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 mostly 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.
Sorry that I haven't posted new chapters for a while, but I was busy trying to get a new job, and I was deeply into Dawn of War! I've been playing it for days! I love it. I coloured the White Hammers and play as them in skirmishes. I love it. I've come up with some new ideas on Orks. A friend of mine told me that the makers of Warhammer once sued Blizzard because of Starcraft and Warcraft, so it gave me an idea.
Don't forget to leave comments and ideas! They feed my creativity!
Chapter 25: Invading Dragons
Aboard the mighty Lair Ship Aralia of Ascaralius the Feared Darkness, the incredibly powerful Ancient Dragon Ascaralius sat in his throne clad in clothes of gold and jewels. The whole chamber was filled with gold and silver decorations and draped with expensive-looking materials between the marble pillars with gold veins running through them. The ends of the robe the dragon was wearing pooled beneath his feet and fanned out for three metres in radius.
The dragon raised its hand, which was clad in completely golden gauntlet with fingers covered with various rings bearing gems. As the finger rose into the air, the dragon raised his head as well. His face was covered with long dark blond hair flowing down to his ankle. Eyes shining like star, the powerful dragon whispered.
"Come in."
The door on the far side of the dome opened, and nine figures appeared. Two were Kull Warriors, and six following them in twos were Jaffa. The one in the very front was wearing similar clothing as the dragon, but on his left hand was a Goa'uld hand device. He was also wearing a golden eye patch over his right eye.
The Jaffa fell to their knees and on their faces. The Goa'uld and the Kulls moved forward and halfway through, and then the Kulls fell on their knees. The Goa'd slowly strolled toward the dragon and about a metre from the edge of the dragon's robe, he fell to his knees and spread his hand. The Goa'uld spoke.
"My most gracious lord Ascaralius, my fleet is gathered for your use."
The dragon sat up.
"Yes, they are, Anuraks. Always remember that you are alive today thanks to my generosity."
"I never forget that, my lord. I am constantly reminded of your greatness."
"Good. Prepare your fleet to move out. I will take Telerix II and remove that young, cocky Kafraxialus."
"As you will, my lord. However, I am concerned that should the Lords of the Dragons know about…"
Ascaralius raised his hand to silence the Goa'uld.
"They will not concern themselves with it. The final Game is close. The end of the Third Age of the Dracoranians is near. Perhaps with this Game, there will not be another, and that means I only have one chance at it."
Anuraks bowed.
"Should they find out about your… associates…"
"They will not, and by the time they do, it will be too late. By the time they find that they have been betrayed and deceived, the Hierarchy would have fallen and a new order would have risen. I shall be the Emperor of the Dragons, and all shall bow before me."
"They should, my lord."
"Are the rest of your fleet ready?"
"They will be ready by the time we have completed the first stage of our plan, my lord."
"You mean 'my' plan."
Anuraks bowed deeply.
"Of course, my lord. I did not mean anything by it, sire. I am nothing but your servant."
"Remember that, Goa'uld System Lord Anuraks, or you shall be dust."

K422D1 was an Imperial colony populated by humans only. Its two moons were mining colonies supplying K422D1's numerous smelters, and the planet's population produced continual stream of equipments, armaments and tonnes after tonnes of metal ingots to be exported to Cafalas IV where they were turned into even more advanced weapons of war. Though not as productive as some other colonies under the influence and control of Cafalas Regiments, it was still an important colony for the war factories of the Imperium.
Though K422D1 was near the boundary of the galaxy and far from many other worlds, it was still considered deep within the Imperium's territory. Thus the defence of this world and its moons were left to the local Imperial Guards and Lord Marshal Hegalis. Since the recent attacks on the Imperium territory by a new enemy, Lord Marshal Joshua Hegalis sent down one of the regiments from Gregoris II, the Barracks World of the Lord Marshal's forces. Unfortunately, the Imperial Navy was too busy and stretched thin that they only left two large transport barges and a handful of officers and crew. This had meant that if an enemy fleet attacks, the local garrison could not do a thing.
It was perhaps because they did not expect the enemy to attack so deep within the Imperial territory and ignore other more powerful targets. They were wrong. Esurenais the blue came upon K422D1 and its moons in her great fleet. Her ships swooped down upon the moons first. The small garrisons of Imperial Guards were quickly overwhelmed. K422D1-L1, the larger and closer moon of K422D1, was inhabitable and a lush jungle moon, with numerous mining towers sticking out of the canopies.
Esurenais walked gracefully through the corridors of her ship to the bridge. The officers and her Guardians all bowed. A man, wearing a helmet of a similar design to that of a Chaos Warmaster, walked up to her and bowed. She raised her fingers and stroked him on his helmet. The man spoke.
"Master, we are now orbiting K422D1-L1 as you have ordered."
"I can see that, my love. You are so cute when you report to me. Begin the construction of my fortress-palace and begin building the Obelisks of Light. I want to bombard that planet down before I send down my forces."
"Yes, my master. All will be as you command."
"Good."

Kafraxialus flapped his massive wings. Great gale formed beneath his wings. He began to rise, and then he moved forward toward east. His great red wings propelled him toward the Imperium held coast. This did not go unnoticed by the Imperium.
Lieutenant General Jonas watched the skies with his binocular and he finally noticed a small dot in the sky. He lowered it and turned around. He spoke to a colonel.
"Colonel, alert the troops. Our enemy is coming."
"Yes, general."
Jonas readied his bolter and tucked it on his belt. Picking up a lasgun, he joined his men on the battlement.
Kafraxialus flew over the ruins of Clone fortress and saw the Imperial forces all along the coast. He growled and lowered himself down to the ground. He saw the field of Imperium soldiers in front of him and roared into them.
"Stand down, soldiers of Imperium, and I shall spare you."
Jonas answered back.
"We are the servant of the God Emperor! We serve mankind! We shall not bow down before the likes of you! All units, fire!"
Thirty thousand Imperial Guards aided by several tanks began to fire. Thousands of red beams hit the dragon, where they were simply absorbed by the thick powerful scales of the dragon. The dragon chuckled and lifted his front feet off the ground and stood up. With a blinding flash, six hundred Kull Warriors and twelve thousand Jaffa appeared behind the dragon. Kafraxialus growled and a layer of forcefield appeared, protecting the dragon from all attacks.
The dragon began to breathe in. In breathing in, he sucked in all mana and various kinds of energies. The beams of lasguns and lascannons curved and were sucked into the dragon's jaw, forming a ball of energy. The sea behind the Imperial Guards began to boil, and then freeze as the heat energy began drain from them. The small grass and planets that upon the battlefield began to wither as their life force were sucked in.
The Basilisks, Hellhounds, various Leman Russ, two Baneblades and numerous Sentinels concentrated their fire upon the red dragon to no avail. The forcefield continued to hold off the attacks and all the energy weapons did were feed the ball of energy gathered in the dragon's mouth.
"Keep firing!"
The Jaffa hid behind the Kull Warriors and the dragon's forcefield, but fired their staff weapon at the Imperial Guards. The Kull Warriors fired their weapons well, but both the Jaffa and Kulls' attacks were also sucked in by the dragon. Then the dragon spread his wings to the full extent and stared down at the Imperial Guards. The ball of energy within his mouth began to spin, and it focused into a tiny dot.
Jonas felt that it was something really powerful, and he was very right. The dragon looked to the right and fired it as he turned his lead to the left. A single, thin beam issued from the dot of energy, and the beam expanded. All across the Imperial Guards' fortifications, incredible explosions disintegrated the human soldiers. The Ogryns and other subhumans cowered as they instinctively felt the power of the enemy's attack. Any who were in the direct fire were instantly vaporised, and the secondary explosions destroyed tanks, artilleries, and anything. Even sea behind them was steaming from the incredible power of the beam.
When the young General Jonas woke up, the fortifications were in ruins. Fully half of the Imperial Guards stationed along the coast were destroyed. Tanks were gone, and the walls all fell apart. The Kull Warriors and Jaffa began to move in, firing their plasma weapons. While the Space Marines would have no trouble killing the Jaffa easily and even some Kull Warriors, the Imperial Guards, broken and injured, were not so lucky. The surviving Imperial Guards fired their lasguns and everything they've got against the Jaffa and Kull Warriors.
The Jaffa, kept on coming even as the lasgun fires sparked upon their crude armour and eventually tear apart, and the Imperial Guards were shot down by the orange plasma shots of the Jaff staff weapons. The Kull Warriors began to slaughter the Imperial Guards. Kafraxialus laughed and rose in to the air once more, and flew toward the island.
Just as Jonas rallied the survivors, help came. A company of White Minotaurs came upon the Jaffa from behind. Even in their thousands, the Jaffa could not withstand the might of the Space Marines, as the White Minotaurs carved their way to the Kull Warriors. The Kulls responded with deadly fire, but the White Minotaurs were prepared. They used the similar shield the Silver Skulls used and the thick metal shield stopped the deadly wrist blasters. As the Jaffa and the Kull Warriors were distracted by the White Minotaurs, the Iron Fists and three thousand Imperial Guards came upon them from behind.
The battle raged and the tanks of Imperial Guard reinforcement crushed the enemies, Jaff and Kull alike, beneath their massive weight. The Land Speeders swooped down; firing their powerful assault cannons, and bringing down dozens of enemies. The powerful ammo shredded the Jaffa and crushed the Kull armour, whereupon the Space Marines jumped on them and cut them to pieces with their melee weapons.
The entirety of the Iron Fist fifth company stepped out from the transports behind the third company and a group of Imperial Guards. Strangely, all one hundred of them, including the sergeants and the leaders of the company were carrying Space Marine issue missile launchers. Guarded by the third company, they all aimed at the dragon, rampaging through the ranks of the Imperial Guards. The captain of the fifth company aimed his missile launcher and shouted the order.
"Fire!!"
A hundred missiles fired and exploded upon the shield the dragon placed, and while most were blocked, a dozen got through, squarely hitting the dragon in the back. The dragon screamed in pain, and he turned around to face another volley of missiles. About twenty missiles hit the dragon in the chest, forcing it to step back. Still screaming in rage and pain, the dragon placed three layers of forcefield around him. The fifth company, supplied by the Imperial Guards nearby, continued to fire the missiles, breaking down two layers of shields.
Unable to withstand the impact, the dragon flapped its wings once more, creating such strong wind that it flipped Imperial Guards and knocked aside the missiles. Lifting itself into the air, the dragon began to move toward the sea. The Imperial Guards fired their lasguns and the tanks and Sentinels fired their weapons upon the dragon, and the as the powerful weapons of the Imperial Guardsmen impacted upon the softer underbelly of the dragon, the dragon wavered. Jonas glimpsed the dragon's wings slow down, and felt goo that his forces would finally bring down the beast.
This hopeful thinking did not last. The Kull Warriors began to push forward as much of the Imperial Guards' firepower was redirected to the dragon. The Space Marines quickly attacked the Kull Warriors, but the dragon flew away toward the island and the Imperial Guards were forced to fire upon the Kull Warriors and the Jaffa for their own survival.
I hope it was fun. Anything to fix, then post a comment, thanks.
