"Tali. Tali, wake up." Said Shepard shaking her.
Tali opened her eyes, she was covered in sweat. Tali looked at Shepard. "I, I was having a dream." stated Tali looking scared.
"It's alright now, it's over." Shepard stroked the side of her face. "Do you want to talk about it? What ever it was it had you going pretty good."
"You don't mind to listen."
"No, of course not." Tali sat up.
"I was in a park, just wandering through it. The trees where burned, and everything was a kind of gray. Then I saw a boy he was the only thing in color. He kept wanting me to follow him."
"Did you?"
"No I just wanted to find my way out. I kept searching, but for some reason I kept running back onto the boy. When I finally actually stopped, and spoke with the child. I asked him to show me a way out. He told me there was no way out, and then a red beam of light hit the boy, and he was gone. I was alone after that, wondering around for hours. I even sat down and cried. That's when you woke me up."
"Tali I'm sorry I did this to you." Shepard tried to pulled her in, and hold her. Tali stopped him though before he could actually hug her though.
"What do you me, you did this to me?"
"That was essentially my dream. I kept having that dream, in my vision. I never spoke with the child, and when the beam of light hit the child I always woke up, but that was my dream. This is my fault Tali. I've given you a very horrible thing, and now you may have to live with it." Shepard pulled her in now and held her.
"We have to take the good with the bad here. Javik said I was indoctrinated, that's worse then having a bad dream. I'm not going to complain. I still have you, and that's what matters to me. Okay?"
"Your sure you don't hate me?" Asked Shepard looking down at Tali. Tali leaned back slightly.
"No. How could I be mad at you? For saving my life. I love you, this is just one of the pains of love. Now let's go back to sleep, maybe Xen will be here when we wake up." Tali moved back in, kissed Shepard on the lips, and then snuggled up to Shepard laying her head on his chest, as they layed back. "I love you." Said Tali softly before she drifted off to sleep.
"I love you to." Shepard kissed her on the head before falling back to sleep himself holding her. They slept for several more hours, Tali had no incidents the rest of the night. Shepard woke up. Tali was still sleeping on his chest, drooling on him.
"Hey, wake up, your drooling on me." Said Shepard softly.
"I don't want to get up. I want to lay here, with you." Said Tali sounding sleepy still.
Tali. Said Shepard trying to get her attention. Tali responded by crawling up on Shepard, laying completely over top of him smearing the drool. "Why can't life be like this all the time? No trouble, just laying in bed with a loved one arguing about getting up."
"Because if it was, then you and I would never have met, and I wouldn't let this play out any other way."
"Your sweet." Tali kissed Shepard and then noticed a wet spot on her upper stomach. "What is that?" Tali lifted herself off of Shepard, and saw a string of drool hanging between them.
"I told you, you drooled on me. "
"Sorry let me wipe that off of you."
"No, I don't think so." Shepard wrapped his arms around Tali and roles over on top of her. "You can't get out of bed now." Shepard and Tali started making out ferociously.
"I want you so bad right now."
"You do? Good. Because me to." Shepard moved down to her neck when Joker came over the comm stopping him.
"Commander Admiral Raan is back with Xen, they're requesting to come aboard. "Said Joker."
"Two days and now they come." Said Tali sounding disappointed
"How long do we have?" Asked Shepard still on top of Tali looking over his shoulder.
"About twenty minutes. Give or take a few." Replied Joker.
"It will have to do." Said Tali to to Shepard.
"Uh, I'm just gonna hang up now." Responded Joker sounding embarrassed.
"You do that." Replied Shepard before going back to Tali.
Forty minutes later
Shepard and Tali took the elevator down to the shuttle bay, Raan, and Xen where waiting for them. Tali was still trying to fix her suit as they had rushed down. "Well I'm glad you finally decided to join us. Did you have fun up there?" Asked Xen. Tali and Shepard looked at each other. "Your comm officer tried to contact you when we arrived. Instead he patched you through on the intercom." Tali face palmed her mask and dragged her hand down. "Relax Tali we where all young once, and with a man like that I'd have made us wait to. I just wish I could trying him out now."
"Xen." Shouted Raan. Xen looked at Raan.
"Don't act like you don't want to do the same. We talked about it the whole way here." Replied Xen. Shepard smiled he couldn't hold it back. Xen looked back over to Shepard. "See even he likes the idea."
"To bad he's mine. And you, stop smiling, you're only enticing them." Said Tali hitting Shepard in the gut.
"I'm sorry Tali, let's get down to business so you can rejoin the flotilla." Said Raan.
"Did you bring the EMP gun?" Asked Shepard.
"Gun? What gun?" Replied Xen.
"Sorry, I didn't actually tell him yet." Said Tali looking at Xen before turning to Shepard. "We don't have a EMP gun. If we did the Geth would be in trouble. We're going to have to build one."
"How long is it going to Take?" Asked Shepard.
"Maybe two hours, its not going to take that long." Said Tali.
"The sooner we get started the soon we will be done." Said Xen walking up to Shepard looking him over. Xen then noticed The spitfire on the armory table and walked over to it, losing interest in Shepard. "Where did you get one of these. Xen picked up the spitfire. I have been asking the soldiers to bring me one for month."
"It was Legions, I can't figure out how to recharge it." Said Tali.
"Don't both. The weapon itself is a piece of junk. It can't shoot straight for five seconds. The only good thing about this weapon is it works extremely well on them. My last one blew up in my face when I tried to examine it, do you mind if I take this one?" Said Xen asking.
"Cerberus already has a working model. I've used it, and your right it can't shoot straight." Said Shepard.
"I'm not surprised Cerberus figured it out, they have a greater number of resources then I. Now if I have to ask again, I'll take the damn thing whether you like it or not. So what's your answer?" Asked Xen.
"We'll share it, I'll make sure it doesn't blow up in your face this time." Stated Tali.
"Fine, now let's get to work. I want to dissect that Geth of yours." Said Xen sounding happy.
"Do you need me down here?" Asked Shepard to Tali.
"No, trust me its going to get pretty boring down here." Said Tali.
"I guess I'll go hang with Garrus for a while then. I'll see you later." Shepard headed to the elevator. Raan tagged along.
"Shepard I'm sorry for the comments Xen made, she's not the most considerate when it comes to social matters." Said Raan.
"I figured as much. Did you just come to apologize or is their something else." Asked Shepard.
"Just apologize, but If you don't mind I would like to speak to your doctor, make sure she's properly taking care of Tali."
"Go right ahead. I'm sure if were doing something wrong, Doctor Chakwas would like to know." The elevator doors opened, Shepard and Raan disembarked. Shepard walked for the main battery, while Raan went for the Med bay. Shepard reached the main battery, Jacob, and Garrus were sitting across from each other, with computers on their laps.
"Hey commander." Said Jacob looking up from his computer for a moment, before looking back down. "Damit Garrus. You only got me because I looked away."
"And who's fault is that." Said Garrus, setting his computer off to the other side. "So what's up Shepard."
"Just board, trying to find something to do." Replied Shepard, leaning against the main consul.
"You mean you didn't have enough fun with Tali earlier." Said Garrus smiling.
"Joker needs his ass kicked for that." Stated Shepard.
"It was an accident, I'm sure." Said Jacob suggesting.
"A disturbing one at that. Twenty seconds he left that on." Replied Garrus.
"I think he was in shock, for doing it, and it was more like ten." corrected Jacob.
"Can we not talking about that? It's to personal." Asked Shepard.
"Yeah, personally I don't want to relive another, oh Shepard moment." Said Garrus. "It's funny even in bed she calls you Shepard. Were you just having sex, or have you already resorted to playing some sort of game up there?" Asked Garrus.
"I thought we weren't gonna talk about it. Replied Shepard.
"Your right sorry. So I here Xen is here." Stated Garrus.
"That women is crazy, like mad scientists crazy." Said Jacob.
"True, but she's got one hell of a body."
"Wait, Xen are you really that hard up."
"No, just saying what I would do with her. Raan's not bad either. Shepard and jacob looked at Garrus trying to figure him out. Okay maybe I'm a little hard up."
"You just got a thing for Quarians, don't you? Its the challenge of getting their suit off." Suggested Shepard.
"Well if they look anything like Tali, I'll undress everyone I can. In fact, excuse me." Said Garrus. Garrus stood up and walked out the main battery.
"Raan's in the Med lab." Said Shepard loudly.
"Well I guess I'm done." Said Jacob, about to close his computer.
"No, your not. Let me show you how a real soldier plays." Said Shepard. Shepard took Garrus computer, and started to created his own profile.
"You really think you can take me, commander. Me and Garrus have been playing for months now." Said Jacob
"I think I've got this." They started their game, and Shepard acted as if he had no idea what he was doing. "So Jacob I noticed you don't spend much time in the armory anymore."
"Really your gonna talk to me while you get your ass kicked." Said Jacob blowing Shepard's head off again. They were playing a FPS game, and the truth was Shepard had been holding the top five hundred kill death ratio on the extranet under a assumed name.
"Sure why not. I might aswell get something good out of this. So what's with the new armory do you not like it?"
"Its a little to open for me, I personally liked the lower celling and smaller room. The new armory, it feels empty in there."
"You know I didn't mean to run you out of the old armory."
"I know commander. I might spend more time down there if I could get a look at that tank, but Javik keeps it locked up, like as if we're gonna steal it."
"I'll talk to him about it, but even if I get him to open it up you won't be able to read any of the controls, they're all in Prothean." Shepard then got his head blown off again. "Actually I'm tired of getting my ass kicked, how about we go talk to Javik now?"
"Works for me. To be honest you where getting pretty boring." Jacob started to pack up his computer.
"Well maybe you should play me some time."
"I thought I just was." Said Jacob sounding confused. Shepard set Garrus's computer on the floor.
"You where playing Shepard, not white knight." Shepard and Jacob walked out of the main battery heading for Javik.
"Holly shit that's you, and you let me win. That's not cool Shepard."
"Next time I won't be so easy, and I prefer a good strategy game though."
"Me to. We'll see how you handle yourself one day." The door opened to port observation Javik was staring out into the stars.
"Commander." Said Javik without looking away.
"Not with Liara today?" Said Shepard Stating the obvious, asking why.
"The synthetic is in there. It is annoying." Said Javik.
"You don't like him either, huh?" Said Jacob asking.
Shepard looked over at Jacob. "I thought you two were getting along, the other day." Said Shepard.
"Sorry Commander, he's still a Geth, and they've killed to many good people to be forgiven. No matter how friendly they are now. I just tolerate him for your sake." Informed Jacob.
"Did you two need something, or are you just going to interrupt my silence?" Asked Javik.
"We came to ask you to unlock the tank. With you having it locked up no one can use it, but you. What if something happened to you, we'd just have a massive paper weight like that hammerhead, and that broken shuttle in the shuttle bay, that can't be fixed." Said Shepard.
"Point taken," Javik turned and walked towards the door. "but you will have to be trained to use it. It is not a easy vehicle to learn." Said Javik walking out of the room leading them to the elevator. They reached the shuttle bay, where they saw Garrus hitting on Xen.
"I didn't think he'd really do it, and It looks like he's actually getting somewhere." Said Jacob. Xen had appeared that she was interested in Garrus's proposal at first. A slap quickly came, hitting Garrus across the face, then a punch to the gut. "Oh."
"Haha ha." Javik laughed. Tali had been too absorbed into her work to notice, Shepard smiled. Xen then said something to before Garrus hobbled away towards Shepard, oddly enough it was the one time he wasn't wearing his armor.
Garrus put his hand on Shepard's shoulder. "I did it. I got a date. But I don't think I'm going on it." Said Garrus.
"Jacob said she was crazy." Replied Shepard.
"Yeah he did, now I'm going to go lay down, she hits hard." Garrus hobbled over to the elevator, going to his room. Javik, Jacob, and Shepard continued to the tank. Javik unlocked the hatch and climbed in first, Shepard and Jacob followed.
"Their is a simple virtual training program on this APC, once we enter your genetic code you will have access to the controls." informed Javik. Javik began to speak in Prothean which only Shepard could understand. "Computer we are adding a new user to this unit security code. Gamma, two, seven, one, nine, recon, recon, victor."
"Security code excepted, voice print recognized. The Vehicle is ready to add genetic sample to database." Said the VI in Prothean.
"What is he saying?" Asked Jacob to Shepard in the meantime.
"He's getting the computer ready to take a genetic sample." Explained Shepard
"Oh. Wait a genetic sample?" Said Jacob quickly asking.
"It is required to operate the vehicle." Informed Javik. Now place your hand on this panel. Javik pointed to a six by six inch square with a small spike sticking out a quarter inch by the drivers seat.
"What's with the spike?" Asked Jacob as he walked up to the panel.
"Haha, don't worry you won't have to use it."
Jacob placed his hand on the metal plate. "So I just put my hand on it like this?"
"It should have recognize your DNA. You must not be doing it right." Javik walked over to Jacob and grabbed his hand acting as if Jacob just need to turn his it. Javik then slide his hand over, and jammed it onto the spike.
Jacob yanked his hand away. "Son of a bitch. What the hell?"
"Haha ha, that never gets old." The spike retracted.
"Was that thing sterile?"
"Very sterile, just be happy it this wasn't the five point needle system." Javik turned his hand over, he had many marks from the needles.
"You didn't have to jam my finger on it."
"You where scared. I did you a favor."
"Will I have to do this every time, or just this time."
"Next time just prick your finger it needs a large sample the first time."
"Genetics code excepted, Human, primary language English, welcome Jacob Taylor. Would you like to activate the training program?" Asked the VI in English.
"No we're adding another new user." Replied Javik. "Your turn Commander."
"Wait its Speaking English now."
"Yes it is, it has learned your language."
"DNA spike ready. Said the VI."
"Don't do what you did to Jacob." Stated Shepard firmly.
"Wouldn't dream of it. It is only fun to do it to the unsuspecting." Replied Javik. Shepard walked over to the spike, he hesitated at first then plunged his finger onto the spike. The spike retracted, Shepard pulled his hand off, and stuck his finger in his mouth. "Hurt Commander." Said Javik knowing it did.
"Genetic code excepted. Human. Primary language Prothean, ancient Prothean, English. Welcome Commander Shepard. Would you like to start the training program." Said the VI.
"I don't need the program. I can already tell you i know how to drive this thing. Said Shepard."
"Jacob Will need training though. Computer start virtual driving program, level one." Javik looked at Jacob. "Get in the seat it will teach you." Informed Javik. Jacob took his seat, and the program started.
"Good luck Jacob." Said Shepard. Shepard and Javik left Jacob in the tank.
"What are they building over there?" Asked Javik
"An EMP gun to use on Legion. We're gonna try to disabled him, and pull his memory core without killing him."
"You cannot kill a synthetic, but perhaps I could be of some assistance. There are several EMP weapons in the APC."
"Really? You mean to tell me, you kept EMP weapons in the Tank, but not no normal weapons of any kind?"
"It is a APC not a tank, a tank is much bigger." Javik spoke commandingly getting the attention of Xen and Tali for a moment.
"Javik it's a tank. It's bigger then a M-35 mako, and that's a tank. So this is a tank."
Javik shook his head. "I'll be back." Javik disappeared into the tank for a moment before coming back out with what looked like a arc pistol.
"So why did you keep EMP weapons, but not a normal weapon?"
"You have Shot a synthetic before, standard weapons prove only marginally infective. This will kill them and you."
"Why did you ask for a pistol, if you had these then?"
"Limited power, when they run out they are to be discarded."
"I'm surprised you did have shock mods, for regular weapons. I can make pretty short work of a Geth with one of those."
"Shock mods where unreliable, and your Geth must not be a sturdy opponent."
"I've never had a problem out of mine. I'll show you how to make one later. Let's go show them what we've got her. I think they'll appreciate this." Shepard held the gun in his hand, examining it as they walked towards Tali and Xen, trying to figure out how he could have know of something he'd never seen. Reaching Tali and Xen, Shepard had finally come to the conclusion that he had never seen the weapon before his vision, that it was the Reapers who introduced him to the weapon, With minor mental translation from himself. Xen took notice of the weapon noticing its advance design, Tali soon followed.
"What do we have here." Asked Xen putting out her hand in request to look at it. Shepard handed her the pistol. "Its very sleek in design." Xen held the pistol looking down the sights, she slipped pulling the trigger. The shot hit a wall, leaving a electrical discharge to happen on the wall. "Huh, This is why I am a scientists, and not a soldier." Xen noticed the electrical discharge on the wall. Their was no scratch or burn from the weapon. "Your weapon is a inefficient model, I could make better."
"My people worked for many years to construct such a weapon. How could you improve upon it, when your building that?" Asked Javik, referencing the EMP gun that looked like a shop vacuum.
"We're working with limited resources." Stated Tali in response.
"It's very simple. What is your name?" Asked Xen.
"Javik." Replied Javik.
"Its very simple Javik. I'm obviously much smarter then your people." Said Xen with pride.
"Smarter, I doubt it, your people took longer then the humans to master the art of fire."
"Be that as it may, look who stood technologically superior until our little accident, and still we are superior. Now as for your weapon. Your delivery system is all wrong." Javik quickly snapped back, and Shepard pulled Tali away from Xen and Javik's arguing.
"They're perfect for each other." Whispered Shepard.
"I know, they both think they're better then everyone. Did you catch Xen and Garrus earlier, he really thought he had a chance?" Said Tali slightly giggling.
"According to Garrus he got the date, but after Xen hit him he changed his mind."
"When did she hit him, I missed that. It doesn't matter Xen is old. I don't understand, why he would want her?"
"He thinks she's got a nice body." Shepard rolled his eyes. "He was even talking about Raan."
Tali Jerked her head back Shocked. "He better not."
"I don't think he will, he said he was going to lay down, Xen hit him pretty hard." Shepard looked back over to see Javik walking off towards the Tank. "Maybe not so perfect." Shepard and Tali walked over to Xen.
"That man is so argumentative, if he wasn't full of ancient bacteria I would." Said Xen being cut off.
"I think we get the picture Xen. So will this work on Legion?" Asked Shepard.
"I'll have to adjust the power output so we don't fry it, but it definitely better then starting from scratch. I think I could manufacture my modified design in about four months. These particular weapons are to wasteful, his people where wasteful, that is why they lost the war with the Reapers."
"You don't know that."
"This weapon is evidence enough, but no matter. All I care about is getting our planet back, and returning the Geth to their proper owner."
"So how long until we can get on with this?"
"Just give me a few minutes to set the power."
"I'll get Legion down here. You'll have to make the shot count, he can't know what we're doing."
"I'll take the shot. We don't need another accidental shot going off." Said Tali.
"Get it ready then, and hide that EMP generator." Said Shepard.
"I could use some help getting it in the shuttle." Shepard, and Tali walked over and lifted the generator walking it back to the shuttle.
"So where is Xen going to dissect Legion? We don't have the equipment here."
"We're going to have to bring it to Xen's lab."
"So a special trip to the migrant fleet then? Because I'm not letting Legions memory core out of my sight."
"I guess so." Shepard and Tali set the generator down. "Your not going to go rescue anymore Quarian girls over their right?"
"No, I filled my quota already."
"What if I need rescuing?"
"Well I guess I'll be leaving you behind then, huh. Besides I've got another Quarian on the ship I think she could replace you." Tali hit Shepard in the chest, a sort of love tap.
"You leave me behind and I will haunt you."
"Good, I want you to haunt me, I've got to keep you around somehow." Shepard gave Tali a smack on her behind. Come on Xen's probably done. Shepard, and Tali walked out of Raan and Xen's shuttle walking back to Xen. "Is it ready?"
"Ready as ever, let's hope this doesn't fry it." Said Xen handing the pistol to Tali.
"Where are you going to take the shot from." Asked Shepard to Tali.
"I'm not sure, I could take him at close rang when he gets off the elevator, but if he sees me its over." Said Tali
"Direct him to board the tank." Said Javik walking back from the tank. "He will have his back to you. The moment he does, shoot him. You can take your shot from behind the shuttle."
"That will work I guess, but how do we get him to board the tank?" Asked Tali.
Shepard crossed his arms thinking for a moment. "I'm at a loss here, just about anything we do could tip him off."
"So where back to blasting him the moment he comes back through the elevator then?" Said Tali asking.
"Why not just go up to Liara's room and blast him there." Suggested Jacob walking up to them.
"It couldn't be that easy." Said Tali.
"Why not? Go in there. Act like your there to speak to Liara. Legion will leave his back to you, and you shoot him. Simple as that." Everyone gave Jacob a look like it wouldn't work. "Your all over complicating things, I'm telling you it will work." Said Jacob.
"I guess we might aswell try it." Said Shepard. "I'm gonna need help dragging him down here though."
"We'll come with you, we'll have to disable him fast once you knock him out, they don't stay down long." Said Tali. Shepard, Tali, Xen, and Javik started to walk away to the elevator.
"Hey Javik, that driving program is easy you got anything harder?" Asked Jacob
Javik turned around. "Haha ha I've got something for you." Javik walked back towards the tank.
Shepard, Tali, and Xen entered the CIC. "Tali is your comm on?" Tali turned on her comm.
"It is now." Said Tali.
"Alright you know what to do." Said Shepard. Shepard walked over to Liara's door, taking a deep breath before entering. Shepard had hid the pistol in the back of his pants. The door opened to Liara's room, and Shepard walked in, Legion looked over at Shepard. "Liara I need to talk to you." Shepard moved further in the room. Legion looked back at his isolated computer.
"Shepard, you should really knock. What's this about?" Said Liara walking up hastefully. Shepard quickly pulled the pistol swinging it in the direction of Legion. Liara threw up a barrier to protect her self closing her eyes, thinking she was the target. Legion turned to Liara, hearing the barrier come up, leaving Legion completely unaware. Shepard pulled the trigger, and Legion dropped to the floor. Shepard accessed his comm.
"Alright he's down." Liara opened her eyes.
"What, what's going on? Why did you shoot Legion?" Tali and Xen entered the room and started disabling Legion completely.
"We had to disable him, so we could pull his memory core."
"Right, you had to disable him without him knowing, or he'd erase any incriminating evidence, but you scared the hell out of me, next time tell me before you do something like that."
"If its any conciliation you where perfect." Liara got a smile across her face.
"So what's going to happen to Legion now." Asked Shepard to Tali and Xen
"Provided we didn't just fry him, we'll take him back to the Moreh, scan its memory core then, put him back together. It'll be none the wiser. Do you mind helping us now." Said Xen demanding the help. Shepard put the pistol back into the back of his pants, and walked over to Legion, lifting his torso. Liara went back to her work. They walked out the door carrying Legion to the elevator.
"Commander what happened to Legion?" Asked Kelly.
Shepard stopped to answer Kelly. "We had to disable him. We're going to pull his memory core, to see if he's telling the truth." Replied Shepard.
"Its a shame, I thought you could trust Legion."
"He's a machine Kelly, he can lie without remorse."
"I guess you're right Commander. I just hope you trust the rest of us?"
"I do Kelly." Shepard continued into the elevator taking Legion to the shuttle. They placed Legion on the floor. So how long is this gonna take? Asked Shepard.
"Three or four days. Two if where lucky." Answered Xen.
"You can't be serious."
"I'm dead serious. the inscription on a Geth memory core can be heavy. Now truth is we could find our answers in the first couple minutes, but the odds of that are very slim." Xen then accessed her comm "Raan It's time to go, did you find out how big it is?" There was a momentary pause. "Damn, alright we're ready to go so come on." Shepard shook his head.
"I don't know if I like leaving the Normandy that long. Three or four days." Said Shepard talking in a low tone to Tali.
"I don't either, but it's this, or we leave Legion alone with her." Said Tali.
"I know, I better let Garrus know." Shepard activated his comm. "Garrus are you there...? Garrus."
"He must be asleep."
"I know how to get him up. I've got to go get my suit anyway, here hold on to this." Shepard handed Tali the pistol." Shepard walked off the shuttle.
"Tell Garrus I'm sorry about our dates." Yelled Xen to Shepard.
Shepard headed for the elevator taking it up to his room. He entered the room putting on his suit, leaving his helmet off for now. Shepard also grabbing his weapons aswell, he was taking any chances after Tuchanka. Shepard walked out of his room, and took a last look at it, before locking the door, he was sure he was going to miss it. "Come on Urz." Shepard led Urz to the elevator going to the crew deck. Shepard and Urz walked over to Garrus's room, opening the door, Garrus was asleep. "Go get him." Urz ran into Garrus room, and jumped on his bed licking his face until Garrus finally got up.
Garrus pushed him away, and sat up. "What do you need Shepard?" Asked Garrus sounding cranky. Garrus sat up on his bed.
"I need you to watch the ship while I'm gone." Answered Shepard.
"Sure no problem, how long? A couple hours?" Urz ran back out to Shepard.
"Try days Garrus."
"Days? Where are you going?"
"To Xen's lab ship. We disabled Legion, and were taking him to be examined."
"Right you said something about knocking out Legion the other day." Garrus rubbed his eyes. "You need me to watch Urz to?"
"Yeah."
"Alright not a problem." Garrus stood up and walked out of the room."
"Keep him away from your boots, or he'll chew them up. Oh and you give him four pyjaks a day, or Wrex says he gets cranky. Theirs a varren box somewhere on the deck, I thi-."
"I know Shepard, your acting like your not coming back. I can handle him, just go do your thing. The sooner you go, the sooner you get back."
Shepard kneeled down, and started petting Urz. "You be a good boy now, and you better still like me when I get back." Shepard stood up. "Your sure you got this?"
"Yes, just make sure you tell Joker before you go."
"Okay then see you in three, or four days. Two if I'm lucky."
"Later Shepard." Shepard walked away towards the elevator.
"Don't break the ship while I'm gone." Hollered Shepard before boarding the elevator. Shepard then accessed his comm again this time linking to Joker. "Joker I'm leaving the ship for a few days. Garrus is in charge."
"Oh that's just great, look I'm sorry about earlier. It was a accident, and I froze, it won't happen again. Just please don't leave me with Garrus." Said Joker.
"Sorry Joker I have to. Think of this as punishment for earlier." Replied Shepard.
"That's why I apologized. Just don't except the ship to be in one piece when you get back." Stated Joker. The elevator door opened, and Shepard stepped out into the shuttle bay.
"It better be, Shepard out." Shepard walked over to the Tank and looked in.
"Haha ha, your doing good, but your still far behind my score." Said Javik. Jacob was in some sort of combat simulation projected on the windshield.
"Hey you two be good, I've got to go take care of this thing with Legion. Garrus is in charge." Said Shepard.
"Understood Shepard." Said Jacob. Shepard pulled his head out of the tank and headed back for the shuttle. Raan was back in the shuttle with Xen and Tali. Xen was now cradling her new Spitfire.
"Are we ready?" Asked Raan.
"One more thing." Shepard looked out of the shuttle. "EDI keep the ship safe." Said Shepard.
"I will Shepard." Stated EDI replying.
"Now I'm ready." Said Shepard putting on his helmet.
