''You awake from cryostasis in your Standard Military CS Uniform, yawning as you stretch out the
rigidness that can come from staying in one position for so long. You look around, noticing you’re aboard the faithful vessel with its dreary grey walls, the USS Sephora. You shake your head briefly and look around, watching as the other marines follow the same routine and march outside the sleeping quarters. Following your fellow comrades to the preparation rooms to gear up and head to briefing, you wonder what kind of grunt work they’re shoving you into you to this time…''
Totally not copy-pasted from wiki
''As you sit down in briefing, you notice a lifeless stare from your SL, you can't find humanity in his eyes''
''You shake your head, disoriented, as you notice the Commander entering the room''
Commander: ''ALRIGHT! I hope you shits had enough of your beauty sleep, If you ain't wearing your uniform AKA Panties right now, i'm gonna beat you up!''
''You Shrug''
Commander: ''As you might have heard before, The USS-Sulaco has gone dark, and High-Command recently received a Emergency Message from the Commander, apparently they are having problems with some wildlife, for the Sulaco to be wiped out by animals, they probably tested if they could complete an operation with rocks instead of rifles''
''All of the marines in briefing laugh, with the exception of your SL, keeping his dead-like stare''
Commander: ''Alpha squad is docking with the Sulaco by the cargo bay, Bravo will stay in the Sephora, and will only be used of shit hits the fam.. or fan... whatever! Delta is going to use the umbillical to reach the outer airlocks of the Sulaco, now, go kick some ass and make me proud!''
''As you were part of the Alpha Squad, you and your battlebuddies entered a flat-like shuttle, you notice that your SL has already been there, before the Commander even dispatched the rest of the marines from briefing''
''You pass the rest of the ride looking at your SL, you notice in that short period that he didn't even eated anything since cryo-sleep and haven't blinked a single time yet''
''In a few moments, Helljumper starts landing in the Sulaco's hangar''
''As the shuttle docks with the Sulaco, your SL walks out of the shuttle first, the whole hallway is covered in black plants, as your SL walks away directly to the west of the shuttle''
''Before you notice, your SL has disappeared in the hallways''
''You hear a loud, sharp hissing coming from west, the direction your SL disappeared''
HISS!!
''Your squadmates looked terrifyed, as the hissing came closer, they then started blind shooting the hallway''
''A huge swarm of black, armored creatures has appeared, flooding the room with bullet casings, you unload a magazine on them along with your fellow marines''
''Someone knocks you uncounsious, with something blunt in the middle of the fight''
''You wake up in a bed, trying to understand where you are while your head feels numb and painfull''
''Your SL appears from a corner''
Alpha SL: ''Wonderfull, you are awake''
Alpha SL: ''I believe i owe you some answers...
Alpha SL: ''. . . I'm an Android''
''You gasp''
Alpha SL: ''... Come with me, i need to show you something''
''You see no options, other then following him''
''He leads you to a room full of weird loking eggs, nasty''
Alpha SL: ''I know this sounds crazy.. but i'm here for Weyland-Yutani interests...They sayed i need to show you a.. thing.. and then they will personally explain what's happening for you''
''You don't see any viable options again, other then doing what he says''
''He walks through the egg field, pointing at one of them right next to you''
Alpha SL: ''Do not worry, they are harmless''
''Your skin gets pale as the egg opens it'self''
Alpha SL: ''I suggest you don't get too close''
''A crab frantically jumpes at your face while using it's tale to suffocate you!''
Alpha SL: ''I must be honest, i can't believe you felled for it.''
''You suddenly falls to the floor, falling uncounsious''

I play Sydney 'Lilly' Wood, the totally not depressed doctor, And the marine Dylan Bell, that probably joined the USCM by accident.

Re: Sephora's Doom
In honestly, the story moved very quickly with little to no development.
Your Squad leader just reveals that he's an Android? And the fact a Staff Sergeant is an android? All marines start from private. And all of them have to go up the ranks. Even the commander. The words used are pretty less then optimal for the damn marines. "I'm going to beat you up"? Come on man. Everyone knows that the marines would have said "I'll kick all of your sorry asses if you managed to mess this up." Also, how you board the Sulaco is inaccurate to the lore. That's technically fine, but in reality you would use the Umbilical cord docking system.
Don't worry story writing isn't for everyone, hell it's probably not for me. I just like doing it. Anyone and everyone can improve.
Also, how it's written is off for a story. Everything is separated? Instead of actually making it a story it ruins the flow of a story in my opinion. It looks like just start and a pause. Like a sentence, but it feels less of a good flow. If you've read a novel you probably can get a good idea on how to write. And honestly that's where I get my skill. Anyway. You can and will get better.
