Stalker slowly approached the Xenomorph with his wrist blades holstered but ready to be used. He was curious to see if it would attack him, and if it didn't, perhaps they could benefit each other.
The Predator had slain several serpents before, even helped slay a queen. But as much as he hated to admit, he knew that he wouldn't leave the city without help.

It continues to stare. Then you realize something, if this was a real Xenomorph, loyal to his queen, why isn't this place infested?
-
The idea of a rogue serpent troubled him, but also fascinated him. Xenomorphs were the ultimate hunting game. But Stalker would have to put that aside in order to escape the city alive. He yanked the skull out from a dead federal agent and held it out to the serpent, as a sign of temporary truce. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
-
The Serpents tail crept from behind him and took the skull reluctantly. It nods.

As he did so, the red laser in the side of his mask shined, indicating that it still worked. They had seen better days especially since they had been tampered with by the Feds. His net launcher had no nets; something he would surely fix if they were to ever escape. After reuniting with his gear, Stalker approached one of the windows and looked out into the city. The rain was still pouring and the city was still very dark. He wondered how many lifeforms would fall victim to him and his new uneasy ally.
-
The Serpent approached him and got his attention. It nodded it's head to the west, indicating the way out of the city.

Edited by FriedUpChicken: 2/9/2016 8:15:10 PMStalker understood what the Serpent was motioning, and so in response he headed towards the other end of the room which faced West. He approached one of the windows and slammed his fists through it, causing it to rip like paper. Rain and glass flew past him as the violent sounds of wind filled the empty room. He poked his head down out the window to see if it was climbable, and sure enough it was. There were several inclines and balconies that the two could use for traveling downwards. The Predator turned to the Serpent, stared, then jumped out of the window and onto one of said balconies, about 3 stories below.
-
The Serpent does the same, following close behind.
-
Stalker jumped down another two stories and onto an incline. Around the corner of the building, an engine could be heard among the rain and wind...
-
The Serpent follows and quickly looks at the noise.
-
A bright light shined from the edge of the glass windows as the noise grew closer.
-
The Xenomorphs arm blades came out. He was ready for a fight.
-
The attack ship turned around the corner as its headlamp shined directly onto the two. Its brightness caused a sudden shift in Stalker's vision, causing him to change his thermal vision manually. He growled, noticing that it had a minigun attached to it.
-
The Serpent shrieked, as it crawled up a wall with surprising speed and leaped at the ship, arm blades at the ready.
-
The ship attempted to evade the incoming serpent and turned its side to the Predator. Its minigun began to spin and unload hundreds of bullets. The Predator began to jump across the many inclines of the building as a trail of bullets followed him. Windows shattered and glass bursted into dozens of sharp pieces.
-
The Serpent managed to hook onto the side of the ships hull, and clawed its way to the top. Once there, it stabbed itself in the knee, as its arm blade is covered in its acidic blood. It cuts through the hull like paper as it eventually makes its way inside.
-
Stalker jumped down a few stories to get out of the minigun's field of vision. The red 3 dotted laser on the side of his bio-mask began to shine against the minigun from below. At first, his plasma caster refused to fire. He yanked it off his shoulder, banged it a few times, and reconnected it. It was now ready to fire, and without hesitation he took the shot. A ball of plasma flew out of the caster. It shined through the rain and flew straight into the minigun. The caster itself made a troubling noise as if it was nearly broken.
-
You hear faint screams from inside the ship, as it slowly starts to fall. The Serpent jumps out and lands next to you.
-
Stalker looked down as the small attack ship began to fall with the rain. He then looked up and at the Serpent, impressed although not willingly.
-
The Serpent did the same and waited for what to do next.
-
Stalker proceeded to jump down several stories, landing on balconies and inclines to break his fall. After several minutes of this, the two finally reached the bottom. At this point Stalker was ready to finally be on the actual ground, and carelessly jumped off from three stories up, slamming through a balcony and falling right onto the sidewalk.
-
The Serpent chased after him and inspected him after the fall.
-
The Predator growled angrily at the Xenomorph, as a way of telling him to get away. He threw the debris from the balcony off of him and got on his feet.
-
The Xenomorph growled in response and backed away.
-
A flash of lightning lit up the streets as Stalker turned to what was West. The only lights on seemed to be from the main building they had just escaped. Other than that there were a few flares here and there inside local buildings. The city had an eerie feel to it and was most certainly filled with scavenging Fed personnel. The Predator, remaining cautious, began to head Westwards by simply walking through the streets. He didn't mind having the enemies come to him, as it made things easier in his point of view.
-
The Xenomorph crawled a nearby house and jumped from roof to roof, sticking to the rooftops like a lookout.
