Writing my own sequel to ALIEN

MemberOvomorphMay-30-2017 2:08 PMFor a while now I have been trying to think up a story for my own concept sequel to the original ALIEN. I have thought of the story and I now have begun writing up the story.
Here is the plot: Whilst on mission, the crew of the USS Poseidon discover what they think is a new life form, but little do they know that this life form, does not come in peace.

MemberPraetorianMay-30-2017 2:55 PMHi xenofanlv426. Great to see another writer delving into their own Alien fan fiction!!
There are quite a few of us here working on our own stories, all unique and from different times and locations in the franchise.
There is a great community here to help inspire and critique each others work. We all posts excerpts, snippets or full chapters periodically. Would love to read what you have, when you are ready to share.
Blackwinter-witch has a fantastic finished short-story set in the Prometheus/Covenant time. See below

MemberChestbursterMay-30-2017 5:04 PMI've been thinking about putting together a short story and then adapting that into a screenlpay. My own Alien universe adventure, but go all out in developing the story on paper. Keep us updated xenofanlv426! I can;t be sure, but I think there is a thread or area on the site for fanfic links and what not, so if you find it, post it when it is done!

MemberPraetorianMay-30-2017 5:10 PMTY for mentioning my story!!
There's stories here that are very well written, and I will be establishing a Thread where all the information is centralized.
I am glad you and cuponator3000 are inspired to write in the ALIENverse!! It's good to see and who knows? Maybe FOX will see something amongst the works we fans do and Option something from among them?
Writing isn't easy, but it is worth the effort. :)

MemberOvomorphMay-31-2017 2:45 AMThanks everyone. When the story is finished i am gonna try and write it into a script, when it is done i'm gonna send it to a few of the actors of alien covenant and see what they think of it. maybe they can show Ridley Scott it and maybe make it into a film.
I am planning on writing two more, both will take place after ALIEN 3 but i am going to wait until we see what happens to David in the other prequels.
will be posting new things soon based on the story.

MemberDeaconJul-25-2019 8:10 AMOnce again i have to thank SPAM for Bumping a Topic i missed.
I think Certainly there is Potential to have a Sequel to ALIEN, and one that does-not contradict ALIENS. With the Prequel Route of ALIEN Covenant which appears to Indicate that as of 17.5 Years prior to ALIEN the Derelict and Egg Cargo will NOT have been on LV-426. We dont know HOW the Prequels would End...
But it appears that as of the Year 2105 there is NO Crashed Ship on LV-426 that leaves under 18 Years for the event that leads to the Derelict to Transpire.
This Potentially means the Derelict could have only been on LV-426 for like 5-10 years prior to the Nostromo being re-routed to the Location, to carry out Special Order 937 it is possible HAD the Prequels concluded we would have some idea of what Triggered had Special Order 937
How does this relate to a ALIEN Sequel.... well we have to Wonder about Special Order 937 and having issued this Order and the Failure to Carry it out in ALIEN, we have to ask would the Company just simply Give Up?
So we have always had to ASK.... how come between sending the Nostromo to LV-426 and the Set-Up of Hadleys Hope how come they Never Went Back?
The Plot of Alien Covenant and its Advent Viral Video would indicate the Company would know quite a bit about the Xenomorph and Eventually LV-426 in order to issue Special Order 937
This leaves a few Avenues to Explore but as we DONT know how the Prequels would conclude what happens to LV-223, Planet 4 and Origae-6 plus any other Worlds/Events that Transpire Connected to the Xenomorph and David.
There is ONE avenue that we know 100% what Transpired and that is we are left with the Derelict and Special Order 937 in the Year 2122
So when we come to ALIENS we see in the Extended Cut the Jordons are sent out to Investigate a Area of LV-426 and come across the Derelict.
We see the Jordan's appear to Enter from the Same Side that the Nostromo Crew had, only there is Damage to the Area the Jordan's pass through. Its hard to make out HOW MUCH of the Derelict is Damaged but Certainly the ARM Section to the Left is INTACT.. the Scene is Foggy and so we cant see the FULL SHIP... but Certainly the Entrance Point appears Damaged in a way that would indicate the Damage is NOT on a Large Scale. (Externally).
What can cause such a Hole, yet NOT effect the External Area or so it seems?
We could SPECULATE that some kind of EXPLOSION from inside could Cater for the Hole?
So this leaves it open to Wonder if another Mission had gone to LV-426 and gone to the Derelict and at the Climax a Explosion had Occurred from inside... maybe likely a Attempt to BLOW the Ship Up?
This Speculation does give us a Avenue to Explore such a Event in a ALIEN Sequel ;) which likely means some kind of Cover-Up Conspiracy after.
