Blood and Souls

Shortly after Dx had announced to his Night Children the Cursed Nightmare's retreat into Night Lord safety Guardsmen poured from the defences the Guardsmen had set. Bunkers had what seemed an endless supply of Guardsmen pouring from them.

The Night Children enjoyed this at first with all the more to shoot, kill and more to feast upon but more were still charging forth from their bunkers. Even the sights of their fellow Guardsmen being torn apart from bolt rounds, seeing flesh torn from their comrades bodies and all other sights only a Slaaneshi worshipper could perform upon another being without losing their sanity.

This didn't concern Dx as he had already raged across the battlefields. Leaving absolutely nothing but dead and maddened Guardsmen who were now rambling idiots who would have been executed by firing squad if they were ever found. Some did show potential to the Chaos Gods and would become possessed after their minds were opened up to the will of the great Gods.

The Guardsmen who were closer to the Guardsmen's Command Centre were much braver than those who previously fought the Night Children. These Guardsmen were fanatical about their duty to defend the God Emperor's Imperium against heretics and Xenos or anyone or anything else that would seek to destroy all of the God Emperor's work to make Mankind great.

While moving on his bike Dx had hit a pile of bodies which made him flip his bike. Dx managed to jump off and land safely but the bike was totalled. The bike was salvageable but unusable until the Dark Mechanicum could fix the bike up.

This didn't stop Dx though. He contined on foot and made great haste tot the Command Centre but the Guardsmen who were defending this area must have been lied to. Possibly something like the Chaos Marines have weak spots on their armour. Of course the armour did have its weak spots but they were not able to be broken open by Lasrifles or bayonets. Several times Dx had a Guardsmen charge into him or attempt to stab him with his rifle attached bayonet. The look of fear on their face gave Dx a grim smile. Knowing that they had just realised they had been deceived by the ones they had trusted most and now were going to pay with their lives for the deception.

Dx laughed out loud at the thought of these fooled Guardsmen thinking that the Emperor was their saviour and the one to raise up Humanity. Lies all of it. Never has the "God Emperor" saved anyone. They did it with their own mind and body. When you also embrace Chaos you gain the powers which increase you to untold powers that no man could describe. Where as the Emperor rewards you with nothing. Dead men don't give gifts. He is no God. He was a man and he died so long ago just as all men do.

The thoughts flew from Dx's mind after he had sped up his approach to the Guardsmen Command Centre where the cowardly Governor was likely to be hiding.

While running towards the Command Centre Dx spotted something he hoped not to see anywhere until the battle had been won. It was a Leman Russ tank. Defending the main access way into the Command Centre.

Dx still had some Melta Bombs strapped to his armour which he could use to take out the Leman Russ but with no way to get close it would be a death sentence to walk out upon the battlefield while the Leman Russ could see him.

Dx's armour would be blown apart from a single shell if the Leman Russ' cannon hit him. Dx had seen it so many times before when a Black Soul, Night Lord or Night Child had been blown limb from limb from a Leman Russ right before Dx's eyes.

Dx need a distraction to attempt to get close enough to the Leman Russ to take it out. Even before Dx could ask for reinforcements he received what he had looked for. It was unintended support from the Guardsmen.

There were several Basilisks deployed in Artillery locations far behind enemy lines which had just opened fire to drive the Night Children away from the Command Centre.

Dx used this to the best of his ability. It didn't make the battlefield safer it actually made the battlefield more dangerous. If Space Marines get destroyed by the rain that falls from a Basilisk then Guardsmen were now in even more trouble.

When the Basilisks had begun pounding the group around Dx the large flashes blinded anyone who was looking at them. This caused the Leman Russ to not look upon the battlefield for a short amount of time. All which Dx used to his advantage when moving closer and closer to the Leman Russ.

Although these shells were not ordinary shells. They were some of the most costly and time consuming shells to make. They were ones made all the way from the great forge world Mars. These were Mars Pattern Shells made for maximum effect. Even though these would be almost irreplacable to these Guardsmen it would be worth it to just stop the Chaos invasion here and now. If not they would kill some of the Chaos Space Marines and make time for the Space Marines to make a successful landing where they would crush the Night Children.

These shells made it a little bit more difficult but not enough to stop someone who had been blessed by Slaanesh with armour and weapons possessed. Dx took some shrapnel that sliced open part of his helmet that seemed to recoil on its own from the shock of the unprepared hit.

This drove Dx to move faster though. Weaving and dodging through the craters, wreckages and debris to make his way to the Leman Russ without being spotted. It was also the time when darkness fell upon the planet. All this played into Dx's hands. The Night Children weren't as easily concealed as their Night Lord brethren but were still fading in and out of the darkness that now surrounded them. Soon Dx was close enough to the Leman Russ and he climbed up the onto the Leman Russ and ripped open the hatch. Unloading some Bolt Pistol rounds in the crew and then throwing a Melta Bomb into the Leman Russ.

Dx jumped off the tank and ran to cover and within seconds the tank erupted in an explosion with the area being enlightened with the burning husk of the once feared Leman Russ. There were some nearby Guardsmen who only saw Dx when the flash from the exploding Leman Russ had revealed him. They were quickly put down when they began firing at him. Dx's powersword flayed their skin from their bodies within a single swing.

When this happened the Night Children saw a way forward. Most charged or rode to this position as some still had their bikes intact through this battle. Once there were enough Night Children Dx ordered them to break open the Command Centre. The last of the Melta Bombs were placed on the sealed entryway. The door blew apart when the explosion happened. Within moments after the explosion Night Children had already stormed in.

They had their orders. Hunt and kill all of the Guardsmen of high rank within this Command Centre. Without them the planet would fall much faster as it has taken much longer than originally thought.

Dx had still given explicit orders to the Night Children that they would not kill or take the Governor as that was Dx's rightful prize of battle. Dx wanted to make an example of the coward and what Chaos does to the weak and its foes. Dx would hang the Governor's corpse with life still clinging to it as he would be wishing for death upon a statue of the False Emperor or one of his False Angels to show what the False Emperor gives to the fools that cling to him while expressing the true power of Chaos.

Dx knew the Guardsmen would still fight on without their commanders but this would reduce the efficiency of the Guardsmen for a time but they would recover from this and then with Space Marine support they could and would destroy the Night Children.

Dx was at the mercy of the Night Lords and until they or any of the other God worshippers arrived Dx and his Night Children must fight every battle as if it was their last.

As the Night Children's first breach seemed successful there was bright flash follow in quick succession from another and another. Dx realised these were Hellguns. Weapons of the Stormtroopers. They fired faster and put more burn marks upon their armour but they died like the rest of their Guardsmen.

"These are the planets skilled warriors!" Laughed a Night Child as he ripped a Stormtrooper open with a Combat Blade and tasted the Stormtroopers still warm blood.
"They will be more. Much more of them. Now go and find their commanders and do what you will to them." Shouted Dx to his fellow Night Children.

The Night Children ran off to accomplish their given objectives as fast as they could.

"Dx... Dx... Dx.. You know you will not survive the war on this planet." Spoke the voice once more.
Dx was alone as the other Night Children had pressed on to find and kill the Guardsmen commanders. Now he believed it was safe to speak openly with the Daemon that still lingered within his mind.
"I will once the Night Lords arrive." Returned Dx.
"Night Lords? It has been weeks since you have heard anything from them. Ariock was supposed to have been dealt with by now if your Talon Lord was dealing with him. They have left you here to die. To be used a distraction so the Talon Lord can achieve his own prorities." Whispered the Daemon.
"Yes and while they are doing this Ariock is throwing down Khorne and the rest of the Night Lords are loving the False Emperor. Laughed Dx and he knew the Daemon was lying to him to convince him to do something that would only help the Daemon.
"I lie do I? If I lie explain how come no one has arrived to assist the Night Children? Explain how when met with the seriousness of a threat the False Angels that defend the rotting Imperium pose upon the Night Children and possibly the Night Lords. You cannot can you." Chuckled the Daemon.
"Fine lets say you are speaking the truth to me. I have been left here to die with my Night Children and the Night Lords and using us as bait. How does any of this matter. Can you somehow call forth the Night Lords to help us? Can you make the Space Marines disappear? I don't think you can. Can you!" Shouted Dx.
"No I cannot but I can offer you some assistance in this war. Are you interested?" Said the Daemon knowing it had already grabbed Dx's interest.
"What can you offer me in this time of need? New weapons? Armour? Death to my foes?" Dx spoke hoping to receive a straight forward answer.
"I can help you call forth some of my fellow daemons. They can be summoned from the Immaterium where they will kill anything that opposes your will." Said the Daemon hoping to get Dx to make a deal.
"What do you want in return as I don't think you will do this out your kindness." Spoke Dx quickly wanting to get an answer quickly to help save himself and the Night Children.
"I would require... A sacrifice of many would be willing to give themselves freely to Slaanesh or of something that would be of great important to Slaanesh. That is how I will grant you the use of some Daemons for this war." Spoke the Daemon.
"Forget it Daemon. The Talon Lord wouldn't allow us to have Daemons used in any situation even if it caused us to die." Raged Dx.
"Have you not listened to me! I told you that the Night Lords and your Talon Lord have forsaken you. You have been left to die. Even the Cursed Nightmare was in on this. The Talon Lord didn't want to lose a ship so he made sure your captain and crew were loyal to him and when the time came he could easily make his escape while the Night Children were left to cover their retreat. Now you have two choices. Die without my help or receive my support and live to see another day upon this world." Spoke the Daemon.
"I wouldn't have been left here. I couldn't have been. I am a member of the Night Lords and I will stay one! The Talon Lord will arrive soon and once he does I will show you and this whole world what happens when the Night Lords attack in full force!" Raged Dx once more as he prepared to move.
"Fine then Dx. The offer is still there. Once you realise the truth that you have been abandoned I will just wait for you to call for me and I will assist you so that you can help spread Slaanesh's will across the Galaxy. Mad laughter broke out as the silence came after the Daemon had spoke.

I will write some more soon.
Pretty much I think the next piece will be in a few days if not have fun waiting. =P

[Lord Ariok]

great story dx i loved it can't wait for the next one

[dx144]

Thanks sexy

[Lord Ariok]

every time you say that it sends fear through my body lol

[dx144]

Babe... You know this does nothing but help me in my mission of scaring you to death! :D:D:D:D:D

[dx144]

More Death, More Ecstasy, More of Everything

"This is Cursed Nightmare requesting immediate support! We have encountered Space Marines who engaged us in a surprise attack. We had no idea how they knew we were there. We jammed every communication that came out from the planet. The Cursed Nightmare is holding together but has taken serious damage. Dx still is upon the surface of Tnemhcatta with the Night Children. Dx allowed us to escape to get the Night Lords to assist with the liberation from the False Emperor's lapdogs." Spoke the Captain of the Cursed Nightmare.

"How!? How could you not see them coming!" Raged a voice.

"They suddenly appeared and the Vox and our systems were being interfered with so we could send a transmission down to Dx to ask to retreat. Thank Slaanesh we managed to final send a transmission down to Dx. I think while the "Cursed Nightmare" was in battle we must have disabled their communication jamming systems. We cannot know for sure though. Continued the Captain.

"We will assist Dx and the Night Children as soon as we can but right now the issue with the Bloodied Night is still being resolved." Replied the angry voice.

Still?! How can that be the Night Children have been screaming for help for weeks with no response. Now as we are staring into the abyss we are told to continue waiting. I demand you tell me your commander and I will personally kill you if I am not told who they are!" Raged the Captain.


"Insolent Bastard! You think you can speak to the Talon Lord like that!" Roared the Talon Lord at having being disrespected and to make things worse it was a mortal who had insulted him.

"Talon Lord! I didn't realise it was you! Please forgive me!" Cried the Captain at the realisation he could have just signed his own death warrant.
"Calm down you damned idiot. I will send Dx the help when we can. Right now we are dealing with Ariok's situation." the Talon Lord said with anger still clinging to his voice.

"What has Lord Ariok done?" Asked the Captain.
"I cannot discuss that with you. Only the War Council needs to know." Spoke the Talon Lord.
"Forgive my intrusion. Curiosity got the better of me." Apologised the Captain.

"Talon Lord how long until Dx can be given some assistance?" Questioned the Captain with desperation filling the Cursed Nightmare wanting to return to the fight and help save their lords the Night Children.
"Soon. I will deal with Ariok and then we will regroup and move to support Dx. I do however have some units who could be used for some support. The Lords of the Apocalypse and various other specialist Night Lords have finished and returned to the Silent Shadow and their own ships." Said the Talon Lord.
"Could they be sent to support the Night Children?" Questioned the Captain.

"They can and will. I want the Cursed Nightmare to be among them though. The Cursed Nightmare will have to do some quick repairs and then be used as a distraction to allow the Night Lords to get down to the planet and support the Night Children." Spoke the Talon Lord.
"The Cursed Nightmare is going back into the warzone!" Said the Captain as he was shocked by what he had just heard.
"Is that understood. If not I think there is someone of that ship willing to do their Lord's will." Spoke the Talon Lord with the rage returning to his voice.
"Dx is my Lord not you or any other Night Lord. I will do this not for you but for my men and the Night Children upon the planet." Spoke the Captain knowing this could be his last conversation with anyone as a Captain or even being a alive.

Dx was still cleaning out the Command Centre. Constant Guardsmen were pouring into the Night Children to try and delay them so the cowardly Governor could escape with his life again.

It wouldn't be long before the Space Marines drop down upon the planet and remove the forces of Chaos. Dx knew he was doomed without the support of another group of warriors. The Night Children could handle the Guardsmen but with ammo limited and Space Marines on approach Dx and his Night Children were in trouble.

There wasn't any fuel left for their bikes which were left to rust in the field with the other left overs from the warzones.

The Nigh Children still moved with great haste to Find the Governor and slaughter the Guardsmen who didn't embrace Slaanesh as their new God and throw down the False Emperor.

There were many refugees from the cities taking refuge in these bunkers.
This did nothing to stop the Night Children. As the Night Children took to a mass slaughter while they were searching women, children, old, the weak, the sick anyone who didn't embrace Slaanesh served with their souls being sent to the Dark Prince.

The Night Children didn't use their bolters, melta guns, bolt pistols, flamers, stalker and their corrupted Daemon eye bolter versions as why waste ammo that can damage and kill Space Marines on mortals who would die just as easy from claws, chainswords or combat blades. This also was more thrilling for the Night Children to see their enemies die by their hands.

This was a cleansing of the Imperium's faithful. Guardsmen after Guardsmen. Civilian after civilian none were spared from the torture of the Night Children. Most were hit in their pressure points that all Astartes learn for maximum effect while fighting in close combat or where to shoot to immobilize an enemy.

Just as what happened at the Governor's Palace was happening here. Once again Guardsmen begging to be spared and wishing to serve Chaos if they would have themselves and their family's lives from Chaos.

Dx accepted most who Wished to be part of the Night Children's fodder and scouts. They thought they had been chosen, saved and spared from death.

Dx knew they would all die on this planet. Space Marines preparing to drop and they would be fully supplied with ammo, heavy weapons and armour which would punch another hole into the Night Children ranks. The Night Children would probably be destroyed if the Night Lords don't appear.

Still the most recent traitor guardsmen were quickly converted and marked with a Slaaneshi symbol on their right cheek so when the Imperium's Space Marines arrived they would show no mercy to the Guardsmen who were alive and given into the temptation of Chaos.

They were also commanded to eat the flesh of their former comrades. Nothing was to be too depraved for the Night Children. They would be sent to the extreme. Most of the traitorous Guardsmen would fall to insanity from the fate of serving the Night Children.

This did make the hunt much quicker. Known locations the Governor had been when helping fortify the Headquarters but the Basilisks were further back than this position and were unable to fire on the Headquarters as they had direct orders from a note the Night Children found in the Headquarters along with hundreds of other orders given out that weren't to be violated or face a firing squad for disobeying a superior officers orders without proper reason.

This wasn't entirely good or bad for the Night Children. But Dx saw how they could use this to their advantage. Dx sent off three Night Children to capture the Basilisk from the Guardsmen. If any of the Guardsmen surrendered and wished to serve Chaos they would be allowed to join as most mortals don't understand how to maintain, operate or use a Basilisk properly so they would be valued in the coming battle with the Space Marines.

Most of the Headquarters had been searched. Only a few areas left. Guardsmen had stop coming the Night Children. Perhaps to many of them had died and now none would dare face them.

The Night Children armour resembled more of the World Eaters from the amount of blood clinging to their armour. No more were they Hormagaunt Purple and Desert Yellow they were a mix of fresh and dried blood.

"Governor! Governor! Come out, come out wherever you are!" Laughed Dx as he searched everywhere.

Only one room left. It was the main command room. Generals and other superior officers bodies lay dotted around the Headquarters now dead rooms filled with bodies and blood.

This final room was marked with the seal of the Inquisition.

"This should be interesting..." Said Dx to the closet Night Children.
"Do you think any of the Inquisition is here?" Questioned a Night Child.
"Why are you scared of the False Emperor!" Dx laughed with the other Night Children.
"Well if there are any forces of the Inquisition then we will rip them open and feast upon their flesh. Continued Dx as he used the last of his Melta Charges blasting the door open.

It all seemed to happen in a flash. The room erupted in a flash of light. Though the Guardsmen were prepared for the explosion they couldn't be prepared for what was described to them. Though many wore protective eye gear on their helmets it little. The Night Children on the other hand were more than ready having done these kind of attacks countless times before.

The Guardsmen were mowed down. A few cracks from a bolter and then all was left was dead Guardsmen and a Governor shitting himself as he saw death had final caught up with him. Dx let out a grin and approached the Governor who did nothing but started to cry and Dx knew this was one the "noble" families which helped the rule the carcass of the Imperium.

They were born into success. Born to rule. Supposed to be a shining example for lesser men to follow but what would the Imperium think of him now. A coward who hid behind others to fight his battle all the time even if he had to sign an entire planet away just to save himself.

Dx grabbed the Governor by the scruff of his neck and threw him out of the Headquarters and threw him to the ground. He was still alive but from that throw Dx heard something snap.

Still the Governor did have equipment bought for him that could do some damage such as his Plasma pistol. He tried to grab it before Dx grabbed him. All that happened was he was shocked with fear when gazed upon by these colossal warriors who had survived everything the Governor threw at them. He also had a sword. It wouldn't cut threw the Night Children's armour but could make hits into it.

He was horrified when he looked up from the ground and saw the entire land that was once thriving with the Imperium's civilians doing their "Duty" to the Emperor.

Only then did the Governor speak.
"Have you no honour! Have you no sense of respect! What drove you to do this madness upon the innocent who never did anything to you!? You're nothing but a bunch of murdering cowards who get your kicks from killing the weaker. Once our Angels fall they will avenge me and all those who fell before me!" Raged the Governor with tears rolling down his face from the sights, smells and doom that lay around him.

"I have no honour? You hid from us so many times when you could have faced me in the glory of battle. When we did get to you what did you do? You ran like the coward you are. Respect? I respect those who have something to offer me. You have nothing. I was once at the mercy of the so called nobles of my homeland. You know they would do anything they wished. If anyone opposed them for such tyrannical behaviour they were deemed heretics to the False Emperor and shot, burned or killed in some other manner to show that they were absolute. When they said my family were heretics for not paying their taxes when they had already raised the taxes of the planet that they could afford anything they were deemed traitors as they weren't giving everything to the God Emperor. So you know what happened. They were shot in a public execution to show that the God Emperor's will not be denied." Spoke Dx with rage.

"I was still a Lapdog at that time. I would have hunted down and kill the rulers of my home if I wasn't still doing my training and not learning of my parents fate years after what had happened. When I could exact my vengeance it was too late. The rulers had escaped when they saw the Chaos forces approaching. They told the Space Marines stationed and escaped. You are exactly like them. Only difference is you could escape. If you could have you would have and you speak of me committing atrocities across the Galaxy? The rotting carcass of the Imperium sacrifices millions possibly billions of men and women each day just to hold onto their land. This Galaxy is Chaos's to destroy, to build.. to burn. You sent hundreds of thousands to die upon this planet to try and save yourself. They saw you as a embodiment of the False Emperor's faith upon this planet. You will make a fine addition..." Dx raged and carried the Governor off.

"Addition to what? Where are you taking me you heretical scum! Answer me now!" Screamed the Governor.
"Or what will happen. You will go cry to daddy saying the big bad Night Children stole your planet. I think you might want to stop screaming. You will be filled with screams soon enough." Said Dx with an annoyance at the Governor constant whining.

"DX! ABOVE!" Raged a voice.
Dx look above and saw the Cursed Nightmare returned to the orbit of Tnemchatta.

"Wait. Why is she alone? Where is her support! The Cursed Nightmare will be torn to bits!" Screamed Dx at the inevitable fate of the Cursed Nightmare.

The explosions could be seen from the surface. The Cursed Nightmare was coming in for a crash landing.
"Someone find the predicated location the Cursed Nightmare will crash!" Continued Dx in his rage wanting to protect the Cursed Nightmare with no way to defend it.
A loud burst of laughter broke out from the Governor. "Looks like you will meet your end upon this rock as well scum. Spat the Governor.

Dx punched the Governor lightly in the head. Didn't really harm him but gave him a big shock and to let him know he should be quite for a time.

"Dx predicated crash site twenty miles east of here. Well good luck getting there. It is behind the Basilisk lines. Breaking through that location will take more than our forces to get through." Spoke a Night Child.

"I could call up something to give us some support..." Dx said.
"Well whatever it is call upon it if you want to get to the crash site and call upon them soon." Said the Night Child as he went off to scavenge the battlefield for the next battle.

"Dx do you read? Dx? This is Night Lords strike force First Claw. Dx do you read?" Spoke the Vox.
"This is Dx. How many of First Claw is there and where are you. You best not be in the Cursed Nightmare or the Talon Lord isn't going to be happy that his First Claw was all killed in a crash. Good to hear some friendly voices though. Laughed Dx.
"No Dx we are in a Thunderhawk flying into your position now. There is seven of us. Juggs, Myself Ragtag, Spiny, Siddicus, Yon, Lothair and Dante. Just to confirm you are at the Headquartes that seems to be a smoldering ruin?" Spoke Ragtag through the Vox.
"Yeah most likely but I want the Cursed Nightmare to be salvaged." Responded Dx.
"Dx that isn't the mission. Our mission is to retrieve yourself and any other Night Children." Spoke Ragtag back into the Vox.
"Well I don't take orders from anyone on the battlefield. I am off to get over to my ship. I am off to salvage it and then steal something to me the hell of this rock." Raged Dx.
"Well how do you plan to do that Dx. Just walk on through the enemy lines and just pop in for a visit!" As laughs came through the Vox.
"I have my ways Ragtag, I have my ways. I would like my Night Children to be rearmed though. Did you bring enough ammo to spare?" Laughed Dx.
"As always we have more than enough. We let your guys take when they need. Do you need any supplies?" Asked Ragtag.
"All I need is a serf to clean my armour or some water." Said Dx.
"Water? How bad is your armour then?" Continued Ragtag.
"Well I could probably be mistake for a World Eater." Laughed Dx.
"That bad eh? Well I will be dropping off to your location in a few minutes. First Claw out."

[Lord Ariok]

good read that story dx worth the looong wait keep up the good work mate

[dx144]

Yeah I am done with my Ipod now. I learned that I could send a note from my Ipod to my Hotmail so I got it up so much faster =D

Also thanks for reading sexy =D

[Lord Ariok]

your welcome ...... wait what did you call me?

[dx144]

Babe calm down...

[dx144]

Trickster, Deceiver, Liar!

"Dx what is your plan? Just charge in there and get to the Cursed Nightmare. Just from flying down to here we saw hundred upon hundreds of Guardsmen. Then after all that their are Space Marines preparing to drop." Spoke Ragtag as the Night Children were rearming.
"I will call upon reinforcements to push through the Guardsmen and retrieve some... Cargo." Quickly spoke back Dx.
"Reinforcements? Who can you call upon? We are the reinforcements and we aren't being sent into a warzone for a Ship that contains some Slaaneshi artefacts. Spat back Ragtag.
"I have some connections with Slaanesh I can ask for." Spoke Dx with a grin on his face.

"Daemons? Dx the Talon Lord frowns upon the use of Daemons! I cannot allow you to use them!" Shouted Ragtag at the discovery of what Dx was planning.
"Why not! I and my warriors have been dying down here! Nothing had been sent to assist us and now we find a solution and now you want to stop us? I ask you Ragtag. Would you not do everything you could to keep your Lords of the Apocalypse from dying?" Shouted back Dx.
"I understand your frustration at the loss of life but I cannot allow this. I must stop you from doing this. If this means the Night Children need to be put down then it will be done. Please do not make us have to do this." Spoke Ragtag.

Several seconds passed with silence filling the area apart from the occasional explosion within the background.

"I am sorry Ragtag. I cannot allow my ship to become some war relic of this Planet, I need to reclaim what is mine and nothing will stop me." Dx said as he felt his hand clenching his Bolt Pistol.
"Dx think about this. If you do decide to fight against the Night Lords for some wreckage then the Night Children will be destroyed. If not by us then those forces above. They will destroy us all. Now is not the time to kill each other. Now we need to fight together." Said Ragtag with tension filling the air as two Champions might be having a showdown within a split second.

"Let me get to the Cursed Nightmare and reclaim some things from it. Then I will send the Daemons back to the Warp then we can forget this ever happened. I will do anything to get to my ship! Pleased Ragtag there is stuff on board that I require." Pleaded Dx.
"Fine but only for a short amount of time. You must be in and out within a day. If you take any longer then the Talon Lord could arrive and we would all be deemed enemies of the Talon Lord." Spoke Ragtag.
"Thank you Ragtag. I will get in and out as fast as possible." Spoke Dx with a sigh of relief and releasing clenched hand from his Bolt Pistol.


"First Claw. Keep a close eye on Dx something isn't right here I smell the taint of Slaaneshi Daemons." Said Ragtag to First Claw as they moved back to the Thunderhawk

Dx took the Governor who was still clinging to life to a secluded area which Dx was going to use so he could sacrifice the Governor. Foul runes and markings of Slaanesh were placed around the area. The Governor was tied and tortured with unspeakable acts by the cultists who managed to survive the battles that had destroyed most of the Night Children. For hours the ritual took place. Soon when the Daemon spoke to Dx once more.

"Dx, this is not enough. Slaanesh will require a greater or more souls to give you what you need." Hissed the Daemon as it slithered back into Dx's mind.
"Well what should I do? I have nothing else to spend but my men's lives and I shall not use them." Spoke Dx calmly to the Daemon.
"I can think of someone who would be a great enough offering to Slaanesh to get an army to conquer this world and many more." Laughed the Daemon.
"You want my soul? I have already pledged myself to Slaanesh and he shall receive my soul when I have died in ecstasy upon the battlefield." Shouted losing his calm with the Daemon
"Very good Dx! I shall take what you promised all those years ago!" Screamed the Daemon as Dx fell to his knees as daemonic possession was the actual ritual not a summoning ritual.

The cultists around who had empowered the Daemon were now dead in a mark of Slaanesh. Dx fought the Daemon as much as he could but the Daemon had gained power over the years while hiding within Dx's mind feeding off his emotions.

"Trickster! Deceiver! Liar!" Shouted Dx in his last few gasps of air.
Laughter broke out from the Daemon as it finally took control. "Doesn't it feel so painful Dx! Learning one you had trusted so much had actually been using you all along! Ah new flesh, has been a while. I might need to make some changes to your body to accomidate me properly." Spoke the Daemon as now Dx was forced out of his own body.

"Now to reclaim something for my master" Spoke the animated body of Dx.

Daemons appeared from the Warp around the area. Daemonettes everywhere.

The Daemon growled "All Night Children move to the Cursed Nightmare! Reclaim what is mine!"

Dx now moved with such speed. He already was fast in battle but this was unseen before. Dx could have never attained this speed. The Guardsmen who were setting up a defensive position were preparing for Chaos Space Marines not Chaos Daemons. When they finally found they were fighting mostly Daemons they were shocked with fear becoming the playthings of the Daemons.

The Cursed Nightmare was in sight. It was in pretty good condition since it had been in a crash landing.

"Survivors!" Growled the animated corpse of Dx.
"Dx! Thank Slaanesh you're here! We are ready to help defend the Night Childr..." Spoke a slave on the Cursed Nightmare just before the Daemon ripped the slave open and flayed his flesh.

"Foolish mortal." Laughed the Daemon as it made its way into the Cursed Nightmare's wreckage.

Coming to an end

The Daemon entered the wreckage. With all of Dx's memories or perhaps had been pretending to be Dx as he had all the knowledge to make it through the wreckage quickly as possible.

Some of the areas sealed when the hull had been breached and automatic doors sealed to protect other parts of the ship.
This required Dx to take long routes to his personal quarters. In these quarters Dx had accumulated a large amount of Eldar soul stones. 

Dx didn't fully understand what they were but knew they were important for some reason. There were hundreds of these stones placed around Dx's quarters. 

With these souls Slaanesh could have devoured them and blessed Dx with much greater powers. Something had always stayed Dx's hand from slaughtering the Eldar souls.

There was also another. A Eldar Farseer who was aboard the Cursed Nightmare and could still be alive. She was placed within one of the most protected areas possibly the most protected area within the Cursed Nightmare.

It is quite possible she was still alive but more likely she died within the battle above or when the Cursed Nightmare came in for a crash landing.

"Dx! You best hurry up with this extraction from the Cursed Nightmare." Spoke Ragtag through the Vox.
Snarling and grunting noises were first heard back through the Vox. "I will take as long as I want and need. Nurgle worshipping fool." Screamed back the Daemon.
"Just because you failed Dx doesn't mean you need to take it out on my God who has blessed me with victory after victory. Meanwhile Slaanesh has blessed you with failure." Laughed Ragtag.
"You will not be laughing soon. Not when I manage to get something from the Cursed Nightmare which will cleanse this planet of false idol worshipping fools." Laugh the Daemon with maddened laughed.
"Dx what do you have on that ship that could cleanse this planet?" Questioned Ragtag.
"You will see Nurgle's little puppet. You will see." Spoke the Daemon as the Vox turned to static.
"Something isn't right. Dx would have gloated to the whole Warp if he had something of that kind of power. I just cannot imagine what Dx would have capable though." Spoke Ragtag out loud to the members of First Claw.

"Perhaps Dx summoned something from the ritual which could do the work he needs?" Said Dante calmly checking his bolter was loaded and clear.
"Dx is bluffing. There must be something aboard the Cursed Nightmare Dx wants but it must be secret but it has no real power except emotional value. You know how Slaaneshi worshipers are with objects. They see them as if they are items from Slaanesh himself." Spoke Lothair as his Lascannon hummed with raw power.
"That seems plausible but what could have Dx risk everything to get? It might be something of great power. Perhaps it is Soul stones or something else of Eldar origin. Slaanesh blesses those who give Eldar souls or items to Slaanesh." Spoke Siddicus as he cleaned out chucks of meat from his chainaxe from his battles with the Bloodied Night.
"Well Dx has been acting strangely ever since the ritual. Charging with no regard for anything else. He didn't even ask for our support. That means its secret to Dx. Should we respect his privacy?" laughed Nurgle's champion Juggs who had his armour reinforced living flesh that was still rotting as if it was just placed there and his Lascannon at his side motionless until it was needed.

"Whatever it is I think it may be a threat to the Night Lords stability. We need to find out what it is and destroy or isolate it until we know what to do. We need to get there fast so we will take the Thunderhawk. First Claw we move!" Spoke Ragtag as he assembled First Claw to investigate the Night Children's activities.

The area around the Cursed Nightmare was a feasting ground for the Daemonettes and Crows who were striping the dead of their items which could be used the the Night Children in future engagements. 

The Daemon was still moving through the Cursed Nightmare looking for Dx's quarters. Something or someone was stopping the Daemon from accessing Dx's memories while aboard the Cursed Nightmare.

"I warned you Dx. I warned you not to give into the temptations of Slaanesh and that Daemon. Spoke the Eldar Farseer Luthwen.
"Listen witch! Dx is gone now. I am Dx. I am Slaanesh's champion now. Once I send your and your races souls to Slaanesh I will be rewarded with unimaginable power." Laughed the Daemon.
"Perhaps Dx is gone but you are still in a Mon khiegh body that can easily be destroyed by Psychic powers that I am master of using." Spoke Luthwen as she prepared to use he psychic powers to destroy the Daemon and Dx's body.

As Luthwen raise her arms radiating with physic power which would rip Dx's body to shreds the Daemon moved once more with such unnatural speed that it grabbed the frail Eldar Farseer by the throat and was choking the life out of her.

The witch was about to fall when Dx's body resisted and loosen its grip upon the witch. The moment she was freed large gasps of breathing came from the witch.

"Dx! This isn't your body anymore! You were a fool for refusing to kill these witches who were brought before you. You have hundreds of their souls aboard this ship which could have made you a favoured son of Slaanesh but instead you threw it all away! If need be I will destroy this entire world just to send these few Eldar souls to Slaanesh!" Screeched the Daemon to Dx as it attempted to regain control of Dx's body.

During this short period of time the Daemon was distracted with Dx the Farseer Luthwen escaped and prepared to tear Dx's possessed body apart.

Large amounts of physic energies illuminated that Cursed Nightmare. Night Children, Crows and Daemonettes all charged into the Cursed Nightmare to see what all this was about.

Even First Claw saw the Cursed Nightmare brightening up in the darkness. 

"Something isn't right! We need to get to the Cursed Nightmare immediately!" Said Ragtag as the Thunderhawk made quick landing and First Claw made a quick exit from the Thunderhawk.

First Claw charged into the Cursed Nightmare all looking for Dx and what caused all the commotion that could be see from the sky.

The Night Children scattered around the Cursed Nightmare searching for resemblance to the ship they had once known. Now it was just a burning wreckage and a memory of their past.

However the Daemonettes knew exactly where they were going as if they were linked to the Daemon within Dx.

The physic powers still blazing out from the holes and cracks within the Cursed Nightmare.

"Forget it witch! I am undefeatable right now! Not you or anyone else can beat me in combat." Laughed the Daemon as Daemonettes approached.
Luthwen spun on her heels and fired more of her ancient race's physic powers. The Daemonettes fell back into the Warp. The screams of the Daemonettes echoed throughout the Cursed Nightmare. Both First Claw and the remaining Night Children rushed off to find the source of where the Daemons had fallen.

Luthwen continued to follow Dx to his quarters. She knew exactly the Daemon was planning for the soul stones within Dx's quarters.
She even wondered why Dx would have kept these. These thoughts flew from her mind when another Daemonette jumped at her. Knowing that there was no time as Luthwen would need to keep concentration if she wanted to stop the Daemon from committing the atrocities it was about to commit upon her race.

"I smell the stench of a Xeno witch." Said Spiny as he spat to the floor. 
"Thought I smelt something." Laughed Dante as he kept his eyes open for the witch or any other danger that may be lurking.
"How did a Xeno get here? There is no records of the Xenos Eldar on this planet and if they have been here why have we only just found out about them now. On a Night Lord ship?" Question Juggs as all of the Slaaneshi taint around him made he feel sick. 
"Dx could have brought it. Dx usually bragged about having feasts upon the Cursed Nightmare of the finest meat in the Galaxy." Spoke Siddicus as he saw how much Dx had changed since his days as a Black Soul.
"So Dx was keeping live Eldar?" Stopped Ragtag as he turned his gaze upon the Siddicus.
"Guess so. Would make the meat fresher." Laughed Siddicus as he continued walking down the Cursed Nightmare.
"This ship has been touched by the Warp quite excessively. I didn't know Dx had the Sorcerers capable of doing this. Dx must had some serious help or some kind of connection to the Warp to make his ship become filled with Slaaneshi energies." Said Yon as he looked around in wonder at how Dx had managed all of this.
"Quiet now we are Xeno hunting." Laughed Ragtag as he pulled his Twin Bolter closer to his chest.

The Daemon was now searching all of Dx's quarters. Throwing everything around and making it even more of a mess from the battle and crash that left the Cursed Nightmare in this state.

"You do know once I find these stones I will personally tear your soul apart. I will spare you some of the pain or make it last longer if you tell me where they are." Spoke the Daemon in the dark quarters of Dx.
"You have already stolen my body, my soul, ruined my Night Children and now you want to destroy everything I ever care about. Was this Slaanesh's plan for me all along?" Spoke Dx to the Daemon.

"Slaanesh doesn't care for weaklings. If you were a true warrior of Slaanesh then you would have defeated me, destroyed the Eldar soul stones and returned to the Night Lords to take your rightful place as the Talon Lord. That is what Slaanesh had planned for you. If only Slaanesh knew you were such a weakling. You would have died on that forgotten planet which you first tasted Chaos's power. Dx if you had only embraced Chaos to its full extent you would not only have been powerful enough to rival some of the most feared warriors of Chaos you would have also been blessed with anything you desired." Spoke the Daemon as if it was moulding Dx into something before it took control.

"Perhaps I could do all that now? I could destroy everything and everyone who dare stand before me." Questioned Dx into the void of his mind now ruled by the Daemon. 
"It is too late Dx. You were given your chance and you failed. Slaanesh doesn't give second chances Dx you should know that." Laughed the Daemon.

All Dx was doing was trying to distract the Daemon for as long as he could. Just to buy Luthwen more time to defeat the Daemon. 

Dx was beyond redemption.

Night Lords didn't accept the use of Daemons.
The Night Children now a shard of their former selves.
From a single battle Dx had cost the Night Lords greatly.
An entire Warband reduce to a few, the Cursed Nightmare a cruiser that had been in control of the Night Lords for some years and only managed to defeat a handful of Guardsmen on a unknown planet that was of little worth.

Dx wanted this. He wanted to be removed from the living. The failures here would stain the Night Lords and all because Dx listened to the destroyers of Mankind.

The Daemon that corrupted Dx now attempted to use Dx to destroy the Night Lords. If only Dx had learned more from Curze's teachings. He could have learnt about Daemons and what they actually want.

All Gods are the enemies of Man. Just like the foul Xeno races Dx had been told about that would use Man for their own malicious gains. 
These so called Gods and Xenos may promise great things but ultimately tell lies and trick us to gain what they can then leave us to rot. 

Strange though. If I cannot kill a single Eldar soul is it due to their trickery? Is it from some strange liking of the Xenos? Perhaps something more powerful than some God is at work. Maybe if there was some way to retake my body and then explain to First Claw they could help me out of this problem I have created.

But what of the witch. I cannot possible kill something which helps me out so much. I would be just like these so called Gods who promise so much and end with trickery and lies. 

I could take the witch. Escort her from First Claw then escape the planet on a Thunderhawk or some other transport to take her somewhere safe. 
This is the least I could do for such help given to me. Even after I killed her race mercilessly.

How could I hide her though. Most she could trick with psychic powers or something I guess but Yon.

Recent Head Sorcerer could pick up on her psychic sent miles away.

They probably already have. Ragtag would have been more than curious to know what had happened aboard the Cursed Nightmare that caused me to be so obsessed with returning to it....

"Damn it! How does anyone know where they are going on this ship!" Shouted Juggs.
"I have to agree this place is a maze with all of these lock downed areas from the battle that raged above." Said Siddicus as he was also confused with the ship's layout.
"We'll wherever Dx is we will find him and learn about what has happened here and if he has his object so we can get off this rock and leave it to fester with the destruction brought upon it." Said Ragtag as he continued searching for Dx following the stench of Xenos.

Dx still wondering what would happen once he managed to regain his body. Would he have memories lost? Would he be changed in some way? Would he be more powerful? Would he have to give payment for this new power?

Did anything deserve to live?

If Dx wanted he could kill anyone or anything if he put his mind to it. But countless foes were killed by Dx.

Khornate fanatics were killed by Dx, Lapdogs were killed by Dx, Guardsmen were slaughtered by Dx, though a rare occasion even some Sisters of Battle were killed by Dx.

Why is this Eldar witch still able to confuse and stop Dx dead in his tracks every time he felt as if he was to harm the witch someone or something came over him like a great shadow and forced him to stop his pursuit of killing, pleasure and ecstasy from inflicting pain upon the creature.
 
Perhaps she was created to torment Dx. Dx couldn't bring himself to kill her but hated the fact she lived. Without that capability to kill her and not allowing others to even touch the witch Dx felt compelled to defend her even if it cost him his life.

All Dx needed to do was to be free in his body again and then Dx could finally end everything. 

"Ah witch you have returned." Snarled the Daemon.
"You think those things could stop me from sending you back to the hell you came from!" Shouted Luthwen.
"Don't worry I will send you into that hell soon enough." Laughed the Daemon.

The melee now consumed the Daemon and Luthwen. Both fighting tirelessly. Every time one was about to land a hit their amazing reflexes would cause the hit to miss. 

Although Luthwen's armour was still cracked and broken open from when she was captured this didn't effect her combat skills. Her weapon was left back where she was captured so long ago. Luthwen had to make do with a left over Night Child weapon. One free of corruption but was slightly too big for her. After every attack she had to steady herself not to let the weapon throw her over.

The Daemon suffered none if this. Dx's armour was stronger than it had ever been and the weapons had become fuelled with a Daemonic essence which made Dx's body hit all the harder and recover all the faster.

Dx was still screaming inside his mind trying to distract or defeat the Daemon. 

"Dx stop. You are empowering the Daemon. Your screams are send psychic powers off that the Daemon feeds upon. Just stay calm and try to distract the Daemon by doing something that doesn't use any of your emotions." Spoke Luthwen to Dx's mind.
"I will try but cannot promise you anything but I will try." Said Dx as he prepared to distract the Daemon.
"Then promise you will try then." Spoke Luthwen uplifting the mood a little in this dark time.
"That I can." Laughed Dx as he finally went off to deal sight the Daemon.

Within moments of Dx starting to distract the Daemon into Dx's mind did Luthwen manage to gain the upper hand now that Dx wasn't strengthening the Daemon but instead weakening it.

Dx calling out the Daemon to fight him inside his own mind. Dx hoped he didn't have to fight the Daemon just because he wasn't equipped with any weapons and didn't have any armour. The Daemon would rip him apart.

But this would help Luthwen win the fight. This was the only way Luthwen could win she was already heavily damaged from the previous fight which she hasn't received any real medical treatment for apart for her natural healing she had to hope would keep her safe.

It didn't help she had a terrible diet aboard the Cursed Nightmare scraps from the Night Children feasts mostly. This wasn't anything good to begin with. Usually dead humans, Orks, Eldar or anything else that the Night Children saw appetising to their sick tastes of flesh.

The Daemon started to have delayed reactions as Dx called out the Daemon with various insults. The Daemon knowing it couldn't win within the mind of Dx and with Luthwen on the outside of Dx decided to leave Dx's body as a shell while the Daemon to deal with Dx.

The moment this happen Dx's lifeless corpse fell to the floor with massive thud as his Slaaneshi corrupted armour hit the ground.

"Dx! You know you cannot win why do you even care for the witch who would sell you out in a second for herself or one her already dead race." Raged the Daemon.
"You and your master can never truly understand why and you will die trying to understand. Leave my body and mind at once. Return to your home and I shall leave Slaanesh alone." Spoke Dx in the utmost confidence.
A distorted laugh came from the Daemon "Dx you think you have any power compared to a Daemon such as myself or Slaanesh! I should kill you for even proposing that! If Slaanesh willed it you wouldn't even know it." 
"So Slaanesh still wills I live? Yet you still attempt to kill me. I will be your end Daemon." Shouted Dx as his turned to fists.
"Slaanesh wants your body... Your soul will be all Slaanesh wants. I will take your body and slaughter the Night Lords then will take Slaanesh's will across the Galaxy." Said the daemon as its true form appeared.

The Daemon a vile mixture of unimaginable shades of colours of red, yellow, green, blue and others which all seemed to blend into one unknown colour that would take a million mad men to describe.

The Daemon was similar to a Daemonette with its hands being like claws but the body was all different. While it was still a female like body it was much larger than a Daemonettes body and was like a a Keeper of Secrets body but smaller. It was hard to describe as it seemed to be moving even though it was still, looked like everything around it was moving and so many more details it would take a lifetime for Dx to describe.

It still was a disgusting creature that many Night Children would hold as sacred as they had already fallen too far. Dx had no idea how to properly fight it but he would fight it with ignorance. 

Dx's fists clenched with anger and prepared to strike the Daemon. As Dx prepared to strike the Daemon disappeared and appeared on the Cursed Nightmare.
 
Dx's body was still unconscious but was now free of the Daemon. 

Luthwen had cleared the Daemon from Dx's mind and body but now was tired from using her psychic powers. The Daemon enraged at losing its hold upon Dx now rose to its feet.

"Ragtag! Large Psychic disturbance!" Shouted Yon.
"Where? Do you know what happened?" Quickly spoke back.
"Follow me and I don't know but do something of that power would require a powerful Daemon to summoned of moved." Said Yon as First Claw began to run.

"Ah! You bitch! Do you know how long it took to get into that mind!" Raged the Daemon as it prepared to kill Luthwen.
"You have failed Daemon. Go back to the hell you came from and never return. If not I will put you back there myself." Spoke Luthwen out of breath.
"You have no power left witch! I will put you down and then kill that weakling and kill everyone and everything on this planet!" Continued raging the Daemon.

The Daemon raised its claws and prepared the cut the witch down. 
All that was heard was a loud crack of a bolt shot from a Bolter. 
Daemon! A Daemon is attacking Dx! Was all that was heard from First Claw until it was Dante who stepped forward shouting this.
Dante pulled out his chainsword and prepared to cut he Daemon open.
"Fool!" Shouted the Daemon it threw Dante away after its head was hit by a bolt round.
"Protect Dx! We will deal with him later!" Said Ragtag as First Claw laid fire from all positions on the Daemon.
The Daemon was fast but couldn't defend from so many locations at the same time. Hit after hit flew into the Daemon. When it got close enough hit First Claw another member would knock the Daemon off and allow that member to escape. 

"Enough" Raged the Daemon as its voice knocked over First Claw. 

The Daemon went back Luthwen to enact vengeance.
 
"Your time has come witch. Dx can't save you this time!" Laughed the Daemon.

Luthwen was picked up by her hair and was about to have her head cut off. 

"Embrace your fate witch. You cannot escape it!" Spoke the Daemon as it prepared to deliver the killing blow. 
"Not today Daemon." Said Luthwen as she blasted it away with the last of her psychic power.
"All you have done is delay the inevitable you fool." Laughed the Daemon. 

"If you thought that could defeat me then you are more of an idiot than I originally thought." Continued The Daemon.
"No but it did weaken you." Smirked Luthwen.
"So I am weakened. What of it. All around me are already at death. No one will save you now." Said the Daemon as it got back on its hoof like feet.

"Sorry to interrupt but I am not at death yet." Laughed Dx as the Daemon turned its head to Dx.
"You! You are not powerful any more. You are not a threat to me or anyone else." Spoke the Daemon as it prepared to charge Dx. 

First Claw were coming back around and were preparing to attack but stopping when realising this was something Dx must do alone.
Dx had thrown away his Daemonic weapons and picked up the powersword Luthwen had been using and thrusted it into the Daemon's stomach the Daemon did nothing but looked at Dx. 

The Daemon threw Dx away laughing at the attack Dx tried. The Daemon now did its own attack. Ripping through Dx's armour as if it wasn't there.
Dx was now a blood soaked corpse. Still capable of fighting but ached in agony and no long took pleasure in his pain. 

"I told you Dx. I told you that you had become weak. Now you are the proof to that statement." Spoke the Daemon with a stern look on its face as it noticed Slaanesh's blessings had left Dx.
"It isn't over yet you sick Slaaneshi Daemon!" Raged Dx as he rose back up from his knees and began to attack once more. 
Blow after blow hit the Daemon not even moving or attempting to dodge. Just taking hit after hit. 

"Quite done yet Dx?" Said the Daemon in the same stern manner as before.
"Just getting started." Laughed Dx as he pulled away from the Daemon and picked up Siddicus's Chainaxe.
"This might leave a mark on that Daemon." Said Dx aloud as he revved it up and charged in once more.
The chainaxe ripped the Daemon open but then as soon as the chainaxe was removed the Daemon healed up. 

"Enough Dx I grow tired of your failures! I will now show you the power you are now denied!" Finally changing its stern look to a violent rage and beginning a charge into Dx.

Dx still not prepared for the speed of the Daemon was floored by it. 

"See Dx. You have become slow and weak. I will rip your carcass apart now!" Laughed the Daemon.
"I was unprepared for your speed but I defeat you. Now this Daemon I will send you back to Slaanesh with a message. That message will say you have failed and Mankind will prevail against Chaos!" Roared Dx as he rose back to his feet.
"No Dx. You will fall again and again until you have felt so much pain you cannot take any more with your weakling body." Laughed the Daemon.

The Daemon once again charged into Dx. Dx blocked it off fought back with his own attacks. Slash after slash flew into the Daemon. Still doing little. The Daemon healing up after each hit.

Ok little bit more to go but it has been a while and Ariocky is dying of his addiction to reading...

[Lord Ariok]

Verry nice dx it wws awesome

[dx144]

Thanks babe. I will try to finish it soon.

[dx144]

Luthwen!

"How am I supposed to kill something that is pretty much invincible?" Questioned Dx to the surrounding Night Lords.
"You're not." Said the Daemon as it moved in for another attack.

The Daemon raised its claws and attempted to cut Dx apart. The attack barely missed Dx. If Dx was the slightest bit slower he would have been killed. Although the attack missed Dx did manage to hit the claws. The Chainaxe ripped through them sending a blood like substance to fly through the air.

Like all the times before the Daemon healed it up and continued its relentless attack on Dx. Attacks seemed to fly in from all sides without any delay.

"Dx! Take this!" Shouted Siddicus as he threw a frag grenade beside him.
"Stick that inside the bastard!" Laugh Siddicus.
"I'll try Sid. I hope this works." Said Dx as he threw Siddicus's Chainaxe into the Daemon to delay him after pulling back from the Daemon enough to throw the Chainaxe.

Dx looked around for any kind of weapon to defend himself with. The Daemon finally ripping the Chainaxe out of its Daemon body and preparing to kill the defenceless Dx.

"Fuck! I need a weapon!" Shouted Dx as he looked around for any kind of weapon capable of defending himself with.
"Here take this Dx." Said Dante as he threw his Powersword near Dx.
"Thank you Dante. Now to put this Daemon down." Said Dx as his face grew stern when he faced the Daemon.

"Come Dx embrace your fate. Prepared to mean your God." Laughed the Daemon as Dx rushed towards it.
"If I am going you're coming with!" Screamed Dx as he ripped over the Daemon with Dante's powersword and held the frag grenade in his other hand.

"Get ready for a bang Daemon!" Laughed Dx with maddened laughed as he jammed the frag grenade into the Daemon's torso with his hand.

"Fuck, my hand its stuck!" Screamed Dx as he tried to free himself.
"What have you done Dx? You best not be damaging my new body that you are taking care of for me." Spoke the Daemon as it prepared to cut Dx down.

Dx quickly pulled his combat blade out of his lower left thigh and tore a chuck of the Daemon's chest out. Dx's hand became loose but cut it open pretty bad.

"This was your attempt to defeat me! You once again tore a piece of me out and now I heal up. You have accomplished nothing with this attempt. Now die Dx and release your body to me and your soul to your God." Spoke the Daemon as it moved towards Dx.

"He is not my God anymore!" Shouted Dx as he was passed Dante's Bolter and unloaded bolt after bolt into the Daemon's chest until a explosion happened with the Daemon's chest splattering the Daemon's body everywhere.

The Sorcerers on hand quickly rose up. Dante and Yon both started to send the Daemon back the Warp.

The Daemon now seemed dead. Dx didn't like part of the sentence he just thought of. Seemed. Not sure but thought it was. Dx had to be sure.

Now just a pile of flesh the Daemon laid there. Dx moved up and saw there was still life clinging to the Daemon. Dx pulled up Dante's Bolter and fired the few remaining bolts into the Daemon's carcass.

It twitched and screamed with the last bolts hitting its body. These weren't screams of pain but pleasure from the pain. Dx felt sick that he would have enjoyed that kind of death before he came to this planet.

Dx spat on the carcass of the Daemon and moved away as a small portal was opened up and the Daemon's body fell through it.

"Well Dx. This is an odd encounter we have just had. Let me recap what I know so far. You have lost your warband. Well most of it, renounced Slaanesh as your God, killed a Daemon after summoning it and now...." Spoke Ragtag until Dx cut him off.
"Yes I know Ragtag. I have a lot to explain. Let me start from the beginning of how this came to happen. I think this Daemon has been with me since before I left the Emperor's service." Said Dx and repeated this story to Ragtag.

"Hmmm so you have had a Daemon with you since before the Black Souls. Never heard about what happened on that Planet you and Sid went to where the Eldar were. Heard it was a good fight down there. I did hear the part where you were almost killed until Sid saved you but didn't know that was how it happened. Then with the Night Children you actually captured an Eldar witch!" Spoke Ragtag.
"I prefer Luthwen." Spoke Dx.
"Luthwen? You learnt its name? I'm surprised the bitch even talked to you." Laughed Ragtag as he saw the unconscious Luthwen on the floor.
Dx's face stayed stern. "Well we captured Luthwen a few months ago. She didn't speak for a while. I didn't capture her for information. Something told me to capture her. I just thought it was that Daemon for some reason." Spoke Dx

"Interesting Dx. I think this all could be forgotten here. Just remember not to ever do anything stupid like this again. The Night Children look all dead and you seem to be the only survivor that can be rehabilitated within the Night Lords. Now we need to get off this planet as soon as we can." Said Ragtag.
"Lu... Luthwen. She needs medical attention." Hesitated Dx.
"Dx. I am trained to kill Xenos not save them. Come now or you will be left behind." Spoke Ragtag as he and First Claw started to make their exit.

"Dx, its only a Xeno there are more of them. Just lets leave and prepare for another battle. Like the good old days." Laughed Siddicus as he made his exit.
"Its not the same as any other Xeno Sid. This is one who I think the Human Race finally talked to or even got to know in a long time and she is almost dead from trying to save me." Spoke Dx with his eyes starting to become watery as he moved over to Luthwen's body.

"Well Dx we will be outside for five minutes. We are leaving with or without you." Spoke Siddicus as he turned around to leave and catch up to First Claw.
"I will not leave without Luthwen Sid. I will not leave without her." Spoke Dx.
"I know Dexy. I know. If you cannot leave with us then best of luck in the future." Spoke Siddicus as he began to run.

Dx checked Luthwen's vitals to see if she was alive.

Dx had very little idea on how even assist her as Dx knew Luthwen's weak spots and where he could quickly kill her.

Her beauty though still having her faced bruised and covered in blood Dx could still see her pale white skin breaking through the blood and bruises.

Dx wipe some of the blood off and woke her up.

"How am I supposed to fix you?" Spoke Dx.
"Fix me? What do you mean by fix?" Questioned Luthwen regaining consciousness.
"You know heal these wounds and damaged areas. I don't know what to do here." Spoke Dx with a concerned look stuck to his face.
"Dx... I don't think you can. I have lived through a lot of battles but these wounds. I still have them from when you first captured me. From the torture cell I was first taken to. That kept the wounds almost fresh. I haven't healed since then. My body will take a long time to heal up from all of this and I don't see any safe places nearby. Do you?" Spoke Luthwen as she coughed up bright red blood.

"Is there anything I can do? Please Luthwen!" Shouted Dx as tears began to build in his eyes.
"Dx you would need to be skilled in my anatomy if you even wanted to attempt to help me. I am sorry but I believe this is the end." Spoke Luthwen quietly as the life was being drained from her.
"No Luthwen. You will live on. I will make sure it happens." Spoke Dx as he picked up Luthwen's body and prepared to leave the Cursed Nightmare's wreckage.

Dx moved as fast as he could to Ragtag as he is the only person who had any idea on how to heal and Eldar here.

Dx's Vox was still damaged but Dx screamed through it continuously to try and get First Claw to stop. No answer was ever given to Dx through the Vox either through it being broken or Ragtag refusing to help Dx with Luthwen.

Dx after a few minutes did manage to catch up to First Claw but Luthwen's life was still leaving her.

"Ragtag please! I will do anything just save Luthwen!" Shouted Dx in a desperate plea for help.
"Enough Dx. I said I wouldn't help the witch and that is final. I am more than happy to treat your wounds but the witch as far as I am concerned can die with the rest of her dead race." Spat Ragtag as he prepared to walk off.

Dx slapped Ragtag in the face the moment he heard how he spoke about the Eldar and Luthwen. "No Ragtag. I am through with asking! I have just gone through hell and lost all that I had to call my own. Now I lose the last thing I truly hold close to me. I refuse to lose this!" Shouted Dx in his final attempt which would result in death or help for Luthwen.

"Fine Dx. If I help this witch then I you are not asking for medical attention from me and you will answer to the Talon Lord yourself. I cannot be arsed with clearing up your mess. It would take me an age to stop the Talon Lord from ripping me and you apart. I don't see why you want to save the witch anyway. Not like she will be allowed onto the Silent Shadow anyway." Said Ragtag as he prepared to help Luthwen.
"Thank you Ragtag. Can you save her though?" Questioned Dx.
"I think I could but I would need her help. Psykers can halt bleeding and other biological problems that arise when one is beaten. You hear that Witch! I need you to stop the bleeding with the powers you have so that Dx and I can save you." Spoke Ragtag with a look of disgust on his face.

Luthwen nodded and stopped the bleeding.

"Ok Dx I need you to get me my equipment from the Thunderhawk. I have in there some stimulants which can help with medical treatment. I have them because I thought you or some other Night Children would be injured but since you want the witch saving I guess she should use them." Continued Ragtag.

Dx gave a quick nod and ran with disregard for his own wounds.

Only when Dx made it to the Thunderhawk did he realise how bad his wounds were. Blood poured forth from them all at quite a rate. Dx estimated he only had a hour or two before he bled to death.

Dx ran back to Ragtag as soon as he could to give the stims which could help save Luthwen's life. First Claw all sat around not really concerned with Dx's struggle to save the Eldar witch.

"Dx you do know there is only a chance right?" Asked Ragtag.
"Just do what you can Ragtag. Just do what you can." Repeated Dx over and over almost wishing Luthwen to be safe.

An hour passed and Luthwen's wounds had stopped bleeding on their own. It was safe to travel without anyone dying. Dx had convinced the rest of First Claw to allow Luthwen to come aboard the Silent Shadow but if Talon Lord Othrim disagreed with it Dx would suffer the worse fate for a Space Marine.

Dx agreed to this but if Othrim did allow Dx and Luthwen aboard the Silent Shadow he would have his own quarters for himself and a small section separate from his which could hold Luthwen.

Both sides agreed and the Thunderhawk took off with Dx keeping Luthwen close by and the Night Lords found the Silent Shadow waiting for them in orbit hidden from the Space Marine on the other side of the planet.

The Bloodied Night part of the fleet was missing but Ariock and the remnants of the Bloodied Night were apparently aboard the Silent Shadow.

"Dx? Why have you not asked for medical attention?" Asked Siddicus as he saw Dx was bleeding at an alarming rate.
"Not important Sid." Spoke Dx out of breathe with a smirk on his face.
"Well it looks pretty serious you've only been sat there a few minutes and it looks like a puddle of blood. You might want to get some medical attention." Spoke Siddicus.
"No Sid.. I'm fin....." Finished Dx as he fell unconscious

"Dx! Wake up! I said wake up!" Came the booming voice.
"Luthwen!? Where is Luthwen?" Said Dx quickly.
"Luthwen? What is a Luthwen? Continued the booming voice.
"Where Luthwen!?" Spoke Dx out of breath.
"Must be going insane from lack of blood. Quickly medical attention needed." Said the booming voice as Dx's conciousness fell away again.

"Damn it Dx! Make sure he stays with us. I still have need of Dx to perform some tasks within the Night Lord ranks. If he dies you die! Understand... UNDERSTAND!" Shouted the booming voice once more.

The last words to slip from Dx's mouth were "Luthwen.... Luthwen?!"

Well that was fun wasn't it..... I will continue it sometime when I get bored in the future.

When I do type again I will say why Ariocky was away being dealt with by the Talon Lord... Just really really can't be arsed right now =P

[Lord Ariok]

ok but i still say i nicked his anti Arioky knife lol also that was an awesome story

[dx144]

Well it doesn't seem like the weapon a Talon Lord would have... A butterknife?

Othrim doesn't butter his own bread! Gets a slave to do it for him and if it is incorrectly buttered then Othrim kills or tells someone else to kill the slave then gets someone else to get him a new slave who should do better at buttering bread.

Thanks for the compliment as well =)
