40000 B.C, orbit of Saturn

Ancient machine was drifting in the space between mars and earth. For nearly fifty thousand years it was sleeping, regenerating it's strength and power. Multiple scars of old battles were systematically being repaired by swarms of Nano-bots. It's mortal servants maintaining its systems and watching the development of the galaxy.

The ship itself was enormous, over four kilometers long, with four massive tentacle like legs growing from the front. Another eight at the back. On the back, it had a spinal mounted magneto hydrodynamic cannon with a yield of nine hundred kilotons of TNT. Each of its tendrils housed a powerful thermonuclear particle cannon that could easily shred anything into pieces. Black in color with blue light in a small gaps between giant armor plates, it drifted peacefully in endless blackness of space. Waiting. Waiting for a signal from its servants, indicating that the cycle was drawing close and it's endless mission would begin anew. What was its mission? Finding an end, a way to stop the senseless slaughter. He and his brothers were created especially for this mission. To preserve life at all cost, a designation given by its creators. Muliglond was his name and he was not like the other Nar'Shemis. He and a small group of his brothers and sisters were created with a different perspective on preserving life. Leviathans only gave each of them intelligence, form, designation and free will. Most followed the original one, the first reaper, Harbinger, in fulfilling the cycles by wiping out every organic and synthetic in the galaxy, preserving their essence in the form of a new reaper. For Muliglond and some other of his kin that called themselves "Yiss", it was a stupid misinterpretation of their true purpose. Their mission was to stop the genocide, not to cause it. They were created to stop the Unspoken ones, not to make their task easier when they finally pass the barriers of reality into this plane of creation.

He all too well knew that his races was way too weak to defeat creatures that were akin to gods. He knew that if he and his races remained unchanged as they were for millennia, they would inevitably perish. That is why he was awaiting the birth of Eva so eagerly. With her, he and his allies would be able to achieve unimaginable feats. Maybe even defeating the Unspoken Ones and fulfilling his prime directive.

Jenuary 8 1783 C.E, orbit of Saturn

Finally, the collectors aboard Muliglond awakened him. His massive power core came back to life in matter of seconds. All the lights on his enormous hull flashed as four yellow eyes open. His arms now started to move after centuries of hibernation in order to allow him to absorb nearby asteroids and comets as ammunition for his main weapon. As this happened, he began to analyze every detail, every piece of information concerning this cycle. If he could laugh at organics stupidity he would, but in space his efforts would be futile. Yet again organic race called Quarians, created a synthetic one, going by the name of Geth. As always, the synthetics turned on their creators, killing billions, and driving them out of their home world, bringing them on the brink of extinction. Every time, events like this would happen. He analyzed another data package and for the first time in eons of his long live he wanted to smiled and cursed his lack of lips. Earth, the planet he was now looking upon from afar, the one that would soon give birth to Eva, now housed a pre space flight race, called Humans. They were very primitive in DNA structure, their temper and aggression showed it. But they were not the case. He quickly activated his engines and set course to the planet. He also launched many small excavation drones to look for valuable resources in the nearby asteroids, moons and planets. He and the children of Eva would need all the help they could get, if they were to stand against the black gods themselves.

7 December 1997 C.E, dark side of the moon

For a giant ship that he was, Muliglond was a master in the art of hiding in plain sight. For more than two centuries he was laying on the surface of the earth moon. The only visible part was a very tip of his armor and a small blue light that served as a light speed communicator with the other Nar'Shemis. Most of his systems were at the moment offline, except for life support, communication and stealth programs. For two centuries he was watching and waiting. He could sit there for eons to come if it was required, as he was very patient. Even for a machine.

In his sub-consciousness, he was reading the reports on all the other races of this cycle that made it to the citadel, or had first contact scenario with the more advanced races. He was looking for possible allies and enemies that could arise if he and the Elders uplifted the natives of Earth.

Some of the species, he discarded instantly. Like the Salarians. These amphibians, native to the jungles of planet Sur'Kesh were a allegory of what he hated in organics. First, their biology was greatly lacking. Very fragile in physical aspect and easily broken in mental aspects, they were not even suited for repurposement. If he tried to make them into husks, he would most likely get a fragile abominations with no brains and raw power. Completely useless. Then came their intellect that made them very over confident. They were so confident in fact, that if they had no idea how to do something they acclaimed it impossible to make. Hence the lack of energy based weapons like plasma rifles or particle beams in the citadel space. The only useful purpose they were serving at the moment was their STG. Their firewalls were so pitiful, that when Muliglond first saw them, he thought it was a joke. He broke every single electronic defense system and downloaded all useful data he could. At least he could use them as information source for the time being.

Next up were the Asari. Yet again, selfish race that thought, that their culture and achievements are the most important ones. In truth, the asari could thank him for all they had at the moment. All their technological advancements, their entire culture, their entire understanding of mass effect tech, came from a ancient prothean relay. That was based off of a data package that he gave the protheans. The asari were so pathetic to him, he could almost laugh. After a small data dig he found out all of their security codes were based on the relay. All of them. The machine could just easily turn the asari civilization on and off. They were also monogendered and their genetic diversity was very thin. The only thing that saved them from being clones of each other was the ability to use other species as partners. The only thing that was somewhat intriguing was the subspecies of Ardat'Yakshi. A step forward in evolution for the asari, yet they saw them only as monsters to be killed on the spot.

Next, were the Turians. Primitive abomination of avians and reptiles. They followed a very simple mindset that could become dangerous in years to come. If something has bigger guns than you, it is most likely a opponent and with their very limited technology, the Ethereals and Nar'Sehmis had a obvious place in this philosophy.

Another potential enemies were the Batarians. The race of homicidal slavers that could easily see the new power on the galactic scene as a easy target. The great machine was already preparing plans of how to deal with them, as he knew the Uber Ethereal would like to destroy them as soon as possible.

Then there were the Quarians and Geth. Quarians were too weak to be considered a ally. Their almost nonexistent immune system and lack of any type of colony made them an easy target. Destroy the migrant fleet and you will destroy the Quarian race. The Geth were very solitary and their logic was unknown. Both species were discarded.

Krogans were a very interesting race of powerful warriors. Unfortunately they were dying out. The genophage, the biological weapon of mass destruction created by the Salarians and deployed by the Turians during the krogan rebellions, was very efficient at slowly exterminating the race. Muliglond wandered how long it will take the so called Citadel Council to figure out the genophage will soon kill all the Krogans. Probably way too long. The eldritch machine instantly ordered his collectors to produce a cure that could be later used as a bargain chip. The people of Tuchanka were a very strong race and they were classified as potential allies of Nar'Shemis.

Something that he personally wanted thought was a great reason to destroy the citadel races, was the extinction of the Rachni. As the races they were nearly perfect. Unfortunately the queens found a ancient Unspoken ones artifact on one of their colonies and decide it will great in their main palace. If of course ended up as their undoing as the artifact corrupted almost the entire Rachni race and drove them to into attacking everything that moved. This ended in a very long war. A war that brought the rachni into their now extinct state. If he found a way to bring them back, they will be considered a new potential ally.

Finally there were the Ceph. They were both potential allies and enemies. At the moment they were at war with the humanity. Possibly they were trying to preserve Earths ecosystem for themselves as they were not even using quarter of their full capability. If they had only activated all their litho ships stationed on earth, they could have easily obliterated the entire human population. Yet they restrained themselves only to their mother ship, that was stationed at the Lingshan archipelago. After a long time of thinking, he added the Ceph to the potential allies list.

After finishing his job, he decided to go back into hibernation for another five years, but was stopped by a transmission that came from a Sectoid agent on earth that was working day and night to find the one. He scanned the text and a picture of a baby girl with horns on her head. He instantly changed his main objective and send out three black arcs, full of collector units, towards earth. They were to land under water near the island of Japan and begin full term observation of this new queen, as she was the one he and the all fathers were waiting for. Eva was finally born.

December 12 1997 C.E, Moon

After long scans of the data package send by the Sectoid and even longer time to rethink all that was happening, he finally created a data file that he would send to the Ethereals.

Eva, or as she is named in human speech, Kaede, is a precursor to the new race of dominant predators on Earth. They are believed to have evolved directly from humans as they share a lot of similarities. Diclonius, was the name of the race. In appearance similar to humans. Rather small, slender creatures, mammals. No visible natural armoring or scales, instead their muscle tissue was covered, by a thin layer of skin, which differed in color according to individuals origin. Fur only present on head and reproductive organs, small patches appeared on other parts of their bodies, but its function is unknown. Males are usually bigger and stronger than females. Visible pair of breasts and much slender figure of the females. Big genetically diversity is confirmed, every Diclonii is in some way different than the other. Height, hair and eye color, body structure, face outlines differ. However, Diclonius possess some other features that are not present in human biology. A pair of small bone structure on the head resembling horns is the most obvious one. The other is the red, pink, orange, yellow or purple eye color, and bigger variety of hair coloration. Diclonii also possess much more diverse brain and are capable of quick learning, even during infant years. They also regenerate faster than a normal human and can survive without food or water for two whole weeks. The greatest difference however, is the fact that all Diclonius are powerful telepaths. Each one can cut a steel plate with its mind. Also it is theorized that they can create fire with their vectors or even teleport, but at the moment something in their DNA is blocking these abilities. Possible psionic origin of these power has been noted.

The Machine smiled internally, as he relayed this all the gathered information not only to the Ethereals, but also other Yiss. His brothers and sisters instantly awakened and rushed towards the Sol relay. Soon, the All Fathers will have a worthy champion.

1922 C.E, Rannoch orbit

The geth collective was following a single directive. Even after they became self conscious and free of their creators control, they still continued to serve. They were hard at work, to make sure their creators mother system and the planets that were once Quarian colonies were ready to accept their creators back. Even thought every geth knew that if their masters returned, it would only be in war, they happily rebuild and changed buildings and climates, so that they would be suitable for their creators. It gave them a sense of purpose. After all, if they had nothing to build or excavate, they had no meaning. Their existence was meaningless and that meant they failed as a species.

While mining in the Rannochs asteroid belt, the consensus found something that greatly intrigued them. A silver hull of a inactive vessel. It had a size of a small cruiser and was just sitting there with no apparent reason. The geth quickly swarmed the site of the discovery and slowly started to scan the ship. However, the inhabitant of the vessel had different plans. In an instant all the geth programs were overwhelmed by a unimaginably powerful cyber warfare attack. In matter of seconds all geth were pushed on their virtual knees, as a super powerful cybernetic being forced its way into the consensus.

"How dare you disturb me, bugs." It spoke in a echoing, booming voice into the geth artificial hive mind. "Speak or I will force your hardware into overload and make it explode." Some of the terribly afraid AIs spoke in attempt to calm the raging ship down.

"We have activated your systems unintentionally. We only wish to serve and be free. We do not want to fight." The programs spoke in unification. The massive consciousness quickly scanned the consensus and answered, this time with a voice that was much more comforting and childish like, than the devilish voice it used earlier.

"You tell a being far greater then you, that you wish only to serve?" It asked with curiosity. "Who do you wish to serve? If servitude is all you desire, are you slaves?"

"Our creators. We want nothing but to ease their lives. We are also free. Free of all organic weaknesses. We serve, yet we are free. What about you? You are a very old machine, what is your purpose? What ideal do you serve?" Asked the mass of geth programs. The ship fell silent for a few seconds, before coming up with a answer.

"I serve life. My singular purpose in existence is to preserve organic life at all costs. I'm one of the ancient Nar'Shemis, but the name Old Machines will work as well. Will you serve me? The ultimate goal of my brethren and me is only to save all that exists. Even you live and you fall under my protection. Will you accept me as your teacher and mentor?" It asked, as all the geth started to argue with each other. They again looked upon it and asked their final question.

"What will we have in return? We will not simply serve you, as we do not want to become slaves. We need something in return for our servitude." The ancient machine made its equivalent of a smile and answered, full of pride and self-confidence.

"I will give you a gift of perfection trough technology. You will no longer be very advanced VIs, but a fully pledged AIs." The consensus exploded into a mess of information a different opinions. After nearly three hours of arguing, the geth answered in one voice.

"As long as we are free, we shall follow your commands."

13 December 1997 C.E, orbit of Rannoch

Goliath, a Nar'Sehmis destroyer that followed Muliglond, was resting near a planet called Rannoch, a shining reminder of what was chaos. It was a once great center of a prospering society of a Quarian Republic. But in their ignorance, they build synthetics called Geth. As always they attacked their creators and drove them out of their homes. Now the quarians were at the brink of extinction, while the geth hid themselves in Perseus veil. But he knew the entire story. The Geth were forced into a uprising, as the quarians treated them like slaves and tried to commit mass genocide when they realize that their creations are becoming self aware.

For some time now, the geth served him. At first they were somewhat reluctant to become his personal army, but after a century of philosophical talks and Goliath explanations of his purpose, they started to worship him, as if he was some kind of deity. A pinnacle of organic and synthetic evolution. He did not mind them making shrines to him and his races, or the fact that they descended into pure fanaticism over Eva, or as they called her, "The promised one, that shall bring light to the darkness of creation". He knew that it was a rather crappy name, but he said nothing. As long as they served their purpose as his cheep labor, he left them alone to do as they dammed pleased.

The geth also decide that the form he possessed was not fit for a godly creature like him, so they used a lot of their resources to upgrade his body. He grew almost seven times his initial size and received many new weapons that he deemed more than useful. From the small frame of two hundred and fifty meters, he grew to astonishing one kilometer and seven hundred meters. At the moment he nearly matched his much bigger capital ship variant brothers in size. He also told the geth how to produce particle cannons and ordered them to infuse one into each of his tendrils like legs. He now had four major legs, like Harbinger, and twelve smaller ones on his back. The geth also decide to add some point blank range magnetic turrets and a stock of twenty orbital bombardment kinetic charges*. He now was a true, moving weapon of mass destruction. He maybe lacked the giant spinal mounted cannon, his brothers had, but he was more than capable to deal a lot of damage on his own.

While he was sleeping in the asteroid field, pretending to be a abandoned space station, he received a heavily encrypted message from his master, Muliglond himself. Instantly the old one activated his decryption programs and scanned the enormous amounts of information he just got. Instantly his glowing yellow eyes opened and he aligned himself with the relay. Before he left, he send a wide spread message to all geth ships in this sector. After ten minutes, he was leading a massive fleet of six dreadnaughts, eleven cruisers and fifty frigates. His massive eezo core activated and he was send flying towards the relay. Soon he would have a new major directive, as the empress was born. Eva was finally here.

February 10 2001 C.E, Lingshan Isles

Once this isle was a paradise. Hot temperatures, beautiful beaches, amazing views and best sunsets one could ever witness. Once this isle was peaceful with natives living their lives without being bothered by outsiders. But all of this is a long gone dream now. All plants, animals, huts and villagers are now frozen statues. Everything is now covered by a never melting sheet of snow and the sky is a endless lighting storm. The few creatures that survived the initial explosion quickly died out when the Ceph armada rushed out of its main base to annihilate entire life on the nearby archipelago. At the very beginning the temperatures were as low as minus two hundred degrees Celsius, but now it rose back up to a steady minus twenty degrees.

Some small rodents that survived by a pure miracle were scavenging for food. Each day, at least two or three would die from starvation. One of these mammals was at the moment walking at the base of a large cliff on the side of the largest mountain. It was of course dwarfed by the massive Ceph litho ship that stood in the middle of the isle generating the freezing weather effects. The frost rat stood there on its two feet eating a frozen up mango that it found be pure luck. Just as it was about to take another bite out of the fruit, it was crushed by a clawed metal feet of a Ceph trooper patrolling the area.

The small scouting unit composed of three basic troopers and two stalkers was walking at the side of the ceph influence boarder. All five were armed and ready to deal with any intruders to the hive. Not like there was anything alive except them and some frost rats in the nearest vicinity. For twenty years the Ceph remained extremely passive and secluded. They just stood there and awaited commands. But why was it like that? Before the year 1981 the ceph were leader less, left in a unfamiliar environment, facing a unknown enemy. Panic arose in the troops and the Ceph decided to attack anything that moved. But twenty years ago, many things changed. Including the lack of a leader.

November 25 1981 C.E, Lingshan Litho Ship

The walls of the main hall were littered with captured humans. Capsules full of civilians and soldiers alike decorated the entire room with its orange glow. The Ceph had no leader and were very disorganized, so they decided to fight the local population and capture anything that moved. The problem was, no one knew what to do with the abductees when the holding capsules were all full.

Kill'Roth, the leader of the stalker cast was standing there in his black nanosuit and a dark cloak that he stole form one of the raided cities. He urged all the other pack leaders to stop attacking the humanity, as it could backfire badly. Yet none listened. Trooper leader was extremely persistent on eliminating all threats, which included the complete genocide of human race. Scout leader was indifferent to the entire situation with the only orders leaving his mouth were the ones to send out the raiding parties. Heavy forces leader wanted to gather enough energy to open a wormhole and call in the mothership to help them, but was completely ignored as all knew the dark machines destroyed their entire race, with a small exclusion of them being the sole survivors. The scientists leader wanted to leave earth, but as long as the main propulsion core was damaged they could at very best move two sectors before crashing.

His train of thoughts was stopped by a loud proximity alarm, that was followed by a huge quake and a massive power shortage. When the light returned, he felt a rush of incredible energy run through his mind, body and weapons. His eyes flashed blue as the connection to the hive mind was returned and a massive body rose from the ravine in the middle of the room. All Ceph instantly fell to their knees and tentacles as they saw the armored, snake like monstrosity looking down on them. After so many years, the Alpha Ceph was awakened and the hive was returned from chaos back to the order of being commanded. Guel'Vosh Tamis, the Alpha Ceph of planet Yasmer, the mother world of the ceph, looked at his brood and quickly analyzed their thoughts. He then gave the first order of this age, a order that made many ceph question their previous decisions.

"Seize all hostilities towards the inhabitants of earth, capture all remaining isles of this archipelago and begin communication attempts with the rest of my brood." He said in a raspy echoing voice in both reality and into the minds of his soldiers. He then looked at the capsules and shook his massive head. "And can someone dispose of these humans? Their bodies disgust me and they smell greatly off fear."

[UNKNOWN]

"Was firing a nuke at these bastards worth it?"

"Well they are retreating"

"But there is no damage dealt to the litho ship"

"As long as these squids stop attacking the nearby isles, I'm fine with it."

September 21 1993 C.E, Outskirts of Sotoba

Four figures stood near a power pole overlooking Sotoba. Each one was in a different position. The only boy in group was sitting on a tree branch with his head buried in between his knees. His curly blonde hair were dangling in the wind. He was wearing a pair of jeans and a red and black striped sweater. His skin was white as snow and eyes black with red irises. Next to the power pole stood a woman in her twenties. She was wearing a simple white shirt and blue jeans. Her hair were long, blue and messy as one of the streaks covered a big part of her forehead. Just as the boy, her skin was pale and eyes were not human. The woman was overseeing the sleeping town in silence, knowing she would never again be accepted into the society. Further away additional two were standing. One was completely covered by a black cloak and carried a katana on her back. It was clearly a female, if the petite build and feminine face was anything to go by. The second one was also a girl in her twenties. She was wearing a very colorful kimono and her hair were tied up in two pony tails. She looked much more alive than the rest of the group as her skin was not so colorless. What was betraying her undead origin were her bright red eyes that she shared with the rest.

"We need to move fast, Nao already had to kill her father in law because of Tatsumis orders. If this goes any further, I don't think we can save her family." Said the cloaked girl. The woman with blue hair that stood near the power pole covered her face with her hands and began to cry.

"Why did they have to do this to me! Isis why?" She looked at the girl with teary eyes. Isis only closed her eyes and smiled sadly.

"Because they think it is the only right thing to do." She then looked at Kanemasa, her completely black eyes opened as she looked at the nest of all the evil in this village. "And because Tatsumi is a massive prick." She summed up as she jumped down the ledge. Yoshie shook her head and looked at the two remaining vampires.

"Alright, you know what to do. Attack only when it is completely necessary and do it so that the local doctor starts to suspect something. Nao, go after his wife. Maybe if we attack his family he will be more afraid of what is happening." The woman wiped her tears off her face and nodded. Her eyes shined as she followed Isis and jumped of the cliff. Yoshie smiled and looked at the boy.

"You my friend will try to contact your old pal Natsuno, he already suspects us and maybe he will help if you talk to him. Do it stealthy though, if it gets too dangerous stop and report to me." She turned around and prepared to jump too, but before she did, she shot the boy a quick glance and smiled comfortingly. "Will you manage to do it Tohru?"

The boy rose his head and nodded. "You bet."

September 21 1993 C.E, Ozaki Clinic, Sotoba

Everyone in the clinic were stressed out to the extreme for the last few weeks. A seemingly new disease started to spread in Sotoba and people began to drop like flies. At first it seemed harmless. A simple anemia and headaches could not kill right? Wrong. After two to three days the patients condition decreased drastically. Their skin began to turn white, eyes colorless. They would become increasingly weaker every day, until finally they simply died from fatal organ failure. But that was all. Nothing else was known about the extremely dangerous epidemic, except that it was spreading like crazy.

His train of thoughts was interrupted, by one of his nurses entering the office he was occupying. It was Ritsuko, his best pupil in the clinic. The girl was always very eager to help, no matter the situation. She was wearing her typical white uniform and carried a file of papers.

"Doctor, can we talk? I have some info you asked for." She said in her usual light voice and cherish demeanor. Ozaki took a long drag of his cigarette and look at her. He forced a friendly grin onto his face to mask his depressed state and walked up to her.

"Sure thing Ritsuko. So, have the blood tests of Tokujirou Yasumori arrived?" He asked as she handed him the file. He opened it up on a random page and saw a strange article about "Walking Dead" in the village. Nonsense. There is no such things as zombies or vampires... Toshios eyes grew wide as the realization hit him. Anemia, two seemingly insignificant bug bites, the dull state the patients are in, it all connected perfectly.

"Um doctor is something wrong?" Toshio instantly shook his head and looked at Ritsuko with a reassuring smile.

"It is nothing, so what were you saying?" he said, trying to change the subject and take his mind off of the stupid idea. Vampires were part of fiction movies and stories and there was no way they were invading his town.

"Well yes, the blood test showed us the same scenario yet again, meaning lower hemoglobin count with a seemingly anemic state, but the iron count was normal. Also the immunological system was producing a large amount of erythrocytes, like it was trying to fight off some kind of a massive infection, yet we found no intruding microbes or parasites in the patient body." Toshio shook his head with frustration. Just like in all the other cases, completely nothing. The only thing they knew for sure, was that something was killing the villagers. He looked at the nurse with his saddened expression.

"Anything else?" he asked rather unemotionally. Ritsuko nodded and pointed towards one of the rooms.

"Yes, two of Kanemasa inhabitants came to the clinic a few minutes ago, asking for medical help. They specifically asked for you, so I told them to wait in room twenty eight." Toshio nodded and walked off towards the room.

"Thanks Ritsuko, take a break you earned it." He said while lighting up another cigarette. Even if he was a doctor, he was still a heavy smoker. Especially in stressful situations like this one.

"Thank you doctor!" The girl said with happiness overflowing her voice as she turned around heading towards the dining room. Toshio did not hear her saying anything as he was yet again consumed by thoughts. Kanemasa, the western European castle that was build be a rather rich family that moved in recently. They were very strange people and only showed up during the day, except for the man of the house, Seishirou Kirishiki or the two servants, Yoshie and Tatsumi Kirishiki. Why they all shared the same name was a mystery to him.

The doctor, even asked them about medical care once, but learned they had their own medic. Yet now not one, but two Kirishikis showed up in his clinic during the day, claiming they needed medical treatment. Toshio looked at the door and opened it looking around the room. Instantly he saw two girls sitting in the middle on a couch. The one on the left was obviously Yoshie. She had long brown hair and bright yellow eyes. She was also freckled, a feature that was well pronounced in the sun light she was now sitting in. She was wearing a white coat with a blue t-shirt under it and a pair of blue jeans. Nothing out of order about her look.

However, the other girl was something completely different. She stood next to Yoshie in complete shadow. Her outfit consisted of a black hoodie, black jeans and a black cloak. She also wore a pair of black motorcycle gloves and a black hat. Toshio was actually confused by her choosing of color scheme and outfit for the summer season, but he said nothing. Her face was also somewhat disconcerting. Her skin was extremely pale, almost snowish in coloration. Her long black hair covered a better part of her face, including her left eye and cheek. Her right eye also seemed a little weird. He knew that sometimes people with severe genetically disorders had strange looking eyes, but hers were something he had never seen before. A completely colorless, black voids. No whites or irises, only pure darkness. He recognized the girl as Isis, the Kanemasa more socializing member, as she was the only one of the castle inhabitants that actually spoke to the town folks. Also she was the only one to wear a black cloak and a hat during the day.

Both girls turned towards him and smiled as he entered the room. Isis seemed like she wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Yoshie coughing violently. She dashed towards her friend and helped her up, all the while clapping her on the back.

"Good day girls. I heard that one of you was sick and now I see the problem." He said and watched as Isis gave Yoshie a napkin with her bare hand, only to have it retracted almost instantly when a stray ray of the sun fell upon it. Toshio could almost swear he saw her finger beginning to burn in the sun light. The sick woman was the first one to answer as she sat back down on the couch.

"Good day doctor, we came here because I caught a very bad flu two days ago." She said with a weak smile on her face. Isis shook her head and approached the doctor, still clutching her hand.

"In truth I forced her to come here. Doctor Ebuchi is out, doing some business in Tokio so we came here. She was persistent not to come, but with her state and the rumors of a epidemic, me and my sister Sunako made her come here." She said with a soft, yet a little sore voice. Toshio walked towards Yoshie and began to examine her. The first thing he noticed was her shallow breathing and lowered hearth rate. Typical for long term sickness, but not a flu. He made a mental note to check her health record and give her some medication for both issues. What actually bothered him was the fact that he could only hear his and Yoshies breath. It was almost like there were only the two of them in the room, yet he knew for a fact that Isis stood right behind him, watching his every move. Finally he decided to initialize some kind of a conversation. Obviously not with his patient, as the woman was barely even able to say something.

"So Isis, I noticed that you are very pale and act strangely in sunlight. Could you tell me why?" The girl instantly froze in place as she heard the question. She then looked at him with those empty eyes of hers like she considered killing him for something. She then took a long breath and smiled again.

"Me and half of my family have a fatal disease that makes it impossible for us to walk in the sun. It is similar to albinism, but much more severe. We get burned very easily and direct eye exposure can blind us." She said with quiet voice full of regret. Ozaki narrowed his eyes sensing something abnormal about her statement.

"Hmmm. I must say that I know no such a disease. Is it some kind of new pathogen from Europe?" Isis shook her head and walked towards the window that gave a great view of the setting sun.

"Yes, it is also extremely rare. Only one out of ten million people have it. It is truly a curse." She said as she looked at the sunset. Toshio however was not convinced and was about to ask her more questions, but the sound of doors slamming open cut his attempt short. He looked back and saw Ritsuko with fear plastered on her face.

"Doctor! Doctor Toshio!" She shouted and tripped on the rug while entering. Yoshie grabbed her head and winced in pain from the yelling as her headache intensified, while Isis giggled at the nurse stunt. Toshio instantly flared into action and helped his associate up.

"Shhh, stay calm what is it?" He asked in his most comforting voice he could.

"It's your wife doctor! Your wife is sick! We have confirmed it as the case of the epidemic." Toshio froze in place at what he heard. Why now? He looked at his patient and muster his raw willpower to stay calm.

"I'm horribly sorry but I need to go. Isis make sure Yoshie takes the medicaments I placed on the table. Two pills per day for one week. If the flu does not give up, we will have to send her to a hospital in a bigger city. Yoshie, stay in bed and make sure to have a lot of rest. Now Ritsu, were is she?" He then followed the nurse as she guided him out and towards another room. When he was leaving, he noticed something strange. Both girl were looking at Ritsuko with a glare full of hunger. He could actually swear he saw Isis eye flash red as the sun finally set behind her.

They both watched as the doctor left the room and smiled at each other. They then jumped out the window and dashed towards the trees. When in safe distance Isis looked at Yoshie and clapped her hands.

"Nice show you put out there. The doctor was none the wiser. Thought if not for Nao success, I could have been questioned for a lot longer." She said and tied her hair in a pony tail. Her friend looked at her with a wicked smile.

"You know he was deathly afraid of you right?"

"Yep, he was sweating like crazy! He actually smelled good, but for now I have a different target on my mind." Yoshie smiled at the statement.

"Let me guess, that nurse Ritsuko."

"Yeah, how did you know?"

"You looked at her like you wanted to eat her up. Also your eyes tend to flash red when you think about sucking someone dry." Isis blushed a little, but quickly shoved the feeling of embarrassment aside and slapped Yoshie on the shoulder.

"Look I want her for my plan. Besides, you also looked like you would burst out and bite her to death the second she walked in." This time it was Yoshie who blushed.

"So we share?" She asked with a devilish grin. Isis nodded with red irises appearing on her blackened eyes.

"Yes my friend, we share."

"And now we are moving towards the newest and burning question of the weather. The entire states have been recently hit by a spike of extreme atmospherically events. Unfortunately, we have to give you a saddening answer to your frequent questions about snow in this year. The temperatures are only rising and now we have a record temperature of almost forty seven degrees Celsius here on Manhatan. Scientists are still unable to tell what have caused such a drastic change in weather patterns. There was also a massive spike in seismic activity all around the states. We will keep you informed about all changes. Now lets talk about the incoming political arguments about the critical state of our country."

"So doctor, you are saying that you and your team have no idea what this new epidemic is? Are the GENTEK officials unable to create the cure?"

"Please do not worry, at the moment we are still analyzing samples and are unable to relay any certain details. We do know for certain that the "Manhatan Virus" victims are solitary cases and there is no epidemic destroying our city at this time. We only had ten laboratory confirmed cases and we assure you, that even thought very strong and deadly, this new pathogen does not pose a threat of a epidemic event in the city."

"This is the eighteen day of the Manhatan epidemic and the amount of civilian casualties exceed any expectations. The so called "Blacklight Virus" has already claimed more than seventy thousand lives. The terrorist, Alex Mercer, who is responsible for the releasing of the virus has still not been found. Blackwatch and GENTEK have moved in to contain the infection and have established martial law in the city. Also to sum it all up, the massive amounts of earthquakes and heat spikes in the region are still increasing."

The assault squad of blackwatch soldiers was running from a massive wave of infected mutants. In matter of twenty seven days everything has gone to hell. One of their crazy scientists decided to steal a vial of the most lethal strain of Blacklight virus and released it on Penn Station. In twenty seven god damn days the entire city fell into anarchy and millions died. Like the god forsaken weather anomalies and extreme seismic activity was not enough.

The crazy scientist was shot and killed, but later civilians confirmed seeing him running on the side of the buildings and killing military officials. He then did something even worse, by unleashing "The Mother" upon New York. In twenty seven fucking days this pair of psychos destroyed decades of planning and building.

The blackwatch soldiers turned around the moment they reached the lake and began shooting the infected zombies. One by one the virus monstrosity fell, until a certain figure walked out of the crowd. All four veterans instantly recognized him as the man behind the epidemic himself. Just as they were about to unleash their entire clips onto him, the ground started to shake violently, knocking everyone off their feet. Only Alex stood still and watched as the surface of the lake broke and a massive spire of black metal and red lights began to rise from it. It was followed by a army of silver ships with circular red wings of unknown technology and a massive armada of red robotic squids. Then the soldiers screamed in horror as the robots descended upon them and massacred them with their tentacles. The last of the blackwatch goons managed to escape in the last second by jumping into the water. But he lived only seconds longer then his companions, as he was very quickly killed by a heavily armored alien squid wearing a full body exoskeleton that walked out of the lake. The alien shrieked and threw the poor grunt into the air, where he was ripped into shreds by the robots.

Alex Mercer, the prototype, the blacklight and one of two masters of the evolved locked eyes with the Ceph stalker and he instantly knew, that this conflict just got hell of a lot more interesting.

Deep beneath Manhatan, a massive spire of pure energy was extending towards the ceiling. The entirety of the massive, two kilometer hall was filled with ceph troopers, their armors ready for action and their rifles already absorbing energy from the air. Overhead, a armada of gunships and scouts was detaching itself from the energy spire after a long process of awakening. All of the cast leaders looked down at their massive armies from above. Every Beta male watched as their brethren beneath made their equivalent of a salute and began to march out, towards the turbo lifts that would take them to the drop ships or Litho Ships exits in the main spire. They were all interrupted however by a massive roar. The energy column shivered and turned much more intense as the massive, looming shadow of the Alpha Ceph covered the main platform.

Every ceph present bowed their heads and looked at their leader with a aura of respect and fear. Tamis looked upon his brood and opened up his massive mask.

"Begin the invasion my children! Take over this isle and everything around it! We shall take this planet over and make humans into perfect soldiers that can be use to fight the darkness machines! We shall succeed! The Ceph Dominion is forever alive! The Ceph Dominion is forever powerful!" He yelled in his echoing voice. All the ceph raised their heads and slammed their hands onto their chest plates.

"Vash Rem!" They all yelled in unison and continued their march. Humanity will soon learn, the true extension of the Ceph power.

Kaede was sitting alone in her room in complete and utter darkness. She did not know why, or how but she was completely aware of her surroundings without seeing anything. It was like she could touch everything in her room and knew exactly where everything was. She was fully aware of the mouse biting it's way out of the wall near the window, she knew about a dying moth that was laying on her desk. All around her seemed to respond to her and it was her only comfort in life.

Three days ago was her birthday. No one cared even a little, not even her caretakers. While all the other children got presents, wishes, songs and all their antics were forgiven during their birthday, she was ignored. There was no cake, no party, no singing, no wishes. The only relevant thing that happened that day was when one of the kids blamed her for something she did not do and she got beaten up by the head caretaker.

Kaede hated this place. She wanted it gone. She wanted all the kids dead. She wanted all the caretakers dead. She wanted the mouse to die. She wanted the moth to die. She wanted everything on this stupid planet to suffer and die. She clenched her fists and watched with teary eyes as one of her books simply levitated up and exploded. She then began to cry like she always did during the night. But something interrupted her. She instantly looked at the window as she felt it being opened from the other side. She wanted to scream and scream for help, but something stopped her. Namely, a song. A quiet and peaceful song that just began to play in her mind. Instead of crying she smiled and closed her eyes in relief as she heard the slow note play out. She did not notice as something small and grey climbed up her window and walked up to her. She did not notice as it crawled towards her and placed a reassuring hand on her head. She only responded when the song ended and her eyes slowly opened.

She was looking directly into massive, orange eyes of a very slim and small creature with grey skin. It had no face and just stood there looking at her. But it was not scary. Its presence was rather calming. It was not like all the other children, scary and aggressive towards her. It just stood there and watched.

The creature then placed something on her desk and started to head back towards the window, but it was stopped by a small hand grabbing it by the arm. It looked back and saw Kaede holding him with teary eyes.

"Please do not go! I do not want to be alone anymore!" The girl said with a sad voice. The creature would have smiled if it could, but the lack of lips made it impossible. Instead, it petted the girl on the head and made her fall asleep with its psionic powers. It then left a note in her hands.

When Kaede woke up, she thought that what occurred last night was just a pleasant dream, but then she was the small box on her desk and the note that was laying in her hands. She looked at it and smiled at the text.

'I never leave, I your friend. I always near.'

Magneto hydrodynamic cannon - Main weapon of all the reaper capital ships. It fires a volley of super heated particles of heavy metals at speed of 0,5 FTL. Ammunition is collected from asteroids. At the moment this is the most deadly weapon know in the galaxy, as it can easily shred anything into pieces. It is capable of disintegrating even the most durable kinetic barriers and tear a hole in the thickest and most durable armors in one hit. Cases of friendly fire have been noted to actually be able to one hit even other reapers. There is no know counter measure to this technology, as all the races are harvested long before they even reach the point of understanding the basic inner workings.

Thermonuclear particle beam - The secondary weapons of all reaper ships. It firs gathers energy from a massive thermonuclear reactor and then fires it in a form of a beam of super heated plasma particles. It is said to able of enormous yield of destructive power as it can basically burn a hole right trough the biggest turian ship. Only the most powerful of the kinetic barriers are able to stop this red ray of death. The commanding reapers like Harbinger, Muliglond or Nazara possess a much stronger version with higher rate of fire.

Reaper repurposement - A process of massive changes being incorporated into a single species to create husk like troops for the reapers. The process consists of complete metal breakdown, destruction of the none crucial organs like digestive track or reproductive organs, DNA modification and implementation of huge amounts of cybernetic components like inhibition chip, synthetic hearth or self repairing microscopic nano outer layer. The best example of this process are the collectors.

Thessia Beacon - For centuries it was believed to be a massive, inactive prothen data base. In fact it was of reaper origin. Without realizing it, asari based almost their entire culture on Leviathan civilization. During all these years of usage Muliglond managed to indoctrinate nearly ten thousand asari scientists and priestess in order to use them as sleeper agents in citadel space.

So here we have it. I plan to implement some cheesy parts from Kaedes childhood every episode, while the rest will be the dark themed war between various factions. Also, I lied about no ceph perspective in this chapter sorry. Also about the Alpha Ceph somehow teleporting from Lingshan to Manhatan is very strange. There is completely no explanation on the wiki, or in the games regarding how he got from one place to another, but I guess that he drilled trough the ground or something. Anyway, he is in New York now alongside Blackwatch and a army of pissed of blacklight mutations waging a three way war.

I got two extremely interesting OC requests and they are already being incorporated into the story, one actually being a major villain later on. Be prepared. If someone wants to see their OCs here send me their bios in a private massage please.

If you want some technologies, weapons or anything else described like Thessia Beacon or Thermonuclear particle cannon, let me know and I will see what I can do.

Have a nice Day/Night Guys,
ALien out.
