A/N- Hi everyone. This is my first fan fiction so please review politely. I will be basing this story from Mass Effect 1 with what I have played so far in the game and will add more chapters as I progress. I am open to suggestions for new stories, continuations of stories etc. So please feel free to share your thoughts! The only thing I own is my Shepard and my story. Bio Ware owns everything else. Alright, I hope you enjoy!
~Two Roads One Path~
Shelby Shepard and Tali walked around the Citadel talking about Shepard's most recent encounters on Edin Prime.
"Shelby this vision you had could serve as huge evidence against Saren. Why won't you present it to the council?"
Shelby snorted. "And tell them what? That I had bad dream so it just has to mean SOMETHING. Because I think that sounds like 100% believable explanation. "
Shelby sarcastically smirked at Tali. Tali just turned and shook her head in the opposite direction. That was her way of visibly rolling her eyes at Shelby.
"Oh come on Tali. You know the council won't just take someone's word for something like that."
"Wouldn't they at least consider the word of your Embasidor?"
"Nope not even Udina's word would count that much for the council."
"Well, it looks like this will be than you thought, Shelby."
Shelby looked over at Tali. "Yeah. No frickin' kidding."
Just then, pounding footsteps started echoing through a hallway behind the two.
"Commander Shepard! "
Shelby and Tali quickly turned around to find Kaidan running towards Shelby. Tali looked over to Shelby and Shelby said "I have no clue."
"Commander Shepard. I'm glad I caught you!"
Kaidan said only slightly winded. Shelby straightened her posture and went into "commander mode" as some people put it.
"Is something the matter?" Tali asked. Not even acknowledging her Kaidan continued to Shelby.
"No. No. Not really. I don't think so anyway. I was just talking to captain Anderson, commander. He said something about not forgetting a council meeting I think."
Shelby's eyes widened. She dismissed Kaidan and bolted in the other direction towards Citadel Tower with Tali right beside her.
"How in the galaxy do you forget a council meeting Shelby!?" Tali yelled at her.
"I don't know Tali; It's been a strange day!" She yelled back. When they finally reached the bottom of the stairs, her legs burned and she could feel her heart beating in her ears. She looked at Tali and smiled.
"We made it." She huffed.
"Yeah. Barely." Tali huffed right back.
Tali stood straight and looked ahead. Shelby looked up then did the same.
"Ah. Shepard, your barely on time. Come on the meeting has started." Captain Anderson said.
With that they started up the stairs as she turned back to Tali, Tali stiffened up with a happy tone and said,
"Good luck Commander Shepard."
A/N- And that's it for now. Please review! It really is appreciated and helpful!
