Aloysius hangs back with Ralishgar, guarding him as he discharges his flamer into the horde. A torrent of pyroclastic fire bursts out of the weapon, engulfing everything within is cone-shaped area of effect with fire and burning them to crisp in seconds. As Ralishgar sweeps the flamer back and forth, Aloysius calmly holds his Grav-pistol aloft in one hand and picks off any organisms that make it past Draven, Ragnar, and the flame, with precise shots that fold the beasts into bloody chunks as they leap.

All the while he is doing this, his bionic eye picks up a pattern in the horde. As the Deathwatch marines are carving through them, the numbers of Termagant reinforcements are increasing whilst the Hormagaunts and Rippers are not being replenished. Recognising this, the eye looks futher down into the blackness of the tunnel and sees a large looming shadow a hundred metres down it. Aloysius whips out his Plasma Pistol in his other hand and discharges a single shot at it. Whilst the pistol shot is too inaccurate to hit the beast at such a range, it does achieve the purpose he intended. As the glowing bolt smacks into the wall above the shadow, the flare of its bright glow reveals the Tyranid creature just as it gives a bestial roar.

"Brothers, there is a Tervigon controlling the swarm! We must carve path to it and slay it, otherwise this horde will never cease whilst it is spawning"

To highlight his point, the Tervigon's body convulses and releases another brood of Termagants just as the glow of the plasma fades, leaving the area down the tunnel in darkness once more.
