The Tau ships enter combat with Chaos Assault ships firing bolts of plasma against the modified Chaos Craft using technology from the Super Carrier such as Plasma Cannon Vents and heat controls. They soon move into close range combat with the Tau ships to hope of destroying key systems and boarding the Tau craft.
"Shas'O Kais they have deployed several boarding craft and Drop-Ships which are entering our main Hanger. Our Fire Warrior teams have been forced to Seal off the area and set up makeshift barricades as the Chaos Marines strength and numbers were to high. Battle-Suits and Pathfinder teams have begun to deploy and are deactivating pressurized systems in the hanger along with the Gravity stabilizers but we fear they will break through. What are you're orders."

Three Thousand Sons are cut down by the Memory Blades as the Assassin slices them apart with ease before decapitating and impaling a Cultist and slicing another into several pieces with a simple flick of her blades. Two Chaos Marines mount Heavy-Bolter turrets and take aim at the Assassin and firing rapidly at her.

"fourth claw and second cla change into the space wolves' armor"
"why milord?"
" your going to walk up to the artillary base pretending to be the wolves from the other base, I have the troop record of that last base, don't forget to Memorize the name and background the man who armor your wearing."
take weapons from those we catured to"
"yes sir"

"Hold the line, and do not let them get through. I myseolf will go to meet them in battle. Just keep firing our most powerful weapons, and make sure the shields do not go down."

"Yes Shas'O I will have our technicians prepare you're new XV9-01 Battle-suit for Deployment. The Other Battle Suits have been successful in holding the line but do need support."
Kroot and Tau Fire Warriors rush by ready to combat the Chaos Marines.

The disguised Night-Lord Marines gain entry into the compound with ease as the unwary Space Wolves simply believe they are a returning Patrol. With entry to the base complete the Night Lords systematically begin to gun down any Space Wolves and De-activate any security systems.

I jump out of the way into the shadows (btw the tousand sons are in extreme disadvantage because their master the sorceror is going insane and tries to scratch out his eyes they wont get any commands or even worse they wont get their dose of warp energy and just return to dust.) I search for the sorceror who is commanding this unit. I search him with witch sight and then i use my animus on him

I relunctantly accept the battlesuit (I do prefer not to use them), but thank for hits strength, and use it to fight the Chaos Marines, blasting blazes of destruction.

The Sorcerer quickly falls causing the Thousand Sons to slow and make easy targets to the Assassin who cuts them down with utter ease clearing the path into the inner Chaos Encampment were even more Cultists and Chaos Space Marines await.

The Chaos Marines are of the Word Bearers Legion who fight with utter dedication using their dead as sand bags and barricades as they attempt to push forward against the Tau lines killing scores of Fire-Warriors however as the Shas'O arrives they begin to fall back as they are killed one by one.

When i walk closer i see that everybody feels me because the tension rises i already see my target because he is getting even more crazy. I load my animus till its max potential (limited because i have an emergency level. And try to get as many of them close to each other by throwing a stone. I want to kill the sorceror on a special way so i will kill him as last.

The Chaos Marines begin firing on the Assassin forcing her to take cover as they begin to set up turrets and Heavy Weaponry while Cultists move forward as Cannon fodder.

Marius looks down at Mikal If the wolf lords accept Shas's help then he will be able to reach the planet and leave it again in saftey... We are honorable Mikal, im sure you know tha..

Marius entire chassis, is rocked by a blast as an artillery shell lands nearby, Enough! We will continue this later, in the mean time, PRO TOTUS ABBAS

Marius sets himself firmly in the snow and begins to unleash waves of assault cannon fire into the cohorts of advancing thousand sons

The Ranks of the Thousand Sons lowers instantly as the Auto-Cannon rips through them like a pack of wolves, they turn there attention to Marius firing Bolter rounds made of fire and magic at the hulk of a Dreadnought which burns and sizzles as it hits the armor but fail to pierce it however they continue to advance lead by a Sorcerer who rides of a Wave of energy and magic that flows like water but freezes in mid air and become a insect like creature that breathes white fire and roars Daemonic chants as it attacks its victims. The Sorcerer points to Marius as the Thousand Sons advance and barks order in some form of a Daemonic language long forgotten by Mankind. The Wave of Magic reforms into the insectiod creature once again and fires bolts of crackling energy at Marius.

the remaining Night lords charge into the lowered main gates.
"Fith claw set up here and kill an who flee"
"fourth and second claw remove you helmets so there is no cofustion, and make your way to the armory"
"first and thrid claw stay on me we are headed to the control bunker"

Marius feels the ripple of energy as the force waves flowing towards him and his mindset becomes grim. He fires disciplined streams straight at the sorceror and prepares himself for the impact.

PRO TOTUS ABBAS!!!!!!!!

His chassis quakes as the warp sorcery hits him but even through his sarcophagus he can feel that it isnt nearly as powerful as it should be, he can feel the energy being siphend of by the mystical protection of the wolftail talismans and also the mental energies of the farseer holding the sorcery at bay.

Marius moves forwards through the stream of energy pushing his massive armoured bulk through it like a steam train.

When the energies subside it is to see the strange insect infront of him with the sorceror atop it, hundreds of scorchmarks all over the nsect and the sorcerors armour, attest to the Assaultcannons impacts, but none of them seem to have damaged the beast.

Marius reaches to his back holster and draws his massive sword.

Back to the warp foul beast. The Allfather will protect me as I fight in his name. Back to the warp foul beast. The Allfather will protect me as I fight in his name.Back to the warp foul beast. The Allfather will protect me as I fight in his name....

Marius's chant is unbroken even as he prepares to defend himself against the creature.

"Finish them all! Push them back!"

I slam my arm into one of the Marines who got a little bit too close, and send him flying into his comrades, abefore bringing my weapons back up, and firing at the enemy.

The Daemon engages with Marius at close range using its long talon like claws to slash at the Dreadnought while the Sorcerer uses warp fire to protect himself , Marius swipes his axe right through the Insects thorax before performing a quick and fatal upper cut through its massive jaws. As the Sorcerer jumps away from the dying beast Marius crushes it under his massive foot.

Shas'O T'au Kais's Burst Cannon forces the Chaos Marines into cover but soon takes damage as a Heavy Bolter Marine rushes forward destroying the Battle Suits leg and causing him to fall.

The command room is guarded by 4 Blood Claws who instantly start firing at the Night Lords wounding Third Claw.

I jump into the darkness and set loose the death strings these are strings which are connectect to the ends of my finger tips they cannot be seen only when trained with them. I start slicing and dicing on the group killing all in just ten seconds. My animus still at limited max i begin to find a weak spot in the marine defence.

First and thrid claw unload bolter rounds on the Blood claws, killing two. a meta in thrid detroys the legs of another, and Kalrix's flamer kill the last one.
second and fourth claw are slowed by a pair of serfs with autoguns.

I fall to the ground, but continue to fire with my weapons, and yell to my Fire Warriors.

"Throw explosives!" while I get out of the battlesuit and get out my rail rifle to snipe the Chaos forces.

As Shas leaves his Battle Suit a Chaos Marine stands over him, he looks down at Shas but is killed as a Rail Rifle shots pierces his Helm. Tau Pathfinders armed with Rail Rifles arrive and push them back into the Hanger while Explosives are placed around the doors sealing the entrance to the hanger.

The Control Room is taken after heavy fighting as Chaos and Imperial Aircraft battle over head while the other rooms require far more viscous fighting causing several Night-Lord casualties.

As the Assassin is wounded by a Bolter shot made by a Chaos Marine as he takes a pot shot forcing the Assassin into cover.

I look for a weak point WHILE i am in cover!

"Perfect! Now activate turrets in the hangar to finish them off!"

ITS A SWORD

but sweet anyway

Marius turns his attention to the rest of the thousand sons and to his brothers, how were they faring?

Mikal and the rest of his brothers were preoccupied keeping the advancing Thousand Son infantry off of Marius as he battled the sorcerer. The Blood claws fought bravely, felling many times their own number of cultists . Mikal himself was a killing machine, spitting death with every pull of the trigger and swipe of his axe.

A lull in the fighting occurred briefly as the sorcerer was destroyed by Marius. Mikal saw the death of the enemy and let out a joyous howl, raising his bloodstained axe into the frigid air.

"Another victory in the name of Russ!"

The Space Wolves Blood Claws had entered combat , both sides had taken casualties but this skirmish would soon be won by the Wolves, the Sorcerer was limping away as his mount falls to the ground limp and dead after its beating.

The Assassin views the gun line seeing a small Weak point of Cultists armed with Auto guns taking up positions behind crates preparing to battle their enemy. They shout praises to Chaos as they prepare to charge the assassin.

"We've lost the turrets sir but we've begun Hanger self destruction. we should clear the area soon."

I throw hallu grenades. And rush forward letting my skull mask laugh. I then fire my animus at the marines while i slice every cultist into pieces with the death strings. While i do this is sent smoke bombs flying. And i shoot my animus on every marine except the sorceror

The Cultists and Marines fall to the ground quickly as the Assassin destroys them utterly and watches as the Sorcerer cowers in fear.

I walk to him and bin some of my strings around his neck and his hands and legs. "I have always be alone and been treated like a monstrosity. You fear me dont you?" The sorceror nods afraid. Then i will set you free from your fear. I take of his helmet and take of mine. Revealing a beutiful 21 year old woman with pitch black eyes and hair. Now come here i will set you free. I kiss him on his forehead. He slowly turns into black ash because with the touch of skin on skin a psykers powers turn his blood into fire. "Now you are free may the emporer guide you and forgive you for your sins" i walk away putting my helmet back on. + its done lord is the hunt starting and may i seek for them or will you still guide me?+

"Marvelous Assassin, I'll enjoy gutting you but still slicing you apart but alas my revenge lies elseware you souless piece of nothing!"
Syrath appears and dissipers in a lash of black flames , his shadow remains still and turns White summoning more Daemons.

So you wish to destroy me? I know you feel me and i know you fear me as you should and now begone or i will banish you. My animus is charging again and i prepare banishment spells only beaten by the grey knight ones. So what will it be syrath do you want to die again or not? i also ready one psyk out grenade (especially effective against demons because they exist because of magic and without magic the demonskin will tear itself apart if you read nemesis you will understand and it is decribed in full detail.)

Marius locks the Limping sorceror in his targetting martix and opens fire
