Disclaimer: I don't own Kuroinu or Warhammer 40k and this is my first time writing a fanfic so it will be a little rough at the beginning
So, without further ado let's begin
Prologue
Tragedy after tragedy has befallen our chapter ever since we had spoken against the injustices committed by the Inquisition starting with the needless destruction of a repentant shrine world. We had sent our most senior War leaders and Death Speakers to Holy Terra to bring the Inquisition to justice before the High Lords of Terra themselves… They never made it. Then came the Third war for Armageddon one our most devastating losses, the entire chapter had been deployed to stem the Ork hordes, our fist mission was to destroy inactive Gargants what awaited us was instead several ork warbands that had us outnumbered one thousand to one. From overwhelming odds and surprisingly accurate "ork snipers" only a scant few of our members were left standing, we had hoped that we could rebuild but alas none of the apothecaries had survived and the gene-seed of our fallen brothers had been stolen.
We had been disgraced, reduced to such measly numbers with no way to rebuild, but the worst of it was our chapter had been marked for death. We contacted Chaplain Grimaldus of the Black Templars and hero of Helsreach to administer our last rites so we can find a noble end in battle. Instead he gave a chance at regaining our lost honor, with the support of the black templars and the Imperial guardsmen we were to kill the Ork warlord in the area, even though we had suffered more losses at the hands of the orks we had regained our honor through the valor and martial skill shown by the last living Pride Leader Ekene Dubaku fighting along side Chaplain Grimaldus had slain the Orkish warlord and with Ekene's victory he was named our Chapter master and he was gifted with great relics such as Imperial Fist Power armor dating back from the Great Crusade and a Relic Blade sharper than any other as well as a Grand Strike Cruiser that befitted his new found status named Blade of the Seventh Son. With aid from our brothers in both the Black templars and the Emperor's Spears we began to rebuild, and we had thought that all the hardships we had faced were finally over… and we were wrong.
A chaos warband threatened to destroy the last of us and our home world and we had no numbers that could stand up the coming invaders, so we ran. Chapter master Dubaku had ordered us to evacuate as many of the planets residents as we could but we could not save them all and for while the only home we ever knew was burning we had taken refuge with our brothers the Emperor's Spears. Then came the last tragedy to befall our chapter, the assassination of Ekene Dubaku at the hands of the Inquisition, as if the near destruction of our Chapter wasn't enough they kill our Hero and greatest warrior he who at our darkest moments stayed strong and led us though so much and he who has fought in Thousands of battles where hundreds of his brothers had died wondering if he was next, if he was going to end his duty to the almighty Emperor on the battlefield fighting against the worst the galaxy sent to him… only to fall at the hands of a cowardly assassin while in his very chamber betrayed by those he thought could be trusted.
With the loss of our home world and our beloved Chapter Master we had set out to find a new planet to call our own so we can rebuild and settle the displaced residents of our previous home world, Our situation is bleak and our short history filled with tragedy and loss, but all we can do now is have faith that the Emperor will guide us in our time of need, for the greatest weapon isn't a bolter or a las cannon, it is faith, faith in your brothers, in your family, and above all faith in the GOD-EMPEROR!
Celestine had many dreams that would give hints as to what could happen in the future, but it was never clear just vague flashes of something that only she could understand, but tonight had been the clearest it had ever been.
She was standing on a hill facing a forest and it was night no it was pitch black besides the hill and forest she could hardly see anything and a feeling of dread hung around Celestine that she just couldn't shake off, She stood there for what felt like hours staring at the forest, the oppressive darkness making it hard to see past the tree line. She blinked for just a second and when she opened her eyes she saw it, what looked like a deamonized version of a hound with jet black fur the she could barely see the outline of, but the hateful red eyes that peered into her very soul and when she saw the first one she saw the rest of them. Celestine ran as fast as she could and she heard the hounds running after her, she kept running despite not being able to see where she's going, despite it sounding like the hounds were right next to her, despite the burning in her chest she kept running. But it was all for naught for she found herself surrounded by these Black Dogs all of them snarling at her and slowly closing in so as to mock her.
As the dogs closed in to kill her a blinding light appeared in the sky shining directly upon her, and when she looked up, she saw a Golden lion that bore many a scar from numerous battles. The lion had descended down from the sky in front of the hounds sneering at them, and the hounds forgot about her as they charged the Lion. As the hounds charged so did the lion slaughtering the dogs almost effortlessly killing them with razor sharp claws that were shrouded in an ethereal energy or crushing them with a single bite.
Just as the lions was finishing off the last of the dogs far more had come, so many were the hounds that Celestine was afraid she would get trampled under foot by the hoard but the all ignored her and charged the lion with abandon, the lion cared not for the amount it faced it just kept killing, by ripping and tearing and shredding them all, the lions resolve and strength was far greater the numbers the dogs possessed and soon the dogs were no more, leaving only her and the lion. The lion walked up the Celestine and she realized just how massive the creature truly was, before she could do anything the lion spoke to her "Who art thou but a false idol." She couldn't even get a word out before the lion bite down on her.
Celestine woke with a scream
Man that took a lot longer than I thought it would, and because of that I have a new-found respect for writers
Anyway I hope you enjoyed and if you have any critiques on how to improve my writing please share them
