OOC: ok i'm genuinely surprised that garion's still alive. garion wasn't joking - if this happened to any of the team garion would have shot them without missing a beat or waiting for an order :P  and right now garion doesn't have the energy to jog, let alone sprint.

IC: as judgment appeared to be postponed the internal raving quieted suddenly. Garion handed over his flamer without a word of protest and Darius picked up his bolter which stll lay next to Raven's arm. as the team made preparations for a hasty departure Garion got to his feet, again visibly struggling with such a simple action.

as Tychus communicated to the Oblivious Garion spoke to those near him, "the captain is making a mistake. allowing me to live is one thing as i could still accomplish some good here, but i should not be allowed to leave this world alive. doing so would bring shame upon my chapter and what i have done is shameful enough."

"you are a small-minded and short-sighted fool Garion! but i'm somewhat grateful that Tychus is a bigger fool as the longer you live the more you will succumb to my will, and you can argue against his death all you wish but eventually you will kill him! you wont be able not to ..."

Garion looked to Anax and spoke quietly and still in an anguished voice, "do your duty Apothcary! if you cannot kill me now then you are derelict in your purpose as an astartes! and denying me what every astartes is entitled to... an honourable death!" and turning to Orphius and speaking in the same hushed tone, "if he cannot, Darius and Tychus wont, then you must! for now my will appears to still be my own but i cannot say how long that will be. if i can access the same ability i just enacted then at the least i can help ensure that you all escape... but that very ability is why i implore you to kill me now, or at the very least to make sure i do not leave this world alive!"

with communications done and evac orders given the squad move out. but it's clear to the squad that Garion, moving at a fast but very unsteady, shambling and stumbling, walk cannot keep up. even when in the corridor with a wall to help steady him Garion's pace was detrimental to progress.

IM *i have never felt such enervation! what kind of strength is this which leaves you helpless?!*

"as i said Garion you pushed too far too quickly. as such you will suffer from enervation and possibly some mutation beyond my control, and i have plans for my Garion, plans that need a functional astartes and not a mindless spawn, for if you push as far again before growing into your new power then a mindless spawn you will become."

desite the obvious hole Garion was in he burned with zeal and holy purpose for the emperor of humankind, more so than at any time since his encounter with the traitor, the traitor who seemed to be the host for that which was now in Garion. the irony of his circumstances was not lost on Garion.

desperately Garion tried to keep up with the squad, and though he could feel his strength returning it was returning very slowly, and he kept losing ground. as he stumbled along, both hands on the wall to support him, he noticed his hands seemed to be in a great deal of pain, which he attributed to the violence he commited at such a phenomenal speed.
