Void Keeper Wars - Warhammer 40K

This is a crossover between Warhammer 40K and StarGate, StarWars, StarCraft. I always wanted a new race for Warhammer 40K. The new race is an amalgamation of the Galactic Empire of StarWars, Goa'uld Empire of StarGate, and the Terran and Protoss from StarCraft. I will be using the Clone Wars era for the StarWars, and post Ori-invasion for the Goa'uld, and units from both StarCraft and StarCraft 2. I don't own anything from Warhammer 40K, StarGate, StarWars, StarCraft. I am just writing it for fun.

This chapter will feature the ships of the new race. Battlecruisers of StarCraft, two StarDestroyers of StarWars and Ha'tak Goa'uld Motherships of StarGate. Also, the name of the new race.

Chapter 3: Face of the Enemy

Jonas returned to his completed HQ in Sanctus Domus, injured but his pride was not broken. He will return in force and destroy his enemies in the name of the Emperor. Next ten days, the Space Marine scouts across Telerix II reported continuous landing of the new enemy and their battles against the aliens. The Eldar were being pushed back as they met the brunt of the assault. The reports of enemy structures being erected in the Eldar territories. Giant structures descending from the skies producing troops as soon as they land. Giant ships landing with thousands of troops. Governor Militant sent three regiments as reinforcement. Jonas requested additional reinforcement just in case.

A colonel entered his office.

"Lieutenant General! We have the latest report. The Eldar are down to last five strongholds. The Necrons and the Chaos seemed to be aiding the Eldar by attacking the unknown aliens from the sides, but they are also being pushed back. It seems that the aliens are building a large stronghold in the city of Morgrogh, former capital of the Eldar territory. They are also building strongholds in the ruins of the Eldar strongholds."

Jonas slammed his fist on the table.

"The Eldar and the other aliens know something about these new aliens. We do not know anything. The Space Marines seemed to know something… Can you send a company to capture me an Eldar Lieutenant General or someone who knows things?"

"I will send Colonel Derketh, he is the finest specialist we have on the planet, sir."

"Very good. I'm going to talk to the Space Marines whether they know something, or whether they will tell me anything they know."

"Yes, Lieutenant General."

Jonas walked to the Space Marine HQ in the middle of the city in his Power Armour. The White Hammers saluted him. Jonas saw a familiar face. Gilmore.

"Librarian Gilmore! Are you the chief Librarian here?"

Gilmore noticed Jonas.

"Lieutenant General Derius. No, I am here with the Senior Librarian Lantexia."

"I need some information about the new enemy. I was hoping that the Space Marines had some, or at least your Librarians had some."

Gilmore paused. Then he spoke in a low voice.

"Come with me to meet Senior Librarian Lantexia. He may tell you things."

They entered the office of the Senior Librarian. They saluted the aged Librarian who was sifting through documents. The Librarian looked up.

"What is it Librarian Gilmore? Who is this… Imperial Guard?"

"This is Lieutenant General Jonas Derius of the Imperial Guard of Cafalas Regiments, sir."

"Ahh! The famous hero who aided the Space Marines in defeating the foul creatures of Chaos and other aliens."

"I am not a hero, Librarian. I only did my duty and that is nothing special."

"So modest too! You are a pride of the Emperor, young Lieutenant General. Now, what brings you to me?"

"I was hoping that the Space Marines knew something about this new enemy."

Jonas stared at the Senior Librarian. The Librarian sighed.

"Very well, Lieutenant General. I guess we could not hide it for long. The enemy we fight against is from an extragalactic empire called the Dracorania."

"I have never heard of such thing. Why do they have humans in their ranks?"

"We do not know exactly why or how, but we suspect that some humans were taken from the outer planet sometime in the past to be studied, or it is possible, that in the Emperor's vast grace, that there are some humans in their galaxy as well."

"Do we know anything about this Dracorania?"

"We know that they ruled by creatures that call themselves 'Dragons'. They are immense reptilian creatures very much like the mythical dragon creatures in the old Terran cultures pre-Emperor. These creatures have a large empire in a neighbouring galaxy, and they are invading."

"They have humans amongst them. Do these humans know the grace of the Emperor?"

"No, they are unbelievers since they have never been exposed to the Emperor. That is another of our mission to return these lost brothers of mankind to the bosom of the Emperor's holiness."

"They are atheists, or do they believe in something else?"

"They believe in a deity called the Void Keeper. The truth is that we do not know that much about this Void Keeper or its followers. We only know that they are invading in its name."

"They are heretics then. They must be destroyed as well."

"Indeed, Lieutenant General. I am certain that the Space Marines will have the full support of the Imperial Guards?"

"Of course, Senior Librarian. Good day."

"Good day, Lieutenant General."

Brother-Captain Targrith of 4th Company of the Salamanders Space Marine Chapter arrived above Telerix II in the massive battle barge with his men to join the war down on the planet. He found it strange that the fleets of the Imperial Guards and White Hammer Space Marines were not engaging the xeno fleets. The Eldar and Necron forces were all within weapons distance. Yet, the fleets, both of Imperium and of the xenos did not fire but seemed to be waiting for something. Disgusted, he immediately called up the flagships of the Imperial Guard fleet and the White Hammer fleet. An admiral and a chaplain appeared on the screen.

"I am Captain Targrith of the Salamanders Space Marine 7th Company. I demand to know why you are not engaging and destroying the xeno filths! And I am seeing the despicable traitors of Chaos not that far away! What is this? Have you all forgotten your duties? Huh!"

The Chaplain frowned and bowed his head. It was the Imperial Guard admiral who answered.

"My apologies, Brother Captain, however, we are under strict orders to not to engage the aliens unless fired upon."

"Under whose orders?"

"Senior Librarian Lantexia and the Lieutenant General Derius. There is another alien race that is being attacked by all the other alien races. Both the Senior Librarian and the Lieutenant General wishes to wait until they know more."

"They are xenos! It is out first and foremost duty to destroy them, especially the foul beasts of the Chaos."

Then a tech-priest rushed to the Captain.

"Brother-Captain, there is a strange movement in the Warp."

"What is it tech-priest? More enemies?"

"We don't know, Captain. The Machine Spirit cannot decipher this phenomenon."

From the other side of the planet, the space distorted and a strange portal of darkness opened. The sunlight disappeared around it. Then a massive ship exited the portal followed by two dozen smaller ships. The main ship was about 3 km in length, 1 km in height with elongated front section and the main body taking up two third of the length. About half of the ships that followed the main ship were of different design. About 1 km in length, width and height, it had a yellow triangular pyramid in the middle surrounded by black wing section that were sprouted in thee directions. The other half of the smaller ships were not as big, just a few hundred meters in length and quite thin. They were hammerhead design with thick wing sections. Then there were two distinctly different ships that flanked the main ship. They were elongated diamond shape with a tower at the rear of the ship. These were slightly bigger than the yellow pyramid ships. The hammerheads were in the front, as the vanguard of the fleet, and the yellow pyramids brought up the rear. As the strange new fleet moved closer, the main ship began to broadcast in all frequencies including the ones that were meant for the Chaos, Necrons and the Eldar.

On the screen was a human, which surprised the races who received this transmission. The human male with bright red hair was extremely good looking, though in a rather feminine way. It was not the masculine face the Imperial soldiers preferred. It was handsome no matter what. It was a perfect face. The man spoke.

"I am Kafraxialus the Flame Blade, and I am the vanguard of the Dracoranian Expedition Force. Surrender now, and prepare to be boarded in the name of the Dragon Lord and our Lord Void Keeper."

The Eldar responded first, and the Imperials were able to hear the transmission as well.

"I am Farseer Althewe of the Eldar fleet. Leave this galaxy, dragon of Dracorania. This is not your place."

Then the Chaos sent a transmission.

"I am Kar'Varn, the Dark Prince of Boiling Blood, the Champion of the Blood God Khorne! I will tear you apart and enjoy your dragon blood and sacrifice your Dragon Heart to my master!"

Surprisingly, the Necron fleet also responded to the Dracoranian transmission.

"We are the Necrons. We are death. You will only meet your death here."

The Imperials were too stunned to respond quickly but Targrith quickly composed himself.

"I am Captain Targrith of the Salamander Space Marines of the Imperium. You are in violation of our world, and in the most holy name of God Emperor of Mankind, we will purge you along with every other motherfking whoreson xenos!"

The reply came back. The red haired men stared through the screen. Targrith felt as if the eyes of the man were boring into his soul. The irises of the man's eyes were red as blood and it terrified him. A sort of primal fear gripped his heart. This was something the Space Marine was not familiar to. It wasn't even like a psychic attack. It was something primal. A fear that was deep within the genes of mankind. He tried to shake off the fear but for some reason he could not. He invoked Emperor's name and called to him to remove this fear so he may fulfil his duty to the Emperor. It did not avail him. The enemy spoke. It seemed that he was amused by the hostilities.

"Well, then little bugs. I will crush you like I should a den of ants. Mortals of such short lifespan and some aren't even alive. Hear me, creatures of such small vision; you are nothing but a little amusement for my kind. This is the beginning of the fun I will enjoy destroying your pitiful empires. Especially you, human. I will spend next thousand years slowly torturing and reviving you. It will be most enjoyable."

The battle barges and the Imperial ships powered up their weapons and raised their void shield. The Eldar and the Necrons fired first followed by the Chaos and the Imperials. The enemy ships were bombarded by numerous incoming lances and other weapons but they did not take damage. The hammerhead ships and the main ship were protected by shielding that flashed blue as it blocked the attacks. The yellow pyramids had yellow coloured shield that seemed to be weaker than the other one. Three yellow pyramid ships moved down to the planet.

Targrith roared at the tech priests.

"Alert the planet! Three of the enemy ships are going down the planet!"

I hope it was fun. Anything to fix, then post a comment, thanks.
