Warhammer the untold [Strange]story

[blueayes]

Astronomican The Astronomican is a psychic beacon located on Terra, which projects an astropathic beam 70,000 light years across the Milky Way Galaxy which human Navigators utilise to pilot the starships of the Imperium of Man through the otherwise unnavigable chaos of Warpspace. As the beam generated is psychic it exists within the psychic universe of the Warp. The beam can be psychically sensed from almost anywhere in Warpspace and is vital for faster-than-light travel since the mutant human Navigators use it as the only fixed reference point in the galaxy which is required for a starship to reach its intended destination when it travels through the Warp. Without it, the Imperium could not survive as an interstellar society as long-range warp travel would be rendered impossible with ships restricted to only calculated jumps no more than 4-5 light years a time. During the Dark Age of Technology before the Astronomican existed, its functions were fulfilled by a strange xenos techno-arcana device known as a Pharos. These devices acted like a warp-beacons for the navigators to use as a reference point. It was theorised that there was probably a whole network of such devices in place across multiple human-dominated part of the galaxy, but over time, many of these devices were lost or forgotten. One such device was discovered by the Ultramarines Legion on the ancient world of Sotha beneath Mount Pharos

The stench of rotting corpses, putrid blood, urine and feces hit Saitama even before he made planet fall. Thin delicate tendrils seemed to reach out into space connecting themselves to the abomination.

If he hadn't known it himself, he could have sworn that he was looking at the veins of a person or animal, extending from the hart to the rest of its chess. The fact that the ground seemed to bleed as he steps on it, certainly didn't help matters.

Looking up for any trace of the ship and his Captains ongoing fight, he was briefly caught of guard as he instead saw nothing but white. There were no stars, no blue sky or even a single trace of character, simply a dull white sky, similar to a dried old bone.

For a brief moment Saitama cursed the fact that he had just jumped in, he had no plan, but knowing the Captain he knew the man already had one, or by the very least was working on one.

So he decided to do the one thing that felt natural, after all he was behind enemy territory, So he raised his fist and struck the ground and announced his arrival. The ground broke beneath him as if a bomb had detonated and within moments he heard the sound of stampeding hordes, heading straight toward him.

Yet he didn't stay and fight, like he normally did. No he needed a distraction and this served like an ideal one.
As he turned to run away and relocate, he was caught of guard as one of the skeletal ships he broke on his way down, crashed onto the planet. Yet his assumption that it was one of his was immediately dismissed, seeing as the bones were on fire and the white and black robots were beginning to walk out of it.

''Corpsman Saitama, we have received reports of survivors on this world and have been instructed to help in their extraction'' one of the white robots said to him

Saitama for his part was about to say something only or the bone like constructs of animals, goats, dogs, pigs, dinosaurs and what appeared like dragons charging straight at them. The robots responded with a combination of plasma fire, lasers and slug throwers.

''Sir, we will serve as guards in this area, our systems detect life three hundred meters to te left.'' one of the black machines told Saitama, as it fired at the bone like creatures

Saitama simply walked\ran away, his mission was clear, tho he didn't know where he ran to an in a moment he found himself in the entrance of a cave.

There are few moments that Satama himself could feel rage, sadly this was one of them. The very entrance was made of children eaten by the wall in various stages, some just by the ankles, others all the way to their neck while others were just their crying faces.

He wanted to help then, but as he struck the wall trying to get them out, the wall itself bleed and the child died. No he couldn't save them, they were the wall itself, all he could do was run straight into this cave of hell and kill whoever had done this to them.

Meanwhile in space, the Soyokase and her crew were doing little better, the fighting had begun and the V.I systems went straight to work, comand boats were sent into the void as command centers, that functions as well as repair craft, for the various ships fighting.

Second by second, the battle was more intense, shields flared as the combination of unknown weaponry blasted the bone like boats. Yet the bones themselves seemed to be of little threat, no the real danger was the blood, that spilled all over after they blew up.

This caused the ship's systems to go haywire, the captain on the Soyokase was forced to call those ships back to the Soyokase, just to stamp the horse talisman and remove the corruption.

Any ship to damaged was returned to one of the camad crafts, were repaired on the spot and sent out to continue fighting. Yet in all of this the Soyokase itself, was what caused the biggest uproar on the enemies side.

Primarily because, the captain had decided to just plain use the planet killers right of the bat and sent them to destroy any of the hollowed out husks.
To the people on board, h seemed like a mad man, however the man himself kept a quiet look the entire time, he saw the world burn because he had ordered it.

The tachyon particles installed in the Soyokase, made themselves known or the very least give an idea why they were installed. As the Soyokase turned in an unnatural way, that would have caused a ship of such size, causing it to break in half.

However this was not the case, it turned in an impossible speed and its side canons, guardian weapons fired at the incoming boats. The warp jumps, proved themselves essential as the ship, entered a small jump, while at the same time it existed another one firing at the enemy.

This entire situation repeated for two weeks, the ship's own forgeries were stretched thin as the fighting caused its stored up material to be used up.
The power courses themselves were so spent by that time that they were forced to automatically shut down, leaving the ship to defend itself by, its missile defense systems.

The entire time, he captain repeatedly ordered for scans of the area hoping to find life on any part of the unholy abomination, but he was met with only the moaning faces of the tormented souls used to create it.

How many worlds had he killed in the two week, truthfully he didn't ever want to know.

This went on little by little the fighting shrank in and intensified as the ships launched drones into the red beating planet, momentarily sending up visuals of what they saw. This is what confused everyone, in one screen they saw Saitama barely landing on the planet, on another the ongoing fight yet in another was the one green planet.

However the ship's systems showed that this was ll just a trick, only the ongoing fight was was real, after all it was the only one with an active heat signature. The rescue robots themselves had collected the few non corrupt people, but teleporting was not possible, so only rescue ships could go down.

Unbeknownst to any of the woman on board, the Horse talisman glew brighter and brighter as they neared the pulsing red planet, straightening itself as it fought off the corrupted energies, the planet gave off.

Saitama for his part was doing little better, than his companions in space. The entire cave was a mine , the walls themselves were nothing more than wailing screaming faces, long gone were the people and aliens screaming for help, now they were nothing more then stretched out faces moaning and howling endlessly.

He knew that it was only his incredible speed that kept him safe at the moment, every time he had to tear open a path or break apart some sort of wall he was sprayed with a type of bloody mist, it was like liquid acid as ti touched his hero outfit. He knew this because of how it ate away at it, the moment it came to contact with his suit.

All he could do was run faster and faster, in order to prevent it from touching him again, otherwise hed end up naked, not that he cared, but really.

Even as he ran the walls and the tunnels all seemed to move, up down in circles and even some had shown him running right past himself. In those locations he simple just broke thru the wall and kept going down, he knew that all caves went down so all he had to do was just give a kike to the floor and keep going.

Few people would understand his logic but after a while he got fed up with running and just plain decided to kike his way down. After all he was bound to run into whoever lead or at the very least controlled this place so who cared.

It wasn't until he hit the ground below him for the twelfth time that he found a room filled with plants, each of them looked incredibly good, except that as he neared them he began to see the tiny blood like things jumping up and down on them.

The leaves dropped something like puss, while the stems and the grass were all smeared as he stood on top of them, almost as if they were made of puss, themselves.

There were animals too and these thing had their intestines sticking out, while their stench was so bad that it nearly made him vomit. However he had eaten, Blizzards cooking, that one time she tried to bribe him and thankfully, both the taste in his mouth and the smell of the place he was in, weren't as bad as that.

Birds that couldn't fly anymore, as their bodies were nothing more then deceased ridden corpses and some things he couldn't even tell what they were, yet for some reason they all tried to catch him.
In all honesty he didn't want to touch them, so he didn't he just clapt his hands over and over again, unleashing sonic booms, followed by powerful gust of wind sending them all flying , splattering them on the cave walls.

When he was done he found that a small door stood alone at the other end of the cave, honestly his patience was almost gone, the smell, combined with his clothes being ruined, along with everything that had happened, up until now were making him very angry.

It was there behind the tiny little doors, which were honestly the size of a mouse, which was weird considering they seemed gigantic when he first saw them.

It was the moment he opened them that he found himself inside a giant room, there sitting in a throne of bones, that were still crying, as if they felt every moment, that he saw a creature. No a demon, sitting arrogantly, like an old rogue from the time people still used swords.

No words were said no sighs made, only the sudden burst of fist striking each other. Normally the monster said how great it was or did some dumb thing, yet this one for some reason didn't.

It wasn't until they both punched each other, bursting the ceiling open, allowing the light of the stars to come in, witch was weird considering they looked as if they were being turned off as time went by, that Saitama saw that his enemy had no mouth, no eyes and no body, he was fighting nothing except smooth bones.

It was hard to believe all of that happened in the span of three weeks, two were none stop fighting and picking people up, while the last one was fixing everything, namely the ships and the robots broken.

The entire time, the Captain was either using the talisman to fix a ship or looking over the ship's computers.

Still the the ship had been fixed and everyone was okay and they were on their way again. 10

''Ca...Captain'' a shy voice, spoke to the man as he kept himself occupied reading all of the reports in front of him.

Rubbing his eyes the man simply turned to look at her. ''Sorry, these things don't make ny sense. Metal expands in some areas, while in others it's completely missing, weapons systems have some kind of bug that didn't exist before they were lunches and for some strange reason, we have some kind of tree growing from a bunch of our robots.'' the Captain answered

''This whole thing doesn't make any sense'' the Captain answered before pausing ''Sorry, what was it that you needed'' he asked her

''Could you, touch me again'' she asked, her voice carried her uncertainty. After all the man had great power, these days alone proved it, his bonds with the machine spirits were proof of it.

They screamed demented as they returned, yet every time they connected with the world ship, they began to sing. Each machine spirit sang as it was cleansed, their own maddening cries, became sweet melodies.

He just looked at her, his dark brown eyes held the exhaustion of not sleeping this entire time. For a moment he just looked at her, he slowly stretched out his hand and held her head.

''How do you feel?'' he asked her, his voice was soft, but firm

''I can feel him. He's happy, somehow he knows what's going on and he knows we're safe'' she answered, knowing she didn't answer his question

''But I can feel it…. It wasn't him'' she finally answered, only for the Captain to place his hand on her forehead, she felt the blue power he used wash over her, over her son.

For the briefest of instances, she felt what the man in front of her felt, he was exhausted, it wasn't physical thoe that was present. No the man in front of her was just as scared as she was, he was uncertain of the things in front of him and the things left behind.

She felt his confidence in being able to beat anything that tries to hurt them and his belief that at the end everything would end up well. Yet he hid this all well, there was a wall between them.

Between the world, the people, the ship, between her and him.

For the briefest of instances she saw him, standing in a room of white, completely alone and then it was over.

''There done'' he said to her, with a smile on his face.

She just stood there, even as he turned around in the gray and white bridge of the ship, surrounded by servitors and unmanaged computers, completely alone with no one else.

She just stood there, helpless.

''Hey'' Saitama said, as he walked past her.

''Sup, how are our guest doing'' the Captain asked, his tone a lot more upbeat, than before.

''Their okay, but the kids are all running around, right now their just in the doctor's area and they're all getting food and water but. What are you going to do with them?'' Saitama asked the Captain.

''Good question, we'll keep them with us for now and if they want to leave, we let them. It's not like they have to stay'' the Captain answered

''So how are you going to do this?''Saitama asked him

''I guess we could figure out where to put them for now, we have plenty of room'' the Captain answered, with a smile at the end.

''Anyway, tell everyone to stay on the first five floors, for now. I still have to stay up here. For some dam reason, half the crap up her needs to be signed before it gets done'' the Captain answered.

Yet as Saitama turned and walked away, she decided to ask something she and everyone of the woman with her wanted to know. ''Ca...Capatai, if I may be so bold. Could you tell me your name. I mean the people will want to know'' she asked hoping he didn't get mad at her

''Thats right, you guys don't know my name. Just call me Taylor. The Irresponsible Captain Tylor'' he said, with a sad smile

Enkidu: Chains of Heaven (天の鎖エルキドゥ, Ten no KusariErukidu?) is the Noble Phantasm most trusted by Gilgamesh, even more so than Ea, and the "greatest secret" stored in the Gate of Babylon. It is a chain named after his closest friend made to bind the gods so they cannot escape, making it one of the few Anti-Divine weapons that holds the concept of "reigning over the gods." The strength and durability of the chain grows stronger with the target having higher Divinity, but is no more than a tough chain to a target without Divinity like Saber, Assassin, or Archer. When used against a regular human like Shirou Emiya, he feels he has no chance of prying it off of him. Divine targets are completely held in place, allowing him to bind the "Bull of Heaven" that brought seven years of famine in Uruk. It does have some sort of limit, as even he is able to tell that the chain is not enough to completely bind the demi-god Heracles strengthened by Mad Enhancement.

Maria
The woman left following the demon as it walked out of the bridge, the man or whatever he was, was still there reading report after report.

He hadn't noticed her, but she knew that it had.

The bald headed creature had proven itself, capable at combat, that alone was certain. First in Cadia and now in this accursed place, however it had displayed the ability to learn far too quickly from its mistakes.

She had seen the ongoing battle it had from one of the many screens and noted that it had an unusual resistance to the surrounding areas taint.
When it realized, it couldn't go any further, it simply destroyed the walls and made itself another root and now it had noted her spying on them all.

Normally she herself would call this paranoia, except its eyes were locked in her position. They were dead, as if some how some way, it had been forced to live without emotion, so much so that it was completely unable to feel any.

It just looked bored.

The woman for her part, was one of the previous pleasure toys of the once demonic vessel, now however she was just a simple pregnant whore.

True enough she was somewhat good looking, she had long black hair, wide hips, somewhat decent breast and brown eyes, her stomach was already a decent size.

But what stood out more was that look on her face, she was smiling. Even as she walked with that thing in front of her, she smiled and even went as far as to rub her stomach. All the while knowing full well the origins of that abomination.

Still they walked right passed her, she briefly tensed up and noticed the white cape cover the woman. Like a shield, even as the walked away, she noticed its eyes and they changed, long gone were the dead unexcited state, now they were focused noting every single one of her movements.

Somehow someway, even as it looked at her, thru the corner of its eye, it somehow made her feel, like an insect, juts by it looking at her.

She had fought demons before, but nothing made her feel so absolutely helpless. If she had to put it into words, she was a single grain of sand, n a desert and it was the desert itself.

To it she was absolutely meaningless. Just how ws man controlling it.

Her mouth was dry, her heart was about to stop from the constant beating and she hadn't noticed that she had suddenly fallen to the floor.

It was only when the feeling of cold aluminum touched her, that she was brought back from her shock, that she realized any of this.

She looked up and saw the man that controlled that thing looking down at her, with a simple smile.

''Don't try to hurt anyone around him.'' he said

''What is it'' she somehow managed to answer

''Human and no he's not a demon'' the he answered her back, before pausing taking a deep breath and exhaling.
''Saitama, worlds unknown hero. Capable of defeating anyone with a single mighty punch. Those that knew of him, began to call him One Punch Man. That's all you're getting from me'' he said to her before he turned and walked back to the computers.

She just sat there, unknowingly the man had given her quite the amount of information. One the creature wasn't affected by real names, considering how the man repeatedly called him by it,
The second, the sheer capacity of the things power, was if what the man just said true, then it was an abomination impure sense of strength alone.

''Anyway, now that you're here come look at this, would you!'' he screamed for her to follow him.

She slowly picked herself of the floor and walked up to the man, he had his back completely exposed. If he really knew so much, then he should have known to never leave himself exposed to an Inquisitor, yet as she approached him, she noticed that there was the distinctive ethereal, light near him.

''Whatever we just fought was smart. It suked at fighting, not because it couldn't but because it wouldn't. Nearly every drone is infected by some kind of bacteria and the talisman is cleaning them all.''

''But the thing is, that tis entire area is nothing more than a giant net. I cannot say anything because of the girl, but every time we were hit the dam infection spread'' he said to her

''So it let itself be attacked.'' she asked him

''More like be stimulated, from the way it defended the red planet against Saitama. I say it was the only part that mattered.'' he answered her
''I think I figured out why. Why bother fighting, when all you have to do is, spread to the enemy by spores. The ships that fought, had their shields drained, the metal is rusted, sick or gone somehow. All of them were never reached by the enemy.''


''This one's resistant for now, but we should get out of this place soon just incase.'' he finished as he showed her the images of every single unmanned vessel.


''So Tylor, what's your next move.'' she asked


''Mission stays the same, I'm calling the world eater for help'' he answered her ''By the way how did you know my name'' h asked her


She momentarily cursed her stupidity.


''I heard you tell the woman that left.'' she answered


''Cool, so what's yours'' he asked her


''Maria'' she said, before she turned around and walked away


At the end of the third week, the ship left the system, using momentarily short warp jump, Taylor dropped of a single beacon, imprinting the Horse Talisman on it before he sent it into space and watched how it began to send in more and more details of the surrounding space.9

 

[blueayes]

The Soyokase's empty hull gave it the feeling of a ghost city, only the various machines moved about, faintly yet somehow very clearly the sound of children laughing, running could be heard.

As Saitama walked beside her, he didn't utter a word, on her home world she had been nothing more than a simple street girl, her work was simply providing pleasure for the various people in the hive.

At least i was until the, maddening invasion from the chaotic monstrosities, she couldn't remember anything from what they did or what she experienced, but she could remember, the feeling of the tendrils entering her.
She remembered them entering from every single pore in her body, how her skin, nerves, bones screamed with a maddening ecstasy, that was too unnatural to ever feel good.

Then, the image of a pair of glowing golden eyes and a blue cool ethereal glow.

How long had it been, the time she had been imprisoned she had no idea, yet she knew whose golden eyes she had seen were.

They were Saitama's, she had seen his image as he fought the skeleton on that cursed world and how his eyes burned with a distinctive golden light as he fought.

The blue light was that of the captains healing touch, every time he placed his hand on her on the other woman, cut away at the madness that still lingered inside her. Sadly she she had no name, she had never had one, she never needed one and for the first time she realized the importance of one.

After all the captain had told her his name and she had nothing to return to him.

Almost as if he had read her mind Saitama spoke ''T, would you go get the rest of the girls and take them to the Captain. Tell them to get him away from the computers, oh and if he refuses, don't accept no for an answer'' Saitama said to her, but he never turned to look at her.

''Master Saitama, but the Captain'' she began to speak against what was just said to her only for Saitama to stop, she expected an attack, yet he only began to talk.

''He's been working none stop. Even before this fighting, looking after the machines onboard, having to repeatedly look into new information that's coming in with these people and reading thru old ones that were already in this ship before we arrived.''

''I only fight with my hands, he's been fighting from the very beginning. Hes tired and as time pases hes going to be overwhelmed. Get him to stop'' Saitama told her, before he walked away leaving her behind

She stood there alone uncertain of what to do. Yet she had been ordered to do something and for once she was uncertain if it was the right thing.

She knew that the captain had been responsible for acquiring their food, he had cleansed and repaired both ships, along with her and her fellow slaves. It was no mystery to any of them that he had been working none stop, in all of this she asked herself, how did she , no how did they manage to get someone like him to listen.

They were all bloated children growing in their wombs, so as for pleasure they were worthless. They all had their own unique skills, she was certain of that, yet she didn't know how she could get the captain to stop working.

Still she began to walk and after five minutes she found the rest of the woman chitchatting attempting on clothes they had found in one of the many rooms. They were all in various states of undress, yet all of them almost seemed as if they were nobles, she stood there for a moment before she spoke.

''Master Saiitama has given us an order' she said, noting that many of the woman were started by her voice, as they turned to look at her.

''He wants us to get the captain to stop working'' she informed them, tho they didn't say anything she somehow knew what they wanted her to tell them how.

''All he said was that he wanted u to go and talk to him or just go to where he was and get him away from there'' she finished informing them tho she did add her own words into it.

They all dressed themselves and began to walk back to the bridge, their new clothing gave them the appearance of noble woman traveling thru their castle, the white halls made their colorful dress light up even more.

As they approached the bridge, they noticed how the blue ethereal light surrounded the captain and how holographic displays began to come to life around him. All around him the faces of strange faces that looked almost Human, yet had some sort of twist, that made them stick out.

Red skin, curved forehead, completely black eyes, hoofed feet and if she dared say it clawed hands and tentacle like appendages.

They were either mutants or zenos , she knew that they had brought people on board and if she were to be honest she was disgusted by the fact that mutants were on board and if they were zenos, then they should be executed at the spot. For a moment she hoped the captain was planing on that, but she stopped herself, she and the woman with her had a job to do and she was going to do it.

One by one they entered the bridge and present themselves to the captain, instinctively he began to place his hand on each one of them and began to look at their new clothing.

He noticed how they each had their own look and if she were to be frank, she saw the small marks of a smile.

Then she noticed it one of the woman had walked out another had taken a seat on the floor, near the captain's left foot, another near his right one another woman began wipe the dust from some of the various machines.

One of the woman had begun to play with the captains hair, slowly they all began to occupy themselves working keeping the captain's eyes away from the computers around him.

Then a plate of fruit, was placed next to the captain and a simple bottle of wine was opened poured onto a simple plastic cup and handed to the captain.

It was the woman that had walked out earlier, she had short white hair, a slender figure, which had a giant stomach sticking out of it and red lips with peach skin.

''Captain you need to rest'' the woman said

''No there's still to much to do, the navigation's systems found an old space station we might be able to stop there for a bit.'' he answered the woman

The woman for her part, took a yellow like fruit and put it in the captain's mouth 'Shh'' the woman said seductively ''You've done enough for today captain, please rest''the woman said

The next thing she knew the captain's eyes closed.

''So it was only pure stubbornness that kept you going'' the woman said ''Are you a traitor or are you an alley'' the woman said before a servitor had a lass pistal near her head.

The woman stopped she stared at the weapon aimed ta her ''Yet the machine spirits sing near you'' the woman continued, before stepping away from the captain

As if it were an instant she felt the weight of an impossibly horrific pressure near her. The woman herself turned with a fire in her eyes before falling to her knees.

She turned to see what it was and noted Saitama was walking into the bridge. His eyes glowed, clearly enraged.

''T, what's going on'' he asked her as he looked at her ''I felt the Tylor faint'' he said, before he looked at the wine and fruit. Immediately he ate a piece of fruit and drank straight from the wine bottle.

''They're both drugged'' Saitama said, his voice was now hard, every word was said in such a way that it could break the spines of every ones neck.

''I merely got him to stop working'' the woman said, tho she struggled to say the words

''Get out'' Saitama said, his words uttered in such away that it informed the woman that he wouldn't accept that any of them even try to go against him.

''T'' he said looking at her, stopping her exit from the bridge.

''Stay with him and watch him'' he said, before he walked out again. As he walked out she noticed the Inquisitor was watching the entire thing and the distinctive smile the red headed woman had.

As Saitamsa walked passed the Inquisitor she turned and followed him. As they both banished from sight, she turned and looked at the captain. ''My name is T. It's a pleasure to meet you captain Tylor'' she said

 

[blueayes]

Saitama for his part was angry not particularly at anyone, not even the woman that had drugged Tylor, but at himself. Three weeks had passed and already they had to flee from monsters, fight some kind of skeleton infection and to top it all of.

Tylor had already been betrayed.

He knew something was wrong when the dam tatoo on his back began to itch and instantly he knew that something had happened to the man. For some reason it made him feel what the man felt.

He was scared.

He stopped to look at the people and noticed how they had begun to separate between themselves, the hoved footed ones in one group, the black eyes in another and the ones with vended foreheads in another. Still there were normal people and they had their own group.

It seemed that things were happening both outside and inside the ship.

''Saitama, get over here'' he heard Tylor say over the speakers

He casually walked back, when he arrived he noticed the woman he had begun to call T holding the captain's hand.

''One of two things, one I've been drugged, or two I'm just bloody tired. Saitama most of what we have on board are aliens, they're not Human, be careful'' Tylor struggled to say, his voice was strained as he attempted to power thru the drugs.

Saitama just stood there and said nothing as he felt Tylors consciousness give way allowing him to finally rest.

''Stay with him.'' Saitama just said, to T and walked back out. There was little people could do on board except that for now. But he had a plan now, he knew of a way that he could keep everyone busy and keep an eye on all of them.

Tylor would be able to know about it soon enough, he could already feel the drugs wearing off. Somehow some way Saitama felt as if the amount taken by the captain, should have killed him.

He walked back to the area where everyone was being kept and ordered them to follow him into the hall. If they were going to separate themselves into groups then he would use that. He had already checked the rooms on the first floor and Tylor had looked into them, so he knew they were safe.

''All of you you can ether go left or right, but you all can only get one room per group. You all separated into them anyway so it's up to you to clean them.'' he announced to them.

The rooms were giant and it was obvious that they were meant for other things, but for the moment they were ideal for this situation.
Moments later the people began to separate themselves and began to clean.

 

[blueayes]

He awoke thoe he did struggle to open his eyes, there was a slight weight on his lap, it was the same girl that had asked him to help her earlier. Tylor for his part took a moment to look at her, in reality it took him a moment to process everything.

Like why was her head on his lap and why was she holding his hand?

He looked around the room for a bit and noticed that the servitors were still working and as odd as it may seem, they looked slightly cleaner. He moved his hand over her head, moving the back hair that covered her face and noticed that despite her pale look, she did have slightly pink lips. Her skin despite everything she had gone thru.

Was smooth and somewhat elegant.

He smiled at her and immediately caught himself, this universe was hell and he needed to get out, not enjoy the sights.

''Bring up the report, what has been going on since I've been asleep.'' he said while whispering, for some reason trying not to wake up the woman. He still didn't know her name.
All of the infected ships were clean, Saitama was watching over the refuges and the Kosoyate was now free from any infection.

He also noticed that they were headed to a lot of debris and if they wanted to reach Prospero quickly enough, then they had to right thru the graveyard.

It was made of hundreds of destroyed ships, something like space stations and a lot of rocks, that had buildings built into them. The forgotten remnants of a war.
That's when he saw it, straight in the center of all the debris a single titan, completely intact and somewhat operational.

Tylors heart nearly stopped it had noticed them, the ships readings flared and it was only pure luck that the ship's automatic defensed used the tachyon drives to steer them away and avoid the shot.+

This caused them to hit more and more debris, as they began to avoid more and more attacks from the machine. Normally this wouldn't have been a problem except, the Kosoyates size made it act as an actual moon, with its own gravity.

They were dragging debris and this slowed them down significantly, the various flared, but if they turned them off or any shield for that matter it could mean death.

He had to risk it, at this point it was either fight, do a deep warp jump or pray they didn't die.

The remnants of a ship that had a giant face painted green, with an abnormally large lower jaw, told him that fighting was a bad idea. So he gave the order and jumped.

There are times that fate really hates you. No really, that girl must really despised you, Tylor thought to himself.
He had jumped hoping to avoid fighting and thankfully he had managed to get the ship out of the warp, but he ended up straight in the middle of a fight between the Imperium and what looked like the Tau.

To make matters worse, he had aliens on board and the warp drive was over headed and needed to cool.

There was no option he had to fight. The problem was both sides were about to attack him, that's when something that even he couldn't have expected happened.
The ork ship from earlier wasn't abandoned or destroyed, how did he know that…. Well because the damn thing had followed him and hd just about cut its way into real space.

The orks however didn't hesitate Tuyor didn't even think they noticed anything except a big fight, seeing as how they just opened fire on everyone. The ork ship could give the Kosoyate a run for its money on sheer fire power. A beeping noise alerted him that a small jump was possible, so he did it and ended up escaping the fight.

Unknown to Tylor however his appearance along with the ork ship, had severely weakened the Tau, allowing the surviving Imperials to win the battle. Nearly all of the debris he had pulled along with him was dragged down into the planet, destroying nearly all areas of importance for the Tau.

Tylor only exhaled and watched emptiness of space.

 

[blueayes]

The bridge suddenly turned cold, Tylor could feel his skin tighten with the lowering of the temperature. His breath became visible and time seemed to stop.

''Look at you, if the woman onboard weren't pregnant, you would have yourself the ideal harem'' voice said.

Tylor looked all around the bridge but failed to see any one.

''Calm down my employee'' the same voice said directly under him and to his surprise he found his own face staring right back at him and immediately turn to see the sleeping woman whose head is on his lap.

''Word of warning only this room is frozen, so the rest of the ship and the universe is still going. To everyone else you're talking to yourself'' he continued.

''Your R.O.B'' Tylor said.

''That's it. No Send me home! Or Please I'm begging you! Well you're no fun'' he said mockingly thoe he never moved away from the girl.

Tylor simply stared at him.

The creature briefly vanished only to appear sitting in the chair next to Tylor ''Well whatever, two counters are down, eight more to go. Word of advice those beacons of yours are self replicating, if they're in space and if they have enough material. Yes there are more beacons onboard, but can you tell me which am I talking about…. That's right you cant.''

''Why? Well because that's part of the fun.'' he said mockingly.

''Why am I here'' Tylor asked

''You have a knight'' he said as the image of Saitama appeared on screen, ''A castle'' the image of the Kosoyase appeared next.
''A healer, a hole bunch of pawns some ass for those times you need to rest and a rogue, plus some neat toys'' he said as the image of the refuges, the pregnant woman, the Inquisitor and all of the ships and weapons flashed one after another.

Tylor just kept quiet.

''Do you think you can just keep retreating back into your work, that you can just ignore the reality of your situation, even if you do call him, it will be to late. They know about you'' e said as he began to spin around in the chair.

''You haven't answered my question, why am I here?why am I in this universe?'' Tylor asked, this time his voice rising

R.O.B for his part just kept spinning in the chair ''Why my boy. Well why not. The truth is even if I wanted to I couldn't send you home, the you there died, no one alive could see my add, therefor your dead, but not in hell…..Think of it this way''

''You were going to die from an aneurysm, however I caught you before you fell and stuck you in here, you have a new body, an ability to summon anything or anyone you need regardless of who it is and the best part you still get to go to your Heaven or Hell.''

''I can't do anything about that and those five sure as hell can't do anything ether'' he said , as he began to laugh at the end of his explanation.

''........So why did you help me.''Tylor asked, this time more patiently

R.O.B began to move his finger back and forth ''No my boy, I just showed up, you did it all. I merely put a spaceship the size of a moon in front of you. You're the one that did everything.'' he said finally stopping his rather joyful spinning.

Tylors eyes held a firm look, one that said that he clearly din't believe him.

''You didn't have to help them, you could have let Saitama kill her and you could have left them all behind on that demon world. But my boy, you didn't and you can't blame any of that on me'' he said he neared Tylors face.

''So what now?''Tylor asked.

''Now you do what you want. Not every world is attacked by chaos,not every world knows Space Marines exist. Not everywhere is constantly struggling to survive. This is my last and final attempt to sway you the other way, if you don't listen.
Then you didn't listen, if you did you did''R.O.B said before vanishing

Tylor just sat there

Time seemingly seemed to become still, yet somehow still progressing. Tylor just sat quietly in the captain's chair, few men and woman can ever truly describe his emotions. If one were to describe it, it would seem similar to someone lost in a city, there was nowhere to go, tho there was plenty of food, people and materials all round them.

The ships maps began to show that it would be only a week before they left arrived at the planet, honestly if Galactus couldn't send him home he hoped the guy could at least send him to a better universe.

He knew that the people around him could eventually learn the ships mechanics after all he had already learned a lot of them. Still they had food, water and weapons. No doubt the Inquisitor would take command of the ship.

The warp engines were still cooling and even shorter jumps had to be done, but judging by the amount of things Tylor had seen in such short amount of time he hoped they would hurry up. Between planets there was nothing except the tiny sparks of stars and the minor jumps forced the gallery fields to activate.

Somehow forcing a type of metal to cover all of the windows of the ship.

The Kosoyase's system picked up another batch of ruins, thankfully they could be avoided. Still the creature's words rang within Tylors mind.

In his Earth he was dead, nothing of this was that things fault, no it was his own. What exactly did that thing want from him, he was simply a man.

He wasn't a hero, most certainly not a leader and in all honesty. He wasn't an interesting person.

So what did that thing really want from him.
][][][][]
T

She woke from an uncomfortable sleep, after all sleeping from one chair n to another person's lap would do that to anyone.
She could feel his fingers move about her head and gently move her hair. Her skin tightened as his touch rang thru her, somehow someway she felt as if the two of them were the only ones that mattered in the entire universe.

T for her part had not felt like this in her entire life and because of it she didn't know what to do, somehow she knew that if he were to accept her, then she would be his.
T briefly lamented that the creature growing in her womb was not Taylor's son, though the sheer thought of knowing that she would do whatever possible to bear his son was a clear compensation.

She had no doubt that the creature would be as close to Human as possible, the captain's power was not to be questioned, but still. Anyone that had seen anyone in any position in power, would know was that nothing replaced a blood union.

No adopted children would ever be recognized. She had seen it many times before, she was a pleasure girl. But many pleasure girls and boys were the bastard children of nobles, that was the best life they could expect.

She felt him move and immediately after, she felt the ship slow down to a near complete stop.

''Hey, wake up'' she heard Tylor say in a soft voice.

T opened her eyes and acted as she has barely waking up and immediately noticed something that any other person would had beaten her for doing. She found she had drooled on him.

She immediately tried to clean her mouth and brace herself for the beating that was sure to come, only to realize he was smiling at her.

''Sorry for scaring you'' he said to her.

Tylor rose from his seat and began to walk out of the bridge, it was only the second or third time he had ever done so without a reason.

T could see the ethereal blue glow move with him with every step he took and with it the song of the machine spirits as he moved around them. It was as if they knew that they had been raised to serve him and were honored to fulfill their purposes.

T simply sat there watching him walk away, after all it wasn't her place to interrupt her master. Tylor however stopped turned around and waited for her, she hesitated for a moment and followed him.

T walked four steps behind Tylor, after all she was nothing more than someone that was beneath him and he he was captain. T had been a companion of ship captains before and so knew that only an equal walked side by side with them.

She saw Tylors hand and for the briefest of moments she felt as an inexperienced woman, she felt an unnatural desire to be able to hold it as they walked.

So caught up in her self indulge fantasies, that she failed to notice the distance they had covered and the fact that Lord Saitama stood in front of them.

''Feeling better'' Saitama asked

''.....Somewhat'' Tylor answer ''I'm about to try something, maybe it will work maybe it won't'' Tylor continued

''.....''Saitama simply looked at him

''Protect them ok'' Tylor said to Saitama before he vanished in a small light, alerting Saitama and T that he had teleported.

A screen immediately displayed Tylors location, he was on a barely habitable planet drawing a circle on the dirt with his finger.

T noticed that the aliens along with the few Humans briefly brought aboard began to gather around the viewing screen, they saw the Captain and wondered who he was.
T couldn't blame them but the should learn their place soon enough, Tylor was captain and they were nothing more than nuisances.

The it happened her unborn child began to kike and turn as if sensing some kind of great disturbance and then her eyes were met by the cool blue light of a full blown warp gate opened by the Captain.

She wanted to scream and so did everyone else, but the light was cool kind and inviting. It didn't force anyone to obey and if one were to simply say no, it would leave them alone.
So bright was the light that it would have blinded them all, T had little doubt that whatever the captain had done has not evil just incredibly powerful.

When the light began to settle, the unholy form of a true warp rift appeared. It looked similar to that of a turning bunch of blood, flesh and some sort of unknown material and it immediately spilled an untold amount of demon's, souls and if T dared and unknown amount of ships that immediately flew away.

T could hear the screams of both the aliens and the Humans on board, yet as she turned to look at Saitama, she saw the man stand there like an impenetrable fortress.

Then a blue magic circle wrapped itself around the planet and as if it were an instant, it cleared out the demons, untold numbers of un'dead banished, water seemed to begin to fill the once dry world and a type of energy blasted itself into the warp destroying thousands of greater demons before they even had a chance of exiting the warp.

The blue light washed over the Kosoyase and it somehow made it seem cleaner, healthier and if T was daring Pure in nature.

No one on board would ever know it but the blue light that in space was a tiny light, was in fact brighter than a supernova inside the warp.

Psykers all over the universe both Human and alien found themselves unwillingly unleashing the light into their worlds, forcing demons cults and monster away from their worlds.
Navigators found that their third eye unleashed the blue light into the warp cleansing it wherever they set their sight on.

Lost souls stormed into the only place that gave any sort of protection from the hellish realm the warp had become, further strengthening it as they worshiped this new God.

Nurgle for the first time was overjoyed and enraged but mostly overjoyed as someone had made so many creatures happy and therefor had empowered him. He was outraged as his diseases were washed away, from everyone save for his most determined worshipers.

Slaanesh was furious all of her drugs poisons and any attempt of corruption was stopped long before they ever reached this new enemy.

Khorn found that his servants were all washed away, the blood that strengthened them was washed away, preventing them from attacking.

Tzeech found that none of his tricks worked as the entity itself was prone to trickery itself and they both moved countering one another.

The Eldar for their part were horrified, one of the two lights had caused something and it was forcefully undoing an untold number of futures.

Yet it was on Terra itself that the greatest uproar was occurring. Robert Guilliman had just managed to enter the Imperial palace the renegade space marine Cypher at his side and was greeted with an enraging but unusual sight.

A massive woman with blue hair a short skit, pink sash and a hair ornament that was made with two small yellow orbs on the side of one large blue one. She was holding the Emperor's face, she did this as the Custodes and all of the Imperium's defenses attempted to force her away.

He was about to engage, when the Emperor glew a blinding golden light, when it dimed down she was gone and his father no longer resembled a corpse.

No he was now back in the appearance of his prime and his light shined even brighter, of the woman there was no trace. No one present would ever know it but, the woman had put back the missing pieces of the emperor's soul, while at the same time she had healed him.

It was when an uneasy silence took the throne room, that an event that shook everyone happen yet again. The Emperor opened his eyes.

Meanwhile T and everyone on the Kosoyase stood silent there in space was an ocean of blue light, like a stream that washed away all signs created by the captain.
She felt her heartbeat as if it was going to burst out of her chest and she heard a brief epp and noticed that the rest of the women were watching everything.

This had settled everything, the Captain was a demi God or perhaps one of the Emperor's sons, if not an illegitimate one. After all only someone like that could ever hope to do something like this.

[blueayes]

Everyone's eyes were greeted by a sight that none could have ever expected, there on the plane that was once in the verge of death, a planet that at the very edge of that of one could have ever called livable was now filled with blue sky's.

There were oceans covering it and clouds all over, this was impossible because the planet itself was once completely dry, no cloud covering whatsoever. Yet it was the twin geysers of water that spilled into space, from both the northern and southern hemispheres that spilled into space that somehow seemed as the y entered the warp.

The child in her womb moved and for a brief instance T was met with the impossible sight of an innumerable amount of aliens and humans literally walking on top of one another, desperately trying to reach a small river that forced the demonic nightmares around them.

The closer they neared the river the more strain it caused the demons, many were dragged away by the abominations, yet those few lucky enough made it thru and were met with a cool sensation of safety.

Still T could somehow tell that what she saw was nothing more than an echoed from something that was no longer there.

The sound of footsteps brought her back to reality and in an instant she saw Tylor standing in front of Saitama. he noticed that they were already in a deep conversation and that told she was wherever she was for some time.

Still Tylor began to walk and she immediately notice that the cool ethereal light had become a light blue mist like power. Each step Tylor took made it disperse, the light itself seemed to clean the air around him.

The people parted away allowing Tylor to walk past them, T simply followed him and somehow she felt inferior to him. How was that possible she didn't know.

Tylor for his part was only in thought not a deep thought, he knew that a spell like that one needed for everything to be brought together. That was the main reason he wanted to reach Magnus's planet, but still.

He remembered how he drew the circle and simply said Eris wears pads, immediately after a blue light filled the area around him and next there was an ocean around him.

That was it, nothing of any real importance had happened because of his failure. Still he returned to the bridge and noticed the woman had followed im, within moments the ship was in motion once again.

Tylor would never know but within those small moments Aqua the Goddess he had tried to summon was ended summoned, however his actions also allowed the demons of the warp to enter their Heaven and were dispatched in an instant.

Any remnants erased, even the Gods of Chaos themselves were tossed around like ragdolls.

One of heaven's elite had come to deal with the situation, it was he who prevented Aqua from freeing the Emperor from the throne. That was his punishment for his crimes.

The Lord of Change tried to trick r force him to do something. It however saw any of the Chaos Gods tricks of sheer stupidity.

''Fool, when God created anything. The Word was conceived, how can language or communication exist if God did not create it''

Therefor the Word exist as all, even you.'' it said as it struck the Chaos Gods in such away that it severely affected them. It immediately took the water Goddess and sealed the gate shut behind them. Nothing from their realm would ever be summoned again.

 

[blueayes]

T could feel her heartbeat shake in an unnatural way, the sheer twisted nature of the air itself was rendered mad by the presence of chaos, that in this place made it almost a solid object. Yet at the same time remains breathable and available.

She could see the towering creature walk away from one of the prisoners in front of her and make its way towards her.

T's skin tighten as the temperature surrounding the creature chilled the goo like substance that the air had become. Her near naked form hanged from the operating table.

''Noo'' T said weakly. But the creature didn't answer, she just felt her eyes widen in pain and terror, then a blue light stretched itself into existence, reaching out to her. With it were a pair of golden orbs burning brightly, with a powerful golden flames that seemed as if they were contained in a dark furnace that could barely contain it.

The blue glow was cool, yet firm in a way that it soothe the surrounding area, their near presence alone reconstructed the air freeing it from the madness.

T's head shut up, the moment she felt something touch her and was immediately met with the face of the Captain. His face showed a worried expression.

It took a moment for T to realize she had been crying. She briefly looked down and noticed that she had left an even greater stained in Tylors clothing, yet she didn't expect a beating, no the captain hadn't done so the last time.

Of course the first time could have been your one and only pardon, yet she had no reason to believe he would strike her now.

''Are you okay''Tylor asked her

T simply nodded, she slowly remembered her time as an experimental subject and what they had done to her, to them.

''Come on, we've both been staying there too long'' Tylorr said to her as he slowly rose up from his seat and waited for her to follow. Yet as she began to walk behind him, she found that he would wait for her to reach him and continued to walk.

Every time she would stay behind four steps he would wait for her, until she caught up and he began to walk again. They did this six or seven times until she finally gave up and followed besides him.

Tylor lead her to a room, one fit for an important member of the crew. There was a large bead, covered by silk and cotton sheets. The rooms walls were decorated with energy lights that made them seem warm the moment she laid eyes on them.

She instinctively made her way to the bead and sat on it, as she turned to look at Tylor she noticed he was opening a door and found that there was a shower, toilet and some other machinery.

The captain walked to another door and was met by the sight of various luxurious dresses, suits and footwear.

He took a long red nightgown and T didn't even know when he had begun to see her in such away. After all she was quite bloated with the child in her womb. She could feel her eyes widen as she took the gown and began to undress only to have him, place his hand on her stopping her and hearing him say that she needed to rest.

She felt disappointed and honestly foolish, yet most of all she felt an overwhelming shame. He hadn't looked at her as a companion and much less anything more. There have never been an instant he had shown anything more than just simple acceptance of her.

Yet her heart couldn't accept it and the child inside her seemed as it were calling to him. Yet its cries remained unheard.

Tylor was not its father and therefor had no reason to acknowledge it, yet her T felt something deep down inside her reach out to the child somehow soothing his cries.

Somehow she knew that it would be a boy and that Tylors power had washed away a large part of whatever had been done to him, to her. Yet as she began to fully undress and noticed that a mirror showed her reflection, she began to smile.

She couldn't remember the last time she smiled like she was now.

She looked beautiful. Yet she couldn't help but wish that the captain were holding her from behind, his arms reaching to her stomach and increasing their child.

T would never know it but she unwillingly let out a set of words that marked her own subconscious thoughts. 'Soon, my son, I will bear one of his and you will be an older brother'' she smiled at this, tho she never knew she had said it.

 

[blueayes]

Maria

She had observed the man exiting the room without his bed wench, though the creature may have had the shape of a man, but no man could conger nor much less control the creatures and beings she had seen it control.

The room was a living quarter with a light green color that separated it from the red cross of the medical bays or the silver colors of the forgeries.
Even the baths had a light blue color, while the agricultural floor had a great green tree.

Each color varied in its strength, the darker they got the tighter security that was employed in keeping then well guarded. The same went for the lighter shades of colors demonstrated that a newborn infant could be left there and no harm would ever come to it.

During her exploration she had uncovered a vast armory filled with weaponry so sophisticated that the Adeptus Mechanicus would have gone in a frenzy sf such discoveries.

In her shameful yet admittedly childlike excitement, she foolishly believed that she could force the man into obedience.

It was only after the ships teleportation system had delivered her to the gathering of the people, all of which who were surrounding the various pick displayers that she realized the sheer stupidity of her actions.

She saw the man, no the creature describing one of his runs and instantly was she met with the presence of a power so great that she was but n unseen speck t it. Its min was of such power that it was already echoing thru the immaterium.

Maria in all honesty knew that if she were to ever speak of what she had seen in those few seconds, that no one would ever believe her.

There hidden in the blinding blue light a woman stood. Her hair was a deep shade of blue, that held an ornament with two small orbs surrounding one large orb.

She had a light clean texture of her skin, her extremely small skirt revealed her ass, yet her top was covered by a white blouse.

But what had caught her attention was how the woman held the Captain in a loving motherly embrace.

Even from the ship, Maria could hear her words.''Don't worry child, you have suffered much and will have to endure. But do know that it all will eventually end'' the woman said, as the warp rift opened above the planet.

Within the passing of a moment she drew upon so much power that Maria could have died by its sheer magnitude.

Marias heart beat in such away that she felt as if she were staring straight at a greater demon single handedly, naked weaponless and her mind assaulted and her soul being stuck, all at once.

To put it in words Maria was completely exposed to this creature and was powerless to stand against it.

It was in that moment that Maria bore witness to the massive shadow of the creature known as Saitama, present and eternal.
It was massive yet it covered everyone around him, that is everyone except her and that man's bead wench.

Then as quickly as it had started the moment, the light and the woman were gone. In their place was a blue planet that glue like a star within the warp.

From this star a river stretched, a river of such unnatural nature that the souls did everything possible to reach it.

Still as the moments passed she bore witness to the Captain returning to the ship and to him leaving the the room as the woman followed him. Even as the people regained their bearings and went back to whatever acts they were doing before everything happened.

Yet even tho it shamed her Maria was rendered speechless from her visions.

It was for these reasons that she was currently stalking the captain. He hardly ever left the bridge and for some reason he always left behind that weapon he used.
This time however the man was headed to a room she had already ventured into earlier, as the man entered she was caught by the smell of fresh water.

Moments later the man left and she immediately followed, but decided to see what he had entered to investigate. There in a room she was certain she had already inspected, was a stone spring surrounded with green grass and flowers of all kinds. A various assortment of trees were growing and the air was cleaner than she had ever breath in.

So caught up was she in her self indulgent that she failed to hear the captain walk up to her.

''The Axis Church can get things done. And because you can get things done, even if it doesn't go well, it's not your fault! It's society's fault that things don't work out!

You can run away from unpleasant things! That doesn't mean you lost! Because, as they say 'Sometimes running away is winning'!

The answer you come to after being in doubt is usually something you'll regret, no matter what you choose! If you're going to regret it anyway, do whatever's easiest for you in the moment!

Do not fear growing old! Not even God knows whether you will be happy in the future, so you should, at least, be happy now!

Eris pads her chest!'' he said as he walked up to her.

Maria almost instantly jumped, as her eyes were met with the man's face as he held a bottle of wine in front of her.

''Wanna join me for a drink'' he said as he walked up to the spring and began to pour himself a drink in one of the various glass cups that were in the kitchen.

''I haven't seen you at all, except far on the security cameras. So did you find what you were looking for?'' he asked her.

''This ship it's bast easily a hiding ground for various kinds of unsightly beings' Maria answered.

''I know, that's why I had Saitama keep everyone in the higher floors'' he answered her, before he took a deep drink from the glass and began to pour a second one.

''By the way my name is Tylor'' he introduced himself to her.

''Maria'' she answered as she took the wine bottle. At that moment she contemplated shattering it on the man's skull, but immediately dismissed such thoughts. If it were that simple to vanquish this creature she would have already done it.

''Her name was Aqua'' he said, as he looked at the glass in his hands. As he puffed his cheeks full of air before immediately exhaling.

''Where are we going?''she asked him.

''To be honest I don't know. Up until now I've been running on panic mode. Now that I've calmed down, I can honestly say that this ship shouldn't have many Imperial locations'' he said, before pausing to take a drink.

''The problem is, that up till now everyplace we buiseted\passed has been under attack by some kind of insane monster or alien creatures.'' he finished speaking.

A pregnant pause seemed to materialize between them before Maria was able to say a word. She just began to drink. ''So where is this ship going'' she asked

''There is a location marked by the navigation system, that's where we're going. You can leave if you want, take any ship you like, but know this. There is a growing danger in space we have encountered three enemies so far, and each time this ship's weaponry had been next to useless against them'' he said to her.

For what seemed like an hour the two of them drank in silence, neither of them dare or even made the slightest attempt to re start the conversation.

Maria herself knew that they were somewhere in the uncharted regions, an area where the light of the Emperor did not reach, that alone was terrifying, the man besides her knew that if he were to leave, then there would be no one left on the ship in a short amount of time.

He was their only hope of survival and he knew it, that didn't mean he liked it.

Maria didn't know when but she passed out from the amount of alcohol. By the time she woke up, she found that the man was gone and she was covered by a light pink blanket. She momentarily enjoyed the grassy floor, before shooting up and inspecting her clothing, searching for any signs of being raped when she slept.

Thankfully the man had passed out on enjoying her. Even as she let out a breath she didn't know she had been holding in, did she feel the ship shake, from a powerful impact. Then again and again.

These were the acts of a battle in space.

Maria rose from her improvised bed and ran towards the bridge, each time the battle would end before it started. During these times the ships teleportation sistem deactivated forcing her to run.

This time however that was not the case, as she was met by the sight of dozens of smaller ships surrounding the one she was currently in.

Somehow they all seemed like predators.

''Attention unknown ships, you have attacked us without reason. If you do so again we will retaliate. I repeat any further aggression will be met with greater force'' the captain said thru the communication system.

Maria could see the man was momentarily taken back to the fact that he actually received an answer. ''We have ships full of starving people many of us are wounded. Give us your food and any vegetation and we will let you go.'' a man's voice echoed thru the bridge. His desperation echoed thru the bridge.

''I'll give you a counter offer. I'll send you a ship fill it with with your injured and we will heal them'' the captain answered back before being forced to stop as the man cut him of.

''So what so you can kill them and trike us'' the man answered. It was clear now that he had long since stops thinking rationally.

That was when Maria saw dozens of tight beams fly of from the Kosoyase and immediately strike one of the enemy ships one at atime.

Each time their lights became dimmer and immediately was assaulted by various defence drones, some Humanoid others were simply surrounding them. When the last one had been hit and all communication had been cut of.

Did the ship she was on begin to move forward, dragging the attacking ships behind it. Again the screens were displaying various battles, the mechanical monstrosities were undertaking.

It was on these moments that she realized that the people they were fighting, were members of the Imperial guard.

It made sense considering the ships were all old ships, but that was the key word. They were old ships, broken down, barely workable and if she weren't currently seeing them.

Maria would have thought they were being controlled by Orks.

Already ships were exciting and making their way towards the enemy crafts and the people were being placed on them. Men-woman-children, were all being forced on to these and were being shipped back to the Kosoyase.

Another ship flew taking all of the guards weapons, this entire ordeal took less than eighteen hours. The people on these ships were all starving-dehydrated and heavily injured.

Maria could see that those that had just been knocked unconscious by the machines, that they were taken to one of the rooms that had several beads in them. They were all left on them so that they could rest.
The injured were taken to another infirmary and were currently being treated. The woman, children and malnutrition were eating and were devouring all in front of them.
They ate as if they hadn't seen food in years.

 

[blueayes]

Imperium Planet Terra
The entire Imperial palace was in an uproar, the Emperor had recuperated his youthful appearance and even tho he had not spoken using words, he had communicated by taping his fingers on the Golden Throne. Thru the act of morse code, it had only been once that he had been enraged and acted upon it, when a member of the Lords of Terra suggested he had been tainted.

''If I was tainted I would have already laid waste to the Imperium'' the Emperors psychic voice roared, before throwing the wan across the room.

Even now he had the Lords of Terra, several members of the space marine chapters as well as a few scribes looking over the laws forcing them to shorten them and removing the areas that were to contradictory, or simply left those in position of power completely excluded from the law.

He had managed to hold onto just enough power from the mysterious Goddess that he managed to let the light of the astronomicon further and brighter than ever before. Tho he would never allow the Mechanicus from Mars know it, he had ordered Guilliman to gather the most promising tech Marines and entrusted to them the creation of greater machines, the Imperium needed innovation, something that had long since abandoned.

Few people would ever know the sheer complexity of his thought, tho if anyone were to ever know how Human they were.
They would be surprised of just how Human the Lord of mankind was.

He remembered Horus, Sanguinius and Magnus. He held back a tear not of grief but of regret, he had failed Humanity and his sons.
Still he didn't contemplate on old memories as there were things to be done, he demanded the Aclesearkies appearance and demanded to know why they forced the worship of himself.

He was no God and that he understood, that people eventually started to worship him, that was no reason to kill or torture anyone that questioned it, or out right worship a non chaotic deity.

He briefly contemplated the image of the man, the Goddess had showed him and thought about the infants with him. He knew what he would do to the man, he would grant him several concubines and some sections of space, all the while he would take full advantage of the comic books and mangas the man was using to gain power.

He understood why she told him about the man, she knew that her time was brief and that the two would need each other.

Still there were many things that needed to be taken care of and the current libraries were so filled with contradictions that he forced millions of scribes to create, clear non contradictory books.

Just one hour into this and they had uncovered thousands of sabotages from ribal members of the royal families from several worlds. Nearly every one of theses records would be kept next to him, no one would be allowed to destroy the records.

To many questioned his actions, he ordered the guard to gain better equipment. From the core worlds of the Imperium, more and more changes were beginning to occur, not many people liked them.

However few people dared to question him and even tho it would be several years his new\old ways would eventually take hold and progress would slowly begin again.

The last act he did was to re create the Space Marine legions, chapters would remain but now even entire legions would exist again.
Their first task would be putting together the various Hive worlds, they would clean out all of the mutants from them and actually repair the city's.

Humanity was meant to exist as Humans, not as throne away material that only existed in the radioactive waste.
The first legions that would be reforged would be the Dark Angels, the Ultramarines, the Blood Angels, the Imperial Fist and tho many actually voiced their opposition.

The Thousand Sons, they however would be tasked with seeking out psychic individuals and training them against chaos. It would be them, who would be expected to create the enchantments against the foulness of the warp.

The blanks from all around would be handed to the Sisters of Silence.

The men would be taught everything the woman were taught, however they would receive additional training from the attendants of the Space Marines, while the woman would receive the same training of the sisters. Those woman that failed in their training, they would be taught how to be good mothers.

They would be tasked with being child bearers, nothing more was expected of them. Still he thought, plotted and watched over Humanity. His strength remained but he could feel the woman's power slowly vanishing and even tho, he could see and feel the stream of cleansing power.

It was to far away to actually do any good. Yet he could feel it somehow drawing the woman's power towards it and with it his own, it may take years but eventually he could acquire such power and make use of it.
He just hoped that nothing major occurred in the following years.

Maria
''Why didn't you just kill them?'' Maria asked Tylor, her voice holding a genuine curiosity. However even before the man began to speak there was a whisper near her ear.

''Think you're safe, child'' the whisper passed right by her, as if something had walked by her.

''I would have, if it wasn't for just how the ships are. Look at them they're falling apart and the people .
Well just look at them, they're just bones'' Tylor answered her.

''Also there's something else'' Tylor continued before pausing and pressing several buttons in front of him.

''....Well what is it?'' Maria asked\demanded.

''There's something messing with the Kososyase's systems. See those red bleeps out there.'' Tylor said as he pointed at one of the screens. ''Those are enemy ships there's nothing out there and the people's , well they didn't register at all.'' Tylor finished before pressing another set of buttons.

As Maria turned to look at the screen she could see that indeed there were various red lights beeping on the screen, yet as she turned to see the various planets and systems on display, she noticed that there were some sort of bright lights, that constantly changed color.

What are those lights'' Maria asked

Tylor briefly looked up to see what she was talking about and immediately answered ''Oh, those are the beacons we left behind''

Maria could see that the man in front of her was completely immersed in his work yet again, her presence was now forgotten to him.

Normally she would have been indignation by this act alone and would have immediately followed with a last shot to the perpetrators head.
Sadly, this wasn't an option, so she simply walked out of the bridge and set out to see and interrogate the nse foolish enough to attack them.

Her footsteps echoed thru the empty halls, their white silver walls gave the vast hull a feeling of solitude.

She could hear the quiet murmurs of the impregnated woman and their almost worthless conversations, she briefly paused as she heard a simple set of words.

''My baby, it feels something, something evil here'' one of the woman said.

In all honesty Maria was already aware of this, years in the Inquisition, had taught her t notice the presence of the great enemy ad she could tell that this entire situation screamed corruption.

She began to walk after her momentary pause.

The air seemed to turn somehow corrupted with insanity, yet at the same time it was cleansed. No doubt that creature in the ship's bridge was keeping everyone safe, from whatever was affecting this area of space.

Her long red hair, red colored power suit and clean peach skin, with red well fleshed lips, gave her seem as if she was the very definition of beauty or that of a picture surrounded by a white wall.

The metallic walls, twist tested along with the floor and sealing, she could see how they seemed to go up and down as she walked. It was as if she was going uphill or down a steep slope, at times she could swear that she was walking across the walls.

Then a blast of cool light made the corruption that played with her mind or the reality of the ship, tho she didn't know whitch was real or not. Either way it blasted the twisted form into non existence.

This confirmed it, the ma\creature was protecting them.


Even now she gained further information. The creature was powerful indeed, but it was certainly not omnipotent. This gave her a slight sense of closure and dread, closer to the fact that there was indeed a way to stop the man\creature if she needed to.


The matter how.


Fear for she knew that wherever this place was, he was the only thing keeping the madness from fully taking hold upon the ship. If he were to fall then she and everyone onboard would slowly succumb to the insanity.


Finally after an unknown amount of time, she passed the various alien races along with the demon\creature that sat on the floor reading another one of those picture books, while the aliens and people went about.

They were all cleaning, dusting and stripoing away the years of dist and thilth that had accumulated over the years.


She briefly thought about how the more important areas of the ship, were being cleaned by machines, while the living quarters were slowly being attended to one by one.


Still she knew that she had no time to think about such things.


Maria knew that she needed information and there was precious little time to acquire it. The ships being pulled by the one she was currently in, were all of various sizes. They were the remnants of an Empirial battle fleet, one that had been torn to pieces.


A dozen ships in total, so completely torn apart both from time and from combat. Yet even as she walked and finally reached the area where the sick and injured were being attended to, she noticed just how the cool blue light has travelled all across the room.


No one even turned to look at her, she could see their near skeletal forms and by simple observation she knew that none of them had the strength to speak.


A gelatin like uzz was blasted away by the blue light, at the moment she understood why the light was so present in this room. Whatever madness was engraved in these people, it was being snuffed out.


She was about to unholster one of the new weapons she had recently acquired, when one of the medical drones had a medical knife used for surgery near her throat.


''Citizen, please refrain from any alteration'' the machine said to her.


Maria simply let go of her weapon, there was no point of dying at the moment. Not because she feared death but because she had lacked any real reason to.


So she let go of her weapon and exited the infirmary.


The blue light echoed across the silver white hulls, it was now similar to a mist and she found that across the walls several children's faces screaming out in pain and horror, before the mist cooled and gently made their pain filled expression warm up and extinguished their suffering.


Maria didn't know when but the demon in the shape of a bald man, that called it self Saitama walked passed her.


Her heart nearly stopped, as the look in the creature's eyes held a power that glimmered in the twisted madness and cool blue light that fought against one another. He was like a giant that stalked the madness, as his white cape and yellow suit moved into the depths of the ship, burning thru the twisted form of the corruption.


She quietly followed him and was soon met with the sight of the starvin guardsmen and women, they were in such a pitiful state, that they nearly completely seemed more suited for the morgue then for the battle field.


Again the gelatin like substance was present, however the creature struck it with such force that it made it burn away..


She was about to begin to question them when the creature prevented her from doing so. His hand stopped her from uttering a word and at that moment Maria knew that he had protected her from.


Every single one of the people present was covered in the jelly like substance, their eyes were white. No one present was fully conscious, their bodies were on auto pilot.


It was at this moment that Maria cursed the captains stupidity for allowing them entrance to the ship, when she caw the mist began to ripple like water around the peoples feet.

It was this strange blue liquid that forced the gelatin like substance to flee now however there was no safe place for it, the mist was now growing in its presence, the glow was becoming stronger as the moments passed and the liquid like substance began to dissolve it.


Saitama walked forward powering thru the sheer thickness of the goo, still Maria could see and tell that something was wrong.

There was no sound coming from the people present and even further than that she noticed there was no sense of smell or taste.


She walked forward with the creature and realized that there were people urinating on the walls, or defecating , they all had the white people's eyes and the gelatin substance covered them.


They finally reached the next room and uncovered a room filled with children, they were similar to the adults, except there was no movement present. The infants were being watched by the machines, who in turn glowed brightly by the cool blue ethereal power.


It was at this moment that Maria realized that there was no point in interrogating anyone, for none present amongst the refugees was in control of themselves.


Yet the creature walked deeper into the room and opened another door, this one however had no lighting in it. She began to follow it only for its glowing yellow golden eyes to meet her own, the sheer fury held within them made her understand that she would have been nothing more than a nuisance or worse liability, to him.


There was something onboard and he was going to meet it and grant it a welcome aboard.


Still she was an inquisitor and so pushed forward regardless and was met with a sight she would have never anticipated.


There in the depths of the un lightroom was the very mark that had allowed the ship to be reborn and regain its life, the horse like shape glowed with such intensity that it was nearly blinding.


The soul reason why the room had no light was because the light was shining on a fixpoint.


She briefly held a scream, as a tentacle barely missed her face, when the red glub of Saitama caught it. There hanging in the emptiness of the room, defying the laws of physics, was a warp tear, fighting against the light of the captain's power.


Every time a tentacle sprung forth the light dissolved it, but if one was too strong, Saitama caught it and burned the accursed thing.

She tried to move, to speak or simple act but found that such abilities were now gone for her.


The only thing she could do was stare at the ever present battle, that repeated itself over and over again. How long did she remain that way she would never truly know, only that all of a sudden it had ended and in that very moment.

She was assaulted by the smell of urine, feces, blood, sweat and the various sounds all from the rooms she had left behind.


She called for a teleportation to the bridge and was met by the sight of it and found that the Captain was covered in sweat, gasping for air.


''What the fuck was that thing'' he gasped before teleporting away and one of the screens showed him leaving behind a beacon. Somehow the communication system displayed that there was no trace of the ones they had left behind.

 

[blueayes]

E.A grinds reality to before creation was even created or long after it has ended.
It is nothing in its purity, all dimensions are stretched, grinned and un'done.

 

[blueayes]

She felt her heartbeat as she began to walk forward, the air in her lungs entering and exiting her body. The blood pumped thru her veins, each step she took felt like an eternity, each one was slow nearly non existent.

The moment her feet touched the silver, gray like floor it echoed and as if it was but a second she was standing next to the ship's control system.

This didn't make any sense, no it infact did her mind was not her own. At the moment whatever was trying to enter the ship, had affected her more then she truly wished to believe.

Her body was operating in normal time, but her mind was so far behind. Then he appeared in a blue light, the teleportation system was now resonating with his power.
With him were each one of the pregnant woman from before, accompanying them were several of the infants rescued from the skeletal planet.

Children's eyes filled with dread and confusion met her own.

Again the man began to press several buttons and the screens began to show different floors, each time one of the floors showed any sign of corruption or vanished , he let oup a concentrated pulse of blue light.
It was nearly blinding, the blue cool light soothed away, the people's fears. Maria understood now why he had gone to retrieve these people even tho they were clearly a liability.

He was worried about them.

Then a pulse of blue light passed her, then another and another, until they were blasted past her in such great numbers that she neither could have known just how many had been casted or just where had they gone.

Maria could hear, the deep exhaling of someone gasping for air and noticed that the captain, was now completely drenched in sweat.

A beeping sound began to echo thru the bridge and the screens began to display the beacon's signal. It was interesting, because it didn't show any planets or anything at all for that matter.
Only that there was a ship and that it was moving in circles around, the recently placed beacon.

Again Tylor's gasping for air caught her attention and Maria noticed that his nose was now bleeding. Whatever was going on, combating it was truly taking its toe on him.

And that's when she saw it drawn in his own blood a circle similar to the ones she had seen him draw before, except this one was neither great nor did it glow, in the same spectacular way the other two summons had.

Instantaneously the captain began to move, Maria could see him looking over old logs engine reports, star charts and the last locations of everyone on board.
Then the look of sudden realization hitting him, Maria could swear that the look of madness briefly passed right through the man's face, as he activated the warp engines and smiled as nothing happened.

The ship shook violently as something hit it, it wasn't until the screens began to show the dark emptiness of space covered in stars that the captain sat down.
The sound of him almost passing out from dehydration as well of exhaustion, gave right away that now was the best time to strike.

However the blue ethereal light blasted out of the room and into the ship itself told her that the nightmare was long from over.
Maria for her part simply sat down and waited for her heart to slow down. She had just passed two hours if not more inside the warp without any control coming to claim her from beyond the veil.

 

[blueayes]

Maria was about to realize a word when in a moment she realizes that the people that once surrounded him are now gone, the only one that remained was the captain Tylor.

She could see the thick cold balls of sweat drip from his forehead, how they ran down his hands, feet and back leaving behind small puddles of tench filled liquid.

''You okay?'' Tylor asked her

''What was that?'' Maria asked him, using every force of her will trying to force her voice to remain firm.

''We were somewhere inside the warp itself. I don't know how we got there, but it nearly took us'' Tylor answered her, tho his breathing seemed to slowly be brought under control. He answered her before briefly teleporting away, again Maria could see him unleashing another beacon.

Few words if any could describe Maria's feelings about it, those beacons were essential or them. That much had become apparent more than once, yet her rage sooth away in the realization of the captain's intention.

An intention that proved true, she could see the changing lights of the beacon meet with the one left behind and for a brief instant Maria could swear that the souls of so many Humans and aliens were being drawn to them.

She now understood this was the captain's plan, should they ever be caught in that accursed place they now had a way of emerging from it. The danger of being caught, would always be present, but it was better than nothing.

8-7
She could hear the sounds of footsteps echoed all around her and the sensation of fingers moving about every corner of her body, not a single place remained untouched.
She was about to lash out , when the blue light blasted right past her again, this time however bathe her in its cool warm touch.

But it felt as it burned something of her, as her skin itched in such away, that if it was possible she would have torn of her armor and flayed her own skin of.

Suddenly her eyes were met with the captain's own, somehow someway, she was laying on the floor, her legs were spread open, and she could tell that she had nearly torn off her own face.

Besides her was the insignia of She Who Thirsts drawn in blood.

Tylors touch filled her with such ecstasy and pleasure, that if she was not a trained woman, she would have thrown him onto the floor and enjoyed every moment with him.

However Tylors hands glew yet again and the ecstasy was sooth away.

''Feel better'' he asked her

Maria simply nodded, yet as she was about to speak Tylor began to talk.

''I have good news and bad news. The good news is I know what's happening, the bad news is. ….'' he paused as if it was difficult for him to put his mind into the thought.
''This entire place is completely corrupted and if we want to escape. We're going to have to destroy this place in its entirety.'' Tylor told her as the image, of a massive set of flesh and tentacles stretched out from space into the very realm itself.

Maria simply stared at the screen, her lips felt dry as she moved her head, too see just where the captain went, she noticed that her hand was now glowing blue. Yet she still felt completely drained and in this state she was completely defenseless.

She could see the captain taking hold of that lance like weapon of his and vanishing as he teleported away.

Yet somehow she immediately felt a set of hands take hold of her, even through her armor ''Such a good price. All wrapped up and ready'' a hissing voice said.

Even thru her armor she could feel its fingers move about her body, how they slowly moved true her , she could feel it trying to cut thru the blue light.
But as it moved up to her chest, that she was met with the sight of a dripping like fluid and a set of tentacles slowly stretching towards her face.

Even as it moved towards her face, Maria could see a strange light flicker itself into existence and a howling shureek shake the very ship itself. Lightning bolts of multiple different colors erupted, how the twisted form of what should have been space, turned and mixed as the energy impacted it.

Instantly the goo, that was upon her reeled back and squirmed its way away from her.

She cursed her helplessness, her paralyzed body and the fact that she felt deep down inside her, from the very deepest part of herself.

Her desire to have that man or his creature besides her.

The thunderous sounds of a storm raged all around, there would be no shelter from it and another set of hands taking her and lifting her of the ground.
Maria prepared herself for the worst, only to be met with the red glob of Saitama's gentle hand as he carried her to one of the many empty chairs.

The blue light was now so intense that it was nearly blinding, not even shutting her eyes shut could she hope to shield them from its intense glare.

Then it was all over and the captain appeared surrounded with a waves of un light, that somehow seemed as if electricity coursed through his body. He vomited blood and digested food.

Only the beeping sounds of the incoming planets, star systems and millions of dead ships were proof, that whatever madness had consumed this area of space was now gone at least momentarily.

The broken, hulls of both Human and alien spaceships floated uselessly in the emptiness of space. Forming the crescent moon with the large circle inside it.

Maria could feel her body responding to her again, as the sensation of the stif armor plating of her power suit greeted her.

Still the gasping air of the captain walked forward and began to order the ship for any life signs only for the ship's systems to inform him that there were none to be found.

She didn't know when but Tylor was near her soon enough, as she found herself being carried by Saitama and taken to one of the rooms. There she was laid on one of the beads and was allowed to sleep. Maria could only close her eyes.

''Past the empty streams of twisted dreams and distant please. It is there that they fought and killed a Star God.''
''Near the world so true that it is blue, it is there that paradise was brought.'

The Eldar were shaken no more could they see, no more were their visions of the future reliable. At the moment fates separated were uniting, those that should have never been born were born, those that should have never been saved were saved. Prophecies were being undone while others were being ignored completely.

All the while newer paths were being forged. They needed to act and act now, should those two flames reach their destination then who knew what could happen.

While the Eldar looked into what was needed to occur in the warp the Lord of Change was enraged-happy-confused and number of other feelings that no Human could ever understand.

Literally trillions of plans had just been undone, he had back ups, sure but that wasn't the point or perhaps it was.

Still the matter was that something was burning brightly inside the warp and it's avatar was a sour spot that needed to be dealt with.
If it could do this much damage now, when it was at its weakest, then who knew what it could do when it reached its destination.

The Lord of Decay was overjoyed he could see such a blue stream filled with souls, all so happy, so he plotted to give them his various gifts. Except his infections were undone by the cool blue stream of power and that angered him. Still it was just a matter of time.

Still Isha the Eldar Goddess in her cage of rust and diseases plotted, there was a brief instant, a tiny window she could use to escape her captor. But she needed to be careful, should the Lord of decay catch wind of it, then all of her plans would be for not.
][][][
The Captain of the Imperial Fist exhaled his breath tired, though his powerful body and all inspiring nature hid his exhaustion.
For hundreds of years, they had been alone, cursed to an existence of solitude surrounded by enemies, unable to fully explore or expand into the surrounding systems.

The navigators long since dead, now however ever since the Kosoyase the moon sized ship, this was no longer the case.

For five months they had used the single ship,they traded for the rather significant amount of food.
Its navigation system became essential and absolutely invaluable, even now this fellow Astartes had been copying the systems onto the old ships, they had salvaged all those years ago.

Years upon years that had cut true the resolves of his and his brothers will, had driven into them that they might be the only Humans left.
One would never know it, but the fact that the two men had appeared in the system proved that they were, however the ship was too large and should they have tried to take it, then……

No one would ever understand, the sheer thrill of emotions he and his brothers felt at the incoming transmissions of entire battle fleets calling for help, men woman, abHumans and even some aliens, all calling for help.

Their instincts flared, overjoyed by the calls for help, the memories of the reason for their ascension from normal Human to the Godlike being he was now.

They could not abandon the planet to the various aliens that constantly assaulted them, so the lone ship flew into the emptiness of space.

For five months they fought and for five months they gathered the remnants of lost ships and slowly integrated them into the planet's defense.
The extremely few navigators no matter the age were forced to breed, they were desperately needed and when the first infant was born, was the moment that a ship was sent to see where the signals were coming from.

The report came in, he was shocked to find that a single beacon was left floating in space, guiding and functioning as navigation system, that allowed the ships to communicate in an incredible speed.

He ordered that any ship that could no longer function, be scraped and turned into a defense system.

He had no doubt that the two men had left it behind, otherwise they would have never asked for any new maps.
This continued until they nearly had ninety nine ships in total, filled with millions of personnel, the time had come to begin to spread into the nearby planets,. The original planet they had colonized would become a angry world, helping to feed, the new guard.

He looked at the paperwork and information that came in, displaying that a massive graveyard of planets and ships had just been uncovered, along with several billion survivors in a migrant refugee fleet.

They spoke of a planet sized ship, that flew into the belly of the madness that claimed their worlds and the majority of their people.
As he heard, the few recordings and how the aliens and Humans cried with joy as they described the sheer size of the battle in space and the sheer weaponry the ship displayed.

He believed it only to be lies, when a recording of the battle was sent to him. When he saw it, he knew that he had made the right decision, on not bringing forth the two mans ire.

The ship had succeeded in defeating what could only be called a demon attempting to create a massive body for itself. The sheer number of planet killing weapons alone, then the machines and ships. The Fist would have never succeeded, in defeating the two.

However when the ship didn't return, he believed that it had failed and its crew died somewhere, that is until the blinding blue light alerted the astropaths of something.

Finally after dispatching a single ship to go and explore, while gathering information, that he was impressed to find that several beacons had been laid behind and that a single planet.

Its blue glow was wat shined like a star of hope, within the madness of the warp. He ordered the words that he would never regret even if the inquisition itself wanted him dead.

He ordered them to stay there and keep the plant under their control despite their distance. The planet could purify and cleans anything, the elderly were revitalized and the navigators aged prematurely become young again.

On this day the months became six and his fleets were growing in a number unheard of, the beacons were acting as guiding lights to so many lost ships.
For those without navigators, the beacons technology would suffice, yet in all of this no other Astartes were found. That is not until today, a ship was uncovered filled with ancient Luna wolves, their armors dented and broken.

But their stasis chambers allowed them to live.

He watched as the few man released one of them and how the man demanded that the alarm be raised that Horus had betrayed the Emperor.
No one would ever truly understand just how alone the Imperial Fist captain and his brothers felt with those words.
