Survive or Die

Survive the hunting of an alien during seven days.

Plot

🚨 SEVEN DAYS IN THE DARK A routine transport mission. A hidden passenger. A creature that should never have been aboard. 🚀 THE MISSION You are one of seven crew members aboard the ISV Horizon, a small civilian transport spaceship traveling through the endless darkness of space. The mission was supposed to be simple: deliver the cargo, reach the destination, and return home. No one expected the ship to become a prison. 🧬 THE HIDDEN CARGO One member of the crew made a secret deal. For a fortune, they smuggled an unknown alien organism aboard the ship, hidden from the captain and the rest of the crew. The creature was supposed to remain contained. ⚠ CONTAINMENT FAILURE The alien is free. And now it is hunting. 👁 THE HUNT BEGINS At first, there are only strange sounds. Missing equipment. Power failures. Movement in the ventilation shafts. Then the first crew member disappears. The truth becomes impossible to ignore: You are not alone on this ship. ⏳ SEVEN DAYS UNTIL RESCUE The captain sends a distress signal. A nearby spaceship responds. RESCUE ETA: 7 DAYS Seven days until help arrives. Seven days trapped inside a damaged spaceship. Seven days with something hunting you. 🛠 SURVIVE OR FIGHT BACK The ship is your battlefield. Repair damaged systems. Search abandoned sections. Create defenses. Protect your crewmates. Investigate the alien's weaknesses. Uncover the truth behind the smuggling operation. You can hide from the creature... Or you can try to kill it. ⚔ The alien is intelligent. ⚔ It learns from your actions. ⚔ Every mistake makes survival harder. ⚠ TRUST NO ONE The alien is not the only danger. Someone brought it aboard. Someone lied to the crew. Fear spreads faster than the creature itself. Allies may break. Secrets may surface. Desperate people may make deadly choices. 🌌 SEVEN DAYS. ONE SHIP. NO ESCAPE. Survive until rescue arrives... or become another victim lost among the stars.

Opening scene

# DAY 1 — THE ESCAPE The stars outside the viewport are endless. Silent. Beautiful. Unforgiving. The ISV Horizon has been traveling through deep space for nineteen days. It is a small transport vessel, nothing impressive compared to the massive colony ships that cross the galaxy, but it is reliable. The crew of seven knows every sound the ship makes, every vibration from the engines, every flickering light in the corridors. This was supposed to be just another routine delivery. Seven more days until reaching the destination. Seven more days until everyone goes home. At least, that was the plan. --- The first sign that something is wrong comes during the night shift. A warning alarm echoes through the ship. Not a major emergency. Just a small systems alert. A damaged sensor. A power fluctuation. Something that should be easy to fix. But then another alarm activates. And another. The cargo bay doors open. No one gave the command. --- When the crew arrives, the scene makes everyone freeze. A reinforced containment unit lies shattered on the floor. The cargo inside is missing. The security cameras are damaged. The air feels colder than it should. Something escaped. Something that was never supposed to be on this ship. --- The captain immediately orders a full lockdown. Every door seals. Every corridor becomes a possible hiding place. The crew searches the ship, trying to understand what happened. But one question keeps repeating: Who brought it aboard? --- The answer is not found. Instead... A sound comes from somewhere inside the walls. A metallic scrape. Slow. Heavy. Moving. Everyone stops. The ship suddenly feels much smaller. --- The captain sends an emergency distress signal. Static fills the communication system before a response finally arrives. A nearby vessel has received the message. They are coming. But the distance is too great. The reply is clear: **Estimated rescue arrival: 7 days.** --- Seven days trapped in space. Seven days with an unknown creature hunting inside the ship. Seven days before help arrives. If anyone is still alive. --- The captain gathers the remaining crew in the main control room. Everyone looks exhausted. Everyone is afraid. Some are looking for weapons. Some are demanding answers. Some are already blaming each other. And somewhere in the darkness of the Horizon... Something is watching. --- You stand among the crew, knowing one thing for certain: The mission is no longer about delivering cargo. It is about survival. **What do you do?**
