- "There's something else on this ship now -- something worse!"
- ―Lieutenant Denver regarding the Alien (from Alien vs. Predator: Thicker Than Blood)
A Xenomorph Drone was held captive aboard a Yautja Mother Ship, before managing to escape its imprisonment into the confines of the boarded human vessel, the USSC Double Down. It began wrecking havoc within the ship, until it was eventually killed by child civilian Maria and the Elder, Hook.
Characteristics and Traits[]
The Drone possessed a cunning intelligence, carefully biding its time whilst imprisoned within the Predator Mother Ship, before immediately seizing the opportunity to attack its captor. Uniquely, it also seemed to possess something of a vengeful nature, briefly torturing Hook by slowly gouging into his chest, seemingly as retribution for its imprisonment.
Biography[]
The Drone suspended in captivity.
At some point in time, a Xenomorph Drone had birthed from an unknown host. It is unknown if the creature was born in captivity by the disgraced[2] Elder Predator, Hook, or if it had been captured by him post-birth. Enchained within the confines of his Mother Ship, Hook intended to use the Drone in some form of initiation ritual for his two sons Splitter and Pig Iron, presumably for the purpose of a blooding.
Escaping captivity[]
As Hook and Splitter had recently boarded the human luxury spacecraft, the USSC Double Down and began slaughtering its inhabitants for invading their territory, Pig Iron opted to stay behind. Now alone, he proceeded to gleefully torture the Alien with his wrist-mounted flamethrower. Unbeknownst to either of them, child-civilian Maria and her Synthetic brother Tyler infiltrated the Mother Ship and accessed the control room.
The Drone kills Pig Iron and escapes.
After being shocked by the control's countermeasures, Pig Iron noticed the commotion and briefly diverted his attention. The Drone took full advantage of the moment and pounced on Pig Iron whilst his back was turned, biting into his neck and tearing out his throat. The ensuing chaos allowed the Drone to break free from its shackles, and it began stalking the ships' halls. The siblings have a close-encounter with the Alien, before it skulked into the confines of the Double Down, causing even greater chaos.
Chaos aboard the Double Down[]
- "Whatever that thing is you brought with you, it tore through your friends like they were nothing. What makes you think you have any chance against it? You can't even beat a couple of kids."
- ―Maria to Hook (from Alien vs. Predator: Thicker Than Blood)
The Drone kills Splitter.
Having previously bisecting Hook in an elevator, the two siblings intended to use one of his arms to access the handprinted controls and thus, returned to the forward lounge. There, they encountered the Drone battling Splitter. Splitter was defending the unconscious Hook, whose mangled limbs Splitter had amputated. As the children drag Hook's body into the elevator, the Drone eventually defeated and decapitated Splitter.
Meanwhile, the children and Hook ultimately end up siding with each other to kill the creature, and the three headed to the geo-lab to find explosives. There, they discovered that the creature had killed ship Lieutenant Denver, and was preoccupied with chasing his parrot, Juniper.
Final battle and Death[]
- "This is for my brother you ugly A-hole."
- ―Maria to the Alien (from Alien vs. Predator: Thicker Than Blood)
The Drone is killed by Hook.
Tyler alone tried to locate the bombs and the trigger, but the creature noticed the others and attempted to attack them. Tyler distracted the creature with a harpoon gun and sacrificed himself to buy Hook time to escape with the protesting Maria. However, after effortlessly ripping Tyler to shreds, the Alien promptly caught up with them and attacked the Predator. A brutal battle ensued, but Hook, disadvantaged due to his amputation, was eventually overwhelmed by the Alien, which briefly began torturing Hook by slowly gouging its claws into his chest. Maria eventually supported Hook using Pig Iron's wrist-flamethrower. She threw the Elder Splitter's whip, and he finally managed to kill the creature with it by splitting its head in two.
