6:30 am Citadel time. Milo Shepard walks through the apartment he shares with his twin sister. Moving through to the kitchen he began to make himself and his sister some breakfast. Today was there first day of official school. Personally Milo couldn't care less about going to school but he promised his father he'd look after his sister after he'd been killed defending the children from batarian slavers on their home planet of Mindoir and in order to do that he'd have to put her through school.

They had moved to the citadel a few months ago in order to allow for Jane to go to a good school and moving to the citadel allowed for Milo to increase his client base. There were a lot more people who wanted to learn how to fight on the citadel then there was in the omega slums. He'd only started accepting training appointments a week ago and he already had a waiting line for his personal training. Milo started training people how to defend themselves on Omega and after saving the money he earned for many years he had enough to move both himself and his sister to the Citadel and put both of them through Normandy high school.

Jane Shepard woke to the smell of cooking bacon. She begins to get dressed as her pet Ratchet climbed upon her bed. "Morning' Ratchet" She says with a grin across her face. It was the happiest day of her life when her brother had told her that he'd got her set up on the citadel and even into college. They'd been living rough on Omega since there home was invaded by Batarian pirates. Her brother had protected her and even started up a small business to support the two of them. Milo had even cut a deal with Aria, who ran Omega. She gave them a small room in afterlife to live out of if he trained some her men in hand to hand combat for free. That was when Milo had discovered that Jane had some pretty powerful biotics.

Jane got dressed and prepared for the day; she packed her bag full of notebooks, pens and pencils and a small box in order to store her lunch. Milo said that they'd go to a café on the way to the school in order to get themselves some lunch. When Jane walked into the Kitchen and couldn't help but smile, her brother had made the two of the bacon and eggs.

"So how'd you sleep sis?" Milo asked while placing the two plates of breakfast on the counter top. The apartment Milo owned was very small and didn't have a dining room. It consists of two bedrooms, a kitchen and a toilet. Milo had got the apartment cheap due to it not having a lounge or dining room. He didn't think that either of them needed one. They used the Kitchen space to catch up with each other while eating and their rooms for any private business.

"Like a baby, it so nice to had a proper mattress again" Jane said giving her brother a loving smile.

"Good, good. Now eat up sis, we shouldn't be late for college on our first day"

The two at their portions of bacon and eggs, Milo then quickly washed the plates they'd eaten off and the pan he'd cooked in before leaving them to drip-dry while they were at school. After which they left the apartment locked the door and got into Milo's car. Milo's car wasn't anything special. It was rather small with two front seats and two very small back seats, along with a small trunk; yet it still took Milo a year of saving money in order to purchase it, due to them basically living out of a shoe box on Omega they found the car more than spacious for their moving needs.

The two sat in silence while driving to school, Milo liked to sit in silence from time to time. Jane didn't want to interrupt her brother while he was concentrating on driving, not to mention she was feeling very nervous going to her first proper school. There had been a doctor that Jane studied under at Omega called Malon. She had learnt that he had worked with some sort of high ranking Salarian scientist group that created or edited the genophage. A bioweapon that stopped the Krogan during the Krogan rebellions. She knew that it wasn't right to have neutered the Krogan due to them winning the war but she also knew that Malon was trying everything he could to put it right while at the same time teaching her medicine. She originally only learnt the basics with him in order to get out of the slums every once in a while; however she soon found herself fascinated with medicine and wanted to help people. She eventually wanted to become a proper doctor but to do that she had to do well at this school. That pressure and the stress of not wanting to let her brother down after he had sacrificed everything to get her to the school made her very nervous.

Milo noticed that his sister looked nervous and he couldn't help but feel happy for her. He didn't care what he sacrificed, seeing his sister as happy and nervous as she was as he drove her to their new school made him very happy. "What's the matter sis?"

"What you mean?"

"Jane, the only time you looked as scared as you do now is when we first met Aria"

"No I'm just nervous, the last time we went to an official school was on Mindoir"

"I know sis, we've had it rough. It could have been worse though. Omega wasn't that bad. Aria was actually rather welcoming and we made due"

"I know but-"

"I'm sure you'll make a lot of new friends here. It's got one of the best biotic teachers in the whole citadel, in sure you'll love it"

Jane was going to respond but stopped when Milo's omni tool erupted. He was getting many more training booking sine they moved to the citadel. Jane couldn't figure out why business was better on the citadel when omega was such a dangerous place, before Aria had given them a lace to stay they found themselves getting into fights for food or space nearly every day, why did people on the citadel want to learn how to fight. What was dangerous about this place? Omega didn't even have a police force let alone its own fleet. Milo took the call and gave the client an appointment as he parked in the schools car park. It was mostly empty as most of the kids at school got the bus or walked. Milo and Jane lived to far away from even a bus route and so had no choice but to drive themselves.

The car sat down and Milo turned the ignition off. They got out and looked at each of their timetables. "So what have you got first period sis?"

"Uhh, Biology in room B012. Seems to be with a mister Krios"

"Yeah, I got biology with him third period."

"So what you got now?"

"I've got Math with Professor Solus, Room C137"

"Well, we had better be off then, I'll see you by the fountain at break?" said Jane in her usual happy tone

"Yeah, hopefully you'll get a few friends by then" Relied Milo in his usual bored tone of voice. He was happy when around family and friends but he found it very hard to ever get close to someone. Which usually meant spending most of his time alone in the corner of classes.
