Disclaimer: I don't own Mass Effect, its characters or plots. I own my OCs and anything original in this.

This is very short but all I could think of to end this. I might rewrite this if I get better/more ideas to add to this.

I'm sorry this took forever. I started my senior year of school, I started a new (Naruto) story and I've just been busy. To be honest I forgot about this story and I couldn't think of anything else to add to this. I waited to post it in case I thought up more ideas.

Epilogue


Dawn was in her suit, her armor lying on the ground next to where she sat on the ground next to her bed. She heard the door open and Kolyat walked in.

"You alright?" He asked looking down at her.

"I'm fine." She said closing her eyes briefly. "Just… tired." She leaned her head back against Kolyat's bed as he sat down on it. "I almost died a few times today… I watched my friend die… there were fucking husks." She added the last one with a dead chuckle.

"They are very… creepy." Kolyat agreed with a nod. "But you survived. Shepard Survived. My dad and Garrus survived." Dawn looked up at Kolyat.

"You survived." Dawn said with a smile. Kolyat smiled back. "So what happens now?" Dawn asked.

"Well, I talked to my dad before about if we survived this."

"And?"

"We're going to the Citadel. He's going to retire and get an apartment and I agreed to get one close byso we could keep in touch." Kolyat said. Dawn nodded. "What about you?" Dawn chuckled.

"I have absolutely no idea." Dawn said shaking her head.

"You have a place on Omega right?" Kolyat asked. Dawn nodded. "So… why don't you move to the Citadel?" He asked. "…With my dad o-or me, or neither. You could get your own place."

"There's still the problem of what Garrus is doing." Dawn said.

"Why don't you go ask him?" Dawn let out a sigh.

"I'll go ask later." She moved to lie on the floor. "I'm just gunna lay here for a few minutes." Kolyat chuckled.

"You do that. I'll be right back." He got up and left the room. Dawn sat up and sighed.


Dawn took a shower and changed into a pair of jeans and a dark green tank top and pulled on a pair of black boots. She walked to the main batteries and when the doors opened Garrus turned around to face her.

"Dawn, I'm glad you're here, I wanted to talk to you." He said. Dawn raised an eyebrow. "I'm going home."

"Home?"

"To Palevan."

"Turian homeworld." Dawn nodded. "Right."

"Yeah." Garrus said.

"Um, I was actually going to ask what you were going to do now that the mission is over so… that answers that question." Garrus nodded.

"What about you?" Garrus asked.

"Um well Kolyat told me that he and Thane were going to get apartments on the Citadel." Garrus nodded.

"So you're going to go live with Thane?"

"Well, I don't really know what else to do." Dawn said with a half-hearted chuckle.

"Alright.."

"You better message me every day." Dawn said with a small smile.

"Of course." Garrus said with a smile. Suddenly EDI popped up.

"Miss Cole. Shepard has requested a meeting with you in the Captain's Cabin." EDI said.

"Um, okay, thank you EDI." Dawn said before EDI went away. Dawn looked at Garrus. "Well, I'll see you later then." Garrus nodded.

"I'll see you later." Garrus said before Dawn left.


Dawn took the elevator up to Shepard's cabin and knocked on the door. The doors opened and she stepped inside.

"Um, you wanted to see me Commander?" Dawn asked as Shepard looked over from standing by his desk.

"Yes." He put down the data pad he was holding and turned to face her. "How would you like to officially join the Alliance Navy and continue serving on the Normandy?" Shepard asked with a smirk. Dawn's mouth opened and she blinked.


So this story is now finished BUT I'm going to be working on the sequel: Blood Gun Bonded when I can.

THANK YOU to everyone who stuck with this story and reviewed.

If anyone has requests/ideas for the sequel I would love to hear them; just PM me. ^_^
