Well, here's another story I plan to make, don't expect it to get updates fast, I'm taking my time now, trying to spot out every mistake, and if I miss a few, blame elmo for holding a gun up to me :-)

Fortune's soldier

Prologue

They touched down with a concussive thump, as the drop pod hit pay dirt. The space marine's chapter, dark watch, stepped out, firing on the orks, who were now turning towards the approaching drop ships. Out of the third drop pod came Drago "Venom" Venorn. His brother-sergeant was first out of the drop pod, taking a few hits on his armor, but not penetrating. The landscape was filled with fire from orks and marines, Venom could see the sun setting in the crimson light of the field. There were potholes from grenade blasts, and tons of bodies lying on the ground, mainly orks. He then saw the dark armor of his brothers, along with the green patch on their shoulders, which snapped him back to reality.

Venom's squad mate, and best friend, Lupos "Grinder" Jerte bolted out of the drop pod with flamer in hand, and roasted one of the orks hands, before taking his knife and stabbing him in the gut. Together, venom and grinder both moved towards the "White Scars" line of defense. On the way there, they lost two brothers, and one brother was hit in the arm, but other than that, no one else was hurt.

"Looks just like the other battle we just fought an hour ago!" yelled Grinder to Venom.

"Yea, except that was against chaos, and not orks!" Venom replied back, taking a position on the wall.

White scar's chaplain was at the front, firing his plasma pistol at the oncoming ork army. The sergeant of first squad from dark watch went to the front too, firing his plasma pistol too. He was yelling a very colorful amount of curses, before taking a hit to the chest, which forced him to get down. He then went to where Venom's squad was stationed.

"Alright marines!" he started, "Were here to make sure that those orks don't get this ship making depot, they get this ship, and all hell breaks loose!"

"Too late!" yelled another marine who was two men down from Venom.

The sergeant just looked on before continuing, "Were also here to teach the white scars how to shoot their god damn weapons. So keep up the fire until we can get the dreadnoughts down here!"

With that the sergeant went to the front of the line again, and started firing.

"I hope they get here soon!" Venom yelled to Grinder.

"Yeah, or they'll have to scrape our boots off the friggin wall!" Grinder replied.

The fighting went on for five minutes, the orks getting so close they could smell what they had for lunch yesterday. Soon, the dreadnoughts started falling from the sky, forcing a morale boost on the dark watch space marines. The dreadnoughts fought forward, pushing back the oncoming orks. The sergeant for some reason didn't want them to go up.

"What's with the sarge?!" Grinder yelled, while trying to reload his flamer.

"No clue, but you know the sarge and his bad feelings, he's usually right!" Venom replied.

"Yeah, I know what you mean, take last time for instance…"

All the sudden, the wreckage of a fallen dreadnought landed right next to Grinder, throwing him on top of venom, but quickly recovering.

"What the hell!" Grinder said.

Then Venom and Grinder both looked over the wall, and saw another dreadnought fly past their heads. They looked forward to see a fully armed squiggoth eating the last of the dreadnoughts. It charged forward, it's zzap gun chewing up anything in it's path. They both looked over to see the sergeant and the chaplain frozen in their places. They quickly recovered, but they knew what this meant, they weren't armed to take it on.

"Keep firing, in the name of the emperor!" The chaplain yelled.

Venom and Grinder both looked at each other, knowing what was going to happen, and knowing what they had to do.

As the rest of the squad kept fighting behind the walls, Venom and Grinder both hopped the wall, running towards the squiggoth. Their sergeant yelling something, but they were now out of earshot.

Venom and Grinder forced their way out, taking a good ten orks on the way. They finally had the last stretch of land before the squiggoth. They were both sprinting as hard as they could, avoiding the machine guns on the side.

"Grenade!" yelled Venom.

Grinder tossed him a grenade, and Venom caught it with one hand. He then shouldered his bolter, primed the grenade, and threw it at the feet of the squiggoth. It detonated, making the squiggoth wobbly, and then Grinder yelled, "Grenade!"

Venom tossed Grinder a grenade. Grinder jumped in the air, caught it with one hand, shouldered his flamer, primed it, and threw it at the other leg. The squiggoth bent down on it's knees, catching it's breath. Both Venom and Grinder pulled out their knives, and used them as climbing tools to get to the top. They got to the turrets on each side of the camp like gun emplacement, and stabbed the orks manning the MG's. Venom was first on top, and ran towards the head, almost losing his balance three times. He got to the zzap gun, and shoved a grenade in it, blowing the gun wide open and rendering it useless. He then ran to the head, took out his bolter, and fired what was left of his clip into the back of its head. The stubborn thing refused to fall though, that's when grinder came by with his flamer, jammed it into the hole created by the bolter, and poured it on.

After about thirty seconds, the squiggoth began to fall to the ground, throwing Venom and Grinder to the ground.

Venom's vision was blurry, but he then realized he was getting dragged by and apothecary. He looked forward, and saw a couple of brothers heading towards grinder. They were shot dead by some shoota boys. Then one of the orks walked forward, and put a cap into grinder's head.

"NO!" Venom yelled, pulling free of the apothecary's grip. He ran past the dead squiggoth, and reloaded his bolter. He then filled the ork that had shot grinder, in the chest with half a clip. He then ran over to grinder, and knelt by his body.

"Come on buddy!" Venom yelled, shaking his friend's corpse, "We need to go!"

Venom then picked up grinder's corpse, and flipped him over his shoulder. He tried making his way to the wall, but was being constantly hit in the back by the ork's guns.

Soon, Venom was with his friend.
