I do not own Warhammer. I only own my OC
hey guys got this chapter out fast uh. Well let's get going eh.
Guest reviews:
Guest: Thanks man I try. Quick crash course on the Luna Wolves. The Luna Wolves were the XVI (or 16th if you don't do roman numerals) Legion of Space marines during the Great Crusade. They were lead by their Primarch Horus Lupercal who later became a fucking heretic. Anyways The Luna Wolves killed all kinds of ass and conquered many worlds for the Imperium they changed the name changed to Sons of Horus at one point then to the Black legion after the Horus heresy. So yea. Glad you like the lore I made for Reach I hinted at the Tau's view on them but I might just have a segment were someone talks about Reach and how the other factions know about them.
Guest: yea I saw those then I was rereading my story while on the way to school and I will fix them all soon. I did get a few so that's good right.
"The bond between AI and partner cannot be explain, it can only be experienced."- Wolfgang Rose Grade Four Preserver.
Farseer Ardrad walked through his ships hallways. It had been two days since his ship was attacked by that single Human battle barge. In the end he lost all of his escort ships a cruiser and his flagship now has a large hole in the side of it. Now they were in the process of looking for survivors amongst the destroyed ships. AND to top it all off he ran into a few ships from Craftworld Ulthwé, turns out he wasn't the only ones who got the signal.
While the search was going on he dove in the archives to see if he could find anything about them. An encounter, mystery, or even other sighting of Human walkers with similar color scheme. But his search was all for not. These humans from Reach were very good at staying out of sight.
Hell the only reason he knew about the Preserver was because of the telepathic message he received before hand.
Farseer Ardrad entered his office
then took his seat behind his desk then waited for his guest to arrive. Isha he did not feel like talking to her. His door then opened to reveal
"Farseer Idranel." Farseer Ardrad greeted the Craftworld Ulthwé Farseer.
" Farseer Ardrad, I see you let the Mon-keigh get away."
"I see your still flat." Ardrad quipped.
Idranel's face turned from neutral to pissed in an instant. Warp lightning danced on her finger tips.
"what do you want?" Ardrad asked leaning back in his chair grunting from the pain in his chest.
"I want to know about the Mon-keigh you had."
"Not much to know other than he is from a planet called Reach, that somehow got their hands on a Space Marine Chapter."
"They could be a threat to our people-"
"Just like every other race in this galaxy even our own." Ardrad said cutting her off.
It was no secret that Ardrad had no respect for Idranel. She would often lose troops by underestimating her enemy, she had no sense of subtlety, and killed her prisoners when she could not get information out of them. torture only takes one so far.
But the time that really did it for him was when he took a human settlement and she decided to kill all the towns people because they were of no use. After all how different were they from the Imperium if they treated other races the same way.
"I don't not have time for you opinion Ardrad. I want to know about these Mon-keigh, they have been popping up all over the galaxy then disappearing without a trace. We must prepare for the worst."
"How long have they been "popping" up?" Ardrad asked.
"As far as been recorded since M32, in Mon-keigh terms, they started stealing from us in M33." she answered clearly angry that Mon-keigh have been stealing from them for millennia.
"what have they been stealing?"
"Everything. Tools, armor, weapons, vehicles, even Eldar themselves."
"Why am I now finding this out?"
"Because that knowledge is secret because of the panic it might create. Think about it a faction of Mon-keigh that has been able to out maneuver, escape us when outnumbered, beat us when out gunned, and all the while they have kept their Homeworld hidden. A faction like this must be contained."
"I will speak with Farseer Macha."
"Mmm. His vitals look good even the scarring tissue has healed as well. Guess this new Bacta stuff works better than the old stuff." Erick said as he reviewed Wolfgang's vitals. "Well let's get you out of there."
The Apothecary moved to the side of the tub, that held Wolfgang, and hit a few buttons on a computer terminal next to it.
Mechanic arms came out of the wall and attached to the tube. The arms then moved the tube to its side then plugged it into the wall. Moments later the Bacta started to drain from the tube until it was empty. The front of the tube opened allowing another metal arm to pick Wolfgang up from the tube and place him on a metal table.
Erick then removed the equipment that he was hooked up to. Erick paused then he felt eyes baring down on him. He turned his head to see the female portion of his staff was looking at Wolfgang, some using their tablets to hide their blushes.
Erick turned to them. "Do I have to kick you school girls out while I do this?"
They slow started to get back to work, allowing Erick get back to his patient. Once he was done removing all of the monitoring equipment he began to dry the remaining Bacta that was left on Wolfgang's body.
"Now we wait." Erick said to himself waiting for Wolfgang to wake up. "Hmm. Might want to get his clothes up here so he can move around in something other than underwear."
Erick walked over to the same computer consol that he used to call Nick and tapped the projector again. Nick appeared like before and looked up at the Apothecary.
"What can I help you with?" Nick asked happily.
"Could you send up the Preservers cloths to the medical bay."
"Sure thing." Nick said disappearing.
Erick turned to see Wolfgang sitting on the table with his legs over the side. Erick went back over to him to see how he was. Wolfgang only nodded to his questions or gave a weak yes or sure. By the time he was done asking his question Wolfgang's clothes arrived, which turned out to be pants, a black shirt and boots.
Wolfgang nodded his thanks to the person that brought his clothes and went into one of the empty beds and closed the curtains to change. A few minutes later Wolfgang opened the curtains and stepped out.
"I am allowed to leave?" Wolfgang asked the Apothecary. Who nodded his answer.
Wolfgang walk out of the medical bay and made his way to the elevator. Along the way he noticed that a lot of the crew were taking long looks at him as he walked by. It wasn't a hate look more along the line of "That's the guy in the news" look.
Wolfgang made a metal note to take a look at the news when he got the chance.
Wolfgang came to the Elevator moments later and hit the call button. After a few minutes the door opened allowing Wolfgang to step in. No one else was in the elevator so Wolfgang could get to wherever he need to go without stops. Hopefully.
Wolfgang moved his finger to hit the lower floor button but his finger stopped a few inches away from it. Wolfgang tried to move forward but he could not get himself to push the button. His hand started to shake as he continued to force his hand forward.
Wolfgang started to feel a sense of distress. But it was not coming from him.
Wolfgang's finger slowly went up and hit the button to take him to the interrogation/prison cell level. He stepped back and growled as he waited to for the elevator to take him to the upper level.
Wolfgang knew full well he was not a psyker nor did he have any connection to the Warp. So why was he getting this sense of distress.
A few minutes later the doors to the elevator opened and Wolfgang stepped out. As he walked he could feel the sense getting stronger until he came to a door that lead to the prisoner cells. There was a window next to the door that showed a security room with a signal guard in it. Just below the window was a panel that outlined a fingerprint.
The guard noticed Wolfgang standing in front of the door. The guard was not a marine just a normal human with a plasma pistol on his hip. The guard stood up and walked over to the window and pressed a button on his side allowing him to talk through the reinforced class.
"Sir this area is off limits to civilians." The guard said with a tone of authority.
Wolfgang looked at him with his cold hazel eyes.
Wolfgang then walked up to the panel and pressed his finger against the panel. The panel scanned his finger then started to match the fingerprint he gave to the one in the system. Moments later a window appeared on the guards computer showing Wolfgang's identification.
The guards eyes widened. "My apologies Preserver I did not know you were coming. Let me get the door for you."
A buzzing sound came out of one of the speakers as the door to the detention block opened. Wolfgang walked through and into the detention block.
The Detention block had four levels of cells, each level had thirty cells on each side making a total of sixty cells on each level. Add all the levels and that gave you two hundred and forty cells total, with each cell capable of holding around ten people but they were built to house two. So on paper this one detention block could hold four hundred and eighty people quantifiable, and two thousand four hundred people if you did not mind sharing.
Wolfgang made his way down the hallway, looking left and right to see if he could spot a familiar someone. Some of the cells had Tau fire caste warriors in it while others had earth caste engineers and workers. He was able to spot a dozen female Tau but they were trying their best not be seen, most likely because of the propaganda they were fed they were probably expecting to get raped any time soon.
Other cells had some Imperial Guard soldiers in them. Some of them were praying while others were staring hard back at Wolfgang with hate filled eyes. They were about twenty female Guardsman in their own cells to avoid cell mates having sex with each other. They were looking at Wolfgang with a sense of fear as they probably thought that they were being held by pirates.
Wolfgang felt a tug on his mind.
He looked to the back right of the detention block and proceeded over to the cell to see who was inside. Their sat in her own cell was the Eldar he saved, in the corner moping.
"What do you want?" The Eldar asked angrily.
Wolfgang did not say a thing and just stood there.
"If you are trying to do the same thing you did last time then you are missing something." She hissed at him.
"…"
"…"
"Why are you here?" Wolfgang asked plainly.
The Eldar Shot up and then came up to the cell bars. "Because you're stupid Mon-keigh marines knocked me out and decided that I needed to come too." She spat, spit included, at him.
Her spit hit Wolfgang gangs cheek, he raised his hand to remove it then let them go back to his side.
"If I know my Eldar Vanators they would not have brought you if you were not a mission objective. So that begs the question why are you here?" Wolfgang asked weakly.
The Eldar was silent for a while. "We have a bond."
"A what?"
"Don't make me repeat myself Mon-keigh I know you heard me."
"For how long?"
"Since you killed that demon."
Next to every cell there was a panel that sent a request to the guard in the checkpoint to open a certain door or, if one had the clearance, open it out right.
Wolfgang walked up to the panel and requested the door to the Eldar's cell be opened.
On the other side of the detention block the guard was looking at Wolfgang like he was crazy. Normally when removing any prisoner from a cell, epically an Eldar, they would at least have some kind of weapon on them. Wolfgang did not have so much as a stun stick on him.
Reluctantly the guard hit the approve button on his computer.
The door to the Eldar's cell hissed then opened.
The Eldar look at Wolfgang with wide eyes. What was his game? What was he trying to do?
"Come on." Wolfgang said stepping away from the door.
"Wait? Are just letting me out? Do you think me not a threat?" She said insulted.
"No but if what you say is true then keeping you as an enemy will only create uneasy complications."
"What makes you think I will betray my people!"
"Who said anything about betrayal. You can stay on Reach for all I care but I can't have you compromising me because of this bond. Now let's go." Wolfgang said as he started to walk away.
Reluctantly the Eldar started to move to her cell door. After all anything was better than a cell right. The Eldar started to follow Wolfgang out of the detention block. The guard was hesitant to let them out but a cold stare from Wolfgang got him moving again.
Once they were out they proceeded back to the elevator. The two stood in silence as they waited for the elevator to arrive. A few minutes later the elevator door opened allowing the two to walk in. The only noise that could be heard was the movement of the elevator as it descended deeper into the Battle Barge.
"Where are we going?" The Eldar asked neutrally.
"You are going back to the drop ship, I am going to see how badly Rosa was damaged." Wolfgang responded somewhat angry.
The Elevator door opened allowing the two to make their way to the tram that would take them to the large hanger in the front of the ship. As people walked by they made quick glances at Wolfgang and the Eldar as they walked by. None of them dare ask why Wolfgang looked so displeased or why a foreign Eldar was walking around with him.
Ten minutes later they came to a large opening in the ship. There were over a dozen trams running either hauling people or equipment to their destinations. Wolfgang stopped at a terminal and hit a few buttons. Soon one of the trams switched lanes and came to a stop in front of the two.
It took a good twenty minutes for the tram to get the hanger. Once it arrived the two got off and made their way to the hanger. Once they arrived Wolfgang went over to another terminal and searched for his ship.
"The drop ship is in the back of the hanger." Wolfgang said walked deeper into the hanger.
The hanger itself had all kinds of ships. Thunderhawks, Assault Rams, fighter, and bombers were all being worked on or being switched out with other vehicles for maintenance. Techmarines were overseeing the repairs of the many vehicles while engineers worked on them.
There were also some small transports that moved heavy components from the fabricators to their respective vehicle repair bay. There were also large walk ways allowing Freedom Knights to move to their respective transports.
The Freedom Knight emerging bays were on the far side of the hanger given the ignorance of the walkers they had their own mechbay, or Knightbay if you want, to run repairs and or maintenance. The Knight pilots rooms were build nearby allowing them to get to their walkers fasters.
When the two made it to the back of the hanger. Wolfgang instantly spotted his dropship, it still had a good two dozen engineers working on it. Mainly replacing the bay doors and fitting a new engine.
Normally a Warp-drive is a very big piece of equipment only being found on large void craft but thanks to the technological advancements of Reach, Warp-drives could be fitted on ships like Wolfgang's dropship.
Wolfgang walked up to the Techmarine overseeing the repairs.
The Techmarines of the Sons of Liberty wore red power armor, their left shoulder being blue with white outlines as well as bearing the Chapter crest. Their other shoulder was black with a gear in the center. The gear itself had a wrench and chainsaw sword crossing each other in the center of the gear. Their knee guards were black one held his rank while the other held his company number.
The Techmarine noticed Wolfgang approaching him and turned to greet him.
"Ah. You must be the Preserver who owns this ships." The Techmarine said his voice coming out muffled because of the mask that covered his mouth and a part of his face.
"Yup this is my boat." Wolfgang said trying to put a bit of humor into his voice but failed in the end.
"Indeed. Well repairs are coming along, we got two of the four bay doors fixed. Still waiting on some other parts for the engine." He said looking back at his computer terminal in front of him. "I must say those Eldar did a number on your ship, still trying to figure out how they managed to cut the power from the reactor to the rest of the ship."
"Wait about the Knights that were on board?" Wolfgang asked a little hesitantly.
The Techmarine stopped. "Right… The Steiner knight had the most damage and is damn near unsalvageable and the knights AI core took a direct hit. Unfortunately we were unable to recover the AI at all."
"And the other?" Wolfgang asked like his heart was about to be crushed.
"The Rose Knight took a lot of damage too, hell I'm surprised that you still use a gen 3 and how it's still in one piece, but the core did take a hit albeit be it a graze."
"Did Rosa make it?"
"It's a little hard to say. When the techs over at the Mechbay got the AI core out they started to see if they could recover any of her. Sorry but that's all I know you will have to go over to the Mechbay if you want to see if she made it or not." The Techmarine said sympathetically.
After all Techmarines were partners with a AI as well. They knew full well what a AI bond felt like.
"Thank you I will head over their immediately." Wolfgang said nodding this thanks.
The Techmarine returned the nod and went back to work.
Wolfgang turned and started his way toward the Mechbay the Eldar following behind him. Wolfgang's pace was faster than normal, it was very obvious that he was worried about his AI partner. He had suffered through the loss of a loved one, that only changed him, if it happened again who knows what her death would do to him.
The duo made it to the Mechbay in a few minutes. The Mechbay had five rows of eight Freedom Knights, four on each side of each row. In total there were forty Knight walkers, or ten lances. Two of the walkers where standing outside the Mechbay most likely to make room for the two knights that were found on Wolfgang's drop ship.
Wolfgang walked into the Mechbay and looked for the Techmarine that oversaw the servicing of all the Knights. Most likely he was with the two Knights that were being repaired, so Wolfgang started to look for his Knight.
It was easy to spot his knight because un-Housed Knights were painted black with their shoulders being red. Unlike a House Knight Corps Knight's shields and under banner were left blank until said Knight plot was assigned to a lance. Then they would paint the lance crest on their Knight's shield and under banner.
Wolfgang's Knight was docked in the last row of Knight bays near the back, and the Steiner Knight docked opposite of her. Wolfgang jogged over to her and looked her over, Wolfgang's Knight was still missing it's heavy weapon and there was still a large cut mark it's faceplate.
Wolfgang sighed sadly as he looked upon the damage, thinking about the bill he was going to receive after all the repairs were made. Most likely it would be taken out of the money he would get when he sold all the supplies he stole while on his run.
"You must be the plot of the Gen 4 do come up here and join me." A female voice called.
Wolfgang looked up to see a female Eldar in a black mechanic's overall. The Eldar had bright blue eyes and black hair. She had her hair in a ponytail so she could work without her hair getting in her way.
The Eldar that was already with Wolfgang was surprised to see another Eldar onboard the Battle Barge. Sure she was told that there were others but she did not believe it.
Wolfgang walked up to the ladder, that went up to the catwalks, and climbed up.
"Wow. You are a lot hotter than I thought." The Eldar said drinking in Wolfgang's appearance.
Her eyes drifted downward as she examined the Preserver in front of her.
"Hey. Hey eyes up here." Wolfgang said snapping his fingers in front of his face.
"Sssssssssssssssh. Just let it happen." She said seductively putting her finger to Wolfgang's lips.
For some reason the Eldar, who had just finished climbing up the ladder, looked pissed off by what she was seeing.
"Look." Wolfgang said grabbing the Eldar's hand. "I am here to see if my AI partner is alive so I would appreciate it you would stop imagining me naked and show me to Rosa."
"Hard to get I see well I like it when- GA!" She was cut off when someone else walked up behind his hand hit her over the head with a wrench.
"That's enough." A human male said looking down at the Eldar who was now clutching her head. He looked up at Wolfgang nodded apologetically. "I am sorry for our lead engineer's behavior. She has a problem controlling her sexual urges. Please follow me I will take you to your AI."
Wolfgang nodded and followed after him leaving the Eldar engineer behind who was still clutching her head.
The engineer lead Wolfgang down the catwalk that led into a hallway with many doors lining the walls. These were the quarters for the Knight pilots. The engineer lead him to the end of the hallway and into a door that opened up to a large lounge with anything one would need to be lazy and or relax.
Along one of the walls were many trophies from the many battles that the lances fought in. Space Marine Helmets, pieces of armor from destroyed tanks, and the like decorated the wall.
The engineer lead them to a back room with a single holo-projector in the middle of the room surrounded by a round couch. The Holo-projector was projecting a small red dot and data was flowing into and out of.
Wolfgang walked up to it.
"Rosa?" he asked worried
"Yes that is me." The red dot brightening and dimming as it spoke. "Do I know you?"
Wolfgang's heart sank.
"We were able to realine her neural net but she was having problems remembering who she is. We thought you should be the one to remind her of her past." The engineer whispered into Wolfgang's ear.
Wolfgang nodded his thanks and took a seat down on the couch.
The engineer took this as his cue to leave. He stopped in front of the Eldar and asked her to wait outside while the Wolfgang tried to help his AI partner. Reluctantly the Eldar left the room leaving the two alone with one another.
Once He was alone with Rosa, Wolfgang started to speak again.
"Yes you do I am your partner. Wolfgang Rosa." Wolfgang said trying to jog Rosa's memory.
"I'm sorry but I don't remember you. The only thing I remember was fighting off demons of Slaanesh on Reach, everything after that is a blank. Sorry." Rosa said obviously sensing Wolfgang's sadness.
"Well I guess I should start with how we met."
