Trial of the Champion: A Predator/Prequel Novella

David Zielinski didn't find a Predator ship. It found him.

The helmet fits. The weapons answer. The counter reads 0 of 6.

To survive the xenomorph hive hunting him, he has to learn to think like a Yautja. Not just shoot. Hunt. Trap. Take trophies.

The first kill was a Queen. Five more remain.

This is his trial.
