October 3rd/2004

– Weyland Industries Satellite PS-12 detects a mysterious heat bloom beneath Bouvetoya, an island about one thousand miles off the coast of Antarctica. Wealthy industrialist Charles Bishop Weyland discovers through thermal imaging that there is a pyramid buried 2000 feet beneath the ice. Weyland immediately begins assembling an expedition to investigate the discovery, employing Max Stafford to organize the recruitment of the necessary outside experts in light of his own poor health. The team includes archaeologists, linguistic experts, drillers, mercenaries, archeologist Sebastian De Rosa and a guide named Alexa “Lex” Woods

October 10th/2004

A Predator Mothership reaches Earth’s orbit, it fires a beam that creates a passage through the ice towards the source of the heat bloom, allowing a passage for the human to reach the pyramid and serve as hosts to create aliens. When the team arrives at the abandoned whaling station above the heat source, they find the passage and descend beneath the ice. They locate the mysterious pyramid and begin to explore it, finding evidence of a prehistoric civilization and what appears to be a sacrificial chamber filled with human skeletons with ruptured rib cages.

Meanwhile, three teenager Predators consisting of Scar, Celtic and Chopper arm themselves, leaving the Mothership on Drop Pods, eventually arriving on the whaling station and killing the humans on the surface. They make their way down to the pyramid as the human team unwittingly activates the structure to awaken the frozen Alien Queen, she awakes from cryogenic stasis and begins to produce eggs.

Upon entering the structure, the Predators move towards the location of a sarcophagus containing Plasmacasters, which they must earn in the ritual. Discovering that the human team had found and taken their Plasmacasters, activating the pyramid’s shifting system thus trapping themselves, the predators split up to hunt them down.

The alien eggs are moved by machinery to the sacrificial chamber where a human group is stationed. When the eggs hatch, several facehuggers attach themselves to humans trapped in the sacrificial chamber. Chestbursters emerge from the humans and quickly grow into adult Aliens. Scar is the first to discover the human expedition, ambushing them and killing some before the shifting pyramid separates most of the survivors.

While the grown aliens capture some of the separated humans and start to build a hive, Celtic and Chopper find several of the survivors who are with one of the plasma caster, Celtic attacks by trapping Stafford with his Netgun, as the other attempt to help Celtic moves towards them he pushes Weyland and Lex aside Sebastian attempts to punch Celtic, who responds by choking the human who activates his Combistick and kills Starfford. Chopper moves to kill Lex who is with the plasma caster he is ambushed and killed by a lone alien.

Noticing the death of his fellow teammate, Celtic immediately tosses Sebastian aside and moves towards the alien.The alien jumps on top of Celtic who is able to hold the creature’s attack, he is able to kick the alien out of him and tries to kill it with his wrist blades. The alien is able to make Celtic fall, and tries to stab him with his tail, Celtic dodges and cuts it with his wristblades, giving it acid damage in the process, while the alien is stunted, Celtic pushes it against a pillar, then grabs it by the legs and throws it with his bare hands, as he runs to reach the alien, the creatures uses its cutted tail to shoot acid at him, getting on his armor.

The alien hides while Celtic takes off his armor before the acid burns him, and attempts to catch the predator by surprise as it jumps from behind, Celtic notices it and traps the alien with his Netgun, as the predator comes close to kill the creature, the acid blood is able to burn through the net after cutting  and scarring the alien’s head, giving him a “Grid” scar pattern on its head. Grid breaks free, tackles Celtic to the ground and kills him with a headbite.

Still in pursuit of the stolen Plasmacasters, Scar later caught up with Lex, Sebastian and Weyland, confronting Weyland when he attempted to buy time for the others to escape. Sensing the cancer eating away at Weyland’s lungs, Scar initially spared him, but when Weyland attacked with an improvised flamethrower, Scar turned and stabbed him on his Wristblades, killing him.

The shifting pyramid traps both the humans and Scar, preventing the predator from reaching them. The two witness Scar kill a facehugger and an Alien with a shuriken before unmasking and marking himself with the blood of the facehugger. After Lex and Sebastian leave, another facehugger attaches itself to Scar due to him not wearing his mask.

Through translation of the pyramid’s hieroglyphs, Lex and Sebastian learn that the Predators have been visiting Earth for thousands of years. It was they who taught early human civilizations how to build pyramids, and were worshiped as gods. Every 100 years they visited Earth to take part in a manhood rite of passage by which several humans sacrifice themselves as hosts for the Aliens, creating the “ultimate prey” for teenager Predators to hunt while being able to survive in the pyramid; if overwhelmed, the Predators would activate a self-destruct device to eliminate the Aliens and themselves. The two deduce that this is why the current Predators are at the pyramid, and that the heat bloom was to attract humans for the sole purpose of making new Aliens to hunt. Lex advices them to try to give the predator weapon back to the Predator, as only then it can deal with the aliens and prevent them from escaping to the surface.

Scar continues to pursue Lex and Sebastian, by this time the only Predator still alive inside the pyramid, Sebastian is captured by Grid. Scar eventually finds Lex, who gives him the Plasmacaster, realizing its significance and hoping Scar would spare her as a result of the act. The pair are then assaulted by a group of Warriors led by Grid, which Scar is able to hold off with the plasma gun. Lex attempts to ask Scar to join up with him against the creatures. Scar mutilates one of the dead Aliens, fashioning a shield from its domed carapace and a spear from the tip of its tail that she could use to defend herself. Forging an uneasy alliance, the pair heads for the Xenomorph Hive.

Inside the Hive, Scar and Lex discovered Sebastian cocooned and impregnated, Scar caughts the Chestburster that erupts from his body and snaps its neck. Scar then activated his Self-Destruct Device and left it in the Hive, fleeing the impending explosion with Lex. The Queen Alien, using her acid blood, is freed from her restraints and begins pursuing, along with the other Aliens, Lex and Scar.

At the base of the tunnel through the ice, the pair are attacked by Xenomorphs, and while Scar is wounded he manages to escape with Lex up through the access shaft. Scar’s Self-Destruct Device detonates moments later, and Scar and Lex flee the collapsing ice once they reach the surface. With the pyramid destroyed, Scar gives Lex an initiation mark of her own, burning it into her cheek with Xenomorph blood.

At that moment, the Queen burst through the ice, seeking revenge for the destruction of her Hive. Scar and Lex fight the Queen together, eventually chaining the beast to the whaling camp’s cast iron separating vat and pushing it over the cliff into the sea. The massive weight dragged the Queen over the edge and into the frozen depths, but not before she impales Scar with her tail, mortally wounding him. Although victorious, Scar dies.

At that moment, the Predator Mother Ship reveals itself nearby, while the Ancient Predator overseeing the hunt approached. The Ancient’s companions collect Scar’s body and carry it honorably to their ship, and the Predators departed. As a sign of respect, Scar’s body was placed atop a ceremonial plinth aboard the vessel, however, after the other predators left, a Predalien Chestburster emerges from his chest.

October 11th/2004

– Aboard a Predator Mother Ship which is passing Saturn after leaving Earth, anPredalien chestburster sneaks onto one of its Scout Ships, holding numerous captive Facehuggers, which soon leaves the Mother Ship back to Earth.

The Predalien quickly matures into an adult, and begins killing Predators throughout the ship and causing the ship to crash in Gunnison, Colorado. With the Predators dead, the Predalien and several Facehuggers escape into the forest and implant embryos into Buddy and Sam Benson, a father and son hunting in the area.

The Predalien and the other Facehuggers scattered themselves into the Gunnison County sewers, where the parasites impregnated a camp of homeless people. Encountering the female member of the homeless camp, the Predalien knocked the alien aside. Bypassing the egg-laying and facehugger stage altogether, the Predalien deposited Xenomorph embryos directly down her throat to gestate in her stomach.

A distress signal from the wrecked ship reaches a Predator world and a lone Predator called Wolf responds, traveling to Earth and using his advanced technology to observe the cause of the crash. When he arrives, he finds the crashed ship, and one of its passengers, he takes the dead predator’s mask and see its last recorded moments, seeing that the crash was caused by predator-hosted alien. 

Wolf opens his cleaner case, and uses a device to analyze the content of the broken cases, finding out that many facehuggers also escape, he takes his remaining gear and the dead predator’s plasma caster before activing the case’s self destruction sytem. Sheriff Morales leads a search party into the forest looking for the missing father and son and are spotted by Wolf. After the ship exploded Wolf began to erase the evidence of the Aliens’ presence by using a blue liquid to dissolve the bodies of the Facehuggers and their victims.

October 12th/2004

Shortly after the search is called off, Deputy Ray Adams spots the Predator using a blue liquid to dissolve the dead bodies of Buddy and Sam along with the Facehuggers. Ray is spotted and killed by the Predator. Wolfs tracks the residue of the Facehuggers to the town sewers, where the creatures have begun establishing a hive. He set three laser nets to contain the Aliens.

As soon as he was in the center of the sewers, he baited the Aliens to his location. Once the Xenomorphs were contained, he activated the nets, trapping the Xenomorphs inside. He is able to kills two aliens, while preparing to kill another two, the Predalien hit him with its tail which caused Wolf to misfire and collapse a part of the sewer, leaving a hole to the streets. He gets up, but too late to stop the Xenomorphs and the Predalien from escaping into the town. Wolf used his Power Punch Glove in his gauntlet to break out of the sewers and continued to pursue the Xenomorphs.

Wolf is baited by one of the Xenomorphs towards following it towards the Gunnison power plant, while the Predalien and the others hide on a diner, focusing on increasing their numbers, the Predalien implantes embryos into a pregnant waitress.

The Xenomorph spotts Wolf and craws beneath him before climbing up and whacking the Predator off the walkway, hurting himself on the fall. Wolf attempts to kill the deadly life form but due to the electro-magnetic interference from the power plant, Wolf’s targeting systems malfunctions and he fires on the power plant generators, knocking out all the power to the town and the Xenomorph escapes into the town. Focusing on his mission Wolf continues to search the town for Xenomorphs and destroys one located in the swimming pool of a local school.

After several more Bellybursters are born the Xenomorphs begin to overrun the town, the Predalien and its Warriors invade the local hospital. The Predalien enteres the maternity wing and deposited more of its young into the pregnant women while the Xenomorphs secrete Hive webbing on the walls.

National Guard troops arrive but are quickly killed by the Aliens. Wolf heals his wound and follows Kelly O’Brien and her daughter Molly to the town gun store, where a group consisting of the Sheriff, his friend Dallas and brother Ricky, and others are hiding. Wolf uses the humans as bait for the Xenomorphs, resulting in a fight followed where Wolf is able to kill all the Xenomorphs on the area. During the fight, one of Wolf’s Plasmacasters is damaged, after leaving the gun store, he integrats his two Plasmacasters into a custom-built, handheld Plasma Pistol.

October 13th/2004

As the group of survivors attempt to escape Gunnison they make radio contact with Colonel Stevens, who indicates that an air evacuation is being staged at the center of town. Kelly is suspicious of the military’s intentions, convincing a small group to go to the hospital where they hope to escape by helicopter while Sheriff Morales heads to the evacuation area with the rest of the surviving citizens.

Wolf then follows the Xenomorphs to the hospital, where the alien Hive was stabilished. He enters the hospital and is attacked from behind by the Predalien, but he injured the Predalien with his wristblades prompting it to send three Xenomorph Warriors against him. He destroyed the three and struck down another two Xenomorphs with Shurikens, accidentally killing one of the humans. Due to that Wolf is shot by Ricky and a Xenomorph managed to push Wolf down an elevator shaft as he was distracted and loses his Plasma Pistol. Ricky is injured by the Predalien, who flees after being shot by the humans and Dallas takes possession of the Wolf’s Plasma pistol.

As the battle reaches the rooftop Dallas buys time using the plasma pistol against the alien as Ricky, Kelly, and Molly attempt to start the helicopter to leave, when Dallas is about to get killed he is saved by Wolf, who destroy the floor just beneath the running alien, giving him the opportunity to escape on the helicopter with the others. Wolf kills the alien with his whip and is surprised by the Predalien, Wolf tries to use his whip on the creature but fail, he then tries to fight it using his spear, but then misses the Predalien when he throws his weapon at it, leaving him to continue the fight on hand-to-hand combat. 

Wolf is overpowered by the creature but manages to rip the creature’s inner jaw out, then unsheathes his Wristblades and impales the Predalien’s head, in response Predalien stabs him through his chest with its tail, mortally wonding Wolf just as a military jet arrives and is revealed not to be a rescue airlift but rather a bomber; it executes a tactical nuclear strike that destroys the town, killing the Predator, the Predalien, and any remaining Aliens and citizens.

The shock wave from the explosion causes the fleeing helicopter to crash in a clearing, where the survivors are rescued by the military and the Wolf’s Plasma pistol is confiscated. Colonel Stevens presents the weapon to a Ms. Yutani, who remarks that the world is not ready for this technology. Colonel Stevens replies that the technology is not for our world.

2005

A National Guard squad attempts to rescue a few final survivors during Hurricane Katrina bears down on New Orleans from the rising floodwaters before they must retreat to the shelter set up at the Superdome. They encounter a crashed SUV, the female driver of which lays sprawled on the hood, apparently crushed and impaled by a fallen tree. The soldiers rescue a young boy from the vehicle and, with time running out before the hurricane hits, head out in their Humvee. As they drive, the squad’s leader, Sergeant Lejeune, investigates the video camera that was locked in the unconscious boy’s hand.

Viewing the footage recorded on the camera, Lejeune watches a chaotic firefight in the previous day, during which a group of unidentified men fire at a hulking wolf-like creature whilst also being attacked by a large invisible figure. As the men are killed, the last orders the survivors, the little boy holding the camera and the woman found dead on the jeep, whose names are revealed to be Frankie and Ro, to flee.

The tape reveals the group seen in the firefight filming an episode of their amateur reality show named Cryptozoid Crackdown, in which they investigate rumors of strange creatures across America. Lejeune fast-forwards through the crew’s unimportant bantering, resuming the footage when she sees a campsite covered in blood and eviscerated organs. As she watches, the film crew find a traumatized Frankie amidst the carnage, caked in mud from the bayou. When they question him, he reveals that his father was killed. One of the team asks if he was killed by the Rougarou, the mythical beast they are chasing, but the boy claims it was “something else”. At that moment, the Humvee is struck by a large object and crashes.

Back at the SUV, Ro awakes beneath the tree on the hood,  to find the invisible figure responsible for the slaughter in the bayou standing over her. Ro tells the creature she is only interested in saving Frankie and, to her surprise, it spares her, even passing her a tracking device to help her find the boy. Meanwhile, Lejeune’s squad is under attack from the object that struck their Humvee: the Rougarou, a huge, wolf-like beast. They shake the creature off but realize they cannot outrun it in the rising floodwater. With the storm wall of Katrina approaching, the squad instead elects to go to ground. They break into a supermarket beginning to barricade the building as best they can and are surprised as Ro crashes through the door in an airboat. One of the soldiers recognizes her as the woman they had left for dead at the SUV, and she explains that she is after Frankie, warning the National Guard that they are not safe.

The rougarou crashes into the store and kills one of the National Guardsmen before gunfire from the others forces it to retreat back outside. Realising their current location is not secure, the squad relocates to a nearby church. As they attempt to barricade the building’s doors, they are attacked by both the rougarou and a Predator. A frantic three-way confrontation erupts inside the church, during which most of the National Guardsmen are killed. However, Lejeune and Ro manage to force the rougarou outside, whereupon the Predator kills it and tears out its skull and spine, before disappearing into the storm.

Lejeune and Ro are rescued by a helicopter once the hurricane has passed. As they fly away, Ro ponders why the rougarou pursued Frankie, what the Predator was and why it let her live. Considering how her story would be received, she destroys the tape from the camera and throws it out of the helicopter into the floodwaters below. Meanwhile, at the corner of the cabin, Frankie opens his backpack and pulls out the tiny rougarou cub that he had collected in the bayou before his father was killed.

The group goes back into the lodge and tell the other guests what happened, which include Maxim, a failed musician and a former KGB Russian couple, Marikova and Nikolai. The Russians laugh and mock the group while Rath makes up an excuse for what happened, having witness several of his cameras having gone off near the swamp, he plans to send a group of his soldier to investigate the area.

Marikova wanders in the night and despite the Predator’s cloaking she is able to notice the creature sabotaging and sinking the ships, making the preparations for the game it wants to play with its inhabitants. Both she and Nikolai have been sent by the Russian Government to investigate on Gustav and his knowledge on the Predators. Rath’s soldiers investigate the swamp, they are ambushed and begin to get slaughtered by the Predator, the only survivor attempts to flee but accidentally falls into the river occupied by Pol Pot, who eats him.

Gustat evaluates his options on how to engage with the Predator, having bought 3 items by Onyx, a suit which covers the body of his heat signatures, a black box that can bait signals to attract predators and a device that can fool Predator tech to respond. He goes to wander into the woods to find more clues of it and decides to head towards Base X, a Military Thai base despite being off limits to the guests. Contrary to his wishes the 2 Russians and Maxim invite themselves to come along, eventually find an area with the remains of several animals killed by the predator, which only their mutilated, skinned or skeletons remaining close to Base X.

Sukhon decides to go to Rath’s island, after having seen the Predator’s ship heading towards its direction.

Rath decides to go to his weapon depot, bringing Gustat, the Russians, and some of his men with him. As they approach the area with a jeep, they are pushed by the predator who makes the vehicle fall and hurt Nikolai’s face with his claws, they reach the weapon depot and find it destroyed with several of Rath’s men without their heads. They find a pile of weapons, left to them by the Predator to provide challenge, including a 200-year-old musket. The predator walks into the woods on the way to his ship carrying 2 human bodies and Pol Pot surprises it by taking the human’s body and leaving quickly, the Predator analyses the animal but decides to not pursue it and take his time with the hunt.

The humans spend the night on the lodge, worried about having lost all contact with the outside world and Rath tells then a supply airship is coming but there is only space for 2, they take straws and Maxim and Tau are chosen to go. The airship arrives in the morning but is jumped over by predator, despite Rath’s men firing at it, he is still able to destroy it, as the group is stunned by the explosion, the creature escapes going back to his ship, hidden beneath the leaves in the swamp. The Predator wonders about the signal from the device send by Gustat and how the human was able to make it, which was what made his mothership to come to Earth. He watches several monitors from showing live transitions of other Predators hunting across the galaxy, recording his hunt through his helmet to the mothership as well.

Sukhon and her men arrive at Rath’s island, finding a body without a head, they confirm the creature’s presence. Tau and Colquhoun device a plan to take the fight to the Predator instead of waiting for it by going to its ship, surprising it and trying to use any of his tech against it. Rath decides to relocate all of his men to the temple bunker, building a defense fortress against the threat.

Gustat locates the Predator ship and stays hidden behind leaves and mud wearing his suit waiting for the creature to come back to it, he observes as Horia’s group finds it as well, using his device he opens the ship’s door to bait them to enter it. They enter but instead of finding something that could help them in the fight they only find the creature’s trophies and cameras. Maxim finds himself alone in the lodge, he goes to Gustat’s room hoping to find anything useful and is surprised by the Predator, due to being unarmed the Predator gives him knife, takes its mask off and pushes the man urging him to engage in close quarters combat but Maxim doesn’t respond.

As the Predator leaves the lodge, he is shot by Marikova, who has spent the last hours camping and preparing the right moment to snipe on the creature, while Nikolai has been resting to the damage he got earlier. The Predator shots one of her decoys that falls on an area that she armed several traps. The Predator doesn’t take the bait and tries to find her, but discovers the humans entered his ship, deciding then to run back to it.

Horia and the others see the Predator coming through the monitors and rush to leave, the Predator spot them just as they exit it, shooting Colquhoun right away, he then pursues Horia and Tau into the wood, eventually shooting Tau’s leg. Gustat takes advantage of the situation and enters the predator’s ship, placing a bomb on it, planning to detonate it as it rendezvouses with the mothership. Marikova watches Gustat as he does this and notices Colquhoun is still alive despite being beyond help, she kills him. Gustat becomes aware and uneasy that Marikova is in the area, knowing her mission about targeting him, Gustat shoots at her, who shots back revealing her position to the Predator that soon came back, despite try to relocate she is hit and injured by a Predator disk.

The Predator then enters the ship, taking Colquhoun with him, he then throws Gustat’s bomb out of it, changes the ship’s “lock” so it can no longer be opened and uses the ship the damage the surrounding area while Gustat and Marikova run, the Predator heads towards Rath’s temple-burker after taking making a trophy out of Colquhoun.

Nikolai wakes up briefly recovering after becoming “sick” due to the previous physical encounter with the Predator, believing he might have gotten infected with a virus, he then uses heavy drugs to stay up for combat and heads to the temple-bunker. Gustat and Marikova recover after the Predator’s departure and meet, deciding to make a draw and part ways.

As the Predator approaches the temple he is found by Nikolai, who challenges him to a close combat fight using his knifes. While the two fight, Rath and his men notice the 2 fighting, deciding to blow up the whole area around it to kill the Predator, but are delayed by Marikova who starts sniping at them. Before Marikova is able to help Nikolai, he is defeated and heavily injured by the Predator, as the creature goes to finish him, she starts shooting at it, in response the Predator shoots and removes her left arm.

Horia carries Tau as they flee through a river but are attacked by Pol Pot, who eats Tau and leaves soon after without attacking Horia, soon after he encounters Gustat and decide to team up and head towards Area X. The Predator takes out the snipers on Rath’s base before blowing his way inside it, taking advantage of chaos and confusion he is able to kill most of the soldiers, the rest retreating deeper into the temple. The Predator throw the heads of its victims over the wall to the remaining soldiers while playing the voices of those he killed to scare the last of its prey. The Predator breaks into the room Rath and the last of his men are, killing most while others flee, he challenges Rath to a hand to hand combat but is shot instead, responding by cutting Rath’s head with his spear. Horia and Gustat enter Area X, finding out it’s a Predator “lodge”, that the creatures have been using it as an outpost to hunt in the area for decades or more. They destroy the base to set a trap leaving only the ship for the Predator to return.

As the Predator leaves the temple-bunker, he is shot by Sukhon, who used the piece of Predator tech as a bullet to pierce through its armor, while stunned the Predator’s plasma caster is shot and damaged.  Marikova, who used her medical kit to hold the pain of her injuries, had been waiting for the right moment to strike, she shoots the Predator with her sniper on the same place Sukhon did. Due to the damage the Predator runs to Area X’s outpost but finds it destroyed, he removes his and heads towards the ship, now his only option in order to recover and contact the mothership.

The Predator finds Horia and Gustat on his way towards his ship, before he is able to kill Gustat, Horia jumps at him from behind trying to hold it, still the Predator is able to throw a disk at Gustat while Horia uses another one to stab the Predator on the back and tell Gustat to run. Angered the Predator knocks Horia back and rushes to the ship, finding an injured Gustat and carrying him with it, to collect his head later.

On his way through a river the Predator is attacked by Pol Pot, who stuck his jaws into his legs, the Predator removes the armor covering it taking the animal off him, while throwing his blade at the crocodile. As the Pol Pot disappears into the water, the Predator uses the rest of his energy to enter the ship, he throws Gustat into a corner and sits on his chair, using its medical tech and leaving to meet the mothership above. Gustat reminds of one of his encounters with Onyx, and how he told him that going after the creatures wouldn’t make his pain go away, but only bring it back, reminding of his wife and son, Gustat decides to use his last resort plan. With the help of Onyx Gustat planted a bomb inside himself, with a detonating device on his left thumb, he cuts his finger off, and breaks it, activating his self-destruct. The Predator realizes what he is doing on the last second, but isn’t able to get to him in time, the two of them die as the explosion destroy both ships.

After the survivors witness the explosion, Maxim meets Marikova and she invites him to leave with her, expecting Russia to send someone to rescue her in a week. Most of Rath’s remaining men join Sukhon’s crew and Moria accepts being used as ransom by the pirates as long he is able to leave the island and return to Romania. Nikolai continues to wander into the hoods having lost his head to his sickness and the damage from the fight.

2010

– A mercenary named Royce awakens to find himself freefalling over a tropical jungle. As he nears the ground, a parachute on his back opens, and he floats down to the ground. After landing in the jungle he is immediately confronted by several other heavily-armed individuals.

Trying to find high ground, the group inadvertently springs a series of booby traps. The creator is discovered to be another man who lies dead nearby, killed some time previously, seemingly by a high-powered energy weapon. Continuing on, the group discovers that they are on an alien planet.

They are then attacked by quadrupedal alien creatures, until the creatures are called away by a high-pitched whistle. Royce deduces that they are in some kind of game preserve, and the creatures that attacked were being used in a manner similar to hunting dogs by whatever is hunting them.

They follow the creatures’ tracks back to a campsite, where numerous skinned carcasses are hung from the trees and a captive Predator is bound to a metallic monolith. They are suddenly attacked by three cloaked Predators. The group flees over a cliffside and jump down a waterfall into a lake, escaping their pursuers.

Royce correctly deduces that one of the members, Isabelle knows something about the Predators that she isn’t revealing, forcing her to admit that she had read a report about an encounter with a lone Predator in Central America back on 1987. The report told her the creatures had active camouflage and infrared vision.

Royce organizes the group to set a trap for the Predators. Before they can fully prepare, they are attacked by an insectoid creature, which Isabelle apparently shoots dead, only to discover her shot went through a tree trunk; the creature was really killed by a human wearing scavenged Predator equipment, revealed to be a U.S. Army soldier named Noland.

Noland takes the group to his hideout inside some kind of huge abandoned vehicle, where he explains the true nature of their situation: the Predators have been harvesting formidable fighters from Earth and other planets for several centuries, transporting them here to hunt them and thereby improve their skills.

He also states that the Predators always come in groups of three and that there is a blood-feud occurring between two different tribes of Predator — the “berserker” tribe, who are now hunting Royce and the others alien creatures as well as others of their kind like the one of which they found tied up at the Predator camp. He adds that the Predators have a spacecraft near their camp, which Royce is determined to commandeer in order to escape the planet.

As the group rests, Noland attempts to murder them via smoke suffocation in order to steal their equipment. Trapped, Royce alerts the Predators to their location. Noland attempts to escape but is cornered and killed by the Tracker Predator, while the Predators release the remaining humans from the room they are locked in, seeking to prolong the hunt.

As the groups runs, Nikolai is shoot by the Predator then impaled by his wristblades and detonates several Claymore mines attached to his vest, killing both. Stans is shot from behind by the cloaked Berserker. The Predator de-cloaks in front of the frightened humans and locked his tri-beams on Royce and prepared to fire his Plasmacaster. Stans, however, having surviejumped onto the Berserker’s back and stabbed him multiple times, giving the others time to retreat. The Berserker grabs Stans and throws him over his shoulder with ease. Stans taunts the Predator to kill him before the Berserker obliged, tearing Stans’ spinal cord along with his skull from his body. Claiming Stans as a trophy the Berserker let out a roar of triumph.

As the group flees, Hanzo decides to stop running and stand and fight with the Katana that he had taken from Noland’s lair. Royce acknowledges what he’s doing, and he, Isabelle and Edwin leave him. Hanzo is then approached by the Falconer Predator. Realizing that the Predator is a creature of honor, he engages in an intense one-on-one battle with it. Due to his smaller size and agile reflexes, he is able to strike it several times, but the creature’s strength and constitution remains too powerful to be killed from blood loss.

Hanzo is also wounded, and is slashed across the back by the Predator’s blade. Realizing that he can’t kill it with this method, he lunges at the Predator in an all or nothing charge and strikes it against its Abdomen, severely wounding it. The Predator drops to the ground and dies shortly afterwards. But Hanzo himself had his chest sliced open and gasps for air before he collapses and dies.

As the final three group members flee through the jungle, Edwin is crippled by a Predator trap. Royce attempts to convince Isabelle to leave Edwin behind, but she refuses. Royce continues on to the camp alone in order to free the captive Predator they saw earlier, theorizing it will assist him in exchange for its release, before heading to the spacecraft to escape. The Berserker caughts Isabelle and Edwin in a net and takes them back to the hunting camp. As he threw them into a pit, he notices that the Crucified Predator had been freed by Royce. The Crucified Predator activates his spaceship to get Royce back home. The Berserker roars furiously and as Royce flees, the two Predators charged at each other and clashed.

After a relatively short, but viciously brutal fight, the Berserker overwhelmed his enemy and grabbed Crucified by the throat. The Berserker takes off his Bio-Mask, revealing his face, roared as he raised his elongated Wristblade and decapitated his enemy.

At the pit Edwin paralyzes Isabelle with a neurotoxin and reveals to her that he is not the outsider everyone had thought he was, but is in fact a psychopathic serial killer. After realizing the ship’s departure can’t be stopped, the Berserker then activates a remote explosive aboard the spaceship, destroying it as the ship attempts to depart.

Royce, however, was not on board and returns to rescue Edwin and a paralyzed Isabelle from the pit. Edwin attempts to attack Royce but is disarmed and himself paralyzed, before Royce booby-traps his body with hand grenades and leaves him for the Berserker Predator. The latter finds Edwin and stabs him but triggers the trap; the resulting explosion disorients it.

Royce ignites a circle of gunpowder set up prior, trapping the two in the center and rendering the Berserker’s heat vision useless. Angered, the Berserker roars as Royce takes advantage of the surroundings, hiding among the flames. Making repeated running attacks on the Predator before fleeing back toward the safety of the fire, Royce appears to be wearing the Berserker down.

However, the Predator is able to detect Royce’s heartbeat and fires his Plasmacaster. Incapacitated by the explosion, Royce is blown back and loses his axe.

The Predator begins to violently beat Royce with his bare hands, grabbing him by the throat preparing to decapitate Royce with his Wristblade. Seeing Royce injured, Isabelle attempts to crawl to her sniper rifle and chamber a round. Struggling, she succeeds in shooting the Berserker through the chest. However, she only manages to enrage the Predator.

Turning his attention to Isabelle, the Predator launches his Wristblade impaling her in the shoulder. Seeing Isabelle hit by the Wristblade Royce is enraged, regaining some of his strength and unbeknownst to the Berserker, grabbing his axe.

Royce strikes at the distracted Predator, destroying its Bio-Mask and exposing its face. Repeatedly striking the Predator in the head with his weapon, Royce severely injures the Berserker, finally decapitating it.

The next morning, Royce and Isabelle, with their wounds somewhat tended to, observe more humans and aliens being dropped into the jungle. Royce then tells Isabelle that they will find a way to get off the planet.

2015

Having retired from the LAPD after forty years of service, Mike Harrigan now advises urban police forces around the world on how to takle extreme gang violence. Attending one such conference in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, he bumps into former OWLF member Garber, who moved on from his previous career and now sells high-tech weaponry.

They hear the sound of a distant explosion from outside, Harrigan rushes to investigate seeing more blasts erupting in the midst of the sprawling favela that covers the hills above. Garber joins him, and through the high-powered scope attached to his rifle spots a skinned body hanging from a tree in the favela. Realizing a Predator must be hunting, Harrigan and Rio’s cops head off into the favela, while Garber returns to his stall to arm up.

On their way into the maze-like slum, Harrigan bumps into a local boy named Fernando who offers to help show him through the favela to the source of the commotion. The pair soon discover the carnage left by the Predator, Harrigan deducing it has come to Rio to hunt the heavily-armed drug gangs that operate in the favelas, mirroring the hunt in Los Angeles that he himself had been involved in many years previously. They find the Predator just as the creature slays several gang members with its Plasmacaster, at which point Garber reappears and engages the hunter in a firefight with his high-tech firepower.

Realizing he is under-equipped, Harrigan raids a nearby gang hideout for weapons before setting off in pursuit of the creature. He finds an elevated position from which to fire on the creature, witnessing as it blows Garber apart with its Plasmacaster. He is preparing his own shot when he is stunned to see Fernando engage the creature with hurled handfuls of fruit, revealing the creature’s through its camouflage, and Harrigan saves the young man when he shoots the hunter in the shoulder. The wounded creature flees, and Harrigan and Fernando follow its trail of luminous blood.

The Predator is eventually trapped between Harrigan and a heavily-armed police squad headed, who all rain gunfire down on the creature, seriously wounding it. It slips away from the police, but Harrigan corners it and is preparing to finish it when he is confronted by four other Predators. The new arrivals do not attack, but instead reveal they have come to Earth in pursuit of the individual causing havoc in the favela, who is apparently wanted by them. Understanding, Harrigan allows them to restrain the rogue individual and take him away, explaining to the others afterwards that the others would “punish him in their way”.

(PREDATOR: IF IT BLEEDS)

2017

An elite American military unit known as the Reapers assaults a remote drug lab hidden in a Central American jungle, killing its occupants and destroying the product and hardware present at the site. Having completed their mission for no losses, the eight-man team heads back to their base of operations in Georgia. The Reapers are attached to Project Stargazer, a top-secret government program that seeks to capture a live Predator specimen for study, successor to the OWLF. However, as there have not been able to acquire physical evidence of Predators for many years, the Reapers frequently find themselves on loan to the CIA, completing operations for them, such as the raid on the cartel lab, in exchange for funding to keep Stargazer going.

Although their most recent mission is a resounding success, Project Stargazer’s funding remains critical and the politicians behind the program’s budget are beginning to view it as a waste of resources; after years of increasingly severe cuts, General Woodhurst, the man in operational control of Stargazer, fears it will soon be cancelled altogether. Hoping to prevent this, he travels to Washington D.C. for another round of negotiations, accompanied by William Traeger, a CIA agent who is attached to the program. En route, Traeger raises the possibility of going outside the government and finding corporate partners to fund Stargazer, but Woodhurst is concerned by the potential security risks of involving the private sector.

While Woodhurst is away, control of Stargazer falls to Pappy Elliot, himself a former CIA agent who survived an encounter with a lone Predator during the Vietnam War. The team receives reports of a potential Predator incident in Florida, where several hunters and a motorcycle chapter have been gruesomely slaughtered. The Reapers move out, setting up in a motel in the area and planning their next move. Hearing that the local police are preparing to raid a meth lab, the Reapers decide the incident has a good probability of attracting the Predator’s attention, and they move to intercept it. Sure enough, they arrive at the scene to find the creature attacking both the meth dealers and the police assault force. The resultant battle is fierce and bloody, half of the Reapers are killed, along with many police officers, but the surviving team members succeed in capturing the Predator.

The subdued creature is taken back to Georgia, where Project Stargazer’s scientists begin conducting all manner of tests on both it and the technology it carries. News of the capture reaches Woodhurst in Washington, the General is devastated by the loss of his men, but takes solace in the fact Stargazer’s funding issues will be a thing of the past now that they possess irrefutable proof a Predator exists. Roger visits the creature, wondering if it’s the same one he encountered years ago. The Predator remains patient and unworried, believing that he will be able to escape and recapture his tech or self-destruct it. However, later that night, the captured creature escapes, apparently assisted by one of Traeger’s men. Pappy attempts to stop it fleeing the base, but is killed in the process. When word of the Predator’s escape and their mentor Pappy’s death reaches the four surviving Reapers: Tomlin, Hill, Hyde and Pulver, they arm up and set off in pursuit, determined to catch and kill the creature before it can return to its ship and flee from Earth. Along the way, they notice a helicopter is also pursuing the escaped hunter.

In Washington, Woodhurst and Traeger meet with the committee behind Stargazer’s funding, who are justifiably concerned that the very creature the program was established to capture has so quickly escaped. Woodhurst seeks to calm them and point out the potential technological benefits of their continuing to fund the project, but Traeger cuts in and informs the assembled politicians that he has already secured funding from private corporations that would allow Stargazer to operate at no cost to the taxpayer, under CIA supervision. Woodhurst realises Traeger is attempting to wrest control of the program from him. Afterwards, Woodhurst bitterly congratulates Traeger on his manoeuvring, while Traeger in turn promises Woodhurst he can keep his job if he so chooses, although the implication is clear, Woodhurst would be little more than a figurehead.

Back in northern Florida, the Reapers catch up to the Predator at an abandoned carnival and discover the helicopter they spotted earlier has beaten them to the scene. Its occupants, a CIA team hoping to capture the creature themselves and thereby cement Traeger’s reputation as the right man to lead Stargazer going forward, have already engaged their target. However, unknown to them, the Predator has already recovered new weaponry from its ship, and it wipes out the Agency men easily. The Reapers then engage the creature themselves; after a lengthy and brutal battle, Hyde, Pulver die, while Tomlin, his second-in-command Hill and the Predator are heavily wounded. The predator attempts to activates its self-destruct device but is stabbed with his own spear on the forearm device by Tomlin, who passes out afterwards. The two survivors are evacuated by the CIA pilot, shortly before the Predator’s self-destruct gauntlet detonates, but due to the damage to the wrist gauntlet, the explosion is smaller.

Several weeks later, the two surviving Reapers are in medically-induced comas due to the severity of their injuries, being watched over by Woodhurst. Meanwhile, Traeger mourns the loss of the Predator but congratulates himself on taking command of Project Stargazer. As he takes stock of the situation, he is approached by one of his men, who informs him that the Predator may have sent some kind of transmission back to its home world before it was killed.

2030

– After being left alone for 100 years, the Predator Scarface stands atop a pile of the dead extraterrestrial creature while a Predator mothership arrives above him. 

His clan returns and offers him a chance for redemption, an Elder Predator shows Scarface through the recording of a fallen clanmate how humans have been using highly advanced weaponry reverse-engineered from the equipment that Scarface left behind to capture them. Scarface is sent with the mission to reclaim the stolen technology and slays those who would dare use it.

Scarface arrives the rebuilt New Way City, now known as Neonopolis, where several gangs are Predator technology and wage mob warfare amongst themselves. The Predator decides to stalk the gangs, hoping to eventually discover the source of the stolen technology. Scarface decides to target Les Serviteurs first, a Haitian criminal gang and voodoo group built on a cult of sacred killers, devotion of gods of slaughter and magic.

Scarface takes advantage of a war on the street between the gangs to easily purge them, taking the members using the cloaking devices and skinning them. As the police arrives arrived to the area with their Ulysses, a power armor series manufactured by Borgia Industries operated by Synthetics, they are able to contain the gangs, the Predator decides to kills them as well, eventually finding the location of Les Serviteurs’s lair.

After killing all its members, Serviteur Houngan, their voodoo priest and leader attempts to fight the Predator with a sword, his head is taken by Scarface who then skin all those he killed and hanged them upside down.

Scarface chooses another target, the Dead Men, violent drug addicts, who displayed no emotions and living simply to get high and kill all who opposed them, due to their involvement in toting black-market Prometheus Tech weapons from the Borgia family, which are derived from Predator tech. The Predator arrives on their area, disrupting their activities while attempting to locate the ship of his fallen clan brothers, the hunter eventually tracked the gang to their secret headquarters in an old church, where they were holding a typically violent music concert. 

He then destroyed the gang along with their three leaders, the Dead Men Triad, after taking their head and skinning the bodies and hanging the others in the church, Scarface locate his clanmate’s ship, using it to move to his next target.

Scarface infiltrated into the Don Giovanni’s shielded private island the leader of Neonopolis Mafia, an Italian-American criminal gang also involved acquiring stolen technology from Borgia Industries. The Predator deactivated the defense systems of the mansion and taking advantage of an attack by a rival gang the Juvenite Pack-9 gang who used a stolen Ulysses android to destroy the entrance to the mansion, the Predator moved towards his goal.

As the two gangs fought each other Scarface retrieved a Predator glaive and found the Don hidding in a covered hallway, after killing him the Predator joined the warzone, eventually destroying the stolen Ulysses and its pilot, then setting his eyes on Vincent “Vinny” di Angelo, Don’s personal bodyguard and chief assassin, taking his head as a trophy as leave skinned bodies around the mansion’s entrance.

Due to the downfall of Les Serviteurs, Dead Men and Don Giovanni’s Mafia, Los Matadores a Mexican-American criminal gang led by El Hongo was able to easily take control of the city business. Scarface targets their leader, stalking El Hongo as he went around the city arranging business.

El Hongo soon realized something was not right and assumed one of the cloaked Les Serviteurs was following him. He then he went to one of his safe houses and ordered one of his members to stay alert for any troubles. After Scarface had killed the Matadores’ gun traffickers, El Hongo found them skinned and hanged.

After finding his men dead, El Hongo called his boss Lucretia Borgia, granddaughter of Bruno Borgia and executive of Borgia Industries, trying to explain about Scarface killing his men and ruining his business, but is ignored. Scarface followed El Hongo to a strip club, and while El Hongo was inside, the Predator killed all the Matadores pimps and prostitutes around the city, hoping to make El Hongo run to his superiors, revealing the source of the stolen weapons.

After driving away, he went to New Way Field, El Hongo called Lucretia for protection because his surviving men were leaving Neonopolis in terror. Lucretia sent Viktor the Chechen and his Machine Men, a group of cybernetically-enhanced mercenaries to deal with threat. Scarface battled the Machine Men, taking Viktor’s head as a trophy. After their deaths, El Hongo called Lucretia again to inform her about the death of the the mercenaries, Lucretia tells him to go to the South Point Docks where Baby Blew and her gang were working to protect an important Prometheus tech shipment going on so the security would be high.

El Hongo arrives at the place and is met by Baby Blew, while trying to tell her that she wouldn’t believe what the Predator did to his men, she replies by saying he wouldn’t believe what the she did to men, telling him to relax and enjoy as she proceeds to give El Hongo a lap dance. Scarface follows and is surprised by jamming field on the dock base, disrupting his cloak system, despite this the Predator is still able to eliminate the guards on his way without alerting his presence and destroy the generators deactivating the jamming field. With his cloaking back Scarface sneaked and destroyed the Tech Weapons Shipment, alerting all in the area. El Hongo immediately realized that it was the Predator that had destroyed the ship and its cargo, then fled as Scarface slaughters each of the Black Ops. El Hongo is found by Scarface as he tried to escape, getting skinned and hung on a sign. Baby Blew calls Lucretia to warn of the shipment’s loss, who is infuriated by this blow to her company, after finishing the call she is stabbed by Scarface, who to mock her played a recording of her saying: “What I have done to men you wouldn’t believe. Just relax and enjoy”.

Scarface takes a hike on car as it goes to the Borgia Industries weapon depot, his next target. He is spot on cameras by Lucretia and her father, Hunter Borgia, who comments on how stronger than the others Scarface is. Hunter comments that MOTHER was right, and the heat brought Predators like flies into a spider web, Lucretia questions him on why Scarface is targeting them. Hunter tells her she doesn’t need to know and to not worry as he would find the Predator’s vulnerability.

Scarface infiltrates the depot, slaughtering several Borgia soldiers with suits built with predator tech, Ulysses androids and a Weyland Industries Executive trying to buy stolen tech. Lucretia evacuates the area with her Ronin Guards, while 4 genetically altered cyborgs are dropped from dropships to deal with Scarface. Those armored super-soldiers form an elite assault group known as The Monster Squad, with weaponry hardwired into their brains, ensuring that they would kill their enemies efficiently.

The 4 attempts to bring down the Predator but are killed and their skulls taken, Hunter then deploys a larger group of dozens against it. Despite being greatly outnumbered, Scarface fought as many as he could but due to the damage the Predator is defeated and passes out as he tries to reach for Hunter, who meets him to tell he never hunted anything like them before. The Predator notices the resemblance to Bruno Borgia, confirming that the ones responsible for everything are indeed the descendants of the man he killed 100 years ago.

As Hunter and Lucretia accompany the scientists dragging Scarface back to their labs, Lucretia tells her father how they should sell the MOTHER computer and Prometheus tech and leave the city. Mentioning Yutani Corporation and Weyland Corporation as candidates, mentioned that Hunter knew Charles Weyland before his disappearance. Hunter refuses, saying Neonopolis should always stay on Borgia’s hands and tells Lucretia to bring their business back to normal now with the threat gone. Lucretia asks what Hunter have been doing to himself on the isolation tank, he avoids the question and reminds of his goal to ensure that on Earth men is the ultimate predator.

Scarface reawakens inside a high-tech Borgia Industries facility, despite his injuries he is able to overcome the scientists’ anesthetic dose and quickly escapes his bonds. Unleashing chaos on the facility, he reclaims his weaponry and frees several other captured Predators before fleeing the complex.

Lucretia is contacted by the MOTHER computer who advices her to dispatch the three cybernetically-enhanced Predators to stop Scarface; he defeats two of them, but the third escapes. 

Scarface then faces Lucretia’s Ronin Bodyguards, samurai equipped with swords made from stolen tech and cloak devices, he defeats them then follows Lucretia to the Borgia Industries headquarters, where he finds himself within a holographic recreation of 1930 New Way City, including a perfect replica of the church where he confronted Isabella 100 years before. Inside, Scarface duels and finally kills the third human controlled Predator, before entering the chamber housing MOTHER, the supercomputer that controls Neonopolis. 

MOTHER is revealed to be Isabella Borgia, somehow still alive after 100 years, held inside a preserving tank and linked into the city’s computer network. She reveals to her granddaughter Lucretia that after shooting Scarface in the eye, splashing both herself and her newborn son Hunter with the creature’s blood, she and her son took the blood giving them unnaturally prolonged their lives, making Hunter about 100 years old.

As MOTHER tells Lucretia of her ultimate plan to clone an army of stronger human like Hunter to conquer Earth and the Predators, Scarface enters her chamber. He prepares to finish her, but Isabella reveals one last trick and unleashes a swarm of Xenomorphs upon him. Scarface descends into the Hive below, slaughtering the Xenomorphs and sabotaging MOTHER’s security systems.

As Scarface goes back to Isabella’s chamber she tells him that without his blood, Hunter would have died as Bruno fathered a weakling and that Predator and her are the father and mother of Neonopolis as well as of Hunter. She declares that even though she only had 1 night with the Predator she never forgot about him, Scarface stabs Isabella and uses his vocal mimicry to replay a sentence said by Bruno to taunt her.

Scarface pursues Lucretia, finding her just about to be killed by her own father Hunter, who has undergone genetic manipulation to become a hybrid of human and Predator traits. A final battle takes place between Scarface and Hunter, raging out onto the roof of the building, with Scarface eventually taking Hunter’s head as a trophy and cheering that he was now the boss of the city.

After painting his clan’s symbol on the face of the giant statue of Bruno Borgia atop the Borgia Industries building using Hunter’s hybrid blood, Scarface is recovered by his clan and accepted back into their fold, redeemed.

Later, an individual identified only as Mr. Weyland buys out Borgia Industries and turns Lucretia Borgia into a new MOTHER computer, as agents from the Yutani Corporation congratulate him.

2089

– Archaeologists Elizabeth Shaw and Charlie Holloway discover a star map among several unconnected ancient cultures. They interpret this as an invitation from humanity’s forerunners, or “Engineers” and send a message to Peter Weyland, the elderly CEO of Weyland Corporation to fund an expedition there. Peter Weyland eventually agrees on the creation of the scientific expedition using the vessel Prometheus to follow the map to the distant moon LV-223.

December 25^th 2093

– The members of the scientific vessel Prometheus arrive in LV-223 where they are informed of their mission to find the Engineers. Mission-director Meredith Vickers informs them of their mission to find the Engineers and not to make contact without her permission.

The Prometheus lands on the barren, mountainous surface near a large, artificial structure, Inside, they find stone cylinders, a monolithic statue of a humanoid head, and the decapitated corpse of a large alien, thought to be an Engineer; Shaw recovers its head.

The crew finds other bodies, leading them to surmise the species is extinct. Crew members Millburn and Fifield grow uncomfortable with the discoveries and attempt to return to Prometheus, but become stranded in the structure when they get lost. The expedition is cut short when a storm forces the crew to return to the ship.

David secretly takes a cylinder from the structure, while the remaining cylinders begin leaking a dark liquid. In the ship’s lab, the Engineer’s DNA is found to match that of humans. David investigates the cylinder and the liquid inside. He intentionally taints a drink with the liquid and gives it to the unsuspecting Holloway, who had stated he would do anything for answers. Shortly after, Shaw and Holloway have sex. Inside the structure, a snake-like creature kills Millburn and sprays a corrosive fluid that melts Fifield’s helmet. Fifield falls face-first into a puddle of dark liquid.

December 26^th 2093

The crew returns to look after the two lost members, they find Millburn’s corpse. David separately discovers a control room containing a surviving Engineer in stasis, and a large 3D holographic star map highlighting Earth. Meanwhile, Holloway sickens rapidly. He is rushed back to Prometheus, but Vickers refuses to let him aboard, and at his urging, burns him to death with a flamethrower.

Later, a medical scan reveals that Shaw, despite being previously infertile, is now in advanced pregnancy. Fearing the worst, she uses an automated surgery table to extract a squid-like creature from her abdomen. Shaw then discovers that Weyland has been in stasis aboard Prometheus. He explains that he wants to ask the Engineers how to prevent his death from old age. As Weyland prepares to leave for the structure, Vickers addresses him as “Father”.

A monstrous, mutated Fifield returns to the Prometheus and kills several crew members before he is killed. The Prometheus’ captain, Janek, speculates that the structure was an Engineer military base that lost control of a virulent biological weapon, the dark liquid. He also determines that the structure houses a spacecraft.

Weyland and a team return to the structure, accompanied by Shaw. David wakes the Engineer from stasis and speaks to him in an attempt to explain what Weyland wants. The Engineer responds by decapitating David and killing Weyland and his team, before reactivating the spacecraft.

Shaw flees and warns Janek that the Engineer is planning to release the liquid on Earth, convincing him to stop the spacecraft. Janek and the remaining crew sacrifice themselves by ramming the Prometheus into the alien craft, ejecting the lifeboat in the process, while Vickers flees in an escape pod. The Engineer’s disabled spacecraft crashes onto the ground, killing Vickers.

Shaw goes to the lifeboat and finds her alien offspring is alive and has grown to gigantic size. David’s still-active head warns Shaw that the Engineer is pursuing her. The Engineer forces open the lifeboat’s airlock and attacks Shaw, who releases her alien offspring onto the Engineer; it thrusts an ovipositor down the Engineer’s throat, subduing him. Shaw recovers David’s remains, and with his help, launches another Engineer spacecraft. She intends to reach the Engineers’s world in an attempt to understand why they wanted to destroy humanity.

After the two leave LV-223, in the lifeboat, an alien creature bursts out of the Engineer’s chest.
