Leena's POV
"Aw hell no not more sand!" Cypher protested as the transport that was used to take us to the Rite of Passage site came to a stop. "F**k!"
"You can shower your scales off when this is over Cy," I told the Metal Dragon as our group exited the transport.
"This is Tuchanka's most recent scar, the last surface city to fall in the rebellion" the Shaman explained as he led us to our destination. "The Keystone was at the heart, it has survived wars and the passage, it endures like the krogan"
The Shaman stopped outside a structure and it was obvious this was where the rite would take place. Cypher still complained about the wind and sand, but I ignored him.
"If you wish to join Clan Urdnot, you must contemplate the Keystone and its trials" the Shaman continued until we finally stopped. "I wish all of you luck, especially you Grunt"
The elder krogan then took his leave and once he was gone we all got our weapons out and Shepard activated the Keystone.
Parts of the structure moved and a male krogan spoke over the intercom. From some nearby tunnels emerged some Varen and immediately we began to shoot at them. Cypher wanted to burn some but I advised against it. We may need him later when we went up against other beasts.
Grunt was having the time of his life shooting down the Varen and I didn't blame him. He was after all trying to prove his worth as one of his kind. One Varen almost snuck up on Grunt but I shot it before it touched him.
"Thanks, Leena!" Grunt shouted during the gunfire.
For several minutes we dealt with the Varen until it was obvious we finished them all off. Shepard activated the Keystone again and like before another part of the structure moved and the intercom spoke again.
A big-ass Harvester landed nearby before taking flight. It deposited several Klixen and it was round two in the ritual. The Klixen were a little harder to kill due to their shells but finding some soft spots did the trick in finishing them off. Several times the Harvester returned to drop off more Klixen and but the ugly bastards were no match for us.
Cypher sneezed after we finished killing the last of the Klixen. The Metal Dragon was getting eager to fight and something in my gut told me he was definitely needed for round three of whatever was coming next. So the Metal Dragon jumped off from my shoulder and transformed into his larger state.
I got onto his back and gripped onto his metal neck spikes before he took flight. As Cy hovered overhead Shepard went to the Keystone and activated it. Like before the intercom spoke as did the structure move about.
"Oh shit! Y'all it's a Thresher Maw!" I shouted to the others below as the ground began to shake. Thresher Maws were dangerous and Cypher roared in glee as the ugly ass alien beast emerged from the ground.
Cypher immediately went to work and began to use his dragon fire to burn the vulnerable areas of the Thresher Maw while the others fired rounds at it. The Maw shrieked before diving back under the ground and it popped back up a little farther from where it was a second ago. Cypher roared at it and the Thresher Maw turned its attention to the Metal Dragon. Cy then began a flight pattern and I realized he was distracting the Thresher Maw so the others below could kill it.
I hung on as Cy continued his taunting of the ugly ass alien and he was enjoying every minute of it. After some time the Thresher Maw was beginning to tire and when Grunt made a lethal shot into the carnivore the Thresher Maw shrieked and Cypher opened his mouth and let loose with his dragon fire.
"I hate those things" Cy growled when the Thresher Maw was nothing more than ash. He then landed on the ground and let me get off of his back before reverting to his smaller form. As I picked up my pal Grunt said we had company and I had a feeling Urvenk was here.
Sure enough, it was him and some other krogan. After some exchange of words, we had another fight on our hands with this asshole krogan. Taking down Urvenk's men wasn't that hard and despite hating the sand and wind Cypher took flight and landed on top of Urvenk's head. The Metal Dragon used his talons to claw the hell out of his eyes and he took flight before Grunt made the killing shot.
"That's it I'm sick of this planet" Cy growled as the Rite of Passage ended.
We were brought before the Shaman and Grunt bowed before him.
"You have passed the Rite of Passage, earning the honor of clan and name, many survive but it has been years since a thresher maw fell, your names shall live in glory, Grunt you are Urdnot, you may now own property, join the army, and apply to serve under a battlemaster"
"Shepard is my battlemaster, he has no match"
The Shaman seemed satisfied with Grunt's words and congratulated him as well as being given some weapons.
"Are you sure you still don't want any dances from Omega?" Garrus asked Grunt
"Garrus Vakarian! Get your damn mind out of the gutter!" I reprimanded my fiancé.
My outburst made the males laugh and I facepalmed muttering I needed a drink.
Back on the Normandy
Still Leena's POV
The moment we got back onto the Normandy, Cypher had Shepard take him to his quarters to use his shower to rinse off the sand and whatnot from his scales. I actually decided to take a shower myself since Tuchanka made me feel gritty from the wind and sand. Before we left we said goodbye to Wrex and our former squadmate was pleased Grunt passed his Rite of Passage.
I eventually turned the shower off and walked out of the bathroom in nothing but a towel on.
"You know Garrus sometimes you have a dirty mind," I told my turian mate when I spotted him on the bed. He had just showered as well but somewhere else. He wore only his pants and I did my best not to stare at his physique. My fiancé only chuckled before standing up and approached me.
The turian male grabbed me and drew me towards him. He claimed my lips in a fiery kiss and he soon had me beneath him on our bed. He growled when he saw the towel was blocking his view and he swiped it off of my body.
Using one of his hands he held my waist down while using the other to part my legs and soon his tongue licked my soaked womanhood and I arched my back in pleasure. So this was his punishment for smacking his arm earlier.
"Oh god please more" I begged.
The moment I said that his tongue slid into my core and began to taste me all over from the inside. In mere moments I was at this turian's mercy and I let him taste me to his heart's content. When I reached my climax my insides let loose and Garrus had the pleasure of drinking my juices.
"You have no idea how delicious you taste Leena" Garrus purred as he pulled away from my sex.
To prove his point he licked his mouth and I tried to kick him but he grabbed my foot and began to kiss my ankle. My fiancé then came upon me and he buried his face against the nape of my neck. The rest of my punishment was him holding me down as he kissed or licked the parts of my body he wanted to give attention to.
