Shepard stumbled slightly as the explosion from the gunship rocked the apartment her team was standing in. She started to smile at its destruction before remembering what the gunship had done moments before. Turing from the window she spotted a large armored figure lying face down in a pool of blue blood that was spreading rapidly.
"Garrus," Shepard yelled as she vaulted over the couch to kneel down beside the turian. She moved him onto his back trying to see the damage. "Come on Garrus, just hold on." At those words, his eyes snapped open glancing around wildly while tightening his grip on the barrel of his rifle.
"He's not gunna make it," Zaeed said. Shepard ground her teeth trying not to snap back at Zaeed. Instead, she brought up her Omni-tool.
"Joker, we need an evac quickly. Also, tell Chakwas to get ready for a severely injured turian," She said into the device.
"Copy that Commander Evac coming as fast as they can," Joker's voice said. "And Chakwas has been informed. Another turian Commander, didn't we learn enough about them with Garrus.
"It is Garrus Joker."
There was silence on the other end of the line for a while till Joker spoke again, "Evac in fiv… utes." There was a large amount of static drowning out Jokers' voice. "Com…do…opy."
"Joker I'm here," Shepard stabbing furiously at her Omni-tool trying to keep the signal. "What's going on?" Garrus groaned again this time half way through the groan turned into a gurgle. "Hold on Garrus evac's coming."
"Uh, Commander, you might want to come see this," Jacob said from behind her. She stood up and walked over to the balcony that overlooked the inside of the apartment. A single strand of lightning extended from the ceiling to the floor.
"What the-," Shepard started when the beam split into multiple beams with a loud pop causing them to all flinch. "Jacob, stay with Garrus and try to keep him stable. Zaeed and I are going to check this out." Jacob nodded in Shepard's direction and turn away from the balcony while Shepard and Zaeed approached the hallway to the right of them. As they approached the stairs a purple sphere expand in the middle of the beams. Before either of them could reach the bottom of the stairs a large gust of wind blew them off their feet and they feel down the last few flights of stairs. When Shepard got back on her feet the orb and lightning were gone replaced by a large black circle on the floor.
In the middle of the circle, a man was lying face up breaths short and ragged. Shepard saw that his robes were torn in many places revealing long gashes and burn holes. The mask he was wearing was smoking slightly. She touched the surface of the mask lightly and immediately removed then as she was burned from the touch. "Commander Shepard, do you copy," said a voice coming out of her Omni-tool. She jumped slightly at the noise then composed herself and spoke.
"I'm here Joker, tell Chakwas to get ready for another patient. Human this time." Jokers reply was drowned out by the sound of shuttle approaching the apartment. "Zaeed, come and help me carry him up there," Shepard said gesturing towards the man lying on the floor. They picked him up carried him upstairs.
