ENTRY: I'm so sorry. Everything that could go wrong, went wrong. We thought we took all precautions. Limited personnel, top of the line training, scanning the dropship upon return after every evacuation run. We carefully followed every quarantine procedure to not have history repeat itself. But we underestimated these creatures. Let me be perfectly clear:
We underestimated them.
They are not animals.
They are not bioweapons.
They are a highly intelligent species who knows how to use their weapons tactically, and strategically. This isn't a pet species we can train to fight our wars against the UPP. It's a common enemy that would eradicate us all if it could.
Please, take us off of here and glass the planet afterwards. We cannot control it. We cannot even contain it. For the love of the Gods, please help us off here.
After Bishop initiated the emergency blowout of the lower decks, the ship lost connection to all 4 generators and lost all thrust. It cleared out all the aliens, but in return the derelict ship got caught by the planet's magnet field and was pulled in. The backup power and Bishop at the bridge made the landing survivable, but there's so few of us left now.
Please come pick us up. We have sent several emergency evac requests. Our coordinates are LV-420;28.535680, -82.651469.
It seems as if the Xenomorphs hitched a ride with the evac ships and able to survive in the thin atmosphere, hung on to the ships hull. One of them got inside the medical bay where it attacked the wounded, while several got inside the mechanical bay, probably sneaking along with vehicles saved from the colony. There they killed one of their own to let it's acid melt through the hangar door and breach the hull, so that more of them could get in. They spread fast like lightning and once we realized what had happened and started to evacuate, they had already started infecting more of us. Once we started to isolate parts of the ship and seal all ports including the air ducts, they broke into the cable tunnels and melted their way through.
This attack was planned and coordinated. They quickly learned about our weapon systems too. Out of the ships nearly 2000 crew, only round about 20 of us remain. Some of us are infected, including me. Without access to the medical bay we cannot perform surgery to take them out, but it seems as if strong sedatives and anti-parasite medications actually either stop or at least slow down their growth process, but we do not know about how much. We have put 7 infected into cryosleep while me and 2 other officers are taking the medications regularly, but I don't know how much time I have left.
Please, help us. Take us home. Follow full quarantine protocol. I pray to the Gods I will see you all soon.
I will not be giving further updates to the administrator.
Kind regards,
ADMINISTRATOR's NOTE: USM Corpus Christi and USM Envoy have been dispatched and should reach the LV-420 colony within a day or two. The orders are to shoot any xenomorphs on site except for the queen. Any survivors of USM Luna or the LV-420 colony shall be quarantined and secured until we can extract any egg or embryo that has survived the cryosleep. Ladies and Gentlemen of the board, I will see you all this Sunday when we will follow the retrieval operation live. This could be the final steps we have been waiting for.

Something lurks in the dark. Brooding. Waiting.
