Interspecies. (Alien Fanfic)

Chapter One

We always had them in our possession, this alien species. We figured it was easy enough, treating this place as though it was a regular animal testing facility. But we overestimated ourselves, the entire Weyland-Yutani company. The interns, the guests, scientists, and even the CEO were in great danger now. I was just hired as a simple research intern, but I had never thought I would be face to face with one of these monsters within the few weeks I was there. The animal we tried to contain and control. The Xenomorph.

It all started when I was hired as an intern under some of the best scientists of the Weyland-Yutani Corporation. This was a highly respected company-- from the outside. It was known for everything, from Research Development to Extrasolar Colonization. Somebody like me was expected to be in the basic area of research development, but I was special... According to Mr. Yutani. The research essay was just a normal one, but it definitely intrigued him. I was placed in the 'Xenomorph procurement and research.' area. A place where even some of the best scientists dreamed off, and I was a dreamer. Only mine came true.

However, I knew I was putting my life in danger. These Aliens weren't just some small cell organisms. No, this was the Xenomorph XX121, or just the 'Xenomorph'. It's a highly aggressive extraterrestrial species, and I was studying them. From what I have learned, they have no higher goals than the creation of their species and elimination of any sort of life form that could threaten their existence. A species that was seven foot tall, at least, with acidic blood and their double jaws. Though we used... questionable means of breeding them, I did not like the our treatment to these species. They were constantly locked in strong metal body restraints, given shock therapy and other... punishment effects. But I was given my very own Xenomorph to study and 'train'.

And study I did, beginning to when the test subject was born. From what I studied, they use a different means of life form to infect a host, mostly human, in which they gestate. They can have other physical appearances, depending on the body type of the host. For mine, it was human, giving it a bipedal stance. I studied everything. From the way they eat, which we feed them prisoners, to their trademark characteristics. But I was instructed to never give mine a name, so I wouldn't grow some attachment from it. I did have a name for him, which we did establish the sex, though rather difficult. But for now, I called him 'Test subject.' And today, I was getting an up close encounter with it. The same room with it, only having restraints. I also had to guards with me, but to which I did not want.

"I am sorry, Ms. Sorenson but we cannot allow you to be alone in a room with a bug."

The way they described these rather beautiful creatures.

"That's a shame, Sanchez. I am allowed to be alone in a room with the Xenomorph,"

Making sure I got my point across, that this thing had a name. "If I have you with me, how can I get it to trust me? It is vital to my research which you are hindering, and I can take that up with your superior."

This was threat, and he knew it. He backed off after that, and I entered the room. It was just him and I, the Alien and the Human. I listened the familiar hiss of the animal, but I continued to step further. Clearly, he believed I was a threat to him and his safety. His inner jaw was restrained, so I sat on the floor directly in front of it, tolerating the snarls and hisses. I kept eye contact with the creature... My creature.

I first collect fluid samples, mostly from the lubricant like substance resting on his body, mainly around the mouth and jaw area. I did a physical of the Xenomorph as well, using a penlight to check if the Alien actually had eyes, and indeed it did. Right under the carapace dome of it.

"Interesting..." Were the words I whispered to myself, taking a deep breath.

"Release restraints on inner jaw." A command to the console as the Alien instantly snapped at me, but it wasn't trying to attack my body, no. It quickly ate up the flesh I had in my hands. "See... you were just hungry, weren't you? No need to threaten me... Six."
