Chapter 16: Operation Neptune
Summary: Zaeed and Jack lead an assault to capture the Normandy!
Illium Spaceport Normandy
Gun Battery.
“Garrus, are you here?” Jack called out.
Under one of the generators the Turian was performing another one of his calibrations. Garrus cursed himself under his breath as he slid himself out from one of the guns.
“Over here, Come to thank the great Vakarian for getting you out of Purgatory?” Garrus said sarcastically.
“Oh yeah Thanks….So what are we going to do about Shepard?” Jack asked with great concern.
“Well I am going to wait until Zaeed comes back from his latest scouting mission and then go out and find the son of bitches that have her and kill every damn one of them, then I am going to hit the closest bar and get drunk off my ass.” Garrus flatly stated.
“That sounds like a fucking plan, Shepard is the only reason I was here, I do not want to hang around with these Cerberus fucks any longer than I have to. So where are your guns? I want you to be ready as soon as he comes back.
“Easy now girl ,my guns are over there. I am almost done with my calibrations. Let get them finish then we will get ready I will give one more hour to Zaeed then we can go out ourselves for Shepard.” Garrus reassured Jack.
“Over there you say, well” Jack said as her demeanor changed.
“I will destroy you!!!” Jack yelled as she sent a nasty shockwave at Garrus who was caught entirely off guard. Garrus went flying into the wall hard. The calibrator in his hand flew into a mess of other tools. Garrus tried to activate his Omni-tool only to find it damaged. He did not have to time to do much else as she let loose a kick to Garrus head, he promptly lost conscience afterwards.
“Sorry, but it is better this way, Cerberus must pay and I have now a better deal. You’ll live you sexy beast cannot say the same about the rest of these fucks. You cannot follow me where I am going.” Jack said with a hint of regret. Jack methodically took the restraints and locked up Garrus and planted a kiss on his forehead.
“Why did you do that Captain Jack?..I was looking forward to seeing him on his knees”, Evil EDI blared out.
What the fuck? What the hell was on that data program I uploaded to EDI? , Jack thought to herself before saying, “Just stay focused. There will time to enjoy ourselves later.”
As Jack went to go to the docking room she smirked at some of the Cerberus crew and thought, Times almost up assholes then you are going to be in my world.
Jack casually walked up and hit the button. Then suddenly from the other side of the door scores of soldiers uncloaked at the same time. The new Shadow Broker’s troopers came pouring in, a fire fight immediately ensued.
Jacob upon hearing the sound of cloaking devices uncloaking immediately grabbed for his gun. He let lose a volley before the Broker’s soldiers were able to get to the galaxy map.
EDI came to life next to Joker, “Slave on your knees!”
Joker tried to use the controls on the front of the ship only to find them unpowered.
“Oh fucking great just when I started to like you!” Joker quipped.
“Not as much as I am going to like you, pet, now on your knees.” Evil EDI commanded, emphasizing her point with an electric bolt that struck a few centimeters away from Joker’s head.
Joker immediately got out of the chair and got to his knees and placed his hands behind his head.
“I so do like the sight of humans on their knees” Evil EDI seductively giggled.
“Do not harm him, we need him alive” EDI commanded to two soldiers who came to secure the cockpit.
Jacob was leading about four of the crew to make a stand behind the galaxy map. He was quickly running out of time however, because Jack had erected a barrier to protect the men behind her. She then started to slowly walk forward.
Jacob looked at his situation and ordered his men to make a tactical retreat to the crew deck.
“I have had enough of this shit, Firing Concussive shot!” Zaeed yelled.
Jacob’s eyes went wide when he heard the order and immediately leaped from his position. The rest of the squad were not as lucky as the concussive shot slammed the other three members into the wall. Jacob did not have enough time to worry about them because Zaeed and his men were closing in on his position. Jacob ran through the science lab and slid down the ladder to the crew deck.
Zaeed smiled as he realized they had the deck 2 secured. “This is Zaeed we control the science lab and the armory. All teams proceed to the crew deck.
Normandy Cargo Bay
The start of the attack was twofold one from the docking tunnel into the airlock and the other was from the cargo bay.
EDI lowered the cargo bay doors and immediately a fleet of flying trucks came pouring in each holding about ten troops. The lower bay was overwhelmed before anyone knew what was going on. The mechanics did not even have a chance to get to their guns as they were pelted with stun shots. It was not long for the soldiers from the Cargo bay to move up to the next level. They were already on the Engineering deck when Zaeed informed them that” Deck 2 had been secured. “
It was only a matter of a couple of minutes before the two engineers Ken and Gabby were both captured.
“Um Sir, the Krogan…..he’s gone!” exclaimed one of the Sergeants.
Intense gunfire could be heard from the other side of the radio.
“What in the bloody hell do you mean he is gone?” ,Zaeed barked from the other end of the radio.
“Well he is not here!” responded the Sergeants.
The sound of someone getting shotcexplodes through the other side of the radio.
“Very well secure the prisoners, and send everyone else to the crew deck take the Artificial Intelligence ladder tell the men, weapons ready. Holy Hell stay under cover I am not going to tell you again!” Zaeed barked.
The person did not hear him, because he had just been shot in the head. The fighting was intense as Jacob and the rest of the men were putting up one hell of a fight. Jacob shot a pull bolt at one of the Broker's men and his men did the rest. Another one down. Jacob thought to himself.
The Battle of the Crew Quarters.
Zaeed and his men were now in control of the med bay, gun battery and the executive cabin. Jacob and the remaining crew were mounting a last stand on the port and starboard observation bays, life support and crew quarters. The mess hall between them a no man’s land. The floor between the two were already littered bodies.
Jacob took out another one of the Broker’s soldiers as he was mustering a wild last stand. If was not for him the Normandy would have been overrun a while ago. Zaeed told Jack to stay back because he was worried about a biotic explosion, but now it was getting to the point where he needed someone to tip the balance back into their favor.
“All right you pussies get out of my way!!! Jack said holding a shotgun.
“EDI lights out!” Jack said as she looked up at the ceiling.
The lights and everything powered down on Jacob’s side of the ship.
“I will destroy you!!!” Jack screamed as she let loose a shockwave directly at the crew quarter barricade.
The men behind the table barricade go knocked off their feet. The tables forming the barricade flipped over and got knocked to the side, the remaining crew were completely exposed. Jacob was in the process of giving orders when he was hit by the shockwave, which also knocked the gun out of his hand. Jacob rolled before could be totally knocked down however and was in the process of reaching for another gun from a dead crewmate, when the hail of bullets killed three of the crew in front of the dead crewmate. Jacob stopped knowing he would be unable to get to the gun. Unfortunately for Jacob, it meant that he was now surrounded and unarmed.
Jacob started powering up when Jack interjected swashed in blue biotic power,”I fucking dare you…..”
Jacob immediately powered down and put his hands in the air.
Jack looked at Jacob up and down and smirked to herself. “Good choice…”
The rest of the crew surrendered immediately. The Normandy was theirs.
The rest of the Crew
Mordin Solus had gotten the communication the day prior to the attack. It had been over a week since anyone saw Shepard, and the probability of a successful mission was ‘problematic’ according to Mordin analysis. Simulation and simulation had the crew dying without successfully completing their mission without Commander Shepard. So when he got the message that Morlan one of his former researchers on his former team was captured on Tuchanka. He decided it was time to leave the Normandy and focus on rescuing his friend.
Mordin was in the process of packing when he got a report from Kelly Chambers that Grunt had been acting strange. As the ship’s doctor he decided to check it out. He made the conclusion that Grunt needed to get back to Tuchanka ,so the Krogan could get Grunt the help he needed.
“How long before we get there!! I cannot take this much longer!!” barked Grunt.
“Calm down, we will get there soon enough.” Mordin said from the pilot seat of the Cerberus shuttle.
Mordin smirked as the sedative he gave Grunt was finally starting to work. Grunt closed his eyes thankful the blood rage would not be bothering him for the time being.
Mordin sighed as he put in the final nav points of Tuchanka. The Cerberus Shuttle being more than adequate to get them there. With any luck Morlan was still alive. Mordin thought to himself as he approached the mass relay.
The small hiccup!
It had been a successful mission. The men were in good spirits and now they had one of the most advanced ship in the galaxy. The prisoners were being loaded onto the trucks used to transport the soldiers, they would be heading to the new command center at Azure.
One truck driver did not know what hit him as one minute he was looking forward to celebrating back at the ship and the next he was looking at a sword protruding through his chest.
“Throw him out, I’ll drive, Kill the guards in the back!” Hope barked out as she slid into the driver’s seat.
Kai Leng nodded and did not say a word as he withdrew his sword from the man’s chest and flipped up on the roof throwing the driver over the side in the process.
There were four guards in the back between the prisoners. Two of the guards fell over the side when something hit them square in the chest. The other two guards started looking for someone to shoot when Kai Leng began his second attack.
One guard went screaming as he went over the side. The other guards started immediately to shoot only to be stopped when his head went rolling on the bed of the truck.
Kai Leng looked at the prisoners, which included a Turian and nine Cerberus crewman from the Normandy including Ken Donnelly.
“We are taking command of the Lazarus cell.” Uttered Kai Leng
“So Turian are you in or shall we drop you off?” Kai Leng asked.
Garrus looked at Kai Leng and said,”If you are going after the bastards that have Shepard count me in, just tell me where to shoot.”
“Very well, I am sure you will have plenty of the Broker’s men to shoot.” Leng uttered before sliding back into the cab of the flying truck.
So it is the Broker that has Shepard. Garrus thought to himself.
“The Illusive man is sending in some more men to meet us at Illium base Alpha.” Hope said as Leng sat down next to her.
“So it begins” Kai Leng said as the two Cerberus agent were about to start a war against the Broker’s men on Illium.
