A/N: Well thank you all for those kind encouraging words and I will continue this story cause I am pretty scared of Grunt and I do like this idea even though it means watching a lot of ME walkthrough vids to get lines right. I understand that the first chapter was kind of bad but hopefully this one will be better for some of you
Chapter 2: Their what?
Rose felt tears rising in her eyes but no she couldn't cry not now this is not what Shepard would do or at least what she thinks Shepard would do.
"Well then again Shepard isn't here I am" Rose thought
"I'm sorry Commander if I hadn't walked up to the beacon none of this would have happened." Kaidan said looking down at his feet.
"Wait what happened?" Rose exclaimed
"The beacon is destroyed Ma'am."Kaiden whimpered
"It's not your fault Lt." Rose sighed "I was just looking after my team and I'm sorry about Jenkins it seemed like you two were close."
Rose meant every word but was trying to fraise them like Shepard would. She also noticed the little smile Kaidan gave her and Rose did not want to have to deal with some guy flirting with her while trying to figure out how to get home to her mom and dad.
"Well Commander physically you're fine but I detected abnormal brainwaves and eye movement which usually means you were having an intense dream." stated
Rose was trying to recall what she saw but it was all jumbled up in her mind but it didn't seem like a dream.
"It wasn't a dream more like a vision." She said
"What was it about Commander?" Someone asked
Rose turned her head to the right and saw that Captain Anderson had joined them. She thought that the Captain was a nice person and loved his attitude it reminded her of her dad.
"I think it was mostly about death and destruction but something else anyway it's gone now that's all I can remember."
"Well that's good to know Commander" Anderson said "We're going to be entering Citadel space in a few minutes you should head up to the bridge and talk with Joker he wants to see if your all right."
"Um my memory's a little fuzzy could you tell me how to get there?" Rose asked
"Sure go straight until you reach the end of the hall and take the stairs doesn't matter if you take the left or the right stairs they go to the same place and then head straight and then you're at the bridge."
"Thanks Captain." Rose said
Rose got off the bed and started walking toward the end of the hall when she noticed all of the strange technology in sick bay but she didn't want to stay in one place for too long she just wanted to leave this place. She took the stairs on the right to go up a floor. Then she saw the map there was a large triangular shape in the middle of the place half of it had what looked like a hologram of the galaxy that her science teacher had shown her class. The other half had what looked like a hologram of a space ship like from star trek only less disc like. Rose couldn't stand there gaping at it for long she needed to move and try to resume Shepard's duties.
"It's going to be hell when I have to shoot something" Rose thought "or someone!"
Rose just kept walking in the direction the Captain had told her to move in and stopped looking around in case she saw something that did make her faint.
"Hey Commander heard you took spill down on Eden Prime you okay?" Someone said
A chair turned around to reveal a man with red hair. Rose thought he looked like her friend Luke.
"I'm fine Joker when will we reach the um." Rose tried to find the word the Captain used to where they were going.
"You mean the Citadel well we're here." Joker answered her
"Yeah Commander we were just waiting for you get up here and take a look at the view" Ashley said coming out from behind Rose "This place is bigger than Jump zero!"
"Welcome to the alien capital of the galaxy." Joker stated
"Wait the alien capital of the galaxy" Rose exclaimed "You mean real life take me to your leader aliens?"
"Yes Commander you met Nihlus and he's just one species of alien there's asari, elcor and volus a whole bunch I thought you knew that Commander?" Joker answered
"Right well my brain is just a little fuzzy since the beacon." Rose said
That's when Rose realized that she was going to talk to aliens the first human in her time to talk to aliens.
"Oh god, other species how would Shepard react to them?" Rose thought "No how would I talk to them just like normal people right? Oh god I want to go home now. I want to go to college again and talk to my mom and dad."
Rose looked out the window on the bridge to the citadel it shined so bright like dawn.
"The dawn of a new life" Rose thought "I think I'll never go home again."
A/n: Well that's it for the second chapter and I don't care if it makes 1000 words or not. My computer doesn't tell me how many words I have written. So please review crittsim is welcome but please say it gently.
