IMPERIAL REPORT #07 2016-08-19 0844

The door opened, and an object flew out of it, a bucket, the good part is that it was going at a very low speed therefore it just simply hit my flak armor and bounced off harmlessly.

The inside of the room was the same as all the others, not different at all, the one main difference is that this room had a person who was actually alive and could speak. Quite a finding in this damm ship as far as I am concerned.

The man had thrown the bucket with his mouth; he had bitten it and threw it towards the door, the first sound was created by a shattered glass, I imagine he must have thrown it too and shattered when it impacted the door.

The man looked at my chaos friend standing behind me and in relief said "what the heck took you so long man? I was getting worried"

My chaos friend answered "I was explaining things to my friend here standing, who went to the trouble of releasing me", pointing a finger at me.

The man in the chair looked at me and said "dude… he is only a kid, what in the emperor's tits is he doing here"

My chaos friend shrugged his shoulder and looked at the man in the chair with a face of: don't ask me dude, how the fuck would I know"

I like the immature kid I am, laughed at the insult the man in the chair said.

"Whatever" the man in the chair said, "Not like it matters anymore, he is already here with us. Please help me get this cuffs off, I'd much prefer being in a sunny planet far away from the shithole this ship is"

Me and my chaos mate released the cuffs holding the man in place, he then stood up, and with a very large smile looked at me and said "Thank you very much, I owe you. My name is Tihield"

My chaos mate looked at me and said, "oh right, I never told you my name"

Tihield looked at him disgruntled and said "what a lack of manners man, were you raised amongst wolves?"

My chaos friend looked at Tihield and answered "Wolves? You mean space wolves? Or the cute ones?"

Tihield responded with a slight smirk on his face "you mean the space wolves aren't cute? Have you ever looked at them after they get drunk?"

My chaos mate answered "wait… can they get drunk?"

Tihield shrugged and said "well once I met this space wolf in a bar, and he looked pretty drunk to me, he beat the crap out of 15 men on his own, and he claimed it was for the glorious emprah's tits, after that I never heard of him again, best part is: none of the 15 men left alive"

My chaos mate looked at me and said "I'm sorry; Tih always makes me lose focus, as I was saying my name is, Protsmeias"

I looked at them both and said "My name is Zorelnam, a pleasure to meet both of you"

Protsmeias and Tih looked at each other and awed, Tih said "You must be the only person with manners in this ship. Anyways let's go, I know the way to the armoury, there we can get some "propa orka steel"" then giggled himself out of the room.

Once Tih left the room Protsmeias told me "don't worry about him, he might be kind of weird but he isn't a bad man"

I answered with a short smile, after that both me and Protsmeias followed Tih through the dark and horrid corridors, I have to admit having 2 people by my side was much less scarier than being on my own.

While we were walking down the corridor, Tih said "ooops hold on, there is someone in this room I have to visit"

He unlocked the door and walked right in without a second thought. Once inside he said "Hello dear, how are you doing?"

I walked inside the room after Tih, Protsmeias was right behind me.

Inside the room I saw a woman tied to a chair, much like the other 2 were when I found them, but this one was slightly different.

"She must be a mutant I thought to myself" the woman had very large and pointy ears, I have to admit she was very, very pretty, I didn't think much of the woman, after all mutants do exist.

Tih seemed happy, the woman's expressionless face didn't allow for much interpretation, but I assumed she was glad of seeing Tih as well, Protsmeias kept silent all the time, and I think he was quite wary of what was going on. I kept silent too; I didn't want to interrupt the seemingly happy couple.

Then the woman spoke "you took so long I was thinking you betrayed me" the accent of the woman was… very strange, almost alien, and for some reason I can't help but feel she spoke with an air of superiority, and arrogance at the same time.

Then Tih said "don't thank me, it was this fellow here who rescued me" pointing his finger at me.

He then presented us; Tih kept on talking "Our saviour over here is called Zorelnam". Patting me in the head, "and my friend over there is called Protsmeias"

He then spoke to Protsmeias and me and said; "My friend over here is called Xhaiakeraris"

I smiled at the woman and waved my hand at her; the woman looked at me expressionless and then directed herself at Tih "why is there a child in this ship?"

Tih shrugged and said "we don't know"

The woman looked displeased, almost as if my existence bothered her, she didn't look at me or Protsmeias anymore, ignoring us both, I couldn't avoid but sense she felt disgusted at Protsmeias.

I wanted to ask quite a few questions, but I felt a sense of urgency, getting off this ship was more important than the questions.

Tih stated, well now that that's taken care of lets go to the armoury, Tih happily hoped outside of the room, I followed immediately after, Protsmeias behind me and Xhaia last.

The only weapons in the group were held by me and Protsmeias, the power sword, the laz rifle and the laz pistol, behind me Protsmeias was carrying the ripped off tyranid arm, quite gross if I may add. Both Tih and Xhaia are unarmed.

I directed myself at Tih while we were walking and told him "hey, take this, you seem to be in need of a weapon" handing him the laz pistol and some power cells. He answered "Thank you very much" taking the laz pistol into his hands and the power cells into his pocket.

Then I fell behind Protsmeias and directed myself towards Xhaia, I said "hey uhmm… why don't you take this, it's better than being unarmed" handing her the laz rifle.

She looked at the laz rifle in utter and complete disgust, almost as I if I had insulted her, for some reason I felt I had insulted her in some way. She kept silent and erased my existence from her mind; she just simply didn't even bother to look at me anymore.

After being so utterly and mercilessly threated I returned to my position between Protsmeias and Tih.

Then Protsmeias suddenly whispered "Halt, I sense something" Xhaia said "I sense it too" in her alien accent.

Tih looked worried, and removed the safety from the laz pistol; I huddled against a wall and took aim at the front of the formation, to the side Tih was standing.

Protsmeias Violently grabs me and throws me towards Xhaia's direction. Out of nowhere the ventilation duct right above me breaks and a huge serpent like creature falls down on my previous location with claws pointing downwards, capable of slaying anyone that would have been standing there.

Tih immediately opens fire, all of his shots have very little effect on the creature, Protsmeias does… something and seems to stun the creature with his mind, in this opening of the creatures guard Protsmeias goes straight for the creature, grabbing one of the creature's claws while landing a nice knee to the face on the creature, throwing the serpent like being with back towards the floor, with his other arm he stabs the creature from side to side with the tyranid arm he was carrying, impaling the creature to the floor, after this Protsmeias jumps away from the creature.

However Protsmeias efforts seem to have very little effect on the creature as it keeps moving on what seems to be spasms, throwing its claws around, slowly detaching the tyranid arm impaling it, in this moment I realise that the creature seems to be covered by the same shell the others before were, therefore I assume my laz rifle will have little to no effect on the being.

I throw the laz rifle on the floor and draw the power sword; the power sword is quite heavy in comparison to the laz rifle and makes me quite slow when moving however this does not stop me.

I move closer towards the creature, its arms move very fast, faster than I can, however if I manage to land a single cut to one of them I could cut it right off, I swing the sword, but the being is faster than I and my swing misses its target.

The creature fully manages to detach itself from the tyranid arm impaling it, the being get up at an incredible speed and faces me, I can see on the other side Tih still firing the laz pistol still yielding no effect, the monster rushes towards me, at massive speed, I lower the power sword to have the point of it facing the monster, suddenly something goes over my shoulder, like a missile hitting the monster on its bony chest, as soon as it hits the monster it dissipates.

The monster loses its balance and hits a wall at a very high speed, sending it flying towards me, I can feel the power sword sinking into something, and green liquid begins flowing over me.

*gshhsgs* I can feel the guts of the being slowly leaking out making disgusting noises.

I can't get up; the monster fell on me with its back, crushing my legs with its shell, the power sword proved to have no problem dealing with the shell as it cut right through it, however I am not a power sword and my legs hurt a lot.

Then I see Protsmeias grab the serpent like creature and lock it in place, while Tih get really close, presses the laz pistol in the forehead of the creature and proceeds to empty the power cell on its forehead.

*Pew Pew Pew* the laz pistol sings, after a few seconds of mindless shooting from Tih the creature moves no more. Protsmeias grabs the corpse of the being and throws it to the side, releasing my legs.

However my legs still hurt a lot, Protsmeias gets close and looks at them and says "looks like it shattered the bone, stay still", much like the last time, he presses his hand on my leg, I feel pain and then the pain leaves me as he stops pressing my legs.

I can walk again.

I get up and sheath the power sword, grab the laz rifle and get ready to keep on going.

After that, the four of us kept walking down the hallway filled with horrors. Secretly hoping we didn't have to deal with any more of them.

This was when I noticed I was the smallest in terms of size in the group, Protsmeias is the tallest, he towered over me like a mountain, Tih is somewhat taller than me, not by much, but at least half a head taller, Xhaia is slightly taller than me, she is smaller than Tih but taller than me.

We kept on walking for what seemed an eternity until Tih violently stopped, opened a door and hopped right inside, the three of us behind him followed inside the room, Xhaia closed the door behind us.

Inside the room was awesome, there were weapons everywhere, and this armoury was much larger than the one I had previously been in, this armoury had a much larger variation of weapons and armour.

Instantly Tih stated "everyone grab the best shit available, of course, assuming you want to live"

Protsmeias got into a suit which looked much like caparace armor from the Stormtrooper propaganda back home, it also had a nice helmet which had red glowing eyes on it grabbed himself a bolt pistol which I recognized from imperial propaganda, in which the commissar is shooting it at incoming orkz. He got a huge knife, which quite honestly looked more like a sword than a knife, as a primary weapon he took a plasma rifle after that he grabbed a lot of ammunition.

Tih also jumped into caparace armor, he grabbed a bolt pistol, a knife, and a hellgun, left the laz pistol I gave him and grabbed as much ammunition as he could, I have to admit I was surprised by how many pockets that suit had. He also snatched a couple of krak and frag grenades.

Xhaia disappeared out of my sight.

I found a particularly strange looking gun, which was called a pulse carbine, as Tih explained to me, he stated "that thing is much more powerful than any weapon you will find, but pray you do not get found by any imperial or they will kill you for using heretical weaponry"

As armour I removed my flak armor, and got inside a very strange looking suit, it wasn't caparace armor or any kind of armor I had seen before it was very different, it had a pair of grav-chutes in the back, Tih called them prototype grav-chutes. According to him the inquisitor was very influential and for her inquisitorial Stormtroopers ordered the design of a new kind of grav-chute, these grav-chutes possessed a self-reloading battery, which did not need a power source replacement and could also fly upwards.

I have to admit, getting into the suit was really hard, and thankfully Tih helped me and was much easier to jump into it.

overall inside the suit was pretty comfortable, it also had an stunning amount of pockets, it had about 10 small pockets and 3 very large ones, when I say small I mean you could store rations or ammo in them no problem, when I say very large I mean you could store about 2 bolt pistols in them, heck there was even space for a knife.

And the best part, the grav-chutes were retractable, so they didn't impede movement at all in close quarters, when retracted they look like a back pack.

After getting in the suit, I attached the scabbard of the power sword to the suit, took as many power cells as I possibly could for the pulse carbine, in fact, I had so much space that there was not enough ammo to fill all my pockets. Then, just in case also took a combat knife, which the suit had a pocket especially for it in the chest, the handle of the knife could be easily reached in that spot. As I had extra space I decided it would be wise to take some krak and frag grenades too.

After all of that Xhaia re-appeared.

Xhaia was… stunning, she wore a very alien looking suit and weapons, none of them seemed human made at all, the helmet was strangely designed, the suit was white.

She then lowered her weapon and aimed at us.

Time to die filthy mon-keighs.

It was in this moment, everyone in the room allowed an audible "oh shit" slip through their lips.

It was in this moment, we knew, we fucked up.
