War in the Coxit System Part 5: Three on One
Previous ChapterNext ChapterChrysalis had her hand up as her Changelings and her waited for the moment to strike there targets. A scouting Chaos Space Marine paused along with the heretics feeling as though there were being watched. In the pathway three more heretics sat ready for his command. With a signal the ambush began as three heretics who came to greet the Marine dropped there disguises and opened fire on the Marine along with those in hiding letting loose on them. The Marine didn’t stand a chance and the Heretics were soon meat bits everywhere.
“We should move just incase they come looking for them.” Chrysalis commanded. Ever since they landed on Coxit II they been attacking the Chaos Warband with ambushes usually taking out a few at the time. She didn’t want to risk a direct assault on the Chaos forces as she knew that it would be foolish as she didn’t have the ling power to do so.
In a flash the Changelings took on the form of Humans Cultists and moved out. After a few hours they came across the sounds of a battle being fought. Normally Chrysalis would go the otherway as the Cultists and loyalists fought it out but this time she felt something was off. Something she didn’t expect to find in this universe, Equis Magic.
Looking from the shadows Chrysalis saw as Sororitas and Guardsmen held the line against the cultists and the Chaos Space Marines being thrown out at them. However Chrysalis looked at them and could feel the familiar energy of a Alicorn yet corrupted by something. “Nightmare Moon?” Chrysalis asked finding it hard to imagine that the dark half of Luna was here in this universe.
A Ling turned to her and Chrysalis rolled her eyes, “Fine we’ll help them change into Eldar though it would at least be somewhat believable.” Chrysalis said as in a flash of flames they reappeared looking like Eldar.
“Right flank cover us now!” Nyx screamed over the vox as she tried to corrandit the forces around her. After a few brief skirmishes with Chaos force it seemed that the commanding officer of the guardsmen had unfortunately got his head ripped right off by a foaming heretic. Now Nightmare Moon found herself trying to lead this band of forces on her own while they were being shot down by the forces of the Chaos Warband. What she wouldn’t give to have Space Marines to help her with this mess!
“What in the Emperor!” A Guardsmen said as shots were fired from both behind the Chaos Forces and to the sides.
“Don’t question it push forward while they are temporarily broken! Don’t waste this opportunity!” Nyx screamed over the Vox as the guardsmen and Sororitas fired off there weapons finally in a attacking position while their opponents were forced to defend themselves.
As they pushed the Chaos forces back the Imperial forces could see that it was Eldar who had came to there aid. However Nightmare Moon gave a glare as she could feel the familiar sensation of Equis magics.
“For Kaela Mensha Khaine!” The Farseer screamed as she swung her blade through the helmet of her opponent and pulled it out. Nyx while the guard was to much in the heat of battle to notice, charged up up her sword with her magic to cleave right though another marine.
As the heretics either ran away retreated or were slaughtered the Eldar Farseer herself walked up to greet Nyx, “What no thank you for helping you with them?” The “Farseer” asked mimicing the smug tone of a Eldar. Nyx closed her eyes as she had a very good guess who this really was.
“How about we talk in private about it filthy Xeno? I can hardly begin to wonder how it is you are here on this planet.” Nyx said with a similar smug tone.
‘Ok lets see that’s the last of them… hopefully.’ Discord thought to himself as he put another round into the Possessed Chaos Marine just to be sure. With the storm hanging above them day was about as bright as night and if it wasn’t for the fact he didn’t see the systems star he would have almost mistaken it for morning.
After about a few days of fighting it became clear that this was going to be a drawn out battle for the planet as the two sides reinforced there positions before launching attacks on each other. While the Imperial Guard was making gains at the rate things were going, plus the amount of ammunition they had, which Discord discovered was less then needed and almost wanted to go find the Administrim idiot who fucked up on that so he could kill him for indirectly causing Hersey.
The only reason the Chaos forces haven’t summoned up a greater daemon to aid them was because of the Tatanabus and Discord both keep them at bay otherwise he would just might have to drop his disguise and toss the planet into the sun, ‘That’s looking very tempting at the moment I might add!’ Discord screamed into his mind.
Actually now that he thought about it could he close the warp storm or at least open a way for the Imperial Navy to drop off reinforcements? ‘Discord you there?’ Nightmare Moon asked using the telepathic connection he had set up for both of them.
‘Oh no Discord is off killing ancient Star Gods I’m the Silent King nice to meat you.’ Discord replied in a mocking robotic zombie tone, ‘What is it this time Nightmare?’
‘Oh nothing much, only I just found Queen Chrysalis and her Changelings,’ Nightmare Moon said in a false happy tone, ‘Mind me asking who else did you bring with you? Sombra, the Wendigos? Are we going to find out Tirek has conquered a half the galaxy one of these days?’ Nightmare screamed at him.
‘I told you blame that Equality pseudo-cultist and probably mentally unstable Unicorn!’ Discord yelled back at her as he simply shot the head off a heretic who thought he could attack him from behind.
‘Really and who here tried to force his way out of being returned to Stone because of the the rewrite of time causing him to drag us into this Nightmare of a galaxy?’ Nightmare Moon asked. Discord didn’t comment on this, ‘You know for a eons old Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony you think and act like you are a newborn child!’
‘Anyway your anger aside mind if I speak to Chrysalis now?’ Discord then focused through Nightmare Moon to speak to Chrysalis, ‘Hey undead bug Queen how it…’
‘DISCORD WHAT IN THE NAME OF TARTARUS WERE YOU THINKING!’ Chrysalis screamed into his head causing him to wick. Discord wondered if Chrysalis had developed a hive mind for her species because it felt like millions maybe even billions were screaming at him.
‘Ok you done?’ Discord asked.
‘Yes,’ Chrysalis said satisfied that she got to scream at him.
‘So the Chrysalis how are you dealing with this reality?’ Discord asked the “Undead Bug Queen” as he called her.
‘Let’s see on one hand there is a whole dimension of emotions for my kind to feed on, more than enough so we never starve. On the other hand the “prey” that live in said dimension are a hassle to hunt and contain so we can feed on it,” Discord wanted to laugh at this he could only picture how Chrysalis learned this mess, “Fortunately for me a Eldar Craftworld though we could be of use as cannon fodder against there enemies a few deaths here and there a bit of shapeshifting and pretty soon the whole Craftworld is now a massive hive for my races future.’
‘You know… I am strangely happy that you stole one of there craftworlds… who am I kidding fuck the Space Elves!’ Discord said as he walked back to the outpost. The more Discord learned about the Eldar the more he wanted them all dead. He actually wondered how a species could be this blind to there own arrogance. They caused the birth of a fucking Chaos god because of it! ‘Next time I see a craftworld I’m smashing a moon on it, let’s see your Death god form now with one less Craftworld!’
‘We both heard that.’ Nightmare Moon said.
‘Wow Discord are you ok?’ Chrysalis asked.
“Oh yes perfectly fine I’m just adapting this this world you know.’
‘Ok but the moment you start giving “Gifts” to cults you form on a Monday and demand the souls of your enemies I’m going to hit you got it?’ Nxy said warning him.
‘Don’t worry, I would be like the rest of them, after all conforming to the group is far too Orderly for me to ever do.’
