"By the emperor that hurts," Ja'ka awoke with a taste of copper in his mouth and a slight head pain.

Then it hit him.

"Spik'la? SPIK'LA!" He saw his brother face first in the earth as he ran over to his brother and flipped him over and he reached for his helmet.

Holding both sides he shook his head slightly.

"Speak brother do you breath?" Nothing came from the marine.

The worried space marine placed his head to his brothers chest.

*bump-bump bump-bump*

Giving a sigh of relief he disconnected his brother's helmet's vac-seal as it gave a hiss and removed the modified helmet from his fellow brother.

With the helmet removed one would expect to see a face of a human but no, under the helmet was what one could consider a dragon from old story from long ago. His face held a shout and fins instead of hair along with fangs (larger than a normal salamander's) the scales that rested on his face where a dark black-purple along with dark sharp green fins that was his 'hair' and a three scars over his eye like their symbol. Ja'ka reached into one of his many leather pockets and pulled out a canteen and poured the water onto the sleeping dragon causing him to shot up with a snarl as his eyes open reviling a pair of red dragon like eyes. On muscle memory Spik'la wrapped his hand around Ja'ka's throat chocking his brother, but he realized who it was and let go.

"Sorry brother where is my helmet?" He asked and his brother handed it to him.

Placing it on the two got up and looked around they seemed to be in some kind of forest, which confused them should they be on a hive world not this place.

"Where are we brother?" Spik'la asked.

"I don't know did the warp send us to Quintus?" The more human space marine asked.

"Nay the trees are too short," Spik'la pointed out.

Then the two saw something they hadn't seen in a long time.

"Brother look," Ja'ka pointed to the sky above them.

Spik'la looked up and his jaw dropped behind his helmet, it was a blue sky with CLOUD!!!

'By Vulkan what is this place?' Spik'la

"Wait where the others?" Ja'ka stated that was when the two looked around and not far from them were their allies and the remaining equipment.

The two went over to their allies to check if they were alright.

"Ugh Wot happen?" Takk asked.

The Ork's helmet opened up showing his ugly mug as he scratched the side of his head in confusion.

"Ah its good to see your still alive Takk," Spik'la stated with a smile.

"yeah boss I'z da strongaz ork ere," Said with a smile.

"Ah will you shut it you-"

"-over sized mushroom," This got a chuckle from the two marines as Takk growled.

"Its seems the twins are still with us," Ja'ka stated as Raa and Che came forth with Dokta.

"A I as well monkeigh," Dokta sated though her vox.

The marine nodded as he turned to the shadowsword and gave it a knock.

"WHO TOUCHED MY BABY!" Drawn popped out of the bear slayer with his trusty auto gun at the ready.

He then lowered it at the sight of his group as he lifted his helmet's face guard to show his bearded face.

"Aw so the marked dragon live to see another day huh lads," The squat said with a grin.

"Yes it seems so," The team's necron appeared from the shadows next to the squat scaring him.

"AHHH don't do that you tin can," The nercon gave a cold laugh at his companions reaction.

"Why it is very...oh whats the word...fun? Yes that's the word I do believe," The skeleton said placing a hand on his chin.

Then coming from behind the shadowsword came sigma holding onto his relic for dear life.

"This unit still functions/relic is safe/query/where is this unit's team location?" He asked.

"We don't know Sigma but we seem to be on some jungle world," Spik'la stated.

"I never seen these trees before I must collect a sample!" The nercorn's hand transformed itself into a tool for collecting samples and gathering data.

"Good Idea Neith maybe you can find out where we are," Dokta nodded in agreement with the spacemarine lieutenant.

As the nercon began to collect a sample from the tree Ja'ka went over to the riptide battle suit to check if Dusk was still alive, he punched in the code to open the battlesuit. With a gust of air the chest opened up to reval the cockpit that held a sleeping tau pilot, the marine them placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Dusk wake up," This caused her to moan and move in her seat.

"Five more cycles papa," Ja'ka rolled his eyes.

"Dusk if you don't wake up Takk will take apart you riptide," This was the thing that snapped her up.

"TAKK TOUCH MY SUIT AND YOUR DEAD!" Her angered face was covered by the stole pilot helmet that imperial knight's wore, she the turned to see the space marine.

"Oh hey Ja'ka whats going on?" She asked.

"Were on a different planet Dusk," This caught her off guard.

"Whhhhhhaaaaaat here get off let me check my scanners," He did so as the mech got up as a small scanner came from the robot's shoulder and spun for a moment as Dusk typed on her keyboard.

"Strange," The tau said.

"What-,"

" -is it Dusk?" Che finished her sister's statement.

"My scans show where no longer- that can't be right," This got the attention of everyone including the nercon who looked away from the sample that he was scanning.

"Dusk?" Spik'la shot out.

"This system the gravity field is all over the place and my scans show their are no stars besides the one that warms this planet," This took the entire group by surprise.

"No stars/statement/that is impossible," the priest well stated.

"Yeah metal 'umie iz right dere should be stars," Takk agreed.

"Well Sigma if you come here maybe you do my job and I can do the research," Dusk said glaring at the priest who did say a word but held the relic closer.

Getting a huff from the tau pilot something then beeped on her control panel.

"Uh-oh,"

"What is it las?" The dwarf asked.

"North we got incoming," As she said that the group got ready for a fight as the two marines grabbed the boltguns, the tau closed her mech and readied its blade, Takk's helm closed as he cocked his arm mounted auto gun and his axe sparked to life, Placing the relic on his belt Sigma whipped out his own axe and a plasma pistol, Neith ready his war scyththe, the eldar ready their blades for blood, and the shadowsword pointed north.

"Keep you claws at the ready mark ones," Spik'la stated.

That is when the bushes moved away raveling some being cloaked in a lab coat, but what was strange was the beings face a purple muzzled face sat on the creatures shoulders. Her skin was covered in a light pure fur along with sleep covered eyes that was under her eyes along with was thought to be hair that was messy that was a darker purple along with a pink strands everywhere and a horn came from her mess of 'hair'. Her eyes were on Spik'la not caring for the others as she showed no fear making the the others confused why this creature hadn't freaked out by their appearance

"It worked," This caused the group to lower their weapons.

Before anyone could say another with the being ran at Spik'la and she knocked the space marine over to his shock as the being hugged him.

"ITSYOUITSYOUITSYOU!"

'What just happened?' the whole group question.

This creature had come out no where and then tackled a space marine before hugging said marine which was extremely hard to do because of their heavy weight and high amounts of strength, but this being did it with out care.

"IVEMISSEDYOUSOMUCH!!!" Spik'la tried to pry off the being but resulted in failure.

Ja'ka ran over to his brother to help him pry off the strange being and to his surprise he couldn't get the female (he assumed for the...assets she had).

"Twilight!" Then the group (besides Spik'la) turned with their weapons to at least over ten other creatures that was standing before them.

Then everyone was shocked at what they were seeing for both sides didn't know what to make of the other and no one did anything until the being from before began to cry.

"Spike I've missed you sooooooooo much,"

The marine stopped and looked down at the creature on his waist, he turned to his brother who though mask had the same look of shock that he hand.

'No has called me that in a long time,'
