"Is someone there?"
Samantha peered into the darkness, trying to discover the source of the loud thump. Maybe it was Kyrum; he was big enough to make that loud of a noise. Yes, she decided, it was Kyrum.
"Kyrum? Is that you?"
She felt all the tension leave her body. Samantha wondered why.
A rapid clicking reached Samantha's ear, and she concluded that this definitely was Kyrum. It sounded like it was coming from the bathroom. She opened the door, expecting to see the muscular, hulking alien standing before her. But all that she observed was an open window.
"Where are you? Why aren't you showing yourself?" she asked, only to be met with silence.
A crash from the kitchen. Samantha whipped around. Various knives had fallen to the floor, strewn about by an unseen force. Her brow furrowed. Why wasn't Kyrum showing himself?
More clicking. A flash of yellow eyes. Then silence.
Samantha's instincts told her that something was horribly wrong.
"...Kyrum?"
--SLAM--
Samantha found herself pinned against the wall by her neck, struggling to breathe. A deep, but seemingly higher voice assaulted her ears.
"So...you've met my mate, little ooman?"
The figure turned and threw Samantha to the wall, where her vision cleared and she saw the form of her attacker.
It looked like Kyrum, the sleek silver armor and jet-black visor on the mask, and the shoulder cannon on it's left shoulder. However, the hunter seemed to have breasts, and her dreadlocks were long and tied in a braid behind her back. She had all the right curves in all the right places, and seemed to radiate an aura of strength and command.
Samantha struggled to speak. "M...mate?"
"Yes, dear. Mate. Or are your kind too stupid to know what that means?" replied the female. A sudden flash of anger flared through Samantha. Her fists clenched.
The alien clicked, and advanced towards Samantha. She grabbed one of the knives on the floor and held it up between her and the Predator. It stopped, and laughed coldly.
"I see I have a rebel. Maybe I'll consider keeping your skull and give it to Kyrum as a gift," the hunter said mockingly.
And before Samantha could react, her opponent lunged. But before the alien could reach her, it was intercepted by another shadow from the side and was smashed against the wall. Both forms roared in anger as they thrashed about on the floor.
Kyrum had arrived, and appeared to be angrier than Samantha had ever seen him.
