Abduction.

Date: January 6, 2231.
Time: 11:35 p.m.
Incident +6 weeks, 18.25 hours.
Location: Hive. LV-1201.
6km northeast of the Forward Pods.
-----------------------
Dr. Eisenberg and Rykov are in the Queen's chamber, right in front of her, with a Marine and an Exosuit.
Eisenberg: Advance, soldier. Let us make the situation clear.
Marine: You sure this is safe?
Eisenberg: She understands survival. Squad four, report.
The scene cuts to a tunnel in the Hive, where drones and runners attack a few synthetics and sentry guns.
Synthetic: Heavy resistance, Doctor. We are ready to seal, however.
The scene cuts back to the Queen’s chamber.
Eisenberg: If I am correct, that will not be necessary. The flame!
Marine: Yes, sir.
The Marine shoots fire from the flamethrower over the Queen. She screeches in pain, and we can see the drones and runners are retreating from their attack.
Eisenberg: Squad four. Report please.
Synthetic: Doctor. We are experiencing something unusual here. The Xenomorphs are pulling back.
Eisenberg: You see. Survival.
The Queen hisses. Back at the tunnel, the drones and runners advance upon the synthetics and sentry guns again.
Marine: Reports of renewed fighting, sir. Shouldn't the drones be pulling back now?
Eisenberg: Something's wrong.
Marine: Sir, we've got to get out of here now.
Eisenberg: Stun her.

We have long planned for a Large Mass Specimen Extraction (LMSE) targeted at the rarer Xenomorph species within the Hive. The loss of our archeological expedition, while unfortunate, forces our hand. I have assured the Colonial Marine Major that the LMSE is the perfect operation to distract the Hive so that his team can rescue our companions safely. To eliminate confusion on this, forward any Marine questions to me immediately.
* The humans are trying to blow up the Hive to cut the Empress off from her minions. Eliminate the bombs and the humans who placed them.
* Beware the combat synthetics. They emit no pheromones.
You start this level outside the Hive. Watch out for the pod-like plants, as they shoot out toxic spores that hurt you. Head forward and avoid the plants, but you can claw them if they get in your way. You'll reach the steaming entrance to the Hive. Crawl inside and go through the tunnel. As you exit this tunnel you'll see three Aliens run to the left. Follow them and pounce past the sentry guns as they are distracted in shooting the other Aliens. Quickly destroy the two synthetics here and ignore the technician for now. You will hear a beeping sound, that's the bomb. You need to destroy it quickly, so look for it. It looks like a few sticks on dynamite with a box near it and a red light. Claw it for a while to destroy the timer on the bomb, then headbite the technician.
Continue through the hall and you'll see a few Aliens come out from a hall to the right. Follow them to a synthetic, destroy it, and continue along this path, as you will now hear the familiar beeping of a bomb. The two Marines near the bomb can easily and quickly be killed with your claws, then destroy the bomb before killing the technician. Continue through the hall into the huge open room. Be careful as there are two sentry guns on the other side.
In the center of this room there is a huge hole. Drop down into it and make sure to land on the large platform through its middle. Walk towards the end of this platform and drop down, there is a small tunnel here. Go past the three hibernating Aliens and use night vision to navigate the rest of the tunnel. You will emerge in the Queen's chamber, but only her egg sac remains. Kill the Marine here and headbite the technician if you need health. Continue through the tunnel here and it leads to another bomb, guarded by a synthetic and two Marines. Take care of them quickly and destroy the bomb, then kill the technician. Follow the path along to find another Synthetic and two harmless sentry guns. Before you enter the small tunnel at the end of this path, stay to the left side of the wall to avoid being shot at by a third sentry gun. Continue into this tunnel to end the level.
