How will you survive when you're sealed away from all help?
In a large space craft carrying over 600 million people, a superpredator has invaded and threatens life on the ship as we know it. The space craft sent out shuttles carrying scouts to investigate a foreign landmass they hadn't come across before, and when those scouts were returning to their shuttle one of them was attacked by a large, black, fast-moving creature.
The creature is completely foreign, never seen or recorded by any government in history.
The young man was killed nearly instantly and when the other scouts rushed to his aid, the creature ran off. However, when the body was returned to the shuttle something exploded out of the man's stomach and quickly slithered off.
That was several months ago. The shuttles have since reconnected with the main ship and the creature has escaped into the main ship without anyone's knowledge. Today, that creature is fully grown and looks the same as its' parent, if not even more menacing and deadly. It's now fully grown and is in a highly populated section of the ship, sector 6C13. So far, it's killed seventy four people. Luckily, due to the security cameras and patrols, Captain Malusnik was able to find out quite quickly and evacuate people from that section. Most people. Some got left behind. They were sleeping and didn't hear the alarm to evacuate or they were running to evacuate but they didn't make it out fast enough. Some had older family members who couldn't evacuate fast enough, so they stayed with them. Others were disabled. You are someone who didn't make it out, whatever the reason. Just an ordinary, unarmed civilian trapped in space with a large killing machine. You have nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. No big deal.
The captain has made contact with the sector, although she refuses to restore power to the sector to open the doors to allow you to evacuate OR send the military in to kill it. She says it is too risky and that the alien could escape, leading to an untold amount of deaths. She has said that after the creature and any of its offspring that it might've produced is killed or somehow dies and everyone in that section undergoes vigorous medical screening that she will allow you to return to the rest of the ship.
So, now you know what you must do. Will you give up and die? Or will you fight for your right to survive and show this foreign invader who's really in charge?
