Lex thought it was rough trying to get back to civilization after the Antarctica incident, with all the questions and suspicions surrounding her being the sole survivor. But that was nothing compared to a superior alien species that hunts humans for sport deeming her public enemy no. 1 -- instead of their regular prey -- for taking out not only their nemeses but several of their own warriors. She's never been a killer, but that's all everybody seems to see her as. And it's not as if they're listening to her explanation of what happened to their warriors when they kidnap her off Earth. So she takes her first opportunity to escape even if it means she has to confirm herself as a enemy by killing one or few of their elite class of warriors. She's more concerned about making this ship work and if the planet she's about to crash on is survivable for human life. And most of all, if there are yautja here, then is the other alien species around too?

Royce figured he was a apex predator, the finest warrior, after surviving those aliens when he was positive he and Isabel were about to die. This next hunt is going like clockwork and even though she's been thinking and saying some wild shit lately -- almost like Noland was -- she thinks they're close to getting off this planet, and she's probably right. Especially when they see their best possible ride raining down from the sky like a shooting star off-schedule. Unfortunately, that's only the first surprise, when aliens of a entire different class come down. And then a entire different species. They have to race across this world to get to that ship before those surprises find them.


SOME EXTRA : Credit goes to DarksideMVs on YouTube!! yall have no idea how hard it is to find a Alexa Woods tribute vid y3ni shit I kinda did but not really -- I was too optimistic -- and shoutout @redr-d-nghood on Tumblr for the Royce GIF and Peaky Blinders for reminding me of my Adrien Brody thirst

                                   I talk about her sometimes, maybe not as much on here, but I'm kinda obsessed with Alexa Woods on the high -- she was a fucking revelation for me growing up and while my brothers couldn't shut tf up about how corny AVP was I idolize the shit out of her To This Day.

                                   And I'm so upset it took me this long to come up with this crackship b/c Adrien was fine as hell in that movie

                                   And comparing Predators and AVP and seeing it through that lens makes it even better y3ni Lex aint a soldier like they are no offense to them but Lex's a fucking genius alone or next to them she's motherfucking Lara Croft 10.0 and her having experience with both the predators and the xenomorphs and encountering Royce -- I just feel like that puts a whole nother spin on it

                                   I loved the alliance between Lex and the predators so even though they might see her as suspect after all the ones that encountered her died her relationship with them contrasting with Royce's relationship with them might get a little complex you can just avoid all that and focus on Royce encountering xenomorphs for the first time though

                                    And speaking of relationships -- Isabel. So it might be obvious that I don't like her ass, nothing against Alice she's always been bad, but she can go crazy like Noland and become a obstacle Lex and Royce eventually have to deal with on top of all the aliens or she can just be rattled and when they get off the planet she parts ways and goes home
