[ Author's note: the story is based on the picture you see on the cover. By the time it was written, no more info was given about it, nor Alien 5 itself was out, thus my imaginary went... places. ]
"You sure this will fit?" Ripley clarified, before they put on the head.
"Trust us, we're the scientists after all."
"When was the last time you wore any costume yourself? Do you even celebrate halloween?"
"Halo what?"
The suited woman sighed, as they did put on the last piece of the costume - the head.
If someone walked in right now, they'd be quite surprised to see a Xenomorph just chillin' there with humans, seemingly having a calm talk. Somehow.
The suit, made of quality chitin, was the closest humans could have ever gotten to emulating a real alien. Perhaps in some alternate universe, where Aliens were no more, then a science fiction, this suit would make a great movie prop.
"You can talk, and we'll hear you throught the microphone" one of the scientists began to explain, "But outside of the suit, you can't be heard. Unless you scream really loud, may be.
The suit is sealed by all means. Where the tubes are, we placed a good amount of oxygen. It means you can go swimming down any depth, or even to the outter space, for as long as you need, and you'll be safe. The filters can tell the difference, they'll re-charge whenever it's safely possible."
"What about my safety?" Ripley reasoned, "What if they smell that I'm the human? We don't know for sure how do they communicate, it could be telepathy for all we know. What if they suspect I don't speak... whatever their language is. If they have one..."
"Oh Ripley, please. They're more of animals, then intelligent!"
"Grooves could reason with you about it", the dressed one thought to herself, then spoke again, "Okay, say they somehow don't notice that I'm a human dressed as a xenomorph. Say, I fit in. How will YOU tell me appart?"
"By the build in mechanics, indeed. We have an indicator right here, and you have a micro-chip attached to the back of your - I mean, the Alien's head. It shouldn't be harder, then finding a pokemon in a Pokemon Go game."
Ripley let out a sigh, then sat down on all fours, in a cat way. Which, for a reference, is not too different from a xenomorph way.
"So, when do we begin the experiments?"
"Soon, Ripley" said one of the Scientists.
"Soon, Ripley" Doctor Grooves whispered, as he watched the preparations from the hidden cameras, "Very soon, my dear."
[Now You decide, dear Reader, should this story go on?]
[Yes] [No]
