Consus manages to bring down another of the near-suicidal aliens with his bolt pistol fire, though one of them manages to reach him. A great bayonet smashes into his right shoulder, cleaving into the armour and leaving a deep gouge in it – enough that blood and oil begin to slowly trickle out. His combat blade is able to pierce the armour of the creatures, but only with multiple, hard strikes in the softest of points. Thick goblets of hot, boiling blood spray out with every incision.

Gaius lands with a heavy thud, almost crumpling as he crashes into the hard-resin floor, leaving a small crater in his wake. He manages to rush towards the point of the officer’s escape, only to find bolts of sparking white light heading towards him. One of the human officers, clad in light organic armour, stands with her hands outstretched.

Xylius is able to make his way forward until his guns are empty, and finds himself in close quarters with the xenos – who almost tower over him. The savagery of his assault allows him to cut down a slew of alien warriors, but he is almost decapiteated as the now frenzied xenos throw themselves at the Astartes. Bayonets pierce open his armour and shatter his eye-lenses as the creatures desperately try to keep the Astartes from their masters.

Before more Xenos can reach Consus, Drax is able to reach them. The aliens, recognising the danger he poses, move to intercept him.
