Mass Effect Shepard Rises.
As he walked towards the salarian camp he watches as the world spins and he feels all light headed he falls to the ground with a groan "john are you ok?" he watches as a blurry image of Tali runs towards him "everything's spinning." he watches as Wrex looks over him "he's ok just overdid with the biotic's his body his not use to it, he should get use to it though." he opens his Omni-tool and uses the medical program to deliver a shot to his system." feeling as the rush of adrenalin rushes through his veins he stands up and walks back towards the camp.
Garrus drove the Mako towards the second AA tower sitting in at engineering terminal he turns to kaidan as there driving "you sure the hack on the first AA tower will hold?" he watches kaidan nod "yeah once I activate the program it will disable both AA towers long enough for the Normandy to land." he turns back to the terminal "AA tower coming up lots of Geth activity." rounding the corner the Mako's main gun blast at a group of Geth turning them into piles of burning metal, the shields on the Mako flare "snipers on top of the gates, Williams take them out." kaidan shouts inside the Mako, "on it." Ashley says, Garrus looks at his terminal as shakes and a loud thump is heard "watch out there's a rocket trooper hiding in cover, shields down 15%"
Kaidan throws the Mako behind cover "Ashley take that rocket trooper out." the Mako shakes as the main gun shoots, Kaidan hit's the throttle and dodges as a grenade lands were the Mako just was, hitting the auto targeting for the machine guns mounted on the front he jumps and dodges fire until all targets are down "all clear Kaidan." as the team jump out they run up the stairs and across the top of the gates into a room built into the mountain side, running up to the terminal he opens the gates and sends his program into the AA tower mainframe "ok lets go meet Shepard." he says to omega team as they walk back to the Mako.
As john approached the salarian camp's captain he motions for his crew to stop and stand guard, coming face to face with the captain "who are you?" the salarian asks "commander Shepard SPECTRE." he watches as the salarian visibly relaxes "thank god our message got through I'm captain Kirrahe of the 3rd infiltration regiment STG." he nods "ok captain what's the situation?" he watches as the salarian studies him for a moment "we have found Saren's main base of operations here, we sent a message to the Citadel requesting a fleet." john nods "were your back up." he looks on as Kirrahe paces up and down "but we asked them to send a fleet." he nods "that may be but whatever you sent was just static, so I was sent to investigate. Look I know its not ideal but you must have a plan?"
As John listened to the salarian captain Tali wondered off, she found herself sitting on the sand watching as the tide wash up to her feet and then back again such a beautiful world and I cant even feel the water on my feet, the sun warming my skin or the breeze in my face sighing she shakes her head and looks out to sea watching the sun twinkle on the sea she hears birds chirping and looks to the skin watching them fly by, the wind blows on her mask and through her filters she can just make out the smell of salt looking at the ground she can see crabs and other creatures scurrying around a silent tear rolls down her cheek if the Geth hadn't have driven my ancestors from my home world I could feel all that life has to offer but instead I have to make do with the suit.
Wrex over heard the salarian "we believe Saren has found a cure for the Genophage." walking over he cuts in the conversation "how is that possible?" he narrows his eyes at the salarian "we don't know but it matters little we have to destroy this facility." anger boils in him as he takes a step forward "I don't think so, this is possibly the only chance for my people." he feels Shepard's hand on his shoulder "Wrex it ok I will handle this." he turns to Shepard and bears his teeth and walks towards a lake leaving Shepard and the salarian captain behind, when he reaches the lake he pulls out his shotgun and just shoots the ground.
John watches as Wrex mindlessly shoots the ground "you should go talk to him." he looks over his shoulder at Ashley "I will just, watch my back in case things go south." he slowly walks towards Wrex, as he closes the distance Wrex looks at him "this isn't right Shepard." he nods "I know Wrex believe me I do, but you know this must happen." he watches as anger flares in Wrex eyes and his biotic's flare "does it, no I don't think so from were I'm standing the line between friend and foe are getting a little blurry," he pulls his pistol out at the same time as Wrex lifts his shotgun "look Wrex Saren's cure wont help the Krogan and you know it, look at what the salarians did to your people do you believe Saren will be merciful." as they both look into each others eyes "yeah I guess your right, ok Shepard lets do this just one things." he nods "anything." a smile spreads Wrex's scared face "when we find Saren I want his head." he nods and lowers his pistol and holds out his hand "deal." Wrex reaches out and grabs his hand and shakes it "good just let me know when your ready to go." with that Wrex turns his back on him and walks off.
He walks back to Ashley who's face is shocked "what the hell commander I didn't think you could talk down a Krogan." he sighs heavily "I thought it wouldn't work for a minute there Ashley." he looks around the camp and spots Tali sitting alone "I'm going to see how Tali is." he says before walking towards Tali.
Tali was lost in thought when she felt a hand land on her shoulder "hey Tali you okay?" she looks and watches as John sits down next to her "yes I'm just admiring the view." she feels his hand slide down her arm until it grabs her hand and there fingers interlock, she looks down at there hands it was an odd sight but some how it felt right she takes a shaky breathe "I'm sorry." she feels his hand grip hers tighter "what for." she looks at the sea "you deserve to be with someone better.." she didn't get to finish Johns face was inches from her mask his eyes ablaze "Tali listen to me, ok I don't want anyone else I only want you." unable to look away she sees the care and affection in his eyes unable to speak she only nods "good, now then miss vas Normandy no more being silly." she shakes her head "so now I'm vas Normandy am I?" she asks her voice dripping in a sultry voice "I haven't even given you a gift." she watches a sly smile spread his face "well you have given me the best gift ever." she watches him get up "what that then?" she asks and watches as he leans towards her his face so close to hers "you have given me you." he says as he places a soft kiss on the side of her helmet and walks away, she watches him go with a smile on her face her hand touches were he kissed and she feels her face burn in a blush.
