Nergal grunted as Tonbogiri was ripped from his arm. I....what to do....I must not lose....XiaerieneHe spotted the head half of his spear out of the corner of his eyes I....I must act! I cannot lose! Without thinking twice, he grabbed the spear and thrust it forward, closing his eyes. After about ten seconds, he looked up. Tonbogiri has stabbed into the wall next to him, and his spear had pierced through Celsus's chest. "I...I won?"

Celsus grinned weakly "Nicesave, boy. But I am a man of my honor, and you, you are a true warrior. And as you know, two honorable warriors who fight to the death, that is the most beautiful sight. And now, *cough* it looks as if I have been the one who was the fool. I am defeated.....take this weapon, this Dragonfly Cutter blade, *cough* as your trophy, as proof you have defeated this old warrior....*cough*" He spat up blood, as he sunk to the ground.
Xiaeriene could not hold herself any longer. She rushed into the room to see Nergal finihs off Celsus. "Nergal!" She ran to him, and embraced him. "You fool!" She slapped him, then smiled "I knew you would win, but still..." She helped him up, picking up Tonbogiri and handing it to him "We have to go now, the girls and I went at it and they went on ahead. We need to catch up before it is too late. " She healed his shoulder with a healing spell, then focused on finding the girls. At first it was shrouded and hazy, as they had cloaked, but she focused harder, until she broke through, and instantly, she teleported them. She looked to Shlag, and gave a thumbs up "See, I told you not to worry, I knew he wouldn't lose." Her expression changed to serious "Still, I thank you for your wisdom and quick decision. I was not sure what you were going to do, but I am glad I trusted you to go on ahead without us. Still, I cannot say how the rest of this mission will turn out. The grandmaster is dead, but I don't know what else the Black Star Nation has in store for this world. What is the current status of everythign else, as far as you know?"
Hallas stood up "You are right, Uncle, but I must not concern myself with such things. My only concern now, is to be of the best use to you as I can be, to see this through."

"Just shut up, get over here, and keep your head down." Shlag pressed a hidden button on her armor's grieves and a compartment opened revieling what looked like a railroad spike. She took it out of the compartment, as the compartment closed, she pressed the top of the spike down. The LTF(Lander Target Flare) began to blink and transmit the coordinates to the fleet above.
Within seconds the battle alarms in the ships sounded. The Marines, who were on combat standby, were in their designated drop pods within' moments. The pods released and their thrusters began to burn pushing them toward the planet. The landing grid opened in all of the marine's head sets. The Pod's IEFDMs(Instant Energy Field De-stabilizer Mechanism) turned on to pierce through any unwanted shielding that would prevent them from landing in the great, walled city. As they entered the planets atmosphere each was set ablaze by the friction. To those below the it would appear as though the sky had been set on fire. Within the seconds they would slow and come to a landing.

Peilei found the four of them by searching out Nergal's aura, and as if she had almost just appeared, she had made her way to them "Things are getting shifty now. It seems that Minerva has taken the remaining of those who were Pro-Celsus, and they have taken up in the Megaplex. have, however, managed to get the palace in order. As I suspected, most of the Maiden Battleguards weren't too keen on his ways, so it was easy getting them to our side." She gazed at the sky "I guess this ensures our liberation of that tyrant and his followers, how many of us have longed for this day" She turned as a figure emertged from the shadows "Master Puck, I take it you were successful?"Puck nodded "Though it is worse than we had originally expected. Minerva has gone berserk, and those with her are prepared to annihilate the entire city. My superiors of the Nation will not be pleased if I allow that to happen. Satsujin has her hands full keeping the areas of the Trans Gate clear." He turned and shook his head at Xiaeriene's expression "Yes, I know, you want to know why the Nation is assisting this war? Well, I cannot say what Lady Gamaru hopes to achieve, but, she has instructed us to assist in ending this war, so that this world can be restored. For the sake of research, from what I have been told. Anyway, the Trans Gate is in the southeastern subsector of the eighteenth floor, you can't miss it, the door has the crest of Daniele inscribed upon it. I must report to my superiors, please, do not fail your mission" He sunk back into the shadows
"What the hell was that all about? Oh well" She turned to Shlag "I propose a plan, and I'd like your input on it. We need to utilize the Trans Gate, but, I cannot say what will occur. I think it would be a bit smarter for us to split up, that way, if the Trans Gate has unexpected results, the other two can carry on until things are set in motion. Shlag, I would like you to accompany me to the Trans Gate, Nergal, I want you to go with Alicia, and assist her to the best of your abilities. Are you guys in?"
Peilei turned as two Maiden Battleguards approacjhed her "Maam, we have secured the entrance, but I am afraid we are outmatched on firepower from within. Your orders, Maam?" "Retreat for now, there is nothing further we can do, and we would only get in the way. Have every Battleguard return to the palace, and await further instructions on standby" She turned to the others "Miss Shlag, I am going to be assisting you from here on. As the current temporary acting Grandmistress, I will do whatever I can to ensure the success of this mission"

The flames peeled away as the pods slowed. The still torn down parts of buildings as the came to a halt on the ground. The landing ramps dropped and squads of Marines and Exterminator Small Scale Battle Mechs(mechanized infantry) descended down the ramps to secure the area of LZ. The drop pods exploded to make room for reinforcements and the armor lifts. A second and a third volley of marines and ESSBMs arrived. Commands were being shouted and controlled chaos filled the LZ. In total there were 10,000 infantry and mechanized infantry on the ground
They had a three prong attack plan. One brigade would strike the coaxial cannon and neutralize the threat so the Imperial Guard could be dropped in.
Their ships had to descend into the atmosphere to drop in their forces because of their use of drop ships and armored drop ships which were not rated for atmospheric descent.
The second attack was to secure the megaplex. It consisted of two mechanized battalions and two infantry battalions.
The third was to help secure the capital. On battalion of infantry would help secure it in case of an enemy counter offensive.
"OK, I suppose that would work. However due to the plan of attack, chances are, we wont being going in alone."

Nergal nodded "Either way, you two better come back alive." He turned to Alicia "I guess you and I will stick around here and assist with securing the capital and setting up a command center. What...do you think?"

Xiaeriene nodded as she summoned Icebolt "Alright, Shlag, let's get going, we need to get this done as quickly and efficiently as possible. I don't get it myself, but I won't refuse assistance when it is freely given, as that would be rude" She turned to Nergal "You as well, you two stay alive, we will take care of that crazy butch b***h"

Xiaeriene nodded, and they made their way to the Megaplex. The fighting was intense; though outmatched, the magical abilities of those standing with Minerva was none to be trifled with, and currently, the new backup was slowly pushing it's way in. She used the crossfire to their advantage, and quickly slipped through into the area. They reached the main elevator no problem. It was large, big enough for a warmech to fit inside, and no sooner had they entered than at least four or five dozen heavily equipped battle mages surrounded them. The elevator began to ascend. "Hey Shlag, you cover the exit side" She held her staff steady as she focused "ICEBOLT FASHION SHOW!" She split into six, with only one of her being the real deal. Most enemy laughed, distracted by her technique, and she used that to her advantage, sending three copies directly into the large swarm of soldiers "Learn" The large copy knocked down at least a dozen soldiers "to stay" the small child-like copy swung Icebolt, which extended, knocking another dozen or so into the pile "FOCUSED!" She recalled the copes, and leaped up, standing on her weapon "I call upon the gods of ice, smite down these idiots!" Immediately, the pile of soldiers was swallowed by a large beastly figure made of ice, and it rose up, and slammed back into the floor, shattering . The soldiers were all now a bloody mess mixed with the ice fangs. She turned to Shlag, who seemed to have made quick work of the rest of the enemy"Wow, you must have killing off the enemy down to an art."

Without saying a word Shlag made a slow and menacing progression toward the enemy, dodging and blocking spell and round alike. The first enemy she reached she carved in two with her chain sword. The chain sword spewed organ, bone, flesh, and blood all over. Her eyes locked onto a new target from within her helmet. She grabbed the battle mage by the head and crushed it. Without missing a beat she dropped the body and had her chain sword buried in the head of another foe. Blood mixed with brain matter and skull particles splattered all over her armor. Just as one of the battle mages was about to finish a chanting her spell, Shlag quickly drew her side arm with her free left hand and fired three rounds, one for the head, one for the heart and the other from the groin. After a fraction of a second the mage exploded from all three entrance wounds. She brought the bolter pistol around in front of her in a mechanical fashion each enemy had a round buried in their heads as the pistol passed them. She tapped a button and the empty magazine fell to the ground. With a swift motion she swung it back near it's holster and jammed another magazine into the weapon.
The enemies Shlag had set about slaying been killed before Xiaeriene had finished. The entirety of the exit was a gory mess. She waited for Xiaeriene to finish. "I've been fighting a war for the past 150 years. If I didn't have it down to an art I would have been killed long ago." Shlag replied.

Xiaeriene smiled "Yes, and one day you will die in valorous glory, as a tall long-haired slob of a man rips a**, and the green cloud that emerges liquifies your body!" She laughed, then shook her head "Let's get this done with, I have this really bad feeling, something evil looming amongs this very world's existence. I don't know, but I have never felt such a powerful evil presence before" She exited the elevator, entering a large empty gallery area. The place was completely filled with corpses, and Satsujin caught her gaze. She shot the woman a suspicious glance "Been a while, I can't say I expected to ever be teamed up with you. But, your fighting skills are still above mine, so the alliance is welcome, albeit temporary. What is the enemy status currently for this floor?"

"What in the world are you talking about?" Shlag questioned before arriving in the gallery.
"They're all dead." Satsujin answered. Her voice held a cold, matter-of-fact tone, with a hint of hidden satisfaction. "You look good that way, marine. Painted in the fluids of your foes." She tilted her head to the right as she looked Shlag up from the corner of her eye. "It would be better if you were among the dead. Maybe I should ignore my secondary mission directives and kill you both? The only reason I teamed up with these Black Star fools was because their goal was close to mine."

Xiaeriene looked to Shlag quickly, then turned to Satsujin "Sounds like fun, but I am afraid that we have no time for that. You do what you will, go have fun with Alicia and Nergal then" She was instantly next to Shlag, and focusing on the point of Minerva's aura, she teleported them. They were in a medium-sized room with what appeared to be a large black door sitting in the middle. Minerva turned suddenly at their arrival, but was silenced as she was frozen in ice "We don't have time to deal with these douchebags." She held Icebolt, and approached the door, suddenly it opened up "Let's go" She took Shlag by the hand and stepped through the door. Suddenly, they were in the room, but it somehow looked different. It was less rusty, and looked brand-new. She turned suddenly to find the door to be shut once again.
The large double doors opened up as Daniele walked in surrounded by heavily armed guards "I see that my prediction was correct. Take these two into custody, and have them brought to the Gardens. I will be waiting" She turned and headed down the corridor, as a small familiar creature approached them "I am Nuba, Guardian Homuculus of God-Empress Daniele. You are to follow me. But first, what are your names?"

Within Shlag's visor an image opened of Daniele. "PMO((1)) spotted." A small vent opened in the back of her leg armor. The room was flooded by invisible nanobots. Billions entered the guards and quickly dismantled them from the inside out. "A space marine isn't taken into custody, especially by the enemy." The vent closed. "I am Shlag Grosvenor Veteran Sergeant((2)) of the Blue Nymphs Squad in the Special Forces Division of the 5th Fleet of the Imperial Vindicator Chapter of the Imperial Space Marines. You will now take us to his Excellency's kin."
((1. PMO = Primary Mission Objective 2. All commanding officers below the a Divisions Force Commander is a called a Sergeant, even if their rank is equivalent to a general. Here:'s the ranks, what the possion basically is and it's equivalent in our military.
God Emperor -- Commander and Chief Primarch - One of the Emperor's son's -- 5 Star General Chaplain - Fleet's Commander - 1 Star General + Force Commander - Division Commander - Lieutenant + Veteran Sergeant - Squad Commander - Warrant Officer + Battle Kin - Normal Space Marines - Tech Sergeant + Neophyte - Sergeant + Initiate - Private Trainee - MBT trainee))
