Chapter Six: Omega Crisis
January 23, 2173 – 5:35 PM
Citadel – Nassana's Office
"Sven?!" Nassana gasped out in surprise, as she dropped her bag.
"Surprised to see me, Nassana?" Sven chuckled as he admired the flustered look on Nassana's face, "No, you're not hallucinating. I'm really here right now, sitting in your office.
"How are you alive?!" Nassana asked in shock.
"It's quite simple, I contacted an associate of mine to help in taking you down and the best way to do that is to seize your organization, but we needed a way to get into your organization so I faked my own death." Sven explained, "Also don't bother looking for your agent and lawyer. They are in the custody of a Council Spectre and will soon be taken care of."
"If that's all you wanted then what are you doing here?" Nassana asked.
"I'm here to discuss the new terms of our arrangement. Remember?" Sven answered mockingly.
"Terms?! You just told me you're taking over my organization!" Nassana screamed at him.
"That's true but I'd rather to have you hand me complete control over your organization willingly." Sven answered calmly, "Or I'm taking you down."
"WHAT?!" Nassana cried in surprise, "You think you can blackmail me?"
"Yes." Sven answered.
"Who do you think you are? You are nobody, Mr. Markelius. No one will miss you even if you disappear without a trace. You think I'm afraid of you?" Nassana spat out in disgust, "Even if your acquaintance could help you bring me down, he's not here right now so I can just kill you and end this all right now."
Nassana suddenly felt a pistol aimed at the back of her head as a voice suddenly said, "I doubt that would be the case, sister dearest."
"What?" Nassana cried out in surprise as she quickly turned around to face Dahlia Dantius, her own sister with a gun pointing at her head, "Dahlia?! What are you doing?"
"I'm doing my job." Dahlia answered.
"What?" Nassana asked in confusion before turning around to look at Sven, "What's she doing here?"
"She's here to keep you in line." Sven explained smugly, "Actually, that's not quite correct. We have an arrangement. I get total control of your organization and she gets 80% of the profits for her own use."
"Yes, this deal he proposed to me was sweet considering I had a situation with a slaver group but thankfully they are off my back thanks to him." Dahlia added, "An added bonus is that I get to mess up your perfect career."
"Dahlia, we need her to have a semblance of control or else people might question her motives." Sven pointed out.
"Stop talking as I'm not here!" Nassana screeched at them, "There is no way I'm handing over control of my organization to you."
"What you want is a moot point, since I already hacked into your private files and accounts." Sven answered, smirking at her shocked expression.
"How?!" Nassana gasped out in shock.
"Wouldn't you like to know, sister dearest." Dahlia teased.
"So what's your answer, Nassana?" Sven asked, "Last chance."
January 23, 2173 – 5:30 PM
Citadel – Zakera Ward
Earlier…
Ryan, accompanied by Shani, entered the warehouse where the others were on standby. Seeing Chelsea, Ryan made his way towards her.
"So what's the situation?" Ryan asked.
"We found more of the drugs that New Dawn Pharmaceutical created." Chelsea explained warily.
"I feel as though there's a "but" in there." Ryan pointed out.
"These drugs are different, Ryan. I think these are the final product." Chelsea answered.
"What makes you think that?" Shani asked.
"For one thing, the drugs are marked unlike the one Janus found and there are two types of drugs." Chelsea replied, "A green one and a red one, both are marked as O-E and different symbols."
"What symbols?" Ryan tapped his foot after Chelsea finished explaining "O-E? That seems eerily familiar… where did I read this before?"
"The green drugs had the marking of the Greek alphabet for Alpha while the red drugs had the Greek Alphabet for Omega." Chelsea answered smugly, "I took up Languages as my elective back when I was on Earth."
"I see." Ryan answered, "Was there anything else to identify what those drugs can do?"
"You'll have to go see Janus, he went looking for the manifest for the packages." Chelsea explained as she pointed to a nearby room.
"Alright, I'll go see what he found out." Ryan said, "Shani… Can you see if you can find anything we can use here?"
"Sure, I'll take a look around." Shani answered before moving towards several machines that were in a corner.
Smiling to himself, Ryan made his way towards the office. Just before he was going to open the door, he heard a grunt inside the room. Opening the door warily, Ryan found Janus reading several documents who looked up when the door was opened.
"Ryan. You have great timing. I found out what those drugs do. The Alpha drug is similar to the one I found a few months back, the drug takes into effect two minutes after ingestion but this time they fixed the side effects of the user going stark raving mad." Janus explained, "So this drug would do wonders in providing an edge, the bad part is, the biotic powers last only 24 hours before the user goes into a 48 hour coma."
"I see. Is it safe?" Ryan asked, "This might be useful in the long term."
"According to the reports filed here, it should be safe but I suggest using the drugs only for emergencies." Janus explained.
"I see, what about the other drug." Ryan asked, "What does it do?"
"The Omega drug is way nastier, Ryan. It can permanently remove any trace of biotic power the user has, two minutes after ingestion." Janus explained warily, "These things are dangerous and a threat to all biotics."
"I know what you mean." Ryan said warily, "We'll need to take out the company making these if we want to have a chance at all."
"Yes, but that's going to be difficult." Janus agreed before jokingly pointing out, "Although I think you already have a plan on how to achieve that."
Ryan just smiled at Janus. Janus could only stare at Ryan, "Who is this guy?"
Just then, they were interrupted by Aleena entering the office, "I couldn't help but overhear what you two were discussing."
"Is there something you wish to know?" Ryan asked.
"Not really, but I have a suggestion about the Omega Drugs. We have four crates of both Omega and Alpha drugs, with around a thousand pills in each crate, if records are correct. So why don't we hide these drugs and use them as we see fit?" Aleena suggested.
"You're suggestion has merit, but I feel uncomfortable playing god with Biotics." Ryan answered honestly.
"I agree with Aleena, we can use these drugs for the benefit of the galaxy and I trust that you won't abuse them." Janus pointed out.
"Plus there are several criminal scum that are Biotics that needs to be taught a lesson." Aleena added.
"I see… I'll consider your proposal. So aside from these drugs, what else have we found?" Ryan asked.
"We haven't finished the inventory and even once we finish here, we can't take everything with us." Janus told him.
"It doesn't matter. Just take everything we might be able to use and leave the rest for Nihlus and Executor Pallin." Ryan answered.
"I see…" Janus answered with a smirk, "Playing nice with the Spectre are we?"
"Not really, I just feel we can trust him that's all." Ryan pointed out.
"So I'll start packing the Alpha and Omega drugs." Aleena told them before making her way out of the room.
"Ever notice we only use Greek Alphabet and completely forget about the O-E in the drug's name?" Ryan asked absently-mindedly as he watched Aleena approach Wrex.
"What?" Janus asked in surprise, "You're right… We are omitting the O-E in the drug's name, which reminds me, it means Omega-Enkaphalin."
"I see…" Ryan muttered softly, "I was right about the drugs… although they never said anything about this in the website."
Suddenly Ryan's omni-tool beeped, signaling a call. Activating his omni-tool, he was surprised to see Sven was calling him.
"Did Nassana fold yet?" Ryan asked.
"We have a problem, Ryan. She's stubbornly holding out. We'll need something shattering to really break her. I'm sorry I failed." Sven apologized.
"Don't worry about it…" Ryan answered softly, "I think we just found something that might break Nassana for good."
At his words, Janus could only stare in shock at Ryan as he began to comprehend what he was planning.
"I see… what is it?" Sven asked hopefully, "I don't think we can hold her for long."
"I'm on my way now." Ryan answered before cancelling the call.
"Are you really serious about using the Omega drug on Nassana?" Janus asked.
"Yes, I am. She's an actual threat not only to us, Janus, but also to others who would cross her in the future." Ryan explained, "If we don't act now, people might die because she got loose."
"Still… it's too severe, and we don't know what other side effects there are." Janus pointed out.
"I know… but she left us no choice. Besides, she's the cause of the mess she found herself in and we can't just hand her over to C-Sec since they might be working for her or her accomplices." Ryan told Janus, "If there was another way, I would take it, but there isn't. I'm sorry, Janus."
"Don't be. I know that this decision wasn't easy for you to make…" Janus answered before smirking, "that much."
Ryan just laughed before leaving the room and made his way towards Aleena and Wrex.
January 23, 2173 – 5:50 PM
Citadel – Nassana's Office
"God, you're a stubborn bitch." Dahlia muttered darkly as she squared off against Nassana. When Sven came back to the office, after leaving to contact his associate, Nassana made her move and tried to escape. Fortunately Dahlia reacted quickly and managed to stop her as Sven left the room to contact for reinforcements.
"What? You really didn't think you could take me on your own, did you, Dahlia?" Nassana gloated as she tried to unsettle Dahlia with a Warp, "I was always the better biotic."
"That's where you're mistaken." Dahlia answered hotly as she dodged the Warp before using a Singularity against Nassana, "I'm stronger than I was before. Being on the run will do that to you."
"I see… too bad you can't…" Nassana tried to say before she got caught in a Stasis that Dahlia threw at her before she could react.
"I told you I'm better." Dahlia gloated evilly as she stared at her frozen sister, just then the door opened as Sven and another human entered the room.
"I see you have everything under control, Dahlia. Well done." As the other human praised her, "This makes things easier."
"Who are you?" Dahlia asked warily, as the human took out a red pill from his pocket.
"The name is Ryan and I'm an associate of Sven here." Ryan introduced himself before making his way towards Nassana's frozen body, "Now let's finish this up shall we?"
"What's that?" Sven asked as Ryan showed them the red pill.
"Something that will cow Nassana into submission… or it might kill her." Ryan answered with a smirk as he dropped the pill inside Nassana's open mouth, "Cancel the stasis now please."
Shrugging to herself, Dahlia cancelled the Stasis and watched as Nassana fell down to the floor, coughing softly.
"What did you put inside me?" Nassana asked fearfully.
"I think you'll recognize the drug, it's called the O-E Omega drug but I just like to call it Omega." Ryan explained.
Nassana could only look at him in shock as she realized the implications of what Ryan had done to her.
"NO!" Nassana screamed loudly, glowing blue as her biotic power flared up as she stood up, "I'LL KILL YOU!"
Just as Nassana was about to release her biotic attack against Ryan, her biotic power abruptly disappeared, leaving the other two gasping in surprise. Realizing what had just happened to her Nassana could only crumple down to the floor and began to sob softly at the loss of her power. Dahlia reveled at the sight of her high and mighty sister brought down low.
"What just happened?" Sven asked in a daze.
"That drug permanently neutralized her Biotic powers." Ryan explained, "In short, she's powerless as she is now."
"Excellent…" Dahlia muttered before looking up at Ryan, "You aren't planning on using that drug on others are you?"
"I might but only if I don't have a choice in the matter." Ryan answered honestly.
"I see… just don't use that drug on me." Dahlia pointed out.
"I wouldn't dream of it, Dahlia, you now have the power to rule over your sister." Ryan pointed out, "Besides, I'm sure Sven here has some other rewards that might convince you to side with us for the long run."
"Alright… I'm not saying I'll remain loyal to you people but I'll stick around and see what happens. I owe you two that much for taking care of those slavers and my sister." Dahlia answered.
"Well, I think you have everything you'll need to convince Nassana here to work for us now." Ryan pointed out, "I'll go on ahead."
"Alright then, Ryan, I'll see you after I'm finished here. I'll take care of Nassana." Sven answered.
Once Ryan had left the room, Sven looked at the broken Asari that was once Nassana, a powerful biotic, a manipulative associate of his and a prominent official. Now she truly is a nobody.
Sven kneeled down beside Nassana and slapped the crying Asari on her face, "Enough with your crying. Are you going to hand over control of your organization to me?"
Nassana could only nod her head as tears continued to flow down her cheeks.
"Excellent…" Sven muttered softly.
January 23, 2173 – 7:00 PM
Citadel – Citadel Heights Apartment # 5
The group was celebrating their success over dinner. After dinner, Ryan made his way to the makeshift office in the apartment and began to browse through Nassana's private files.
"Nassana seems to have every dirty secret of every known politician and military official in the Citadel… no wonder everyone's afraid of her." Ryan mused to himself as he finished reading a report over a "stiff" Turian General who had just started seeing an Asari Consort.
Ryan was about to read another report when he was interrupted by Shani, "Ryan we have a problem."
"What is it?" Ryan asked in concern.
"I was browsing through the warehouse manifest in the warehouse and found out something troubling." Shani started to say before asking, "Exactly how many crates from New Dawn Pharmaceuticals were found?"
"We found four crates each for the Alpha and Omega drugs. Why?" Ryan asked in surprise before realizing something, "Don't tell me there were supposed to be more crates?!"
"According to the manifest, there are supposed to be five crates for each drug." Shani explained.
"Shit!" Ryan cursed loudly, drawing the attention of the others.
"Hey, what's with you?" Garrus asked in surprise.
"Shani just found out that there were supposed to be five crates for each drug." Ryan explained warily.
"What? We only found four crates." Wrex pointed out.
"I know, but it seems as though Nassana was dipping into New Dawn Pharmaceuticals cargo and sold them to the Blue Suns in Omega." Shani told them.
"Omega?! That's where my sister is at!" Janus exclaimed in consternation, "Ryan, we have to go there and stop them. We don't know what will happen once the Blue Suns start taking those drugs."
"I agree, but this complicates things." Ryan muttered, "Why wasn't this in the website?!"
"So who's going with me?" Janus asked the others.
"I'm going with you no matter what anyone says." Chelsea proclaimed as she reached out to hold Janus' arm.
"That's already a given." Garrus pointed out which caused the others to laugh as well as making Chelsea blush, "Besides no one is crazy enough to tell you not to go with Janus. Which reminds me, count me in."
Wrex and Aleena looked at Ryan who just nodded, "We're going with you as well. You're going to need experienced mercenaries in order to take out the Blue Suns."
"I'm going with you also." Shadow said softly.
"I want to go with you as well." Shani said, "I want to help out this time."
Janus looked at Ryan who just nodded, "I would love to have you there, Shani, but you can't join us."
"What? Why?" Shani asked in surprise.
"You're going with Ryan to Earth aren't you? Besides we're going to need you to help protect Ryan even if he can take care of himself." Chelsea pointed out to her.
"Oh…" Shani squeaked in surprise, "I guess you're right."
"Janus, I'm sorry to say you're going to need more than just the five of you." Ryan pointed out, "Thankfully, I found a few who might help you out."
"Who are they?" Janus asked.
"The first one is someone you know very well, Council Spectre Nihlus. I'm sure he'll be interested about these wonder drugs and would support you in this but I doubt he'd take orders from you." Ryan said.
"Council Spectres don't really take orders." Garrus pointed out.
"The second one is Zaeed Massani, a notable bounty hunter and mercenary soldier who would be perfect for this mission." Ryan pointed out.
"Why would he be perfect?" Aleena asked.
"He created the Blue Suns alongside Vido Santiago who then betrayed him." Ryan answered.
"I see, he would be perfect in a fight." Janus said, "Although he's going to be a wild card."
"I have faith in your leadership skills, Janus." Ryan answered with a smile.
"So who's the last?" Wrex asked.
"It's not a who, it's a what. I'm referring of course to the Talons mercenary group. I'm pretty sure we can hire the entire group for this operation." Ryan answered smugly.
"So when are we leaving?" Ghost asked.
"Tomorrow." Ryan and Janus answered together.
January 24, 2173 – 8:00 PM
Citadel – C-Sec Headquarters
Executor Pallin was hard at work in his dimmed office, being in the midst of finalizing the list of officers that would eventually be fired or transferred so as to minimize their influence. Thanks to the information that they had received from Nassana's private files as well as the testimony of Jayrus Viryn, he had managed to amass several officers of prominent positions that were "compromised", most telling of the officers was one named Robert W. Simmons.
"Finally… everything's all worked out…" Executor Pallin muttered softly, "I finally got you, Simmons, you bastard."
Executor Pallin was so engrossed in his work that he failed to notice his door opening and someone entering his office. Seeing that the Executor didn't notice his arrival, the person slowed his steps while keeping out of the immediate view of the Executor until he was behind him. Taking out his firearm, the person cautiously approached the Executor and pressed his firearm at the back of his head.
Feeling the firearm at the back of his head, Executor Pallin could not move not because he was afraid but because he was shocked at how his life would end. "I should have been more attentive…" Executor Pallin thought to himself as he prepared himself to die needlessly.
"You know… you really should be more alert in your surroundings, Venari." The person standing behind him said.
Executor Pallin could only gasp out in surprise when he recognized the name, turning around quickly he saw Nihlus holstering his firearm with an amused expression on his face.
"That was not funny, Nihlus." Executor Pallin grumbled halfheartedly, "I actually thought I was going to die."
"True, but it did cause you to learn a valuable lesson." Nihlus pointed out, "Which is to be mindful of your surroundings and maybe post a guard or two."
"That would be fine except the person I would trust enough to do the job is not a C-Sec officer anymore." Executor Pallin informed him.
"I see, so despite the fact that these people…" Nihlus started to say as he pointed to the list Executor Pallin was making, "My god… those are a lot of officers."
"I know… and the worst part is almost 80 percent of them are in a position of authority." Executor Pallin pointed out, "It's a good thing we found out about these people before anything life-threatening happened."
"I know what you mean, but Venari, what are you planning to do with these people?" Nihlus asked.
"I was planning to fire them or transfer them where they can't do any harm." Executor Pallin answered.
Nihlus slowly shook his head, "That won't do at all. If we fire or replace these people, what's going to stop other officers from being compromised? I suggest that you don't do anything to them at the moment, at least this way we know who they are and we can do what we can to stop them from doing too much harm if it comes to that.
Executor Pallin mulled over Nihlus suggestion quietly for a few minutes, "Fine… I can see the reasoning behind your argument. It goes against my better nature but I'll follow your advice for now. As for Simmons, I'm going to fire his ass for something. I just don't know what yet."
"I have an idea for that one." Nihlus answered with a smirk.
January 24, 2173 – 9:00 PM
Omega – Eclipse Headquarters
Nyreen went inside her room and began to remove her armor and get dressed in casual clothes, since she and her companions were headed towards Afterlife for a break, so it was best not to advertise their association to any known mercenary group. After getting dressed, Nyreen grabbed her Raikou IV pistol from the table and placed it in her purse. She debated about wearing another set of armor but decided that the chances of her being in a firefight in a well protected place such as Afterlife was non-existent so she didn't bother. Leaving the room, she made her way to the entrance were Jaroth and several Eclipse mercenaries were being granted leave for the night.
"Alright people, you guys have won the right to go on a night of entertainment." Jaroth told the people waiting at the entrance, "So enjoy yourselves out there, but if you get yourselves in trouble, don't expect us to bail you out. Now get out of here, I have work to do."
Nyreen, Marcus and Eshin slowly made their way towards Afterlife.
"So what do you think about the patrols we sent out earlier today?" Marcus asked the others.
"What about them?" Nyreen asked in confusion.
"I did the numbers and the number of Blue Suns, the patrols contacted today was less than the average." Marcus informed them.
"He does have a point, this begs the question, where are the rest of the Blue Suns?" Eshin pointed out.
"Maybe we thinned them out? I don't know…" Nyreen answered halfheartedly, "Guys, I really need to relax right now…"
"Fine, we'll discuss this at another time." Marcus answered, just as they arrived at Afterlife.
January 24, 2173 – 9:10 AM
Citadel – C-Sec Headquarters
"That's an interesting proposal, Nihlus." Executor Pallin pointed out, "It would deal with Simmons current actions while not alerting him to the fact that we know about his other affiliation."
"I thought that might interest you, Verani." Nihlus said, "So when do we begin?"
"Soon and…" Executor Pallin was about to answer when Nihlus omni-tool pinged.
"Who could that be?" Nihlus asked in wonder, as he activated his omni-tool and noticed that Ryan was calling him.
"Spectre Nihlus? Are you there?" Ryan asked.
"I'm here, Ryan." Nihlus answered, "What's the occasion?"
"There's a situation brewing in Omega." Ryan informed him.
"What situation?" Executor Pallin asked, Nihlus seeing no point in hiding it, magnified the video call so that Ryan could see Executor Pallin as well.
"Executor, you're with Spectre now? That saves up time then." Ryan pointed out, "The situation in Omega is severe enough to warrant action from C-Sec as well as Spectre intervention. My team is already making preparations to head to Omega tomorrow to handle the situation but we need help."
"Hold up, what situation is happening in Omega that you deem it worthy of both C-Sec and Spectre action?" Nihlus asked worriedly.
"This is about the pharmaceutical drugs from New Dawn Pharmaceutical, Spectre. We just found out that a shipment with an estimate of a thousand pills of both pills was sent to the Blue Suns in Omega by Nassana." Ryan explained, "I don't have to tell you what will happen if they take over Omega by using those pills."
"No you do not. I can't spare any officers to assist you, Ryan." Executor Pallin apologized, "We just don't have the authority to handle this kind of threat, but I'll do what I can to round up every Blue Sun operatives in the Citadel."
"Executor Pallin is right, he doesn't have the authority to intervene in Omega." Nihlus conceded Verani's position, "But as Council Spectre, I have the authority to assist you in this as well as the resources to make sure we succeed. I'll handle my end of the situation, while you guys prepare yourselves as well. Thank you for bringing the news to us."
"I understand, I'll take care of things at my end as well, Spectre." Ryan answered before cancelling the call.
"He's a nice person for a human." Executor Pallin pointed out, "It's a good thing he's on our side."
"Yes, he is. Although I'm very curious as to who Ryan really is." Nihlus said, "Either way, we both need to act. I'll go on ahead and make preparations for my trip to Omega."
"I'll also do my part in containing Blue Suns activity in the Citadel." Executor Pallin added.
"Good luck." The both of them said to each other before Nihlus left the office.
January 24, 2173 – 9:10 AM
Omega - Afterlife
After checking themselves in at the security guards of Afterlife, the trio made their way to the bartender and ordered drinks before taking them to the second floor. As they enjoyed their drinks, they began to reminiscence about their past adventures.
Nyreen was in the midst of telling the others of an elaborate adventure when her omni-tool pinged, Nyreen wondered who would send her a message at this time of night and was surprised when she noticed it came from Janus. Nyreen opened the message and read it quietly before grimacing slightly.
"What's the matter?" Marcus asked, concerned about Nyreen's reaction.
Nyreen didn't bother to answer and just showed them the message.
Nyreen, sorry I haven't contacted you since our last communication. Just wanted to let you know, everything's sorted out at the Capital thanks to my friends. Anyway, several of us are heading to Omega to handle a situation that's developing in Omega. We have concrete intel that the Blue Suns managed to obtain a powerful pharmaceutical drugs. The Alpha Drug gives them biotic powers while the Omega Drug permanently removes the biotic powers from anyone who takes it. Be safe sister, I'll be there soon. Janus.
"This doesn't look good." Eshin pointed out.
"That's right, it doesn't… this news is very bad and could be devastating in our war with the Blue Suns." Marcus added.
"No, not that…" Eshin told them before pointing down at the entrance, "I meant that doesn't look good."
The others looked down and could see over two dozen Blue Suns and Blood Pack mercenaries assembled at the entrance. Just then one Blue Sun mercenary stood out in front and began to call out Aria.
"Aria T'Loak, I am Tarak, commander of the Blue Suns in Omega. The Blue Suns and the Blood Pack have come into an agreement and are here to issue an ultimatum on you. Either surrender your control on Omega or we will be forced to show you our power and kill all of you." Tarak demanded.
Aria appeared on the podium and answered his ultimatum, "I don't know who you think you are but this is MY club and MY Omega. I don't take kindly to threats so I'm giving you exactly one minute to leave Afterlife and one hour to leave Omega or I will personally end your life, Tarak.
"Very well then, I guess it's time we showed you a demonstration of our power and conviction." Tarak answered before taking out a green pill from his belt and swallowed the pill whole.
The other Blue Suns and Blood Pack mercenaries also took out green pills from their belt and proceeded to do the same.
"Men, hold your ground!" Aria commanded her guards, curious as to what they were planning to do.
Meanwhile up at the balcony, the three Eclipse mercenaries were in the process of pulling out their own firearms and securing their position.
"If I knew that this would happen, I would have worn armor…" Nyreen lamented softly, recalling her earlier decision on not using armor.
"We came here to relax, Nyreen. Not get into a fight, although it's good that we aren't completely unprepared." Marcus pointed out.
"I wonder if those are the drugs your brother warned us about." Eshin contemplated as he watched the standoff down below.
"So where is your conviction and power, Tarak?!" Aria called out in contempt.
Tarak just smiled and answered slowly, "Right here, Aria…"
Suddenly all of the assembled mercenaries were bathed in a blue biotic aura and unleashed their biotic powers against the unsuspecting guards.
"Oh shit…" Aria muttered softly, as she witnessed the impossible unfold below her.
