by ThisGuy168

Mass effect 2 with my own twist.When the two brothers Alice and Mark Shepard save the galaxy from Saren and the Reapers, they become heroes of the citadel, but when one of them dies from an unknown ship, will the galaxy ever be the same?Or the sudden rumors that she is alive prove truth? May replace Zaeed with an OC.

1. Chapter 1

AN- Hey guys! So this is my first fanfiction that I ever wrote. First of all, I won't be using any DLC, except for armor. As stated in the summary, I want to replace Zaeed for an OC character because I don't know much about Zaeed and I don't like to write about things I don't know. Hope you like it and leave a review and follow if you did.

We are the Shepards and this is our story. I am Lieutenant-Commander Mark Shepard and I have a twin sister, Alice.

We were raised in the farming colony of Mindoir. It was a relatively safe colony and we were happy there.

But one day, Batarian slavers attacked the colony, killed our father and enslaved our mother. We were both 16 years old.

In that day, Alice killed for the first time. That changed her forever and molded her personality.

An Alliance soldier called David Anderson saved us and inspired by that man we enlisted in the army at the age of 18.

I wasn't the strongest man but I was very smart and extensively trained in hacking and using my omni-tool to do damage. I also had biotic implants to make me even stronger.

My sister on the other hand was a powerhouse and trained in weapon handling and in her physical strength.

We had a traumatic mission in Akuze when a tresher maw attack decimated our entire unit. Only we survived.

In 2183, our life had another turn when a mission to recover a Prothean beacon in Eden Prime ended up in the death of a Spectre.

The reason: a turian Spectre called Saren made an alliance with an ancient AI created by the Quarians and with an synthetic race called Reapers, who have the sole objective of wipe out all organic life.

When presented with this evidence, the Council striped Saren o his Spectre status and made us the first human Spectres.

We had a mission, take down Saren, the Geth and the Reapers.

During the mission, we encountered an asari scientist, a krogan bounty hunter, a quarian pilgrim, and two human soldiers.

We became a family during that mission.

We completed that mission, but noy without casualties. Gunnery Chief Ashley Williams sacrificed herself in Virmire and we almost lost Wrex, too.

But we made it. We prevented a Reaper Invasion, defeated Saren, saved the council and elected Anderson the first human Counciler.

Now we are named the Heroes of the Citadel and the galaxy is safe but the question is… for how long?
