"You look good Shep" Kasumi said in the sky car where Shepard in the passenger and Ben in the back.

"Urm Thanks. So this greybox. I assume There a reason your desperate to get it"

"Your right, it contains memories of Keiji a colleague that I used to work with"

"used to"

"He sadly….Passed on" Shepard can hear the guilt in Kasumi it almost affection in her tone of voice so he does not press on the matter. Ben who been sitting in the back frowns hearing this almost remembering his friends deaths but this is not about him.

"Hello Chop liver back here. So what the play"

Kasumi jumped at Ben present company "Sorry. We going to a formal part for the worst of the worst. Hosted by yours truly Donovon Hock a no good scoundrel with connections with eclipse"

Ben points at Hock holo figure "I heard of him"

Shepard looked back at Ben in the sky car "Really"

Ben nods "He came to Horizon months before the collector attack. He spoke to the mayor of the town that I lived in. Well now I know why. I should send a message to Kaiden, Let them know not to trust Sanctuary, he was funding it"

Kasumi coughed "Moving on, The plan is simple. We give Donovon a present of your old friend Saren. Inside there will contain, your weapons and amour plus with my level of skill I make the armour not even pop up on radar. Ben you're going as Big chill to find the vault entrance. Once you find it send a silent notice on your omni tool of it location. Once we find it we go from there. I expect heavy security and locks" Ben and Shepard nod "Shepard you be going as Solomon Gun an alias I created with many criminal connections"

"looks like we coming close to the entrance" Shepard stated

"Then I better get change then" Ben hits the Omnitrix. A Green light flashes "Big Chill. See you on the other side" Ben goes intangible and floats down into the floor. As the sky car was landing.

"that never gets old"

"really Miranda being trying to get him to stop that."

"she really needs to loosen up. Ben acts how he acts. Though I looking forward to her educating him" wink, wink

"urggg. It just a simple understanding of our history and culture. Nothing of what your suggesting"

"Uh huh" Kasumi smirk in Response

They get out of the sky car, seeing the golden face of Saren coming towards the entrance. They themselves walk up to the entrance only to be meet by a guard. "Scuse me sir but something wrong with the statue"

Shepard grumble "Of course something wrong with it. It Saren. Even after death he can't leave me alone" Kasumi Elbow bashed him in the waist.

? "is there something wrong here"

Both Kasumi and Shepard look up to see Hock.

Guard "Sorry boss. There seems to be something wrong with the statue."

"I Highly doubt our guests here would bring in something that can cause such trouble." He looks at Shepard/Solomon "Right?

"None at all Mr Hock. Name Solomon Gun. Though I am sorry this has cause a problem and you were taking away from your party"

Hock narrow his eyes "I apricate it."

Guad 'coughs' "Statue clean"

"looks like you can join the part Mr Gunn. Try and enjoy yourself but your friend here stays outside." He looks at Kasumi then back at Shepard/Solomon "I hope you understand. I had a few break-ins. Just want to cover my track as the criminals would say"

Shepard/solomon nods "I understand, you can't trust what you can't see"

Hock smirks "Exactly. Enjoy your time here my Gunn." Hock walks back to his party.

Shepard and Kasumi walk to the side in silent "I don't like this"

"I know Kasumi, but we don't have a lot of options and he clearly knows who you our given his reaction"

"your right . I go invisible and follow you from distance hopefully we can get back what doesn't belong to him"

"beep"

Shepard open his omni-tool "Looks like Ben find the vault."

"That was quick. Anything else"

"Yeah. He says it triple locked, quadruple is you count the sensor grid on the entrance of the vault. He also stated that we need to get Hock voice print"

"Shit. If only I was recording earlier" Shepherd Smirk at that

"Well Ben getting the DNA and Password. Not in that order. We also need to take down the sensor grid but we need to locate it first"

"I can deal with that. You think you can get the big man talking."

"Of course"


A few minutes later and Meanwhile with Ben.


"I need to find the security office. I also need to find DNA and the Bedroom the best bet" Ben goes intangible a fly through the building being invisible to the naked eye. He sees both Shepard walk in but not Kasumi.

Ben thoughts 'Hmm Kasumi must be invisible'

Ben sees a door in the corner of the main room next to stairs that are of limit. He goes through to see a long hallway and the security office. Big chill blue eyes widen. He though 'Bingo' He flies in. He sees Two guards. He smirks. He un-intangible himself.

"Hi"

The Guards shock "the…/where the" They did not get to finish when Ben Frost Breath to in case them in ice.

"Have a nice sleep. Now for the password" He goes up to the computer and starts searching. He also starts looking around the office. He notice on the security terminal that they a list of guest one of them is called Lawson and his occupation.

"Well Hello. It seems princess father is running Sanctuary or at least when it up and running that is" He stop the search on the computer and looks around. He notice a data pad. He picks it up. He smirks.

"Best send this off to Kasumi. Now for the DNA" He flies up to look for Kock Bedroom.


Back with Shepard in the party.


"Ben just sent me the password it Peruggia"

"Good is the sensor" He was cut of.

"Yes first thing I did when after I went to the vault door. I traced the circuity back to the source. Now we need his voice and wait for the DNA"

"Record me, I get that voice"

"on it boss man" Shepard starts walking up to Hock. "after you".

"Ahh My gun I hope you're having a good time that scene at the door hasn't soured your evening I hope"

"Not at all. I understand the security but who would dare break in the Donovan Hock home"

"Mr gun in our line of work we attract a certain element if you understand the pines we take to keep the barbarians at bay. people these days want comfort, entertainment and love they don't see that the galaxy is fragile. I only have to worry about simple luxuries why because people like me and you are doing the terrible things that keep the galaxy spinning. This party is for us. The cleaners. The support structure for the galaxy's gleeful delusions of peace may there always be a market for the things we do.

Everyone in the background claps at Donovan rousing speech.

"well you got him talking. Lets head to the vault once Ben gets that DNA. Right now it best to mingle so you don't stand out"

Shepard Smirks "Time for the famous Shepard Dance"

Kasumi groans " I seen vids. You were not pretty"


Back with Ben


"Fansy" Ben looks around the room for DNA.

1 hour later

"That was not easy" He opens up his Omni-tool and sends a message to Kasumi to meet him at the Vault. She sends a video back. His eyes widen.

"What the fuck am I seeing"

2 minutes later everyone back together in the vault entrance.

"you going to shut the door behind us"

Kasumi nods and does that. A wild Ben appears

"Hey."

Kasumi turns back with a grin "Ben. Shepard go get change. I shut down the cameras in the elevator" A hidden draw underneath the Saren statue opens up relieving Shepard N7 armour and his weapons.

"Well I'm going to get change too" Ben reaches for the Omnitrix turns in dial and hits it.

"Eye Guy!"

Shepard stop getting change and looked at Ben "Eye Guy?" A bat like man with Pale yellow skin and eyes across his body.

"yeah, you can question my name choices after you get better at dancing. Figure It be nice to have a heads up if anything happens when we hit the treasure room"

"Alright Elevator is clear annnd you look creepy Ben"

"Trust me we won't be caught off guard when I am Eye Guy"

Kasumi snorted "Eye Guy really?"

"Everyone a fucking critique. Let just go" Shepard just finished getting change at that point.

All three look back when the elevator doors slam shut


The Vault room


The doors open. Ben walks out first. He scouts around standing there with his eyes moving about. He looks back. "it clear but there a squadron of eclipse mercs on the other side of that door over there." He points to the doors on the far side of the room "They don't look like they know we here but we best hurry just in case"

Shepard nods. Kasumi walks on ahead. Shepard ask "How.?"

"Eye guy has can see through most things and detect heat sources. So ambushed don't work on me that well when I am in this form"

Eye guy/Ben looks around further until he spots "Hang on, what's that doing here" He runs towards the object.

Over with Kasumi and Shepard "That the M-12 Locust the gun that killed two presidents" She looks over. "And here the Keiji Greybox" She picks it up. Caressing it. Teas pop out of her.

"Kasumi?"

"Oh… Sorry Shepard"

"it okay Take your time"

Ben chims in here appearing from whence he came "Sorry but we don't have time the eclipse guards are gearing up. There know we here"

Hock appeared in giant Holo graphic face "Ah miss Goto, I was wondering if that was you at the door but you can never be too carful…." Eye guy shoot a eye laser in his face. It passed through him. Hock was not amused

Shepard looked at him. Raised eyebrow in full. "you never told he can do that"

Eye guy shrugged "you never asked"

Kasumi chuckle "Boys the bad guy still clearly wants to monologue here"

"Oh yeah sorry but your boring. So we just going to go now"

"WHAT NOO!. Guards get them."

The eclipse guards rush in. They see eye guy first "What the fuck/The hell is that thing"

"Im Batman!" Kasumi snorts. Shepard chuckles.

A grunt just snorted "No your Not"

Eye guy/Ben Smirk "Worth a try" A eye pop out of his chest and fires at the guards. Shepard and Kasumi pull out they respected guns and starts firing towards them.

"Shepard, your right" Shepard turns right and uses a high powered throw at the eclipse merc. Eye guy blast a few more mercs "Kasumi Behind you" A cloaked Kasumi hits a merc on the back of his head to then turn around and get smacked by a sentinel merc.

"You bitch, it took me…." A green blast hit said sentinel in the chest.

"you good" Eye guy ask while given out his hand to pull Kasumi up. "Yeah, going to feel that one tomorrow." Shepard comes up to us. "Is that all of them"

Eye guy/Ben checks "For now but we need to leave and I just found us a way out" Kasumi and Shepard look towards each other, then look to see where Ben was going.

Eye guy creepily smiles "Say Hello to the RustBucket"

"Urm Ben, how is that going to get us out of here"

"Oh that easy, I just turn into upgrade and get us the hell out of here, while you guys are safe inside of course. Although what it doing here and how it got here is a mystery in of itself."

"Ben that the most stupidest plan ever. How would Upgrade help this thing get going. In fact how will even break down the door" Eye Guy smiles at that question remembering how beefy the Rustbucket can be. The tears storm across his eyes. Both Kasumi and Shepard notice.

"Just get in" Eye guy Opens the door to the rustbucket allowing entry for Kasumi and Shepard. Eye guy hits the Dial of the Omnitrix "Upgrade!" He slams his head of the hood of the Campa. Upgrading it. The design of the Rustbucket was a greyish Yellow with red strips now with upgrade it shows a circuitry wiring of green and black throughout the body. Shepard and Kasumi where sitting in the front driver and passenger seat of the Rustbucket But there looked around to see the interior of the campa and it was old. Like it was styled around the early 20th century.

Upgrade head pop out of the dashboard of the of the campa "You two better hold on tight"


A few minutes later


Hock over loud speaker "Don't let them escape. Trap them"

"Dam Chief Row got hit. Fuck these guys must be… wait what that noise"

The Upgraded Rustbucket smash the wall into where the guard are holding there location. They eyes widen. The RustBucket charges a head smashing into each wall. The Guards are fucking terrified as the thing as they like to call it. smashed everyone heads in.

"I don't Pay you eclipse mercs to stand around a gulp, fire back your MORONS!. I want that Girl alive. Solomon and the creature are not important." So they did fire back while it was still charging at the exit.

"Woah Ben, remind me again, you can do this to the Normandy" Shepard ask while holding on to dear if in the Rustbucket.

His head pop out "Yeah, When I say upgrade, I mean upgrade. Weapons, Fire power, defences I can even add body modifications. Though Joker will not like it. Did you forget about the cannons on horizon" Shepard Eyes widen forgetting about that tib bit of information. Kasumi whistle.

"EEeeeeeeeek"

"What was that Ben"

"Well, good news I can fly us out of here if the Normandy picks us up halfway through. This thing not bult for space travel 'yet'"

"What the Bad news, Circuit boy"

"Donovan Infront of us in a Gunship" Both Shepard and Kasumi look up through the window of the Rustbucket. The both muttered "Shit"

"You Know Kasumi, if you only stop and think this all could have been prevented if you just DIE! Like poor oh Keiji" Donovan start firing upon them with heavily loaded missiles and a Gatleen gun. Ben start driving to the edge dodging the strike coming from Donovan.

Kasumi was, tearing up "Shut you Murderer. I kill you! You Monster!" She starts getting up only for Ben to hold her down

"Kasumi. I have a plan. Shepard, I given you controls of the weapons. They old and won't do much damage but right now we need to by time" Shepard nods and looks at the controls. "Urm what's the plan?"

"I scanned Donovan Gunship. His shields are, outsourced. If Kasumi gets close"

"I be able to Hack in and cut of that source. Let's Gut the bastard" Kasumi exclaim while still tearing up.

"good Because the RustBucket flight mode is in 3, 2, 1 Transform" Shepard and Kasumi are a little shaken by the Transformation, but it become smooth after that. It was an intense sky battle against. The weapons on the Rustbucket does not do as well as Morden weapons but does hold off until the Rustbucket doors open up. They now above Hock.

"Kasumi Jump" Ben shouts. She does so landing on top of Donovan Gunship. Donovan and Kasumi lock eyes with each other. Kasumi uses her Omni-tool to Hack and destroy the Gunship shields.

"BEN NOW!" Kasumi Jumps off Being caught by the Rustbucket sideways down.

Donovan was confused "What?" He looks up to see Shepard on top of the Rustbucket aiming a rocket launcher. Shepard fires hitting Donovan and destroying his Gunship.

"Joker" He climbs back in the Rustbucket "Meets us halfway for pickup."


A few minutes later


Kasumi Sitting on the Lounge chair opens up her Omni-tool Reviewing Keiji Memories from the greybox. They was a lot to go through. Ben Helped configer the data through parts of Upgrade.

"How did it go"

"oh it fine"

"Want my opinion."

"Sure?"

"Destroy them"

"What? But Ben there"

"Of your Boyfriend I know but Kasumi, you need to let go. He want you to move on"

"That sounds like personal experience"

"Maybe it is but you know that these memories will hurt you in the long run"

Shepard appear behind "Ben right, this is what Keiji wants"

"Shepard I" Tears flooding down her face. Pressing one Button hesitating. Rain started pouring further out of her eyes "I.. I Can't Do it" Shepard steps forward "Here Let me" Kasumi nods and Shepard press the button

"GoodBye Keiji"
