Captain Rikhen gripped his bolter, turning to gun down a fresh wave of ork boyz as they crested the small hill to the rear of the Raptors encampment.
"Lord, we are running short of ammunition," Sergeant Balkis voxed. "We are applying fire discipline, but the kine are too numerous."
"Watch your tone Sergeant," Rikhen responded. "Disrespect of the enemy is an affront to the God Emperor. They are numerous, but they are not Astartes. Deploy your scout assault troops, the Raptor's Claw and I will deploy to support them. We will cut the heart from the green-skin scum with a decisive blow."
As the sergeants worked to rapidly redeploy their squads, shouts are heard, as well as a cacophony of machine sounds.......Defkkoptas have hit the assault squads. Rikhen gathers his Vanguard, the Raven's Claw and ascend to the heavens on wings of fire.
"Lord, we can hold no longer. There are 2 neophytes and myself remaining. We will deliver the Emperors judgement, but it is up to you to deliver the final blow," Sergeant Balkis voxed.
As Rikhen and the Rapotr's Claw descended on the Ork Warboss and his retinue of Nobz, Rikhen voxed to any remaining members of his strike team, "Only in death does duty end. For Corax and the God Emperor, we are death!"
