Cool. I like. 
And was the God-Emperor even around 40k years ago? I'm afraid I'm not that familiar with Warhammer lore.
But yeah, I think I like Inquisitor Tiburon. Good story.
Statesman said let there be heroes, and there were heroes.
Lord Recluse said let there be villains, and there were villains.
NCsoft said let there be nothing, and there was nothing.
(40k lore says, that the imerials believe he was at the beginning of time, this most likely is not true. but before the Horus Heresy, he faught for 3 thousand some odd years to regain human control of the galexy, and he was around for a long time before that, so its possible but not likly)

Inquisitor Tiburon and the wrong Earth
Short story By R.M.W
Starboard three degrees the voice sounded pitch down one degree
The command deck of the Holy Grace battlecruiser was a large room with all metal walls and no windows. At the center sat two men, one in what was obviously a captains chair the other was set in a pillar of machines and wires with his head in what looked like a cross between a periscope and a helmet, it was this person calling out navigational changes, in almost a mechanical voice. Most of the crew at each of the 20 stations where more machine then human and obviously they had no ability to stand up or move anything except their hands which seemed to fly over controls and switches faster then a person should. In fact the only people on the bridge at the moment that could walk in normal society as human where the captain and five guards in red and black uniforms standing at attention by the main entryway.
The captain was an imposing man with light brown hair whom seems to have seen many years of war. An obvious claw scar ran across the right side of his face, where his artificial eye sits which is curious since his right arm is also artificial.
Though it looked like he could easily be thought of as good looking and kind, he also had the looks of a man whom hasnt smiled a day in his life, and that he has taken the weight of all of mankind on his shoulders.
Transition to real space in T-Minus thirty the navigator called out again
The captain picked up his brandy glass from a side table next to his chair with his left hand and took a small sip. Using his right hand he flipped a switch set in his chair.
By the rights granted me by the Holy Inquisition and the God-Emperor of Man the captain said, I Lord Inquisitor Tiburon of the Ordo Malleus shall lead the prayer of the Transition to real space after saying this he pulled out a small book with a embossed logo of a skull merged with a sprocket and eagle wings on the cover from a panel in the chair with his right hand and started to read with the comm. Channel open Oh, Holy Creator of Man and Machine, with thou great understanding and wisdom we now
T-minus 15 seconds the navigator said in the background.
transition from the evils of the unholy warp
10
and go forth in to the
6
light of order
3
of real space,
1
amen
On the mid point of the word Amen the ship started to shake and buckle as if it where being chewed by an invisible force, every thing seemed to distort the color spectrum seem to bright, and then as quickly as the change and violence came it was gone as if it never had happened.
The Inquisitor took another sip of his brandy and looked at the navigator, while turning off the pickups to the ship wide comm.
Navigator check our position, and communications Hail the Ordo, and get our docking schedules set with Pluto.
Now the trouble with space flight is simple, no matter what the universe has a speed limit, based on the speed of light, and how much power it takes to move matter, you may be able to build a star ship the size of a coin and get it close to the speed of light if it had near infinite power, but and sizable ship would never be able to even come close to that fast, in fact the larger ships would be lucky to get 10% of the speed of light. With this space flight between stars is impossible, unless you find a short cut. There has been many short cuts that have been discovered by many different races, and in many alternative universes, how ever the method invented by humans in the universe the Holy Grace comes from found that you could rip in to the fabric of time and space and travel in what they call the warp or the Immaterium this hellish place has no connection to time and space, and if navigated well can make the impossible travel between the stars fast and mostly reliable. Mostly being the key word.
Lord Inquisitor the navigator said in a mechanical yet nervous tone the stars say we have arrived at Segmenta Solar, Holly terra but
The inquisitor looked at the navigator and put his book back in pocket in the command chair and flicked a switch next to the pocket. At that moment the front walls slid away to reveal a giant window showing the stars.
.. everything is wrong continued the navigator.
What do you mean? Tiburon said with an iron voice that made the guards by the entryway look with fear.
M My lord, its as if the Empire wasnt here the navigator said with much fear I can detect Terra, and Mars, and all the planets, but no sign of the Segmenta Solar fleet, nor the defense grid on any real space traffic, I can only sense a few hundred objects in earth orbit and less then a dozen space ships of note, also the comm. Traffic is on Vox, and the astropath is telling me the universe just went quite
The inquisitor sat back took a sip of his brandy and put his right hand on the hilt of an overly larger hand gun. Double check the stars and check them for stellar drift, see what year this is
After a minute pause the navigator replied the sound of absolute fear could now be heard even through his artificial voice box, plus his body was shaking uncontrollably l..l..lo..ord he started I have double and triple checked and the machine spirit and I am both baffled it seems we are in pre-history, at least forty thousand years as much as fifty thousand years in the past..
Can you navigate us back to the right time? the inquisitor said with a calm almost passive voice
No sir, what has happened is impossible, and I am sure we can never get back, but I think
---Crack---
A loud sound filled the command deck.
Failure is the way of daemons and the warp the inquisitor said holstering his hand gun.
Finishing his brandy he flipped the comm switch again, This is Tiburon he said calmly all crew prepare for dress inspection in the starboard side hangars in 3 hours that is looking at the ships clock 19:00 hours, and would inquisitorial guard company delta prepare for assault launch from my personal shuttle in the port side launch hanger in two hours we have a readiness test to do, they want to see I have kept this ship perfect and the crew sharp. He flipped the switch off. And looked to the guards behind him, well get the combat gear on my shuttle now, we have very little time
After the guards left he got out of his chair and slowly walked to a terminal where the automated crew man sat looking at a screen. He removed his glove from his left hand and put his hand on the screen, the automated crew man said access granted, Lord Inquisitor Tiburon, Ordo Malleus
Start silent protocol zed, alpha, bravo one key nine forty two, three hours he said. He then put his glove back on and walked calmly off the bridge.
A few moments later he was in a large Cabin with velvet wall hangings and a Larger Eagle on the far wall. How glad I am to have only left a change of cloths in this cabin. All of my personal stuff is on my shuttle Tiburon though as he filled a small bag with a few odds and ends.
After a couple of hours he walked out onto a gangway in the Port side launch bay. Where he saw his Black shuttle prepped and ready to go. It was at least 400 long and almost as wide, it could easily be an in system cargo ship if it wasnt for the stealth systems and weapon turrets, such was a personal shuttle of the Ordo Malleus.
Upon entering the shuttle he looked at the 30 well trained soldiers all strapped in the launch seats with there riffles locked in next to them.
Men this is both a glorious and sad day the inquisitor said as he pressed the air lock button sealing the ship for launch, we have arrived at Holy Terra at a time before history, and the Ordo has a standing order, when it comes to the past, there must be no changes made to history he paused and if at all possible help our lord fight the xeno, the daemon, and the mutant. And that is what our mission shall be, find him and help him
The troops all look really shocked and extremely happy. A few even said in small whispers help him, does that mean we get to meet HIM?!!??!
After his short speech and the praises he got, the inquisitor walked to the cockpit and strapped him self the co-pilots seat.
Launch he commanded.
While some may say that the shuttle was and imposing and large craft, no one would deny that an Imperial battlecruiser was a sight to be seen, at almost 4km long it is more a like a small city set on a sea going warship frame then any idea of a starship. With cannons the size of buildings and a cathedral like command tower, the Holy Grace was an impressive sight. When the aft of the warship started to glow like a small sun that soon engulfed the whole battle cruiser, you can understand why the inquisitor shed one solitary tear, and started to prey forgive me oh Emperor for sacrificing twenty thousand loyal and faithful servants of yours
After a few hours the shuttle started in a high orbit around the small blue and white planet.
The inquisitor was impressed at the beauty of the world where Mankind came from.
in my time little world you will be the center of the galaxy but now you are too fragile and must be preserved he whispered looking out the window, as he grabbed a hand held ships comm all hands we will stay in orbit for some time so get comfortable.
Two weeks later standing at the information desk at Atlas in Paragon City RI,
Sorry sir, no one of that name is on our records, are you sure that he is in this city? The clerk said and are you positive he is a Hero?
Yes, if this is where the most powerful people on the Earth are then this is where he must be
Well sorry, may be he changed his name, what are his super powers? the clerk asked
Holding back his rage Tiburon looked at him and slowly asked Who is the most powerful human on earth?
ohh, well thats a good question, lets see, Maybe Statesman, but then there is Lord Recluse, ohh geez Im really not sure how to answer that, there are so many powerful super humans to say he is the one.
Flustered Tiburon looked at the clerk and asked what does one do to become a Hero?
ohh thats easy, go to that desk over there and ask for the hero questionnaire, fill that out and the application then you have to take the hero test, its all easy
Three hours later, at the registration desk. The balding clerk looking over the test sheet, well you barely passed the written, but I need to enter your information in the computer, and well I need to check your name?
I am Lord Inquisitor Sztloth Tiburon of the Ordo Malleus
Well thats a bit to long to enter in the computer as your Hero name, any thing shorter?
Oh, then I am Inquisitor Tiburon.
Ahh good that fits nicely, and lets see you put here youre a good leader and melee fighting expert and you use technology, humm and that you use you personal power armor to fight. Looks up from the desk at the power armor, very nice look, never seen one quite like it, is that gold on the chest piece? the clerk asked as he typed in the word tank in the computer.
It is
Nice, ok here is your temporary license for the physical test, if you go down the Hall way on the left you see the queue for the outbreak quarantine zone so you can be observed and get the permanent license. The clerk finished.
Statesman sat drinking his morning coffee and reading the Paragon Times where he saw on the third page.
Yesterday in Outbreak a man taking the hero test named Inquisitor Tiburon killed over a hundred of the contaminated before the law enforcement personnel took him in to custody and sent him to the Ziggurat, for a 100 counts of manslaughter. Early this morning 30 unknown soldiers with the help of the Arachnos guard broke out Tiburon, police say he is a very dangerous man and civilians if you see him hide right next to the article is his picture taken for the hero ID. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...rk/Tiburon.jpg
