Who are the fans that follow these faithless Khemri?  Those stalwart individuals that have stood by this 2-9 team that promised so much, but delivered so little, during season four.  These fans are truly “the Faithful,” to come out in droves to a promised victory celebration night after night only to be denied by the faithlessness of their beloved.

The Sewer Rats went the distance in the first season five matchup between the Skaven and Khemri.  With perfect weather in the skies the Rats got out to an early lead when Claton ran the field on the first play of the game.  “The undead where still pulling themselves out of the grave and never saw it coming.” Truly that was all the scoring the gutter runners where going to need though they did manage to add insult to injury and stood claw to bone throughout the match.

The Khemri missed a chance to return the favor and tie things up in the first half when Scapula slipped in a pile of sewage deep in Skaven territory turning over the ball which crazy Ivan promptly tossed back down field for their second goal of the night.  Each of the linebackers took devistating hits from the Rat Ogre Big Boy throughout the game.  Kebechsenef took a couple of hard hits and even required the services of the team Igor during the first half.  Many thought the winds of destiny had turned at last when, in the second half, the the mummies finally started getting their line rolling. 

“Just like we practiced boys, that’s what I told ‘em.” acknowledged newly assigned offensive coordinator Carpus Deium.  Carpus was a member of the original bad boys squad that first broke oath during season four.  However, after receiving a niggling injury in only the third game of the season Carpus spent the remainder of the year on the bench.  “I learned a lot about dealing with adversities during my extended recovery.  I only want to contribute to the betterment of the team in any way that I can.  When the genral manager came up with this solution I was pretty leary at first, after all what does I know about scoring pointers?  But then it hit me like a mummies block during the off-season that I was unlikely to be a contributing factor this season anyway so I was like yeah I’ll do it.”

But the Rats saved their hardest hit of the game for last.  With five rats off the pitch and the clock ticking down mid-way thru the second half the Khemri were still looking to get on the board deep in Skaven territory.  Tollund The Man showed nerves of steel as he took the ball into the red zone before he slipped and fell in the end zone.  When the dust settled, the ball lay on the line and “The Man” was out cold. Yarrick the shifty blitzer picked it up tossing a long bomb to Big Boy who plowed thru to the Khemri redzone moving the ball the entire length of the pitch in a single possession. 

With little time on the clock and after a quick huddle the OB pulled out all the stops and even a few banana peels to catch the Rat Ogre and knock him down.  Fortune favored Grauballe Man, but even recovering the ball was not enough as it only seemed to make the ogre mad.  “When that Big Rat jumped up and ran at Gravel I couldn’t bear to look, but neither could I look away either.  I wanted to get out their and help but I had seen that look before and I knew Gravel was in trouble.” stated Skeleton Patella as he recovered from hard hit earlier in the game. 

Following the hit, Big Boy showed the undead what life was like as he skipped over the line and slammed the ball nose down into the endzone.  Big Boy was so fired up that even after putting the game out of reach he was still in a frenzy for the final play of the game hitting Kebechsenef in the back and severely injuring the faithless warrier.

After the game coach Parson let several mostly vailed threats hang in the air during the post game news conference.  “I don’t care what the refs had to say about the legitamacy of that hit.  Where were the refs anyway?  It was a dirty play in my book.  This team of undead Khemri isn’t going anywhere and we have a long memory.  Up three to nothing to hit a guy in the back like that.  The Big Rat better watch where he’s walking because you just don’t walk on a man’s grave as it were.”
