I know but she makes the traps in places not seen

The psychic wolves tear apart several of the Marines and leave the others horibly injured and unable to fight back against the deadly Dreadnought who decimates those who survive while the Wolves dissiper into dust and echos.

The Chaos Marines take no notice off the Assassin as they continue their patrols and duties , their Champion stays in the middle of the area over viewing his soldiers.

Lotus prepares some more death traps. And places them in the shadows. She notes where she left them and makes a little map in her software. She also activates the scan system to see that if one activates she knows. She also scans every soldier for possible weaknesses and weapon layout

OOC: Ohhh, why couldn't it have happened? Why?! Whyyyyyy?!!!!!!



I look around for anything in the cell which could reach out to get the key...

The room shakes and causing the shields to lower letting Shas free and allowing him to leave the room grabbing his Rail Gun and leaving the Brig which has been fairly damaged , he soon finds himself being attacked by a group of Chaos Marines who pin him behind several crates. The Leader flings a grenade which hits the side of the crate and begins to shake exploding sending Shas flying and causing him to slam into a wall snapping his ankle and leaving him injured while the Chaos Marines move away to battle other escaping Prisoners.

The Chaos Marines seem to be heavily armed and aware of the situation, the Assassins equipment appears to be damaged after the battle and is unable to scan the Chaos Space Marines who soon spot the Assassin and begin firing on her again while turrets assist them as the Champion flings a Melta Bomb which slams into a nearby hill side exploding in a furious blast of magma and snow.

"Argh!" I groan at the pain in my ankle, before grabbing my Rail rifle, and trying to get up. "This is Shas'O Kais, is anybody esle there?"

I also send out a distress signal to all other ships in the vicinity, even Imperial, from my battlesuit.

(You lack a battle suit currently Shas , it was destroyed.)

A Chained Tyranid Gaunt bursts from the prison and hisses at the injured Shas , it raises it's claws and charges intent on devouring him.

I quickly bring up my rail rifle, look down he sights, and fire straight at the beasts head.

I retreat again (come on blood how am i going to beat them if i cant even see what they have.)

Marius feels his ship shudder too, something big just happened and he wants to know what it was, flicking the corpse of the last CSM into a corner he barrels through towards the engine rooms, time to get out of here and get to Kais, he trusted Mikal to get the job done, but a dropship would be a good escape route for them.

He quickly deals to the engine core by disabling the central turbines, they are now completely useless.

He retraces his bloody path to the hangar, his work complete, he had over extended the pressure terminal on the second engine bank, if someone were to initiate a warp jump then the entire ship would explode. They wernt going anywhere, and with no weapons and engines, they were hosed.

Marius straps himself into his harness after checking the hangar for interlopers and then takes of

{Tio this is Icehammer, I need your help}
{reading you clear Icehammer, what can the greater good do for you?}
{We can rescue your general, now lets go}

OOC: Queue dramatic rescue music...

Mikal makes a quick head count and finds that all his brothers have been accounted for...good.

"Quickly now, we must leave the area, the net will close fast..." Mikal's mind races, they needed a diversion, something that would throw the boarding defense forces on the ship off their trail long enough to at least get where they were going.

"Timed explosives, inside the tubes, that'll give em a nasty surprise. Do it, quickly!" He orders, the blood claws set up timed bombs on the inside of their boarding tubes which are sticking through the walls, whoever would come to investigate was going to be thoroughly surprised.

"Alright, lets go, this way, we need to figure out where the brig is!" Mikal called, leading his brothers away just as the chaos forces who had come to defend the ship got there. Mikal smiled behind his helmet as he heard the rumble of the explosives going off. Suddenly, he could see searchlights from up ahead, two pairs were coming down the corridor, searching back and forth. Quickly, Mikal's brothers hid behind crates and other obstacles in the corridor and waited fro the two figures to approach. Soon, they came within striking distance and the blood claws waited for the signal. Mikal could hear the radios of the two Chaos Space marines...

"Be advised, boarders have been reported, all forces on deck 2DK3 to repel boarders!"

Before the marines could react, Mikal and his men were on top of them, the first was torn to shreds but Mikal and two other space wolves managed to pin the other to the deck. Mikal took out his axe and put it to the marines throat while his other brothers set up a perimeter in the corridor.

"Listen and listen good scum, where do you keep the prisoners? Answer me or I will cut you apart piece by piece." Mikal snarls, his glinting and rage filled eyes visible behind his helmet's lenses.

The Thunder-Hawk takes off and leaves the Ships hanger and allows Marius to watch as the ship crashes into a nearby ice canyon , the Thunder-Hawk soon enters the outer atmosphere of Fenris and begins it's flight towards the Chaos Cruiser. Its a shaky ride but Tau and Imperial Ships are able to allow the Thunder-Hawk time to enter a Hanger , the Chaos marines who guard the hanger instantly begin to attack the arriving but soon move back as the Dreadnought appears.

The Gaunt's head explodes in a bloody shower as the Rail rifle shot pierces its skull and allows Shas'O to move away from the brig area as more prisoners emerge from their cells in hope of freedom.

(It says in the post when you first encountered them! Please pay attention.)
The Chaos Marines leave the injured Assassin to the cold of Fernis realising their duties must be fulfilled and return to the small camp.

"Hall-way 328 , take the lift through that doorway and keep moving and you'll find the brig. But do think you'll get far with all the extra security Kremlin placed after a Drop-Ship entered the Hanger."
The Chaos Marine coughs and shakes his head
"But don't think old Kremies you're only problem."

She tries to heal her wounds. Then she activates a sound at one of the death traps.

Mikal mulls over what was said and executes the marine with a swift chop.

"Lets go, we must be swift, this is a simple grab and go operation." Mikal says moving toward the door and the lift.

"Do we even have an exit strategy?" One of his brothers asked.

"He said something about a drop ship in the hanger, we could use that, it would be simple enough." Mikal countered. "We get the prisoner, fight our way to the hangar and escape." The other blood claws nodded at this, reassured.

The lift opened and the brothers piled in. As the lift rose to their destination floor, Mikal checked his weapons, holding his bolt pistol in one hand and an axe in the other. His other brothers were also equipped for the melee of ship born combat and also began checking their weapons and reloading. Mikal lead them in a short prayer which ended as the doors opened, Mikal and three other claws threw smoke and nova grenades into the hallway. Then the charge began.

Mikal rushed forward, ready to chop the first thing he saw through the smoke in half.

A vox to the fang
"This is an operative of the assasinarium. I need an artillary barrage on these coordinates XXXXXXX. It doesnt matter who i am. The most important thing is that i am an ally"

[Sorry but due to me hacking into the system their won't be a barrage and If I change you're words just a bit well you'll see or will you, ha ha]
The Vox cuts out as the Sorcerer laughs

The Space Wolves find Shas'O unconsious on the floor bleeding , he's injured and obviously in pain.

Marius steps down the ramp and blasts the doors back, he doesnt wait for them to fully disengage from the doorframe, he simply keeps going, shunting them aside like so much cardboard.

His massive bulk storms down the corridor butchering those in his way, anouther flimsy door stands in his way, then he hears Mikal's vox

"We get the prisoner, fight our way to the hangar and escape."

{Indeed old friend, as you will be flying with me, now lets get him, where are you? I would rendevous on your position}

Marius watches as Syrath appears , he does not attack Marius but battles several arriving Chaos Marines and sclices them apart and as soon as he sees Marius he bears his claws and hisses.

Begone with you beast, BACK TO THE SHADOWS, a powerful lance of pure energy in the foul creature, he strides forwards and grips the writhing Daemon, Farseer can we stop him from coming back if i destroy him here?

"We cannot, it's impossible to but we could contain him within the Sarchpagos , he would be trapped but he could control you if you're will was low."

(Are my wounds healed?)
I look for the marines to see their reaction.

No, I will not have that thing inside me, he will be taken to the fang, and he will be entombed in a sarchophagus and then he will be dropped down the shaft of Ygddrasil. Noone will ever have to deal with him again.

Marius grips the Daemon tightly and then locks the servos, even if Syrath had chewed through the fibre bundles the adamantium hand would keep him locked there until Marius released him.

Marius began to move twoards the sounds of fighting, towards Mikal, towards Shas

The situation in the brig hallway is chaotic to say the least. Prisoners run this way and that and guards from other areas try to secure the area, falling prey to the Space wolves whom they were surprised by and are quickly cut down.

"Over here, Mikal! We've found a Tau!"

Mikal rushes over to find Shas on the ground and helps him up.

"Is that him?" One of the claws asks.

"Yeah its him, alright we've secured the prisoner, stem the bleeding and patch him up, lets--"

Just then he hears the vox of Marius as he enters the ship. Mikal laughs.

"Good to hear you Marius! We've secured Shas, we are heading toward the Hangar bay from the brig on Hallway 328." Just then, shouts and gunshots can be heard down the hall, bolter fire, Mikal judged.

"Standby, we've got company." Mikal left the injured Shas with the pack and stepped forwards.

"Three of you, stay with me, we will provide cover, the rest of you, get to the hangar and make sure the Tau makes it." Mikal orders "Go!"

The Blood Claws head off and Mikal voxes Marius "Alright Marius, my team is headed in your direction, they've got Shas, I'm providing a rear guard, we'll be at the hangar soon."

With that Mikal cuts the vox and grabs a grenade, lobbing down the hall just as figures appear and are blown away by the explosive. Mikal opens fire with his bolt pistol and the others do the same as they fall back and fire at the same time.

"keep up the pressure, they'll be coming in force soon! Get to the hangar!"

The Chaos Marines seem to be setting up a Vox-blocking device that they begin to activate , the Champion gives orders to the Marines about the device.
(Mostly)

I let the sound boxes sound like they are fenrisian wolves. Hoping that they will walk into the death traps

A group of escaped Orks attack the Space Wolves but are beaten off by the sherr power while Chaos marines advance on the Space Wolves.
"Kremlin wants some off them alive!"

Syrath growls but soon loses intrest and lights a Cigar and slashes at any Chaos Cultists near. They soon reach corridor 328.

(How can syrath do that? Hes locked inside marius his hand)

"Sh*t , let's move I'm not staying here."
The marine runs into a explosive causing the others to lose the will to stay.
(Syrath works in many ways...)

She Didnt make the death traps out of grenades but out of blades cuase grenades are to loud she wants to kill as much as possible with them. (Its an assasin XD always do as less as possible by yourself.)
