As the marine scanned across the museum, marching with his blade still tightly held, Triest scuttled across the walls, waiting in near-silence. AsTartaros muttered to himself in frustration, gripping his chainsword tightly as he replaced the cartridge within it. This... game ends now. Adjusting his tattered helm and spitting a glob of blood mixed with crushed ceramite onto the marble floor, the Luna Wolf began his hunt for Triest. As Tartaros finally approached the dark, rubble-strewn corner the the Spider had buried himself within, Triest took his chance.
He leaped from the pile of shattered brick and plaster, firing his shotgun as Tartaros turned to face him. Several pellets of shot burrowed their way through the plasteel undercoat of the marine's helm, scraping across his jaw and flesh. As Tartaros stumbled backwards in surprise, Triest took his chance... the Spider butted the Luna Wolf onto the floor in a surprising feat of strength, impaling the ceramite-clad figure's shoulder with one of his sharpened limbs and knocking the Luna Wolf's chainsword onto the floor.
Tartaros struggled against the force of the limb, while Triest raised his shotgun for the killing blow. Eventually, hearing the sound of shells sliding into the barrels, the Luna Wolf became desperate. Pulling and tearing against the limb, with a final pull, he finally managed to tear himself, and the limb, free! As Triest yelped in pain, the marine took his chance. He grasped for his blade and spewed forth a torrent of fire from the cartridge towards the Spider.
As Triest's carapace was set aflame, he panicked, setting off another burst towards the marine, this time burrowing deep into the... things chestplate as it charged towards him, pinning him against the wall by his neck. While the marine grinned under his visor, he spoke in a raspy voice.
"You're a rather slipper one, you know mutant? A sneaky little... nevermind, it's time to end this game of yours."
Tartaros raised his chainsword high into the sky, readying for another strike.
