Story Synopsis:

200 hundred years have passed since Ellen Ripley died on Fiorina 161. Aboard the medical research vessel USM Auriga, a team of scientists clones Ripley from her extracted DNA and removes the alien Queen embryo which was growing inside her at the time of her death.

In order to continue their experiments with the aliens, the scientists commission a crew of smugglers to bring them a shipment of "hosts" to be used to grow more aliens. The smugglers, the crew from The Betty, decide to stay aboard the Auriga where they discover the cloned Ripley. The new Ripley is made up of both human and alien DNA, resulting in heightened strength, a sixth sense about the aliens onboard, and acidic blood.

The aliens use their own acidic blood to escape from the laboratory and most of the military crew on board escapes leaving Ripley, the crew of The Betty, the medical officers, and one surviving kidnapped host behind. Dr. Wren reveals that he wants to continue his experiments and bring the aliens to Earth. Ripley convinces Call to set the Auriga to crash instead, heightening the need for the survivors to escape the Auriga.

Ripley feels that the Queen alien is in pain and she goes to see her. She finds that the Queen shares her own DNA and has become capable of giving birth. The newborn she delivers is an all new breed of alien/human hybrid which proves to be even more deadly than the others, including the Queen herself!
