She ran through the crowded streets with each few meters she turned to see if whatever was following her as she saw the figure pursuing her and hastened her run she darted through the crowd turning her body as her hot breath fuelled her muscles to run faster still, she switched direction down an alley opening up her run as she looked back and saw nothing it seemed she had shook her pursuer as an almighty pain shot through her leg as she fell smashing again the ground as she came crashing to a halt clutching her leg as she cried out in. she suddenly realised what happened looking down the alley way to see nothing but a figure standing on a ledge on the side of the building as the man leapt down crouching down as he hit the floor to cushion his landing and approached her. She lay there and pulled the long dart out of her leg still glaring at the man approaching her, he wore a very light armour but it covered his entire body as dark red robes hung through the joint plates of his armour as they bellowed in the wind giving him and an intimidating appearance, he stopped a few meters from the asari in commando uniform with specks of blood covering her blue cheeks and torso.

"Damn you Cain!" as she spat the words as the figure knelt beside her pulling of his hood which revealed a helmet completely back with only the two eye holes glowing an intense artificial blue

"I didn't want this yilap" as the calm slightly distorted voice came from behind the helmet

"You killed all the huntresses!" she said in pain still clutching her leg

"I only wanted you're employer, you should have signed up somewhere else" he said coldly

"Fuck you Cain!" she screamed

"I take no enjoyment in this yilap, but you would seek me out if I let you go" he spoke almost with a slight sadness lowering his head as she also became solemn

"go, and find peace with your goddess" he spoke as he pushed a blade through her heart as she breathed in sharply and her eyes widened before a tranquil look took its place and he gently lowered her to the ground before closing her eyes.

Cain stood looking down at the 'young' looking asari, a waste he thought she should of stayed on Thesia as he pulled his hood over his helmet and walked away. The Job had been simple enough, a salarian merchant had annoyed some another faction and they wanted him gone. Cain had found out though that this 'merchant' also dealt in slaves, he had no problem with killing but this made the job enjoyable, he had chased Yilap when he had to fight the commando's who attacked him after he had killed the merchant he had dealt with and then had given chase after her. He had chased the salarian all the way to earth humanity's home planet, which included him even though he had been born on Illium. Cain walked back on the crowded street as he walked through the crowd, he was done here he thought time to get off world.

He heard screams and a few people ran past him as a loud siren sounded in sky above him he turned to see a large ship coming down over London in what had seemed only a second shots rang out and the sound explosions went of all around him like a never-ending drum, okay, he though now it's time to get off world!
He ran he looked around as people ran in every direction, civilians didn't have a clue they thought running would help, it wouldn't. He wasn't entirely sure what these were but he had a faint idea, Reapers. He ran towards where the fire was heaviest darting around screaming civilians if he ran to were the fighting was strongest he could find a shop out of here, as he looked left he saw a space port fenced off which was being attacked, he ducked through a hole in the fence and ran up the hill as behind him skyscrapers fell like playing cards, he made his way to the closest hangar to him but an explosion to the left of him sent him flying as he sailed through the air he came to an abrupt stop as he was slammed into the side of a Mako.

"Fuck" he cried out clutching his shoulder as alliance soldiers ran this way and that they were completely oblivious to Cain lying on the ground he looked around him his HUD display busy resetting itself from the knock and as it came back online he saw a ship in the hangar
my ticket out of here hethought smiling slightly as he picked himself off and ran up the ramp that lead into the belly of the ship before diving behind some crates inside the hangar.


it seemed as though a long time had passed sitting behind the crates, he was a little taken a back, due to his work for high classed people throughout the galaxy including Aria t'loak and the shadow broker he was privy to some information that others had no idea about, he didn't know what a reaper looked like but if anything could make it's way through earth's defences it was definitely the reapers.

A pain in his shoulder snapped him out of his thoughts as he looked at it, due to his light armour it allowed to him to move more quickly but also made him susceptible to damage as he saw the piece of metal sticking out his shoulder

The explosion, he thought, the adrenaline must have prevented me from feeling it as he grasped the metal before rigaling it around trying to force it loose, he'd had worse injuries but this still hurt like hell, he yanked it out and blood spurted onto the floor as he groaned through a closed mouth trying to keep quite, the pain died down as he put what medi-gel he had onto the wound.

"looks like we got ourselves a stowaway" as Cain looked up to see a big marine standing over the crate he was behind smiling menacingly

Cain instantly rolled into cover of another box as the marine booted the box away he was bigger than him and he knew if he let this man near him he could do damage, backing up into the openness of the hanger other marines came towards him there weapons trained at him but Cain never let his eyes move away from the big marine.

"stand back, boys" the big marine spoke towards his allies "he's mine"

"I do not wish to fight soldier, but that doesn't mean I won't beat you to death" came the cold voice of Cain through the voice filter in his helmet, some of the soldiers laughed whilst some stood unsure what to make of the threat given by this strange figure and further aimed there gun's towards him

The big marine smiled moving towards him before throwing punches at him, Cain managed to dodge a lot but caught one to his upper torso knocking him backwards. This marine was big but also quite fast as he approached him again Cain went on the offensive sending some punches towards the marines pressure points which barely effected the giant. This continued for about 5 minutes neither of them having the upper hand before Cain sweeped the marines legs knocking him to floor before pulling a knife from his back and pressing it against the soldiers throat. Instantly the soldiers drew their weapons on him.

"I wouldn't do that" said Cain calmly staring at the soldiers individually

"same goes for you" as he heard a female voice behind him before the butt of a gun smashed against his head and he fell onto his back
as the world faded into darkness he saw two figures above him who were then joined by a third

"that was interesting" spoke the third one "welcome to the Normandy" as cain slipped into unconsciousness
