Mass Effect: The Return Of The Overlord
Chapter 1
Walking along the Presidium was commander John Shepard who was walking towards the Citadel tower to inform the 'idiotic polliticians' of the fact that the collectors have been destroyed, and his 'employment' with Cerberus has ended. Although since his days before Cerberus he looks different because of the open orange glowing scars which criss-cross across his face and the red glow behind his emerald green eyes, personally he likes his new look it is good for lowering the morale of his enemies.
As he neared the Citadel tower he thought on his death and his resurrection which some people would reflect with the bible but he just thought of it as the advances of technology. Although he does not remember if there was any crossing over into any sort of afterlife he thinks that maybe he was somehow destined to stop the reapers or something greater than that. in a moment of boredom he wonders if he can make the council of pidgeons lose THE GAME.
That was when he noticed that he had arrived at his destination, with that he walked through the doors and into the council chambers. He looked up from his position to see councillor Anderson already standing in his position along with the Turian councillor Velarn next to the Asari councillor Tevos standing next to the Salarian councillor Desu. Thinking all the while the council does like people to be looking up at them, they must be over compensating for something.
Shepard then stepped forward in front of the council which then caused Tevos to speak up. "Commander good to see you have returned, I suppose you have come to report on the collectors and the sudden stop in the disappearance of human colonies." this then caused Valern to sceptically speak up "and yes I believe that you will say that these 'collectors' were involved with the 'reapers'"
This caused Shepard to reply with "Yes they were reducing humans down to genetic material to build a reaper." this caused Desu to ask "and what happened to the reaper: of course it would be destroyed, question is how :sniff:". Tevos then questioned Shepard "how exactly did you destroy the reaper?" "it was incomplete so I used the Kain, if in doubt use lots of explosives, maybe someone should try thrown spanners at the reapers, it is what is in your capabilty Valern.
Valern then questioned "and I suppose you destroyed the collectors base" "yes, would you much rather Cerberus get a hold of it", Valern responds "no I suppose not". Tevos then asks Shepard "and where did the Omega 4 relay lead?" "it led to the galactic core, within a safe zone which required a reaper IFF taken from a derelict reaper." Velarn queries "derelict what could cause these 'sentient' machines to die?" "have you ever thought that the Protheans didn't taken a few of them with them?"
Shepard then cuts off any replies by telling them that is all the information he has, which causes one of his scars to widen which Tevos notices and questions Shepard "why did one of your scars just get wider? And now that I think about it why are they glowing orange?" Shepard answers her "when Cerberus brought me back from the dead" Tevos replies "back from the dead so you did die" Shepard continues "well yes they wanted me back quickly because according to them I'm a 'symbol' to humanity so they didn't even both with a control chip, that came back to bit them in the ass, they used cybernetics to speed up rebuilding me, although I don't know the full extent of it. scars look good though they give me that edge and really, do you think that enemies would be able to have much morale knowing that they do not have scars like these."
Just as Tevos was going to reply the room started to shake and a giant claw like structure pulsating with dark energy tears through the garden, somehow managing to completely tear up the garden as if it was perfectly planned. Below the council chambers and some some minion like creatures a group of 20 pour out of it and some of the brown ones look stupidly and then goes and picks up random pieces of metal and hits some of the other ones with it and cackles. Which causes one of the blue ones to face palm and hit the browns with some sort of energy, which causes the red ones to set the browns on fire, although the browns do not seem smart enough to know that they are on fire at all.
Everyone in the council chambers looks at them with curiosity which causes one of the red ones to chuck a fireball at a tree and sets it on fire which seems to set the red ones of dancing around the burning tree. Just as everyone was settling down a really old one of the creatures comes out of the claw like structure and smacks the reds with the staff hes using as a walking stick and asks condescendingly "is this a tea party, or is it politics, I love politicians all backstabbing each other what fun!". He then turns to look at shepard and says cheerfully"your the new overlord think of the size of the domain you could build and think of how good we would b at destroying the reapers, stupid machines thinking that they have the right to destroy things and not even leaving anyone to work for them amateurs!" with this Shepard passes out and the minions take Shepard and the council members through the portal.
With the minions taking anything that looks to be of value, with that they notice the keepers and get evil grins on their faces and set them on fire. Although they seem to get bored when the keeper jsut disintergrates, and go back to smashing objects and stealing anything not bolted down. Although they some how manage to steal a bodyguards run from literally right infront of them, giving the bodyguard a parting gift, although people are not generally happy at being kicked in the crotch.
