A/N: hi guys! sorry about the delay, AC: Rogue, FC 4, Middle Earth: SOM, DA:I and Diablo 3: Ultimate Evil Edition all on 360 are to blame, so fucking addicting! anyway just a warning, some lovey dovey conversations between Silver and Tali, just so you know, some horrible puns maybe, you know, the usual so here we are Chapter...! errm... the next Chapter! -Is My Bitch is here, oh and this - at the start of a chapter title means you have to read that and the chapter with - that at the end to make a saying, I'm not assuming you're stupid, just letting you know
as we took the rapid transit back to Chora's Den I was deep in thought
'remember! what happened in this part of the game?!'
'I don't know!'
'figure it out!'
-Shepard's POV-
I watched Silver having a battle within his own mind, his face was concentrated and he kept getting a little red... angry red...
I went to tap him but Garrus beat me to it
"hey! Silver, you ok?" asked Garrus
"don't go mother henning now G, I've been shot and you've shown less concern"
"don't forget I was tending my bullet wounds while you were tending yours!"
"oh Garrus, so selfish..."
"selfish?"
"she sells sea shells on the sea shore" I said for no apparent reason
"she sells she shells- what?" asked Garrus
"I called you selfish, you put your own health before mine" sighed Silver
"I sense a hint of sarcasm there" I said
"sarcas- sarcasm!? how- why would you accuse me of such things? you know me better than that Shepard" said Silver
"because you're above sarcasm?" Garrus rolled his eyes
"krogan are definitely above sarcasm" said Wrex with a grin
"thats a paradox, you say that and that might well be, but you said it with sarcasm and you're a krogan"
we landed outside
-Silver's POV-
"theres a guard" I whispered
they stopped as I went in
I tapped him on the left shoulder and went round his right side and knocked him out
"hmmm, unconscious, exactly as I planned" I said as the others joined me (kudos to those that get that reference)
we tried the door
"its locked!" said Shep
"thats a bitch" said Garrus
"a cold hard one" I replied as Shep hacked it
"looks like it's shut down"
"Fist knows we're coming"
"I'm not, I mean I don't know about you, but I'm not into dudes"
"Silver?" asked Shep
"yeah?"
"shut up"
"err, yeah, right, got it"
the door opened and I threw a grenade in, killing about five of them
Wrex jumped on one and pummeled him to death(shut up...)
Garrus sniped one and booted another down before finishing him with a pistol
Shep took out three with an assault rifle
I hopped the bar and kicked a goon down in the process
I slit his throat with my knife (a custom, long [a little shorter than a short sword and longer than a dagger] Spanish Andúfar blade with optionally spiked knuckle dusters attached)
I aimed up and shot a glass which shattered and sliced a guy who was taking cover behind the bar the glass was sitting on's eye in half
he got up and shot wildly before falling forwards and sending the glass shard into his brain
"ouch" I said
"hey, did you hear about the other guy who got his left eye cut out by glass? he sees all right now" said Garrus
"Garrus, I expect those jokes from Silver, but from you?" said Shep as he shook his head
"stealing my limelight?" I asked with a smile
"Silver, if you or Garrus make jokes like that again, I might have to kill you on principle" said Wrex
"no one would blame you" I said
we entered the back room where two workers with pistols were waiting
"stop right there! don't come any closer!"
"warehouse workers, all the real guards must be dead"
"stay back or we'll shoot!"
"go home and let the big boys handle this, little boys shouldn't handle guns" I said
"ok..." they said and walked out
"nice one" said Shep
"I aim to please" I said
"Silver, and you wonder why no one likes you"
"hey! I'm more popular than Fornax!" I said
"no one will ever be more popular than Fornax" said Garrus
"fan?" asked Wrex
"what? I- no!" exclaimed Garrus
"don't worry you're not the only one" said Wrex
"I did not need to know that, can we move on?"
we moved into Fist's office
"why do I have to do everything myself? time to die little soldiers!"
"yes it is" I said and threw grenades on both of the turrets, knocking Fist on his arse
"wait! don't kill me! I surrender!"
-Shepard's POV-
Silver hauled him up and threw him across a table
he tried to crawl away but Silver grabbed his foot and swung him into the wall
"I said I surrender" he said and coughed blood
he picked him up by the collar
"where the quarian!?" he demanded
"I- I don-" before he could finish Silver threw him into the opposite wall
"talk to me you prick!" he said and lifted up by the neck
"she- she came here! looking for me, and the Shadow Broker! but I don't know I-"
he stopped gain as Silver lifted him inches off the ground and his grip on Fist's neck became a hazard to Fist's life
"LIAR! you tell me WHERE!" he yelled and smashed him against the wall, I could swear I heard a crack
"o-k" he wheezed before Silver let him drop to the floor
"I only know where she'll be! she said she'd only meet with the Broker himself"
"face to face? impossible! even I was hired through an agent"
"nobody meets the Shadow Broker, ever, even I don't know his true identity, but she didn't know that, I told her I'd set a meeting up, but when she shows up, it'll be Sarens people waiting for her"
I saw complete rage take over Silver
"I didn't ask you, for your life story" he said and slightly smiled as he throttled him again
"pl-please" he begged both me and Silver
"you don't get to ask for forgiveness! tell me WHERE or I'll make you hate your mother and father for birthing you into this world!" he said and let him go again
"here on the Wards! the back ally! by the markets! she's supposed to meet them right now, you can make it if you hurry"
"thanks" said Silver and nodded at Wrex who cocked a shotgun and blew Fist's face off
"I was paid to kill him, I don't leave jobs half done" he explained
"he deserved worse" said Silver who picked up a disk
"are you ok? what you did back there..." I started
"what of it?" he asked nonchalantly and started walking away, that's the part that scared me the most, the calm AFTER the storm, he acts as if it never happened!
"nothing" I replied
"so come on! we're wasting time!" he said and bolted out the door, he was faster and by the time we caught up to him, some extra bodies were on the floor, we ran out of the club and to the backally
we saw the girl but no Silver, maybe he went the wrong way?
"did you bring it?" asked an Assassin
"where's the Shadow Broker, wheres Fist?" she asked in reply
"they'll be here, wheres the evidence?" he asked and ran his hands down her, looking for the evidence
"no way, the deal's off" she said and smacked his hand away
he backed off and two armoured Salarian's walked out of cover
she dropped a grenade and ran
during the confusion Silver jumped out of nowhere and gunned the rest down with two pistols(like Ray McCall from Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood in the second to last chapter when he's saving William)
-Silver's POV-
"Fist set me up! I knew I couldn't trust him"
"well, you needed help he needed the evidence and you assume everything is whoop-di-doo? (Family Fortunes buzzer sound) ehh ehh wrong!" I said
"who are... you..." she trailed off
"I'm Shepard and this is-" started Shep
"Silver!" she exclaimed and hugged me
"hey Tali" I said quietly as she buried her head into my chest
"I missed you" she said
"I missed you to, so much" I held her head in my hand and cupped where her cheek would be, she gripped my hand before slapping me
"ow!" I exclaimed
"why didn't you call? or send me an vidmail?! hmm?! I thought you were dead when you didn't come back you- you bosh'tet!" she said and hugged me again
"will it bruise?" I mouthed to Shep
he looked at Garrus and Wrex and nodded
I held her shoulders and pried her off me
"this is Commander Shepard of the Normandy, my friend, Garrus Vakarian my partner in C-Sec and my friend, and lastly, Urdnot Wrex, err some krogan we met"
"hah! some krogan..." he shook his head at my statement
"my apologies Commander Shepard, but why are you here? and where is Fist?" she asked
Silver scowled
"our friendly neighbourhood krogan took care of that piece of shit, and we're looking for evidence against Saren, evidence I believe you have?" asked Silver
"yes I do, but not here, we need to go someplace safe"
-Shepard's POV-
"lets go to the human embassy, to the Batmobile-! I mean the rapid transit" said Silver, at least he'd regained his humor
we drove there in silence
when we arrived we walked in the door
"at least we didn't arrive during any... moments" smiled Silver
"if you ever did, I'd give you the Normandy herself" replied Anderson
"you both aren't making my life easy Commander's, firefights in the Wards? an all-out assault on Chora's Den? do you know how many-?" he stopped and we looked at Silver who was writing on a pad
"that's that... next on my 'places to have a fight in/shoot up' is the Presidium!" he exclaimed
"who's this? a quarian? what're you up to Commander's?"
"we were thinking of having an all race rally about peace in front of the Council, will you sign our waiver?" Silver rolled his eyes
"wha-?" Udina started
"bringing down Saren you moron! something YOU failed to do, and 'that quarian' has a name!" exclaimed Silver
"my apologies Commander, this whole thing with Saren has me a bit on edge"
he smiled and patted Udina on the shoulder
"it's ok, I know how you feel, we're all on edge my friend" he said
Udina looked surprised at Silver's sudden forgiveness
"I- thank you Silver, ahem, well maybe you better start at the beginning, Miss-"
"my name is Tali, Tali'Zorah nar Rayya" she said, she was sticking close to Silver, she reminded me of a shy child, she wasn't scared just a bit overwhelmed, she stepped out when she said her name, with a hint of pride
"we don't see many quarians here, why did you leave the flotilla?"
I think Silver was about to tell Udina to mind his own business, in the form of a horrible pun knowing him, but a glare from Tali shut him up
"I was on my Pilgrimage, my rite of passage into adulthood, as Silver technically is"
"Silver?" I asked
"I lived on the Rayya for a good few years, so my name is actually 'Kraven Silver nar Rayya' I suppose, I was sent early on my Pilgrimage and joined the Alliance instead, I never went back, I loved it there, but it wasn't for me"
"I saw you on the vids you know, after Torfan when you vanished, I thought you'd been killed or the Batarians got you or..." she trailed off
"he was on plenty of vids here on the Citadel when he was at C-Sec, the shit we got up to..." remenised Garrus
"anyway, what did you found- find, Tali" said Silver, he wasn't known for his bad grammar... neither are you writer
me: why thank you Shepard's inner monologue!
thats ok!
A/N: sorry about that last part, I wanted to end the chapter there, anyway without further ado, granddad's story time! ahem, so this guy, who was quite muscular nicknamed Shirley because of his long white hair(imagine it), used to take sneak off of work before breaks, they had a storage area for unused equipment and had these stainless steel lockers that were facing the ceiling with the doors open, anyway he used to sneak down, climb into the locker's, shut the door and sleep, and he got one of the others to kick the locker to let him know it was break time and to get up, so anyway, the boss was showing a guy around the storage area who was planning on buying some stuff, anyway to demonstrate how tough the lockers were he gave them a kick and out climbs this Shirley, hair and all!(imagine yourself in that guys shoes! if I was the boss I would have said *man not included) please review!
