2.0

The “reveal” at the end is basically spoiled by the title. It’s a lot of book to go through pretending you don’t know that the demons are aliens.
Also if you’re going to play with refugee fear in the Alien context, it feels like it would be a natural leap to use chest bursters as stowaways on the refugees.
