Welcome to chapter 4
In this chapter, the action steps up a notch and the hunt begins.
Now, onto some Reviews!
Mariah: Yes this chapter has the Predators, also I have replaced Chopper with my female Oc predator and don't worry Celtic will survive in this story.
PappyOldGuy: Thank you so much! I'm glad you like how I'm meshing the realities together, your words are a big help and have made my day along with the 'if a frog had wings, his ass wouldn't bump the ground nearly so often' hahaha! That tickled me something fierce! And don't worry I'm taking my time with it, thank you again for kind words or, uh, typed words in this case. :)
Aeroza: Yes it would be funny if an alien ended up as Kacela's familiar but I have another familiar in mind for Kacela later on in the story and yes Fem-Harry is going to be paired with a female yautja, also the predators will survive!
I do NOT own AVP or Harry Potter, I only own my OCs and story ideas.
Off we go!
Chapter 4: Oh, look an alien!
THE PYRAMID
It was quiet for a moment as everyone waited watching the walls around them, Kacela stood close to her sister. Zarola was tense to the point that her second pair of arms felt like coiled springs ready to snap.
Then suddenly screaming filled the air from the sacrificial chamber above the room they were in, Kacela and Zarola quickly moved to Lex's side as Lex pulled her radio out.
"Rousseau!" Lex yelled into the radio as Sebastian and Maxwell tried their own radios to contact the other team.
Lex then turned to Weyland asking "Is there anything you didn't tell me about this place?"
Weyland shook his head looking baffled and shocked saying "Nothing, your guess is as good as mine,"
"Well, whatever it is we're not prepared for it," Lex said before moving forward her daughters close behind.
"We're gonna round up the rest of the team and get to the surface, let's move!" Lex ordered as the sound of things dropping made Lex turn around.
This, in turn, made the girls turn around only to see Maxwell and his men now had guns, looking down Kacela saw the grey cases that they had carried were on the ground.
"What are you doing?" Lex asked slightly confused.
"My job, yours is over," Maxwell stated while checking his ammo making the girls stare at him in disbelief.
"My job is over when everyone is back on the boat safely and that gun doesn't change anything," Lex said in a stern tone giving Maxwell a small stare down before walking away.
Lex then lead everyone over to the new passageway where the stairs had been, Lex paused to check her watch.
"This bearing should take us back to the entrance, we'll regroup at the whaling station," Lex said lowering her arm and shining her light down the passageway.
"What about Thomas? Rousseau?" Sebastian asked concerned for his friend and the team.
"We'll find them on the way up," Lex said as she motioned for her daughters to follow her.
"Hey sis? You get the feeling this is going from the frying pan," Zarola started to ask only to be cut off as Kacela looked at her.
"And into the fire? Yeah, only this fire is in an enclosed space," Kacela said as she eyed the walls.
The sisters stuck close between Lex and two of Weyland's men who kept them in view, most likely to cover them in case of an attack. Kacela kept her breathing steady as they entered another hallway after a few minutes of walking, looking up Zarola saw more of the strange statues.
Lex paused to shine her light on one of the statues, this revealed the same device that the group was currently carrying.
"Recognise what's on their shoulders?" Lex asked making Miller nod.
"Yeah," He said before looking at the walls as Sebastian went over to look at some symbols.
"We worshipped these things?" Maxwell asked from his position.
"According to this, we did, the artifacts you removed from the sarcophagus seem to be their weapons," Sebastian said making Zarola smirk.
"So they are guns," She said elbowing Kacela who smirks.
"Sci-fi for the win," Kacela said as they shared a quick high-five making Miller chuckle beside them.
"Let's keep moving, only another 200 yards to the entrance," Lex said as Kacela and Zarola picked up the pace and moved to walk slightly behind their mother.
Kacela then got the feeling she was being watched which made the hairs on the back of her neck stand up instantly, tensing up she glanced around but before she could pinpoint the feeling the sound of something hitting the floor made the group jump and turn around.
Kacela quickly saw that one of Maxwell's men was gone! Where did he go?
"Take cover!" Maxwell ordered making Lex grab Kacela and Zarola and pull them to the side.
"Where's Stone?" Maxwell asked as his men looked around.
Zarola who was looking around spotted something next to one of the statues, it was huge! Bigger than a normal man, it had a mask on. It also looked like she wasn't the only one to spot the being as one of Maxwell's men spotted it, right as Zarola saw the spear in the beings grip.
"Look out!" Zarola yelled but it came too late as the being threw the spear it held impaling the man as he fired his gun.
Everyone opened fire at the spot where the spear came from making dust and rocks fly, the group ducked or tried to cover their faces. Kacela though moved and slipped past her mother to the now dead man, giving him a silent prayer she reached up and took the spear out of his gut. She jumped when it collapsed in her grip into a tube or cylinder like state, she then ducked in time making a large piece of stone fly over her head.
"This is crazy!" Kacela said moving back to her sister's side with her new object.
Before Zarola could respond to her statement the pyramid started shifting again.
"The pyramid is shifting again!" Sebastian said looking around as a noise made everyone look up.
Only to see the same being jump across the gap above while turning invisible, Kacela thought that was terrifying but awesome! She was shaken from her thoughts as Zarola grabbed and dragged her along.
Yelling was heard as the pyramid shifted, Lex looked over to see her daughters heading towards a closing door. She quickly ordered everyone to follow them, at the room the girls had escaped into they looked around before looking at the closing door.
"They won't make it!" Zarola yelled in worry her heart hammering away.
Kacela pants before looking at the spear/object thing, thinking fast she hit a button she could feel on the middle and extended the spear before shoving it between the floor and closing door. The stone and metal groan as Kacela held it in place, she looked up as the rest of the group ran through before she was forced to pull back.
She yells falling to the group with the spear still in hand as the door slammed shut, she pants in a daze from the impact before blinking. Shaking her head she slowly sat up looking around as Zarola helped her up, Lex quickly came over to check on them.
She then noticed the spear Kacela now held.
"What's this?" Lex asked as Kacela held up the spear.
"The thing threw it, I grabbed it thinking it would be useful," Kacela said looking it over making Lex sigh.
Trust Kacela to grab a weapon in the middle of chaotic situation, then again, Kacela was a demigod daughter of the goddess of destruction so her love of weapons had to come from somewhere.
"Just be careful with it," Lex said making Kacela nod as Zarola pouts.
"I want a spear," She said before smirking as Kacela gave her a playful shove.
Lex chuckles before leading them over to Sebastian, he looked over at them while fiddling with a bottle cap around his neck. He went to speak but paused at seeing the spear Kacela held, he looked confused making Zarola chuckle at his expression.
A beeping them got their attention, Sebastian lifted his arm to look at his watch which read from Zarola's angle '10:00'.
"What's that?" Zarola asked making Sebastian look away from his watch.
"Just a theory, the Aztec calendar was metric, based on multiples of ten," Sebastian said before looking around at the pyramid walls.
"I'm guessing the pyramid reconfigures every ten minutes," Sebastian said and right after he said that a low rumble was heard as a part of the wall opened up.
"All right! Your awesome Uncle Sebastian!" Kacela said giving Sebastian a quick hug while being mindful of her new weapon, she pulled away leaving a stunned Sebastian.
"Welcome to the family," Lex said with a smirk as Sebastian looked at her for a moment before chuckling.
The group moved through the tight passage taking it at a cautious pace, Zarola stuck close to her sister while watching her back. It wasn't long until they entered a larger hallway that leads to a bigger room which set the sisters on edge, Kacela felt the feeling of being watched again this time twice as strong.
"You okay?" Zarola asked making Kacela glance at her.
"Yeah, just tense," Kacela said while twirling the spear in her grip.
A clattering noise made them jump and turn only to see Weyland leaning on a stone pillar coughing, he didn't look too good with pale skin and his chesty coughing Kacela also saw the alien gun on the ground.
"Weyland," Lex said going over to him. "You okay?" Lex asked as Weyland took deep breaths.
"Yeah, I'm fine," He said before bending down and picking up the alien gun.
"Leave it, it can only slow us down," Lex said making Weyland shake his head.
"Too much has been lost to leave here with nothing," Weyland said as Lex stares at him for a moment before deciding something.
"Give it to me," Lex said turning so her backpack faced Weyland making him place the alien gun inside it.
Not long after Weyland did this Kacela saw something from the corner of her eyes making her look over only to go wide-eyed.
"Look out! Contact!" Kacela yelled as a huge being fired a net at Maxwell.
The net hit and pinned him to a tone table as he fired his gun, the being ran off as the group ran to Maxwell.
Maxwell struggled in the net as it squeezed and contracted around him, Weyland tried to pull the net off only to pull back with a yell and his gloves cut up. Sebastian tried to cut the net with a knife only for the blade to get sliced in two! Kacela was about to use her spear when Maxwell saw something behind them.
"Look out!" He yelled making everyone turn to see the huge alien marching towards them.
Lex took out her ice pick and went to hit the alien only to be hit aside, Weyland was then hit aside as the girls quickly jumped out of the way. Zarola went to Weyland's side to pull him out of danger, Kacela who hand landed near a pillar watched as Sebastian landed a punch on the alien thing but it did nothing! He was then grabbed by the neck and lifted up she watched in both awe and slight horror as the huge being pulled out a spear and stabbed Maxwell killing him.
Lex who saw this looked around when she saw her pickaxe, moving she managed to grab it when footsteps made her look up to see an outline come at her and kick her into a pillar. Wincing from the blow she managed to push herself up to look at her attacker, she only saw a faint outline and tensed up when she heard the sound of a blade being drawn.
She then saw something behind her attacker, a long black bladed tail. It lined up and went to stab her attacker who now that Lex looked at closely had a faint curved outline if she looked hard enough.
Before Lex could make a single sound something crashed into her attack right as the black thing struck, the tail missed by inches but was stained with green blood.
"Zarola!" Kacela's yell made Lex look around only to see Kacela get off her now visible attacker.
"Mom! Help Weyland!" Zarola yelled running over to her sister snapping Lex out of her shocked state.
"I'm on it!" She yelled getting up as a thought hit her, one that she hoped she would not regret it in the future.
"Go all out!" Lex yelled as she ran over to Weyland making her daughters smirk in a deadly way.
"Let's do it!" Zarola said as she skidded to a stop near Kacela position as she sat up from tackling the giant being.
At first, she was gonna stab the being for attacking her mother but then she saw the black serpent going for a surprise attack, while she was mad for the being attacking her mother at least the invisible one was giving her mother a chance to strike back or avoid the attack. So, she just reacted and tackled the being away from an untimely death.
"That hurt," Kacela said as she got off the being she tackled, she was gonna be sore later from that little stunt!
She then did a double take when she noticed that A. This being was female and B. That she was huge! Bogger than the male holding Sebastian! Or was holding Sebastian since the big guy was now fighting a black serpent thing with Zarola distracting a second one with her twin blades dawn.
"What the?" Kacela questioned getting off the female whole holding down a small blush after noticing she had been straddling the female.
"Kacela! A little help!" Zarola yelled snapping Kacela out of her thoughts.
"Coming!" Kacela yelled as she spares a glace to the dazed female before taking out hear spear and running over to help.
Meanwhile with the beings that are known as the Yautja, or predators in human tongue, Celtic was wrestling with a hard meat while his cousin L'Ditha got up from the ground. She growls getting to her feet while wondering what in the name of Paya just hit her! Shaking her head she heard yelling making her look over to see Celtic fighting a hard meat and a pair of Oomans youngbloods fighting one!?
By the looks of it, the two Oomans youngbloods seemed to be holding their own, one had a pair of blades while the other had her hunt brother's Ki'cti-pa(spears). She was wondering where the slightly smaller Ooman had gotten those blades from when her cousin's roar made her look over to see another hard meat attacking him, roaring she ran over and tackled the hard meat away letting her cousin fight back against his opponent as she began her battle to claim her right to be blooded.
BACK WITH THE DEMIGOD SISTERS
Kacela ducked a claw strike as Zarola landed a stab on the serpent's side making it screech in pain and knock Zarola away with its tail. Kacela growls as she backflips and looked down at her now ripped coat, she quickly rips it off letting her second pair of arms frees though she did take the dagger out of her coat pocket and undid the charm on it making it return to full size.
Smirking she tensed up as the serpent lunged at her, she quickly stabbed the spear in the ground and used it to spin and kick the black beast away from her and into a pillar. Landed she pulled the spear out of the ground as Zarola jumped on the creatures back, she watched as her sister stayed on its back using her now freed second limbs to hold on.
"Die you ugly bug!" Zarola yelled as she brought down her twin blades slicing the beasts head off.
Zarola yelps as she landed on the ground with the beast's body below her, she pants getting off the beast and quickly checked her blades over. The blades were a gift from her goddess mother and thankfully the acid blood of the beast just made the metal hiss before it was repelled off.
'Seriously! What creature has acid for blood?' Zarola thought before looking at the head of the beast.
"Nice kill," Kacela said before jumping as a pair of roars were heard.
"Thanks," Zarola said looking at the other of the room where two figures stood above the slain body of two black serpent beasts.
Kacela glanced around the room taking note that their mother, Sebastian, and Weyland were gone. This made her sigh in relief, as long as her mother was safe she was happy. She looked over to Zarola as she picked up the head of her kill with her second left hand, she grins look it over when heavy footsteps kade them tense and turn to the owners of them.
They stopped in front of the girls letting them look them over, Kacela was quick to notice the height difference. The male stood at a height of 7'5" and had a muscular build, his skin was dark green which faded into a greenish brown color. His helmet had a strange symbol now burnt into it along with the females helmet and his mask had four scratch marks across it, he was also lacking armor on his right shoulder and chest.
The female looked a little ruffed up but otherwise was fine, her build was muscular but slightly leaned compared to the male. Her height was a tall 8'4" and thanks to the now calm situation Kacela saw that she has dark brown skin that faded to light brown tones across her body she also had a firm D-sized chest from what she could guess since she had grey armor across her chest, shoulders, lower arms, legs from the knees down and boots.
Her hips had a skirt like loincloth thing with some hip armor like the male-only hers was more knee length and skirt like in design, both had a sort of fishnet under their armor. Needless to say, Kacela was impressed with what she saw, though she had to wrestle with herself to stop her eyes from going to the large females chest since it was so distracting plus it was rude to stare.
Zarola who took note of this held back a chuckle, she knew her sister leaned that way towards females. She had teasing material now! As if sensing her thoughts Kacela sent her a small glare making her chuckle.
Zarola then looked back at the two obvious aliens in front of her and couldn't help but wonder something.
'What happens now?' Zarola thought as she stared at them.
She really hoped these two weren't stab happy as their actions portrayed them to be, otherwise, they could kiss their butts goodbye!
Done! Sorry if it's not that good, I still struggle with fight scenes.
Also, this chapter was a lot harder to do than I thought it would be. Also, I've changed my mind about what is going to happen to Lex during the final smackdown with the Xeno Queen. ;)
And sorry if my description of the yautja aren't that good I'm having a hard time describing the armor and clothing they wear, it's also harder when you don't know how a female yautja wears her armor compared to a male yautja!
Anyway, rant aside, in the next chapter, Kacela and Zarola make some new friends!
Until then, SaberbladePrime signing out!
