5Phantom Genesis
Chapter 1: Beginnings
Outer Space, the vast expanse that surrounds Earth. To Humans, it was the unknown. They would often wonder if life was out there. They had no idea until they found it deep underground. The corporation known as Weyland Yutani had found, what they thought was, the first Ancient Temple. But as they went to explore it, they triggered something that would decide the fate of Humanity. They 'activated' this Ancient Temple and, unknowingly, released a powerful energy surge into space and awoken a deadly species. What they saw on their Satellite Imaging was something unbelievable. They saw smaller Temples also being 'activated' across the entire world. The Weyland Yutani Corporation had no idea what they had just done, but thinking that it was nothing they continued their quest in exploring the history and culture of the Temples.
The Weyland Yutani Corporation encountered Hieroglyphs within the Temples that explained its creation and purpose. Telling them that other lifeforms had come to Earth and taught primitive Humans how to function as a Civilization. But there was a dark side… They used Humans as cattle. They were used to breed the Ultimate prey, for the 'Hunters' to prove themselves as capable Warriors. Shortly after the Temple activations, Weyland Yutani encountered some form of Serpents and managing to capture some to study. But with victory came defeat… Exploration teams from other Temples were never heard of again, having been overrun by these creatures…
Awoken by the Human disturbance, the lead Serpent, the Empress began to create her spawn. She needed to escape her prison, but to accomplish this task would take time. Time that it did not have. The Empress needed to act quick, or those who enslaved it would come back. So it began to call towards her daughters, the Queens of the other Temples. Calling for them to multiply quickly with their best Warriors. Some of the Serpent Queens managed to escape from their Prisons, while others were enslaved by the Humans.
As this was all happening, the signal sent by the first, Main Temple arrived at its destination. The beings that received it immediately sent groups of their kind to go investigate the disturbance. These 'Hunters' were about to begin their hunt…
