Chapter 2:

Meanwhile, at the planet Earth, a dark shadow looms over the planet and in space blocking the sun was the Mega Command ship, The Olympus Mons. The largest vessel in the known Galaxy the length of a moon. The flagship of the Illusive Man just looming over the planet as regular Battleships zoom around it not even compared to this ships ultimate size. Even on this flagship was attached of other battleships under it where they could refuel or give fuel to the mega ship. Starfighters flew left and right passed the ship down to earth or to other nearby battleships to enter their hangers if they wanted or to just patrol. Inside the bridge was the Illusive Man sitting on his chair smoking a cigarette looking at the planet Earth.

"Sir." Kai Leng said walking up to the Illusive Man handing him a datapad. The Illusive Man took it looking at it and then gave it back to him. "Good, the city of Iziz is gone and Onderon is ours." He said and inhaled is cigarette. "The moon called Dxun had Mandalorians there, but they seemed to have packed up a long time ago. The sector is ours." Kai Leng said as the Illusive Man just nodded.

Then footsteps were heard approaching them and there was a pale white-skinned man with white hair and no eyebrows but white dots where they should be with a white robe like outfit. "Ah! Illusive Man Senpai!" He said waving and smirking at the Illusive Man. "Ah, Urashiki." The Illusive Man said standing up and shaking his hand looking at Kai Leng. "This is Urashiki, he joined us to take the position of Kylo Ren. He is the best martial artist I ever saw and with incredible power." He said as Urashiki just waved his hand down smirking.

"Now now, you are being too complimentary." Urashiki said and looked to Kai Leng with a grin as Kai Leng just looked at him and then looked at the Illusive Man. "We still can't find the Gorgons." He said to the Illusive Man. "No need to worry. If the day comes they come to get us we will be ready." He said to Kai Leng and inhaled another bit before putting his cigarette out.

The Illusive Man looked over to Matagi, the only one he chose of the other lost daughters of Drayconivous to keep by his side. "We will be ready." The Illusive Man said again while looking at her. Matagi looked at him and kept quiet as usual.

Suddenly a blonde man with combed back hair with a blue streak that went around his head side ways walked in with glasses. "Ah Colress, our lead scientist." The Illusive Man said nodding to him. "Did you get those secret things done?" The Illusive Man asked not to say much in front of the others. "Still a work in progress but rest assured, it will be complete soon enough." Colress said smirking. "Well, this is a wonderful group is it not?" A mysterious voice was said as a man walked up to them.

The man walked to them all putting a fedora hat on his head having quite the attire. "Ardyn Izunia." He said smirking at the men. "You worked for Cyclonis didn't you?" Kai Leng asked. "Did, and now here I am helping the rest of you." He said and looked to the Illusive Man giving him a bow. "Ah! The soon to be conqueror of the Universe! Where is my respect, I should kiss your hand!" He said as the Illusive Man thought for a moment before shaking his head. "Won't be necessary." He said and then looked over to General Hux who was standing there silent. "Tell the fourteenth division to move out to the next sector to begin bombardment." He said as Hux nodded walking over to a console to speak of the orders given to him.

"So what comes next?" Colress asked taking a seat with the others looking at the Illusive Man. "Say aren't you the successor to that one doctor? That scientist uh, I think his name was Vegapunk?" Urashiki asked Colress.

"Indeed I am. Dr. Vegapunk sadly was murdered by his own animal experiments and somehow they got out. However I disagree, I know someone went to kill him and let those animals out to do just that." Colress said to Urashiki. "So what about you?" he asked Urashiki.

"You could say I got my own agenda to being apart of this." He said giving a smirk which made the room go suddenly silent with a bit of question to ask until the Illusive Man sat back down. "Kai Leng." He said. "Yes, sir?" Kai Leng asked looking at the Illusive Man. "How are the rebellions going on Earth?" He asked. "They are still staying strong but we will be sure to wipe out any resistance in the next month." He said to him. "Slow progress?" The Illusive Man asked as Kai Leng just nodded slowly.

"Hux." The Illusive Man said. "How come those rebellions are still active on the planet?" He said as Hux cleared his throat. "The species on Earth are holding up on small farm lands and subway stations on the city parts. They are not giving." He said. "We are looking for the gateway, has our scientists or military found any clue to where it is on Earth?" The Illusive Man asked turning to Colress. "We have idea's by ancient text of old civilizations that may chart clues to where it is located." He said to the Illusive Man as he thought and looked at Earth for a moment.

"We must make humanity the top of all life. To control humanity we can make them stronger than any creature, and to control the non-humans, we can weaken them to their knee's." He said as they all nodded to him. "Dismissed." The Illusive Man said as they made they're way out of the bridge to their duties. Ardyn however remained and walked up behind the Illusive Man. "It's a shame the Gorgon family got away eh? But at least you got the blood of one of them, what was her name again?" Ardyn asked as the Illusive Man tilted his head looking back. "Serenity." He said to him.

Back on the Normandy as it was in hyperspeed heading toward the Vergasso Asteroid belt, Mangle was at the cockpit eating on spice. "Hey babe, isn't that bad for you?" Hans asked. "Shut your fucking mouth." Mangle simply said looking at him. "Ohhh hunny! That will ruin your beautiful looks!" A very light green skinned man with huge muscles and green long hair in a ponytail down said walking in. "Hey, Zarbon." Mangle said.

"Oh my! Who was that sexy man that came in with you all, Oh! came in!" Zarbon said fanning himself. "Uh, my uncle?" Mangle asked. "Oh my, I'd love to be his nephew and suck his-" He was saying until interrupted. "Okay Okay, I get you! But he's with Maychiro." Mangle said to stop Zarbon as Zarbon only sighed. "The thing's I'd let him do to me." Zarbon said tearing up.

"Mangle- uh. Mangle who's this?" Tomoko asked walking in. "Zarbon, he helped me steal some stuff on Onderon." Mangle said. "Right well, hello Mr Zarbon." Tomoko said. "Oh hunny, just Zarbon! And it is quite a pleasure to meet you too. My boss Mangle has told me so much about all of you." Zarbon said as Tomoko blinked. "Boss!?" Tomoko asked in shock. "Yeah, dude I'm his boss." Mangle said. "Why do you want her as your boss!" Tomoko shouted. "Hm, we are approaching the Asteroid belt." Mangle said as the warp drives began to slow down.

The Normandy warped out of hyperspeed and flew toward the nearby large alliance space stations and other facilities orbiting over or on part of asteroids at the vergasso asteroid belt. Two Alliance starfighters flew in to escort them to an open hanger. A few Onderon warships were seen flying alongside Alliance ships. Two Turian warships warped out of hyperspeed along side them radio in to also get hanger acceptance. "I guess we have more allies." Tomoko said as Qrow walked up patting Tomoko's head looking at this outside the window of the cockpit. "I know there are many species and their military's with us but some not so much." Qrow said walking back and to the airlock waiting once they are attached.

As they walked out of the Normandy they were greeted by Admiral Hackett. "Qrow." Hackett said and looked over to Serenity who was walking up beside Qrow. "Did Qrow inform you?" he asked her. "Dr. Mordin did." She said softly as she was thinking heavily about the decision to be a leader. "I need to know now if you are ready for this." He said to her waiting. "I am ready." She said with a sigh and inhaled finally. "I really am ready." She said again as Hackett nodded. "I still want my Uncle, however, to get information like I do." She said as Hackett nodded. "Very well." He then looked over to two engineers. "Get them some supplies." He said and then walked alongside Serenity down the hall of the hanger facility they were in to further toward the command center of the base on the asteroid they were on.

"I saw the reports of Onderon. It was lucky you all made it out in time." He said to her. "Very lucky." She said to him. "I watched as children died." Serenity said gritting her teeth as Hackett patted her shoulder. "Not easy to see no doubt." He told her.

"I also read the reports of General Garza didn't free any orphans or poor people from Iziz, that is her fault, not yours." He told her. "I almost killed her, but Prompto did it for me." She said. "We don't need to say that to the committee." Hackett said to her and then handed her a datafile. "These are lists of possible allies we need." He said.

Serenity took a look at them. "The Crimson Kingdom?" She asked in shock. "I heard rumors they are Tyrants, brutal and they keep to themselves unless they want to take something then they destroy and conquer it." She told him. "That's right." He replied without any worry.

"We have the Azure Clan on this as well to ask for help and the... Momochi?" She asked him. "The Momochi will never join us, they are enemies to the Hutetsuu Clan whom we may ask to help us." She said to him. "I know that too, but imagine the damage they could cause if they are together with our forces." He said. "Or they will be killing each other and us." Serenity replied. "I know you can convince them, I know you can do it." he said to her as Serenity just sighed. "Where is the Crimson Kingdom located?" She asked.

"After the fall of Earth, they went to their second base, which is their Kingdom. The planet Ivarujar." Hackett said. "It's volcanic." Serenity replied. "Yes, it is..." Hackett said with a sigh.

"Well, then we will be ready to go there and speak to them." Serenity said nodding as Hackett gave her a wave as both went different ways. "Tomoko." Serenity said as her sister looked at her. "Tell Mangle to prime up to the planet Ivarujar." She said as Tomoko nodded running off to find Mangle on the station.

"Hey, kid!" Wrex said walking up to Serenity startling her. "Oh Wrex nice to see you!" Serenity said giving a strong handshake to him. "I heard you are putting together an alliance. Since you helped my species we are going to help you. Krogans are back in business." He said pounding his fists together. "Glad to hear it!" Serenity said smiling. "I'm coming with you by the way." He said passing her. "Wait for what?" She asked. "You are going to need someone to kick some ass after all hahaha!" Wrex said walking passed her laughing. "The Normandy is that way Wrex!" Serenity shouted. "Gotcha. I will make myself right at home." He said walking the way she pointed too. "Hope you don't make our ship a battle ground..." She murmured to herself.

"So you're the new leader huh?" Jacob said walking up to Serenity giving her a high five.

"You know it." She said. "I am a bit nervous to lead anyone who wants to come with us to find allies to rebel against Star Cerberus Empire." She said to him.

"It's going to be all good." Jacob said giving her a nod crossing his arms. "I'm going to set myself up at the modification table at the ship alright?" He asked. "Go ahead." She replied. "Just don't blow anything up." She said laughing. "No promises!" He yelled back to her as he kept walking. "Oh and James I think is already on the ship!" He said to her. "Good!" She yelled back heading to the command deck of the facility.

She entered the room where people were sitting typing on terminals and Hackett was there alongside Anderson. "Serenity, you look good. Maybe soft around the edges." Anderson said giving her a handshake. "I and my sisters are all thin and agile. Just how we were born I guess." She said. "Well, you still look capable of lifting a Rhino." He remarked and walked her over to the computer console. "This is the planet you are heading too." He said to her. "I notice that there is a big fleet orbiting the planet."

"That fleet is the Crimson Kingdoms. They are keeping protected incase Star Cerberus Empire attacks." Anderson said.

"They won't stand a chance though if they don't loosen up and accept our help." Hackett said standing up. "Excuse me." he said walking with two other Alliance officers telling him something.

"Sure you can do this?" Anderson asked Serenity. "No, but I am going to, for the sake of our future." She said to him. "That's what I wanted to hear." He said to her.

Suddenly Serenity heard the voice in her mind again. "On a island, you must seek someone out. Someone who is in hiding to help you further." The voice in her head said and disappeared from her mind. Serenity, however, kept her focus on Anderson and then nodded. "Then we move out soon as we can." She said to him. "One more thing." Anderson said to her. "The wookies." He said.

"The wookies what?" Serenity asked confused. "We could use some strong opponents like the Krogan. Imagine the wookies and their brutal strength." He said to her. "But wookies don't tend to be that brutal unless provoked." She said to him. "And what do you think the Star Cerberus Empire will do if they try to control them?" He said to her. "I will see if we can get their support too." She said to him.

"They won't like the idea but we know their history. They are strong warriors and could rip the arms off anyone. That says something." He said to her. Serenity stood up shaking his hand. "Yet Krogan can bash skulls in with their head." She replied and smirked.

"That's true!" One Krogan Soldier said nearby nodding and laughing.

Qrow was nearby kissing on Maychiro who was wearing an Alliance commander uniform. "Glad they gave you this job." Qrow said softly touching her cheeks. "Glad you don't smell of alcohol." She said smirking. "I took a mint before kissing." he said to her smirking back. "Get a room." Serenity said leaned on the wall looking at them with her feet crossed and her arms. "Very funny." Maychiro said wagging her finger and looked at Qrow.

"Like the dyed hair?" She asked as it was pink and she had it in an odd style with a long comb-over that was thin down her face on one side while the rest was pulled back into an odd messy ponytail. "It's punk like. Sexy." Qrow said kissing on her neck as Serenity rolled her eyes.

"Let's not give your niece a show." She said pushing him away softly. "Alright, let's go." He said winking at Maychiro. "I can't go with you." She replied as he looked at her waiting for a reason to why. "Remember I have to stay here and help out around the Alliance here." She said to him as he sighed. "I know it hurts me too." Maychiro told him. "I'll be safe here don't worry." She told him as he nodded.

"Just return in one piece?" She asked him. "If I don't?" He said. "Then I'll find a way to resurrect you and then kill you myself." She laughed. "Deal then!" He said and waved at her. "I'll be fine, probably not in one piece but I'll be back none the less. Just be sure the body bag is nice." He said as she rolled her eyes. "Just please come back safe." She said in a serious tone. "Don't worry I will be back." he said walking off with Serenity.

Serenity looked at her uncle as they walked cocking an eyebrow. "Think we will be safe though? Like all of us?" She asked. "I hope so." He said to her and patted her head. "Your dad would be very proud of you, you being a leader and all." He said to her. She did think of her father a lot. Hearing that just made her even happier thinking about it.

They both walked back into the Normandy seeing everyone was ready that was with them. "Leader." James said saluting her. "At ease everyone, don't get formal." Serenity said giving a nod to James next. "Wheres Kaiden and Garrus?" She asked. "As far as I know? I think helping push back Star Cerberus Empire." He said walking with her to the main hull. "James, I need you to tell Mangle to ready in the next ten minutes into hyperspeed." She said as he nodded going toward the cockpit.

Serenity stood there at the main galactic map in the main hull looking at it. "Heading to Ivarujar." She said to all of her sisters that was currently in the room and through comlink to the others throughout the Normandy running its operations and such. "Let's go gain us some friends and enemies together." She said as Mangle soon warped them into hyperspeed.
