Chapitre 2: Chapter 0

In a galaxy far far away...

All the force sensitive are currently experiencing a great disturbance on the force.

Not only them but even the people who has little to none midochrolians has felt the disturbance in one way or another.

As if the force has trembled in fear to due something. An event never before seen.

Masters such as Yoda, Ploo Kun, Mace Windu, etc. all immediately conveyed an emergency meeting to discuss the effects this disturbance may have on the galactic theater.

"Sure you felt the disturbance, I am" said Yoda

"The disturbance that only lasted for a fraction of a second has surpassed everything we have all felt before combined!" nodded Ki-Andi-Muni as he reminisced that feeling again.

"The force trembled on something. Whatever caused the force to tremble is something dangerous, we must scour the galaxy to find the reason before something bad happens" said Mace Windu.

"What do you have in mind Mace?" asked Yoda

As they continued to discuss about the a new emerging threat. A new region has suddenly appeared in the Wild space. This new region contains the whole Imperium. From planets to its ships. Everything was transferred to this new region of the Wild space.

Deep under the surface of Terra...

Everything seemed like a dream for the Adeptus Custodes and everyone inside the palace. The body of the Emperor has started glowing then they were sucked by a massive warp storm only to be spit out with their star system intact.

As the Adeptus Custodes slowly stood up from the ground they looked at the golden throne in front of them only to see the body of their beloved Emperor missing. They immediately went into overdrive mode and went to search for the Emperor's body.

They scoured the whole throne room only to find nothing, not even the silhouette of their Emperor. At this moment the whole imperial palace was already made aware of the changes on the Emperor's body. The high lords was also in disarray as they immediately rushed to the throne room only to be stopped by warp storm incident. Roboute Guilliman too has rushsd to the throne room.

As the search was currently happening a lone servant who has just regained consciousness saw someone standing on a balcony with the back turned against him. The rays of the sun obscured his vision and he failed to see who's standing in the distance.

"W-who are you?" questioned the servant as he brushed his eyes with his hands.

The man turned his head to look at the servant on the ground and spoke.

"Me?"

Before the servant can reply a pair of custodians suddenly appeared and looked at the man in the distance with awe as they suddenly kneeled and bowed their heads.

More and more people are rushing to the balcony as they all immediately kneeled and bowed their heads in front of the man.

The lord-general of the Custodes too kneeled in front of the man. Roboute Guilliman was notified of the matter and he immediately sprinted to the said balcony. As he arrived he saw his father's figure standing at the edge of the balcony wearing the robe he has worn for 10 thousand years. His figure is akin to god which made Roboute awed as he struggled to utter words.

"Father..."

The Emperor observed the kneeling men with a face hinding emotions as he motioned for them to stand up.

"My lord, y-you're back..." said an ecclesiarch, his fat figure hidden under his gorgeous looking robe.

"Silence!" commanded the Emperor as unbearable pressure made the ecclesiarch close his mouth and bow down in fear.

"You have strayed from the Imperial truth. Hindered innovation. You made a grim mockery of the supposed Imperial truth!" the voice of the Emperor boomed on the ears of everyone present. Each word sounded like the thunder on the ears of the ecclesiarch.

The Emperor looked at the Lord General Militant waiting as he. motioned for him to speak.

The Lord General Militant gracefully bowed and presented the "achievements" he got with pride, believing that he fulfilled the Emperor's purpose.

"My lord, after 10 thousand years your empire still stood thanks to the sacrifice of billions of your faithful and loyal servants. We held the line waiting for your eventual return." reported the Lord General Militant as he stood straight beaming emotions of proud and glory.

The Emperor just looked at him with disgust as he directly spitted out his next words like something that tastes bad.

"I thought I'll hear something at least good from your mouth but no. You spouted disgusting words out of it." The Captain General of the Custodes motioned for the custodians present to ready their weapons as he immediately predicted the Emperor's next move.

"You fools! You destroyed everything I built! You doomed the whole empire with your actions and decisions! Countless technologies lost because of your foolishness!" lashed out the Emperor in anger as he looked at Lord General militant, the present ecclesiarch, and the high lords in hate.

"My sons, the primarchs, slain in the hands of the Chaos! You killed more of your kind than you managed to do so with the xenos!" the Emperor clenched his hands into a fist trying to control his anger.

"You all have failed me and humanity as a whole. A sin so unforgivable that it rivals that of Horus's betrayal! growled the Emperor in anger.

"My loyal Custodes, this would be my first order to you after 10 thousand years." the custodians and the Captain General stood in attentions waiting for the order of their liege.

"Kill them in the grounds of treachery" the custodians moved with brutal efficiency, cutting down the ecclesiarch, the high lords, and the Lord General Militant in mere seconds.

The wails of shouting for forgiveness soundes for a moment but was quickly eliminated with shot directly to head.

The ecclesiarch managed to crawl to the foot of the Emperor. He kissed the Emperor's foot while praying for forgiveness and salvation.

The Emperor just looked at him with disgust as moved away his foot from the graps of the ecclesiarch. The ecclesiarch manages to shout one last time before being slain by the Captain General's blade.

The blood of the traitors stained the golden armor of the Custodes but after killing the traitors they just stood attentive for the next order of their liege.

"Roboute, I appoint you the Lord General Militant, I need you to reform everything in the empire. Do you accept?" the Emperor looked at Roboute who stood there stupefied.

Roboute quickly regained his thoughts and answered

"As you wish father"

"Very well, go and complete my orders" said the Emperor.

"Father... How about-" Roboute's words were cut short as his father, the Emperor spoke.

"Keep the sword, let that symbolize that I'm and will always be by your side no matter what." this act made Roboute thankful for his father. He bowed and silently left to complete his tasks.

The Emperor turned his head towards the Captain General of the Custodes and asked.

"Captain General, has humanity's finest really has fallen? What about Vulkan? Or Russ?" questioned the Emperor.

The Captain General started to narrate everything regarding the death of the 2 primarchs in full detail to the Emperor.

"Everything must be changed, Captain General, I want the nearest chapter or chapters mobilized. Send the ecclesiarchy and all the holy orders inside the throne room." the Emperor ordered as the Captain General stood there in attention.

"We have an empire to change"
