OOC: sweet, thank you. although garion has no intention of killing rulius (or at least not yet anyways) but only get him in a position to answer some questions, after which i'm sure rulius has an ace or 2 to play in giving the squad a run for their money :P also Garion's current speed is only temporary, as you'll see, for now at least.

as garion moved at a sprint he was surprised that as he reached Raven she hadn't moved, and glancing around he could see that no-one had appeared to move. despite the fury boiling in his body Garion couldn't help but be amazed as he walked around Raven, quite slowly, and facing her again he could see that her eyes had moved slightly to where Garion had been standing, her finger on his bolter trigger also starting to move... IM *so slow... what has happened to me?!*

as he realised that Raven was in fact in the act of firing upon an astartes, with his own weapon no less!, his fury overcame him. seizing her arm holding his bolter by the bicep and forearm he yanked, and was momentarily astonished at how easily the arm separated from her shoulder, and pirouetting towards Rulius, who still had his back to everyone, he used Ravens arm as a club and smashed it into the side of Rulius' torso, dropping the makeshift cudgel after contact. again momentary astonishment gripped Garion as Rulius, oh so slowly, began to move in response to the blow, seeming to begin floating as his feet lost contact with the ground.

turning once again to Raven he could see that the gaping wound he'd left had barely began oozing blood, but part of Garion was aware that the oozing was simply slow-motion gushing. without further wonder at these bizarre events Garion unceremoniously tore off Raven's remaining arm and moving to her side he swept her legs from under her, the speed of the blow alone breaking both legs, and as her legs moved upward and her body was slowly moving to the horizontal Garion threw an almighty overhand blow, again using Raven's arm as a weapon. as the blow struck her in the chest every rib in Raven's torso was shattered, organs were ruptured, and her body now began moving towards the ground. despite how slowly things appeared to be moving Garion was very aware of the relative forces that were being applied, and with a sense of pure hatred his right leg, in a crescent kick, came arcing over Raven's descending body, the heel impacting the very centre of her sternum and driving her into the ground with a force that would kill, outright, an astartes.

Raven's torso was now in a small crater, the force of the impact driving her about 2 inches into the hard floor, while her legs were still making their own descent. looking up he saw that Rulius had only moved about 5 feet, as though he was gently drifting sideways towards the wall. with a feeling of malicious intent, foreign to Garion but he embraced it, he stepped to Raven's airborne feet, and grabbing each ankle and placing a boot on her groin he pulled both from their sockets, and hurled one after the other at Rulius, both connecting and increasing Rulius' velocity, only a minimal increase but the very preposterousness of what Garion did made him smile.

looking to his team-mates he saw that they had all visibly moved, but not much: Tychus had made a single step, Orphius and Anax had almost drawn a weapon, and Darius had ignited his jump pack, the flare of it's ignition almost looking like a solid object. IM *how can i convince them that this is a good thing? that i am still an ally? when i struggle to see it myself!?!*

with an abrupt, jarring sensation, time seemed to commence it's regular flow: Rulius slammed into the wall, Raven's dismembered corpse rapidly emptying of blood from the very large holes her former limbs left, her legs bouncing to a stop by Rulius. what his team-mates saw was Garion become a barely discernible blur that flashed towards Raven and Rulis, Rulius seeming to be invisibly hurtled towards the wall while Raven ... well, while Raven's limbs seemed to explode from her and she plowed into the ground where she was standing, Garion de-blurring beside her and collapsing, barely holding on to conciousness...

"easy Garion, hahaha... i applaud your enthusiasm but take it easy, that was too much too quickly. in time you will be capable of such ability for longer periods of time, but you must learn to pace yourself. you have overextended yourself here and such will leave your body more susceptible to uncontrolled mutation, as well as leaving yourself vulnerable to enemies... like your former team-mates."

with his mind fluttering on the verge of unconciousness Garion thought *if i am a danger to them,which i must surely now be, then i accept my captain's decision if i must die. for i have fulfilled my purpose, carried out my emperor's will, in destroying heretics and saving the lives of my brethren...*

"hahahaa... yes my Garion, at the very least you are very amusing, hahahaa..."
