ALIEN: EREBUS by EthanWRichardson
20 parts Ongoing Mature
Set between the events of Prometheus and Alien: Romulus, Alien: Erebus is a harrowing tale of survival, corporate greed, and the unimaginable horrors lurking within the deep reaches of space. The story follows a new crew aboard the USCSS Erebus, a research vessel originally sent to explore a mysterious anomaly on the fringes of known space. Decades after the ship's disappearance, the wreckage of the Erebus is discovered by a salvage crew seeking to cash in on the corporation's latest lucrative find. As the crew begins to investigate the abandoned ship, they quickly discover the truth behind its fate. What was supposed to be a routine mission becomes a nightmare as they uncover the remnants of a dark experiment-one that was directly linked to the Prometheus expedition. A dangerous alien organism, born of the Engineers' ancient experiments, had been secretly transported aboard, causing the Erebus to crash in the void. The crew, desperate to escape, failed to destroy the creatures, and the ship became a floating tomb. In the wake of the ship's rediscovery, the salvage team, along with a handful of survivors, must navigate the haunting ruins of the Erebus as they face an all-consuming terror that has only grown stronger over the years. But what they don't know is that the horrors aboard the Erebus were not just biological-they were also tied to Weyland-Yutani's insidious plot to weaponize the Xenomorphs, using the alien DNA to manipulate human physiology and enhance their military assets. As the creature within the ship awakens, the survivors must battle their inner demons, face corporate betrayal, and contend with the terror that stalks them through the ship's wreckage. But their escape may not be enough. In the darkness of space, no one can hear you scream-especially if the Xenomorphs have learned to adapt. Will the creatures be eradicated, or will humanity be left to face a new, more terrifying chapter in its history? Only time will tell-but it won't be easy.
