Hi everyone, AmorousXenomorph here! This is a story that I first wrote in November of 2014, and it has been burning a hole in my Google Drive ever since. I think it's about time that it was released to my audience of fellow Xenophiles! I've edited it a bit and properly divided it into chapters.

And in case it isn't blatantly obvious, this is gay Xenomorph/Human lemony goodness. It doesn't make much sense, but it was sure as hell fun to write! Be warned that there are some very gay lemons in here. Like, I squeezed one of them and it turned into rainbow lemonade. That gay.

Four's A Crowd

The blank faces of the abandoned buildings stared at him blankly as he ran by. Private Adam Neilson ran down the center of the abandoned boulevard as fast as he could. He was throwing quick glances over his shoulder as he ran, even though nothing appeared to be chasing him. There were no sounds other than the wind whistling through the empty streets and his feet slapping against the cracked asphalt. Off in the distance were the sounds of sustained gunfire. No doubt that must be where his squad was, still fighting off the Xenos.

Adam had been sent here along with a group of other new recruits on a training mission. Their objective was to sweep and clear an apartment block in a recently abandoned colony, a simple enough job that would have gone flawlessly if they hadn't found an entrance to a bug nest in the basement. They were ordered to retreat to the streets, but as they were leaving a group of Xenos came barreling out of the tunnel and attacked them. One of the smaller ones had pounced on him and had ripped off his chest carrier and backpack before another one of his fellow recruits blew its brains out. Even though he lost of his ammo would have stayed and fought if another Xenomorph hadn't attacked him. He managed to kill it by unloading most of his remaining clip into the creature, but by the time he killed it his squad was long gone. With no other options available, he had fled deeper into the city.

And now here he was, in the middle of an abandoned colony, running for his life with no weapons to speak of and no way of contacting his squad. A bleak situation in other words. All he could think to do was try and get as far away from the apartment as possible and get to the evac point. There was only one problem. Adam had no idea where the evac point was.

If only I had my gps, he thought. He ran in the direction he thought the evac point was supposed to be. He rounded a corner leading into a narrow alleyway, hoping to be able to cut across to another street or find a ladder so he could get an aerial view. Unfortunately for him the only thing down the alley was a series of doorways. Most of the doors were still intact with the exception of one doorway to his left, which had been ripped off its hinges by something. The door was lying next to the doorway it used to occupy. If was badly bent and had a series of claw marks running down it's length. Apparently whatever had done this was very strong and had very sharp claws.

"Fuck," he muttered under his breath. He turned around to go back out the way he came, but a hissing sound coming from the street stopped him dead in his tracks. Without waiting to see the Xenomorph walk into the alley he leaped to the left and tumbled through the open doorway. As soon as he entered the room he leaned against the wall next to the door and covered his mouth with his gloved hand to muffle his breathing. The incessant sound of the Xenomorph's hissing grew louder as it entered the alley. Adam leaned his head out the door slightly and could see it's large black form through the door as it stalked down the alley, but thankfully it walked passed the open doorway without so much as glancing at it. After looking around the empty alley for a while, the Xeno gave up with a disappointed screech and left.

Adam still didn't dare move. He didn't want to leave his hiding place yet, just in case the Xeno was waiting for him outside the door. He turned his attention away from the doorway and towards the interior of the building he was in. The area near the door was lit by the dim light coming in from the street, but the rest of the building was pitch black. That made it a bit hard for him since he lost his flashlight along with the rest of his equipment in the Xeno attack. Adam stuck close to the wall, running one hand along its surface as he groped his way though the darkened room. Even through his gloves Adam could tell that the walls were comprised mainly of cinder blocks. An odd choice for walls, since the use of cinder blocks in construction was almost archaic.

Must have been a pretty shoddy building, he thought. Eventually his hand stumbled on a lightswitch. Adam flicked it and to his surprise several light bulbs dangling from wires on the ceiling switched on. His guess of the building being shoddy seemed like a compliment once he took in the state of the room. Judging by the shelves of goods running lengthways into the building, it had obviously been a shop of some kind before it had been ripped apart.

Everything was painted a dull yellow color, including the ceiling. There were large spots that painters obviously skipped and the bricks that were painted were peeling badly. The floor was covered in a layer of trash, broken bottles and things that Adam couldn't even identify. Off on the other side of the room behind what probably used to be the checkout counter was another door that had been violently ripped from its hinges. Adam gazed at it apprehensively. He certainly didn't want to meet the Xeno who did that if it was still down there. However the room appeared undisturbed, so it had probably left a long time ago.

Adam picked his way through the filth on the floor over to the other doorway and cautiously peered through it. It was a staircase that lead downwards, probably to a basement of some description. He looked over his shoulder at the door leading to the alley. He didn't want to leave just yet.

Might be something down there I can use, he thought. I don't really have anything to lose anyways.

Being as quiet as possible, Adam walked down the stairs and into a relatively large hallway. The lights down here were on as well, except they were dim fluorescent ones instead of the ambient ones upstairs. The hall was made entirely from rough concrete and the floor wasn't nearly as filthy as upstairs. Further along the hall it veered to the right and presumably led to another room. There were several shelves lined up against the walls near the stairs, but when he checked them he saw that they were all barren.

"Goddamnit," he muttered. He turned around and was just about to go back up the stairs when a loud squeal from down the hall made him jump. He whipped around, his heart pounding. Another squeal sounded from further down the hall. Adam knew he should probably leave right then and there, but the sound peaked his curiosity.

Trying not to make too much noise, Adam walked down to the end of the hall. It made an abrupt u-turn degree turn before continuing back in the opposite direction. Adam peeked his head around the corner and saw another doorway missing a door at the end of the hall. Despite a lack of other options, he wasn't completely certain that the source of the squealing came was through the door until another loud squeal confirmed it.

Really not wanting to be heard now, Adam crept forward at an agonizingly slow pace, being careful not to disturb anything. Now that he was closer to the source of the squealing, he could pick up other sounds that he couldn't hear before. Accompanying the occasional squeals were the sounds of slurping and a dull slapping. Adam reached the doorway and peeked around it. What he saw froze him in place.

Ooooooh! A Cliffhanger! What did Adam see? I am a whore for reviews and feedback, so let me know what you think!
