Warhammer the untold [Strange]story

[blueayes]

Petitions for documents of all kinds were being sent thru every ship, anything from screws to the simple hand held protective talismans that the shipborne had were being requested.
It petition was simple, send in anything that can fend of the warp, don't give up your own protection, so feel free to copy whatever writing on your talismans and give us a description of what it does.

Objects such as statues-rings-necklaces and anything similar please put what they are made of and a pike of said object as well as what they are used for.

As a member of the Inquisition her loyalty was to the Emperor and by extent to humanity as a hole. Like it or not she was caught in several situations that were completely out of her control.

Any Inquisitor knew that these situations were nothing but death sentences, Tylor and Saitama had been separated and the plan to weaken the twos men had succeeded. Now however a problem had come up.

Reports had come up, apparently the two of them could communicate regardless of the distance, each move done by Saitama was seen by Tylor and if Tylor was in danger Saitama would know about it.

This was common knowledge to her, however this bit of information had caught the few people she had managed to gather by surprise. Then there was the issue about the new chain that floated alongside the captain.

Up until now he had used it for nothing more than to carry the woman that stuck around him, they all took advantage of its abilities, however there were the moments moments Tylor lowered his guard. More than one attack from a dart, las gun or even a regular blade was blocked by that chain, it was as if the cursed object was alive.

Time and time again she believed that the foolish man didn't have a plan or any course of action, since they had left Cadia. Now however every move done, it was as if every step taken had been planned.

The beacons-the strange water world and even the gathering of the aliens.

Tylor seemed like he never truly had a plan, however there were those times, times when he was alone that anyone that looked at him could see his mind at work.

''Inquisitor a transmission has been sent to you'' a servitor walked up to her ''Do you wish to hear it.'' it said.

''Let's hear it'' man spoke

''Hey are you busy, anyway even if you are I need you to do something for me.'' the transmission sopd as the sounds of children laughing and running was heard. ''Anyway remember the beacon we left behind awhile back, well I need you too go back and secure it for the Union. Look I know what you're going to say but we're going to need to go back and secure the beacons. So any ship you need is yours as long as it's in the docking bay.'' statick now filled the room

''Oh and before I forget send in any aliens you meet. So please don't kill them for no reason. Listen if they don't attack and want to be alone leave them alone, if they attack and surrender enslave them for four years, if you crush them enslave them for ten years and if they join us just send them in.''

''Protect that beacon.'' Tylors words finally come to an end.

''Pas me thru that idiot'' she said

''Yeah'' Tylor answered

''If you want me to do that I need a real reason.'' she said\demanded, her words sounding harsh and unusually cold.

''The truth is that those beacons we left behind are attracting both unwanted and wanted attention. Lost people are being guided to alight where they can restart their lives, unwanted because opportunist will use them to attack the already weak and beaten.

There is also the other thing, we passed imperial strongholds, meaning that we will end up running into them. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say Inquisitor.'' Tylor finally finished explaining.

''I'll leave when I can however I want to be able to take those I deem useful for this'' she answered, her voice showing no signs of any form of changing her mind.

''Alright but you have to set up mid way stations both for military and trade purposes and….. I want you to keep this part between us, in case those beacons ever get blown up, make the stations reachable by ships without warp travel.

This is so those world won't ever be left defenseless or without food again. Yes I know you'll try and claim planets for yourself.' Tylor finished, before the clicking sound of him cutting of any form of response she might have had.

She was disturbed not because the man was already taking into account her every move, but already the response to several aliens and pirates. However there was something that were said in that short exchange.

It was almost as if tat man knew that she had been gathering a group to try and take the new empire being formed, so he simply sent them somewhere else. Still this did present an opportunity, there was a perfectly working beacon, that served both as means of communication-worked as a guide in the warp and was acting like a lighthouse continually attracting lost imperial ships.

Yes this was an opportunity, one that shouldn't be passed out. Afterall there really wasn't any reason to listen to the man and if he was willing to give ships-food and armament to the Inquisition. Then who was she to deny it to him.

[blueayes]

Deep within space dozens of lost ships with their crews ether dying, hopeless or simply lost found a small spec of hope. Like flies to a bright lamp they gathered, trillions of lives that once believed they were doomed to die of starvation soon found habitable worlds be them inhabited or not.

Unfortunately for the alien races that lived in the worlds, they soon became the food source to the crazed people of thece ships. Their starvation driving them into uncontrollable rages that push them forward, do to many of the aliens being unable to leave their worlds they soon began to fear and worship their new masters.

The Space Marines lost in their endless crusades, soon that their once lost paths now had a guiding light. So long had they traveled in the emptiness of the uncaring universe, that they all but lost faith of ever encountering the Imperium.

They soon found themselves surrounded by those they once believed, they would never see again.

They space marines however, immediately fell back in their training and began to secure the surrounding space near the beacons, any aliens encountered with space faring vessels were immediately eliminated, for the arriving Human ships to colonies their worlds.

However those still within medieval or lower technological levels were left alone, they were deemed little threat and the Space Marines deemed them unnecessary or simply un important to kill at the moment.

Others however soon found themselves surrounded by aliens of different kinds that were equally as desperate as themselves, fought fierce space battles in attempts to secure the areas near the beacons for, they believed them to be of holy properties.

The beacons light up the darkness of space and served as guiding lights for the lost ships, therefore they were of significant strategic purposes.

Many of thece soon found themselves under uneasy alliances as some accidentally or deliberately attempted to destroy the beacons.

The infighting soon came to an end, for none were willing to face the ruthlessness of the uncaring universe. Soon the effects of the Horse Talismans power were felt as many found their injuries and illnesses removed and so the belief, that the beacons were of holy substance was further reinforced.

The Imperial Fist soon found themselves unable to continue their unification crusade, for despite their willingness to continue was unquestionable, there weren't nearly enough Humans to inhabit the many worlds found.

Over and over again lost Astartes attempting to regain control of what they believed to be lost colonies, along with opportunistic aliens, repeatedly attacked the colonial worlds.

Also they began to hear stories of a gargantuan ship that fought the horrors of the universe and continued as if it itself was one of them.

 

[blueayes]

Tho unwilling the many races that formed the Union had little choice but to expand and explore the surrounding systems, their only light became the distant beeping sounds of the beacons.

Time and time again they discovered the horrors of the uncaring universe, tho unwilling the few battle capable ships the Union had were deployed. For the first time in countless millenniums both Humans and Alien alike fought side by side.

Tho disgusted by this the once proud Imperial Guard, both protected and aided the beings the would have mercilessly slaughtered before.

The first battle ever to be recorded would be when an exploration craft called for help upon discovering a fleet of unidentified Human ships. Tho few would ever truly know of what happened, it is known that the fleet was acting as insects attracted to zappers.

One by one the guard entered and were greeted by emptiness, though they searched high and low none could find any of the crew, ship after ship no signs of life could be seen. However it wasn't until the order to dismantle the empty spacecrafts that the truth was revealed, it was there within the walls where all of the people were intumed.

Millions of people whose faces were permanently marked with the sight of sheer horror. Yet it wasn't when a man move one of the corpses, that the woman screamed and ran in a mad dash, the moment she was moved from them.

Over and over again this occurred, it became so common that none of the guardsmen even tried to free them anymore and instead simply decided to put the people down where they were.

It was during this time that several dead worlds were found and were settled by the few that dared to build the forges there. Machines and flesh are said to toil away on them none stop, for the expansion has not even ended, yet more and more materials are demanded.

It is said that the Tech Marines along with whatever few Space Marines, have taken to these worlds as their homes.

Deep into far space the Asari, the single gendered race of blue space woman, search for what little remained of their kind and have begun to give up hope. Each world they come upon is locked in an orgy of drug and tortures pain.

The death of the Goddess at the hands of the serpent, has driven every maiden into uncontrollable madness.

The bodies of children, both alien and Asari have been desecrated in unspeakable ways, Matriarchs are continuously tortured-heald-raped and mentally assaulted to increase the pleasure, of the insane creatures that were once their people.

Any attempt to save any of the people that have not fallen, is pure suicide as creatures of unknown origin laugh as this occurs.

Reluctantly they return to Union space, for it is the only place they have left.

Still as the days passed, several worlds were found filled with a combination of starving people, or cannibalistic mad men driven insane by the lack of food and water in their worlds.

It was here where several captains all agreed to a betrayal of\securin their fellow man's loyalty. There were no words to be said what the people of those worlds must have felt. They must have thought that the Gods had finally come for them.

In exchange for food and water, the people pledged their loyalty and eternal servitude.

Immediately after the call was sent in and was immediately answered, medical ships and colony crafts filled with food and water descended to these worlds. Their robot occupants immediately began to distribute the rations, while their colonial counterparts began to build reserves all over those worlds.

Machines of all kinds began to dig into the planets themselves, they search for a cool area for the people to live. The people of the world would never know but they had lost any freedom they once had, tho in reality none of them care for it anymore.

Few would ever know that in a span of three weeks, eighty seven worlds fell into these captains hands.

However as these stories went many more went unrecorded, The Batarians the once bold enslavers of people, returned to union space completely unwilling to ever leave again. Many of them swore to live in the streets just as long as they never were forced to leave ever again.

Still as time passed by, more and more ships arrived and were integrated to the union. Their reluctant crews, accepted to fight side by side the aliens they once hated.

Finally the first of the guard had been sent to Tylor, however after only two days they returned to their units changed either by artificial implants, chemical upgrades or special weaponry that isolated them, from the people that were their close friends.

It is said that Tylor knew that this would happen, for it both tighten their bonds to each other, however it also made their captains and sergeants more and more daring with every confrontation.

The new guardsmen somehow giving them all a motivation that was once believed lost, in the span of a the few weeks the greatest of each unit was sent to Tylor and they returned changed as those before them.

The Space Marines had once again begun their crusades, longing for a purpose they fought on several worlds, however unlike the times of old they simply broke the aliens will and condemned them to eternal servitude.

Combined with both ancient and new weaponry, thei soon found themselves far deadlier than they once were. The robot soldiers were soon added to their forces, along with the servitors both new and old made these crusades go far smoother than anything they remembered.

 

[blueayes]

Eldar Planetary ship.

The screeching beeping sounds of the robots and servitors combines with the patting of soil and clay, water pumps that will turn the water into mist that will soon begin to moisten the area. The scratching sounds of laser and metal tools carving away creating different runes, that will separate the waters from the world around it.

Tho the disgusting sounds hurt their ears and the smell alone of the oils and smells of the mechanical creations masters.

Still even tho they were both disgusted and repulsed by the machines, they couldn't really leave. The ship was damaged and the few synthetics that remained, were almost unresponsive, so they were forced to use the inferior beings creations.

The last thing they remembered was being dragged away by the few adults and the warp exploding, the next thing they knew everyone, save for a few of those on board fell dead. Their bodies shriberd up, as if something had sucked up their souls only leaving a dead dried up thing in their place.

Two days had passed for them, yet when they emerged from the warp the universe had changed. The empire that they had been so proud of was gone and lesser races dominated the area, tho painful it wasn't unbearable.

No what made their situation unbearable was the fact that any attempt to gaze into the warp and they were assaulted by multiple abominations, some of which the eldest of them recognized as the pleasure partners they used when physical delights weren't enough

Everyday constantly both in the waking moments and in their sleep the whispering voices of unspeakable creatures, spoke of wonders and horors so bat that the youngest of them didn't stop crying.

Plants and statues of the Goddess Isha were brought into the room in an attempt to gain her favor, they all slept in this room now and only ventured out when they needed something to eat or do to bodily needs.

Paintings and scriptures of all kinds were being brought in and it was for this reason that the room was being expanded, this of course caused some of the other rooms to be added to this one place and by that extent forced the well to be redesigned and grown far larger than it was originally expected.

Their spacecraft was far more advanced than any of those around it, even the Monkeys[Humans] massive moon like ship was a pale imitation of theirs.

In order to escape the empire's madness the adults gathered all of the children possible and loaded them to the ship and casted them away. The oldest of them looked all around and if she were to be honest, she was unimpressed by the primitiveness of it all.

This ship, this place that was now their home was nothing more than an old museum piece, she knew there were more of them. There had to be, however the constant voices and the attacks by the abominations made it nearly impossible to look for them.

To put into words what they felt the moment they entered one of the gardens on the ,Monkeys ship and found that the waters kept the room quiet and the enemies away, both disgusted and repulsed her.

Disgusted because they were now forced to use an inferior beings creation and repulsed for if that Human wanted to he could will the waters away from them.

At that moment she knew what would be needed to be done, no monkey no matter who it was could\would deny her body and she would have to present herself to him as an exchange.

Tho it might seem idiotic to anyone else, she could see that the madness was growing and the light of the beacons and its many colored horses was becoming more and more dim, soon they would go out and the only thing keeping them safe would be the waters.

Still with any luck the building of the new well\spring would be completed and they would soon leave this place and begin to search and settle any planet they found pleasing. They didn't even know their temporary homes name, do to the fact that it could be moved and reshaped at will made it easy to grow the well and its protection.

Still soon the walls will reach their limitation and could not be moved any further, this would effectively split the ship in two, one part touched by the mist of the protective waters and the other infected by the madness.

The oldest of them all had agreed to pump however slowly the mist into the other half and no matter how long it took fill each room with it.

Technology- food and plants that were now impossible to reach remained there and if what the areas that the walls opened allowing the mist to touch were any indication, this action was the best one they could take.

Going to the corrupted side left them assaulted by an untold amount of calls for help, they felt every sensation of pleasure and pain available, it was only after they were dragged back that it stopped. Now with the mist the sensations stopped.

The little ones, those who could barely crawl and the ones who couldn't even speak yet were now permanently kept near the waters, it was them who filled the room with the sounds of joy filled laughter.

The moaning creaking sounds were kept at a distance another wall was dragged away opening another room, the contents of said room, along with both the ceiling and the walls groand, pulsed and even screamed as the waters cleansing effects began to take effect.

Still right now the meeting held between the eldest of the ship have all come at a single conclusion, the monkeys had knowledge of the eldar and by their account, the mad ones were still up to their tricks and another batch was to unpredictable that it was known that they were entirely untrustworthy.

So until all of the information could be gathered the simplest things would be done. In order not to hear how the creators breath- talked-smelled and in locations tested. They would all wear simple masks that covered their mouths-ears and noses.

Everything else could be learned to be ignored, at least for now. If there were more of their kind it would be at that moment that they would slaughter the monkeys and hand over everything as well as securing power for themselves.

Years later this group would lament that this would never come and that they were so different from any of their kin that they were now left in a unique position. To stuck in the old ways that they still showed their emotions and were known to make mistakes, so they were not accepted by their craftworld counterparts.

Unlike their fallen the Dark Eldar they actually held morals and even grew to admit that some lesser beings were good companions.

Yet as for those that lived on planets, their dependants on technology was seen as repulsive, for those on the planets had long since given up on technological progress.

They would be seen as traitors as well as fools, for as strange as it may sound. They held more of the lost technology of their empire than that of any other group, in fact the only one that surpassed them was the ones still in the dark city and even then as time went on.

The adding of raith bone constructs would allow them to shorten that distance. Still that would all happen in the following years, right now they were nothing more than a buch of teenagers-school children and infants that were surrounded by primitive creatures, in a hostile universe.

 

[blueayes]

Tylor became somewhat frustrated, more and more calls for help were being received, he had the ships but he lacked the personnel, as things stood he could flash clone enough food-medicine and biomedical equipment.

The girls were all now in the Soyokase's medical room, they were all soon going to go into labor. The problem was that he was soon going to have to move into the infirmary and place his complete and absolute attention to the children's birth, no matter how close he might have been to the women now, there was no denying that the women were pregnant by demon infected children.

As things stood he didn't know why no one had taken advantage of the S.T.C's he had given them, so far no one had put any of them into use and instead decided to use the Soyokase's forge and forger escort ships.

The people both alien and Human completely hated each other and so giving the humans was both a mistake and the best move he could have done. Should something happen to the soyokase and himself, they all would be able to defend themselves.

That is if they ever figured out, just what exactly it was that they had.

Still the soldiers were finally being sent in for augmentation and he had used the soyokase's medical units and increased their capacities.

The chemical enhanced unites, were now with increased muscle density, limited night-infrared and even sound vision, they gained some kind of enhanced hearing-reaction time and tastes. Their weaponry would remain largely the same, except for somewhat stronger armor and enhanced weaponry than the standard ones the Imperials were using.

The mechanically enhanced soldiers were given a civer link that allowed them to hook up to any computer system they found, cybernetic enhancements that allowed them to hook up to any machinery.
This makes them capable of both controlling any machine they encountered, as well as knowing what needs to be done in order to repair them.

The attachments to their bodies made it necessary to increase the person's bodies by adding a type of secondary skin to the soldiers, this makes their skin thicker than normal peoples. Their bones and muscle tissue had to be reinforced so that these people could simply stand with all of their new attachments.

As an unexpected attachment the ability to both hinder and enhance communications depending on the systems being used was added to them, without Tylor himself ever knowing how.

Their weaponry remained largely the same, except for a couple of simple enhanced targeting, communication and transports given to them.

The third batch however they were the exception to this rule, all soldiers were given the best equipment a soldier could gain, armor that both repaired, dispersed and cushing any attack. Be it energy based weapons tor projectile, they were also given the best small arms weaponry disposable at the moment.

Unbeknownst to any of them however their technological upgrade would only leave them ahead of their peers for a short time for after they had learned to use their new equipment, the rest of the enhanced humans would gain their own.

The transport ships that took them back had both the equipment and the vehices, with specific orders to gradually give the enhanced humans their weapons and armors.

They all still needed to get adjusted to their new bodies and their capacities.

As things stood however a disturbingly high amount of planets with nearly exhausted resources had been discovered and the medical ships were desperately needed, the problem was that if he sent them out then there was a high possibility they could go missing. This also meant that the people around could not be trusted at the moment.

Suddenly a thought dawned to him and he began to think.

''Contact-me with one of the Space Marines'' Tylor said and was immediately greeted with static.

''This is brother mark, of the Mantis chapter. '' the marine answered tylor, tho his voice held little respect.

''I have a request if you agree to it, I'll give you important information one that will both encourage and anger you.''Tylor said to the marine, tho the space marine didn't bother to show his face, for some reason tylor snswer the man was enraged.

''Use your ship and two of my medical and supply ships to help with the construction of several colonies recently discovered.'' tylor answered

''Agreed'' Mark answered

Tho taken back tylor held his ground ''Good , now for your payment that crystal I gave you when you agreed to listen to me is an S.T.C enjoy it'' Tylor said immediately ordering both the medical and the supply ship to head to the mantys planet

''Well that's one problem down'' Tylor said to himself.

 

[blueayes]

The moving swarms of the infection spread quickly, the endless bodies of trillions of rats made any attempt to see the ground below rather pointless.

They were to help distribute both the medical equipment and much needed rations that the newly discovered worlds of the lost branches of Humanity.

Why had the Mantis warriors acknowledged Tylors petition\order, in reality they had no real reason. The distance from union space to the planets they were now gathered around was rather insignificant, war trable was simple and thanks to the cool guiding light of the beacons, they couldn't get lost in the warp again.

Mortal men will never know how it felt to see the soldiers under their care grow old and die, to see their children grow , how their lush hair. Be it dark black or albino white, turn grey and die.

They were forced to see this over and over again.

Mark and his brothers watched as all of the guardsmen and women changed, how their skin turned grey or pale white, how their whiteness of their eyes vanished only to be replaced with a pitch black coloring.

The guardsmen all grew in height and with every generation that passed, the mantis were all that remained.

Every mortal men-women and child had become a ship born, the perfect form of humanity was now gone. The people onboard began to worship him and his brothers, it wasn't their fault, without the emperor's light, they didn't know any better.

No, no mortal will ever know how it felt to know that they faid the very people they were supposed to protect and to be denied the emperor's mercy. No no mortal will ever know how it felt.

A total of twelve ships, including the joined medical and ration crafts along with the already existing exploration ships made a total of fifty seven ships.

Unfortunately for thirty seven planets their might wasn't enough.

''This is captain brother Mark of the Mantis, all ships open fire, we do not possess any exterminatus weapons, send these abominations to the warp.'' Mark said as the fleet began to open fire on the infected planets.

Within moments plasma fire, combined with energy and projectiles rained down onto the rat infested planets killing everything alive.

Again they had failed.

''Brother we are receiving evacuation petitions several of the remaining worlds are reporting infestations'' one of his remaining brothers informed Mark.

The gathered force along with the reants of the fleet and the guards left behind should be enough to secure at least one or more planets, the problem was that there weren't enough humans to simply throw into the fight.

No there was only two options now, either open fire on the raining planets or aid in the evacuations of the planets. There wasn't that many humans left in the area so now the only real option left was to aid in the evacuations of those possible.

''This is brother Mark assist in the evacuation of the citizens'' he ordered the fleet, within seconds two ships entered the warp and returned to union space, they left completely overloaded with human bodies both living and otherwise.

The energy of teleportation beams were being picked up as one of the more ancient ships transported more and more survivors onto another ship, it continued this until the signals of all high amount of human life sighs vanished.

Suddenly several ships emerge from the warp one after another, text begin to fill his ship's communications. Tylor has ordered for them to b filled with as many refugees as possible, however no more help could be sent in.

From what his report said from one of the techmarines from one of the chapters that had been rediscovered recently said, that Tylor had been informed of the situation and had been physically restrained by both marine and human alike.

Even the alien was involved.

Tylor was finally forced to accept their petition for the Soyokase to remain when his concubines went into labor. As things stood all eight hundred thousand ships were the fleet the massive ship carried within itself.

They were all unmanned only machine men control them, the order was simple.

Get those people out of there and kill those things, use my machine soldiers to discover who did this and if you can, make their Gods cry for their pain.

The ship continued to teleport as many people as possible, there were without any doubt several alien planets going thru their own infestation. However those could wait, it wasn't a coward or a movie without honor.

The order said get those people, the key word was people and by no right were any alien people, they were at best some sort of inferior being. Like a servitor or a pet one took care of.

The ancient ship continued to repeatedly transport as many humans as possible until the human life sighs were overwhelmed by the infestation on the planets below.

Finally until the last human was evacuated did the transportation of the alien began.

This went on for over thirteen hours, finally when the last ship had vanished with the last of the refugees did they begin to act on their revenge\ investigation.

Somehow the machine man, had been sent into the emptiness of the void and awaited for the last of the fleet to leave. Everyone on the bridge wondered if Tylor had given them all orders beforehand.

Just like the fleet before the mechanical contraptions began to open fire onto the planet eblo, then they went to another and another, until all of the surviving planets had been bombarded. Reports of the effects of the weapons effects onto the planet's atmosphere came in and the servitors onboard struggled to keep up with the information that was being sent in.

Finally when the last planet had fallen did they enter it, Mark and his brothers watched with both interest and wary as the machine men bombarded the survivors from above.

Video recording of real time was sent directly to his ship and as this occurs the ship that had teleported the refugees left. Mark made a mental note to remember that ship and find out who was its captain.

Again and again the machines fired from above and as the infestation died out they descended onto the planet, one by one the killed of any survivors while gathering any weaponry-book-toy or ounce of information available.

Soil samples were taken and a rather disturbing discovery was uncovered, twelve feet below the surface warp stone covered the underbelly of the planet.

The machine men did this over and over again, so many things happened in repetition that Mark began to wonder if something greater was pushing its influence onto them.

Again and again warp stone was uncovered and by the twelve time the Mantis warriors all ame to the same conclusion, the rat infestation, was not a normal one. Not because it was an infestation, but because there was no signs of rats ever inhabiting these worlds until recently.

Then there was the other issue the unusual appearance of warp stone on all of the planets.

''This is captain Mark I am ordering you to take two cups of water from the holy fountain Tylor has built upon my ship'' Mark order the machine men and one flew towards his ship

The amount of sixteen ounces of water was taken and when the machine man arrived at the plane stress of warp stone, it poured the holy liquid.

Within seconds the image of a woman with blue hair, held together with a hair pin that had two blue orbs, that were on the left and right side of a golden orb in the center.

A flowered staff blasted a golden light and the image of a massive rat swirling and screeching shot from the planet, however this made the planet unstable and massive earthquakes covered the planet.

The machine men used their way of flight to escape the crumbling planet.

A brief scan of the planet showed no signs of the warp stone ever being present and the woman had vanished.

Tho it sikend everyone onboard they had little choice but to repeat the process to the planets the machines had cleansed, each time the planets crumbled, each time arat spun in agony and the woman was seen either water rained down like a flood or a golden blast of power was seen.

The very thought of using some unknown god's power was repulsing, but none the less they did it.

However on the thirteenth planet Mark ordered the machine men to move onto the planets that had previously cleansed from orbit by the ships, they discovered the exact thing, he and his brothers hoped not to see.

The rats were larger s the machines near the warp stone, by every foot the size of the rats grew and mutated. More and more humanoid features were present as they went deeper and primitive projectile weapons uncovered.

''MMMMrraaa!'' the rat screamed, as the water was poured into the stone.

Finally the last planet, yet there was no life present, no infestation, no warp stone and no survivors. However signs the infestation were everywhere, no doubt that whatever god was guiding the rats knew full well that if it remained then its plans wouldn't ever come to.

So it escaped with its creations.

One by one after pouring the water onto the planet did the machine men stack themselves into as many rooms possible until the very ship was completely overwhelmed with their numbers.

Small blocks stacked up upon each other was all that they were.

The mantis would not see battle today and the section of space was marked down for re habitation after it had been thoroughly inspected.

Mark had no doubt that his brothers were wondering the same thing, was this way the universe became when the Emperor's light was gone.

Still they turned back into union space, securing the sector was now more important than before. It was the only place that was safe for the moment and by that it wa the only place mortals could fined any rest.

 

[blueayes]

Saitama was sleeping within a pair of soft blankets, though his room was completely cooled, do to the captain ordering for the temperature regulators to be all but deactivated. His food and water supplies were miniscule at best and yet the man continued as it was nothing.

Several wards were set up anywhere he repeatedly went and contrary to popular belief they had no effect on him.

A few days ago one of the ships distant from them, had finally found a planet filled with humans, yet no one knew or to be precise no one had any idea about what had happened to the other planets and their inhabitants.

They were greeted at first with suspicion and acted accordingly to standard imperial contact procedures. The natives were surprisingly receptive to this and agreed that in exchange for simple technology they would trade with the newly created union.

For three days they did the standard paperwork and for three nights the guardsmen inspected the planet, yet it was in the fourth that communications ended.

They had finally arrived to the world and captain noted that there were some life signs, but they were all imperial and as for the cruiser and its missing crew. The ship was found but the crew remain missing.

Boarding parties were both investigating the cruiser but as of now no trace could be found.

''Saitama, I have a mission for you'' the captain's voice echoed thru the ship's speakers. ''Go down and see what's going on'' the captain ordered, Saitama for his part simply rose from his makeshift bed and walked out of the ship.

A servo skull recorded Saitamas arrival and followed him as he began to walk around the planets empty files.

Continues recordings and transmissions showed that no life signs could be detected, however it was the Servo skulls transmission that caught the captain's attention, so much so that he found the need to distribute it to the rest of the investigation team.

Several flashes of shadows appeared above-below-in front-from behind and on both sides, all around Saitama before vanishing, however the servo skull detected that the surrounding area was now covered in moisture.

As by standard procedure it turned to see where the monitor was and the sight brought everyone s chess to turn cold.

Blood covered the field, as is a huge massacre had occurred there, only the spot where Saitama had stood remained unaffected.

An uneasy silane and a strange feeling of fear settled in and a gain and again the shadows came forth and as if some sort of unseen weapon was used against them, they all exploded in a bloody mist.

Finally after eight hours after what had happened right before their eyes that the sight of a wall made of skulls was discovered, however as Saitama near it. The servo skull noted that, all around the wall several men and women danced around it.

Their singing and dancing was almost completely hypnotic only the wards were keeping their efects away.

As Saitama neared them, he seemed almost as in a trance as he grew to a stop, the woman surrounded him and softly spoke for him to join them.

Saitama however didn't respond, no instead Saitamas gaze was kept at the bottom of the wall of skulls.

It was there that the sight both repulsed and spoke of what had happened to the planet's inhabitants. At the very bottom were the skeletal remnants of insects, then small animals, followed by the skulls of children, than larger animals and finally the skulls of guardsmen and machines.

They all had the look of pure ecstasy and horror somehow mixed in.

The people began to laugh and dance all around saitama and their hauntingly beautiful laughter brought the guard to their knees. Saitama however stood, for the briefest of moments a woman within insect like arms appeared before saitama,before banishing.

The people laughed and spread out their speed was inhumanly fast and their features began to take on more and more insect like features. However this time Saitama vanished entirely and the screams of joy and pain echoed.

Within moments reports from several servitors in the now set up agri worlds sent in reports that several skull like monuments had been discovered almost as they had just appeared out of thin air.

''Domonets'' a random guardsmen said and the captain didn't even try to discipline him for he was now fully aware of the creature they carried with them.

In any other situation a complete invasions force would be called upon to push back such an invasion. Now however, without any real issue such an act was entirely avoided, it was rather undramatic.

Creatures that could wipe out entire planets, wiped out by a man he had treated like a piraya.

A creature he had shown little respect for, the creature that could move about space without a ship and could fight greater demons like if they were nothing.

''As soon as he's back onboard take us back to Union space, we can't hurt it and if it wanted to, it could just go back on its own'' the captain said as his ship's sensors detected Saitama's re entry.

Unbeknownst to anyone Kher-Ys a battle was being fought, the echoing screams of the Eldar long since gone resonated as water began to drift within the dried silver rivers.

At the heart of craft world the temple that once housed the avatar of the war god, was turning changing, it started with a simple drop of water, hen a slight drizzle which continued to grow, until it became a raging waterfall.

The waters began to run all thru the craftworld and into the very bones that made the long dead ships body. Everywhere the waters went, the resonating screams felt confort, but it was a hollow thing, for the dead were long since gone and the only thing calmed was the screams that never ceased until this day.

Ancient titans glew with an ethereal power as their forms began to repair any damaged. Warriors of necromancy rose and began to patrol the ancient empty corridors, corpses of the long since dead, were washed away never to be seen again.

Forest of ancient alien worlds long since gone, began to be cleansed of the taint that now afflicted them.

Archaic machinery twisted and turned as the taint of she who thirst and the cleansing waters of aqua battled for domain of the ancient ship, demons poured by the thousands yet ancient runes now blocked their entrance just as they had done so long ago, the waters only enhanced the wards power.

Days became minutes-minutes become seconds and for the first time in since the tragic events the craftworld moved into the warp, the waters acting as a shield from the madness of the warps inhabitants.

It emerged from the warp only to find itself surrounded by ships escaping from an unknown horror, the people aboard them were wary but landed on it nonetheless. The moment the last ship landed did the enemy arive a fleet of chaos marines.

The ship entered the warp again and escaped, over and over again this event occurred and over and over again a new threat was uncovered. Soon the many aliens and began to thank whatever power was protecting them.

Soon the name Kher-Ys was all but forgotten only those that knew about it would ever recognize the ship, however none of its new inhabitants knew about its original name. So it was now called the Leviathan.

The titans and necromaniac warriors now no more than automatons, patrolled the ship's body and a new triad was created, each race had its own way of doing things and the Leviathan was large enough, so they all grew to take care of their own ways.

Ancient lost shps rose and continuously protected the main ship itself.

Soon at the center a statue of a woman was found and the inhabitants somehow knew of her name Aqua, with this their new faith was now sealed.

They were now the people of the Axis cult.

''Aqua forgives all. Thou shalt love big breast. Thou shalt love small breast. The axis cult teaches forgiveness, even though a lolicon, a neet or love animal eared girls. If thou detest undead and devil girls, have love in thine heart, and obey the law, all will be forgiven'' they all chanted as a pink water flower began to bloom.

Aqua now held a position within this realm and her power tho a simple echo of itself wa now a true presence nonetheless.

Deep within space several people that didn't know each other, no not anymore, looked into space.They had been lost for so long, that the people themselves had come to two conclusions, the first one was the most dreaded and feared.

The Emperors had died and they were all that was left of Humanity.

The second was perhaps the true one, but they had no way of knowing. They had somehow been thrown of so far of course that, they could no longer see the Emperor's light. But if this was true, question was, where were they?

Near but far from them alien words that only knew about the mad whispers of the mad Gods and tried desperately tosty away from them. To thece aliens the ships seemed as stars that moved strangely.
[1]

Still others that had had to fight all their lives, against the machines that they once used to spread out thru the stars.

Yet amongst all of this, there were planets long believed to be the last of their kind, or simply were all that remained of their people all lived their lives completely unaware of the events that would be forced into.

Tylor for his part could only stare in horror, the woman had all gone into labor. So he was forced to take the Horse Talisman to help push away any aint from the warp.

Unsurprisingly the births were blondy and the talisman had essentially exploded in nothing but blue light bathing the entire medical room.

It wa exhausting, but he had to return the talisman to the bridge, yet when he returned there the entire place was covered in alarms, the beacons began to dim and go out. It all took only a moment, a single second.

The light exploded and the ships computers announced the repositioned or relocating lost beacons and the activation of the secondary beacons.

Near the beacons, every alien-space marine or human defender was caught completely off guard when the beacons light in the war began to dim and finally go out. Then the beacon thru something off into space and the object itself separate five times, before flying of into the emptiness of space.

All it took was a moment, however within the warp all of those that could see saw a stampede of horses running off within the warp, everywhere the beacons stopped the horses ran into and light up the area.

Ancient systems lost within space were forcefully reactivated and in turn light up the surrounding space, while at the same time reactivating the beacons near them.

It was in this moment, that those with reams f expansion-exploration or simply to see the mystery of space took to the lost stars and began to explore.

Tylor could only watch, any hope for small groups to secure and expand slowly, space had become infinitely more dangerous.

The moment Saitama enterd the ship, he knew something had changed. Truth be told he knew what was going on, the people on the ship feared him, did he care not really.

Still being ignored and getting what he needed, were better than him having a hored of angry people teiying to hurt him, because thing ended badly for them.

He could feel Tylor, somewhere..... the man was worried about something. Saitama could feel his masters heart beat and truth be told that man needed to learn to relax or he would end up dead and with a lot of gray hair before he got old.

It was kinda funny really, being in space and fighting monsters and somehow nothing changed.

Even as he walked down the ships halls, Saitama ignored the people around him and the looks they gave him. There was no reason to care about that at the moment.

Saitama cluld feel the ship shake and somehow pull itself in evwry direction, no doubt they had enterd the Warp.

Whatever thjs faster than light was, it was strange Saitama thought to himself, as he listened to creatures screatching at the ships shields. Someyimes something would even stand on the ship itself and repeatedly hit it, until the creature tired itself out and left.

Still it was kind of funny knowing that there was no one out there that could give him a real fight. Saitama thought to himself.

The ships walls stopped mobing, thatmeant that they were leaving the warp again, it didn't matter saitama decided just to go back to his room.

All of a sudden the thunderous roar of gunfire tearing thru the ships shields, and protective armor echoed, as saitana was thrown from one sie of the hall to the other.

Saitama managed to hold onto whatever people he could catch, but he still heard the sounds of bones breaking.

"We're hit! All personal prepare for inpact, we're going to make a crash landing!" Someone screamed thru the speakers and in an instant everything was hurled into the air before it landing on the metal floors once again.

Even before the ship fell Saitama had managed to get to his feet and put as many people, as he could find in a standing position, that way they didnt hurt themselves.

So the moment the ship made planet fall Saitama was already begging to reach the exit door.

The moment the ship made impact Saitama could see his opponents, it would be a few minutes, maybe even hours before the people onbkard could be able to defend them selves.

So it was up to him, to protect them.

The enemy wore red armor and carried the skulls of all kinds of creatures, wether they were human-alien or animal.

Blood seemed to drip feom them and saitama knew that it wasnt their blood, that flowed onto the ground.

Most carried large swords, others heavy guns and some even had giant robots with them.

Still long before the first shot was fired, the heavy red chaos tainted armor, exploded as Saitama landed his fist kill.

Wave after wave of traitor astaties, vanished in an instant and whatever currupted impirial knights and titans that were around seemed to left themselves into the air befor lighting up the sky as they exploded.

Bathing those bellow with chemical fores and debry.

Deep within the planet something began to wake, not physically, but mentally. It began to control its otherwise insane rage and noticed that something was killing, his servants.

Good there was no ace for weaklings here. It thought.
