Adeptus Sororitas vs Thousand Sons

The last tank ruptured and exploded, sending a shockwave of sound throughout the battlefield powerful enough to silence it. The guardsman crawled on his stomach, clawing his way across the gantry not to escape the enemy, but to pick up his Lasrifle. Only a few more feet and he could start shooting again, start fighting again, not in the Emperor’s name, but in the name of the people who died around him today. Good people. Good soldiers who, when the dark unknown grew glowing green eyes and gnashing teeth, took up arms against it.

Another sound reached his ears. This time it wasn’t the thundering roar of cannon fire, but the howl of Bolter rounds as they flew over his head. Howling bolter rounds. Bullets possessed of Warpfire spat from the mouth of Bolters twisted by the warp itself. The thought was enough to make any man go insane, but not he. Not today.

Fingers stretching, he grabbed the back of his rifle, spun around, and searched for a target through the smoke and the haze. The air itself seemed to shimmer, to bend, to tremble. He swallowed hard, his mind anchored to the task at hand. There would be time to grieve later, when he joined his friends wherever they had gone. Right now, if he could only…

The sun reflected on armor made of blue and gold. It emerged through the smoke like a daemon, despite that which stood before him being a Space Marine. At least, it was once, many thousands of years ago. Already the guardsman could hear the whispers of daemons at his ears, clawing at the back of his mind, trying to get in. They were perhaps worse than the sight of the monster with the Boltgun, for at least it was a physical thing that could be shot at.

Steeling himself, the guardsman leveled his rifle. Roaring, he unloaded round after round of Lasrifle energy into the Space Marine, but his weapon wouldn’t bite into the beast’s armor. What was worse, when it did find a softer spot, it wasn’t blood that spilled from the gap—but dust.

So, it was true. They aren’t really men, only suits.

The Space Marine pulled his bolter up, and the guardsman found himself staring at the mouth of a dragon with Warpfire in its throat. The reaper was here, it was now his turn to enter the greatest unknown. He shut his eyes and breathed deeply. When the Boltgun spoke, his insides tensed like they’d been dipped in ice, but he was not dead.

He opened his eyes again, and watched the Space Marine fall to his knees, then slam to the ground with a hard thud. Behind the hulk stood not a man, but a woman clad in black armor. Her hair was as white as snow, her skin was fair, but her expression was hard; she had a soldier’s eyes. In one hand she held a bolt pistol, the muzzle still smoking. In the other, a power sword crackling with light.

“Get up, soldier,” she said, “The Saint is here. You are not dying today.”
