Newt is exploring. It had taken her a while to get up the nerve to leave either Ripely's side or the bedside of Hicks or Bishop. Luckily Bishop got fixed pretty quickly and so she'd had someone else to follow around like a small duckling for a while. He hadn't minded, neither had Ripley and they'd let her follow them around until she started to feel brave enough to venture outside their quarters and the med bay.

She knew they were worried too, she had a tracker on her arm again, just in case. But that made her feel safer so she didn't mind. She had tried to explore inside but there were lots of people....which was still weird...and she wasn't as good at slipping into the vents....yet anyway.

But there was also the fact that there was an outdoors. She'd never been allowed to play outside at Hadley's Hope. It had been just rocks and dirt. Here there were trees and grass.

Speaking of trees, she's trying to climb one right now, which is where you probably hear the rustling coming from.
