Chapter 2: Magnus the Red

Magnus was confused, that alone was unsettling but considering he was emperor knows where and being attacked by three of his brothers, there were more pressing matters to deal with.

"Vulkan, you must listen!" He shouted, knowing that Vulkan was the most likely to listen to reason. "Horus will betray father I must warn him!"

"We know, Magnus the Traitor!" replied Rogal Dorn, his voice was filled with contempt. "Thanks to your foul sorcery the Imperial Palace was invaded by a horde of Daemons!". Magnus was shocked, Rogal had called him a traitor. Magnus was just on Prospero when he attempted to contact father, now he and three of his brothers were in a forest on an unknown world. Vulkan and Rogal had attacked him immediately, but Sanguinius had not moved yet, he was pale and there was genuine fear in his eyes.

Suddenly Vulkan yelled "CEASE FIRE!" and pointed towards a small clearing. Standing there in shock was a young child wearing an orange shirt. Magnus reached into his mind and found no knowledge of High or Low Gothic. He did find two languages he had never heard before.

Magnus walked toward the child who raised a sword and shield in response. They seemed to be made of bronze, "Perhaps we've been stranded on a feudal world" Magus thought. "Lower your weapons, I mean you no harm." The boy was undeterred, and kept the sword pointed at him.

"Not one more step traitor." Rogal Dorn had raised his bolter

Magnus sighed, "Rogal, I honestly have no knowledge of my 'betrayal'. Now if you would let me converse with the locals we can talk about this so called 'heresy' I committed later." Rogal lowered his bolter, "At least he sees the value of my powers in this situation." Magnus thought as he began to converse with the boy, "I am Magnus the Red of Prospero, what planet is this child?" The child stood in stunned silence until another group of children entered the clearing.

"THERE YOU ARE PUNK!" the leader shouted, she was strong and had the eyes of a warrior, but her voice had an edge that reminded Magnus of his brother Angron. "GET HI…" she stopped dead in her tracks. "How in Olympus did a Cyclops get into camp! You let him in didn't you!" She pointed her spear at the boy.

This boy shifted his attention from Magnus to the girl, "No Clarisse, you really think I could summon a cyclops into camp only a few days after I found out they were real?!"

"IN THE NAME OF THE EMPEROR, SILENCE!" Magnus shouted at the two, "My brothers and I are stranded here, if you could tell us what planet this is we may be able to return home."

The girl, evidently named Clarisse looked at Magnus like he was an idiot, "WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, HOW DARE YOU GIVE ORDERS TO A DAUGHTER OF ARES!" She continued yelling at Magnus until the boy got her attention.

"Uhhh Clarisse, what the hell is that?!" off in the distance, what appeared to be a wolf was charging at the group. Fur as black as a Salamander with eyes that glowed like red stars. Vulkan had his hammer ready, Rogal activated his chainsword, Sanguinius had finally snapped out of whatever trance he was in and readied his sword. All four primarchs were prepared to face the greatest enemy of the Imperium of Man.

A/N: Alright 2 chapters down. Thanks to my one reviewer so far, yes I know my chapters are short that's a problem I've been trying to work on. (But seriously though thanks for reviewing). By the way, if you're unfamiliar with Warhammer 40k check out the one of the many Wikis or Bruva Alfabusa's "If the Emperor had a Text to Speech Device" it's funny as hell and I highly recommend it. On the other hand if you're unfamiliar with Percy Jackson, read the books they are amazing reads.
