Mass Effect Shepard Rises.

As he walked down the side alley with his team in tow he could just make out makeshift cover and shaky rifles "s-stop right there" he stops and raises his hands "calm down I'm not here to hurt you." he watches as a man and woman walk around the corner, the man looks at them with suspicion and hate, were as the woman looked pleading and tired she had dark circles round her eyes.

"you there, who are you?" the woman asked "I am commander Shepard council spectre." the woman nods "I am Juliana Baynham. what are you doing here?" he relaxes his stance "was on the way to the exogeni's HQ to deal with the Geth." the woman nods "if you are going there can you possibly look for my daughter Lizbeth she was there last time I heard." Shepard nods "ok we are there anyway best you can do is stay here and keep out of trouble." he says and turns around and walks away "back to the Mako team?"

The Mako was making it way towards the Exo-geni HQ again "so Shepard do you get the feeling that something is amiss with the colony?" Tali said "yes I did there was hostility towards us." he said and opens his com link "omega team what's your situation?" over the com he can hear gunfire "commander we have fixed the water supply and power supply. We just have to kill the alpha varren and deal with the Geth transmitter. Sir you have got to know there's a mad man down here sprouting crap about something called the Thr….wait chief WHAT THE HELL ." he scrunches up his face "kaidan?" he hears more gun fire "shit there's more" he sighs "Kaidan talk to me." he receives no answer only static. "Shepard I'm picking up something big coming up ahead if I had to guess I'd say it's a Geth colossus." he slams his foot on the break making everyone groan "what the hell is that?" Tali turns to him "a big walking tank got enough firepower to rip a hole in ship armour." he punches the steering wheel "damn it we need a plan to deal with it then any idea's." he turns back and looks at his team, until Wrex answered "what about using the Normandy to drop a whole lot of shit on its head, light whatever." he turns to Tali "well what you think," he watches as she looks at Wrex and then leans forward "can you keep Wrex from an all you can eat buffet?" he chuckles when they both hear Wrex chuckle "you can try little Quarian" he turns back to his console and keys the Normandy com frequency "Normandy over." he waits as Jokers voice filters in through the Mako speakers "commander what can I do for you." "joker bring the Normandy to my position I will mark a target with laser for you to take out." he says "understood ETA 3 minutes." he slowly gets up "Tali come with me, the rest of you watch the Mako."

He and Tali slowly make there way ahead making sure to keep low and behind cover, finally reaching a good vantage point the looks ahead and see's the massive Geth standing there patiently.

"Joker we are in position, remember keep your distance I don't want a scratch on the Normandy." he says "roger that commander firing once you mark the target with laser." he pulls the laser out his tool pack and marks the Geth's mid section "target acquired" he hears Joker "firing now ETA of package 2 minutes Normandy returning to previous location." he turns to Tali "ready for fireworks" he watches as he head tilts to the left "what's that" he chuckles and points to the Geth. He hears the small roar of the missile as it smashes into the Geth causing it to topple over in a shower of explosions and wires and metal flying every were leaving it a few second he peaks out of cover "now that is a beautiful sight." he hears Tali chuckle and watches as she bounces around "Keelah" he chuckles as he walks back to the Mako.

After a rather dull ride they finally found themselves at the Exo-geni HQ, upon exiting the Mako he looks around with his rifle at the ready "clear" he says as his team lowers there weapons, the team start to walk forward when they hear a muffled scream he raises his rifle as the door bursts open and a woman comes running through followed by a pack of varren "help me please" she shouts he nods and aims his rifle the first varren jumps towards the woman but he puts a few rounds into it and it drops dead another varren turns to him and starts to run at him, he dodges and smashes his rifle butt at the varren's head killing it instantly. He watches as the rest of his team kill the remaining varren as he walks toward the woman.

"its ok now your safe for the moment, who are you?" he asks as he watches the woman tremble "m-my name's Lizbeth Baynham w-who are you?" he gestures to himself "I'm commander Shepard, the krogan is Wrex, the asari is Liara and finally the Quarian is Tali we heard you got a Geth problem," he watches as she nods "yes I don't know what happened one minute everything was fine, we were studying SPECIES 47 the next the Geth attacked killing everyone they saw." Tali jumps in at this point "what is SPECIES 47?" he watches as Lizbeth shifts uncomfortably "I'm sorry that is Exogeni private business." he sighs and stalks towards her angrily "listen I'm a Spectre so tell me what I want to know NOW" he says standing tall and glaring at her " ok please I will tell you SPECIES 47 otherwise known as the Thorian." he nods "good and what is this Thorian?" he asks "well its some kind of planet life form unlike anything we have ever seen its possible it's hundreds if not thousands of years old." he turns away and sighs "great is that what the Geth are here for?" he asks looking over his shoulder "if I had to guess then yes, you see the Thorian releases a spore in the air that when inhaled over a short period can take control of the subject."

"WHAT you are kidding me?" he says "no I'm afraid not, we well I mean Exogeni used the colony Zhu's Hope as a test," "what the fuck were you thinking?" he watches as Lizbeth starts to cry and falls to her knees "I tried to stop them but they used my mother against me I had to do it, the worst of all is that the longer tour exposed to the spore it changes you turns you into a lifeless husk." he sighs and places his hands over his face. "what are you going to do with me now commander?" Lizbeth asked "there's no reason for us to be here, so I say we use the Normandy and blow this god forsaken building." he says looking at his team "all agreed." he watches as his team nods in agreement "ok" he raises the Normandy on his radio "joker you there?" he wait's a few seconds before a reply comes "yes commander was going to contact you the colonists are acting really strange, there trying to get in by clawing at our hull with there hands." "there not important get your ass here ASAP, prepare all GUARDIAN lasers we got a building to blow." "on it" he closes the link "take Lizbeth and wait at the Mako I will be along soon."

To say Tali was scared was an understatement first there was this whole thing with the Thorian, the second was being scared for john she could admit to herself now that she was developing feeling for him she was maybe even bonding with him if such a thing was possible. She was brought out her thoughts after Wrex switched the Mako off after driving it to the safe distance "well are we going to sit here or are we going to watch as the building falls." he said with his deep menacing voice "lets go outside and wait for him" she says and rush out.

Outside she fidgeted waiting to see the dashing commander again when she looks up and see the Normandy flying through the air like a sleek predator watching its prey, it arcs in the air and unleashes 4 bright blue lights that slam into the side of the building destroying it, as the building starts to crumble dust flying every were, the ground starts to shake as the building falls and crashes into the far below, she looks every were her breathe catches in her chest when she can't find john she falls to one knee when she hears Wrex chuckle "look there." he says as she raises on shaky legs to see a black blob grow bigger and bigger until it takes the shape of john, he was walking slowly and proudly with a slight strut on his shoulders as he grows closer and closer "well go on run to him" she looks to Liara and smiles even though she cant see it and sprints forward and jumps at him throwing her arms around him "oh god john you scared me don't do that to me Nihya." she blushes almost as soon as its out her mouth "what's that mean?" he asks "e-erm I-I w-will tell y-y-you on the Normandy." she says and feels as his hands travel down her back until they rest on her buttocks and squeeze the toned flesh there "you bet" her face feels as if its on fire as she releases him and they all get back in the Mako.
