Every marine on the bridge raises his weapon. Eladius grimaces. Fighting with Xenos and heretics. This day got better and better. Perhaps he should have just gone down with the ship...

Fire!

The Employer doesn't move, it simply grabs a Space marine with it's telekinesis and drags him towards it before tearing the marine in two. The Employer grabs the Captain and slams him against the floor before sending the others flying.

More marines storm up to the bridge from the hangar. Eladius jumps up and slashes at the Employer that attacked him.

Protect the Eldar!

The remnants of the Draconic Guard charge to Eladius' side, as the rest of the marines take up positions in front of Beltyan and Kais

The Employer moves forward and slams the Captain into the wall and holds him down, a long blade emerges from the inside of the Employers helm;

"The Gore Dragons would pay greatly for your Gene-seed and head, I will enjoy this."

The Blade begins to pierce the armour of the captain but Hunter runs forward and activates his blade before plowing it into the Employers helm

"I don't think we can win, but we better think of something if we want to."

Kais jumps into battle, he had been readying his new X-15 Prototype Battlesuit for some time, and now had the chance to use it.

He challenged the Employer, with his Elite Fire Warriors taking up positions beside him, before he yelled to the others,

"Ludias, Bel, get to Endgame!" he shouts, reading his four massive railguns on the battlesuit. "Hunter stay with them! Everybody else, FIRE!!!" he shouts, before rushing to fight the Employer.

Kais feels the foul grip of the Employer and begins to open fire, the entire room opens fire causing the Employer great damage but it doesn't give up and drags Kais towards it;

"I'll spare you and every being in this room for the Eldar, he will not perish and we will even return him to you."

"I will not let one deformed finger of yours touch him, DAEMON!" Kais shouts before firing his railguns at point blanc range.

The Employers metal form collapses reveling it's true form, a hideous bone dragon that hisses and screeches at the bridge crew. The Daemon roars and screams as it grabs Kais by the head and slams its bladed talons into his right eye, Kais almost falls from the utter agony as his eye pops in a bloody blast and the Daemon goes for another attack but it stops as Syrath tackles it by the waist and pushes it to the ground only to be fired into the wall.

Kais roars in pain, but he isn't finished.

He overcharges his suit, and charges into the Employer, before firing the over powered railgun shots, the power blast enveloping them both...

An assault squad and a tactical squad escort Beltyan and Ludias away. Seeing the Shas'O's attack, the closest marines fall back, a Draconic Guard pulling Eladius out of the way. The rest of the marines open fire on the Daemon. As Kais fires his railgun, most of the Marines take cover in time, but a few are blown to pieces in the blast.

Kais is wounded and is forced to crawl away from the rising Employer, it ignores the attacks and grabs Bel with it's Telekinesis and crushes every one of the Bridge crew into the walls and laughs coldly as another Employer enters the room and smashes open the Windows and flee, taking Bel with them. The blast shields raise with the crew shell-shocked and wounded.

OOC: Awww, c'mon! I fired four point black overcharged railgun shots into it and it wasn't even fazed!

And I could swear Bel was already going to the hangar...

IC:

Kais is badly hurt, and he knows he shouldn't, but frags himself up, and orders everybody to get into thier ships and follow the Employer.

OOC: I agree with Kais

IC:

Eladius screams with rage, his men cannot die like this for nothing. Kais will have to answer for this, but that can wait. Without thinking, He activates his jump pack and shoots under the closing blast door, his eyes and hands glowing with blood-red psychic energy.

You will die, Daemons!

Blasts of energy fly at the Employers, and then Eladius slashes at one of them, leaving him badly wounded.

Get down to the hanger, I don't know what the Captain is thinking, but he will need rescue when his rage has abated

OOC: Its alright Shas...this actually saves me the trouble of giving myself up...

Beltayn watched as the tau and marines both fought to keep him safe. But he knew how foolhardy to was to try to fight a greater daemon in the Eye of Terror. He saw Ludias headed away from the action on Shas O's orders. Ludias looked back at Beltayn as he hesitated. The two looked at each other for a silent moment and Ludias could see the resignation in Beltayn's eyes.

"If I do not give myself up, they will kill all of us, and then what will that accomplish? I'm so sorry Storm, but this is how it must be." Beltayn said as he turned away from him, and walked back towards the Employer. He stood with his arms open in an inviting gesture.

"Take me and be done with it, leave them alone and I will go!" He shouted to the Employer as it struggled with the Marines and Tau. The Employer looked at him, laughed deeply in its throat, then grabbed him and fled with supernatural speed. Beltayn sagged against its grip, he didn't want this, but it was the only way it could have happened, he looked up at the Employer as they left.

"What in the name of Khaine do you want me for warp scum?"

(OOC) The Employers can take mass damage, but will be weakened if you cause enough. The Employer could of killed you if it was at full power but relised it was pointless to fight you

"We are sir, they have entered the Chaos Carrier and have begun to prepare Drop-Ships for the planet. If we are to catch them we must hurry."


The Employer is weakened but is able to regain some of its strength as it enters the Chaos Craft, it looks over to Bel'tyan.

"To destroy the Cadian Gate we require a fleet of unimaginable power that will crush the humans with a quick strike, your foolish race lead us to such a fleet but only the touch of one like you would achieve this Eldar."

OOC: Big Mek, I never put that the blast would hurt any marines, it just enveloped the Employer and and Kais...

IC:

"Bel'tayn!" Kais shouts, not letting it be. "Everybody get to the hangar! NOW!!!"

When he was there, Kais ran to the silver shark, and ordered the pilot to fly towards the fleeing Employers, and it left just after the Elite Fire Warriors jumped on.

The Silver Shark makes it towards the Chaos Carrier, its massive but doesn't open fire on the approaching craft. Several Chaos Craft appear but flee as the craft begins its decent towards the planet releasing multiple fighter squadrons to battle the Silver Shark .

"Pilot, fire all weapons! We are not losing this one!"

Several of the Fighters explode instantly and begin to flee as the Dark Eldar begin to systematically hunt them down with a fierce instinct.

OOC: Yeah, if you read my post, I said that it killed some marines before. I'm just trying to add a bit of dimension to my character...

Eladius propels himself towards the wounded Employer again and grabs it. He screams at it, the Red Thirst and the Warp fueling his rage. He tears at the Daemon, while the other flies away with Beltyan.

A Stormraven explodes out of the hanger and flies towards Eladius.

What the hell is he trying?

Gah, I could have changed the tide here and you fools go on without me.
(Before the employer gets back to his ship)
Ludias and Hunter get into Endgame and exit the hangar swiftly catching up with the employers, Ludias drops behind the one carrying WARORK and Hunter unleasehes a full 5 second blast of the Lascannon Repeaters

The armoured Employer nods to the damaged one who rushes towards the foe, it fires bolts of energy that almost destroy the right wing of the fighter but is able to side step the attack. It turns it's attention to Luidias who grabs onto it's bent and twisted horns and despretly tries to push him away from it's face.

o.O This is in the ship... in space... as they are heading to their ship.... did i miss something?

The Stormraven flies alongside Eladius, who is still ripping into the Daemon without relent. The side door of the Stormraven opens.

Captain! You need to get on board!

Eladius screams in rage and continues his attack. The Employer is becoming weaker as Eladius' psychic and physical attacks strike him.

(OOC) OK lets just get this straight.

1: Luidias is fighting Employer 1, who is damaged

2: The Captain would be dead by now if he was fighting the other Employer which he isn't, it fled with Bel

3: The Tau and Dark Eldar are fighting Chaos fighters

OOC: How can you just decide something isn't happening? I posted about 3 posts of this fight, the first one only just after the employers escaped, and you're only just now responding to it. And the fact that the other one is fighting Ludias doesn't make any sense, considering they're in space and Ludias is in a ship... if the ship is breached, which it would have to be if the employer was attacking Ludias, it would have depressurized and he would be dead.

1: In the Eye the laws of Gravity, Space and general time do not apply

2: Because of Marta wishing to intervene I had to change the posts

3: Luidias would obviously have a suit that is pressurized itself, Hunter as well

4: Luidias left the ship leaving Hunter to assist the Dark Eldar

5 There are 4 Employers, two attacked the ship. The first Employer was damaged and forced to flee with Bel, the 2nd assisted in the escape and had to push you way

6: I'm the Game master and my decisions directly effect the RP

7: You can follow the Employers if you want to

Thanks for clearing that up, i was just a little annoyed that my previous posts seemed to have been ignored. tbh, I'm getting a little bored with this anyway, I'm gonna leave for now.

So your leaving the RP? That is disappointing

Void War Part 2

Objectives
*1: Find Bel
*2: Stop the Employers using Bel

Bel is dragged through a dark grey tunnel, flickering lights dot the hall way as he is thrown before an Employer who taps his head with a long skeleton like arm that is combined with wires and metal. Its head is different to the other Employers, a large Defiler like helm that sports two horns and several green glowing eyes;

"This is the one? Such a frail thing, hard to believe this is a threat. And funny to know that our plan has worked since the begging. We have done allot of things to find you, allot of things indeed."

Coraks the Daemon Prince from earlier strides through the corridor and bows before the Employer and rises;

"My lord we have prepared a transport for you and our defenses have been readied, I shall remain here until you reach the surface and continue the defense from the Tau and Space Marines."
