Sit back, relax, and enjoy becasue Users 34 is here.
ROAD HOUSE!

Shepard:

Shepard looked at the hologram of Sovereign and began to speak but was cut off by Liara, "What is that? Some kind of VI?"

The hologram lit up and flashed red as it began to speak, "Rudimentary creatures of blood and flesh. You touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding."

Garrus nudged Liara in the side, "I don't think this is a VI…"

As if the hologram heard him it answered back, "There is a realm of existence so far beyond your own you cannot even imagine it. I am beyond your comprehension. I am Sovereign."

Shepard felt a sweat start to accumulate on the back of his neck, "Sovereign isn't just some Reaper ship Saren found. It's an actual Reaper!"

The hologram kept a monotone voice but the message that it held was clear, "Reaper? A label created by the protheans to give voice to their destruction. In the end, what they choose to call us irrelevant. We simply are."

Liara felt as if something was wrong and spoke out before anyone else, "The protheans vanished 50,000 years ago. You couldn't have there. It's impossible!"

"Organic life is nothing but a genetic mutation, an accident. Your lives are measured in years and decades. You wither and die. We are eternal. The pinnacle of evolution and existence. Before, you are nothing. Your existence is inevitable. We are the end of everything", the hologram retorted with vicious reaction.

Shepard made sure the not show any signs of the dread at what he was hearing and kept a brave face, "There is an entire galaxy of races united and ready to face you."

"Confidence born of ignorance. The cycle cannot be broken", the hologram spoke back.

While Shepard was feeling fear Liara came at it with unhealthy intrigue, "Cycle? What cycle?"

The hologram let another growl noise and answered her question, "The pattern has repeated itself more times than you can fathom. Organic civilizations rise, evolve, advance. And at the apex of their glory, they are extinguished. The Protheans were not the first. They did not create the Citadel. They did not forget the mass relays. The merely found them, the legacy of my kind."

Shepard saw their talk as a chance to get information out of the Reaper and asked it another question, "Why would you construct the mass relays, and then leave them for someone else to find?"

"Your civilization is based on the technology of the mass relays, our technology. By using it, your society develops along the paths we desire. We impose order on the chaos of organic evolution. You must exist because we allow it. And you will end because we demand it", the hologram while sounding monotone had a certain pleasure in its retort.

Garrus: They're harvesting us! Letting us advance to the level they need, then wiping us out!

Shepard: What do you want from us, slaves and resources?

Sover: My kind transcends your very understanding. We each a nation. Independent, free of all weakness. You cannot grasp the nature of our existence.

Shepard began pushing his luck and continued to ask questions, "Where did you come from? Who built you?"

"We have no beginning. We have no end. We are infinite. Millions of years after your civilization has been eradicated and forgotten, we will endure", Sovereign was getting fed up with Shepard and he could tell by the shortening answers.

Shepard needed one last question, "Where are the rest of the Reapers? Are you the last of your kind?"

"We are legion. The time of our return is coming. Our numbers will darken the sky of every world. You cannot escape your doom",As Sovereign said that the room got darker and Shepard was finally seeing how doomed they were.

Shepard decided that when in doubt, fake it, "You're not even alive. Not really. You're just a machine. And machines can be broken."

Sovereign left his reply as if he was talking to a disobedient puppy, "Your words are as empty as your future. I am the vanguard of your destruction. This exchange is over."

Suddenly, widow's shattered and the room began to shake. Shepard felt a force pulling him forward to the edge of the platform that he was standing on. Shepard began to fight against it and win until Garrus, who was stumbling from the earthquake, knocked into him and sent him off the platform.

Shepard instead of falling floated toward the one thing he didn't want to see right now. A Prothean beacon was it up at the edge of the lower platform and lit up like a Christmas tree. It took Shepard like the other one did and began sending information to his brain. Shepard felt less pain than the first time which he contributed to the cypher.

Like before, the beacon dropped him but Shepard was good enough to land this time. He extended his legs and managed to stay on his feet rather than fall on his ass. Shepard began to reorganize his thoughts and pushing the vision to the back of his mind rather than the front. Soon, Shepard had his mind back in order and the earthquake had stopped.

Shepard walked over to the ramp and up to Garrus and Liara when Joker cut in, "Commander, we're in trouble!"

Shepard could tell the urgency and immediately replied, "Hit me Joker!"

Garrus got his two cents in before Joker started speaking, "Better not take the hot Shepard. You look like it will knock you on your ass."

Shepard flipped Garrus the bird as he listened to Joker, "That ship, Sovereign? It's moving. I don't know what you did down there but that thing just pulled a turn that would shear any of our ships in half. It's coming your way, and it's coming hard! You need to wrap things up there—fast!"

Shepard thought quick and made the call to Liara and Garrus, "Let's head to the breeding facility, Joker can pick us up after we set the nuke."

Ty:

Jean led us to the area the Salarians headed to. It was a giant centralized AA gun that was smack dab in the center of the facility. Luckily there was no Geth which means that they must have all been called to attack us in the central courtyard. That's what I keep telling myself anyway.

The part of me that is all about reality says that Saren will be back and he knows what happens today. That either means he will try to kill Shepard or me and last time I checked, it was me. Now, if he does come for me, I have to be ready.

I began walking around the AA gun in my new armor and holding the Tsunami. The new assault rifle made me feel a little better but over all I knew it wouldn't beat Saren. The only thing that would is my power as a User.

I pulled my hand from my weapon and flexed my hand into a fist and like before, matrix code began to fall down from the top of my vision to the bottom. I would need something really big to beat Saren or at least what he wouldn't be thinking and catch him off guard.

I decided I had scoped enough of the area and turned to head back to Danny and Cody. They went into the AA gun to catch their breath and check for supplies. I walked up the stairs and in to see Cody holding a Naginata X and in heavy Liberator armor.

"I see you have already found upgrades."

Cody looked up from his find to me with a smile, "Hells yeah, I am going to be set for when the Geth get here."

I looked back at the entrance and saw Salarians carrying out heavy technical equipment to use as cover, "What's up with the cover?"

Cody began pulling off his Onyx armor but still spoke, "Kirrehe asked Danny if we were going to push for Shepard or stay here and hope he comes to us. Danny said that we should stay here and fortify our position."

What Cody said caught me off guard, "Wait, Danny made the call?"

Cody took off the last of the Onyx armor so he was just in his under armor and looked up at me, "Yeah, he says he's second in command. The Salarians think you are in charge of us. They keep calling us User squad."

I clenched my teeth, "Where is Danny?"

Cody pointed out the door, "He took a explosive mod for his pistol and needed to use a tool box to insert it."

"Thanks", was all I said before I took off after Danny. I was going to kick his ass for sure. Making a call without telling me, making a call without all of us talking about it, and just generally pissing me off. If he wanted to get under my skin then he damn well did.

I got out the door and down the ramp and began looking for Danny. He wasn't hard to find, he was leaning over a box and working on his pistol while everyone else was fortifying the cover. I began cracking my knuckles and went up to him.

"What the hell were you thinking saying we should stay here!?"

Danny didn't say anything for a couple seconds then he picked up his pistol and holstered it and spoke, "I figured Shepard would choose us and instead of Kaiden and Ashley. He is a paragon after all."

I began to clench my fist and get angrier at what Danny was saying, "Shepard isn't Paragon, I don't know what the hell he will do! He is being Renegade and Paragon! One second he will be a good guy and the next a dick! Oh, and let's not forget he fucking hates your guts and his girlfriend will be with the bomb!"

Danny looked around and then spoke in a low voice, "Uh, keep it down. The Salarians can hear you."

I did not want to be silent, this was an utter shit storm that Danny had gotten us into and it was just getting worse by the second. I felt my teeth begin to clench and before I knew it I had given him an uppercut to the face. Danny just took the shot and looked at me feeling the blood dripping from his lip.

Danny wiped the blood away and then jumped to the other side of the cover and put his fists up. I took the challenge and jumped over the cover to meet him. Both of us began moving in a circle and I flashed back to the Krogan from Noveria.

Danny was now the immovable object and I was the unstoppable force. We got in close and Danny used his height advantage on me to get in some quick punches to my face but I managed to dodge is third punch and get in close to deal some punishment to his body.

It didn't work at first because of Danny's armor but I finally found a chink right where the breast plate ends. The got Danny to lean over in pain and I was able to get him in a choke hold and lock my legs to bring him down. I didn't think that Danny would be able to pull anything and would end up like Anderson Silva but he managed to catch my jaw with a punch as we went down effectively giving him the upper hand.

Danny then made his way to my arm and tried to lock up a camorra hold. I quickly began rapidly punching the back of his head with my fist until he lost his focus and let me go. I immediately rolled away from him and got up to my feet.

Danny did too and began to smile at me to say, "Bring it on."

I took off running at him and morphed my armor as I did so. The only armor on my mind was Megaman. I felt the shift as my body changed and the robotic enhancements took hold. My right arm shifted into a buster cannon and I got in close enough. I brought my hand back to hit Danny who was still smug as can be but stopped short.

A white hand was on my shoulder and a roar was coming from behind me. I turned around to see Kratos and he wanted in on the fight.

Don't forget to leave a Question in the form of a PM or the review section below. Seriously bro, do you really not have enough time to ask a question?
