Now, I will go on and say that you might not like this chapter, but unfortunately I was forced to write this because of a bet I made with my mom when she beat me in poker. Word of advice, never challenge your mother in poker. She told me to include elements from her favorite romance novel series, Terran Times, by Viola Grace.
On a side note, I would like to say I am very happy to say that I won 700 dollars, due in part to the pool me and my friends made years ago on who was Tobi. I was the only one who said that he was Obito. Yay me. Now the only pool left in Naruto is who the heck he ends up with: Hinata or Sakura. Right now I am the only one who is bet Sakura, the pool is up to 600 dollars.
I do not own anything except for my insert character, any other OCs and Carl. This is for pure entertainment. The romance series depicted in this chapter belongs to Viola Grace.
Also, forgive my grammar, English is my second language.

Chapter 2: Fight and Fateful Encounter (tentative title)
Location- Underground Fighting Arena, Unknown planet
"Why you bastard. Come here." A humanoid being, an Azon, screamed at his armored opponent, who just defeated his tag partner, a dhemon, who was unconscious on the floor of the arena, with his two arms broken.
The Azon swung his fist toward his opponent, but the armored being quickly moved to the side and grabbed his opponent's arm and threw him over his shoulder and down to the floor. Then the armored being got on top of him and punched the Azon right in the face a dozen times. The Azon twitched for a few moments but then became unconscious. The armored being, seeing his opponent was down, got off him and walked a few steps away from the body. Then he heard a loud voice speak.
"Ladies and gentlemen he has done it. The member of the newest species, the Terrans; and this competition's underdog has defeated, in a match of his demand, the two final contenders of the competition. Give it up for our newest champion, Zero." The announcer said as the spectators around the arena started cheering; at least the small group who bet that Zero would win the handicap match of Zero vs. the two remaining finalists. The rest did not say anything, but their faces showed that they were either shocked and/or pissed that an unknown just won the tournament, costing them a lot of money, or in this dimension, credits.
The armored being, who was over 8 feet tall (wearing the Hunter version variant), just stood there and then started to walk to the exit of the arena, heading toward his private viewing booth. After a while of walking, and signing some autographs, he reached his booth. Upon entering the booth, which was furnished for luxury, he took a seat in the luxurious, and more importantly, strengthen to resist heavy weight; couch that was facing the arena. The booth had a special glass that prevented people from the outside to see inside the booth, so the armored being made his helmet open a small part of his helmet, revealing blue eyes behind an orange screen.
"Well, it was tough, but I managed to win. I wonder how happy is Mr. Sanchil? He did bet on me." Zero, or know as by his real name, Edward Terrance; said. Just then, his HUD alerted him that he was receiving an incoming call from Mr. Sanchil. (I could not come up with a better name)
"Well, speak of the devil. Answer call." Edward said. The HUD then answered the call. Edward then heard the voice of Mr. Sanchil. It sounded mechanized because he was using a translator, since he was not human, or Terran, as that was what Edward's species was called in this dimension. Mr. Sanchil was a Nevar, which Edward knew was as the same species as Captain Hook from the fairy-tale Peter Pan, who in this dimension the story, actually happened.
"Well, hello my young friend. I saw the match, and let me tell you, I was worried that you might lose the fight. I mean, two against one, that looked tough, but in the end, you proved that numbers don't matter. Who would have thought that a Terran might be this strong. Thanks to you, I have made a very big chunk of credits. Thanks my good friend." Mr. Sanchil said.
"You're welcome. It's the least I can do for you, I mean, without you; the Sector Guard would have probably gotten to me the day I arrived. Besides, getting more credits is a good idea. So, how much did I win?" Edward asked.
"Straight to the point, huh. Very well, I sent your winnings to your account. Thanks my friend. By the way, stick around. There is going to be special slave auction of two rare slaves, they are going to sell them. Interested?" Mr. Sanchil said.
"As I told you. While I might like to fight in this type's of fights, the idea of slaves still feels wrong. But I will stick around, I need to rest." Edward said.
"Very well. Need anything, just give me a call." Mr. Sanchil said as he hanged up.
Edward then brought up his bank account, which by his point of view was very good.
Edward Terrance:
Account Number- XXXX-XXXXX-XXX-XX-4926
Total Amount- 204,551,753.55 credits
"Now we are talking. I wonder what will happen now." Edward said as he began to remember what happened after he left the Section 8 universe.
Flashback Summary…
Edward had followed Dominic Toretto and Brian O'Conner after they were captured to one of Hernan Reyes' warehouses. Edward then proceeded to rescue the two drivers, without using his suit. After telling them a quick lie about him helping them because he wants to take down Reyes, they allowed him to tag along.
Later, after evading Luke Hobbs' team. Dominic and O'Conner called their old teammates to steal Reyes money. To Edward, being around this rag team of criminals was incredible, especially when he talked Spanish with Leo Tego and Omar Santos. Edward, using what he knew of the movie, told them the final plan to steal the money from the police station, to use police cars to get in.
During the day of the heist, which Edward knew what was going to happen, stayed at the warehouse and literally fought against Hobbs (hello, fighting the Rock, even in another dimension still would be awesome). Edward let Hobbs win and got himself captured. When the ambushed occurred, Edward quickly got his handcuffs off and dons his armor, surprising everyone in the armored truck. Thanks to Edward, he managed to save not only Vince's life, but Hobbs' team as well.
Regrouping back at the warehouse, Edward somewhat came clean about his origins, telling them that he came from Section 8 dimension, his military career and that from his dimension, they were a film series, which literally shocked everyone. It did help having a memory viewer to show them not only what he said was true but also showing them the movie until the ambush, which clearly showed that if it wasn't for Edward, Vince and Hobbs' team would have been killed. Both teams decided to trust Edward (Although Pearce asked if he was popular, Edward told him he was popular, but only as comedy part, making everyone laugh at that comment).
Asking what to do next, Edward told them exactly what to do. What followed next was exactly what happened in the movie, stealing the safe, driving it around the city like chain ball, reached the bridge, killed Reyes, and take the money under Hobbs' nose (although he practically allowed it).
Edward got his share of the money, almost 8 million. Shortly after receiving his share and the group was prepared to leave their separate ways, a green portal appears in the middle of the warehouse. Seeing as Carl was allowing Edward to take his time to leave. Edward says his goodbyes to the group, especially Dom for saving Vince's life. However, before leaving, Edward gave two USB's to Dom and Han. For Han, it included the entire Tokyo Drift movie, hoping that somehow it will help prevent his death. And for Dom, he included the Fast Five movie, but told him to watch the post-credit scene, which included something very important. They both took the USB's and thanked him for the info. Edward then left.
Edward then appeared in Las Vegas. Now, normally, Edward would not question why this place, but when he saw that he was in front of hotel that was under construction and got a good look at it, he realize exactly where he was. He was in the Ocean's Trilogy dimension, exactly in Ocean's Thirteen timeline. Edward then sees Reuben enter the building with Bank, and from the looks of things, this was the night Bank was going to betray Reuben. Edward quickly entered the building in stealth. He reached the room where Reuben and Bank were talking. After Bank left and Reuben started to have his heart attack, Edward quickly came to his aid and took him to the hospital.
A few hours later, Edward, while in the waiting room of the hospital, he meets Danny (Edward was secretly exited, he was actually meeting George Cloony, at least this version of him). Edward quickly explains to Danny he was just passing by the hotel when he saw Reuben and Bank enter the hotel, and got suspicious of Bank when he left the hotel alone with his goons a little too happy. He entered the hotel and found Reuben who was on the verge of a heart attack, and Edward quickly took him to the hospital. Danny accepted it. When the rest of the group arrived at the hospital, they decide to take revenge on Bank. Edward, still there, asked if he could help. Seeing as he saved Reuben, they decide to include him.
Months pass preparing the heist, during which Edward got know the rest of the gang very well. The rest of the time went exactly like the movie, with some differences. The first being that Edward asked if they could get him several deck of cards the casino used, saying that he got a plan on how to cheat in blackjack. Second, when Terry Benedict asked for diamonds to be stolen and said they could do whatever they wanted with them, Edward bet the rest of the gang that if he could get the highest amount of money during the heist, he gets to keep them, the gang agreed with the bet. Edward then realized that ironically, even thought this was the time for Ocean's Thirteen, with him there, is was now Ocean's Fourteen.
Thus opening night came around the corner. Edward went into the casino in a custom ordered black tux (hello, seven feet tall) and took his place in a no limits blackjack table. He played around without cheating for a while, winning some money. But when the earthquake came, he started to cheat. Using his storage ability, he would quickly change the two cards he was giving with a pair of 21 inside the storage. During those free cheating minutes, Edward keep on betting high bets, until in the end when the second earthquake came and everyone started running for the hills, he ended up winning over 10 million dollars. The day after the heist, after confirming that Edward indeed won the bet, he received the diamonds. He then sold 2 of the necklaces, giving him 125 million, and decided to keep the other two just in case. After saying goodbye to the group, a green portal appeared when he was alone and Edward entered it.
Edward then appeared in a futuristic city in an alley. Seeing around, he decided to don his armor (Standard version) and walked around; ignoring some of the stares the people were giving him. At first he had no idea where he was, thought some of the species he was seeing looked familiar in terms that he read about their descriptions somewhere. But when Edward heard someone talk about an Alliance, Edward decided to check the local web, or whatever they call it here. After reading for a while, he realized where he was. The Alliance they were talking about was the Alliance of Sentient and Federated Planets. Edward now knew he landed in the dimension of Viola Grace's series of romance novels "Terran Times" (Which Edward admitted that he took his friends' books and read them in secret, he liked the stories). And that presented a problem for Edward, since humans, or Terrans were limited and all of them accounted for, including the stolen one Pan. So he even though Edward could generate an identity for himself, appearing out of nowhere might attract attention.
No sooner he said that, a man and a woman appeared and ordered him to come with them under orders of the Sector Guard (Edward did not recognize them, they must have been one of the novels he did not read). Edward said no, grabbed a flash grenade from storage and threw it at the couple, it exploded thus blinding them. Edward quickly left the area using Overdrive mode. He managed to reach what looked like a spaceport and started to look for a way out of the planet. Then out of nowhere, a being, which Edward recognized as a nevar, introduced himself as Mr. Sanchil and offered him a proposition because he saw what he did. Seeing as Edward had no choice, he decided to listen. Mr. Sanchil offered him a ride out the planet in exchange for fighting for him in an underground fighting tournament. Edward quickly accepted the offered and left with him.
Long story short, Edward entered the tournament, revealed himself as a Terran, which caused a lot of people to be against him, thinking him to be weak, but later he made sure that they were proven wrong as he beat the rest of the competition.
Flashback Summary End…
Edward was then brought out of his thoughts as he heard a voice announce the next event.
"Ladies and gentlemen, as a special treat for all you, we will now have a slave auction of two rare and exotic beings. The beings in question are Terrans, but unlike the normal Terrans we seen, except for our champion Zero and some other exceptions across the Alliance; these two have a special ability. Here they come now." The announcer said. As a group of security men brought in two chained girls. When Edward saw that one had a very revealing blue armor and had white hair, and the other also had a very revealing charcoal armor and red hair, he thought they looked familiar and then he realized who they were.
"Holy shit, those are Masane Amaha and Shiori Tsuzuki from the Witchblade anime dimension. What are they doing here?" Edward asked out loud, surprised at their appearance. When Edward got a good look at the two, he could see that in their eyes, they had just a little bit of hope and fight left. Edward then heard the crowed wolf whistle at them; Edward started to get angry at this.
"Yes, they look promising don't they? Now, before we begin, what you are seeing it their transformed forms, so we will now show you their true forms, just so you know what you are getting. Boys, if you will." The announcer said as the collars on the girls started to shock them, both screaming in pain. This continued for a few moments and then it stop. The girls then started to transform back to their original forms. But what completely shattered Edward's mind was the fact that the two women in the arena were not Masane and Shiori.
"No it can't be. No, not them. How the fuck did they get here?" Edward yelled as he broke the handle on the couch as he stood up and got close to the glass window.
Standing were the transformed slaves were, were now two identical Caucasian girls, both with long raven hair, but what made them different was that fact that one had strands of red in her hair (charcoal armor) and red eyes, while the other had strands of blue hair (blue armor) and blue eyes. Their clothes were that slaves use, at least they covered them enough.
Edward was starting to see red. The girls down there were his best friends for years, the ones he trusted completely, the two who he heard one night that they both loved him and that they were going to ask him which one he wanted to be with. Edward, when he heard this could not believe what he just heard. The problem he had was that he could not decide which one to pick, he loved them both, and he admitted he was a hypocrite, but he could not decide. But that did not matter because the day after that night, they disappeared. Edward has been hunted by this ever since.
The women down there were none other than the twin sisters Evangeline and Evelyn Lawrence.
"Now then, we will begin the sale. Oh, and as bit of information, yes, the two ladies are twins and are still 'pure', if you know what I mean." The announcer said as the crow started to get more exited. Edward at hearing this got even angrier and punched the glass window, making a huge crack to it.
"So let's start the auction." The announcer said.
(Long auction later)
"So, we are now standing at 5 million credits for the blue lady. Going once, going twice, s…" The announcer said but was interrupted when he got a new offer on the auction screen.
Zero- 15 million for both slaves
To say the crowed was shocked into silence was an understatement; even the girls were shocked that someone had auction on both of them. The silence continued for a few moments until the announcer got out of his shock.
"Well, that interesting. Um, normally we wait until the next auction, but seeing as the offer has been placed. 15 million for both, going once, going twice, sold for 15 million." The announcer yelled. The crowed started to whisper amongst themselves about what just happened.
Edward, who was seeing the arena thought the cracked glass, let out a breath, happy that he was able to buy his friends. He then saw his account change.
Edward Terrance:
Account Number- XXXX-XXXXX-XXX-XX-4926
Total Amount- 189,551,753.55 credits
"No problem, small price to pay for their safety. Now all I have to do is make sure they don't kill me the minute I deactivate the collars." Edward said. Then he received an incoming call.
"Answer call. Yes?" Edward asked.
"Ah, yes, Mr. Zero. As the winner of the auction, where would you like your prizes delivered?" The announcer asked.
Edward held back in yelling that the girls were not prizes, but he needed to hold the image a little longer.
"Send them to my personal room. I want to enjoy them tonight. Also, I would like no interferences for the rest the night and quite possibly tomorrow, no matter what is possibly heard from my room." Edward said, holding back feeling disgusted by what he was saying, or worse, that he had images of doing those things himself to the girls.
"Very well sir and once again, congratulations on winning." The announcer said as the call ended.
"This is going to be a long night, and knowing my luck it will not end well." Edward said to himself.
Unknown to him, it would be a long night, but instead of one he wish it to end early, he will wish it will last a long time.
Author Notes:
I know I ended this in a cliffhanger, but unfortunately the scene that comes after that would be considered Mature. I might post it in my yourfanfiction account. If you did not like this, well I might to rewrite this chapter later.
Yes, my character will have two girls, wanted to do something I have not seen in an S/I story (yet, I am still looking). The next chapter might go to the ME universe, with other trips be said in summary and/or flashback. I would like to say that I got permission from Demon Spartan to use his story as a template.
Also, very important, which gender of Shepard would you like to see? Here are the following actions depending on what you decide.
Male Shepard- my character will look like Shepard.
Female Shepard- she will look like my character's wives.
Also, should I make Cerberus good or evil?
While rooming thought my computer's old files, I came across an old S/I I started to write. I will post it later on to see if you like it better. To different the stories, in this one, my character and his group join Shepard, while in the one I found, my character has his own Normandy ship.
I would like to say that I won't be updating much since I just started collage again and well today I am using my pool winnings to buy Borderlands 2 for the 360.
