'Hulk Hunt'

Patience, patience was one thing Archons were good at,
especially the Archons of the Bleeding Eye, but my patience
is wearing thin. 6 hours ive waited for my prey, and 6 hours
it has the audacity to be late. It was the perfect plan,
wipe out all of the Great Devourer's Gene Stealers, then
use the Hulk to raid the closest Mon' Kiegh planet.
The Space Marines were a bonus.

They came into orbit of the hulk days after we destroyed
the majority of the nests and began to scan it with there
primitive sensors. It was only a matter of time till they
sent in a party to scout the craft, and we waited for them.
6 hours we've waited when they finally showed themselves, 5
figures lumber into view in there so called terminator
armor, 5 of them for 5 of us, I sneered, the odds are
clearly in my favor. We waited until they were just below
us before we pounced. A simple hand gesture and we descended.

I decended with all 4 of my Incubi guard landing perfectly
next to each one of our targets, and of course there leader
is mine. It was easy to tell which one of these lower
weaklings leads this group based on its ornimentation.
Agonizer in 1 hand my custom Blast Pistol in the other,
i squared off against this giant taking in all of its
ponderous movements before choosing to strike.
It moved swinging its powered blade in my direction, I
sidestepped it easily before swing my Agonizer at the boxy
weapon in its other hand, it shears clean in 2. We square
off again, it cannot defeat me it just doesnt know it yet.

One bodyguard lies dead but the rest have killed there prey,
but i'm still toying with this Mon'kiegh, there are rents in
its plate but no serious damage has been dealt. I move in for
the kill thrusting my bladed Blast Pistol at it aiming for
its weaker gorget armor, it penetrates my blades biting deep.
"I feel your pain" i whisper "It is exquisite" before pulling
the trigger, its head evaporates in a wisp of dark energy.

Composing myself i prepare to wait for the next group.

It's good, but I think you don't put enough place to the thirst. The first paragraph is ok, but maybe add a little more expression of impatience in the others.

There were some compositional errors. You might want to give this a quick proofread before midnight. I highlighted the ones that are fairly straightforward, but any of them that might have been an artistic choice I left alone. Still, you have a full and complete story instead of just a scene, which many flash fiction authors can't accomplish. Kudos!

Nice story, I like the idea of Dark Eldar setting traps in infested hulks! Now where's my Space Hulk expansion...
