Wolf Effect

Ch 4. Unexpected arrival

Date: 2183 CE

Location: ME-verse, Eden Prime

Anthony's POV

We walked through the portal then came out to see a place where I thought would never be in a million years

The place where we ended up at was Eden Prime but it wasn't just the name but this was in the Mass Effect universe & this was also when then heretic Geth started searching for the conduit along with Saren

Just before I could continue thinking I instantly started getting smacked, punched, kicked in all places by Ruby who was yelling at me "YOU FUCKING SON OF A BITCH! YOU LYING MOTHER FUCKER!"

I'm right now curled up on the ground shielding myself from getting my ass handed to me by her

Third person POV

As Ruby was beating up Anthony, Tony & Prime are recording the whole thing & are laughing their asses off as Halsey held back a laugh seeing him get smacked around by someone who he knew could beat her but restrained himself

Ratchet was curious about what everyone is doing but looked around as he spotted a dead soldier who was recently killed but didn't float over to it due to not knowing if it was safe or not but also didn't want to leave any of his companions & wanted to explore this place to find what new species, technology, & ships that this universe had to offer

-10 minutes later-

Anthony is sitting down on a rock as he looks at Halsey as Prime finished explaining some of the details about the universe & its history, Tony was looking over the body checking it to see if there is anything that it can tell them, & Ruby was looking at Anthony & said "Sorry about that but that's what happens when you go making up lies"

Anthony groans as he looks down "I'm not even going to argue with you about that" she smirked & did a victory pose which got him to smile then they heard Halsey clear her throat getting their attention

"Now I hope you two are done because Tony may have found something" all eyes are on Tony as he looked at everyone

He pulled off the soldier's dog tags then tossed them over to Prime which he caught & looked at them as Tony told everyone "Corporal Richard L. Jenkins, KIA recently, spotted tracks that indicate two people came by here so my guess is that we're right on time but if we get to the space port first then we might be able to change things up a bit?"

Prime nodded "We could save Spectre Nihlus & kill Saren-" Anthony stood up & looked at Prime

"We are not going to kill him here, if we do that then the Reapers could come here sooner, Shepard would never have been able to do all the things she would of done & worse if the Reapers, Cerberus, Shadow Broker, or worse find out about us & what we know, then the results would be catastrophic"

Prime seemed a little dumbfounded & went to talk but was already beat but Halsey "I have no knowledge of this universe but since you mentioned saving this Nihlus then I think we should get over to the location quickly" Wolfpack looked at Halsey

Ruby went ahead & nodded as she told her idea "me & Tony can stay close to Halsey & Ratchet while you & Anthony go up ahead"

Anthony nodded "Good idea Wolf-2, after this is over I'm taking you to dinner" Prime looked at Anthony for a moment until Ruby answered

"Nah I don't fall for guys who get their asses kicked by a girl" she smirked as Ratchet mimicked a laugh

Anthony was blushing red behind his helmet that his AI materialized on his shoulder "Your never gonna be able to win against her you know hat right?" He just glared at her which Ghost giggled & disappeared

Austin pulled out his Shotgun just as Anthony pulled out his Battle Rifle then the pair climbed up a hill & started running towards the space port while the rest of the group took another route to the space port but would give them both cover & spots to conceal themselves but this route was to also keep them from being seen by Shepard's squad

Location: Prothean Dig site

Third person POV

Three individuals are now standing at the dig site where the Prothean beacon was supposed to be at as one of them spoke "This is the dog site. The beacon was right here? It must of been moved"

Another individual questioned "By who? Our side? Or the Geth?"

The first individual spoke again "Hard to say. Maybe we'll know more after we checked out the research camp"

The final individual looked around a little & asked "You think anyone got out here alive?"

The first individual answered "If they were lucky, maybe hiding up in the camp. It's just on the top of this ridge. Up the ramps"

After that the individuals started walking as the first is identified Ashley Williams, the second identified as Kaiden Alenko, then the final individual who is a young woman wearing N7 armor with Rose wavy hair & Blue colored eyes as she leads the group up the ramp to the camp Ashley commented on the damage "Looks like they hit the camp hard"

Kaiden looked around being cautious as the squad unfolded their weapons & had them ready "It's a good place for a ambush. Keep your guard up" he made a tactical assessment of the area

Upon reaching the top they see some weird spikes with multiple of bodies on them as the three looked to see the spikes retract as the bodies started twitching then rose up then Kaiden responded "Oh god! They're still alive!"

"What did the Geth do to them?" The husk began growling as they started running at the group opened fire on the creatures taking the husk down quickly but one sneaked up behind the third individual, Ashley spotted the danger but saw the thing's head blown off & fell to the ground as the group turned to look at them the individual looked at Ash & smiled "Nice shot"

Ash shook her head "That wasn't me Shepard" Shepard was confused & looked around to see if someone was around but saw no sign of anyone else

Kaiden spoke up "Maybe we should keep moving, who ever it was that shot the husk we might be able to get the jump on them?"

Shepard nodded "Hopefully but first things first, we have to find the beacon" Ashley & Kaiden nodded as they continued the search but up on top of a hill was two soldiers that are in active camouflage as one of them was holding a sniper rifle

"That was a awesome shot dude" the individual nodded as he holstered his sniper "We should get moving quickly so come on Wolf-1" he started moving towards the spaceport followed him but before he did he took one last look at Shepard then starting following Wolf-4 quickly

Location: Eden Prime, Spaceport

Prime's POV

We arrived at the spaceport & are now seeing Nihlus checking the place out then I turn my helmet to look at Anthony as he brings his sniper out & I get my DMR out to look at the scene then my AI Sierra comes into view on my HUD which she appears to be focus on Nihlus

"I estimate about 2 minutes until this Saren arrives & shoots Nihlus in the back of the head & 5 minutes until Shepard arrives so boys be polite to the people that will be arriving" I smiled as I heard her estimated time knowing that I made the right move of having her with me & never replacing her noir leaving her

Anthony tapped me on the shoulder as we both looked at each other "So should we save him or let him get killed?"

"Save him of course, jeez man we're Spartans, it's our job to stop any threat to humanity & their allies" told Anthony knowing how dumb he can be but he did bring up a point about saving Nihlus but it seems like a good idea but who knows what might happen if we do

Then I look through the scope of my DMR as I saw the bastard Saren walk behind Nihlus just after he took his arm off his shoulder then I placed my finger on the trigger as Sierra helped me aim at the right angle to shoot his hand & she alerted me of where Anthony was aiming at which indicated that he was aiming right at Saren's left shoulder which I'm sure was to leave a mark them as my heartbeat began slowing down time seem to slow down around me then I pulled the trigger only knocking Saren's aim off but Anthony got Saren but he was still up & pissed

Him & Nihlus went ahead & started shooting at each other then we both holstered out weapons & jumped on down & charged over to them as Anthony pulled out his Plasma/Energy sword & I got my Shotgun out we both opened fired at Saren which he took cover behind the crates but just as we were nearing Nihlus I heard Anthony's AI yelled out "Grenade!"

I was the first to react as I grabbed Nihlus & put my body up to shield him from the blast but all three of us got knocked of our asses & onto the ground which I could spot Saren escaping then I noticed that Nihlus wasn't moving so I looked him over & tried to see if he was alive which was confirmed by Sierra as I sigh in relief & got up then I saw the rest of the group coming towards as I heard Tony call out "Did we miss the ass whooping? I wanted to kick his ass"

But before anyone could reply we saw Sovereign flying high & just as it disappeared from our view I heard some footprints behind me but once I turned to look I was starting down the barrel of a rifle then a shot went off
