The character Vasquez's luck would eventually run out along with the ammunition of her rifle.

Shooting one of the alien creatures dead with her pistol, her leg gets splattered with acid.

In the scene, a stuntman in an Alien costume was lowered by a harness onto her from one of the air vents, then promptly dispatched with a barrage of gunfire into its face. 

 

Before the remainining creatures in the shaft can get her along with Gorman who came back for her,  together they off a grenade.  

 

Jeanette had to get all slimed up and she decided that Vazquez rather than being scared would have been so angry that she was about to be caught and would be about to die 

 

 

1. When Vasquez's luck runs out in the film, however, she hardly falls over; rather, she claws, crawls and grimaces, blasting Aliens and grappling with one creature mano a mano before a grenade saves her from a serious case of indigestion. In the scene, a stuntman in Alien costume was lowered by a harness onto her from one of the air vents, then promptly dispatched with a barrage of gunfire into its face.
   It was a juicy scene in more ways than one. "I had to get all slimed up," she grimaces. "I think Vasquez is just so angry that it has finally gotten her. Rather than being scared, she's pissed off she's about to die."  (Viva Vasquez: Starlog Jenette Goldstein Interview 1987 Copied from https://archive.org/details/starlog_magazine-115)
