AN: Wow. I had over 300 views on the first day I posted. I didn't know you guys were THAT interested in RE-ME crossovers. Maybe I should put the worldwar fic on temporary hiatus.
Chapter 2: They're Back!
Ambassador Udina made his way to the Council Chambers for an emergency session. The press was told it was over trading rights, but he knew better. The Council probably found another thing to whine about like the Alliance increasing its production of cruisers and carriers. The move was perfectly legal, but it made the Turians nervous and by extension the rest of the Citadel. When he entered the Council Chambers he could tell this would be a bad day. The Asari Councilor looked cross for some reason and if she was upset with humanity then this would not go well.
"Ambassador, we have stood by the Alliance since relay 314 and have given you privileges we haven't gave the other races. If this is how you will repay our generosity then we may need to rethink humanity's Citadel membership." said Councilor Tevos with poorly hidden anger.
"What are you talking about?" Udina responded obviously confused.
"Oh don't play dumb. We know that you colonized an Asari reserved planet" interjected Councilor Sparatus.
"We know what colonies are open for colonization and which aren't. Why would we colonize a planet we know is reserved?" Udina was starting to become angry over this whole affair. The Turian Sparatus was the worst. He had a bone to pick with humanity since the First Contact War and now he had the nerve to suggest humanity would steal someone's planet.
"Oh really" said Councilor Sparatus in a tone so smug it made Udina want to punch him right then and there. He opened a file on his Omni-tool showing humans mining and farming on a garden world. What really got Udina's attention is the level of development on the planet. There was a small city with small towns and what looked like military complexes scattered around it.
"STG operatives and probes have observed the colony and shows that it belongs to a single group" supplied Councilor Valern speaking for the first time. "We ran the group's insignia with current Alliance Corporations but it doesn't match."
Valern brought up the photos taken by spy probes hoping Udina might shed some light on the subject. The photos show a fist clenched around a hammer.
"The Red Faction..." Udina said in a barely audible whisper.
"So you do know these people" said Sparatus not missing a beat "The Alliance must remove these colonists from the planet or there will be more repercussions."
"Councilors. This particular group of people has absolutely no affiliations with the System Alliance whatsoever. I don't even think they are even aware of the galaxy at large."
"WHAT!" yelled all three councilors at once.
"Ambassador, Will you please explain." asked Tevos quickly.
"The Red Faction was a terrorist group that kicked us off Mars back when the Alliance was the Earth Defense Force. We found the Prothean Ruins before we were defeated and sent the info and artifacts back to Earth so they wouldn't fall into rebel hands. The EDF and by extension the Alliance banned all trade and immigration to the planet hoping they would collapse."
"So they know nothing of Mass Relays and Protheans." could suggest different technology." began Valern.
"Different technology or not they are trespassing on a council world. I will dispatch a fleet to deal with this Red Faction." stated Sparatus
Tevos thought this situation was eerily similar to the Relay 314 Incident. She almost suggested sending a peace delegation, but decided against it. Ambassador Udina did say they were terrorists and after all they didn't have Mass Effect tech so the Turians would have no problems.
AN: The Red Faction is now going to have a war on their hands. Let's guess how badly the Turians are going lose….
