Predator Mission 1
Date: November 25, 1730
Time: Unknown
Location: Somewhere on LV-1201
500 Years before the Incident, the Predator lands on Planet LV-1201 in his
spacecraft to hunt Aliens. While wandering around on the surface of the planet,
the Predator follows some Aliens to the hive and after a bit of exploring, he
discovers a strange object. Soon enough the Predator learns of a strange
Artifact built by these so-called Pilots which can control the Aliens. The
Artifact is currently disabled when he gets to the Artifact Chamber so he must
find a way to activate it. When he gets to the Artifact Activation chamber, he
presses a few buttons and pulls a few levers and the Artifact is activated,
giving him the power to influence Aliens. When the Artifact was enabled, an
invisible force-field was also activated, preventing Aliens from coming any
where near it and kills those that do.

Predator Mission 2
Date: July 25, 1731
Time: 7:10 PM
Location: Near Artifact Chamber
During the eight months, other Predators arrive at the planet to explore and
establish themselves. On one particular day, other Predators went to
investigate the Artifact Activation Chamber while the main Predator went on
hunt for the Alien Queen. After getting so close to the Queen's nest, the
Aliens retaliate and disable the Artifact so the Predator is called back to the
Artifact Chamber to defend it from Aliens. The Aliens kill all Predators in the
Artifact Chamber and it's up to the main Predator to reinstate the stasis
fields so he makes his way to the Egg Chambers to try and activate the stasis
fields.

PredAlien Mission 1
Date: July 25, 1731
Time: 8:15 PM
Location: In a tunnel near Pilot Ruins
During the retaliation of the Aliens, a lone Facehugger makes its way through
the Zeta Hive, somehow avoiding all nearby Predators. While ducking and diving,
the Facehugger cannot facehug any of the Predators along the way because they
are in groups. So it must find a suitable host, preferably a Predator who is
alone. With help from some Drone Aliens to distract the Predators, the
Facehugger manages to crawl through shafts and above ceilings avoiding the
Predators. Eventually the Facehugger arrives at the Egg Chamber where it sees a
lone Predator trying to reinstate the stasis fields. The Facehugger jumps down
into the Egg Chamber and pounces towards the Predator...

Predator Mission 2
Date: July 25, 1731
Time: 9:20 PM
Location: Egg Chamber
While trying to reinstate the stasis fields, the Predator accidentally triggers
the stasis fields but has enough time to turn around and spot the Facehugger.
With the Facehugger in mid-air, the stasis fields freeze everything including
the Predator and the Facehugger. Somehow, the Facehugger manages to implant the
Egg but as the Facehugger dies, unknown to the Predator, he is carrying the
egg. As the centuries go on, the Predator is still trapped waiting for someone
or something to free him but 500 years later, there is someone on their way to
free him...

Corporate Mission 1
Date: September 21, 2230
Time: 7:06 PM
Location: Forward Observation Pod 5
Around 500 years later, General Rykov and Dr. Eisenberg learnt of this Artifact
and sent in a team of Combat Synthetics to retrieve the Artifact.
Unfortunately, they didn't make it to the Artifact and were killed by many
Praetorians. At the present time, Rykov calls Dunya in to explain to her the
situation they're in and tells her that he has found a buyer for the Artifact
and Dunya is the one who has to go to the Pilot Ruins and find the Artifact.

Corporate Mission 1
Date: September 21, 2230
Time: 11:40 PM
Location: Entrance to Zeta Site
Popov, another corporate, transports Dunya and two Iron Bears in an APC to an
entrance to the Zeta Hive and it's here where the journey starts. The two Iron
Bears escort Dunya to an elevator which takes them down into the Alien Hive and
while defending Dunya from the Aliens, the two Iron Bears are killed. It's now
down to Dunya alone to retrieve the Artifact. She rushes through passageways,
avoiding Aliens and she eventually arrives at the Artifact Chamber. Other
Aliens are unable to come into the Artifact Chamber so Dunya is safe for the
time being. Rykov speaks to her via the walkie-talkie, telling her to find a
receptacle to disable the Artifact. Dunya finds the receptacle and places the
disruption device, given to her by a scientist, into the receptacle and that
disables the Artifact. After a long time of waiting, the online Pilot systems
shut down but also causes damage to the entrance of the Artifact Chamber so
she's forced to find an alternative route...

Predator Mission 2
Date: September 22, 2230
Time: 7:32 AM
Location: Egg Chamber
By Dunya disabling the Artifact, the Predator who was frozen in the stasis
fields, is now freed after 500 years of been trapped. The Predator rushes to
the Artifact Chamber via an Alien tunnel and arrives on a very high platform
just in time to spot Dunya steal the Artifact. After Dunya leaves, the Predator
must chase after her to return the Artifact but a group of Aliens surround the
Predator. These Aliens prove no problem for the Predator and continues through
the Pilot Ruins behind Dunya.

Corporate Mission 1
Date: September 22, 2230
Time: 7:46 AM
Location: Artifact Chamber
Dunya climbs up to a platform above in the Artifact Chamber and continues
through many doors and killing many Aliens. She eventually gets to a control
room which was probably built by the Predators and takes an elevator up to a
platform above. After escaping Facehuggers and crawling under rocks, Dunya gets
to a room with skulls hung up on the wall which were trophies gained by
Predators of many different species. She exits the room and goes through
numerous doors and faces a powerful Praetorian which is no threat to her. After
avoiding a few Facehuggers, she exits Zeta site and emerges into open air where
she is given new objectives.

Predator Mission 2
Date: September 22, 2230
Time: 7:48 AM
Location: Artifact Chamber
As soon as Dunya leaves the Artifact Chamber, the Predator jumps down onto the
platform below and follows Dunya. Traveling through passages and killing
Aliens, the Predator soon gets to the control room with an elevator. Since
Dunya took the elevator, the Predator must find a different way to get to her
so he jumps up onto platforms below and through a window. On the ground below,
Dunya has just gone through a door but the entrance has been blocked so the
Predator has to go a different way. He goes into the trophy room and jumps up
onto platforms and over the wall just behind Dunya. The Predator manages to
fend off Aliens long enough to make it out of Zeta site through the same door
as Dunya. After Dunya makes her way to Pod 5, the Predator somehow manages to
get to Pod 5 but it is unknown which way he went.

Corporate Mission 2
Date: September 22, 2230
Time: 9:34 AM
Location: Exit of Zeta Site
When exiting Zeta site, Dunya receives a call from Rykov telling her where the
APC is so she now has to make her way to the extraction zone to be picked up.
The APC has activated its locator so it appears on Dunya's Motion Tracker to
make it easier to find. She travels by foot along the surface of the planet
meeting Runners, Drones and Facehuggers and indigenous creatures. While
traveling through winding paths, Dunya finally gets to the APC and Chekov is
there to pick her up. In the APC, Dunya tells Rykov that his suspicions were
right about some other species using the Artifact - the Predators.

Predator Mission 3
Date: September 22, 2230
Time: 11:16 AM
Location: The walkway connecting Pod 5 to the water pumping station
Just over one and a half hours later from leaving the Zeta site, the Predator
arrives at Pod 5. He gets to the top of a walkway where he finds an access
panel which he need to get through. The Predator pulls the panel off and throws
it off the platform to the ground and flattens an unfortunate human on the
crater floor. He climbs through the hole into Pod 5 where the mission begins.
First of all, the Predator needs to hack into the Pod's systems to find the
location of the Artifact. Along he goes through the narrow corridors killing
humans and eventually the Predator gets to a big boiler room where he kills two
Combat Synthetics. After exiting the room, he climbs up a ladder into a control
room. The creature kills all humans nearby and hacks into the Pod's system to
find the location of the Artifact. As soon as he knows it's in Storage Area C,
he climbs up the elevator shaft and hacks his way through the door into another
room. After a big fight between humans and Aliens, the Predator hacks into the
Storage Area to retrieve the Artifact...

Corporate Mission 3
Date: September 22, 2230
Time: 11:25 AM
Location: Pod 5
After resting in Pod 5 with Dimitri, Rykov contacts Dunya and tells her that
Aliens have breached the water walk. Rykov orders Dimitri to go to the water
walk to meet Chekov and tells Dunya to retrieve the Artifact so they can take
it to another pod. She goes to Storage Area C to check on the Artifact so she
sets out towards the Artifact. Aliens are already inside the pod but Dunya
makes it to Storage Area C in time to see a strange creature in the Artifact
room and then this creature disappears in front of her very eyes. Unknown to
her, it's the Predator who has turned invisible. Dr. Eisenberg has blown up the
walkways connecting Pod 5 to Pods 2 and 4 and she's now ordered to get to the
cargo lift in order to evacuate the pod.

Predator Mission 3
Date: September 22, 2230
Time: 11:40 AM
Location: Storage Area in Pod 5
After getting the Artifact, the Predator exits Storage Area C and goes in
search for a communications room to broadcast a message to any nearby Predator
ships. Other Corporates are killed but the Predator manages to get to an
elevator where he's taken up towards the communications room. Hurrying along
the corridors, he gets to the communications room and sends his current
coordinates to any other Predators nearby but during the process, the Predator
collapses to the floor in pain. The Alien egg planted inside him 500 years ago
by a lone Facehugger has hatched and a Chestburster breaks its way through the
Predator's chest, killing him in the process...

Corporate Mission 3
Date: September 23, 2230
Time: Unknown
Location: Storage Area in Pod 5
After been ordered by Rykov, Dunya sets on her way towards the cargo lift. She
exits the storage area and climbs up a ladders into a shaft. She climbs through
and goes through a door and encounters many Runner Aliens. These are no problem
for her and carries down the stairs into large cargo room. She runs down to the
level below and gets to the elevator. Just as Dunya calls up the elevator, a
sweep of Aliens crawl into the room but with the help of her weaponry and the
deployable Sentry Guns, she manages to fend them off. Off she goes down the
elevator to the cargo bay where she catches up with Rykov. Dimitri hasn't
returned since he went to secure the breach so Rykov presumes he's dead. Just
as they're speaking, Dimitri radios to Rykov so Rykov tells him that they're
evacuating Pod 5. Ivan, Chekov and Rykov take the cargo lift down to the crater
bottom while Dunya stays at the cargo bay to defend it until Dimitri arrives.
Dunya sets up her remaining Sentry Guns and uses the Turret Gun to kill any
Aliens flooding in. Dimitri eventually arrives and explains to Dunya that he
took a detour through excavation storage before going to the walkway and must
have just missed Chekov. They both go down the cargo lift to the bottom of the
pods where they catch up with Dr. Eisenberg.

PredAlien Mission 2
Date: September 22, 2230
Time: 12:05 PM
Location: Communications Room in Pod 5
After the Predator is killed, the Chestburster hides in the room and a
Corporate investigates to see what made the unauthorized broadcast. He radios
to a team about the mystery creature that's lying dead on the floor and tells
them that it was holding the Artifact. The Corporate exits the room but is
sadly killed by a Runner Alien. Now the Chestburster is born, it must avoid
enemies at all cost and find a food supply in order to evolve. The Chestburster
should have been enclosed in the corridors but the only explanation could be
that the guards on duty in the next few rooms must have been distracted and
opened the doors. The creature escaped the humans and made its way to a room
with a circular table. Humans came into the room and the Chestburster managed
to slip by the guard unnoticed. The creature makes its way to the cloak room
where an Alien helped it to escape. Along it goes above the ceiling and drops
down to the corridor. A few fully-grown Aliens distract nearby guards and the
Chestburster gets to the Pod 5 Morgue. In here it has a full food supply and
soon evolves into a more fiercer creature...

PredAlien Mission 3
Date: September 23, 2230
Time: 03:28 AM
Location: Morgue in Pod 5
A Corporate enters the Morgue after a while and radios to others that Aliens
are everywhere in the pod, but as he turns around, the evolvement of the
Chestburster is staring right at him. The PredAlien kills the Corporate and
escapes through a vent in the ceiling. Its mission at the moment is to escape
the pod but it does need to find the Artifact and return it to the Alien Hive.
The creature's intelligence is far superior than every imaged and it manages to
disable the Electrified Duct Control which shuts down electrified grates. With
the grates unprotected, it destroys Sentry Gun controls in the room nearby so
it slips in and goes through to a boiler room. The creature kills the humans
and eventually makes it onto the corridors. Even with Combat Synthetics on
guard, the powerful PredAlien kills anything in its path and gets to a large
pipe. It exits the pipe and wanders around Pod 5 and destroys a control panel
giving him access to further rooms. It crawls underground and emerges next to a
room near the Artifact.

After the Predator was killed, the Artifact must have been retrieved by a Drone
Alien which brought it to this room. It's not clear how the Drone Alien died
but Chekov sent a team to collect it. Ivan, Popov and a couple of other
synthetics arrive in the room to get the Artifact before Pod 5 is blown up.
Numerous Aliens are trying to get to the Artifact in the room next door and
Ivan and Popov leave the room before the first charges goes off so they go down
to the extraction point. Just as the two Corporates leave, the Aliens burst
through the door and the two Combat Synthetics try to kill them but are easily
killed by the Aliens. The first charges blow and kills the remaining Aliens in
the room so the PredAlien must abandon the Artifact before the whole of Pod 5
comes down. With the pod shaking, the PredAlien crawls up a shaft into a much
bigger room. It finds and destroys the Security Array Access panel and even
destroys to humans in Exosuits. In order to escape, the creature must find a
panel to disable the electric girders so it crawls up to a higher level power
room and disables them so crawls out of a shaft to exit Pod 5.

PredAlien Mission 3
Date: September 23, 2230
Time: 7:02 AM
Location: Somewhere aboard Pod 5
After retrieving the Artifact, Popov and a couple of Combat Synthetics were
killed which could have been caused by the many blasts or by Aliens. Other
Aliens including the PredAlien escape the pod by a beam on the top but where
the Artifact is, next to Popov, a Drone Alien appears next to it but it's too
late as Dr. Eisenberg makes his final order regarding Pod 5...

Corporate Mission 3
Date: September 23, 2230
Time: 7:02 AM
Location: Beneath the Forward Observation Pods.
Dunya wonders if there's any chance to save the pod but once the lift broke
away, there's no chance of regaining the pod so the only option is to destroy
Pod 5 before the Aliens find a way to spread to other pods. The question of any
survivors is ruled out by Dr. Eisenberg and he then orders the removal of Pod 5
from the rest of the pods.

Any Mission
Date: November 23, 2230
Time: 10:18 PM
Incident: -1 day, 7 hours.
Location: Primary Operations Complex, LV-1201.
Dr. Eisenberg and a scientist are talking about the loss of Pod 5 and the
scientist gets onto the possibility of "potential relics" going missing at the
Zeta dig site. Dr. Eisenberg replies by saying that nothing has gone missing
when he was on watch and the "relic" the scientist heard about was of little
importance compared to the knowledge, he's getting from xenomorph studies.

Predator Mission 3
Date: November 26, 2230
Time: 3:55 PM
Incident: +1 day, 11 hours.
Location: Somewhere near the Primary Operations Complex, LV-1201.
With the coordinates the Predator in Pod 5 sent, a couple of months later, a
Predator ship lands on LV-1201. Presumably, the ship contains many Predators as
a few were captured in AvP2 but one Predator comes to the Primary Operations
Complex and kills two guards. Note that I think this is the Predator you play
as, in Aliens vs Predator 2.

Conclusion
Date: October 12, 2230
Time: Unknown
Location: Gateway Station, Earth.
Weyland-Yutani Weapons Division, Oversight Committee, Summary of Meeting
Concerning the Loss of Pod 5.

The loss of Pod 5 is a significant setback for operations on LV-1201. Though
the pod contained only secondary systems, crew quarters and recreation
facilities, its loss serves to justify the concerns some committee members have
long felt regarding Dr. Eisenberg's oversight of the project. Rather than wait
for an official explanation from Dr. Eisenberg, the committee has authorized
the immediate departure of a class 2 investigative team and auditor for LV-1201
with the intention of conducting an independent investigation into the events
leading to the severing of Pod 5. Until more data is available the priority
must be stabilizing the situation on LV-1201 before any more mistakes are made.
