She's the real Reaper
Still pissed off about stuff, yay! So I'm gonna write about Spider killing people and making them get their shit together by force, double yay!
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
"Do you have to leave? I'm going to miss you." Alex told Spider as she prepared to board the Normandy at the docks. She had spent her time away cleaning up Omega much like Vakarian did, except her vigilante name wasn't quite as nice as 'archangel' considering all that was left of the criminals when she had finished was blood and gore smearing the walls and floor. Not that it mattered much to Spider, she was left alone by Aria especially after their last meeting and the other gangs were warned that if they continued to operate on omega, they wouldn't live long.
Smiling at Alex, Spider pulled the other woman into a hug. "I've left something back at your apartment. You should use it to get off of this station and go wherever you want." Spider whispered to her.
Pulling away Alex wore a strange look of puzzlement overcoming her. This prompted Spider to further explain.
"There is a great force coming to destroy the civilization you have all built, if I could use my full power I assure you they would be turned to ash before me. But I can't so I have to take precautions, I want you to live through the dark times ahead so promise me you will get out of here." Spider almost seemed desperate and this is what really caught Alex's attention.
"I promise... so long as you do the same." Alex said with determination.
"Darling you're speaking with the one who fought literal gods and won, I'll be fine." Spider spoke to her fondly, the last time someone had actually cared so much was a long, long time ago. It felt nice to have that again.
At last they separated and Spider turned to board the Normandy. Waving a last goodbye the two went their own ways. Perhaps they would meet again, but it would be some time and under difficult circumstances Spider had no doubt.
…...
"So." Shepard started as she greeted Spider. "How was your leave of absence? I hear the population of Omega has been halved in just a few days."
"Someone once told me that if he were to kill another the amount of killers in the world would remain the same." Shepard looked at her with interest and gestured for her to continue. "My response was to slaughter his top five villains and leave a not saying the amount of killers in the world was down by five."
Confusion overtook Shepard's features. "But wouldn't it be four?" She asked.
"I was leaving soon anyway so I took it off." Spider replied. "Anyway, when we get time I'd like to take a trip to the Citadel. Your council has done enough damage to warrant my attention"
"You do know that it's my job to protect the council members right?" Shepard asked her.
"Yet I can't just stand by as they allow the batarians to continue slavery practices, treat other species as lesser because they didn't get to the Citadel sooner or were made a client race. They selfishly place priority of their own species above others." Spider was passionate about the injustice shown by the council as you may have been able to tell.
"Good points, I could probably add a few of my own but doesn't change that if you threatened them I'd have to stop you." She told the literal god in front of her.
Smiling at Shepard, Spider replied with, "Not if you aren't there."
As the understanding dawned on Shepard, she flashed a wolfish grin, just because she couldn't change the way the council acted, didn't mean Spider couldn't. And if she wasn't there to stop her then it was a shame, a real big shame she had decided to go have lunch with her crew just when they needed her.
"I can get behind that." Shepard told her. "Joker! Set coarse for the Citadel." She ordered.
"You got it Commander." Joker responded.
…...
Spider entered the elevator to see Tali, neither of them had really talked to each other but what better way was there to get to know somebody than on an elevator?
Just as she opened her mouth to start speaking there was a sudden screech and Spider felt weightless. It had happened so fast the doors hadn't even closed. Looking down she noticed the floor was falling only to all to soon stop and she as well as Tali came crashing down to meet it.
Tali landed in a heap, though she seemed to only suffer minor injuries. Spider had only dropped to one knee and rose again to get a better grip on her situation. They were trapped in the elevator between floors so forcing the doors open wouldn't be a valid solution.
Tali had seemingly recovered and was now in a sitting position, Spider offered her hand which she accepted and was helped to her feet.
"Thanks." She said.
Spider smiled in response. "How are you feeling?" She asked.
The quarian looked alarmed and quickly checked over her suit. "Oh no! Keelah no!" She panicked. There was a tear in the fabric on the right hip, and that was bad news since they were stuck on an elevator with rescue not happening in less than an hour, she may as well be dead.
"Is there something wrong?" Spider inquired.
"My suit, it's torn." Tali managed to tell her.
She had read about this, the immune system of a quarian is extremely weak and so need those special suits. Spider stepped towards Tali and put her hands on the younger woman's arms. "Calm down."
Taking shaky breaths Tali took a few minutes to fully calm herself. "Okay, we can get through this."
"Now if you want to get through this I'm going to have to use restoration magic, as a warning this isn't just going to give your body limited immunity, even in this universe where my magic is weakened it will have a permanent effect." Spider talked to the young woman in front of her.
"You mean my body will change? How?" She asked Spider.
"I mean that your immune system will be better than someone who's been pumped full of medication. So in other words that means no sick days off of work, can you live with that?" Spider said this in a deadly serious voice.
Tali almost sounded like she could cry. "YES!"
"Alright, just stay still." Spider told her and released the quarian. Her hand hovered over the tear in the suit and a warm golden glow streamed from her and into Tali, holding there for a few moments Spider gave Tali something every quarian wants but wouldn't dare think possible.
"Something tells me that when I get free time after this is over, I'm going to have a lot of work to do." Spider said in a comedic tone.
"You would do this for all of us?" Tali inquired even through the mask Spider could tell she was positively shining after she nodded affirmation to the question.
Spider was rushed towards and given a very grateful hug. Smiling the Dovahkiin hugged her back, this was a nice way to make another friend amongst the crew.
…...
As the Normandy docked on the Citadel Shepard was with Spider by the door.
"Remember, if you kill them I'll have to stop you. All of us will." Her eyes showed a hardness Spider recognised.
"We both know the entire galaxy united wouldn't even leave a scratch." Spider replied. "But if there's one thing I won't do it's kill my friends, I have too few left." She added.
Shepard nodded believing that to be acceptable. The bay doors opened and Spider stepped out into the hallway and almost immediately alarms started blaring and C-sec had their weapons trained on her.
"HANDS IN THE AIR!" The captain who was holding a pistol shouted to her. Spider couldn't help but smile.
Upon hearing the commotion Shepard exited the Normandy but stopped when she saw what was happening. Looking from C-sec to Spider back and forth confusion was furrowed of her brow. What the hell could she have possibly done in less the five seconds?! Shepard thought to herself
"Don't look at me." Spider told her. "All I did was walk outside."
The captain began to approach, seeing Shepard gave him some confidence. "Sorry Commander but she's coming with us."
"And where do you plan on taking her?" Shepard asked taking a protective stance in front of her friend.
Sighing the captain began to explain. "She's wanted on crimes I can't discuss without council permission, her trail is due immediately with the judges being the council themselves."
"Then what are we waiting for?" Asked Spider. "Let's go." Her thought process being that it would save time rather than having to organize a meeting herself.
"We'll have to take possession of your weapons." He eyed her.
Shrugging, Spider unsheathed her sword and dagger then handed them to Shepard. "Good enough?" She asked and upon seeing the Captains nod Spider set off towards the rest of the C-sec officers who raised their weapons at her again as she closed in.
It didn't stop her however and she just kept coming even after she heard a faint warning coming from the Captain before he gave the order, every officer fired upon her in a rapid assault. Every one with excellent accuracy hitting Spider in the body and head until every one of them had emptied their thermal clip.
Each one of them were slack jawed at what happened next. The figure that had been riddled with their bullets was still walking towards them as if she felt nothing at all. It wasn't until she met the closest of them and grabbed his weapon from his hands the rest of them snapped out of it.
Holding up the assault rifle Spider decided it was time for a demonstration, taking it in both hands she snapped it in half as if it were nothing more than a twig and threw the pieces to either side of her.
"There isn't a single weapon in this entire universe with enough power to make me feel threatened in the slightest. I suggest you remember that when you think about shooting at me again." Turning back to the Captain Spider spoke again. "Shall we go?"
…...
The room Spider found herself in looked rather like a meeting room instead of where a trail might take place. She was sat on one side of long table, three chairs on the opposite side and the door a little to the right, behind them. She was handcuffed to the table with a mass effect field around her hands for good measure, she was assured that not even a krogan could lift a finger through it.
It didn't take long before an Asari, a Turian and a Salarian entered the room along with two SPECTRE guards who took positions at either side of Spider as the council members sat down. The Asari councillor placed a file on the table and opened it. Only a few pages were contained within and most were pictures taken from the helmet cams of her friends, one in particular was her cutting through the head of a thresher maw.
"Who are you?" Asked the Asari. "You appear seemingly out of nowhere and suddenly you're performing impossible feats, just earlier you should have been torn apart by gunfire yet here you are without a scratch."
"My name is Spider." She answered simply.
"We need more than that." The Salarian cut in. "History, both familial and personal, why you came here and how it is you are so gifted"
Smiling, Spider put on a contemplative face before answering. "My name is Spider Alyssia PoisonBlood, my father was advisor to the emperor of Tamriel. After I escaped to go on a my own adventure I ended up in some trouble and was accidentally deemed a criminal during a civil war and almost executed. My enemy quite unwittingly saved me from this fate by intervening and burning the entire place to the ground. Long story short I discovered I had the power to take the souls of a certain species and use specific words of power, I slaughtered my way to becoming strong enough to face him before devouring his soul too, after that I figured out a way to take the souls of any living creature so that their ever lasting energy is added to my own strength."
The disbelief on their faces was clear as daylight, yet that didn't deter Spider in the slightest.
"If you're finding this difficult to believe then I don't blame you but I would ask you to remember my inability to die and that I have the strength to break anything you put in front of me."
"You seem to have met your match here." The turian councillor stated.
Spider raised an eye brow before snapping her arms up, this caused a small explosion as the mass effect field broke. "You were saying?" Spider taunted putting her arms back on the table.
The council members looked at each other then gestured for her to continue.
"After gaining the power of a god plus those I have killed previously I spent the next centuries adventuring, that meant that I killed many, many things that eventually gave me more than fifty times the power I gained from Alduin. Though I have had to have most of that power hidden from me by someone I trust, meaning that I can't access it all, this is only a small portion of it.
Anyway, one of my last good friends was killed and rather than allow her soul to be trapped with demons or in me I was offered the chance to let her rest in a land of peace. I took it, got transported to another world and right at the end the mad king sent me out, so I've been jumping through to different places where I help fix the major problems before moving on and eventually finding my way back to that damn king." Spider finished.
It was a lot of information to process though it was clear Spider was being vague, yet more questions were to be had.
"You haven't mentioned if you were with anyone special or had any children." One councillor noticed.
"I had a husband and son of argonian race and they were killed. All I agreed to remember was that the pain I suffered from losing them almost caused me to kill everything, both gods and men. And for any other questions I am the last of my kind and the last time I met another was when he tried to kill me and I had his own dragon tear him apart before I took all the souls he had gained including his own. Let's see, my favourite colour is still undecided yet I will admit I'm torn between violet, blue and blood red, though I believe that's only because I see it so often." Spider said the last part with wolfish smile.
"Have your experiences left you dealing with insanity?" The Asari asked her.
"It has definitely changed my outlook, where before I would be calm, quiet and help those who have wronged me, I changed where I would either be treated with respect or remind them who they are dealing with.
Suddenly Spider stood up and with great speed disarmed the guard to her right and threw the gun with such force to the guard opposite it knocked her out cold. To the original guard she had disarmed Spider had but one word. "FUS" This caused him to smash against the wall and crumple to the floor.
Spider returned to her sitting position. "Now I think it's time to discuss your misdeeds."
…...
Sorry if some of this seems rushed but eh, if you don't like it then go out and make one yourself am I right?
Thanks for reading
