Alien Invasion: Swarm - Final Assault

Moments after the Aliens launched their final assault, I snapped this image of them exploding out of the open wormhole. It seemed--to me--that they were finally showing us their "True Colors." A gruesome combination of Crimson and Translucent Corpse-Green... the cross-hatch marks on what seemed now like bloodless-looking hunger-swollen lips had the sickening yellow-orange hue of a newly scabbing-over cut. --------------------------------- After the first 3 waves of deception and distraction, it's not hard to understand, really, why so many of our own species met this final assault-wave on their knees, arms outstretched, and with their eyes slightly closed and lips outwardly pursed... seemingly expectant of a warm embrace and a deep loving kiss... ---------------------------------
Such was our folly... as a swarm is a swarm after all. It has been demonstrated by our own beautiful bees many times throughout our own history with often shocking results. The Kiss of these "Godless Forked-Tongued Devils-in-Drag" (as they would become known to future generations) turned out to be French, followed by full penetration... and their promised embrace threatened to be eternal... ---------------------------------
But as it often is with the human species with respect to historical moments that threaten extinction, it wasn't the end at all... it would prove itself to be an opportunity for a brand new beginning, a fresh start... that is, after we'd suffered and survived almost 2 millennia as their slaves. But that is another story!
