“FRAK!”
Laverna crouched for cover in the warped, smoking carcass of the shuttlecraft. Autogun fire, and las beams, roared all around her, as she stooped down behind a wall of twisted metal, and readied herself for combat.
“FEAST ON THEIR FLESH! GUZZLE THEIR BLOOD!”
Mutants, misshapen and deformed, were pouring over a hellscape of bombed-out rubble, and streaming down on the shuttlecraft’s felled corpse.
A furious blast of Laverna’s rifle sent glitter shells soaring through the air, and smashing into an approaching gang of mutant bandits.
Those who weren’t slaughtered by the initial burst staggered to their knees, their brains wracked with visions so horrific that they defied articulation through language. Every cell in their sickly bodies was gripped with heinous terror, rendering them inoperative.
It wasn’t long before the thundering of gunfire ripped those damned souls to tatters.
Bullets and lasers filled the sky. Gnarled chunks of metal littered the ground. Blood and fire soaked the earth.
“DEATH TO THE SPACE WALKERS! BATHE IN THEIR SUFFERING!”
An enormous, lumbering form came looming out of the horde of charging mutants. This goliath towered above even the renegade astartes, with its cracked grey flesh, and numerous, thrashing limbs. Scraps of metal plate were fastened over its gargantuan form, and an abundance of deep, black eyes were dotted across its monstrous face.
In two of its arms were crude, makeshift blades. In the others, it clutched an enormous heavy stubber, with a lance-like set of barrels, which spewed fourth a storm of shrieking shells.
“YOU’VE COME TO THE WRONG FRAKING PLANET, SPACE WALKERS!” the beast bellowed “ONLY DEATH AWAITS YOU!”
