Mass Effect Shepard Rises
It had been three days since the first Cerberus base was destroyed and thanks to Tali expert hacking skills Shepard had a lead on a second base Cerberus base on Nepheron in the voyager cluster. The base was a ruin by the time they arrived Cerberus was experimenting with husks and more Rachni soldiers, who were either eating bodies of the dead or fighting each other, they didn't find much in that base except test results and a few messages from the illusive man Cerberus's boss, the only thing they found of note was Admiral kahoku's which had been tortured using Thresher Maw acid and left to die in a cell with a Rachni in what was left as a body wasn't much but enough to get an ID on him.
So here he stood in the Med-bay standing over two bodies his head bowed in respect to both, he hadn't slept for three days every time he closed his eyes he would see flashes from Akuze or the accusing eyes of Toombs, he felt as if it was his fault Toombs had suffered as long as he had if only he were strong enough to lift his sorry ass up and look for him but he didn't after killing that Thresher maw and getting crushed he hadn't moved just slumped there, he also knew that he should talk to his team they had seen as side of him he though locked away but he just couldn't muster the energy all he did on his spare time was work out trying to douse the fire burning through his veins even at night he just lay there with Tali wrapped around him unblinking.
He was snapped out his thoughts by joker's voice over the com "Commander Admiral Hackett is on the line wanting to talk to you." Looking at the bodies on last time he nods "ok joker patch it through the com room I'm on my way."
Shepard stood in the com room back straight and arms folded behind the small of his back as he waited for Admiral Hackett's to speak "Commander thanks for taking the time to talk to me the Alliance has a mission for you."
He sighs to himself "what you need sir." Hoping it would be anything to big.
"Well we know you're after any leads on Saren and his Geth so when I heard about this I thought you should know."
"I appreciate that sir so what is the mission?"
"The Geth have set up a number of small outposts in the Armstrong Cluster of the Skyllian Verge."
"Thank you sir that is something I will look into it as soon as possible we were just on the way to the citadel for resupply but I can put that off for another few days."
"Thank you commander I'm sending you all the information we have on this but it's not enough in afraid our probes that we sent out were destroyed before we can get any real details all we know is that there are four planets each somewhere in Vamshi, Hong, Tereshkova and finally Gagarin clusters"
Shepard slowly paces the room as Hackett speaks "that's not much sir so I'm guessing I'm going to have to scan each planet in the cluster."
"I'm afraid so Shepard but they main thing is I'm leaving it up to you on how to deal with this Geth incursion"
Shepard stops pacing the room and leans on the railing "ok I will get it done sir you can count on it." The com flickers for a second after which Hackett's voice come through clear.
"Never doubted it commander good luck we are counting on you Hackett out."
Shepard turns on his heels and walks out the room and up the ramp to the galaxy map "Joker set a course for the Armstrong cluster" jokers voice sounds over the com "Aye commander updating galaxy map now ETA 10 hours" nodding to himself he walks out the CIC and down into his cabin.
Tali stood in engineering at her terminal optimising the drive core output it was a boring job but she didn't mind it kept her thoughts from drifting back to John she had never seen him so angry and now with his biotic's it was a scary sight, she shuddered as the memory of john pinning the young Cerberus woman to the wall and ripping her apart she might of deserved it, john still hadn't opened up about Akuze yet maybe she should go find him and try to talk to him even if she did find him would he even talk to her, sighing to herself she turns on her heel and walks out engineering. As she walks into the cargo bay her Omni-tool beeps looking at the caller her breathe hitches as she hits the accept button.
"Tali'Zorah have you found your pilgrimage gift?"
Taking a calming breathe and trying not to stutter "no father."
On the screen the mini image of her father shakes his head "Tali you disappoint me a lot is expected from you."
Tali feel her pulse quicken and her heart beat painfully in her chest "what I'm doing now is very important as in galaxy important I'm on a human vessel fighting Saren and his Geth."
"NO that is a human problem not Quarian, you will leave that ship right now and get on with your pilgrimage."
She shakes her head "no father if I don't help all of us will be killed there will be nowhere we can hide from the Reapers, I will not leave this ship it's to important Mother would understand she was always the caring one."
The image on screen goes silent then rage flares in the luminous eyes "how dare you accuse me of knowing my Nihya better than you, I should slap you for being so ignorant."
Tali watches as the image rages "sorry father I will not listen to you anymore goodbye."
"Tali as admiral I order you to leave…"
She hits the button and disconnects the call and enters the elevator heading to John's cabin.
John lay on his bed when he heard the door to his room open and Tali's slender form walk in "John can we talk?" he hears a sadness in her voice that pulls at his heart
"Sure come lie with me." He says as he pulls her down onto his bed and wraps his arms around her, he feels her snuggle into him and he sighs in happiness as he starts to rub her arms with his hand up and down.
"Oh john that feels nice." He looks at her and kisses the top of her helmet he feels her hands start to move over his chest feeling his muscled chest and arms.
Tali blushes as her hands move over Johns body feeling his muscled chest and arms in a bold move she sits on top of him with her legs either side of his body, she runs her hands over his chest and grabs his shirt and pulls it over him as he sits up, she trances the number of scars on his chest earning a few chuckles along the way.
John laughs as Tali traces a tickly scar he is enjoying Tali feeling his body under her slender hands he is acutely aware of how firm her hips are, a blush spreads his face as his body betrays him and reacts to Tali's form "erm Tali"
Tali looks at Shepard with a frown as she feels as something rises below her with a confused frown she lifts her body and looks down to see a point rising from Shepard's pants, she raises her helmeted face to his and watches as a blush spreads on John's face "is that"
"yep" he says "I'm sorry if it makes you uncomfortable"
In a bold move that surprises her she grinds her body against his and moans "I have read about something you call dry humping" she says which shocks her as she didn't stutter once.
Shepard smiles "oh did you now." As he pushes upwards to meet Tali's downward thrusts, he feels as her right hand slowly moves down his body and grabs him carefully and rubs him up and down in time with her thrusts.
"Oh john." The name leaves her lips in a moan as she feels her centre pulse and him tense beneath her as they both thrust on more time and she feels herself tense as pleasure erupts in her and she falls forward into Shepard's big strong arms.
