K-9878 walked into the doors of Warhammer High on that very special night. However, unlike many others, he came there to join his comrades since they were not social as people thought. If they took a closer look, they were social only to each other due to the fact that they knew the small gestures that they considered a privilege for an outsider.

When the trooper reached the other side of the doors, he wore the standard grenadier outfit and joined seven other young men as they continued down the white hallway. Along the way, K-9878 took notice of the Eldar, other Guardsmen and women, Chaos, and the Tau wearing their own dresses. The only ones that stood out, other than the Kriegers, were the Space Marines, Sisters of Battle, and the Tyranids. Though, he was curious if the Tyranids knew the meaning of dressing up. It didn't matter. He would just have to go in like a Krieger.

The group turned to their left to enter a gym with an open area with everyone dancing around with one-another or talking with their friends. It was foreign to K-9878 why they enjoyed such social life. He didn't care, but he was watchful. He and his other Kriegers, were giving each other gestures while the loud music was roaming around them.

K-9878 looked over the shoulders of the Kriegers to see an Eldar wearing her red and pink dress as she shyly entered the gym. A Chaos cultist was around to see the Eldar as he grabbed the attention of another cultist as they began to grab a bowl of punch from two Sisters of Battle that had their attention elsewhere. They brought the bowl of punch and dumped the drink over her head as the Eldar closed her eyes when it splashed on her.

The two cultists pointed at her as they laughed at their prank. To them, they considered it funny as those around stopped and were shocked that they would do such a prank on a night like this. All eyes were aimed at the two cultists before K-9878 took the initiative to stomp his way over towards the cultists as the trooper realized that there were eyes aimed at him.

He passed the Eldar in her wet dress as she was distressed that her moment was spoiled for her. The two cultists saw the Krieger before K-9878 grabbed both of the young men by the throat before smashing their heads into one-another, causing a loud smack. With the shocking action K-9878 did to those two cultists, he then turned his attention to the Eldar as she began to take notice of the man.

It was strange to the Krieger, he had never done something that wasn't an order. However, he felt the sense of him doing a good deed in the Emperor's name. Then he looked at the Eldar to see that she smiled a bit from his actions.

"Are you alright?" He asked. It had been a long time since he spoke to someone through his voice. Although his face mask was in the way, it was loud enough for the Eldar girl to hear.

"I'm fine." She said as she looked down at the dress to see the damage down. "I just don't think I can be here like this."

"You will be fine." He replied. "…Do you want to go home?"

"Yes, I have to get out of this dress."

"Follow me." Then the Krieger walked out of the gym with the Eldar girl following her. The two received some looks from people who took notice of the mess that was on the Eldar's dress. When they exited the doors of Warhammer High, the cold air had managed to make the Eldar shiver due to how wet she was.

Taking notice of her shivering body out in the cold, he saw the need to prevent her from getting sick. He unbutton his trench coat before giving it out to her. Surprised by his kind gesture, the Krieger placed it around her shoulders before they began to walk out into the parking lot of armored assault vehicles that were there.

"Where is your vehicle?" She asked. The Kriegsman pulled out his keys to click his keys, only to see the lights of a Baneblade flicker for a moment before she stopped to see the huge assault tank. Then she saw the man open the back door of the tank as he stopped and looked at her. The Eldar then walked up into the doorway. "Thank you-um."

"Call me 78."

"Thank you 78." Then she entered the tank before K-9878 followed and locked the back door before leading the Eldar girl to the front of the tank's driver station as she noticed the two seats that were at the front of the tank. "Where do I sit?" She asked.

"Sit in the gunner seat." Answered K-9878 as he started up the engines of the machine-spirit. The Super Heavy Assault Tank moved its treads before it began to gain acceleration as the Krieger began to crush two Chaos chimeras as the Eldar heard a chuckle from underneath the man's mask.

"What's so funny?" She asked.

"Those two vehicles were owned by the same Chaos cultists that had pranked you." He answered.

"Thanks for doing that to them."

"You are welcome."

"My name is Irlilith, if you wish to know."

"Ok Irlilith, where is your house."

"Let me take the directions."

"Understood."

. . .

When they arrived at Eldar's house, the Baneblade was parked in the middle of the street due to its massive size. Not only that, but it managed to put some tracks in somebody's yard. The two stepped out of the Super Heavy Assault Tank as the Kriegsman followed the Eldar all the way to the door of her home as the Krieger waited for her to unlock the door with her keys. Once done, she began to take off his trench coat and watch the Kriegsman button the coat back on.

"That was a nice ride home." Said Irlilith. "Thank you."

"You are welcome Irlilith." Replied K-9878.

"78, can I get a look of your face?" The Kriegsman was hesitant, but he began to detach the gas mask with a hiss coming out. Then the woman saw his blue eyes and his blonde hair of his youth. It was strange for the Kriegsman to simply allow a stranger to take a look at his face. "You look nice."

"Thank you." He replied with an attempted smile. Then she laughed. "There is no need to work yourself over like that."

"Are you going to get back into your house?"

"I will, I just want to give you my thanks." The Eldar girl walked closer to the Krieger and tipped herself forward to give K-9878 a small touch on his lips as he was shocked at the surprise she had given him. She chuckled before she trotted towards her home. "I hope you can take me out on a date soon?" She asked.

"Let me think about it." Answered K-9878.

"Don't take too long." The Kriegsman began to return back to the Baneblade as he had to take note that it had just became a special night to him.
