Volorox smiled as the Lambs began scattering it was time to unleash his wrath upon these welps. he took out his chain halberd and activated it heading into sky like a rocket into the air catching most of there attention His Vox changed from the sound of a regular marine to something that would sound more *intimidating* He roared as he came down to the ground causing rubble to fly as the group of heretics fired on him with there pathetic auto guns. As he looked to them with his chain halberd he spoked. "Pathetic Traitorous human scum You will Be sent to be judged by his warriors today for your sins And you shall know his wrath." he said as he looked up his helmet slits glowing there red glow, walking towards them his easily taking the auto guns hit as he walked threw the smoke his halberd whirred to life as he brought it down on the first heretics leg causing bone and blood to fly over him and his armor. He smiled under his helm as he watched the man scream and pain and his leg fall over in pain from the separation of his leg His friends began moving back as they began to realize regular arms weren't going to dent him. he brought up his chain halberd up and brought it up from the mans groin and letting it go up his chest cutting him opened as he screamed in pain. Volorox made sure not to go to far to rupture the mans organs causing him to scream in pain as he began to bleed out.

The marine malevolent kept walking towards his friends he raised one of his arms to two men that were about to throw a frag towards him he fired his wrist mounted flamer causing flame to shoot out of his wrist engulfing one of the men and causing the other heretic women to run from his to rejoin there group. The flaming mans screams soon gave out as his the grenade blew causing shrapnel to bang against Volorox's armor. He continued after his group of prey. he could see them running one of them raised a las gun and quickly fired it several times. It cracked at his arm causing him to feel only a slight burn at his chest. kept going no matter the burn as he quickly herd the his of a flamer He quickly launched himself into the air and maglocked his halberd to his belt then taking out his combat knife. as the flames spouted at him he aimed his bolt pistol for the heretics arm. He quickly cursed as he missed the shots and was soon met with flames engulfing pat of his armor. He roared and charged forward through the flame feeling the blistering pain he grabbed the heretics arm causing a sizzling sound from the fires at cracked his skin and ripped away his arm causing more gore to core them both. He roared and charged the man his foot crushing his legs and his combat knife going threw his chest as he pulled upwards causing his torso to be thrown forward.

he looked to the two survivors now quite angry and continued. "I Am his angel of death. I am his warrior of death that shall purge the heretic the mutant and the alien." he said as he raised his bolt pistol and firing causing the heretic chest to explode as she fell forwards into the wastes. He then looked to the man he could see the fear in his eyes Knowing he would not escape his face he quickly wen't for his frag. "You Won't get that luxurie." he said as he activated his jump pack jumping forward and grabbing the mans arm causing him to scream in pain as Volorox's hot arm burnt his skin. The marine lifted upwards tearing his arm off and cauterizing the wound with his hand and then grabbing the mans other hand he twisted until he could hear a crack of his arm and hand breaking. "You won't get the luxurie of meeting the emperor yet. We have Things to discuss first." he said as he ripped of the mans belt taking off his weapons and then began dragging him back to the village. for interrogation. "Brothers I have one of the heretics captured And we can use him for question he may be in a bit of bad shape though." he said as he lifted the man to in front of him so he could keep a better eye on him.

OOC 5 down

<Mining Station>

In exactly 6 minutes and 11 seconds, Angelous disconnected himself from the station's mainframe and pointed the team towards the doors at the other side of the chamber. "Come, you must see this for yourself."

The Techmarine led them through the doors which opened on his command without any issue, the former Blood Raven looking like he was at home here. However, as they passed the entrance and went down a long stairway, passing big machinery, they entered a chamber quite different than the other ones.

All around it, there were big cages filled with people in them. Men, women, even occasional child could be seen in the mass. The place was huge, located below the manufacturing plant, a perfect hiding place if anyone was to come and investigate it. "There are thousands of them here, the exact number is 17655 individuals spread throughout the station. The thing that runs this place likes to have everything cataloged," the Techmarine explained as he pointed towards a series of cages were people were looking more rabid than the other ones, which also made Tempestus's mind tingle with power, usual thing when confronted with Chaos taint.

"These are those who passed the indoctrination while those, more docile ones, still have to undergo it or will be used as simple slaves." Marmaroth listened to Angelous's words as his revulsion grew with each passing second. "What is this place brother?" he asked but knew he wouldn't like the answer.

"As far as I understood," the Techmarine answered flatly, "This is some sort of their processing facility, they get shipments of fresh slaves from the planet below and here they introduce them towards whatever corrupted idea they want at the moment. After it, they get transported out of the system and "enlist" in their army or cult. My Chaplain, I think we hit the jackpot here, hindering this operation will be a major blow to our enemy and it also proves that you were right concerning this system's administration for I can't really believe that nobody knew anything about this place."

It was done, Steve wade was is their hands, but the bomb problem still remained and they had to find a solution. "Brother Feron, better destroy the detonator while wade is unconcious. We should also alert the local PDF as the bombs our prisoner talked about, maye they'll find and disarm them, or they'll even confirm that there are no bombs at all and that wade is trying to bluff. Last but not least we should call for the aid of a tech adept. The proper rites known to the priests of Mars will probably be able to defuse this dangerous mix of bombs and cables alltogether." Personally Amraphel thought that Wade was bluffing,
for he perfectly fitted in with the stereotype of the heretic who threatens to do terrible things, but never has the stomach to actually carry them out. Finally he said:" All those who do not wear power armour should move away from the explosives!"

"I'll be honest - I didn't," replies Draconion candidly, "They must have been going after the same man our operatives are. Hail them via vox so I can make sure we all don't wind up crossing purposes."

<Team Alpha & Beta>

Couple of things happened simultaneously to the team. First, Feron knocked out Wade and ripped his bionic arm apart. There was no immediate explosion that engulfed both him and Amraphel, because the detonator broke in the process but since it lost contact with the main bomb site, couple of moments later all of them could hear a large blast coming from the eastern part of the Underhive. The huge pillar that made hive's superstructure lulled and swung, parts of it breaking down and the "ceiling" basically dropped onto the location where the great arena was, leveling dozen city hab blocks in the process.

What also came off was Rocky's smoke grenade which tried to hide their retreat. Suffice to say, it didn't work as intended as Arbites chimeras punched through it and pushed gangers wrecks off the road. In mere seconds, they were in front of the Team, while number of law enforces disembarked from their vehicles, various guns aimed at Team Alpha.

They were also met with a rather tall Arbites, armored in carapace armor and carrying shock maul and suppression shield, the officers behind him geared in same manner. He pointed at the unconscious Gang Lord, the newcomer's face hidden behind helmet. "I am Marshal Xander, Leader of Onpuku Adeptus Arbites force. By the authority given to me by Lord Governor and the God-Emperor Himself, I ask you to hand over that man, he is a wanted criminal and as such must be dealt with."


At the same time, convoy of PDF troops came behind and halted, their attempts at communicating with the Arbites failing. Rorke was first out, followed by Draconion and Jean. Contrary to Lord Marshal, Captain Rorke of the PDF was alarmed by what just happened. "Have you seen that explosion! Lord Xander, we must go and assist the civilians, there could be thousands of them dead and buried under all that rubble, not to mention what happened in the upper reaches...." at that moment he saw the rest of the Team, particularly widening his eyes the moment he saw both Feron and Amraphel. "Lord Draconion, what is the meaning of this? I thought you were the only Space Marines present on Hive Kanaro?!"

"Forgive the subterfuge, Captain. Inquisitional business - need-to-know only," says Draconion quietly, "As needs must, more will be revealed, as you will see."

Standing tall and pushing his way through the rear of the Arbites to the fore where Xander stands, he calls out in formal, commanding tones that ring off the surrounding structures, giving himself a subtle telepathic boost to charisma, haloing himself and the other Astartes with invisible aurae of heroism and authority, as though they had walked right out of a cathedral mural into the waking world.

"I hear and acknowledge your authority, Lord Justice Xander. However, I fear ours must take precedence at this time. I am Codicier Draconion He'tar, Salamanders Chapter, and that is our field commander Veteran Brother Feron, of the same."

Drawing his Inquisitorial rosette [OOC: I'm assuming we were all issued with one, otherwise, Draconion is just going to flash his Deathwatch pauldron] from its pouch, Draconion holds it forth for Xander to see, triggering the hololithic display to reveal their credentials.

"In the name of the God-Emperor of Mankind, we invoke the authority of His Imperial Majesty's Holy Inquisition, representing as we do the Inquisitorial detachment of Marshal Ludovic's Crusade, deriving its mandate from the Jericho Conclave. This man - Steve Wade - is a person of interest in our investigations into a multi-segmentum security risk."

Dropping his voice to a confidential volume, he speaks solely to Xander.

"Lord Justice, we understand the need for protocol to be observed here. I am certain Brother Feron can see his way to allowing you to arrest and process Wade, but he must come with us, and soon. Our mission is time-sensitive and brooks no delay. Can we help one another in this?"

Over the squad vox, he speaks privately to Feron, "Don't mean to steal your thunder, Uncle. I'm making this up as I go and I hope you can work with it."

"Brothers, i ask if youd alow me to end these pour souls suffering here and now" as he spoke tempestus ignited the primer flame on his heavy flamer "id also tecomend those without strong stomachs to leave the room"

<Feron>
"All well and good Draconion, I'm afraid I've just cost this world a great many lives but they were- necessary losses. " It was a bitter set of words in his mouth, more powerful than the coppery tang of his blood or the crunch of is own burnt lips. Steeling himself against the thought he kept a firm grip on Wade. "In event of belligerence or resistance prepare for immediate execution of primary Arbites threats and retreat. Crippling or disabling blows, try to avoid flat out killing them. If anyone else has any tricks up their sleeves might be worth letting the rest of us know in preparation. " There wasn't even a flinch toward their weapons, Shock Mauls, Shields...worthless, it was their Chimaeras that might present a head ache and they were desperately low on anti-tank weaponry. With a free hand he pulls out his own Inquisitorial Rosette brandishing it upon a length of carved ivory beads and hoist it aloft addressing the Arbites. "Indeed, further obstruction of the Emperor's Holy Ordos will result in your extermination. We will be leaving now with our prisoner, your dedication and service is noted and shall be commended upon our return to HQ. Good day. " Attempting to leave no room for argument he stores away the insignia and instead draws Skull Splitter, the warping hiss of a power field activating punctuating his turn to begin marching away, attempting to play himself up as not just an Astartes, but a well equipped and honored Veteran to further cow the Arbites obstructing them.

<Dorallius>
Dorallius kept up his weapons fire on the heretics as the two assault marines closed in, reaping their own tally amongst the weak traitorius humans, they stood no chance to the might of the team, and they hadent even expected them, this was not a fight, this was slaughter, not that he minded, the traitors dident deserve a proper death. So Dorallius kept shooting, never really getting close in due to the assault marines effectiveness, and the low number of unprepared heretics.
<the creature>
The creature dident like this place, it was wrong, everything was caged and closed, and weak frail ones was locked away, it could smell their fear, and it stowed on its anger, it hated fear and weakness in all things, witch also stowed its ravenous blood lust, it was getting agitated by all the human slaves.

- Rocky and Edd
Edd had finished with the few remaining gangers, watching as Feron dealt with Steve Wade. When the explosion happened, Edd felt a pang of nostalgia.
"Dats wot hive-cities do all da time round me." Edd said out loud. His concerns for innocents were reflected by the arrival of the Arbites and DFC forces. All had their guns on them and Edd was very perplexed by this.
'Wez didn't do anyfing wrong, why es we in trouble?' He thought.
Meanwhile, Rocky was still hold up. Luckily it appeared none had spotted him yet, his smoke screen not stopping the chimeras but adding to the confusion of the situation.
'Shit, the local Executioners and the greenhorn guardsmen. This is a turd waiting to crush the fan. Used up my blind and smoke bombs... still got a frag... decisions, decisions. So long as they don't hurt Edd we should be able to talk our way out of this... just in case.'
Rocky stealthily moved through the wreckage. As he did so, he came upon Steve Wade's strange dartgun. 'Wot in the name of the Emperor is this kind of make? I've never seen this before. Better pocket it for later.'
(+1 pistol)
Moving up to Lysander, Rocky got his attention. "Hey Mr. Detective, you speak Imperial Law. Get these guys off our back and we'll make a run for it. I don't like where all this is heading. Something doesn't feel right."
