OOC: hurray! We now are five. Ill start the game. Just a note: in the start there will only be tyranid mind slave, hourmagaunts and termagaunts, maybe a few other monsters but mainly these.

IC: They sat silently inside the rhino as it carried them longer and longer into the hive-infested city of Necropolis; they all knew that they properly wouldn’t be coming back. The longer that got into the city the more ‘’bumpy’’ the rode got. Suddenly a large tyranid claw went straight trough the ceiling, blood started spraying all over the inside the Rhino. Democ ordered all to get out of the tank. As all had left the tank he followed, threw a grenade inside and said: ‘’it’ll spare them a little pain.’’ He started flaming the hourmagaunts and tyranid warriors as they flooded towards them; grenades, shotgun shells, another flamer and lasgun aided his fire at the tyranid menace. As they where slowly forced down into a broken bunker they shut the door and started discussing how they should make it to the core of the city.

Jenkins rocked nervously in the corner of the bunker while the others talked. When the Tyranids attacked the rhino a man no more than 6 inches from jenkins was cut in 2 by a massive claw. After that everything was a blur. Humans and tyranids swirled together in a brutal melee as the guardsmen fought their way to the bunker which they now occupied.
"we're screwed," he thought, "screwed...."

Spike was busy piling things up against the door while the others talked.Leaning his shotgun up against the wall,he set to work piling every heavy object he could fin up against the door,untill soon there was a rather sizeable mass of junk keeping the monsters outside the door from opening it.Standing back to survey his work,he nods quietly to himself,grabbing his shotgun from against the wall and moving over to join the others.He sat down on an empty crate,right next to where Jenkins was rocking,and glared over at the man. "Get ahold of yourself" He said it with a mild level of disgust,and shook his head slightly as he turned to look at the others, looking to the Commisare in paticular. "So boss..any idea where we are?"

Janssen inhaled deeply as he could feel the 'slaught starting to kick in. The sounds of scratching on the heavy adamantium door seemed so far away now. "Dam bugs got the jump on us this time, I don't like being surprised." Janssen snickered as he checked the promethium guage on his flamer.

The others looked at Janssen for a moment and commisar Democ stared dissaproavingly at his inhaler, but they seemed more preoccupied with getting a plan formulated.

Democ looked at his men, he then said: do not falter, for we have the strength of the emperor! He looked a little at his men, he knew that no matter what pep talk he would make it wouldn’t take there minds of the fact that they where horribly doomed to die. Democ thought for a while then said: if we could make it underground we might have a chance to get closer to our goal. He then looked around the room and found what he was looking for, an entrance to the sewer. He then said: every body grab your flash lights, were going down. He then holstered his combi bolter and with a little trouble he crawled down the small ladder with his power fist.

picking up a dead hormaguant by the throat stabby sliced off the head and tossed it to the others "not taking trophies". Stabby begins to take trophies.after relising the disgust on the fces of his conrads stabby gets out his flashlight and follows the others

Janssen climbed down the sewage hatch after the commissar. His ears pricked at the slightest sounds as he looked down the dark passage way. "Sir, do you want me to watch the rear incase some of those spooks are down here?" he asked the commisar as he turned on the ignighter for his flamer and the thin sliver of white flame pierced the darkness of the passage way...
 
#13 ·
Democ turned to face Janssen, and replied. Yea, you might want to do that, we don’t know what’s down here, he pointed down at some hourmagaunts and rippers swimming in the water, he then fired his bolter at them and said, spare your flamer ammo, the water would protect there foul bodies! A hourmagaunt lunged at Democ, he grabbed it with his power fist and crushed its head and then tossed it back into the water. And yelled after the others: are you coming or can’t you get trough the hatch for bare fat?! He turned to look for any remaining tyranids; he then saw something far more horrible, humans infested with brain parasites. He said quickly to Janssen; hurry! Purge them with your flame thrower!
 
#14 ·
Janssen turned on his heel and brought his flamer level to the oncoming abominations and turned 25 feet of the corridor into a roaring inferno as he squeezed the trigger. The promethium leapt forth in a stream of liquid fire, the hourmagaunts and former humans howled and screeched as they vainly tried to put out the promethium fuelled flames that enshrouded their bodies, Janssen smiled. "Burn you frackers, burn!" he cackled as the screams and flames only added to his 'slaught altered perception....

then he released the trigger... smoke filled the passage way as he crushed under his boot the head of some charred twitching body which could have once been human...

"Boss, I dont think those cocroaches like fire."

Democ looked at Janssen for a second and smiled: good job soldier. He walked over the burned carcasses of the former tyranids and humans and said. Funny, suddenly the floor aren’t all that slippery any more he smiled as he stepped on the burned rock. He then took out his map of the city, according to this we must go north for a few hundred meters then turn at a crossing to the left.

Jenkins waited for everyone to go down the ladder. He kept a close eye on the door, and he reloaded his Grenade launcher with a round of frags. As he climbed down he could hear the screams of humans down the tunnel. He quickly dropped and leveled his gun to see Janssen finish flaming the infected people.

He lowered his gun and took point around a corner to watch for more bugs that might be drawn to the noise, he didn't want anymore 'suprises'.
 
#17 ·
Democ walked down the sewer ways, keeping a close eye on all corners, after about a few hundred meters he said: Halt! We turn to the left here! He commanded and went in first. There was a crash, something large smashed trough the wall behind Democ, there was a howl and gunfire, then flames. Democ came out of the mist and held a tyranid warriors head in his power fists hand. He then said: stay at full alert men. And with those words he continued down the ‘’endless’’ sewers. Stomping on a few rippers on the way.

Spike followed behind the others,ever scanning the halls and dark croners they passed by for any signs of the wretched bugs. Through the swewers they trudged,fighting off monsters and brainless humans.Spike made a point to kill as many of the nasty buggers as he could, picking up any teete or shiney bits his kills yeilded. Stabby wasn't the only one interested in trophies.Spike was following close behind the commisare when the wall exploded,and was knocked off his feet by the blast.He scrammbled to his feet quickly,and was preparing to save the boss from whatever it was that had attacked when he noticed Democ stepping forward with the 'nid remains in hi hand.Shrugging Spike checked his weapon and continued follwoing the others,popping of shots into anythin that even looked like a Tyranid. "How much farther you think it is?"
 
#19 ·
Jenkins stayed back with spike to watch the rear of the group. He had managed to calm himself down after the initial attack, tho he was still on edge. His Grenade Launcher was kept level at all times as he did a sweep of the rear, and he swore he could see things moving in the edges of the shadows.

"No" he thought "I'm just being paranoid...those couldn't possibley be..."

A small group of 'gaunts leapt out from the darknes. Jenkins fired and the frag shell ripped thru 3 of them, the other 2 were quickly dispatched by the lasgun fire that came soon after.

"The sewers were abslutely infested, the surface must ba hell"

Janssen checked the promethium guage on his flamer again, he had used almost half his fuel already. After the last surge of hormaguants it suddenly became really quiet. He turned up the 'slaught valve on his rebreather and hooked his flamer against his promethium tank. "I dont like it, they dont just stop like that." he spoke with the characterized hiss of his rebreather. Janssen drew out his auspex and turned it on high frequency. The slow pings of the auspex started to speed up, but only for a second. "There is something below us."
 
#21 ·
Spike kept up with the others,keeping close to them. He heard Jenkins and Jansenn talking and couldn't help but agree with them.He didn't say anything though,just nodded quietly to himself.Spike has fought the 'nids before,and knew what to expect,so he wasn't quite a worried as the others.But he remembered waht it was like fighting them for the first time,and could sorta understand thier apprehension.He looked over ath to front of the line,and saw the Commisares hat bobbing above the heads of the others.He was just starting to wonder if they where lost when the 'gaunts attacked.After dispatching them he heard Jansen say something about below,and tried his best to see through the grating he was standing on into the darkness below " To the eye with what's below,we're heading up to the surface. Let them rot down here." He mad a point to gather as much of the gunk in the back of his throat as he could before removing his rebreather long enough spitting it down into the darkness.He restrapped his mask and moved on.Hopefully his phlem landed on a tryanid and just completely ruined it's day.

"I'm fine with that, just don't blame me if a spook starts killing us off one by one." he put away his auspex and continued after the commisar as he redrew his flamer. As the small column of guardsmen continued around the corner for about twenty meters and into a large open room with three other exits, the room was lit from the grate leading to the surface above. As they preceded into the center of the room Janssen to turned to the boss and asked, "Now where to?" Before the commissar could answer a mixed volley of lasgun fire and hissing globs shot out of the the other tunnels. One glob caught Janssen on his left leg, the place where it impacted hissed and brought him to his knees. As he drew his combat knife, that he had earlier "aquired" from a catachan, and looked down he saw several small insects attempting to burrow into the exposed flesh. As gunfire erupted from all sides with his knife in one hand he tried to cut out the creatures burrowing into his leg, and with the other he turned the intensity of the 'slaught entering his rebreather to full and his body went numb.

As the mutants and xenos attacked Jenkins ran for cover, shooting as he ran.
Flame and shrapnel tore the vile monsters limb from limb. He ducked behind a large pipe that ran from the floor into the wall, and began to reload his grenade launcher with another round of frags.

Before he could finish a mutant clawed over the pipe, only to be met by his bayonette.

"they just keep coming!"

he finished loading and shot the group closest to him, leaving a small crater in the rockcrete floor.

Democ did not know the meaning of the word ’’fear’’ at least not in battle. He fired his flamer and then his bolter at incoming zombies and tyranids. He grabbed one his grenades and tossed it in, a Hourmagaunt lunged at. Pushing him backwards into the water. He quickly killed it and tried to get up. But something like a tentacle had caught his leg. He yelled ‘’Behind us!’’ as a large lictor rose from the water. He shot at it with his bolter, but it still held him in its tentacle. Drawing him closer to the gaping maw.

Janssen dragged himself to his feet as the whirling melee proceeded around him. He could hear nothing now except for the heavy hissing of his rebreather and the thumping of his heart. Bringing the his flamer to bear he realesed a large gout of flame on several termaguants and swinged the barrel so that several other 'nids were caught in the blaze. Janssen released the trigger and drove his combat knife through the back a mind slave's skull, the creature fell in a mangled heap. As he turned to face another foe, a hormagaunt leaped and drove it's talon deep into Janssen's shoulder. Trying to defend himself he pushed his blade through the soft tissue of the hormaguants neck and black ichor spilled out as the monster gnashed its teeth in an attempt to bite the guardsman...

Scythe-like talons reared and its toothy maw agape the lictor readied itself to strike down the commissar, but as it started to strike a shotgun blast ripped across the left side of the creatures face tearing its jaw off. Ichor and blood ran across the commissar's face as he brought himself up from the ground, and although the lictor had taken a mighty blow it still wasn't out of the fight. Democ understood why the 'nids kept honing in on the guardsmen's position, the damned lictor had found them and was letting out pheromones so that more 'nids would come...
 
#26 ·
Democ struggled and as the lictor eventually swallowed him he fought it from the inside, his boots where melting from the acid in its belly, Democ Punched trough the slimy crust of its belly, it screamed as he crawled out from it as it was still alive. Democ was half out when he put his flamer in its wound, jumped out and fired his flamer into the lictor, flames standing out of its mouth and wounds as it was burned away from the inside. He landed on the ground this time, he saw Janssen being attacked and went to help, grabbing the tyranid and tossing it away with his power fist. He returned fire at the termagaunts and yelled: ‘’take cover!’’ as he tossed another grenade into the masses of tyranids.
