There was no answer, but the man's body did fall over as Allenby drew away from it, leaving him face down on the bed. There was something there, just below his hairline, at the base of his skull -- a small, pulsating, segmented organism with a chitinous exoskeleton. It was a sort of pink-ish purple in general color, and seemed to have no visible appendages.
The organism tears free, but only after taking a good chunk of the man's skin with it (good going, Erhart, jeez). It screeches as its removed, attempting to bury its mandibles in Erhart's fist. Upon removal, it was possible to see a series of strange, barbed tendrils on the underside of the creature, which had been buried in its victim. These flailed about, searching for any soft skin in which they might re-root themselves.
Well, were you none too gently squeezing it, Erhart, or were you trying to keep it intact?
In any case, as he began putting pressure on it, it began shrieking even louder before part of it popped and started to ooze green-black ichor all over the place.

"Chitin.... not good. A tyranid bioform, perhaps."

"Xenos...."
He growls, full of contempt and spite.
