doors open. "Got it" Hudson called. The small corridor door opened and the soldiers ran into one by one back wards shooting the Xenomorphs. When everyone got it, Hudson slapped a lever shutting the doors. The Xenomorphs pounded the door and the soldiers aimed their weapons. The Xenomorphs couldn't get through. Hudson activated the control panel to open the blast door. The Xenomorphs turned their attention to the blast doors as they opened and examined as the APC began to drive forward under the opening door.
The Xenomorphs screeched and climbed back into the ducts and followed APC to the next section. "What the fuck are they doing?" Drake question from inside the APC. The APC drove into the next section and the blast door closed. Suddenly, a vent collapsed from in front of the section the APC was in. The Xenomorphs than charged at the battle tank.

Wolfe and the others watched as the Battle Tank was brutally assaulted by the creatures. "They should remain okay as long as they stay inside the APC, if they come out then there mince meat". Crocker added as the group watched the event. "What should we do" Bronson asked aloud as he stood and awaited a response.

Hudson finished the bypass on the door and it opened. "Move to the next area!" he called. He sealed the door and worked on the last door. The APC moved forward slowly under the cargo door. The Xenomorphs attacked the tank violently trying to get in. "Stay inside" Drake ordered. "They can't get us..." he others in the tank nodded their heads and readied their weapons.
Hudson plugged the H-Comp into the terminal. "This is the last door... When this is opened we can group with the tank to get in the catacombs." Hudson hurried as he hacked the door. He got it and the solider charged from the small corridor to a large area filled with black sludge and hive like organs. The final bay door opened and the APC drove into the catacombs. It was the end of the road for the tank as it was too large to move further into the catacombs. The Xeomorphs turned their attention to the soldiers exiting the corridors and ran ran towards them.

"This is going to seem crazy, advance forward in the Catacombs, we have to run, if we pick a fire-fight in such a tight space, the whole structure will come down on us". TJ anounced as the group moved forward. "The troops in the APC have to figure there own way down, we will lure them away from the APC, lets move". He shouted.

The Troops outside the APC ran into the catacombs shouting. The attention of the Xenomorphs changed from the APC to the troops. The parasites screeched and crawled along the walls and followed the troops into the catacombs. “They’re coming” Hicks called. “Move!” The troops ran further into the catacombs. The black sludge and tar walls got smaller as they troops advanced. They stopped and looked back. There was nothing, not even a sound. “Where the hell are they?” Hudson questioned.

"Shoulder Lamps, FLashlights on". TJ commanded quickly as he gazed his rifle around, paying very close attention to the enviorment around him. "Even with lights, it's still too dark". Reed mentioned as he remained low and stationary.

The Xenomorphs hissed and growled and their evil crys of torture created fear in the soldiers. Their lights only slightly illuminated the area. Inside the deep Catacombs of the Hive it was dark and cool. The soldiers where not only trembling from the cold but from fear as well. "Where the hell are they?" Hudson repeated gripping his Pulse Riffle tightly. The hissing echoed through the Hive and the direction of sound became unapparent.
"Stay claim" Hicks instructed. "Stay claim" Peter Dofsco panicked. "Your crazy." "Stay together... Wolfe where are you?" Hicks manged to reach Wolfe in the dimly lit cramped area. "We'll use our Magnesium Flares... Don't look directly at the flare, it'll blind you."
Hicks and Hudson tossed some of their flare further down into the Hive. The area lit up well and the entire Hive could be seen. However, directly infront of the group were several eggs beginning to hatch. They looked the other way and the Xenomorphs appeared pushing the soldiers closer to the eggs. "Shit" Hudson panicked. "Trapped."
