The Friend in a Xenomorph

Chapter 36: Unexpected Surprise.

Owen's POV

I sat down and crossed my arms because everybody wasn't going fast enough. [Owen]"When will Kevin and your friends get here Larson!" Larson looked over at me. He had a bitter look. [Larson]"Look, I did the text and stuff! Just wait." [Plymouth]"Well. Despite my minor character position I'm gonna need to be the one setting this in motion! Dominick! Xylia!" I look over at the two. [Owen]"Well?"

Larson looks over at me confused. [Larson]"What are you doing?" [Owen]"Saving the world? What does it look like?" [Larson]"We're actually doing that.... no sarcasm."

[Xylia]"Should we just bail on them?" [Dominick]"No, Sorry Xylia, Next time maybe." [Owen]"Either way Larson! I'm seeing if Dominick has a plan." [Larson]"Well ok than."

Larson walks away into the neighboring room. [Owen]"Tell me something! I heard you guys talking. So, what was it about? Um excuse me if it wasn't to do with the plan." [Dominick]"Well. Once we get together I can explain the full plan. But it involves sicing them with Facehuggers." I look over at Xylia. She was smiling and nodding. [Owen]"Ok then.... LARSON!!!! HURRY YOUR BUTT UP!" I went over by the door and waited. Roughly 5 minutes later did Larson come back in the room. But with our friends behind him. [Larson]"Jesus Owen, I thought I'd be nice and grab everyone for you but you yell so loud the whole lab heard you!" [Anthony]"I'm the only one shouldn't hear it! If I do, then you're in trouble..... But I'm 'distracted' right now." He looks over at Jenny with narrowed eyes. [Owen]"Who the heck let you in the building!"

Anthony looked towards Owen and put on a shocked face. [Anthony]"Wait a minute, I recognize you from somewhere." [Owen]"Yeah? Your daddy took you on an office visit?!" Anthony Backed off and sat down. [Jerry]"Yikes. Those contraptions you're stuck in look scary guys." Jerry walked into the room directing his speech towards Dominick. They were both clearly happy to see each other. [Jenny]"Can't help but feel happy. Speaking of which, we did bring a surprise!"

[Owen]"Whoa now hold up. We have everyone..... Except Kevin! Where is he? He better be rapping the surprise in a pretty pink bow. Because otherwise..." [Jenny]"Cool your jets Owen, He's on a special mission." I rolled my eyes. "What is the surprise anyway?" Jerry giggled. [Larson]"Trust me, it's cool. Jerry, Mary. Bring out the surprise." The two nod and head into the other room to grab the surprise.

Dominick made a small click as me. [Owen]"What! I don't know what it is, ask Jenny."

Dominick's POV

I saw all my friends. Larson, Jerry, Mary, Jenny. I guess Owen if you count him and his sour attitude. And then there's Anthony.... why was he left in the building? [Dominick]"I'm so happy! Super rad they're all back." [Xylia]"Me too." [Larson]"Alright everyone, step aside, here comes the surprise!" Everyone stepped over to the left and Jerry and Mary came out with someone behind him......

[Dominick]"No way." I say in surprise.

Kevin's POV

I separated myself from the group. Larson said I needed to weaponize this space station. So you bet that's what I'm doing! I knew Anthony Carlson wasn't going to be a problem. [Kevin]"Now if I were a massive security system where would I be?" I walked around until I found an armory. [Kevin]"Bingo!"

I looked at the door to the armory. I hacked the key pad and broke in. Inside were some weapons and protection. I grabbed what I could into a few bags I picked up and ensured I was well stocked. Satisfied with my work I headed onward to find security. Shouldn't be that hard! I took out a map of the current area.... Still a while till I get there. I decided to play Candy Crush on my phone. While walking in a hallway? Bad combo.

Ordering pizza and milk shakes? Good combo!
