agenda: Annalee Call. She gained access to the cell where Ripley 8 was held with the intent to killher in order to prevent the scientist from retrieving the Queen embryo. However, Call soon realizedthat she was too late. Also, Wren had noticed her unauthorized entry, took Call into custody andbrought her to the mess hall where the rest of Elgyn's crew was present at the time. Wren's accusationsof terrorist activity escalated into violence. Elgyn and the other smugglers quickly overwhelmedthe security guards, took Wren and a USM soldier called DiStephano hostage in order tofight their way back to the Betty, when a ship-wide alert was activated. The Xenomorphs had managedto escape from their cages and began to decimate the Auriga's soldiers and scientists.Perez ordered the evacuation of the ship, and while an undisclosed number of Auriga personnel wasable to escape in time, most of the remaining staff, including Perez, were killed off in the initial attack.The Xenomorphs proceeded to free the Queen and set up a hive in a waste tank of the Auriga.However, the Queen had in turn been mutated by Ripley's DNA and developed female reproductiveorgans, which caused the Xenomorph to cease their efforts to take victims for impregnation soonafter the hive had been created. Meanwhile, the crew of the Betty made their way towards theAuriga's docking bay. Ripley had also noticed the outbreak and escaped her cell. She found thesmugglers just in time to save them from a Xenomorph, which had just killed their captain, Elgyn.A fragile alliance between the two parties was formed, and following directions provided by Wrenand DiStephano, Ripley took the lead. However, time was running out as the Auriga, followingemergency procedure, had set course to the USM home base: Earth.During their trek through the Auriga, Ripley 8 found and destroyed the remains of the first sevenclones. The crew also picked up a civilian called Purvis, one of the human hosts from the passengerliner. Despite the fact that Purvis had already been impregnated, the crew decided to take him withthem so that Wren could remove the embryo later. While traversing the flooded kitchen of the ship,the survivors were attacked by two Xenomorphs and lost the crew members Hillard and Christie tothe creatures whereas Wren took the opportunity to leave behind the rest of the group. Call had beeninjured by Wren when he made his move, and when the survivors took a short break, it was revealedthat Call was a second-generation android who had made it her mission to prevent humanity fromunleashing the Xenomorph on the galaxy. Ripley convinced Call to manually log into the ship'smainframe, where she unlocked an escape route to the Betty and set the Auriga on a collision courseto Earth. The survivors had almost reached the Betty when Ripley 8 was abducted by the Aliens intotheir hive. Unable to help her, the rest of the group was forced to move on without her.Inside the Xenomorph hive, Ripley witnessed the birth of the Queen's Newborn, a grotesque human/Alienhybrid. Meanwhile, the surviving crew members had reached the Betty only to be confrontedby Wren. However, the chief scientist of the Auriga was killed by Purvis, who managed tooverwhelm him and pull his head to his chest just as the Chestburster erupted. The crew made shortwork of the creature and proceeded to prepare the Betty for take-off. At the same time, Ripley 8 escapedthe hive and reached the Betty just seconds before it left the docking bay. When the Aurigawas obliterated during the impact on Earth's surface, Ripley, Call and the rest of the group believedthe Xenomorph threat to be eliminated. However, the Newborn had managed to escape destructionas a stowaway aboard the Betty. The hybrid killed DiStephano, but was destroyed when Ripley usedher acidic blood to melt a nearby viewport, which sucked the Newborn into vacuum. Ripley, Calland the other two survivors from Elgyn's crew, Johner and Vriess, subsequently safely landed theBetty on New Zealand, Earth.
