They could feel the world around them shake as chaos began to take over everything, living in the Warhammer forty thousand universe wasn't as bad as the books made it look.
Namely, because the two of them had ended up at the very bottom of a hive world with working magic tech.
Not having any sunlight for a couple of years did affect them, considering that they both had lost their dark skin tones and the fact that they now had to rely on the machines to make food for them, other than that life was great.
They both spent their time either digging up old technology and finding the things that still worked and allowed the robots to repair anything that wasn't insane.
The robots repaired the walls and support beams and found a lot of factories, workshops, and luxury rooms that had been abandoned for years.
Hell, there were even giant robots that looked like knights and tanks that looked like they should be in a movie about aliens or killer robots because they started to fly when the robots turned them on.
Between the four of them, they had managed to get clean water running again, granted it had to run through a lot of machines to make it safe to drink, but it was still clean water.
Life was good, it had been a shock when they first ran into the gangs of the hive, but considering we had a bunch of robots on our side and we traded food and a lot of extra space that made life comfortable for them, a lot of the gangs left us alone.
Eventually, people started moving in on their own allowing us to explore and fix the areas that we couldn't get to before.
Then one day all of the regular people and the gangs stood in front of us and said that if we went any further then the higher-ups would find out about us and ruin everything.
I'll be the first to admit that we wanted to keep going but when you have a bunch of people kneeling begging you not to do something, yeah you tend to listen.
So we had no other choice but to go back down and use the giant tunnels to explore the areas of the very bottom of the world again.
Imagine our surprise when we discovered that we had somehow created a bunch of other businesses that followed us around.
For example, you know the people that sell land, well they sold entire floors, thee floors could house millions of people each.
We both knew about the dangers of the universe we were dropped in and so our magic tech robots were never separated from us, so no one could mess with them.
Eventually, we found out that the planet was covered with eight giant Hive Cities and we had explored and repaired the bottom layer of all of them.
No one knows when the nuns with guns showed up, only that one day they were there preaching, healing people, and doing typical nun stuff.
I'm not going to lie the radiation and chemicals that were all around us was a problem but a ton of shields built by our robots made quick work of them.
Then one day a bunch of machine men wearing red robes showed up and started investigating all of the technology, everyone was using, the only things that stopped them from killing everyone were the giant Knight Robots and flying tanks.
I mean they just fired at the things and couldn't make a scratch on them, we later found out that the machine men were the tech-priests but considering that none of the tanks or knights killed anyone, they didn't know how to react.
So yeah eventually the planet was left alone.
eventually, people started being taken off the planet, we don't know what happened to them, the only thing we do know is that they take a bunch of weapons and technology with them and we never see them again.
So life was good for a long time...eventually something or someone important turned in our direction and things started to get from good, to bad and then horrendously bad.
"You ready?" I asked my best friend as our robots killed all of the corrupted people trying to get in.
"Just do it already!" he answers me
"Do it" I ordered my robot s it completed the summoning ritual, we had set up the ritual to absolve as much warp energy to power itself
"Horus!" Sanguineous screamed as he felt his soul manifest itself into the living world, he had been focused on containing his son's red thirst and black rade, and all of a sudden he was here.
He noticed a pair of Human men standing next to some sort of robots when the doors opened by astarts that were corrupted by chaos.
The angel opened his wings and allowed his yellow gold light to spread briefly forcing the invaders to stop in their tracks.
Sanguineous didn't slow down through himself at the enemy as his light touched all of those that weren't infected by the warp, strengthening their resolve and inspiring them to fight harder.
He used a massive hole in the ceiling and flew to the very top of the hive city, just in time to see the various warp gates open as the Imperioums fleet arrive in the system to provide aid.
"You okay!?" I said to my friend as he held his hand as the command seals branded themselves into his left hand
"He's not going to be able to d it alone" he gasped for air as he looked at the summoning circle
"Do it" he ordered his robot and it activated the summoning circle
I watched as a man with long white hair wearing purple armor stepped out of the light, I watched as the man graved his head and said
"I'm free" before drawing his sword and running out of the door.
I could feel the command seals burning themselves into my soul and forcing themselves to burn themselves into my left hand.
There was nowhere to run, we just laid there even as the fighting grew and we tried to breathe even as the two Primarchs walked into the room accompanied by soldiers.
I turned to look at a woman that had a pair of white wings and gold hair who had her sword pointed at me. while another woman that wore red armor had a gun pointed at my friend.
"Well, aren't you going to kill us?" I heard my old friend say to them before a pair of massive hands wrapped themselves around me and everything turned dark
The box networks sprang to life and all over space the news about the return of the brothers began to be heard all over, some were quick to dismiss this news, but videos and images of the two brothers silenced them instantly.
This news was further proven true when the people heard that a saint had been present when sanguineous returned from the dead, and when Fulgrim tore himself free from the corruption of the chaos gods.
All over space, those that could see the paths of fate were driven mad as reality realine itself, as ancient prophecies were discarded and altered, soon the ripples in the warp great that not even the inhabitants of the warp could ignore the news.
And so they prepared themselves to either corrupt the brothers or kill them once again.
Roboute Guilliman listened to the news and despite his excitement over his brother's return, he had no choice but to focus on the two sorcerors that had brought them back.
It had only been after the people begged for the men's survival that he learned that they were responsible for restoring much of the lost technology of the world.
Soon his brothers would arrive at Holy Terra and would meet with their father, and it would be there that Guilliman would meet with them as well.
Warhammer 42k broken Crusades,
Complet thankyou for reading
[][][][][[[][][]
Never going to write it but Fulgrim would end up going on a long and I mean long crusade to redeem himself.
Eventually, he would end up gathering all of the space marines that were at the very edge of space until he hended up with something the size of the legions of the past.
It would be there that he and his corrupted side would fight until he killed his corrupted version.
For some reason, he would end up running into Vulkan who was fighting the Tau empire with nothing but regular humans at his side, needless to say, the Tau gets completely crushed under sheer numbers.
Sanguineous would end up going to the Dark Imperium and help with the massive crusade going on in there and he would end up running into Corvus Corax and the two would end up working together for a long time.
Oddly enough they both would bring a lot of alien races into the Imperium with the excuse that they were servant races for Humans to use.
Guilliman would end up waking up Lionel Johnson and the two would end up fighting over the state of the Imperium but would end up working together because things were too messed up to fight each other.
Thereby launching the biggest crusade ever see since the great crusade as the brothers now had no choice but to deal with everything going on.
Yet underneath all of this, the Craftworld Eldar are contacted by the Emperor who makes a deal with them.
Either stop killing Humans or deal with all three crusades heading your way, they reluctantly agree, just as the Necrons fully wake up and the main Tyranid fleet arrives and man is it massive.
