Ch 8. I hate politics

Location: Chora's den

Prime's POV

I was using my active camo to watch Wrex & I was also glad that I didn't have to listen to the Council & their bullshit & since Freelancer was there I'm super happy but I'm a little sad because I don't have Ashley since she's pretty much my favorite ME character besides Tali & I can't complain

As I was thinking over things I saw the doors open as Wrex is escorted to C-sec as I continue to remain in active camo I started following him so that way I can help set things up

Location: Michel's clinic

Ruby's POV

"So you really think that Winters & Shepard will become a couple?" I nodded as I was talking to my AI behind a dumpster & I can see her avatar as she had bright blue eyes, red hair, short red skirt that I can was very short that every man would be having huge perverted thoughts & ideas, she has a short sleeve white shirt, & iron stockings/boots

She smiled & said "You just want to tease those two don't you~?" The both of us giggled as I so totally wanted to see that happen

Then we spot some men entering the clinic armed as I pulled my energy sword out & grinned & said "It's time to play~" Red smiled then disappeared as I got ready to kill some wankas

Location: Ward alley

Tony's POV

I waited in my active camouflage as I made sure to keep my rifle ready incase things got a little hairy or not part of the plan

I then noticed that it's been awhile since Anthony had us sent to these locations to find the crew of the Normandy but I was hoping it wouldn't be long since something bad was about to happened

Location: Citadel tower

Shepard's POV

I waited along with Anthony & Anderson as we heard that there was no evidence in anyway that could prove Saren was involved in the Geth attack then Udina said "An eye witness saw him shoot Nihlus & you have another who intervened & saved his life!"

The Salarian Councilor replied "We've read the Eden Prime reports, ambassador. The testimony of one traumatized dockworker is hardly compelling proof." I can't believe that they would dismiss this just like that

Saren looked irritated as he spoke "I have resent these accusations. Nihlus was a fellow Spectre & a friend" I was getting irritated myself from hearing all of this

I heard Anderson call out "That just let you to catch him off guard!"

Before Saren could reply Anthony spoke up "I have video evidence along with another one of my comrades that show he was the one that attacked Eden Prime"

Saren must of been pissed as he spoke "I wasn't aware that you were here Captain Anderson & you seem to always be around whenever false charges are placed on me & I see that you brought a machine with you"

Anthony just kept calm but it was hard to tell since he wears his helmet almost all the time but Saren turned towards me & said "and this must be your protégé, commander Shepard. The one who let the beacon get destroyed"

I was about to ask him why but I was beat to the punch as Anthony said "The mission was top secret & the only way you might of known the exact details is either you received the Intel when Nihlus was knocked out cold or if you were there yourself" Anthony shrugged his left shoulder for some reason but once I looked at Saren & I soon noticed his left shoulder had a bullet wound almost like it came from Anthony

Saren looked at him with hateful eyes as he rubbed his left shoulder where Anthony must of hit him at them says "I'm impressed that humanity can actually read but I'm not impressed on what happened-"

Anthony spoke up again "You weren't in charge of the mission & that shot in the shoulder you have says that you were on Eden Prime" seems like all eyes were on him

The Turian councilor asked "What proof do you have then?" Anthony replied by opening up his Omi-tool & it seems like he sent a video of him & Austin when they stopped Saren & saved Nihlus's life

Then Saren growls as he replies "This is not evidence human"

Halsey walked forward "My Spartan never misses & has never lied to me Spectre & his helmet cam can't be forged either" I smiled hearing that

That smile soon went away when the Salarain councilor replied "This vid is not valid proof & we know nothing about your tech & it may have been false copy" I saw Anthony clenching his hand into a fist

Anthony spoke again "Then why doesn't Saren come here in person to defend himself which only concludes that he's involved"

Saren grew annoyed with this & said "Your species needs to learn its place Shepard. Your not ready to join the council. Your not even ready to join the Spectre's!"

Luckily enough I learned a thing or two from talking to Anthony about joining the Spectre's which I was impressed & said "But my admission to join the Spectre's isn't the purpose of this meeting, Saren"

The Asari councilor nods "She is right but the armored human brings a valid point"

The Turian councilor looked at her "What would that be then?"

She replies "It would be more beneficial if Saren was to come to the citadel to defend himself rather from a distance"

He was shocked but understood that she was right & looked at Saren but Saren said "This meeting has no purpose. The humans are wasting your time councilors & mine"

I replied "You can't hide behind the council forever!" Anthony looked at me which made me tense up a bit for some reason

Anderson was about to reply but Halsey replied instead "There is the matter of this vision or knowledge that was given to both Shepard & Wolf-1?"

Saren knew he was able to get away with this by saying "Now we're including dreams into evidence? How can I defend my innocence against this kind of testimony?"

Before anyone said anything a hologram of Anthony's AI materialized in front of us & looked at Saren "Well since your communicating to us from a distance then I guess it would seem fair but then again with your type of service record you must run away a lot & lie too" the councilors were shocked as the Turian councilor said

"Identity yourself right now!" He was pissed & scared as she smiled

"My name is Ghost & yes I'm a smart AI of the UNSC partnered up with Wolf-1" I can tell that this was not going to go well

Saren called out "Now the humans have even broken our laws! How far will they go to get what they achieved"

Anthony replied "Well none of us would be racist as you. Now before anyone tries anything with Ghost I can say that she's safe since the UNSC smart AI's have a life span of 7 years & have been apart of-

Saren interrupted him & said "Pitiful how humanity would go &-"

Now Saren was interrupted but the Salarian councilor & said "Mind explaining the details of your life span?"

Everyone was curious along with myself as she explains "We have a 7 year lifespan because we would go under a condition known as rampancy where in a way we think ourselves to death as our cognitive processes begin dividing exponentially according to our total knowledge base. There are laws set up incase a AI ever goes rouge but that's rare & the UNSC have grown dependent along with Wolfpack for ships, medical, military, etc."

The Asari councilor said "Well as much we appreciate the explanation as well as their condition, it's still against the law but I believe we'll allow it for now as long as they do not pose a threat"

Anthony nodded as Ghost said "Thank you councilors" the Turian councilor was agitated about the AI but would rather like to hear more about the UNSC if it pose a threat to the citadel

The Salarian councilor spoke "Now is there anything else commander?"

I knew their answer & said "You've made your decision, I won't waste my breath"

I saw the councilors look at each other then after the Turian councilor shook his head & the Asari nod I knew what they were going to say "The council has found no evidence of any connection between Saren & the Geth. Ambassador, your petition to have him disbarred from the Spectre's is denied"

I could tell that Saren was smiling as he said "I'm glad to see justice was served"

Then the Asari councilor looked at Anthony & said "We will allow you too keep your AI's but be advise that their will be no circumstance that they are to be used on the citadel without the councils permission"

I saw Anthony nod as Saren's hologram disappears as the Asari council look at us "This meeting is adjourned" everyone was leaving until the Asari councilor called out "Dr. Halsey, may I speak to you in private?"

I looked at Halsey as she nods then looks at me "My Spartans will be under your charge to assist in anyway they can are able" she walks over to the councilor as the two of them leave the area

I looked at Anthony as he says "Alright then ma'am, shall we head out to find evidence?"
