Extraterrestrial DP1

by V Bertolaccini

  When Dan and the scientist arrived their lights combined and illuminated the whole area everywhere brightly, and he started to realize how strange the skeleton was, and that its middle region had exploded out, as though something had powerfully attacked it from behind.

  Chapter 7

  Extraterrestrial Eggs

  At the entrance to a small chamber at the side of the chamber Ripley stood with his mouth wide open, as he entered, trying to see what was there, and he stood transfixed by silver spheres covering the whole floor, and many in large heaps, and shifted further in realizing they could be some form of new technology, and even some form of energy pods, for some unknown use.

  Even though he knew they were perfectly symmetrically round, made of some unknown material, he sensed they were more and he sensed hideous danger, as though bred into to him to detect such things, like some unknown sixth sense, and the fact it was there in such a hideous place, in the depths of a hideous desolate world, lost out in the depths of space.

  Yet the place could have been there for millions of years! What the hell could survive for that length of time? He considered if they were some form of robot life form, and could survive there.

  In his communicator he listened to all the scientists from the shuttles at work and their excited communications to each other, as they were examining everything all over the flying saucer, and the remains of the killed humanoid life forms, which they believed had been the occupants of the flying saucer, and they were being found all over the place, and the dangers amazed him.

  The extraterrestrial saucer was becoming less glamorous and more and more of a problem!

  What astonished him now was when all of the shuttles had landed above, and the scientists had arrived there that they had told them that the gunfire in the snowstorm was a flying robotic device, similar to a scarecrow, which had detected them, but its senses had been hindered by the snowstorm, and the explosions were energy blasts, and not gunfire, which it was using to scare them away with, and perhaps put there by the extraterrestrials that had built the tunnel down, and transporter device.

  Though there was a slight extraterrestrial signal coming from the robotic device, and other devices found surrounding the area, surely warning of the dangers there, they had discovered the extraterrestrial DP2 signal they traced to the world and site was coming from the flying saucer itself, and had surely been blasting out through the depths of space for millions of years, and they were sure it was a warning message to stay away from the world.

  They were sure whatever the extraterrestrial killer was it had originated on the original world, and it had been the only life form to survive, and they believed the DP2 world entered a further out orbit, and when the flying saucer landed it found the remains of the world under the ice and discovered what was there, and they had been killed, and buried away beneath the ice.

  Chapter 8

  DP2 Evacuation

  Ripley stood silently at the remains of the body of the German engineer in the dim light in the Starship S1 storage chamber, buried deep below the floors, in a region of the starship he had never seen, in emptiest remotest region, at the bottom of the starship, and he breathed silently into the coldness there, and examined what had happened to the body, and covered it over with a white sheet, put there by the scientists that found him.

  Slightly shaking as he attempted to realize what had gone wrong, and what they were being confronted with, and again realizing at least one of the DP2 extraterrestrials had got aboard.

  He was staggered and could not grasp what would happen!

  After all their troubles and procedures taken, avoiding the extraterrestrials getting aboard, one had actually done it and he realized he might not make it back after all, and he realized again that it had actually happened before they had landed on the world, and the engineer had been attacked and killed when they were going into orbit, and the scientists believed the DP2 extraterrestrial had used the technology of the flying saucer to detect the starship up in orbit.

  What they never got was how it had made it there, and entered the starship’s defenses.

  He realized the scientists had known the dangers when they arrived at the flying saucer, from scientists that had come down in other shuttles from the starship, from when it had been found.

  It was incredible that they had actually managed to escape from the DP2 world at all, as the life form pods he discovered, and they found in chambers all about the saucer, began coming to life, from their form of suspended animation, or revivable dead state, and they got out fast, and got into space in the shuttles before they were restored to their normal state of existence.

  They could not believe the power and intelligence the things had, from the information they got from the saucer, and could even survive off rock if they had to, and that they were actually originally a highly advanced life form that was capable of altering itself into other highly advanced life form formations, many of which it had taken from the extraterrestrials it had encountered, and surely to survive the hideous environment of the world, and many of the scientists believed it had become or could be one of the deadliest menaces, and the extraterrestrials that visited it and left the tunnel down had left it and had been unable to destroy it.

  Long dark shadows in the badly lighted storage chamber viciously grasped his imagination and he shifted about looking for anything behind metal crates, where the scientific equipment was stored, and realized what such a life form could do there, and he tried to figure out how it had killed the German engineer, and stopped when he realized the scientists had been unable to find it.

  The mission to the scientists was now insane and none of them knew what they were up against and would happen, and if they were up against things of their worst nightmares, capable of destroying them, and the entire Earth, and could not believe they were already dealing with an ultimate deadly life form.

  Ripley tried to explain the horrors he encountered, and that it could have emerged from the planet, and why they might not emerge in the future, and the DP1 and DP2 worlds they had visited, and he could not grasp how DP2 life form entered space, got through the starship’s highly advanced surveillance technology and defenses, and its almost impenetrable shell.

  The deadly extraterrestrial DP2 world below was hideous, and its hideous environment made it almost uninhabitable, and the extraterrestrials had been deadly beyond anything they had encountered as they had frantically fought to survive there, and he shifted out of the darkness in the storage chamber into a lighted region, revealing his pale complexion and shaken appearance.

  Chapter 9

  DP2 Life Form

  The DP2 life form altered its composition as it successfully examined the confines of the Starship S1, deep into its interior, as its shape glowed from powerful bright explosions of energy blasting through it, and viciously examined the creatures aboard and its fight for survival.

  For the first time in many thousands of years it felt obliteration, and it constantly altered its formation, and absorbed more energy from sources around the starship, while stopping itself being detected, and destroyed by the colossal forces.

  It thought of its hideous destruction and wished its species would survive and leave the world, where total death had consistently haunted it, and it could barely remember what it had originally been like, and their eternal fight to survive and had gone on through thousands and thousands of years, and their dormant state was death, and their way of reviving themselves, and returning to life, and their supernatural forces.

  Its mass of energy formed into a ball of energy, which it had used to travel through space and enter the space vehicle, where it destroyed one of the creatures, after analyzing its composition, and recording everything it could about it, and swiftly shot forward to an unguarded source of energy, and consumed more energy forces, and left, and in an abandoned region of the starship entered a ventilation shaft, to an unknown hidden place, where it formed into an early creature of the DP2 world.


  Where part of it began examining everything it had found and what the creatures were, and it grasped the opportunity to discover ways of obliterating the species out of existence once it could, with all it could muster and to form itself into a new species, and colonize their world, with others like it.

  Its world was unrecognizable and it was staggered by its differences to what it had once been and what could exist in such an environment where life had once flourished everywhere, where energy was available in vast amounts, and it monitored areas of itself where it had been damaged in its fight to survive and it examined repairs to itself and it considered how the occurrence could possibly end, and it felt some satisfaction from the completion of repairing a major region of damage.

  It eventually was able to alter to an extraterrestrial humanoid formation, with intentions of forming into a human someday, which it intended to alter to on its arrival to the creature’s world, and it gained new powers, from the vast energy supply it gained, and it managed to adapt back to its normal formation, adapted to the surrounding environment, and as it shifted about its long black shadows of its creature formation shifted about like a transparent ghost monster lurking around, and it momentary stopped astounded as it realized what it was to the creatures aboard the starship and that it had been trapped on a desolate region of a strange universe, and it began to contemplate the real dangers to its survival and eternal life and it began to contemplate how far it would have to go to for it to survive, and far further than it had ever gone before, and it might have to destroy all the creatures aboard the starship.

  Its recalled ancient memories of its species and it returned to another of its ancient original states, and swiftly altered its formation and appearance, realizing it must recall something ancient, and something from the depths of time it needed to know, and it realized how ancient it was, and how altered it now was, and a crazy version, but far more advanced, and it believed it had a beginning source, but could grasp what it had been!

  In its original state it tried to discover the answer to what it should do and it shifted through all the information it had collected and suddenly realized the creatures had been contacted by an unknown form of communication from its world, from the strange unknown species of the flying saucer, and it considered if it could make contact with them on behalf of the species.

  It was too deadly, and it was trapped out on the strange celestial object with unknown new life forms and it realized it had to fight to survive further than it had ever done before and it wondered if it could, and it realized it could be detected on their world and it would have to fight to survive.

  Its hideous monster shape altered and it took a new formation, and examined objects through the starship hull, and it stopped to examine its sun, and its size and power now astounded it and it realized the starship had moved location, and had left the orbit of its world, and that it might not ever see its world again, and the sun reminded it of what it had once been when its species had survived on the surface of the world, before the snow and ice had emerged and the sun shrunk in size.

  It had never seen anything like it and it could not explain its feelings and its existence and it struggled to explain how it functioned and its strangeness grasped its imagination, and it realized that it had died with the rest of its race, but unlike other species it had been revived by something supernatural.

  Chapter 10

  DP2 Departure

  The DP1 extraterrestrial carried out alterations to its composition as the DP2 sun vanished through a Starship S1 window, and it completely altering its human host it had inhabited further to not showing anything of its presence, and it was positive it was entirely undetectable, and it could stop the host from knowing anything of its existence, as well as if it was detected by it, as it could swiftly alter its mind and memory.

  The ice world had been astonishing and had left it staggered, even compared to its own world, and it had entirely hidden itself from detection while on the surface, and it had only tried to detect what was there and what the signal was from, and any dangers that would confront its human host.

  For the first time in countless centuries it had proper energy supplies, which it had many thousands of years ago, as it used massive amounts of energy from the starship, keeping itself in what seemed like a hyper existence at times, and had even repaired aged and decomposed regions of itself, and to a degree of individual atoms.

  It had been staggered by the DP2 extraterrestrial encounter, which had left it confused as it had no recall of the extraterrestrials and their true powers, which seemed colossal and created to survive the hideous environment of the DP2 world, and it had realized many things about itself and that it had been different at one point and what it had altered into and something far different, which it still continuously tried to grasp.

  Surely its fight for survival would be over when they reached a proper habitable world, and it considered if it should go to the Earth instead, as there were great dangers, and that it could be caught, or it could be caught in the future if their technology advanced far enough.

  There was also the DP2 extraterrestrial aboard the starship and the danger from it, and its destruction of the starship, and that it might detect it, and they might detect it discovering it.

  The starship computers had vast amounts of information, and the most interesting could be stuff found on the DP1 starship, which it wanted to search through to find any account of itself, and the DP1 starship astonished it.

  For a moment it stopped, astounded by something, and sensed something and their departure from the world, and it realized it had detected the DP2 extraterrestrial that got aboard and that it was somewhere strange, at the bottom of the starship, and realized how dangerous it was.

  Chapter 11

  DP3 World

  Ripley sat back into his seat glaring out the shuttle window wondering what was happening now.

  The planetary cartographer shuttles were automatically carrying out their new highly advanced programming and new functions shifting over a region of the DP3 world.

  The world was like a dream world, and he realized some of the scientists might be even considering living on the world, to carry out research, and even as a sort of colony world, until they returned and got them, and he even felt ecstatic and safe on the unknown desolate world, away from Starship S1 and the DP2 extraterrestrial, as the starship was deadly beyond his wildest dreams and the DP2 extraterrestrial was virtually everywhere in his imagination, as the sightings and hideous deaths it had carried out were emerging everywhere, and there was not a place aboard it had not emerged, and senior officers had been killed hideously, and their plans to kill it, as well as defend themselves from it, were virtually ruined.

  It was virtually undetectable, and they could not return to the Earth with it, as it would destroy everything, and surely replicate itself, as they had seen in the flying saucer, and he thought they had given and were still giving the Earth information of it and the situation, it was being kept classified and he was sure that they could destroy the whole starship and it in deep space, as far away from the Earth if the situation got out of control, and deadly.

  There were even sightings emerging where there clearly had been no encounters, with members of the crew trying to persuade them to destroy it and carry out some last deadly action against it.

  The world surprised him and the rest of the crew, including in the other shuttles, was that they had actually put them on a world with an Earth environment, and he realized their mission and search of deep space could be different and even change in the future to something else, as they were sure they were searching for normal Earth worlds, and civilizations, and it now looked like they were searching for advanced ones, which was staggering, but again he realized it was for extraterrestrial civilizations.

  The darkening blue sky was ecstatic after being in space and confined for so long and he watched the Earth type sun going below the horizon and its last rays beam across
a stretch of golden sand, and he watched forms of fish swimming frantically through lakes of blue water.

  What had also surprised the officers who had chosen the world was signs of an ancient civilization had been detected, and their shuttle itself had detected buried away underground structures, but so far no signs of the builders were detected, and any major surface structures, but he was sure there would be, unless they had returned back to living in their natural environment, but the race might have vanished out of existence.

  The sun vanished deep below the horizon as they accelerated at hundreds of miles an hour, mapping and analyzing everything that it could detect, searching for anything of interest and different, and abnormalities, with the other shuttles at equal distances apart, with the starship monitoring everything from above, and he wondered if they could get the DP2 extraterrestrial down on the world and leave it there.

  There must be a way to communicate with it, as it was highly advanced, and persuade it that the world was better than their world, and the starship, and it would be eventually annihilated by them if it meant destroying the starship.

  Everywhere around the shuttle a mass of strange snowflakes appeared, and snow appeared on the ground, and a strange blizzard engulfed them, and deep snow over the ground, and though with all their technology the surrounding world seemed more dangerous everywhere, and Ripley realized that many aspects of the voyage were worse than the DP1 world mission, which still astounded him.
