Tau vs Necrons (Tau HQ)
The battle was raging, massive explosions every where, bullets fired left and right on the battle field there was a massive Necron army overwhelming the tau's last defense.
The Tau Forces they had been fighting well for hours until the Necrons came in full force. It was ShazO'Kias the commander of the tau on Kronus, he wears a XV22 battle suit with his burst-cannon mini-gun he had with him many of the remaining forces of tau squads of fire warriors and many Kroot packs that had survived the onslaught of the Necrons.
"All squads regroup and hold your ground we can not let a single one of them though we must push them back and win this battle!"said Shas'O Kais
"But commander There are just to many off them and we can barley hold this area!" Says a trooper close by who rises out of cover for second letting loose a few plasma shots form his weapon and then ducking behind cover again
"We can't give up just yet we must wait for reinforcements from the Sgt Cortex, just hold on a little longer Cortex should be close to getting the last of the Civilians off World."
" We will try are best commander!"
the battle continued for what seemed like hour's and with in time the reinforcements arrived with Sgt.Cortex and the many remaining squads under his watch. He was a elite fire warrior with the a upgraded battle suit with a Modified plasma rifle and a power sword he got from a dead imperial Commissar that he found on one of his scouting missions to the space marines base which was nothing but bodies and ash . The reinforcements were around 143 fire warriors,12 XV8 Crisis Battle suits, and 34 XV25 stealth teams members.
"Commander, Sgt.cortex has arrived with the reinforcements"
"Ah the reinforcements good to hear they have arrived ," ShazO'Kias and a few troops make there way to the transports carrying the last of the reinforcements. he goes up to Cortex and they both give a quick salute
"Sgt.Cortex it is good to see you again I was worried when I heard news of necrons being near the evacuation area" said ShazO'Kias as he looked around at the remaining troops.
"Same to you Commander.. and yeah.. lost about a 4th of my troops just to keep them away from the civilian transports leavening Kronus how goes the Battle?"Asked Cortex
"Not good, we have lost so many just to hold these lifeless machines back" Shas'O Kais said with a sigh
"That's not good to hear how many of the Necrons are left?"Asked Cortex with a bit of fear in his tone
"Many more remain, when we kill one they seem just to get back up and keep fighting! there may be no way to stop them. Their Monoliths are too strong and there forces keep coming no matter what I have tried.."Said Shas'O Kais
The battle field was covered in bodies and blood from the fighting, died Tau and Necrons litter the ground all over the city's main defense areas. they all lie on the ground lifeless dead, gone or shut down.
"This war has just been so much at once, we must retreat and leave this planet it is lost.." Cortex said with a sigh
"I know your right but we must..."Shas'O Kais said be fore he was interrupted by a fire warrior
"Incoming!"5 big green bolts hit the tau line killing a many of there troops most tired to jumped away, but only a few were able to and even then they were heavily wounded, many troops watching it happen were horrified at the death of there comrades by such a powerful blast
A blast from the Necron Monoliths got the attention of the two leading officers, The big floating base kept firing over and over again the building behind the two leaders as the build shook leaving big holes in the tau base one after another as it fired with no delay.The Necrons numbers seemed endless and unstoppable and in many of there hearts the tau knew there was no way they could win this battle but none said a word they wish to die in honor, even if most were quiet fearful of the upcoming death.
"Commander we need to get ready and evac! there coming in full force and we don't stand a chance!" cortex shouted as he fired of a few shots at a few necrons that straved too close, taking out a couple of the twisted machines with some well placed shots. a big stray green bolt from a monolith hit a nearby tower and the debris fall from high and smashed into the group crushing tau and necrons alike
"oh by the greater good.. there going to destroy everything..." cortex said in a shocked whisper as he started at the destruction just quickly as has he finished his words and turned around, a bolt of green energy flew by him barley missing him and hit the person behind him, he heard destructive round from the monolith pierce though skin, he quickly turns around and he sees that his commander is on the ground with a huge hole in his chest and he is bleeding profusely.
"Commander!" many troopers surrounded the commander Cortex and a few medical know how's of the group try to find a way to stabilize ShazO wounds but it all seemed imposable.
"..*cough*..Damn I let my guard down for only a second" says ShazO as he try's to get up
Cortex pushes him back down on his back " Commander your Hurt! don't move save your strength. we can try and patch you up" as he says this a green explosion happens to his left, he gets blown back and lands into a nearby wall of the broken tau building he feels sever burning on his left side of his body, even though he is in pain he slowly looks up and what he see horrifies him, he sees the last of his men that were guarding this area so well before falling apart quite quickly as the never ending tide of the necron horde slowly pushed the Tau's last guard line to its limit, left and right he sees tau desperately trying to fight back trying there hardest to keep the area safe but it all seems for not.
Cortex slowly rises and makes his way to ShazO'Kias the pain he feels in his left leg and left arm are agonizing he feels as if there are broken, but he pushes through it, he slowly makes his way to ShazO bullets and bolts are flying past his faces screams of pain and fear but he can barley hear it do to the sound of his heart pumping into his ears as he all but he pushes through to ShazO and falls down to his knees next to him.
"C-Commander.." he is met with only a shallow breath before he react or can say much else he is knocked away very forcefully, he lands his back he lets out a cry of pain from the force of the landing and before he can get up a cold metal foot puts its self on his chest and a cold and hollow voice whispers to him.
"Try...as..you…might...this...fight...was...a…hopeless..endeavor.." Cortex looks up and is met with cold lifeless green eyes staring back at him he try's to get a punch in with his good arm but his efforts are for not his hand is grabbed by a metal one and the his right hand is slowly crushed the bones in his hand breaking his yells of are loud he falls back to the ground and has a chance to see around him, he sees his troops all but a few let alive still fighting, he sees his commander on the ground the same position as him but the necron on ShazO is holding a specter and has a black cape on its back, his eyes widen../" that's a necron lord.."\ he looked back to the necron above him it was a holding weapon he was Familiar with a spear of green energy with a axe blade on the end he looked up and the necron its appearance was like the body of a warriors but it was covered in a silver tone and the body was more unique he knew of the necron it was the same one he fought at the ork stronger not long ago the Pariah necron Nakhtotekh!
"he...he...he.....he.....looks...like…I…got...you...now...Tau.....you.....escaped....me....once...before...but...not...this....time! Nakhtotekh cackles in a twisted soulless glee
"This...is...your...end.....as.....it...should...have....been" Nakhtotekh said in a metallic voice as it razed its weapon up axe side at the ready for a killing blow
"I hope... you... burn for... this you.... soulless monster.."Cortex said through a weak voice
the weapon Connected and all cortex saw was darkness

"I-I'm alive but how? wasn't I just on a battle field? and where am i now?"he looked body to see he was in perfect health and his armor and weapons worked good as new once he checked his weapons he got up and had a look at his surroundings it was dark and filled with strange sounds he tried to use his comm but he was met with nothing but static.
"This is Sgt.Cortex of the fire warrior caster reporting in." he was met with silence
"Shas'UI report!" still nothing
then he remembered see his fellow soldier die one after, his commander bleeding on the ground, the necron that ended his life.
/" it seems I am alive.. but my men the commander.. they all are dead.. how did I survive?'\ he thought to him self sorrow over coming him as he clutched his fist he punched the ground and then let out a sigh
" I need to find food, water and a Shelter soon I need to find out where I am and get in contact with the the Tau.."
He checked his gear, made sure he had every thing and then set off into this new strange world he found himself in
