Freeman's Odyssey

Chapter: 104

Just like old times


Starship Normandy

The shuttle has arrived on board the ship of the Normandy Two, Gordon had heard the first one had been destroyed by the collectors and rebuilt by the fanatic group known as Cerberus. The ship itself looked rather clean as he is in the elevator with Tail, Shepard, Miranda and Garrus. Then the elevator doors opened in which they stepped out and Gordon followed them to a briefing room as a couple of others are there. A female with tattoos, a black male in armor, a Salarian, a scarred male in armor and a woman wearing a black cloak.

"You've been busy Shepard," said Gordon

"I can say the same for you," said Shepard "Kicking Collector ass,"

"How did you get on board a collector ship without they even knowing it was you," asked Miranda

"Cloaking system," said Gordon "Nothing special,"

"You mean you have the same technology as I have," said the woman

"No, I am a dimensional traveler," said Gordon "My suit can scan for certain technologies,"

"Dimensional travel is impossible," said the Salarian "Considering math calculations between one point in reality and to another is 300 million to one,"

"Mr. Freeman it is an honor to meet you," said the black male "A lot of buzz has been going around about you,"

"Hey Gordon still kicking combine ass," said Joker "And by the way welcome aboard,"

"Can we stop kissing this guys ass," said the tattooed woman "Seriously I am going to throw up,"

"Be nice Jack," said Tail

"For starters," said Gordon "You and Kliner would get along just fine. I don't know anybody else here, but I am a quick learner and Joker. By the looks of it you're gathering a team for some reason,"

"We're going after the collectors in Dark Space," said Shepard "As impossible odds are right at us,"

"Then let's make it possible to win," said Gordon "As I have been up against impossible odds before, so I am in. Now it's time for the introductions,"

"Agreed and we're gathering more people," said Shepard "Glad to have you aboard and…Grunt is in the hold, you'll see him soon,"

Shepard gave the introductions one by one to Gordon in giving their names and suddenly a holographic image of a ball appeared in which Shepard called her EDI.

"Hey Joker I think I found the perfect girlfriend for you," said Gordon

"Fuck you Gordon," said Joker

"Do you believe I can be the perfect girlfriend as you say to Mr. Monroe," said EDI

"Only time will tell," smiled Gordon

After time rolls along Gordon went on several missions throughout the galaxy and mingled with the crew as Jack is kind of hard person to talk to, but he managed to win her over with a few stories of his. Grunt on the other hand has a thirst for battle and Gordon mentioned the Combine as Grunt wanted to fight them, but another fight is looming so someday it would happen. Gordon had a feeling that Shepard and Miranda have a thing going of some sort, of course he had a conversation with the others including Jacob, Garrus, and the others as well.

He had a long conversation with Tail as they swapped ideas, Gordon noticed by her body language that she seems to have a crush on him and then of course Gordon helped her come to grips in what her father had done and Tail was exonerated from what her father had done, in which Tail is now an admiral.

Continuing on the adventures they meet up with a drell assassin and a Asari Justicar along the way they meet up with an Laira and then going on solo missions considering the crew has unfinished business. Also a Geth called Legion whom the machine seems interested in Gordon's dimensional ideas. A geth space station was destroyed and Gordon helped form a friendship between Legion and Tail


Later: Dark Space collector base

The team has assembled in knowing it will be a long fight.

"We don't know how many the Collectors have stolen. Thousands, hundreds of thousands. It's not important." Said Shepard "What matters is this: Not. One. More. That's what we can do here, today. It ends with us. They want to know what we're made of? I say we show them, on our terms. Let's bring our people home."

"You heard him," said Gordon "Let's give them hell."

Squad leaders are chosen and the battle has begun in which everyone is playing their parts. Gordon on the other hand has first hand knowledge of what they can expect from inside a collector ship. It felt like a full scale war and Gordon has experience going against impossible odds, the deeper they got the more intense it became until they came at the end and appeared some large machine a human-Reaper. Taking it down wasn't easy and it got the job done until suddenly the Illusive man showed up in wanting this base not to be destroyed.

"So you finally show your face," said Gordon "I'd say destroy this place it is an abomination,"

"It will be the salvation of mankind," said IM "We can-"Gordon interrupted him

"Spare me the lecture Jack Harper," said Gordon "I know who you are and your connection to Saren." He pointed out "You claim Cerberus is about protecting humanity. It is never about Cerberus it is about you getting power for yourself and that makes you no different than the Combine," then snarled a bit at a certain name "Or Doctor Breen."

"You don't know who you are talking about," said IM then he gives orders to Miranda as she ignores them.

"Don't turn your back on me, Shepard! I made you, I brought you back from the dead!" said the Illusive man

Shepard begins the countdown to destroy this place as the transmission ended. Then everybody is running like hell out of this place, but Gordon got them out quick by opening a dimensional portal to one point to another on board the Normandy. Everyone got on board and the Normandy flies off away from the explosion and away from dark space.


Aftermath

It was a call for celebration as everyone survived by Gordon's suit picked up a signal as the collector base exploded and of course he mentioned this to the crew as they know their work is cut out for them and the Reapers are coming. Gordon decided he will leave, but first he decided to have some fun with someone.

"Gordon you're tickling me," said Tail

"You know I could ask Kliner to make a hazmat suit for you like mine," said Gordon "Besides you look beautiful with out your suit,"

"You think so," said Tail "I know you will be going soon,"

"It was fun while it lasted," said Gordon

"Promise to come back," said Tail

"Always," said Gordon

Later on that night Gordon said his goodbyes and activated his portal technology as he simply vanished.
