The Specialist

CHAPTER 6

I woke up with a pain in my back and stood looking around. I looked up with flickering night vision and saw the doorway and nothing in it,I looked at everyone else seeing they were not up yet. I over to Sola and see that his pack has a radio, "I'm sorry Sola, Come in this is Lok-YT-543 and i'm the only one up so far, if anyone is there please respond, I repeat this is Lok-YT-543 and me and my squad are trapped. Come in" I practically yelled into the radio. "Lok we hear you are the rest of them ok?" a male voice came back. "From what I can see at least three didn't survive the fall and many are wounded and who is this?"' I said calmer knowing they knew they were here. "This is the leader of Alpha-1, we hear you use your skewer as protection or loot from others, this is Alpha leader out." I pulled out my knife and tried to wake the others and only got Sola, Daniel, Sao, and Yuranase, but the others were out cold. The ones who didn't make it were identified as Jupita I-4, Pliùtò CCA-5, and Katharine T-22. we sat for a few minutes then I grabbed beatrix and Sola got Saturnus we walked down a hall I saw and after a few we found a large room that was about 60 ft tall and so long I couldn't see the end. Through my flickering night vision I could see what looked like little outcoves for... coffins, there everywhere in the outcoves, they were most likely full of necrons. "Hey Sola I need to use your radio" I said in a whisper "yeah I see them too and yes use it" he said in a whisper as well. "Come in Alpha-1 I have to report something" and before he could respond I said "I found the coffins that hold the necrons. The room is huge and there are so many." I didn't hear anything on the other side of the radio and got worried but before too long "Ok we see where you are and... where not coming for you. The tech-priests found all they wanted to find and are leaving, they said they'll give you 2400 hours to get out but after that were leaving." he said it in an almost sorrowful tone like he didn't want to leave us. "Understood, I'll let you know if something else comes up, Lok out" I said, holding back the urge to yell. By this time Beatrix and Saturnus had woken up. I turn with a look of sorrow "they'll leave us if we don't get out of here in 24 hours, and with this news we must move now and..." suddenly I was grabbed from behind, with the swiftness of a professional I pulled my skewer, a triangular 6" blade with no guard, and stabbed it into the gut of what I can only guess to be a necron, as it fell I turned and stabbed up through the head killing what was indeed a necron, a necron warrior that had been torn in half. Then with a flash of green light it had rolled over and started to move again so I stepped on its neck and stabbed it in the top of its head, It didn't get back up. The necron warrior had nothing on him, we walked to the other end but it took a long time finding more and more bodys and not just necron but guardsmen,space marines, and even commissars. Whatever they were facing were not normal necrons or they were really powerful. We found stairs that lead up to a door and looked like this is where things went, the door was heavy but with five of us on each side we opened it and saw the largest coffin any of us had ever seen. It looked like it could fit two tech-priests. "Sola give me the radio" I say holding out my hand without taking my eyes off the coffin "here" he said handing it to me. "Alpha-1 make sure Timmy is listening ok? There's this huge coffin at the end of the room and it looks like it could hold two entire tech-priests and that's about all that's in here. There's also no exit to this place" I said in a dead tone. "Ok they got all of it and we're coming back in just give us a few and don't touch anything, understand?" he said with a pant as if there were running. "What's in the coffin alpha leader I need to know." I said angry and worried now. "It's the coffin of a-a-a Lokhust Heavy Destroyer and it will evaporate the entire squad and us in seconds!" he yelled. I heard that and started backing up and everyone did the same when we got out of the room we shut the door. After about ten minutes they came up to us and we were resting "hey where's the coffin" I heard Alpha leader ask who I guessed was Sola. When I stood I was right and Sola pointed to the door. When the rest of us stood we opened the door, the tech-priests walked over to it and opened it. Indeed there was a Lokhust Heavy Destroyer and it was in pretty bad shape. Both of the tech-priests simultaneously swung their axes at it and caught it in the head and its eyes light up the second it's hit. In the blink of an eye it's out of the coffin and is charging its weapons and is about to shoot timmy. At this point the two kastelan robots on it one was holding it still as the other was blasting it in the head. Finally the thing died but with a flash of light it was back up and shot the one holding it, killing the robot. It then turned to the other one and shot it,killing it, this thing was too much but that didn't deter me. As I jumped on its back I tried to stab it with my skewer but that didn't work so I told oort to pass me his plasma pistol and he did so. I caught it and super charged it and... BOOM... my arm felt lighter,actually I can't feel my arm at all but I killed it didn't I? THUD
