Koron noticed the swath of destruction being carved out 3 kilometers due south east of his current position. It was most likely more Tyranids but it couldn't possibly be any worse then what was chasing him now and headed in that direction. After jumping out the plane window, the predator chasing him turned out to be a carnifex as it plowed its head and body through the remains of the hospital facility. Lucky its bulk and mass prevented it from scaling the buildings but that didn't stop it from smashing them down, it also roared in frustration attracting uncountable termagaunts and warrior organisms that tailed Koron. Only the most stupid or determined of tyranids managed to obstruct Korons path they where easily brushed aside with a quick slash from his combat blade however they where become far more numerous and Koron even glanced Genestealers occasionally as he hastily deiced to jump left or right as he continued to run from the Tyranids. They easily kept pace, especially with the carnifex bulldozing a clear path for the more slower and powerful organisms. Koron thought fast, spotting a major gas main a few meters ahead with an underpass running beneath it. It was a long shot but Koron jumped from the building top landing ontop of the major gas main and started hacking away at the outer plating with his combat blade, putting himself between it and the carnifex charging up the ruined causeway. At first the blade did nothing to the reinforced outer shell of the gas main, Koron heard the whumps and thumps of the Tyranid carnifex getting closer. Roaring in frustration Koron gave the main one last strike which was able to penetrate the shell but the blade had embedded itself in the pipe and Koron could feel an immense pressure building up through the hilt of the blade. Gripping tightly to the hilt Koron used its embeddment to his advantage throwing himself upwards and over the pipe just as the carnifex lunged strikeing where Koron was but a moment ago. Korons combat blade then flew out of the tear smashing into the carnifex, followed by the fast whoosh of flammable gasses the carnifex roared in anger only to ignite the gases which resulted in a fireball that illuminated the whole of the underhive. Koron was near dead as he stumbled into an alley spotting what he thought he saw was a servent of chaos, his vision was once more dimmed from the sheer amount of hellish effort that he had put his body through. He couldn't clearly see who or what kind of creature it was only his instinct to survive kicked in as he raised his bolt pistol and pointed it to the creature wielding a large hammer. "Take me to the chaos host or die down here with the rest of them"
Alright I'm back now where were we oh yes Steelfang and his selected comrades charged directly into the Imperial Guard postion their weapons drawn the hum of power weapons were acompanied by the whirl of chain weaponss the rest of Steelfang squad spat out a hellish fury at the Imperial Guardsmen keeping them pinned down long enough for their small assualt group to close the gap all in a matter of moments Steelfang cleave several guardsmen in one fell slice followed up by serveral more with a close range burst of bloter fire las fire harmlessly fizzling out on his might power armor even his suits machine spirit found these feable attempts at stoping them amusing Steelfang impaled the guard standard bearer from the top of his skull and coming out the other end as the Guard's banner fell the rest of the squad decended on the enemy it was a blood bath as ten massive Iron grey inhuman monsters tore the poor guardsmen to shreads their remains were flung everywhere it became impossible to tell which piece belonged to who the blood that ran like a river made the floor slick giving the remained guard even more trouble keeping their balance let alone fighting the best urban and void combat experts this side of the galaxy

*Back on the strike cruiser, the updates are broadcasted to all Grey Knights* "Prepare for battle. And may the God Emperor smile upon you" Are the Brother-Captain's final words before individual orders are relayed by Navy officers. The three Brother-Captains have decided to each look over each of the battlefields and intervene if necessary (like always, we are to trying to stay secretive). My squad's orders, as expected, are to immediately teleport down into the city to act as reconnaissance and to intercept Chaos forces that are within the area with complete and udder prejudice. I turn to my men. As a ritual before combat, we kneel and recite the Grey Knight's creed in unison: "I am the hammer, I am the right hand of the Emperor, the instrument of His will, the gauntlet about His fist, the tip of His spear, the edge of His sword." When we finish, we stand back up. I say in a determined, confident tone "Let the traitors know fear for we shall prevail!" They all nod. "Alright lads. Set your coordinates and stay vigilant." In a instant, there is a brief flash of light. The marines that were just standing there have vanished. *In the hive city* We tear through the Immaterium back into reality, forming a defensive circle centered on me. We seem to have landed in the under hive. Other than the lightning rats it's rather desolate. "Clear" says Nathaneal. "Clear" Callen reports. "Here too" Kruger and Adeon (the other squad members) both state. " I turn in a slow circle to make a final check. "All clear. Let's move out" We begin making our way through the under hive, remaining ever-wary of their surrounding. OOC: Yes, the same under hive
Me and squad are the underhive. All the other Grey Knights are starting to make planetfall in the battle zones described by Decisive Rain
OOC: Meh... still unsure about the GK thing I just... I like my characters... and I am going to make sure that my lieutenant makes through this war alive... otherwise... well... drama will start overtaking the thread...
OOC: It's your choice if he sees us or not. But if he does.....Well, are you familiar with the rumors of the Ordo Assassinorum?
