    The first thing you see are the clouds.

    They loom above you ominously. They are dark and they are thick; their appearance threatens rain, and Tyrfa did not boast idle threats. Grudgingly, you manage to pull yourself up, and you lean against the trench wall. The mud and the fat alien ground worms fail to alarm you - you've been here too long. Far, far too long. You are tired. You realize now, more than ever, that you want to go home. Home was something you seldom thought about, because it was pointless to do so. Only in death does duty end. How long have you been serving the aquila? In that time, what rank have you managed to climb to? And what achievements of yours have been recognized?

    Had it only been two weeks? The time had passed like an eternity. Less than a month ago you had kissed your mother good bye and your father had not had the heart to watch yet another son be taken from him. You are a conscript. Cannon fodder, as your veteran comrades are callous to joke. You are unremarkable in every way. You have done everything you could to survive up to this point, even things you may not be proud of.

    Your hand reaches up to thoughtfully touch your cleanly shaven scalp, but then you pull back your hand in alarm at the copious amounts of dried blood caked upon your cranium. A feeling of dread starts to manifest as you suddenly realize how distant the sounds of war have become. You had taken a hit, and you had been left behind, your unconscious body mistaken as yet another casualty.

    You manage to pull yourself to your feet. Looking out over the lip of the shallow entrenchment that could have been your grave, you are appalled by the sight before you. You had seen death in your short two weeks as an Imperial Guardsman, but never like this. The rain-soaked wasteland that stretched on from the trench was suffocated beneath a layer of the dead. The dead from both sides: your steel-colored great-coated comrades and - what had they called your enemy?

    Failing to see anyone else amongst the living, or at least on two feet, finding someone to help you is out of the question. You remember marching north from a fortress you cannot recall the name of. The path had not been pleasant, and you are not eager to walk it in reverse, but it may be your only chance.

    >>14087990
    With a bit of effort, you manage to pull your battered body up over the lip of the trench, and you wander out amongst the dead. You are suddenly aware of a great pain in your side, so you hold your hand to where it hurts as you walk, but it seems to do little to dull the strain. Carrion birds flutter off as you approach, and the bodies around you move lifelessly as vermin picks at them for a meal. It is quiet. You grow increasingly uncomfortable. You keep an eye open for a vox, but you find nothing. You do manage, however, to find a few spare charge packs for your lasgun. Just as well, you suppose - you've heard getting a clear signal on Tyrfa is next to impossible.

    Consumption is an ongoing process. The act of actually harvesting the world itself generally only happens after all resistance has been eliminated, but carpets of Ripper Swarms and Malantropes will follow in the tracks of Tyranid assault forces as the invasion goes on, consuming the dead and anything else they can get their teeth around.

    You have a lasgun. You had been issued overcharged packs to better punch through the armor of the enemy. You also have a spade for digging trenches, and sharpened for close quarters combat if needed. You also have a basic set of medical supplies. Nothing fancy; you haven't been with your regiment long enough to be trusted with much of the standard kit.

    >>14088105
    You decide to treat your wounds. You find a fallen log to sit down on, and you check your meager amount of medical supplies. There is a brown bottle, a bit of bandage, some cotton swabs, a pair of scissors, a wooden splint, and two rectangular-shaped packages that peel apart to be separate but are currently stuck together. You also spy some ration bars.

    With a bit of water from your canteen, you begin to soak the wound. That makes sense, right? Afterwards, you wet one of the cotton swabs with some disinfectant from the bottle. Feeling satisfied, you cut a length of bandage to wrap around your head. Having done this, you feel a lot better about your predicament. An infection is now the least of your troubles. The pain in your side is still a problem, but you unbutton your greatcoat and lift your tunic to see nothing more than a bruise, likely from when you fell.

    As you stand, you hear a groan of pain from the ground near where you had been sitting. You stop in alarm, momentarily shocked to hear another sign of life.

    You approach slowly, your lasgun rested against your shoulder and pointed in the direction of the fallen xeno. Your aim fidgets just a little, but you keep it steady on the immobile body. You can see immediately that it is in no position to fight. It laid on the ground, periodically attempting to stand, but unable to do so. It's helmet was cracked; it's armor, too, and one of it's arms was mostly gone. It was not long for this world. You are surprised to find that, up close, it is much shorter than you are. You cannot identify any of it's alien equipment, though you do recognize it's weapon lying just out of reach from it. It seems to plead to you, but again, you fail to understand it's wicked alien tongue.

    The alien body tenses up then falls limp as your shot is the shot that finishes it off. You approach the creature's weapon and pick it up. It feels odd in your hands - it feels wrong. You feel as though you are doing something you shouldn't, and so, you lay it back down against the log.

    And then you realize once more that you are not alone. Your eyes scan your surroundings for the source of the observer, and you gasp out loud when you see it. An odd hunched creature, vaguely humanoid, clinging to the hollowed out body of a nearby Leman Russ. It stomps it's feet then howls when it sees you, dropping off the tank on the other side and disappearing. You had heard rumors of strange mutant creatures that lurked in the swamps, but had been told they were completely unfounded. According to rumor, they were not dangerous on their own, but a group of them was a bit to worry about. It was a good there had only been one of them.

    A few moments after the first creature's cry, a few more sounded from the surrounding wasteland, each one closer than the last.

    But this still does not negate the original point

    OP says that he had left a month earlier

    based on the clock the guardsman was running on its a month of travel

    because you cannot measure time between worlds since it is not standardized

    every guardsman measures his service by how long it has been for him not by standardized imperial time(which is rather fucked up)

    You make a beeline straight for the Leman Russ and climb atop it. She had been a beauty in her day, and her chassis was marked with many kills. This was all before something had punched through her, and had taken her crew with it, a bloody hole in the back of the tank. The gunner still remained, however, manning his post even in death. You apologize to his spirit, and push him from his spot, and get behind the machine gun yourself. The weapon wasn't hard to figure out. Your heart beat quickly. This was kill or be killed. You had definitely shot at living things before, but you'd never been the only one shooting. There was nobody to the left or right of you. There was only you.

    The first swamp man scrambled up the remains of a great oak and screamed at you, before the branch he was holding on to fell and he crawled at you without breaking stride. You hold down the trigger, and tear him apart. More join the fray. You do a good job of picking them off - with a weapon like the one you were behind, you didn't have to worry about such things as missing. This is, until, one of them leap on the tank from behind you and grip you by the shoulder, pulling you from the gunner's seat and off the edge of the tank.

    You fall in the mud, with one very wild and hungry mutant above you.

    oh man how will I ever get over the fact that 2 little fuckers think I am ignorant!

    my life is over

    also guard do not recruit that way they receive replacement from local pdf I sight the guants ghost series

    they never just "pick up" random people the population would be conscripted into militia(which is not guard)

    and lastly if they are a recruit from this world then why would warp travel be a factor in their week long basic training?

    Shoot him with our lasgun.
    If we can't shoot him for some reason, chop him to pieces with the shovel.

    See, when you're obviously wrong, and the evidence is against you, no amount of trolling will stop the purity of logic.

    Please continue the quest, this will be a side attraction.

    You leap to your feet in a hurry and shove the abomination as hard as you can in an attempt to put some distance between you. With strength you were not aware you possessed, the creature falls back against the body of the tank. Finally, you are able to get a good look at the creature. You notice how malnourished it seems. You also notice how definitely human it is, or once was. Attempting to raise your lasgun to put the abomination out of it's torment, it lashes back out at you and slaps the weapon from your hands. Grunting a curse, you pull your spade from your belt and shove the sharp end right into the creature's neck. It gargles blood, and when you push further, close to decapitating the beast, it finally falls limp and dies.

    You are alone again. Now would be a good time to leave before more show up.

    Right. Where *can* we go? Go up the Leman Russ again and survey surroundings. Or we can go south, retracing our steps as before.

    Cleaning your spade of the demon's blood, you climb back on top of the tank to get a better view of your surroundings. They're much the same as what you had seen before: the casualties of war, mysteriously untouched. Beyond the snaking trench line you had once protected with your comrades, you see a bit of empty field, scorched by enemy artillery. The field eventually breaks into some wooded swamp, and through that, was the fortress. That was south - also the direction of distant battle.

    Pledge your soul to Tzeentch so you he can help you escape. Or just turn you into a chaos mutant.

    You remember it being quite a distance to the fortress at which you had landed and received your orders. It had been a difficult enough march with your comrades, but alone? The thought was far more intimidating. You climb down the tank and start off in the direction of the swampland.

    You attempt to ease your discomfort by silently reciting prayers and litanies in your head. Among them, 'The Prayer of Safe Return'. It seemed fitting. Thunder claps overhead - the sound was too immediate to be mistaken for distant artillery. As threatened, the sky opened up and rain fell down in force. Tyrfa did not boast idle threats.

    Arguing?
    It was troll-slaying.
    And he has been soundly defeated.
