Mass Effect Shepard Rises.
The Thorian was like no other planet he'd ever seen the head if it can be called a head was huge, the skin was white and had a greasy sweaty look to it, its mouth had tentacles like a squid hanging over razor sharp teeth, more tentacles were stuck to the wall supporting its massive weight, the air was thick with a smell of something he couldn't describe, the Thorian opened its mouth and spread its tentacles wide its body shook and it spat out an asari covered in green slime. Her eyes were filled with malice and her skin was green instead of blue or purple.
"stop, you are in the presence of the mighty Thorian it commands you to be in awe." the asari said, he steps forward "we are not here to fight, I just want what Saren came here for." the asari looks at each team member eyes filled with hate "ah yes the one who came with the cold one's, he and the master made a deal. But he betrayed the master." he nods "I understand but I still need that information."
The asari walks toward him slowly hate radiating of her every step she was in touching distance when she glows blue and slams him into the wall "no deal will be made now you will join the Thorian as a slave or die." he slowly rises to his feet "take that bitch down." he says and his team springs to action Wrex charges at the asari and slams into her throwing her off the ledge and into the abyss below. He lifts his assault rifle and pulls the trigger as the Thorian husks come rushing into the room "anyone got any idea how we kill this thing?" he asks through gritted teeth.
Its Liara that answers calmly "well I would suggest taking out the four tentacles it use to support it self." he nods "and then it will fall into the abyss, good idea," he turns to Kaidan "Kaidan take your team left and destroy any tentacles you find, I will take my team right." he moves right and motions for his team "Alpha team on me" he says as he runs into the next room and shoots the husks trying to stand up a shotgun blasts sounds behind him and he looks over his shoulder and sees Tali swaying her hips as she walks slowly into the room "you missed one." she says he chuckles "come on there should be a tentacle around here some where lets go."
He and his team make there way down the only passage available he raises his rifle and shoots a husk, Tali is at his side with Wrex and Liara following behind killing any that they missed "you know Shepard this is fun." he looks over at Wrex and chuckles "I suppose in a way it is." a husk jumps out at him and he pushes his rifle barrel into its open mouth and splatters its brains on the wall as Tali blows the chest out another one, a blue field flies past him and hit's the husks lifting them all up into the air "quick take them down." he says and both he and Tali shoot the husks, once killed they form up on the wall and he peaks into the next room there he sees a tentacle and a whole lot of husks, he ducks back into cover "right there's a tentacle in the next room and a whole lot of husks." he says and pulls a grenade off his belt and primes it, waiting for it to beep he rolls it into the next room "take cover."
The room explodes in a soft thud, he jumps out of cover and walks into the next room to see the husks blown apart limbs scattered every were, Tali and the team walk in "how are we going to destroy this thing." he says as he pushes his finger into the tentacle and an idea forms in his head "Tali can I borrow your knife?" he says looking back at Tali as she nods and reaches down and pulls it out its sheath "here you go but please be careful that was my mothers knife." he nods and turns back to the tentacle and stabs the knife into it and cuts it open he hands back the knife "Shepard its dripping with slime," he looks back at Tali and shrugs his shoulders "sorry Tals." he says and turns back to the tentacle and pushes his last grenade into the hole and primes it "go get back into cover." the grenade goes off with a bang and the Thorian roars in pain "ha that hurt it." he looks at Wrex but before he can say anything his notices another green asari come powering round the corner, he watches as she raises her hand and throws a warp at Tali, he pushes his legs and cybernetics to the limit and throws himself in front of Tali he feels as though he been hit by a speeder and goes flying back into the wall star appear in front of his eyes and blood drips down his head he fights to stay awake as a blurry image of Tali appears in front of him "John, come on stay awake you bosh'tet."
He shakes his head and slowly pulls himself to his feet "found the next tentacle Shepard." he looks to the voice and see Wrex he nods when the Thorian screeches and shakes "one tentacle down commander." he nods and raises his Omni-tool "ok Kaidan go get the second one." he moves towards the entrance Wrex mentioned and looked down it, there he could just make it out in the darkness, he raises his rifle and slowly moves down he motions for his team to follow "eyes open people." no sooner that he spoke that two green asari jump down and stand in the way of his team there body's aglow with biotic power, Wrex and he look at each other nod and charge at the enemy "Liara biotic's, Tali combat drone." he looks back at the asari and dodges a biotic blast he rolls up to her and slams his rifle into her head and shoots, meanwhile Wrex shrugs of a biotic push and slams into his asari he pulls his head back and slams it into her face killing her.
His team step over the body's "anyone got any grenades left?" he asks looking at his team seeing a shake of heads he raises his rifle and shoots until it overheats a shotgun sounds near him and a pistol he looks at his team as they all fire at the tentacle, after all there weapons over heat the tentacle shakes and splits he runs up to it and with a heave he rips it off the wall using all his cybernetic strength, the Thorian roars and shakes he hears an explosion over all the noise and watches as the Thorian falls into the abyss below it screams at it falls and hit's the floor with a wet splash. "come on lets go meet the rest of the team." he says.
After a few minutes of walking he leans on the wall and shakes his head he feels a three fingered hand rest on his shoulder "john are you okay." he looks at her and nods "yeah just heads spinning that's all I will be fine." he says and pushes himself of the wall and back to the entrance were Kaidan and his team are waiting "good you're here" he nods to Kaidan and walks to the edge and looks down into the abyss "yeah but we didn't get what Saren had which means he's one step ahead of us." he turns to walk away when he hears a groan, he looks around until he see's a purple asari fighting her way out some sort of sack, she falls to the floor and raises her hands to her face and wipes the slime away she stands slowly and looks at him.
"you killed the Thorian and freed me thank you." he nods and says "who are you?" "my name is Shiala I was a commando with Matriarch Benezia when she allied herself with Saren" "My name is commander Shepard, what did Saren want?" he says "Saren wanted the knowledge the Thorian holds it was a way to make him think like a prothean, the vision from the beacon was confusing it was meant for a prothean mind." he walks away for a moment and turns back to Shiala "I need that information." he says "there is a way but I warn you I cant explain such knowledge it simply exists," he crosses his arms "how did the Thorian get this knowledge?" "when the prothean's here died the Thorian consumed them all there knowledge, there experiences became the Thorian's" he nods "Liara could this be possible" he says now looking at her "yes Shepard I believe so" he nods and walks toward Shiala "give me this knowledge" Shiala nods and places her hands on either side of his face.
"try to relax commander let go of your physical shell. Reach out and grasp the threads that bind us, one to another" he feels his eyes getting heavy "every action sends ripples across the galaxy. Every idea much touch another to live. Each emotion must mark another's spirit." he struggles to keep his eyes open as Shiala continues "we are all connected. Every living being united in a single, glorious existence. Open yourself to the universe, commander" he eyes shoot but before they do he watches as Shiala head goes back and her eyes go black and she says "Embrace eternity!"
The vision flashes in his mind but this time he can feel pain, feel death clutch at his heart, he feels himself dying at he hands of the reapers and there slaves, a wave of defiance spreads through him as he witnesses the prothean's fight until the death, he watches with horror as worlds burn the fires burning him, he watches as he sees a reaper ship and his body feels crushed he hears whispering in his mind you will die. He feels his body burn under the reapers hate filled eyes, murder happens all around him women and children get ripped apart, a husk appear in front of him and raises its claw and goes for the killing blow.
His eyes snap open and a scream sounds from his throat, his biotic's flare a purple glow appears around him as pain shoots through his mind vaguely he can hear Ashley "what the hell did you do?" his eyes roll into the back of his head and darkness engulfs him.
