Mass effect Mokushi intro

Shepherd stared back at ghostly child.

''I will die free.''

The child turned.

''so be it….''

A laugh ran out across the crucible. The child turned suddenly panicking. Then it appeared seemingly out of now where a reaper appeared. Well it look like a reaper but towered over even harbinger it body cover with sighs of damage from countless cycle. Suddenly it spoke with a voice that chilled shepherd to the bone.

''So this is it.''

''the perimeters have….''

An image appeared of a creature clad in darkness. It scuttled along the metal plating on a dozen legs. It scuttled over to the child.

''No the objective have been reset.''

A arm appeared from beneath the darkness it grabbed the image by it neck. A crack ran out like a gunshot and the child vanished. It turned and moved over to the edge before diapering down the central column. Shepherd tried to move but was rotted to the spot. Suddenly all three columns were clouded as the green, red and blue turned black.

Earth.

''Anderson are you seeing this.''

Anderson was seeing this and he could hardly believe his eyes. Harbinger was reeling it was as if some invisible hand was punching it, It casing shattering. Then a roar rang out across the ruined city as one of the reapers legs snap and the reaper fell to the ground.

''Well don't stand there hit it with everything we got.''

Across London and the battle raging above, everyone who could opened fire.

Citadel

Shepherd could see something was happening to the reapers they had stop. As if frozen but it wasn't the crucible it was this thing, at the monument it seemed more concerned with the crucible than shepherd but that could change at any monument. Suddenly a voice crept into shepherd ear.

''Run, you cannot fight it here.''

For some reason shepherd trusted this voice.

''What is it?''

''RUN.''

Suddenly movement came back to shepherd limbs. Looking around shepherd couldn't see anyway of exiting this place.

''Where?''

''RUN.''

Shepherd ran toward the edge of the crucible before staring at the planet below. There was nowhere to go and no way to survive the fall back to the planet. Suddenly the image appeared from the column in the middle. Then the voice spoke again.

''JUMP''

''Are you serious that suicide.''

''is it?''

''I already died once.''

''and she rebuilt you she can do it again, the choice is your pain now or the end of a cycle, do you have nothing worth living for.''

''Mindi.''

Shepherd turned and look down on the planet, earth the cradle of mankind and the thing they been fighting for, Seemed nothing more than a rock hovering in the vastness of space. The crucible was now bathed in a dark liquid emerging from the three tubes.

''why should I trust you?''

''I am just like you.''

''Then show yourself. ''

An image appeared. It was human wearing plate armor the kind you see on the historical recreation vids.

''Do you believe me now.''

Shepherd felt like she knew this thing.

''How do I know you?''

A hiss irrupted from the crucible as black liquid burst thru the metal. The creature rose threw it and step back on crucible. It hissed at shepherd and began scuttling over to her. The knight tuned to shepherd.

''No time, now jump.''

The decision was clear as the creature grew closer, it reached out a skeletal arm which seemed to stretch towards her, Shepherd jump for a monument there was nothing as the battling force of gravity took hold. Shepherd gasp for air but there was only the void then there was blackness.
