Reunited
R&R please :)
It's been a while since my Tomb Raider one-shots and right now I'm obsessed with Mass Effect, so here is my fluffy one shot of Commander Kat Shepard surviving while romanced to Liara T'Soni. Enjoy.
If there are any grammar/spelling mistakes let me know!
Through the rubble of ruins, a gasp echoes through the quietness and the rubble moves slightly.
Commander Kat Shepard shoves the rocks off her as she stumbles to her feet, brown hair sticking to her face and blood gushing from her wounds and gasping for air as if it were her last. Well, it almost was.
Hand pressed firmly against her side wound, Shepard limps away from the ruins and looks at the sky with a wince, her eyes not used to the brightness yet.
Acting on survival skills, Shepard puts two fingers up to her ear to check if her earpiece is still intact. It is.
"Joker," Shepard says her, voice wavering.
First there's static before that familiar voice cracks through, "Commander!?"
"Joker, I need you over here I don't know where I am," Shepard says in a more strong voice.
"Tracking your location now," Joker states, Shepard looks down at her wound, "Gotcha, you're in luck Commander, we're close to your location."
Relief washed over the Commander she finds a piece of sturdy concrete rubble to lean on as she waits. It's not long till she hears the almost silent tell tale sound of the Normandy.
Not a moment later the Normandy comes into view and hovers near the ground, the hatch opens and someone jumps down.
"Shepard!" Liara shouts in glee as she runs over to the battered and bruised Commander.
"Liara," Shepard whispers as the body of her lover collides with her in a firm but gentle embrace.
"I thought we lost you. I thought I lost you," Liara says as a tear trails down her cheek.
"You know me, I want to keep that promise to have little blue babies," Shepard jokes weakly as she returns the embrace, Liara chuckles before letting out a gasp.
"Shepard, you-your bleeding," at the mention of this, Shepard begins to feel faint.
"I feel a little dizzy," Shepard says as she stumbles backwards a bit.
"Don't close your eyes. Ashley! Get down here!" Liara shouts through the ear piece as Shepard collapses into Liara's hold. "Stay with me Shepard. I'm not losing you now. Shepard, Shep- Kat!"
Opening her eyes, the first thing Shepard sees is the worried Asari sitting in the chair next to the Med Lab bed.
"Now there's a sight I want to wake up to every morning," Shepard says, announcing her awakening. Liara doesn't hesitate to grab Shepard into another embrace. "Whoa, easy there."
"How do you do it?" Liara murmurs into Shepard's neck.
"Oh, y'know, I had to get back to you and get my daily trip to the Med Lab," Shepard answers, her voice light. Liara laughs softly as she pulls back before leaning in to peck Shepard on the lips.
"It's good to see you're awake, Commander," Dr Chakwas, "You gave us quite the scare."
"That's my job, save the galaxy, get the woman of my dreams and let you patch me up in the end," Shepard says.
"Your constant jokes will get you in trouble someday," Dr Chakwas states, "and even you won't be able to talk your way out of it."
Looking at Liara, Shepard responds, "If it wasn't for my constant jokes, I wouldn't have gotten what I've been fighting to keep."
