Editing Angry Marines (section)

== The Guardsman's "Saviors" ==

Guardsman "Church" of the 8th Cadian regiment was stranded with his battalion on an unknown planet surrounded by hordes of Chaos traitors. Church was almost certain he was going to die today. Nevertheless, he stood strong, unshaken by the hordes of the damned. Inspired by the presence of his Commissar, his focus held strong Aim, Fire. Aim, Fire. Aim, Fire. Church's battalion, or what was left of it, had been shooting for hours, burning through the last of their ammo cache in one final defiant stand, they would hold their ground until the last man but he knew their ammunition supplies wouldn't last much longer; in fact, he had estimated that they'd run out half an earth hour ago. The final few dribbles of the cultists charge withered against their las fire, and the battle field fell silent. Another wave would follow soon, spurred on by their chaotic masters; Church doubted they could repel it. He murmured a litany under his breath.

The powerful voice of Commissar Harper Cut through the acrid air. "Guardsmen... Steady your will, though our weapons may fault, our armour may break, and our bones may be split, our hearts will still burn, BURN BRIGHT WITH THE EMPOR..." The sharp crack of a sonic boom followed by a huge concussive impact echoed across the battlefield, Commissar Harper had disappeared, in his place lay a huge yellow gore splattered Space Marine drop pod. seconds passed, several more drop pods hit the surrounding landscape, Finally the doors blew open, sending a second round of jarring reverberations through Church's ears.

All hell broke loose, as towering forms shot from the steel shell at lightning speed; most were howling seemingly random expletives, others were just simply screaming. For a second, Church thought they had been deep-struck by Khornate berzerkers; he savored what he thought would be his final breath and closed his eyes, ready to die... Church would not die this day, he would, however, break his right arm in several places and disintegrate most of his ribs and a good portion of his hips, for he was about to receive a very angry shove from a very angry marine. "OUT OF THE WAY RETARD", one of the marines shoved guardsman Church aside and jumped over the rampart. Church hit the ground with almost as much force as the drop pods, Church was no longer scared, or inspired, he felt nothing but confused. "what in the emperors name was-?" he murmured, swiftly proceeding to pass out.
