Again, not fighting, just a bit of brutality with the servitors.

---

In the distant space stood Kronos IX, the heart of the Tau-Chaos Empire. A chaos cruiser was already on its way in to the Atmosphere.
Five fire warriors stood back as the cruiser came down to land on the pad. Eventually but slowly, the cruiser landed on the pad. Out of the front, Chaos Inquisitor-Lord Mordeus, Master of the Corsairs of Steel, stepped forward from a set of steps leading to the back of the cruiser. The five fire warriors placed their guns on the floor and marched over towards him.
"What’s the situation?" Mordeus asked.
"Seven sections down sir," the first fire warrior said, taking off his helmet. The fire warrior had blue skin with deep red eyes and a deep black burn on the side of his face. "We're expecting Thunderhawks at any minute."
"Right. I want every fire warrior to mount a defence. I’ll visit the council."
"Yes sir." With that, all the five fire warriors walked off.
Mordeus' face turned blank. "Curse you inquisitors of the false emperor," he said, slowly before taking towards a flight of steps.

Cassius sat there on a chair, stripped down to wires and mesh. Around him stood four servitors all armed with bolters.
"So why are you here?" a voice asked. Cassius recognized the voice immediately. It was Captain Severus, the man who, fifteen years ago, sent him on a penance for dishonouring his battle brothers.
"Because my exile has expired," Cassius said, just before going to stand up. One of the servitors stopped him though.
"You are here because Lord Tereus has promoted you and because the Soldiers of Hellar brought you here."
Cassius, at least, managed to smile. "Did he say anything else?"
"You will learn to use all weapons Mankind has ever made. Although some wepaons you may already know how to use, some you may not. And most of these weapons are designated xenoform, so don’t be surprised should you come across them in battle. Now stand."
Cassius got up, again one of the servitors putting him back to the chair. Severus aimed towards the Servitor with a combi-melta and fired, using the bolter function.
One of the servitors flinched.
"The Inquisitor does not allow mistakes in the name of Soreus. Now stand and take his bolter."
Cassius stood this time, yet again a different servitor pushing him down. But this time it was different. Cassius tore off the servitors bionic arm and hit him in the face with it. Then he stamped on the servitor. "The Inquisitor's law is to execute those who disobey his order." Cassius walked towards Severus who was now putting away the combi-melta.
"Cassius, I want you to stay close to me."
"If I can I will, and now is one of those times where I can, so I will."
Severus walked towards a building. He opened the door, which had the Crux Astartes and the Adeptus Mechanicus symbols on them. Cassius followed.
To his surprise, the area was filled with weapons. Bolters, Plasma weapons, combi-weapons, xenoform arms, everything the Imperium had found. Cassius turned seeing a Techmarine in a full servo harness.
"Nice armour," Cassius commented. "So do you need to wear this for training or-"
The techmarine hit Cassius with the bolter.
"What's wrong with everyone these days, is it just because I'm meant to be dead by now after fifteen years of walking and penance? What did I do to Soreus that I didn't repent for?"
"You lived when you disobeyed his service," the Techmarine answered.
"Yes, you see, that was rhetorical." Cassius kicked the ground and walked back to Severus.

Comments welcome, criticism welcomed.

Note: I need help coming up with the name of a Hive fleet. I'm going to include Tyranids at some point.

I've already written Chapter 3. Oh, and I guess the reason why you didn't notice was because I'd called it Chapter 1, not 2.

As for the hive fleet, I can't use Behemoth. Neither can I use Kraken or Leviathan. I won't use Grendel, because that's in the rulebook. Harbinger's in there too, so that's them gone...
