“Thunderhawk Ultra Primaris to Captain Zedrenael. By Terra, what the hell do you think you’re doing?!”
“We’re killing those damned AA guns and we’re not sending a committee to Macragge about it, brother.”
“The squadron is flying in a formation several square metres too tight as it is. I don’t have the room to start dodging suicidal supersonic Astartes!”
“Believe me, brother, that will not be necessary.”

Before the lead Ultramarine Thunderhawk’s pilot could send a retort, the Captain of the Blood Angels 8th Company closed the vox channel and turned to his battle-brothers in the Storm Eagle gunship’s cargo compartment.
“It seems this next one is going to give our uptight brothers in blue a couple new grey hairs, but I’ll much rather risk scratching the paint of a gunship than let the degenerate savages down there massacre a city of two million. Assault drop pattern Skylance Tertius. We’re going down.”
His brothers needed no persuasion as they fired up their jump pack engines in anticipation.

“By the Blood of Sanguinius!”
