Mass Effect Shepard Rises.
Joker sat in the med-bay soon after Kaidan left he had jumped up and as his anger got the better off him he smashed his fist into the wall, so now the Normandy was sitting in space like he was sitting in the med-bay watching as Chakwas injected med-gel into his hand and wrapped it in a bandage "Joker you need to be more careful I know we are all going through a rough time right now,"
Shepard slowly awoke to the sound of voices straining to make out the words "I know doc hurt like hell to." He knew the voice was Joker and Chakwas, opening his eyes slowly he blinked so his eyes can adjust as the memories of what happened come rushing back to him he jumps of the bed as his biotic's flare around his body, he watches through narrowed eyes as two blurry images rush towards him "Shepard please calm down your safe." Whipping his head towards the voice he snarls,
Chakwas watches as Shepard snarls at her and pushes away from her "Shepard calm down or I will sedate you." She watches as Shepard's biotic's flare even more, spinning on her heel she runs to her desk and pulls out an injector and primes it and rushes back to Shepard's side "I'm sorry for this commander." She says as she injects him in the arm.
Shepard feels as a needle stabs into his arm he feels as his body starts to feel light and the world starts to spin, forcing himself to focus he roars as his body starts to fight the feeling "now you die" he snarls through clenched teeth, watching the two shapes as they cover their eyes a smile spreads his face as he whips a fist out and smashes it into the wall, pushing his legs forward he pushes past the two shapes and staggers out the room only to see a blue glowing shape and a muffled voice "calm down commander." Memories of Saren fills his spinning head as he powers his own biotic's and rushes at the target who throws out a glowing hand he feels as his body is pushed back a few steps but little else happens, gritting his teeth he feels even more power course through his veins as the image gets clearer.
Chakwas watches in awe as Shepard seems to glow brighter and brighter "Kaidan I don't even know how he is even standing right now, but it must have to do with his biotic's it could be that his body is burning through the drugs I gave him, please don't attack just stand back." Watching him nod and step back she, Joker and Kaidan give Shepard some space she watches as he sways on his feet his face twisted in pain "Shepard" she says as she slowly raises her hands and walks towards him.
Shepard hears his name and turns to the voice he watches as the image comes into view and he can just make out the worried face of Chakwas "doctor" he watches as she nods "john please calm down you are safe ok safe." He tries to look around but sways and nearly falls to the floor but it's the wall instead "my head" he says through gritted teeth "spinning" he watches as Chakwas nods "I know it's the drugs I can help but you need to calm down" forcing his head to move he nodded and watches as the blurry image of Chakwas runs off. Closing his eyes to try and steady his spinning head and shaken nerves he takes a deep breath and feels as a sharp point sticks into his neck and instantly feels a rush as the world becomes clear again and the images reveal themselves to be Kaidan and Joker standing side by side.
"What happened?" he says as his body is suddenly wreaked with pain, its Kaidan that answers him "you pushed yourself to hard in your fight with Saren, you collapsed once I dragged you onto the Normandy." He looks at his hands as they shake slowly looking towards Chakwas he speaks "what happened to me, it felt like I was in a haze" lowering his shaky hands to his side "well Shepard I can only hazard a guess that after Akuze you taught your body to fight any and all conditions maybe you didn't mean to or maybe you did all I know is when I injected you your body fought it and you awoke acting on instinct, add your new found biotic's to that and you burnt through the drugs, you fine now only because your system had an adrenalin rush." Shaking his head he chuckles "I have no idea what you're on about doc but thanks." He turns and walks towards his cabin.
Tali sat in Shepard's cabin she sat on the floor with her hands rested on her knees tears streamed down her face, her heart felt ripped out of her body she was never best of friends with Ashley but being a quarian she still thought of the Normandy crew as a second family, she raises her head at the sound of the door opening with a whoosh watching a Shepard slowly walks in and his eyes lock with hers no words are spoken but just by looking at him she can tell his body is battered and bruised his eyes have lost their sparkle and now looked tired, she slowly stands on shaky legs and rushes to him wrapping her arms around his neck as fresh tears fall from her eyes, she feels his arm wrap around her slim waist "hey don't cry" he says she pulls back a bit "are you okay?" she shakes her head "no we all lost a friend and I nearly died from the crack on my visor." She feels him grip her tighter at that "you are safe here with me come on we need to rest" she feels herself being brought to the bed as they both collapse on it and she snuggles into him and sleep claims her almost immediately.
Shepard awoke a few hours later to a soft beeping noise coming from his terminal, slowly unwrapping himself from Tali's still sleeping form he walks to his terminal and looks at the screen requesting a video call from admiral kahoku, accepting the call he waits as his image appears "commander sorry to disturb you at this late hour but I need your help." Nodding at his image "ok admiral what can I do?" he asks as the image flickers "well I had a team that went missing, no one knew what happened to them so after some digging I found out they had been lured to a thresher maws nest and killed. Now using a contact I know I found out they were killed by a group called Cerberus." Leaning back in his chair Shepard replies "should I know that name sir." The image of the admiral looks around for a minute before replying "yes they were behind the incident Akuze" rage flares through his body and his hands form tight fists "WHAT" he says through gritted teeth "before you go mad I found three of their bases your job is to go there and find out what you can, I will meet you in person at your current location" nodding Shepard forces his anger aside "and what of the bases sir " he watches a smile forms on the admirals face "destroy them."
