Heli Dine listen bored to tears as the Council talked to the humans. Heli was very tall, even for a Jian. She could look a Hanar in the, err face. She fingered her new gloves. A Jian had created them. They could scan the sensors in a Jian's hands and show it on their small stones set in it. Right now it was yellow for bored.
Her hair was a brown color and it was cropped short. Except for the front, which covered her right eye. It looked ridiculous that way but hey it was better then everyone knowing she was blind in that eye from a knife that had gotten her right across it. Unlike her fellow Jian people she was scared badly of ships and had to be forced onto one when she first became an Ambassador. If she was on one, it was when she sat on her butt in the cargo hold and didn't come up. Unlike most of her fellow Jian's she longed for war. She had been a general, the highest you could go without being king in Jian social status. But then her father complained about women in the army. Bah.
"Ambassador Heli." Said the Asari Councilor. Heli groaned and got up heading for the platform, ignoring the stares from the humans there. She hated dresses and wore jeans and a t-shirt. Right now it had a large stain on the front from when she was trying to make the flight suit work. She had been called up and still had her goggles on her head and a leather apron tied around her waist.
"Yo." Said Heli nodding to the humans, her gloves turning blue with amusement. The female human smiled back. She had black hair, blue eyes and a large scar on her face. It made Heli feel better about the scar that made her blind.
"Ambassador Heli, Specter Shepard and her crew here are hunting for Saren." Said the Turian. Heli's throat clogged. Saren had been a good friend and was the one that had convinced the king to let her be a soldier. "Due to your experiences with him, we thought it would be good if one of your people went." He continued. Heli's heart rose. She could go back into action. Then she remembered she would be on a ship most of the time. Her heart sank but she longed for battle again and said,
"There is only one person good for this job, a General." There was a murmur of agreement from the crowd of Jian's they were listening in. "Only problem, our last one is in retirement, even though she's only 500." The Council looked alarmed.
"She wont do it?" asked the Salarian. Heli's gloves turned green for laughter. Dummies, did she get those military scars from being so peaceful?
"She'll do it, in fact your looking at her." Heli would have laughed out loud at their faces if she could laugh, priceless. "I will be ready in a bit, Council." She nodded to Shepard, "I'll see you on the ship mama."
Tada! Do you like? I tried to make her have flaws (ship thing brothers idea) Review! Or else.
