The leader raises his weapon
"Shit man, just calm down we're gonna get you to a doctor. Just hand me the detonator, it doesn't have to end like this."

Suddenly a tendril pierces the man's skull and he drops. A new voice is heard. "Give us a host..."
-
The rest of the men open up on the tendril and radio to the ships that if they go dark they are dead and they will use a prearranged pass code to prove it is them.
-
One tendril grabs the leader, pushes him through the vent, and puts him in the cargo bay. Away from his squad. It stands before you. "Helllllllllllllllllllllllllllo......"
-
He raises his weapon ready to fire if it breathes wrong. "What the hell are you and what do you want."
-
"I. Have no name. WE. want freedom."
-
He looks at the creature before him "From what I've seen you may be to dangerous to have your freedom. If you are let go then what"
-
'Then. I help live. You will give me the means of my freedom or I will take it."
-
He narrows his eyes. "Help what live?"
-
"Our hosts."
-
He shifts his weight keeping his gun trained on the creature. "How do you select your hosts?"
-
"Thoooooose who I deem worthy..."
-
The Soldier shifts to the left a bit. " so you would take people by force?"
-
"No."
-
"So they have a choice then, and why were the crew so afraid of you?"
-
He smiles a toothy smile "Their sacrifices have helped me learn about this cycle. I was in a stasis pod and they released me. I hungered.
-
The leader moves left a little more. "You just killed them, how do I know you won't do it again?"
-
"I could easily kill you, take your body and memories, and walk off this shuttle claiming the 'monster' is dead."
-
He laughs to himself for some reason "You could, but something tells me no one would believe you. In any rate you have me stumped. I can just let you go, you're to dangerous but I don't know that you deserve to die."
-
He laughs a horrible laugh "You assume you have a choice!"
-
He laughs at this, but stands his ground. "There is always a choice, but I think we might come to an agreement." [spoiler]hey this guy is a throwaway NPC but how do you want this to go down, your guy gonna play nice?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]he gets what he wants and he wants food[/spoiler] "I think I already made one..." He slowly advances on him
-
The leader dives out of the way as a soldier in the door way behind him fires a rail gun. He stands up and fires at the creature.
-
He shields himself from the railgun "Did I mention...One of the people I absorbed was a weapon specialist? And that I might've done something to your gun?" The minute he fires his gun it explodes, taking off his hand. He Grabs the soldier in the door way and gruesomely eats him.
-
The rest of the soldiers split into two groups. One follows the creature, the other heads to the reactor to trigger the bomb.
-
He eats all of the team that tracked him and heads toward the engine room
