Imperial Guard Plot

the medic checks the bodies for any survivors while they keep surveying

they activate night vision and press onward

Their are none, they are at least 10 minutes dead.

They come to a narrow passage, which leads to a large room, inside they can see militia and traitor guard sorting weapons and ammunition, chatting amongst themselves, and they also catch a glimpse of the sister being dragged deeper into the cave, through a barred door.

New page.

one readies a breaching charge as they head to the door, camo cloaks keeping them hidden
-------------------------------
Arminius: *sighs* at least they died on holy ground. you six stay here, everyone else, back to the sentinels, we're going after the ones that got away.

One of the traitor guardsmen looks over, and scratches his head.
"Anyone there?"

*they cannot be seen*

He goes back to his duty's.
"You see what them ferals bought in? A Damn soriatas... I didn't think they had it in them"
Another traitor chimes in, his voice maniacal "always wanted myself a whore" he grins, and they both laugh, and the rest mutter under their breath.

they set their hot shot lasguns to quiet (shut up they have that. these ones do) and while still completely hidden gun down the traitors

They fall down, shells and casings spilling on the floor, but none remain living.

they make their way over to the door she's behind and one places a breaching charge. it goes off and they enter the room, tossing a flashbang before ducking out again. as it goes off they re-enter, quickly picking targets and gunning down any ferals and traitors

Many get gunned down in the confusion, their eyes burnt. The sister is standing, a traitor behind her holding her at gunpoint.
"One move, and I pull the trigger, I'll do it!"

he fires, the shot going right through the gun hand

The traitor yells, letting go of the sister from the shock; and she falls hard.
The man goes for a throwing knife, aiming the throw.

at which point another shot goes through that hand before he can throw it. a third goes between his eyes

The body slumps, trailing blood on the wall behind.

he and the others quickly go over to the sister
"are you alright sister?"

She nods slowly.
"My arms and legs are bound... do you mind?"

he draws his combat knife and frees her before handing her his pistol
"can you walk?"

"I can manage, you are from the hive city south of here I presume?" She picks herself up and dusts off her armour.

he nods
"I'm lieutenant Gaius. 43rd Germanic Sentinel auxilia."

"Sister Certanstin of the order of the sacred rose, and you have my thanks for coming to my aid" she looks around the room.
"What is going on with the imperial forces on this planet, we were attacked by guardsmen; with no warning"

"couldn't answer that ma'am. all we did was respond to a distress call."

"So you know nothing of these traitors?"

"not these exact ones. I know we've got a large scale traitor insurrection to the north"

"I see. Are they a potent threat?" The sister looks concerned.

"yeah...we have been at war with them for months now"

"And you havn't made any headway?"

"yeah...lets just say there are a lot of them. we've made some headway, but they've made their own."

"We should leave, more could be on there way"

they hear footsteps and he raises his weapon in the direction of then entrance

honus?

He is not Online it seems.

By the Omnissiah

"Hello? Is anyone there? Bloody Guardsmen, abandon me will they?! Well, next time they perform such debauchery upon their tanks and ask ME to sooth the Machine Spirits from their trauma..."
The heavily modified man makes heavy footsteps as he walks around.

OOC where is he exactly?

OOC: Decided to make it anti-climatic that I sauntered in.
Sorry if I ruined your plan.

OOC don't worry. my only plan was to have arminius round the corner with his men
why would the tech-priest be in a cave heretics were using as a base?

The Enginseers bionic eye lit up as he ran up quickly.
"Thank the Omnissiah, I thought no-one would show up, I have logged 41 complaints about the squad I was assigned to and I need to submit them to someone!"
"Complaint #000041"

Gaius:....what the hell are you doing here?

"I was following the squad I was assigned too!"
What you can see of the Enginseers face is upturned and obviously angered.
"They said it was some outpost they needed to investigate, the men lacked manners frankly, but I am new to the planet so who was I to argue?"
He crosses his arms in obvious annoyance.
"What they have done to the Machines here is terrible, completely none standard, Spikes!, Spikes for the Omnissiahs sake, they asked, no, Demanded I fixed them, but I am going no where near THOSE machine spirits, they are completely unreasonable."

"...."

"I see you are also stunned by the lack of discipline in these men,"
He dramatically leans on his staff.
"Oh, I feel faint thinking of it, the transports were so ramshackle, It hurts to think of it, such horror."

"I wouldn't know. I'm a sentinel pilot"

He gets up into your face, then tilts his head with scrutiny.
"Do you."
"Take care."
"Of your Sentinel?"

"of course, we all do, they're like squadmates to us"

"You, I like you, I'm sticking with you."

"....alright then"

"So, what is this place then?"

"...a heretic base..."

"...Well that explains, alot."
He looks down, reflectively.
"Well then, I suppose it is time to kill something."

"we just finished killing..."

"Oh, then I'll just follow you."
