Predator Middle Part 1: Dark and his squad along with the Celtic Squad, begin to observe the human base, and they notice the only entrance is were 3 APCs are exiting through a steel door, the only way into and out of the force field covered base. Celtic believes the humans should be eradicated, but Dark says they should be dealt with later noting that they can weaken both rivaling hives. Nevertheless, they both agree they need a way to get rid of that shield, and Celtic proposes blasting it with a powerful enough plasma shot, if they can angle their broken ship's gun in the right direction, and if it manages to work. They split up and keep exploring in groups of 2. fighting aliens and human patrols, who now have 1 or 2 synthetics with them.
Dark and his youngblood accidentally run into a badblood camp, and are engage by a 3 man badblood squad, Dark however proves his combat efficiency by killing one and severing another's arm. The leader of the group (who I call "Spartan"), ambushes and kills his youngblood. Enraged, Dark challenges him to a fight, the Spartan agrees, with Dark eventually gaining the upper hand, the Spartan begins to cower and cheat, as his comrades open fire interrupting the duel, the badblood flee to warn the base. Dark set a timer to dispose both bodies, and picks up his youngblood arm blade (chopper blade) before deciding it would be wise to retreat.
He regroups with the three squads, and tell them his information, he also catches a glimpse of the alien predator's blood, which is black (implying he is a super black predator, for which there is some prejudices among the pure breed in the society, as they were accepted only recently), Dark is angered that they would let such a filth in an important mission, but Celtic breaks them up. Dark and Alien exchange hateful glares.
