Shadow of Sin

[Father Nurgle]

"good very good!" Infernus yells as he fires his bolter. "we need to find a room that has one entrance!" He says. "lets back track!" he begins to move backwards and the group follows, he then turns around to face the dimly lit passage ways and seeks out a medical bay. "keep following! the medical bay is down this hall! Near the end!" Infernus yells to the group as he hears them behind him...


(just a tiny walk as i lead the group down a hall and you guys are walking backwards, flaming shocking and shooting anything that gets close.)

[hivefleetcollossus]

Grasping the injured specimen by the back of the neck and wrists, Brother Zepherinus slammed it into the wall a few times to disorient it. He looked to Infernus and nodded in agreement. With help from the other Terminators (Zepherinus had both hands free again), Seth & Nomoar, the specimen was firmly confined in a mobile restraint. They simply crossed its arms across its chest, bent & crossed its ankles and held it face down by the wrists & ankles. This manner of prisoner transport has been used for the past 40 millennia, & has proven to be the safest way to confine and transport live prisoners. As they stepped out of the engine room. Zepherinus grabbed the fallen Terminator and dragged it with one hand, Malachi also used one hand to drag out the fallen Terminator. Both Blood Angels used the free hands to fire their Storm Bolters into the frenzied Genestealer gathering. Once they have all passed the threshold, Zepherinus shouted though the chaos "Infernus, reseal the bulkhead!"

[Father Nurgle]

"got it!" He called as he fired his melta gun part at the controls on for the blast doors and the regular doors. slowly the large near unbreakable (save for a chainfist) door shut only letting 10 genestealers pass before severing the last once by the legs as it was a tad to slow before the door became a tight seal. that one was mopped up by the rest of the terminators. "lets go, we are here." Infernus said running up to a broken door. "any one want to open this without tearing it off?" he said as he tapped without intention at the dead door opener...

After having her face slammed in many times and then being tied to the point of barley moving small groans and shudders of pain escape Z's lips now and again. She comes around to hear the dying screams of her broodmate and she lets out a low wine of pity before focusing everything on communicating with her brood. SHe feel the connection in a fleeting way and the pain her body is in causes her to only connect for a second to the hive mind before losing it in another spams of pain. Then she feels it the severing of her connection to the hive no longer can she hear their whispers. She feels suddenley afraid and she starts trying her best to thrash and get out from her bonds. She lets out a scream in tyranid language for help.

[Fungus A]

Elecsus Stared blankly around, he heard the scuttling and growling of Genestealers in the corridors near him. In this claustrophobic environment, separated from his team, he felt the sudden urge to simply hide. Elecsus stood alone against an unseen foe, whom of which was prowling the corridors in search of him. He began to move slowly and quietly back wards, which is hard in tactical dreadnought Armour. Relief flushed over him when he heard the shouting of Zepherinus further down the corridor. He clumsily turned around and began to walk quickly towards where he heard the shouting, what he had forgotten was, that genestealers can hear better than he can. He was unwittingly in a race to reach his destination before the tyranids and not meet up with them along the way. His thudding boots dented the floor and shadows encircled him. He didn't seem to care, thud, thud, thud he went down the corridor, suddenly he heard the telltale sound of breathing through vox-comms. "Anybody!" He shouted towards Zepherinus and the rest of the terminators. He hoped they had heard him. But he was on the wrong side, the corridor ended where he was. "Anybody!" He shouted again, the sound of strained breathing was being heard again, being distorted and crackled through vox-comms. He had no choice and he began to punch claw and bludgeon at the wall, denting it and cracking it, it would take him mere minutes to break through it at this rate, although he was in a tight dead end, with tyranids following him. Ignorance is bliss. He fist slowly began to emerge on the other side, he began to kick and ram with his shoulders, just behind him, three genestealers proceeded to notice him and began to prowl on their gormless prey. Just as he managed to put his first leg through the gap, a mighty bulk leapt on him and began to tear through his armour, he yelled in pain and fell through the hole, sprawling and flailing, luckily the other terminators were now in the same room as him, but so were the genestealers...

(OOC: Please click this link and listen to the epic music that goes to this post as you read it.)

Zepherinus & Malachi propped the fallen Terminator against the panels below the broken display console. Brother Zepherinus (and the others of course) began systematically taking down the remaining xenos. All of Genestealers were still dead set on killing Nomoar, making him the center of most of the attention.
Zepherinus looked to Elecsus as he made his grand entrance. Then they both looked to the hallway he just came from. (:41 seconds into the song) A tide of claws and hunger hit with the force of a typhoon, completely enveloping the Terminators in xenos. For a few vital seconds the Blood Angels fought to regain their footing. The Genestealers were thrown in all directions as the Terminators burst to their feet once again. Nomoar swung his force weapon (a hammer, right?) near the makeshift entrance and slowed the tide by the incapacitated/dead xenos now blocking a portion of the entrance. Brother Zepherinus fought through the now abating xeno threat, to get near Nomoar and the others again. He shouted to Seth "Focus on the entrance!" Just as as he finished saying that he was swept under once again.

[Captain Malachi]

(OOC: Mina, I'm just used to roleplays where you'd get maybe one post from each person a week, and you'd likely have a conversation over PM to see if it's ok if another persons character opens the door when you knock. But meh, not really important, so I'll just leave it.
Cyc: Epic. That is all)

Elecsus came crashing through the wall and Malachi sighed in relief, only to turn in to a snarl of anger as he saw what was following him. Wasting no time, he brought his storm bolter up and shot the eyes out of the first genestealer, only to have to stop firing as they were too close for a gun fight. Resigning himself to the inevitable, he began to swing his powerfist with all his might.

Two of the xenos died nearly instantly, but there were just too many. He crushed anothers head, only to be jumped on by three more, if they didn't stem the tide soon, they were dead. "Brother Infernus, seal the breach!" He yelled, only half hoping the apothecary would even hear him over the din of battle. He saw Zepherinus get dragged down, but wasn't too worried, the old soldier had got himself out of worse. It was the prisoner he was more worried about, in all the confusion he couldn't even see it anymore.

Grunting, he tore the bowels out of another xenos and started moving over to where he'd last seen the prisoner, offering a quick prayer to the Emporer that she was still there.

[mina]

Feeling the connect of the hive mind again she silentley orders the genestealers near her to release her. They respond almost immediately and her broken arms are soon free of their bonds and her healthy arms soon follow. Unfortunetly the two that were helping her are soon crushed by a on coming powerfist and she's left to her own devices to free her feet. Her scything talons are working through the restraint as quickly as the can but it's much easier with two pairs of claws than one. It's a race against time as she is being told by many voices that one of the ugly ones is headed straight towards her. She frees herself and lunges at the marine next to her the one who captured her She mantains the form of a beautiful woman as her claws sink into his chest at least the last thing he see on this earth is a beautiful thing. You were a fool to try and take me . You should have run." She snarls and shoves her claws deeper into his chest.

Name: Brother Sargent Lionheart (The Bloodied)
Type: Terminator Sargent
Weapons: Power Sword & Storm Shield

Throughout history Lionheart has time and again proven himself as a noble warrior.
His might is second only to his loyalty. To know him is to respect him.
To oppose him is to know death. Many men tried, many men died.

Lionheart's vox caster was damaged by an early assault, leaving him cut off to the others audibly. Purity seals covered his armor & shield, swaying as he made his way down the narrow corridor. Every now and again he would hear what sounded like thunder. It was too far a way to know for certain, yet it wasn't a consistent sound like a generator. It was more like a powerful rumble that sounded without rhythm. The sound called to him, like the sound of war calls to every warrior. His hastened his pace. The silhouette of a Genestealer scurried in front of him, taunting him. His blood boiled as he fought his way in the labyrinth. The path was riddled with wreckage, & smelt of burnt flesh. This was the work of his Brothers. He was one the right path for sure. It was only a matter of time before they were once again reunited.

[Green Triangle]

Loki growled and left the broodlord to its own slaughter. She clung to a pipe running across the ceiling and scuttled across. She came to a change in the enviroment in the ship. She had been crawling through a dark, gunmetal grey interior. There was a a line that looked as if it had been welded and it attached to a dark, black interior. In the hundreds of years she had prowled this huk, she had never came across this ship before.

Loki growled predatorialy as she heard the sound of talking. It was not far off. The piping ended at the start of the black ship, so she droped off and hugged the shadows. She came to a corner and peeked around. Two Red Ones stood guarding. They must have checked their radars, because they suddenly let loose a volley of shells at her position. she ducked back around the corner and waited for the shooting to stop. She heard the distinc sound of a magazine being pulled out and a bolter slide being racked. One kepyt shooting, and she heard a click. One had jammed, the other was reloading. She seized her chance and ran from the corner, straight at the Red Ones. They cursed and before it knew what had happened, she had tore one almost in half. The other swung its powerfist desperately in her direction. The swing was easy to dodge and she tore the Red ones arm from its body. It dropped to its knees and she plunged her claws into its eye lenses. It rolled over and died.

She saw something dark moving further down the corridor. Loki knew it was no genestealer. A skull loomed out of the darkness and she felt almost as if it had invited her to attack it. But Loki was not brave. She was incapable of feeling fear.

She ran at the thing in the dark and raked at it with her claws. It easily smashed her aside and it moved into the light. The chaplain pointed its storm bolter at her and pumped round after round of mass reactive shells into her chitinous body. She did not feel any pain and staggered to her feet. She stumbled as more shells hit her, but she ran towards the chaplain and dug her claws into it. It dropped the storm bolter, and pushed its clenched fist into Loki's mouth, she bit down, but it was as if it had no effect. The chaplain unclenched his fist and tore the genestealers head in half. It set off to find more Blood Angels in need of saving.

The patriarch felt a wave of psychic agony and roared in hate, as his best purestrain was killed.

[Hellbreaker]

Realising that he was the target of the xenos, Nomoar moved away from the other Terminators. Killing xeno after xeno. Brother Zepherinus was overhelmed by the xenos. He was lost.
Once he was far enough away he swung his force hammer around himself, pushing away a couple of xenos and slammed it in the ground before him. A loud bang erupted from it. Lightning arced across the walls of the room, as if dancing. Nomoar was in a kneeling position, holding the hammer at floor level. There was a crater left, the xenos nearby scattered around, dead.

Nomoar's vision faded away, he froze, he couldn't grasp what he could see. A twisted face looked at him from across the darkness, grinning. Laughing and twisting.
It lashed out toward him, he screamed in pain. His hands, eyes, mouth and hammer glowing brightly, shedding light across the room.
Memories from several decades, even a century ago blurred across his eyes. His mind was burning. The daemon wouldn't let go, tightening it's grip on him.
With all of his remaining will power Nomoar managed to get away, releasing himself.
He collapsed on the floor, unconscious and seemingly dead.

(OOC: And that's what happens when you roll snake eyes! )

[Captain Malachi]

Malachi saw Zepherinus die, and watched as the librarian fell down, unconcious. His armour HUD told him that Nomoar was still alive, though barely. Instantly he made his decision, and ran towards the prone body of his brother, his superhuman speed carrying him there in nearly an instant.

His weapon barked, and a genestealer that had thought of Nomoar as an easy meal exploded in mid-air. Two more shots, and another genestealer fell to the ground, his head spread across the wall behind him. Crouching over the librarian in a fighting stance, Malachi vowed he would not allow another of his brothers to die to these disgusting aliens.

(OOC: HB, try not to get possessed and kill me, k? )

[mina]

She finishes killing the marine and then rips his chest plate off eating the juicy insides before Nomoar clears the space of many genestealers, at the same time she is hit by the pain of Loki's death and she stands snarling at them all her face covered in the blood of their brother," You are dead for that." She snarls as she takes Zeph's Hammer into her two good hands and leaps towards the downed psyker with a snarl and goes to kill him when a wave of psychic energy hits her and she collapses gurgling in pain. Obviously ,the Demon doesn't want her to eat his brains.

Name: Loricatus Saevio
Type: Chaplain
Weapons: Master Crafted Storm Bolter (it never jams and fires double speed) and a Master crafted powerfist (it is capable of incinerating enemies, if he grabs them with it). He has a Crozius Arcanum hanging rom his belt.
Description: Loricatus has served as a Blood Angels Chaplain for 134 years and is the master of close combat fighting. Enjoys cookies.





Loricatus shook some of the yellow ichor off his fist and picked up his storm bolter. He glanced around and checked through the comm net. Every channel was filled with the sounds of fighting and death. He grimaced behind his helmet as he heard a Marine shredded and screaming in agony. He started walking at a fast pace, almost running. He did not know where the fight was, but it wasnt going to come to him.

The sounds of battle were soon very close and Loricatus was thrilled to see some genestealers leap out in front of him. He pulled the trigger of his storm bolter and three genestealers were torn to shreds by a hail of shells. One got close and he grabbed it with his powerfist and it burst into flame. Loricatus tossed side its charred skeleton. He heard the sounds of men screaming and turned to a door, he could hear them behind it.

He hooked his strom bolter onto his belt and picked his Crozius from it. With a powerful swing, he smashed the crozius into the door, opening it a hands breadth. Through the gap he could see genestealers crowding around a Terminator, that stood over the fallen body of a librarian. Loricatus shouted out and kicked the door through. Genestealers splattered and were smashed to bits as he swung his crozius in deadly arcs and he made his way towards Malachi. 'What is your name, Brother?' he asked, inbetween killing genestealers. 'Malachi, brother ch-' Loricatus cut him off. 'We must get this Librarian out of this room, or he will not survive. Cover me.' He did not wait for Malachi to respond, and he picked up Nomoar, his armours fibre budles screaming in protest, and shouldered his way through the tide of deadly purestrains.
