"Is something wrong metal man?" He asked as Macho readied his weapon to shoot Krondo in case he has been infected.

However, even if she stays the hand of the ogre, everyone can see how she grabs the handle of her own bolter. Good trigger discipline means that she won't ever squeeze that finger, and everyone there should understand that this is no threat, but, rather, just a precaution.
"Adept Krondo Sigma. What happened? Speak to me!" Sister Retributor Domitia Jurgena asks.
"See if he can step up to his feet, Macho"

Krondo slowly stood up and corrects himself while rubbing his temple, his metallic tentacle probe slowly receding into the backside of his brain. "I am alright, Sister Jurgena. I had to face Xeno tech countermeasures that tried to scramble the blessed mind of Omnissiah. A momentary obstruction that can easily be confronted and subdued."
He took out his data slate, and another cable came out of his brain to attach to it in order to transfer data. "Foul xenos tech has destroyed itself in order to prevent my probing, but I am sure we can get more cogitators here in the ship to run a thorough inquiry."
Once the data slate had the full data copied, he retraced the cable and slowly walked towards Sister Jurgena, "However my probing into the cogitator has borne fruit. We have the schematic of this xeno ship. Take a look, Sister. (He showed the map of the alien ship) It seems that there were hover bikes kept in the hanger bay which we found empty when we entered here. Could they have been used to scout out? Are the Drukhari already out and raiding the planet? Look at this room, it is probably used to create these foul xenos in this vat pools. And this room seems to be the one where they keep their captives and torture them. It is probable that the scouts are held here. This one is probably the control bridge, and here are the promethium reservoirs. This....this is confusing, someplace these xenos protect with the utmost care. Probing this room resulted in that countermeasure activating. I haven't heard about much, but archives hold heretical technology of the Aeldari race and their mastery of warp travel. How they don't use navigators and the holy light of Astronomicon to traverse the chaotic immaterium. This enigmatic but heretical 'Web ways' as they are called is probably controlled here. But, what's most interesting and downright heretical, but a paramount part of the whole information that I gathered is this one. Log reports of the Xeno ship. Looks like there have been previous reports of this ship landing on Violet Equinox without meeting any form of resistance in the past. How is that possible? It is unlikely that auspex scans won't detect a ship of this size entering the planet's atmosphere. Could it really be that they were purposefully ignored or given permission to land? More questions, but valuable information that we must report to the Reliquant Superior Maria Grace." He finally completed the report and looked at Siste ar Domitia for a response.

Bigby only casually listed tech priest words. Investigating the sniper weapons out of curiosity Bigby talks to himself They either underestimate us. Or scarified. Aeldari are no fools.
When tech priest suggest "Drukhari already out and raiding the planet" he looks at Krondo and nods in an agreement. This is but a decoy. Keep us busy here. he whispers and don't pay attention to the rest of Krondo's monologue.
Rattling double checks his weapon impatiently waiting for group to proceed.

Concerned but obedient, Macho refrains from having to kill Krondo.
"Hover bikes! We could run down the filth quickly with those!" He said.

So what did searching the xenos cogitator do? It told them what they'd already theorised. Sure, the mechanicum adept would suggest that it confirmed a hypothesis, but they had no need to do so. Surely their faith in Him on Terra would be enough to carry the day. And it had been as far as Cassia cared. She'd already thought there'd be no recovering the scouts, and a potential threat to the planet. Any xenos ship was enough to know that.
More than that though, the adept had been tempted by tech heresy. She wasn't surprised, in fact she didn't blame the unit himself. More she blamed their insatiable thirst for knowledge. They knew no better, and couldn't follow the teachings of Zouche the Forgefather; 'knowledge is a secret best kept far from the mind, ignorance therefore is bliss.'
"Where to next, sister?" Cassia addressed Domitia while checking her ammo count. "The less time we spend in this cursed place the better."

In the bowels of the ship the party waits as they decide on their next move. Perhaps they will throw grenades into the next room or perhaps attempt some sabotage of the promethium fuel tanks. Whatever happens next will be up to them because the Drukhari seemingly are not ready to come to where they are now.

Ooc: I don't know about others, but are we absolutely sure that all the members of the scout party are dead? We just saw one. Granted, being captured by Drukhari means that they will torture the heck out of them, but they can also take some back. We should check the holding cells before going out and blowing the ship.

Sister Cassia takes up her banner once more, and presses forward. It's possible others are taking point as well, but since none seem to immediately be following Domitia's orders she sees it as an opportunity to build some more trust in the team after their disagreement before. Thoughts about the damned state of the scouts, and that she has little faith they'll find anything worth saving, is pushed to the back of her mind for the sake of the team.

Sister Olivia vacates her position guarding the corridor and falls in behind Sister Cassia. "Emperor knows what we're going to find left of the scouting party! Brace your self sister."

The door opens into a room of horrors, heretical symbols, decorate the black walls and numerous blinking devices. Three PDF scouts are in thorn covered cages their flack armor ripped by the jagged thorns and clear stains on their trousers. One PDF scout is being forced to stand while a Drukhari male slowly brings a machine down his arm, the skin peeling off to show the muscle underneath. You would think such a process might send them into unconsciousness from the pain and yet, somehow, he is still awake and screaming.
Another scout is in a cage where someone has fused his top half with some sort of primitive haired animal, you think it might be a relative to the animal of sacred Terra known as an Ape. The rest of the scouts are likely in a clear tube which is filled with blood and body parts. Three feminine looking Drukhari are filling glasses from the tube and drinking from them as if it is the finest amasec.
Finally, taking up the center of the room, is a counter to the horror a beautiful and elegant thing made with smooth lines and careful craft. Compared to the horrors of the room this giant robot stands out as almost pristine. The only mar to the creature are red glyphs that have clearly been added on, these glyphs mar the white bone like armor almost as if they are an infection. You note that around the robot is some sort of air distortion perhaps some sort of shield?
