Also, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY! REVIEW! GIVE ME REVIEWS JUST ABOUT THE STORY, LIKES, DISLIKES, STUFF LIKE THAT!

Anyway. ENJOY!


John Shepard had a gun drawn on his father, normally a person would've been in emotional turmoil, but he was never close to his dad, and he stop calling him that six years ago. Plus he just watch his "father" try and kill the woman he loved, were this anyone else, he would've pulled the trigger. But instead he hit him upside the jaw with his pistol. "You ever come anywhere near me or my girlfriend again," he pointed to Liara, "And this bullet will be waiting for you." There were about a million other things that he wanted to say, but all of them would end with him shooting his father. Mark Shepard started to argue, but then James, Jack, and Garrus arrived. James and Jack pulled Mark to his feet, they weren't gentle. Then Garrus punched him across the face, knocking Mark out cold. They dragged him out of the room, leaving John and Liara, alone. "Shepard...I-" Liara was cut off by his lips brought to hers. When he separated he looked at her in awe, "Please don't apologize for that!" She smiled, gave him a look and he locked the door to his room.

A good thirty minutes later, Liara and John exited the room. Everyone waiting for Shepard's awakening, was ready to get back into the fight by his side. He gave one of his legendary speech's that always boosted moral beyond belief. (I'll think of the speech later I just want to give you guys an awesome story.) Shepard's crew, the Normandy's crew, SR1&SR2, departed together. The fleets were led by the legendary frigate, to end the Reapers once and for all.

/On Board the Normandy/
The Normandy had become very crowded, but there was room abroad for everyone. Most of the time they were prepping for the next battle. According to EDI there was a large military presence still left on Palivian. That where they were heading. And after that Thessia. Shepard's plan was simple deploy troops to the ground, and kick ass in the skies.

Shepard was alone with his thoughts. He hated his father even more now, he's regretting not pulling the trigger, but he pushed it all aside. He had something much large to hate, and it deserved his full attention. He always tried to be a peacemaker, but the truth is that he had dark side. But he knew better than to let it rule his life. So he always set out to make the world, or galaxy, a better place. He smiled as he watched his crew gather together in the cargo bay, prepping for the coming battle. He went up to his cabin with an unexplainable smile on his face.

Liara was up in his cabin waiting for him, she lit up when she saw him. As did he. He loved her more than anything, and was looking forward to spending whatever time he had with her. Thanks to the implants that Cerberus had given him, he could possibly live as long as Liara. The thought excited him, spending the rest of his life with her was the most important thing to him. But he was also scared, there was no idea how his body would react to his extended life. But he knew Liara would stick by him no matter what.

"Shepard," she happily said, "I'm glad you're here!" She was smiling, and if he didn't know any better, it seemed like Liara was hiding something from him. But he discard that thought, he knew her better.

"Really," he chuckled, moving closer to her, "I thought you'd enjoy chatting with our new crew." He was joking, he knew that socializing was never her strong suit, but she had improved over the years. She gave him a seductive look, that he couldn't resist.

"Well," she got closer to him taking his hands into hers, "I was hoping to spend whatever time we have before the battle with you. Alone." She gave him a long peck on the lips. Giving him a pleading look. He could never say no to her. So they spent the night together. Under the stars.

Shepard woke up, no nightmares. Finally! After months of restless nights, he finally had sound and peaceful sleep. He looked at the beautiful body of his lover and smiled. Without her none of this would be possible. Everything he was doing was for her, to give her a future that she truly deserved. The Reaper were preventing that right now, they had to be destroyed for that reason. That, and about a million others. He had been told, constantly that half the things he's done was impossible. He will prove them wrong. No, they will prove them wrong.

He smiled to himself, "We can do this," he thought cheerfully, "More importantly we will see tomorrow. We will go to war."


Alright first I want to apologize how short this chapter is, I will try and change that. Also if there are any DmC Devil May Cry fans out there, I have been seriously considering writing a fic.
