A Ravager was the incarnation of a Hive's power with no opposition on the battlefield. The process for embodying this war machine was fatal, even for a Hive's most powerful warriors. But I was strong. I survived. I became my Hive's fury.

I became the apex predator.

When one looks at the vastness of space, one wonders if there is life other than their own. Perhaps there's an alien race out there that we have yet to make contact with, or maybe we are truly alone in this universe. These thoughts ran through Izuku Midoriya's head as he stared at the night sky from a desolate playground. Bruises littered his body, which he tried to hide behind his scorched and tattered clothes. His feet barely touched the ground from the swing he was sitting on as a light breeze gently swayed him.

The creak of the swing next to him caused the green-haired child to look at the empty seat. His eyes were fighting back a few tears until he quickly wiped them away and continued to look at the beautiful night sky. It was then he saw something burning bright zoom across the darkness. 'A shooting star?' the child thought. His eyes widened in pure wonder at the natural phenomenon before he quickly realized he needed to make a wish.

Was it going to work? Maybe not, but he was still going to try.

'I wish to get my Quirk and become the number one hero in the whole world! But if that's too much, then a best friend will be just as good.'

Izuku figured it was best not to push his luck, so he settled for asking for a friend. Unbeknownst to the child, his desire for a loyal companion was granted, but not in the way he might think.

Sounds of battle and death echoed throughout a ruined planet. What was ensuing was an ongoing hunt by the galaxy's greatest warriors. Their targets were a parasitic race of aliens known as Xenomorphs who had established a Hive deep beneath the planet's crust. These beasts are aggressive and surprisingly cunning, making them the perfect game for the battle-hungry Yautja.

Many Xenomorphs lay dead in the vast caverns of their home, but so too were many hunters. Their advanced weapons made quick work of the Hive's drones sent to intercept them, but resistance was stiff the deeper into the labyrinth they went. There were far too many passages in the dark cave to know where its Queen resided, so they split off into smaller hunting parties.

A group of four hunters were finishing up clearing one of the numerous chambers in the Xenomorph Hive. As one of them retrieved their spear from a dead alien's skull, they could feel the ground beneath them shake. Looking towards a large tunnel leading into the chamber, the four Yautja readied their weapons as they stared down the dark corridor. The loud rumbling and violent shaking made it feel like a train was thundering toward them, and they were in its way. That was when they saw it.

Two large serrated blades the size of trucks entered the room first covered in a sticky green viscous, followed by the nightmarish creature they were attached to. The amount of saliva dripping from the enormous maw of the beast made the four Yautja step back out of disgust. What stood before them was a rare prey that few in their clan had the pleasure of hunting—a Ravager.
