Prologue

Sol System 2185 - Halifax NS

General Wadup was waiting for his prized student; Commander M. Hansen to arrive as she came into the camp not disappointing him as always. He smiled at her as they saluted knowing she did have some Shepard blood in her, not that it helped her into the N7 program but she was more cautious than her cousin. She always wanted a reason to come back home alive, she was always like that. Commander Hansen was mostly by the book, always had an extra plan up her ass so to speak, but if all fails she made it up as she went. Her record wasn't perfect but in everyone that known her she was as good as her cousin Commander Shepard.

Unlike Shepard she had Raider status, something that hadn't been used in over a hundred years. A status that was thought to be exactly like the Council's Specters, except it was the human version of it. Both a Soldier and an Archaeologist she made many discoveries as she found supporting evidence to Shepard's work. However she, Hackett and her staff decided not to expose until they got more solid evidence of their existence. No-one liked the idea of it but it was the safer solution to inter-galactic panic. Then the Evidence came in a massive scaled war and now everyone was listening to Shepard, and her too.

Her current ongoing investigation was into a Cerberus scientist named Dr. Sheldon Savick. From her reports Savick was planning to make sure the Crucible worked in their favor, which sounded bad either way for everyone. She had been ordered by Hackett to keep it quiet, because she didn't have much evidence supporting the possibility it could be sabotaged. She agreed, as she continued finding ways to help Shepard with the fight against the Reapers.

"General, I'm sure Hackett informed you into my investigation about Dr. Savick." She spoke, as she showed him a scan of the man using her omni-tool. The General recognized the man immediately.

"Commander I just saw this son of a bitch yesterday, he and some Cerberus assholes nearly killed 2 squads, he's at top of Citadel Hill right now from what the scouts are saying."

"I'd like to talk to those soldiers that survived please."

"Go find Mrs. Alenko at the Medic Camp. She will show you to them in the makeshift recovery rooms."

"Thank you sir," she said as she went to the Medical camp, "I'm looking for Mrs. Alenko."

"I'm right here," she said as the Commander looked to see a blue eyed asian woman, almost the same height as herself, "What can I help you with?"

"I'm Commander Melanie Hansen, I'm a Raider."

"Do you have news of my husband or my son?"

"I'm sorry I don't, but I need to talk to the men who were ambushed by those Rogue Cerberus troops."

"I'm afraid most of them aren't able to talk currently, most of them are resting in bad shape but I can tell you what they told me."

"I suppose that's good enough, please tell me and I'll look into finding your loved ones."

"Thank you, Commander..."

An hour later she returned to the camp as the General was trying to come up with a plan, "I remember you said on the Vid-Com you had an idea of reclaiming the Hill."

"Yeah remember the rumored tunnels leading up into the Citadel Hill?"

"Yeah."

"I looked into the archives and I found a map when I was shore leave years ago. I have a scan of it and two tunnels had survived. I sent two of my best to scout them out." She explained, "They just reported that tunnels are big enough to send our men crawling up into the walls inside. It be a bit tricky for the rest of races to come with us but it's the best I got."

"Phew." said the General, relieved. "I was running out of ideas here. If this works, Commander. This be the one for the history books."

She laughed, "Because it was in the history books to begin with, at least the ones that were over 200 years old."

"What intel did you get at the Medic Camp?"

"From what Mrs. Alenko told me, some of it did and didn't surprise me."

"How so?"

"Some of their tech was upgraded with Reaper technology."

"That doesn't sound good."

"Yeah and some prototypes that she described to me using my sketch book that they used, I'm getting one of my guys to take a quick look at them. Hopefully they'll find a weakness that we can work with."

Not long later, one soldier approached her with the General.

"Commander, Collins and Cormier-"

"Sylvianne or Gab?" She asked.

"Gab. He and Collins figured out something together."

"Wonderful, and have you tracked down Mrs. Alenko's Husband or Son?"

"Mrs. Alenko is talking with her son Major K. Alenko on the coms as we speak, he's in London fighting with Commander Shepard and Admiral Anderson."

Commander Hansen started thinking carefully, "Tell Mrs. Alenko she can stay on the Bonaventure to help Sylvianne out with patients. I have a bit of a bad feeling about this plan."

"Yes Ma`am."

"Covering your ass, Commander as always?" asked The General.

"You know me General. We don't exactly have a plan B, so we'd better come up with another plan for getting the hell out of there just in case."

Hours later she emerged from ground using ancient underground tunnels as she saw many dead Cerberus soldiers and more Reapers alive than her actual target. "ATTACK!" She yelled as the troops attacked the enemy. As she fought she noticed they were guarding something... it looked like the beam structure she heard that the Reapers built in London... But it looked smaller, and then she saw him Dr. Savick as he had pushed a foot locker into the beam, then he went in.

"Attack the Reapers and cover my Maritime Ass!" She yelled as she bolted to the beam.

The Soldiers responded as they covered her while she was weaved around everything as she ran then jumped into it...

She saw light and then woke up in the keeper tunnels. "Damnit Savick gotten a head start," she grumbled as she took off her helmet...

Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. November 2015

"Commander Hansen?" Said a voice as I woke up seeing a dark haired bearded man in my face, "That was a nasty hit you took, why don't you go home for some much deserved shore leave?"

"For how long General Wadup?" I groaned as I got up slowly, 'I think I've been playing Mass Effect way too much,' I thought as I remembered my dream, seemed way too real that I was watching myself fight the reapers in Halifax of all places.

"Hansen, you're the Relic Raider aren't you?" He said chuckling, "As long as you want, until the United Nations Council says otherwise."

"Yeah... you're right, sir." I stopped as I tried to remember what hit me in the head, "Sir what hit me to knock me out like that?"

"Some rock that had a electrostatic charge, looked weird so we sent it to the labs. Might be a meteorite. Happened at the same time when some strange phenomenon happened all over the globe looked like the Northern lights or a solar wave all over the atmosphere."

"General you looked that up didn't you?"

"No breaking news, everyone's talking about it."

"I'd rather wait to hear more concrete facts before I jump into anything."

"You always were like that Melanie. You take care now."

"Yep, later."

Sol System 2185- Twenty-four hours after the War

The Normandy's repairs were finished as the Reaper war was over. Kaidan tried to help Liara who was morning Shepard's death pretty hard. He felt a hand on his shoulder as he saw James Vega.

"I guess we should leave her for now, Major L2," suggested Vega, "Finding someone to take over for Shepard isn't going to be easy."

"Maybe not, I'll do it." Said Kaidan finally, "I'm sure she'd want me to see that her work was finished properly."

Kaidan went into in the rec room, debating on playing his favorite game series 'Relic Raider'' on his break. He had already finished the whole collection six times before but he was debating on it again since it was the last game his late Father gave him. Kaidan decided not to play it as he went back to work.

"Kaidan I'm getting some super weird readings coming from our solar system." said Joker from the Coms.

"How weird?" Kaidan replied.

"Like freaky, unexplainable, off the damn charts weird." Replied Joker. Suddenly some sort of space wave hit causing the ship to rock horizontally back to front. "Ok that was close."

"On my way down Joker," he said as he went into the elevator as he suddenly saw Ashley appear beside him who had just said the same thing he just spoke.

"What the hell? LT?" she said.

"Ah Ash it's Major now." he corrected her, suddenly they and the whole crew gotten a headache as they realised what might be going on they were from different yet similar dimensions the only differences were was Commander Shepard, and the outcome of Virmire.

"Well I guess I know how your Migraines feel that was a doozy."

"Ash that was nothing in comparison to the migraines I get."

"Oh well... Is it still ok to refer you as skuttlebutt then?" She teased as Kaidan tried to keep a straight face.

"Yep it's you alright."

"Who else would I be Skuttlebutt?"

"Some things never change." He muttered.

"I heard that," she teased.
