The Rise and Fall of Maria Shepard

by XxRebelAngelxX

Maria was at the peak of her career. She had defeated the collectors, she had met many talented soldiers that she would eventually call friends, and she discovered the love of her life; Garrus Vakarian. Maria's happy-go-lucky attitude was already challenged by the rising Reaper threat. Would she be able to overcome the death of Garrus and move on in order to save the galaxy?

10. A plan with Thane

Dear Readers,

Sorry I haven't updated my stories in awhile, there have some very personal issues in my life right now so I hope you can forgive me and we can move on to the story!

BTW reviews are ALWAYS welcome, keeps me writing

Thane trudged up to the Medical bay to see what Maria wanted him for.

Sure he wanted to help her, no he NEEDED to help her because, because,

He loved her.

He would do anything for his Siha, sure they weren't lovers but she agreed for him to call her that, it was a warrior and goddess after all.

As he entered the office he saw Maria, SHEPARD, pacing in circles while the Doctor stood silently in the corner watching Shepard nervously until she heard Thane and looked up.

"So nice to see you Thane"

Then after that Maria looked up

"Glad you're here" she said plainly

She means business thought Thane as he began to talk, "What can I do for you Commander?"

"I have a little question, or more of a favor to ask you…"

He was in trouble.

"Can you gather some of the crew to go get Garrus, with you being um, a substitute Commander?"

Thane couldn't believe his ears

"I would be delighted Shepard"

Shepard smiled warmly and ran and gave him the BIGGEST hug ever and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

"Thank you Thane, now go gather that team".
