WARNING! – This chapter contains Violence and Gore – You have been warned!

In a mist of swirling nebulae and infinite night there was a bright flash that resonated for a distance that would astound many, sixteen ships came through the hole in reality that's creation the flash had signalled; one was an truly gigantic construct of grey metal and prayers that dwarfed even the largest of the other vessels, it's titanic size an indication of it's power, it was a beast of machine and spirit, it's markings were signalling that it was a proud member of the Adeptus Mechanicus.

It leads the small group into the clouds and swirls of gas, providing a light in the dark to its smaller brethren; giving them a small piece of hope in the endless bloodshed and war of the forty first millennium with its awesome scope and the way it exuded power and might; it was there protector against the depressing thought that there was no hope, not for them or their brothers or mothers or sisters or there wives and children, nothing not even a shred, a sight like this changed that; for a short while at least.

The captain of the proud Mars Class Battleship Mechnicum Dominatus saw the awe inspiring clouds of red and green and every other colour as they floated past the ships as they made a quick detour to real space so they could avoid the rather nasty consequences of going through this area of space in the Imatrium, popped Gellar fields and Daemonic attack were all to common.

Many captains are surprised when a Mars Class and twelve cruisers appear to guard three freighters in a relatively calm region of space, they would suspect something like this to be guarding a convoy through Cadia, not The Eastern Fringe but the Adeptus Mechanicus wanted to make a show of force to the local governors and as such they went with shock and awe tactics.

Aboard the command deck of the lead ship of the convoy Astropaths slave away while the Navigator extends his vision over the entire cluster, searching for anything that might signal that the Great Enemy was upon them, when one of the Astropaths eyes caught fire and his head exploded while another was snapped in half by an invisible force while yet another had his head slowly imploded while his screams could be heard over the entire deck; most shuddered when the terrible ordeal was over and the Astropath finally died, many more of them clutched there heads and fell to the floor in what was obviously terrible pain; while the Navigator screamed as his entire body caught fire and he was melted in his chair, helpless.

Behind the nebulae another fleet had appeared, this one of sleek black ships with designs that looked at total odds with the convoy of dull grey triangles and rectangular prisms; they were all at least seven kilometres long; with massive arrays of weapons and sensors, the ships themselves were surrounded by swarms of viscous looking fighters and smaller frigates to complement the fifteen or so capital ships that made up the group.

The sleek black fleet suddenly surged forward towards the unsuspecting and now blind convoy as it floundered without its Astropaths and most of all, its Navigators to guide the ships through the warp. A cloud of bombers came forward from the black fleet and all of a sudden the Mechancium ships were under attack with bombers all over them. Targeting the largest ship the capital ships opened fire with there guns; quickly overwhelming the void shields of the battleship as it was torn to pieces by the titanic firepower of the other fleets guns. One of the cruisers exploded as it came under a swarm of bombers while the frigates blasted another two away into oblivion, while the capital ships massacred the others.

The freighters were targeted with the Ion cannons of the black fleet and as there systems were disabled, a cloud of transports swarmed towards the doomed ships; intending to capture them for there master.

Aboard one of the freighters a group of green recruits to the Imperial Guard stood ready around an airlock, their Commissar with them

"Men of the Imperial Guard; we stand against an unknown enemy who thinks they can defeat the might of the Emperor! We stand as the last line of defence against an unknown menace, we are all that is left, the last Guard, the last thing between them and a band of innocent merchants, we will be stoic until the end, until not one of us draws breath will they pass! For we shall not allow the Heretic, the Mutant or the Xenos to live, for they are the recipients of the Emperors fiery wrath! We will wade in there blood and we will burn there bodies with holy fire! We will break there minds with our faith in Him, for the enemies of Him are burned by faith in Him! Stand firm and do not falter, for this is our last stand! We will stand alone against the Darkness, but we will prevail. FOR WE ARE THE IMPERIAL GUARD! FOR THE EMPEROR! FIGHT UNTILL THE CORRIDORS RUN RED WITH BLOOD AND WE STAND DEFINT AGAINST THE NIGHT ATOP A PILE OF SKULLS! FIGHT FOR THE EMPEROR MEN AND HE WILL SAVE US ALL! FOR THE EMPEROR! The Commissar shouted; filling the men with a fiery resolve to stand firm.

The airlock exploded inwards, spraying a cloud of white hot shrapnel at the squad shredding one of them. A single figure leapt forwards; two brilliant blades, one a cyan color and one bronze sending fear into the hearts of the Guard, they opened fire with there lasguns, the crack of lasguns firing filling the room but the figure moved like a Daemon and what shots it did not doge it deflected with it's dual blades, it went for the Commissar first; an armoured boot smashing into his face and going straight through it in a fountain of gore and brain matter, then it jumped into the middle of the squad; slicing and dicing first a beheading, then it cut a poor Guardsmen's stomach open' it then proceeded to butcher the squad in a frenzy of blood and fire.

"You can come out now, my brave Mandalorians; I've finished with this lot, they were hardly competent enough to be called green recruits, not proper soldiers. Move out and follow me!" The figure shouted in a feminie voice, it resonated with a slightly gleeful tone. Fifteen tall figures walked out of the boarding craft, they were clad in massive suits of powered armour mostly painted a light blue but one was painted yellow, they carried gigantic minigun esque blasters, the shortest among them was above two and a quarter meters tall, they were imposing figures but they followed the woman with no hesitation

"You heard the Mandalore men! Move out!" shouted the one in red armour; the others obeyed instantly and followed the woman up the corridor and into a lift.

On the command deck the last of the Guard assemble around the captain and from a sort of barricade out of anything they could find they were literally the last of the convoy; no one else was left alive. The Mandalorians rushed through the poorly secured doors and opened fire, shredding the guard alive as they walked ever so slowly towards the centre of the of the command deck. The last man alive was a techpreist, the woman walked towards him, black cloak flowing behind her, Daemonic mask on her face, ancient armour a greyish color with bands of red, she reached the man and bent low

"Get me into the ships computer, NOW!" She said; shouting the last part

"You mean the Machine Spirit?" The man asked, confused

"Yes you primitive idiot; AND DO IT QUICKLY!" The woman said; a tone of annoyance entering her voice. The man walked of quickly and the woman followed close behind him

"It does not want to meet you, I'm afraid' the man stammered, the mans eyes flicking noticeably to the woman's gore splattered boot

"IT'S A FRACKING COMPUTER FOR THE SAKE OF THE FORCE; IT DOESN'T WANT ANYTHING!" The woman shouted

"But..." the man was wrenched aside by an invisible force and the woman leaned over the console and started typing, she then took a small datapad out of her belt and did something with it, then the Techpreist shouted

"What are you doing?!"

"Cutting the hard drive out of this computer and putting it onto mine, what does it look like?" The woman shouted back

"But that's impossible!" The man said, indignant

"No it's not, you've only got about five hundred terabytes of data on here, it'll fit easily onto my datapad.' The woman said

The man tried to attack the woman with his servo-arm but the woman simply ut him in half with her blades without looking up.

"And it's done, lay the charges and set the timers to one hour, I want to sure we get out of here in time" The woman said; obviously eager to leave.

The woman and her soldiers walked towards the boarding craft, intent on leaving as fast as they could and getting back to there own ship and watching the stricken freighters explode from the safety and comfort of there own ships. As the Mandalorians followed the woman through the corridors of the ship they all remained constantly on alert, as if they were waiting for something to leap out at them, they all had the safety on there weapons set to off

"Are you sure the senators would approve this, Admiral?" The Mandalorian in red asked

"What they don't know won't hurt them, Jurgan" The woman replied, her voice filled with mirth

"Of course Admiral, things like this happen don't they; after all this is the big bad galaxy" Jurgan said, his voice happy

"Exactly; my old friend, exactly" The woman said, happy that she and her oldest friend could still laugh like they used to, before the war and the death took hold and the Jedi forced her to fight the Darkness and stop the Sith, before Malak and the Star Forge, before the True Sith and the Daemons took there toll on her sanity

"We will win, won't we Revan?" Jurgan asked

"Yes we will, of course we will"

Revan Bloodraven stood in the troop bay of a Rakatan designed boarding ship as it sped away from the freighter that was doomed to be destroyed by a massive blast that would consume it in a fiery inferno of death and destruction, as they flew across the endless night into a swirling nebulae of multicoloured gas that dwarfed even the largest of the ships that inhabited it, there sleek black designs totally at ease with the elegant beauty of the gas clouds and stars.

Many people guess that Revan was from some backwater farm on a backwater world in the outer rim; she reflected that they might be right, for she did not know where she was born; only that she was not human no mater how close she looked to one; her pointed ears, superhuman reflexes and grace even without the aid of the Force and her catlike eyes and features distinguished her, but perhaps it was it her 'sixth sense' that seemed to guide her and warn her whenever danger came knocking.

Revan had been born twenty three standard Coursant years ago; well at least that was when she had been found in the midst of an old battle field that had been the sight of a clash between the Mandalorian armies of Exar Kun and the Jedi led Republic forces, she had been taken in by the Bloodraven clan and trained by the Mandalorians in the way of combat and honour, but then the Jedi came and took her away to teach her the finer points of generalship and the Force, she had meet Malak and Bastila there, they became her friends and companions but then Malak turned and she had only just saved Bastila from falling with him, she had come to thank the Force she had as Bastilas Battle Mediation had saved her and about a million soldiers lives a multitude of times over the past six years.

Their craft had reached Revans capital ship and as they docked Revan relaxed, nothing had happened to them, they hadn't been shot down by a hidden cruiser and killed. She stepped into the airlock with her bodyguard of Bloodravens; they were met by a group of Republic soldiers with a fleet captain in the front; he was about thirty five years old and had dark brown hair, his shoulders were broad and his eyes were blue

"Any survivors; Admiral?" The captain asked

"None Carth; they fought like rabid animals, half of them at least were conscripts" Revan replied

"You wouldn't have got there computer, would you; oh glorious leader?" Said Carth

"Yes Captain I did; how was it from this end" Revan asked

"Oh it was difficult; but we somehow defeated an outnumbered and outgunned force" Carth answered, his voice light

"Charming as always Captain Onasi, anything to report?" Revan asked Carth

"Nothing Admiral, the charges will go off in a few minutes, the men are going to watch the explosion in the starboard viewing gallery, would you care to watch?' He asked

"Only you Carth, only you would ask the Admiral, yes I would Carth" Revan said, a smile on her face

"Thank you Revan, drinks and an explosion; what more could you want?" He asked jokingly

"I don't know, a handsome guy might make it better Carth" She answered

"So I complete the whole thing then?" Carth replied jokingly

"Why yes you do Carth" She said with a laugh

Revan and Carth both stood side by side above the mass of people waiting for the explosion, they did this whenever they blew a ship up with charges, it was a way of keeping relatively sane in times of insanity. Drinks were served and everybody was waiting for it to happen, then it did; a truly gigantic explosion engulfed the three freighters, a massive ball of fire exploded in all directions. The darkness of space was briefly light up by a flash and another wormhole opened, a massive fleet screamed through the connection to the Imaterium and started to form up into a battle formation
