Last days of an empire:
And so it begins
Unknown location
"Hold up here; do not let the shipment get damaged" yelled the squad sergeant
"Sir, Reports say that there's chaos forces approaching from the south, we need…." He never got to finish his sentence as his head was ripped off by the demon that had come up from behind him. The rest of the squad just looked on in horror as the man's body was ripped apart limb from limb by the demonic creature.
"Damn it, fight back you cowards" yelled the commissar as the supply carts moved along at a deathly slow pace. "You will not let the emperor down this day" he screamed as he dug his power sword out of a chaos marine's armored skull. "You will fight, or you will die, there is no surrender!"
The Landers had just touched down as the imperial forces were coming into view. As the men were trying to get aboard, the pilots saw a sight that chilled there bones, right behind the retreating imperial forces, rising out of the middle of the city was a giant creature that look exactly like the grim reaper. As its gaze turned towards the fleeing forces, one thought was in all of the men's minds, that they would not leave this planet alive.
Earth: year 41,678
"Commander Khrone, I do not appreciate the fact that your 'recovery' team has not returned for some time now with the artifact that we had located on the necrons home world, so commander explain why I should let you live"
"My lord, you shall have the sacred artifact of the necrons, I swear it but…"
"But nothing commander, you promised me your men would return with the item within a weeks time, but now it has been over 3 weeks since they left, I want that artifact and I want it now commander"
"Yes my lord, you shall have it"
Commander Khrone of the 84th Martian armored division was not having a good day. If what the emperor had just told him was anything to go on, he would not live very long if his men did not return with the 'artifact' soon.
The great emperor of earth was getting impatient. Yes he was old, and yes he was used to waiting for the tides to turn in his favor, but this was getting ridicules. It had been 3 weeks now and he still did no have the one item that might help him win this loosing war. Now he was actually starting to think he might have no chance at all in winning this 'conflict'. His thoughts and worries would have to wait for another time, for he was about to receive some news that would spell the end for his beloved empire.
The transition he had just received was the video of what had become of the men on the necrons home planet. It started playing from the time when they had received the artifact to when they were retreating to the Landers to leave the cursed planet. The emperor looked on in shock as what he could only recognize as one of the necrons most powerful gods, C'Tan Nightbringer. As the video finished, the emperor thought but one think, if necrons found earth, then that shall be the beginning of the fall of the empire.
