A/N Sorry this has taken so long, haven't had much time I've had a couple of big English projects I've been working on also what we were doing in English would help me so I decided to put it off until we had finished that part also I haven't had time to write it from my phone laptop, and family shit

Also, okay so I guess I don't really know how to say the difference between what Holly and Shepard do if it's at the same time so if it changes in the next few chapters I'm sorry, but if you do find one you like best tell me and I'll continue that way c: I've rewritten this a few times too and I'm not sure if I'm still completely happy with it but will have to do as this has taken SOOOOOO LONG and its not even that big a chapter

Holly went into the crew's quarters to get settled in when she saw a woman with bright copper Orangey hair standing right in front of her. She looked the woman over a couple of times then thought to herself Aw shit if this is one of these pshco people I might just die, what the hell would she think about me? Finally the Woman spoke

"You must be Holly?"

Snapping back into reality after being in her own world thinking she realized her name had just been said by this woman

"Uh yeah that's me. New one is it that easy to tell?"

"No, no just Jeff sorry Joker as you know him said you were coming and told me what you looked like so that I would know. I'm always here to help"

"Um thanks...?"

"Kelly" said the Woman quickly and after that she turned and left

Holly was standing in what was really quite a dark and cold room with multiple quite hard looking bunkbeds. She could make out a faint humming noise and a blue glow coming from a window at the back of the room.

"Huh? What's going on here?"

After realizing
that there is a very well hidden window in the seemingly boring room she decided to further investigate

"oh it's the mass effect core, Damn that's going to be off putting when I try to sleep"

Holly needed to get to know some people and that was going to be hard being the captains/commanders sister

Shepard stormed into the cic

"Kelly get the illusive man on vid now" Shepard demanded

"yes commander straight away" Kelly said in her normal light tone and started typing as fury filled Shepard went through the Armory to the vid room

"What the hell are you playing at!" Shepard screamed at the illusive man

"Shepard you and I both know she is talented" he replied coolly in his usual manner

"She may be talented but not enough for my ship!" Shepard continued to scream

"Shepard this is a Cerberus owned ship, you merely work for us." TIM replied

He was driving her mad why did he never understand that she was not working for him but she was using him for his resources to fight the Collectors and the even bigger threat of the Reapers

"Why do you not get it? I will NEVER work for Cerberus, besides as captain I get to choose the crew and she is NOT part of it"

"That may be Shepard, we always thought of this and we have accepted it but you haven't walked away whether it's because our using us, feel like you owe us or just because the Alliance never believed you, We don't care you're still here. And for the matter with you choosing the crew, you may get to but it doesn't mean I don't get to either. Don't forget who is in charge here"

And with that Shepard stormed off to her quarters in an anger fuelled rage, no one was stupid enough to try
to stop her….

That was until Garrus heard.
