The doctor removes the device from Twilight's neck and nods, Twilight looked at him angrily, he had a Weyland W on his chest and she didn't like it. The doc smiled and took a couple steps back before speaking to the alicorn.
"Everything seems fine, Sparkle, your stallion friend only had a couple strains and one fractured bone. Scootaloo banged her head really hard against a wall or maybe the floor which explains why she was out for so long and you....you seem alright to me" Twilight looked at him not speaking a word to him. She didn't trust him knowing where he came from. "Of course we will need to keep an eye on you for awhile to make sure everything is okay, that you remain stable" The doctor tapped a syringe and looked at her, "Funny , not very talkative are you?"
"No, I'm not...I don't like the company" Twilight grunted at him and he chuckled back at her reaction. "Whats so funny?"
"Why would there be a need to hate the company, we keep you safe , building a better..."
"World, yeah I have heard your shit before. If this is better, can I go back to the way things were please?" twilight said looking away from the doctor, he frowned and set down the needle, Twilight leaned away from him and grunted again really uncomfortable being around a Weyland Yutani. Being in this station didn't help her either, every thump or rattle it made caused her too jump out of her seat or where ever she was it would startle her. "Am I done here now? Can I go?" Twilight looked at him and forced a smile pretending to appreciate him in the slightest as to not make him feel his doctor skills were taken for granted or were poor.
"You can leave, I have a patient of high priority coming to the station. I am done with you" The doctor said picking the needle back up as Twilight left. "Have a good day, Twilight Sparkle, you are going to need one after what happened" the door sealed shut and Twilight looked back at it and growled kicking her hoof at it, she then stuck out her tongue and turned walking away.
"This is wonderful, can anything go right. This place is already bad but now there is a Weyland here, things just got that much more diffi...cult..." Twilight stopped seeing two ponies having a talk with two ponies who were also wearing Weyland uniforms. "You have got to be joking, this can't be happening" The two ponies were being questioned on something and Twilight tried to avoid them. Everypony here was a professional at something, so who knows what those two Weylands wanted. Fortwaid is not a passenger ship and if your a civilian you can only stay one night for a break at space flight, like Twilight did before going to Valuntas. Twilight managed to make her way past the two Weylands but managed to run right into Coco. Pammel fell on her flank and shook her head looking around to see Twilight.
"Twilight, I am so sorry. I didn't mean to run into you" Coco quickly got up and Twilight raised a brow looking at the mare. "Are you alright, Twilight?"
"No, your fine. I am the one who ran straight into you. Are you okay?" Twilight used her magic to help the mare back up onto her hooves, "Have you seen White and Scootaloo. I need to talk to them as soon as possible! Could you help me, Coco?" Twilight beamed a smile and waited eager to hear Pammel's response to the question.
"I'm sorry...I can't tell you that. I have not seen them sense we arrived to the station, Twilight"

The dead facehugger was laying on the surgery table and the chestburster was wiggling around in the glass container not far away. A couple of surgeons were standing around the facehugger with melted tools on their table. They were thinking and writing down details, The acid blood of the facehugger proving to be a pain in the dissection. One of the ponies takes off his medical mask and rolls his eyes, this stallions name was Gears. He was known to try and make things work, if there was a problem he would try and find a way around it. Tossing his tablet aside he began to shake his head completely lost on what too do.
"No, thats simply not going to work! Dammit I thought maybe a tougher metal would make this work! Clearly I was wrong, tell me, does anypony know what this thing is yet?" Gears looked at the lifeless creature and tapped his hoof and the ponies around him began to chat to themselves not knowing what to say on the thing. "What are you? How did you die little guy?" Gears then moved his attention to the baby Xenomorph in its small cell. "Also what are you? Where did you come from?" Gears opened the top of the container barely to move a scalpel inside. Slowly he pressed the blade on the head of the creature causing it to bleed slightly, the blood immediately began to melt away the scalpels blade. Pulling out quickly he looks once again at the facehugger and the chestburster, the chestburster had several small cuts on it from the tests with blood. "Are you related?" Gears stepped back and looked over to one of the mares and smiled. She took off her mask and smiled back, the mares name was Lily Grassland. She had a black cat resting its body on her back.
"Gears, any luck with the snake of yours? I can order more scalpels if you need" Lily giggled picking up one of the tools that were half melted from the blood that touched it.
"Lily its not a snake, it has some features of one but its not one. Oh and didn't I tell you too stop bringing that cat in here, we don't need his claws all over everything" Gears narrowed his eyes at the cat and then to lily. "Please remove the feline from the room, Lily" Lily giggled and shook her head at Gears.
"Sure, once you make me" Lily walked past and stuck her tongue out teasingly to make the stallion blush. Which he did, Gears smiled and walked after her, she was pretty to him and everypony else on the station. However she was his best friend here, he felt she needed to stay with him for protection unaware she could protect herself. "So any idea how this thing died? That and why does it matter?" Gears shook his head upset not knowing the answers to this one. Lily smiles again before wiping something off the stallions shoulder. "You seriously need to watch where you stand, especially in here because you got this nasty stuff all over you silly" Gears looked confused and looked at his shoulder and there was a clear substance resting there. "what is this stuff anyways?"
"I don't know...where...where did it come from" he wiped his hoof on it and it stretched, it was a sticky slime of some sort. Gears looked around and noticed some more resting on the floor where he was standing earlier. "What the hell?" Lily tilted her head as he walked over to the area where more slime was resting.
"What is it Gears?" Lily followed, the substance was laying on the ground and they both knelt down to get a better look at it. "What did you spill this stuff of some...." A drop of the slime dropped from above landing on the mares nose "Thing" They both looked up and from a small ventilation exit there was slime dripping from it Gears stood up and looked through the cracks as the substance continued to drip. "Gears?"
"What the hell?" Gears narrowed his eyes and some of the substance collected under his eyes, the fluid then stopped suddenly. Gears looked in the vent harder to get a look at what was going on he moved to adjust his sight and something could be seen resting , it was looking down at him as he looked at it, it began to raise its head. It was shinny and began to bare its teeth which were silver colored. Moving away he began to breath heavy. "STEP BACK! Something is up there" Everypony in the room looked over and Gears moved Lily away from under the vent. "Something is up there..."

Twilight walked with Coco talking about things she was comfortable with. Twilight, even though she wanted the entire world to know the truth of Weyland and the Xenomorphs she still couldn't find it in her to say it yet. Especially with all the Weyland troops walking around, they might shoot her on once she started talking. She hated them and Coco started to sense it as they walked.
"Allot of my friends didn't make it...the captain didn't make it...." Coco paused and interrupted and brought up the most confusing part of their first contact on the radio.
"You said something about an Alien...what was all that about?" Coco stopped walking and really wanted an answer on this, "What did you mean by alien? You couldn't mean another life could you because that makes you look crazy Twilight" Twilight stopped and looked at Coco, she did mean another life because that is what Gash was, an alien organism.
"I-I...Well...You see there is something...." Twilight stopped as two ponies in Weyland uniforms came running down the hall, the pulled out their weapons and pulled the slides back. "Oh no..."Twilights ears pinned back afraid they were coming for her, Pammel looked back and watched the troops come this way. They ran by talking to each other and they attempted to shut up as they passed Twilight.
"One of them is here" Twilight managed to make out that much of the conversation, unsure what they meant she cut off the conversation with Coco and walked behind them slowly. Coco Pammel frowned and followed not letting this information get away from her, she needed to hear from Twilight what was going on, what happend to Valuntas.
"Twilight wait!! I need to know! Come back!" Coco Pamel put on her mask and ran after the alicorn angry that she had left her behind. "TWI!!" The two troops rush into the room where the facehugger surgery was taking place and the door immediately sealed shut. Twilight slammed her body up against it and started to knock at it as Coco was almost there Twilight heard ponies talking.
"There is something up there, what are you doing!! STOP!!" a gunshot was fired followed by screaming and thumping, Twilight pressed her ear on the door trying to listen. Another gunshot was fired and followed by more screams and struggling sounds. Twilight stepped back and Gears ran out of the door as it unsealed, Lily close behind..there was blood on them. Twilight stepped back and began to shake her head from what she saw, the end of a long tail zoomed up into the vent as ponies rushed out of the room, the two Weylands were dead on the floor. More troops came up from behind halting the fleeing ponies and Coco stopped behind Twilight and took off her mask. Twilight turned around with fear in her eyes. Gears was fighting against the troops and Lily too but with no prevail. The troops didn't want panic and thats all Twilight wanted to do as she stared at Coco who was now shaking Twilight trying to get her to speak. Everyponies voice was muffled as she blocked it all out, Twilight didn't want to believe what she saw, it was a Xenomorph.
