Shaking his head to clear the ringing from the psychic suckerpunch, Draconion clambers to his feet. Thoroughly incensed, he gathers his own powers to strike back. Actinic witchfire wreathes his psychic hood, turning to beautiful liquid orange flame as the raw warp energy is shaped and focused by his psyche. A saurian roar of primal fury reverberates off the surrounding buildings, causing the traitors to stagger in their paces, convulsed with pain as the psychic blast wave assaults their soft tissues and nervous systems. The ones immediately around Draconion actually collapse to the ground, bloody froth pouring from noses, eyes and mouths as the blast liquifies their brains and ruptures their blood vessels. Ripping his force sword from its scabbard, Draconion weighs into the fight, laying about himself with broad sweeps of the curved blade as he attempts to carve a path to Xander, assaulting into the enemy attack to change the momentum of battle and take pressure off the team.
OOC question if we have armor signals that tell the status of team mates will the blackshield go out when he goes unconscious or dies and tell us? Also If the alpha legionarie gets the black shields helmet can they patch into our Vox network? The marine had only a sadistic laugh come out of his helmet as the solider spoke to him. "I have only one question for you my friends may have more and more may come in time from me but one should do right now. How long?" he said as he looked at him as he rose him into his air and had his power armor hand carefully touch his face his thumb slowly going over his cheek then forcing its way into his mouth he grabbed onto something and with retracted his hand holding one of the mans teeth causing him to yell out. "How long until you break or repent for your sins?" he said as he held the man high his pain echoing through the air as he yelled. "Brothers do we you have any questions for the heretic I may be able to get him break But it may require some time and a nice place to do so away from prying eyes." he said through his vox helmet.
Amraphel unsheated his sword and in turn charged the 5 enforcers charging him. With his robes on fire he looked like hate and death made manifest and he yelled towards his attackers:"Your striving is insignificant, let your death be the same!" He shot two times with his plasma pistol and each shot went right through the vision slit of a power shield, resulting in the deaths of two of his attackers. Then he clashed in melee; he quickly kicked aside a shield and slew the now defenseless arbite. Amraphel didn't even waste that much effort on the 4th attacker and just stabbed into the mans face, bypassing the shield. The 5th one would however suffer a special 'treatment'; Amraphel ripped away the mans maul and shield and than grabbed him. He held him close to his own burning robes. Amraphel took a splitsecond to ravel in the irony and only said:"Burn Fool!" A second later he dropped the mans burned body on the ground. However now was the time to start their retreat and Amraphel switched to the teams voc channel and spoke:"What is the plan brotherso we keep engaging the traitor arbites or do we escape and if we try to escape, which route do we take?"
<Dorallius> "Malavolent, get some answers out of that man, no matter the method" Dorallius said, before he then aproached one of the natives, hoping that these people where like the hunters, and not easily scared by the size of a spacemarine, "I am Dorallius of the Excoriators, who can inform me of what was going on?" he said, adressing the group. <The creature> As the mad charge began against the praetorians, the creature was quickly close to them, though he suffered more this time that during the last battle, especially near the end of the charge, as a thick wall of flames blasted it, burning fur and blackening skin, the creature howled in pain and furius anger, as it launched itself through the fire, right at the praetorian, its massive claws bored into the machine man, ripping out blood and oil as the creatures giant maw then bit the head off, the armored parts not even bothering its jaw strength. just after, it senced that it was about to be struck, and lebt backwards to see the powerfist strike just miss it, and before the praetorian had time to recalculate, it had joined its headless kind.
Jean tried to lay low for a moment, assessing the situation as it played out. It seemed Draconion was pushing directly for their leader. She had no doubt he would need aid in that endeavor lest he may not return alive. So she decided to aid him with her bolter from range, prioritizing any targets she deemed to have an advantage on the Librarian.
<Team Alpha & Beta> The Astartes retaliated with such fury that it made the remaining PDF force fight to the last men with increased zeal when standing with such heroes of the Imperium. The men knew they were on a mission to find traitors and looked at the Arbites with those judging eyes of people who were intent on avenging their fallen Captain. As Feron knelt behind cover and went through Wade's stuff, he managed to find couple of things. The Gang Lord was indeed strapped with explosives, quite a lot of it actually which made the Salamander certain if the bomb would go off, there is no way any of them would survive the blast. Secondly, he also found two more bolt pistols hidden beneath the robes as well as a short monomolecular blade in his sleeve. But what was perhaps the biggest find were two plasma grenades, these rare weapons not often seen in possessions of lowly hivers. That and Inquisitorial rosette that hug around man's neck, which was the proof Feron needed that this was indeed the man they were looking for. Lysander, Fenix, Six and Rocky stood their ground and fired on the traitor Arbites while Edd was engaged in melee combat, supporting the PDF soldiers that despite that, still died in droves - Amraphel's call for retreat went unanswered. What strafed him was heavy bolter fire from two chimeras that were really intent on killing him. Couple of bolts went through his armor, two went in his leg and one in his bionic arm. It would hinder his movement somewhat as he was assaulted with another batch of Arbites, three of them, but these were smarter than the first five, instead of charging him they threw frag grenades at him, wanting to soften him up before moving in for execution. Thankfully, he was saved further heavy bolter fire as Fenix's precise shots made short work of those turrets. Jean and Draconion worked in pair to get to the Marshal himself. Couple of turrets turned to face the charging Librarian however Jean was quick to kill the gunners with precise shots from her bolter. Draconion on the other hand, waded through the combat and towards where Xander was, the Marshal being hunkered besides one of his chimeras. He saw the Librarian and opened fire with his bolt pistol, the bolts ringing against Marine's armor that made him sway only just a little bit, which a group of Arbites used to counter-charge him and attack with their maces. What also happened is that the female psyker barely recovered from Salamander's psychic assault. In her mind, this meant only one thing. She had to harness all of her power, if she was to stand against this Space Marine. Pulling strength from the deepest reserves of her soul and beyond, the woman began floating in mid-air, her hands crackling with potent power. Warp-lighting flashed and hit the ground all around Draconion murdering half of those soldiers that tried to stand in Librarian's way, but also grazing him somewhat, slowing his progress. But then it went out of control and hit two of Arbites chimeras and three of those PDF vehicles, blowing everything apart. This also took out Jean's cover as the vehicle exploded next to her, however she managed to duck in time and her power armor held on. (OOC Shady, you can kill psyker with your next post. Draconion, you can engage Xander if you wish). OOC Friendly force: 7 PDF soldiers; Enemy Force: 10 melee arbites, 10 ranged arbites, 3 chimeras with multi-lasers and 1 heavy bolter turrets operational, Marshal Xander (Boss), Female psyker (Boss). Same deal like before - you can kill some of them, just keep it logical. <Team Gamma> "I can," said one burly man in leather clothing. "These are the invaders, scouring the plains for anything alive. They attacked most of the nearby villages and took the people away to their big stronghold. They also attacked us two times and two times we defended ourselves, but when the third attack came we couldn't do much but surrender. We lost many good men so it was either that or get eaten by mutants." OOC yeah, you can see that Blackshield's rune went yellow and then completely went off, as if he was dead or his armor was removed from him. Also, the enemy can quite easily patch into your network, but I would like if your characters remain oblivious to this sneaky attack, since it would be major meta-gaming move The man screamed as his tooth was pulled out, his defiant shouts replaced with crying. Obviously, he wasn't very keen on going through all that torture, his pain tolerance quite lower than Volorox initially suspected. It was at the same time that they saw on their hud visors that Blackshield's rune went from yellow to grey, skipping amber. It was either suit malfunction or Icelos removed it for some reason known only to him...
"Alright Human For you first Question Where is your base? second how many of you are there at your base? Why are you rounding up these People. And lastly How many sins have you committed Wasn't the emporer and are you willing to repent?" he asked his voice sound Malevolent as he asked. "For every minute you don't answer a question I will be begin breaking your Toe nails off one by one, Then I will do your Finger nails, then your eye brows and then I begin Cutting." he said with a tone of sadism in his voice as he held the man.
"Please don't hurt me! I...I...We are rounding up because our masters told us so...they are being shipped off-world..Base is..I have a map," he pointed at a paper in his trousers where Volorox could see the surroundings of the Hive Kanaro and its nearby wasteland, the position of enemy base located somewhere Northwest of their current position. "There are....many of us...an entire army...please...don't hurt me..."
"Good Now for your last Question Do you wan't to Repent For your sins Against the emperor?" he asked a smile had grown behind his helmet as he asked this still holding the man as his helmet stared at him in the eyes.
