A/N: Yay 7 reviews and I will take you words into consideration and I am browsing beta readers. This part of the story is a little bonding session between Ashley and Rose. Which means this will be kind of short.
Chapter 3: How do I put this on?
Rose was really confused. They were about 15 minutes till Rose, Ashley and Kaiden needed to get the citadel and just in case they had to bring their armor and weapons and that usually means you need to be able to put the armor on. Rose looked over at Ashley, she was already wearing her white and pink armor and Rose didn't even know how to get the knee plates on.
"Um Ashley I need a little help putting on my armor." Rose said quietly
"Why do you need help?" Ashley asked looking at Rose questionably
"My memory is a little off." Rose answered
"Right the beacon." Ashley said "Well what I do is start from the top and work my way down so first put your breast plate on then the pauldron then gauntlets and grieves and last but not least the boots."
Ashley pointed and handed multiple pieces of armor and helped put some of it on her. After putting everything on and strapping the weapons on her back which she had no idea how to get them off and not to mention how to use them.
"Wow Commander you know how to work that armor you should look in the mirror." Ashley exclaimed
Rose looked behind her to the mirror. Her black make-up was now completely noticeable and it was impossible to look away from her blue eyes but she hated it. Rose wanted to smash the mirror for reminding her that she wasn't Rose Pace anymore but now Rose Shepard.
"Thanks for the help Ashley and you don't need to call me Commander you can call me Rose" Rose said "maybe we can do something to your hair instead of you just wearing that bun."
"I like my bun for your information but I would like to call you Rose, Rose." Ashley retorted
"Come on they're probably waiting for us." Rose said
Ashley and Rose left the lockers heading toward the elevator to go to the Citadel to talk with Chancellor Udina, who Captain Anderson said was the representative of humanity on the Citadel and from what Ashley said he sounded like a jerk.
A/N: Well hope you like the bonding time and please Review! Oh and Chris7221 if you don't like it STOP REVIEWING AND READING! The point of constructive criticism is to tell me what to work on and to encourage to fix your mistakes what you're using is destructive criticism.
