A short story about a plan working against all odds.

>Playing Dark Heresy 1st Edition.
>Playing a Noble Assassin from a Rogue Trader family.
>Sent on a mission to recover a specific book that we didn't grab on a different mission, because we missed the chance to grab it amongst other things.
>Skipping over the boring stuff, we get the book and the bitch who took it too.
>We gotta wait for pickup, but the planet is way too dangerous due to a Slaugth being after us.
>Luckily a Rogue Trader's ship is in orbit, use connections to get a pickup. Turns out it's Dad.
>We stash the book and all seems safe.
>One day later, the book's gone.
>We run to the hanger to see a guncutter about to liftoff.
>We try to block the door, it still gets through
>Everyone seems fine with giving up the chase, since only one person on the team can barely pilot spacecraft.
>NotToday.jpg
>Grab the crappy pilot, force them to fly after it.
>Shoot out the engines while avoiding enemy ship fire, board the enemy guncutter with NPC men at arms.
>Fucking Slaugth, TWO OF THEM!
>Avoid the one who comes out to fight, leave the men as distraction.
>Get inside Guncutter, face to face with a Slaugth.
>Do a smart and hit the button that opens the doors.
>Slaugth and myself are sucked into space, it still has the book.
>Shitty pilot (Also the team Psyker) flies to come get me.
>Use grapple gun to grab the book.
>Roll strength test against the Slaugth, who is super fucking strong.
>SLAUGTH FAILS STRENGTH TEST!
>Get the book, shitty pilot manages to not kill me on pickup. Fly back to ship.
>Did all of this while barely passing rolls, high use of fate points, and a bit of determination.
>GM tells me by actually succeeding in all this, I ended up making the party skip a third of the plot he had prepared for the next session.
