Author’s notes: This is the 28th chapter in my fanfic about Captain Megan Shepard and her beautiful lover, Miranda Lawson. After seeing how badly Mass Effect 3 fucked up, I’ve decided to fuck over most of canon and come up with my own version of ME3. Don’t even get me started on how much of a whore Bioware has become, what with their DLC spam. Anyways, here’s the NEW link to the video of Megan and Miranda making love for extra visual clarity: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPx43Qqw1X8.

“Stay safe down there, alright?”Lieutenant Commander Miranda Anne Lawson gently pleaded with her wife, Captain Megan Cassandra Shepard. “Only if you promise me you’ll stay safe on the ship, ok?”Megan asked in return, grasping both of Miranda’s soft, delicate hands in her own as Miranda let out a soft chuckle. “Sweetie, I’m aboard the ship. I can’t possibly get harmed here.” “Miri, just promise me ok? You’re due any day now.”Megan whispered as she gently rubbed Miranda’s belly, now swollen with her ninth month of pregnancy. “Alright Cassie, it’s a deal. Come back to me safely, alright?”The brunette asked in return as the Spectre just nodded and kissed her on the forehead before getting into the shuttle that would bring the team down to an abandoned mine on Aequitas.

While Megan was scanning planets for additional resources, she stumbled upon hundreds of anomalous life signs upon Aequitas, and according to EDI, there was also a huge energy signature of Reaper origins somewhat similar to Object Rho that Megan and Miranda had encountered in the Bahak system. That was why Megan was taking no chances with it and she was bringing Captain Thomas David Hansen, her old friend Garrus Vakarian, Ashley Williams, Grunt, Jack, Legion, Jentha, Erin, Samara, Nyla and Verlus down to the mine with her to investigate the anomaly. And Miranda was worried sick for Megan as she could not accompany her wife to investigate the anomaly as she was in the final weeks of her pregnancy.

Miranda just stood there in the waiting bay in the shuttle bay, watching through the glass as she watched the shuttle depart with her wife and her team as she absentmindedly rubbed her stomach. “Stay safe down there for our children, Megpie.” “LC Lawson, I understand your fears but it is completely unfounded. Shepard more than capable of taking care of herself.” Professor Mordin Solus consoled her in his usual rapid fire speech as he stood beside her. “I suppose you’re right. But I can’t help but worry about her.”Miranda let out a small laugh at that. “Perfectly normal for pregnant females to constantly worry about wellbeing of their mates. Turian women the most paranoid amongst races. Can’t wait for Shepard to relay her findings about object in the mine back to me. Can’t wait to study Reaper device more.”Mordin hummed as he activated his omnitool, Miranda smiling to herself at the salarian genius’ behavior.

Meanwhile in the shuttle, Jack was sandwiched between the shuttle door and Grunt. “Move over you fat fuck! You’re squeezing the hell outta me here!”The biotic ex-convict grumbled as she vainly struggled with Grunt to get more space for herself. “Shut up Jack. You grumble too much.”Grunt, well, grunted as he just sat there checking his Claymore over, restraining his excitement at the prospect of facing down hundreds of unknown creatures. “This platform will gladly sacrifice the space it currently inhabits to provide greater comfort for Jack-Convict.”Legion announced as it stood up in the shuttle, positioning itself near the door. “Well thank you tin-can. See that Grunt? That’s what a real friend’s like, you fucking dumb piece of krogan.”Jack snorted as she moved over, stretching slightly in the larger space as Grunt just growled at her.

“Seriously Jackie, you can’t get past one minute without insulting someone, can you?”Ashley sighed at her girlfriend as Jack tensed up. “Don’t ‘Jackie’ me. Or do you want me to tell everyone about last week, where I had you tied up down in my old hidey-hole and you begging me to pound your ass with the huge new-” “Alright-alright Jack! Please just stop!”Ashley begged in a panic as Thomas, Garrus, Verlus and even Megan began to grin churlishly. “No don’t stop talking Jack, we’re very interested in the tale you’d like to tell us. Please, do continue.”The British sniper smirked at Ashley, who was growling loudly with her entire face beet red and her hand hovering over her pistol holster. “Tom’s right, Jack. I’d love to hear how you managed to get Ash to beg you for anal when I couldn’t touch Ash’s ass when we were dating just because she said it would be too painful and kinky for her.”Megan added with a wicked smile.

“Shut up!”Ashley hissed, thoroughly embarrassed as Jack just smirked. “Well…Ash is one very obedient and submissive honey with the right motivation, I’ll tell you that. Just don’t let her-”Jack continued before Ashley interrupted her with a vicious stomp on Jack’s boots before swallowing the ex-convict’s cry of pain with a vicious kiss. Thomas started wolf-whistling while Garrus and Verlus began snickering loudly. The rest of the team just looked at Ashley and Jack with highly bemused expressions on their faces and the shuttle began its final descent to the abandoned mine. As soon as Ashley broke the kiss, Jack began her threat. “I swear to whatever higher power there is out there that tonight, I will make you my bitch and make you beg me for forgiveness-”

“As interesting as that is, we have now landed. Thank you for flying Normandy Air, and please remember to put your underwear back on.”Heinz the shuttle pilot chuckled as the Kodiak’s doors swung open to reveal the entrance to the mine which was strangely open. “Heinz, you really have terrible timing. We were just about to hear what Jack was planning to do to Ashley tonight and you interrupted. I believe that there’s a human term for you…uh…quad-slapper?”Garrus grumbled good naturedly as Erin cut in. “The correct term is ‘cock-blocker’, Garrus.”The blonde chuckled as the entire team disembarked from the shuttle, Ashley still fuming mad at her girlfriend, who was just grinning like a maniac as she unholstered her Eviscerator shotgun.

“The mine entrance is wide open. That is very strange…all mines require that the entrances all be shut at all times unless there is loading or unloading taking place.”Samara observed as Megan walked up to her side. “Yeah. Wait…there’s something on the loading ramp…”The redheaded Captain muttered as her squad fell in line behind her as she headed towards the ramp to investigate. She set one foot onto the ramp, leaning forward to investigate the smears. “Blood. Lots of dried blood…and it looks like those bodies were dragged back there.”She continued, gesturing towards the mine as Thomas whistled lowly. “That’s a whole lot of blood. Probably more than one person was attacked…and judging by the amount of blood here, I’d say they all died.”The sniper observed grimly, shouldering his Geth Pulse Rifle as Ashley, Verlus and Grunt scouted the interior.

“Looks clear Shepard…but there’s a whole lot more blood here.”Ashley reported as Grunt added on. “There are weapons and spent heatsinks lying around…hmm…they’re cold. Must’ve been awhile since the fight.”The krogan rumbled as the team moved into the facility proper to join Ashley, Grunt and Verlus. “Stay sharp people. We’ve got a Reaper object, lots of blood and dropped weapons, and 380 missing staff. This could get really ugly.”Megan warned, checking her Claymore over to check if there was a heatsink in the chamber. “Alright team, the Reaper device is directly south-southeast of your current position, and its 50 metres down at the lower level of the mine according to the scans. Uploading the tacmap now.”Miranda, who was now supervising the mission from the bridge of the Normandy, guided the team.

“Thanks Miranda. Let’s move, and keep your eyes open.”Megan ordered as the team headed into the mine proper with Grunt, Legion and Nyla taking point. They took the elevator down into the mine, and when they reached, they saw a table with a few crates on it and a datapad. Jentha picked up the datapad and read off the still opened page aloud. “’If you are reading this…get the hell outta this place! Now!’ Huh, that sounds real ominous.”The ex-merc snorted as Legion surveyed the area. “Shepard –Commander! We have spotted several pools of congealed blood ahead. There are also drag marks leading to the back of the mine.”Legion informed the squad, his Geth Pulse Rifle in hand as he pointed at the pools of blood.

“There are blood spatters all around here, and they seem to be indicative that the victims were brutally slashed to death. The blood spatters in the entrance and living quarters appear to be the same.”Samara noted as Erin came to a conclusion. “Given the presence of a Reaper device here and the carnage, it would be safe to assume that we are facing husks.”The blonde supercomputer-in-human-form concluded as Jack snorted. “Great! All those zombies, so weak…so satisfying to kill. Wonder how many of them there are here.”The convict grinned, readying her shotgun as Grunt turned back to her and guffawed. “Hah! I knew there was a reason why I liked you, Cueball!”The krogan roared in approval as Jack just smirked back and gave him a middle finger salute.

“Jackie…please start looking after yourself. I’ve lost count of how many times you ended up injured just because you got so excited that you charged right into an insane number of enemies.”Ashley sighed in resignation as Jack simply smirked and pulled Ashley in for a brief but brutal kiss before letting go. “Squad, I’ve located the Reaper device. Head down the path on your left and keep going straight; you’ll get to it. Updating your tacmaps now.”Miranda radioed once more as Megan, Thomas and Nyla thanked her. “I don’t like this…it’s simply too quiet.”Verlus muttered as they walked down the path Miranda had indicated. “Yeah, it just means that whatever’s waiting will be a hell of a problem. But I thought you liked quiet, what with all the women you got together with.”Garrus ribbed his turian buddy, getting snickers from Megan, Jack, Thomas and Jentha, and an annoyed growl from Verlus.

“Alright guys, stow the chatter and watch for husks…if there are any.”Megan said as she led the way side-by-side with Legion, the Collector Assault Rifle at the ready. “There will be husks, I’m-”Erin began but was interrupted by a series of loud howls and blood-curdling screeches. “Yep you’re right Erin, there are husks here!”Megan warned, her voice rising as she and her squad spread out across the area. “Shepard! Grunt, Nyla, Jack and I will go up that catwalk and fire down upon the hostiles!”Thomas yelled as Megan nodded at him and yelled back “Go!” before the British sniper sprinted up the stairs followed by the krogan, the asari Spectre and the ex-convict. “There’s a huge hole in the wall behind you! Jentha, get up there and cover that breach!”The Captain yelled as Jentha just nodded and ran up to the catwalk, covering the breach with her Mattock.

Just two minutes later, the first of the husks began streaming in through the hallway that Megan and her team had secured and were aiming their weapons at. Legion was the first to fire, and he dropped three husks with his robot precision with a long burst of fire as everyone else began firing at the innumerable mass of husks making a suicide charge at the Normandy’s squad. Meanwhile in the Normandy, Miranda gasped in horror as she saw the number of hostiles that the combat scanner had detected. “Megan, watch yourself! The scans report that there are over 300 husks and abominations in the mine! Please be careful!”The brunette Lieutenant Commander pleaded with her wife and the father of the twins in her womb. “Don’t worry Miri, I’ll be fine! I already promised you that I’ll come back to you and the children, and I keep my promises!”Megan yelled back as she fired her Collector Assault Rifle while flinging a biotic shockwave at the husks.

“Ratatatatat! Kaboom! Kaboom!”Grunt roared in savage delight as he kept firing his Revenant machinegun at the swarming husks and abominations, blowing up a few abominations alongside the husks. Beside him, Thomas was busy emptying his rifle into the mass of husks that were swarming him while Nyla and Jack were both constantly throwing biotic shockwaves at the husks in order to keep them away from the team and kill some of the husks. Behind them on the catwalk, Jentha was busy shooting down the husks that were rushing through the rather large breach with her M96 battle rifle and she shot down nearly a dozen before she had to stop and eject the spent heatsink. Just as she was about to raise her Mattock to shoot more husks, 2 abnormally fast moving husks pounced about the ex-merc, knocking her back onto the ground, her rifle skittering out of reach.

“Get these things off me!”Jentha screamed in a panic as she frantically hit the two husks, trying to keep them from biting or clawing her. Unfortunately, one of the husks got through her panicky flailing, clawing her and leaving a set of deep set of gashes upon her pretty face as she cried out in pain. Nyla turned around to answer Jentha’s scream to find her lover pinned to the ground by a pair of husks with more joining in with a set of huge gashes in her face and the asari Spectre felt a feeling she hadn’t felt in a long time: fear. Nyla threw the two husks into the wall with a biotic throw, turning them into dead organic paste before unleashing a powerful singularity in the middle of the swarm of husks, trapping them as they floated and flailed about helplessly before hitting them with a powerful warp field while screaming “Don’t you dare touch my bondmate!”

Thomas and Jack turned around to look at the spectacle before the sniper yelled at Jack to send ‘more singularities and shockwaves up the arses of those zombies’ and ordered Nyla to cover the breach with Jentha. “Oh thank goddess Jenny! Are you hurt badly?”Nyla gasped as she pulled the Latina engineer back to her feet as kissed her on the lips briefly. “These cuts hurt real bad, but I’ll be fine.”Jentha gasped in pain as Nyla applied medigel onto the wounds inflicted by the husks before Jentha began firing at the husks again while Nyla sprayed down the husks with her X8 Avenger assault rifle while occasionally tossing either a singularity or a shockwave down the hole. Back on the ground, Megan, Erin, Garrus, Ashley, Verlus, Samara and Legion were busy firing their weapons at the still advancing husks, and their thermal clip supply was running low.

“We’re gonna run outta clips if we don’t finish this soon Shepard!”Verlus yelled as he knocked a husk back with a concussive shot, and said husk was bowled back into the throng of husks and bowled over a few, getting laughs from both Jack and Grunt. “Tell me something I don’t already know! Wait…I remember that there were some crates of thermal clips back up top! Legion, Grunt, you two go back up top and grab those ammo boxes! Garrus, you get up there and take over Grunt! Get to it!”Megan screamed over the cacophony of gunfire, throwing yet another biotic shockwave at the husks as Legion and Grunt complied, the geth deploying a drone to cover his squad as he and the krogan rushed back up top to grab the crates of thermal clips.

“I hope they make it back soon; we are almost out of ammunition!”Samara exclaimed, panting hard as she produced a massive singularity right in the middle of the passageway before Megan detonated the singularity with a reave field, reducing a significant number of husks into pulp and viscous fluid. “You and me both! Oh shit, I’m out of ammo!”Ashley yelled, holstering her now empty X15 Vindicator and switched to her Geth Plasma Shotgun, waiting for the enemies to come closer before firing so as to conserve her now depleted heatsink supply. “I’m out as well!”Erin cried in frustration, holstering her X9 Tempest and drawing her Phalanx as she summoned a combat drone which she had upgraded with a flamethrower to take care of the husks while she ducked behind cover, waiting for the husks to get closer just as Ashley had done.

Verlus was the next to run out of ammo on his X76, and he pulled out his S27 Scimitar shotgun and emptied it at the oncoming husks before drawing his knife in anticipation of going into close quarters with the husks. Thomas ran out of ammo just seconds later, and Megan ran out as well at the same time. Both biotics cursed loudly, holstering their rifles and throwing biotic shockwaves at the husks to keep them back. “Oh my God…heads up; you’ve got four scions heading towards you! Be careful!”Miranda cried, deathly worried for her wife who was currently busy hitting a group of husks with a reave field. “Oh Christ, not fucking now!”Thomas yelled in frustration and despair as he threw a group of husks back into their companions behind them. Suddenly, a few husks dropped down from the ceiling above the team, and one of them jumped onto Megan, knocking the unaware Vanguard to the ground.

The redhead let out a cry of distress, wildly punching the husk to keep it from biting her as her team fought off the other husks, unaware of her predicament. “Oh God! Megan!”Miranda screamed in pure terror, shooting forward in her chair back in the CIC on the Normandy as she saw Megan’s visor cam displaying the husk pinning Megan down. The brunette then felt a warm stream run down her legs, and peered down to see that her water had broken. No! Not now! Not when Cassie needs me the most! Miranda screamed internally as Kelly Chambers, who was seated right next to her and looked at her concernedly. “LC Lawson, are you alright?”The psychologist asked as Miranda just nodded and attempted to wave her away. “Wait…oh God, your water broke! Drs. Chakwas and Michel report to the medbay stat! LC Lawson is in labor! Nolan, I need help moving her!”Kelly yelled loud enough for Miranda’s microphone on her headset to pick up and transmit.

“What?! Now?!”Megan yelled, kneeing the husk, earning a temporary reprieve as she called upon her biotics and flung the husk into a wall headfirst, pulping its head and killing it instantly. “Never mind, I’m fine! Just come back safely to me!”Miranda pleaded as Kelly and Crewwoman Zoe Nolan assisted her down to the medbay. “Got it-finally! Grab as much ammo as you can, we’re moving out now!”Megan yelled as she spotted Grunt and Legion, both bearing half a dozen crates of heatsinks each. The squad complied with relief, stuffing the ammo pockets on their armor to bursting with heatsinks and Grunt and Legion poured gunfire upon the husks. “Okay, everyone set?”Megan asked, getting affirmative responses from everyone before yelling “Move out!”

“Scions! Be careful!”Samara warned as she tossed a reave field at the lead scion as Megan did likewise before Nyla killed it with a massive biotic explosion thanks to her warp bolt. “Impressive Nyla! Your biotics are very strong now.”The asari Justicar commented on her niece’s display of biotic prowess as Thomas and Grunt were at the front of the squad, mowing down the sea of husks with their rifle and machinegun respectively. Legion deployed its combat drone alongside Erin and Jentha to distract and fire rockets at the scions and keep them distracted as the team shot their way through husks to get to the Reaper device. All throughout that time, Megan was worried sick about Miranda, and thus, she wasn’t paying attention and two husks managed to pounce on her and one clawed her, leaving a set f deep gashes on her face similar to Jentha before she threw it into a few other husks and Jack took care of the other one with a shotgun blast.

“Careful Shepard! I know you’re worried about Lawson, but we gotta take care of these bastards first!”Thomas yelled, warping a scion before Legion killed said scion with a shot from its X98 Widow sniper rifle. “Yeah I got it!”Megan hissed back as the medigel sanitized the wound and closed it up as they finally killed off the last husks and scion and they finally arrived in the room with the Reaper object. Megan’s mind was immediately filled with whispers of the Reapers calling for her to join them in their ascension and gradually increased in volume until it was so loud she groaned in pain and doubled over, clutching at her ears. This did not escape the attention of the squad, and they approached her with concern. “Hey Shepard, you gonna be ok?”Jack asked, laying a hand on the Captain’s shoulder as Megan shook her head in an attempt to clear her mind.

“I’ll be fine…just blow it up.”Megan grunted, gesturing at the bombs that had already been set on the structure of the device as Thomas and Erin went over to investigate the bombs. “They haven’t been armed…ah found the detonator. Armed and ready to go boom on your command Captain.”Thomas reported. “Bomb is armed and primed for explosion Shepard. Waiting on your command.”Erin said as she armed the bomb. “Great…argh!”Megan cried in pain, falling to the dirt as the Reaper device forced its way into her mind. Welcome back sister. You will help us to cleanse this cycle and restore order to it when we come. You are the perfect tool to help us complete the harvest of this cycle. “Alert! Shepard-Captain is indoctrinated and incapacitated!”Legion warned.

“Let’s get the hell outta here and blow this fucker up! Move!”Thomas roared as everyone sprinted back to the shuttles, Grunt carrying the now unconscious Megan on his back like a sack of potatoes. Back on the Normandy, Miranda was lying on one of the medbay’s beds, fully prepped for birth as she felt the same thing Megan had felt, and heard the same collection of Reaper voices in her head saying the same thing as they did to Megan and she groaned in pain as Chakwas set up the privacy curtains around her bed. “Miranda, are you okay?”Chakwas asked with concern when she saw the brunette clutching her forehead in pain. “I’m fine…ohh…”Miranda moaned in discomfort as she got ready to deliver her twins. “Do you want a painkiller Miss Lawson?”Chloe asked as she readied the sterile incubators. “No, I’ll be fine.”

“Erin…blow the thing up.”Megan groaned before she slipped back into unconsciousness when they reached the shuttle and she was loaded aboard as Erin pushed the plunger on her detonator before yelling at Thomas to do the same as Verlus, Garrus, Samara and Jack held off the few remaining husks as the facility shook with the explosions before it stopped shaking. As soon as that happened, Megan regained consciousness, slowly blinking as everyone boarded the shuttle and milled around her while the shuttle took off and headed back to the Normandy. “Hey skipper, you alright?”Ashley asked, concerned for her ex-girlfriend as Megan nodded. “Yeah…head hurts badly though. I assume you’ve blown the device up?” “Yes. The device is now destroyed and buried under tons of earth and rubble.”Erin assured her as she sighed.

“Thank God…how is Miranda?”Megan asked, her panic rising as Legion contacted Joker, who patched them through to the medbay where Chakwas answered. “Doctor Chakwas, how is Miranda doing?”The redhead asked the chief medical officer. “Miranda’s fine…she’s halfway ready for the birth, and she should birth within the next three hours. She’s relatively comfortable and she refused painkillers.”Chakwas replied as Megan smiled warmly. “Well…giving birth can’t hurt that much, right?”Jack commented from her seat as Samara turned to her and glared. “Giving birth is akin to being split apart in half by a thresher maw. And I experienced it thrice.”Samara said, her voice just two levels higher than her normal, cool octave. “Uh…well, I’m never giving birth in this case.”Jack mumbled abashedly as some of the team snickered.

Every second felt like an hour to Megan as they headed back to the Normandy, and as soon as they docked, Megan ran up to the elevator, leaving behind her squadmates who were busy disembarking from the shuttle as she rushed up to the medbay. The minute the Captain reached deck 3, she burst out of the lift, brushing past her crew who were slightly taken aback by how much of a rush she seemed to be in. Finally, she burst into the medbay, her green eyes frantic with worry! “Miri! Are you in pain? How are the babies doing?”The redhead exclaimed in a rush as Miranda gasped at the state of her lover. Besides the deep gashes on the left side of Megan’s face that were now shiny with the dried medigel and her dried blood, and some blood was still seeping out of her still-open wounds. In addition to that, Megan’s face and armor was caked with dirt and dust, along with some husk bits of gore from fighting in the mines.

“Are you alright Megan? You look like hell!”Miranda gasped as Megan finally took a good look at herself and sighed. “I’m fine Miri-” “No you’re not! Go get showered, get out of that armor, and get your wound treated before you even think about sitting down next to me!”The brunette ordered harshly as she groaned in discomfort as her body prepared for the birth. Megan opened her mouth to protest, but when she saw the glare that Miranda was giving her; she immediately shut up and obediently headed back to her cabin and put her armor back into its drawer and took a fast shower before she rushed down to the medbay to see how her wife was doing. Miranda could somehow look intensely pissed and threatening even while she lay on a bed, covered in a blanket and her legs spread apart waiting to give birth.

“Your hair’s not even dry-aahhh!”Miranda cried in pain as she felt a very strong contraction as Megan quickly sat down by her side and grasped her hand. “Excuse me Captain; I need to stitch up your gash.”Chloe said softly as she gently pulled Megan up and sat her on the next bed and quickly stitched up the gash. “Ow! Watch it, Chloe! It hurts!”The redhead complained as Miranda faced her. “Why don’t you try giving birth then? Let’s see which one hurts more-nngh!”The Sentinel groaned in pain as she felt a final, strong contraction. “The babies are coming out! Push Miranda, push!”Chakwas exclaimed, tearing herself away from the screen where she could see the progress of the babies as Miranda’s face contorted in pain and she cried out loudly. Megan grasped Miranda’s hand, and promptly winced as Miranda squeezed the Spectre’s hand with all her might, but she grit her teeth and bore with it for her wife’s sake.

Miranda let out another scream of pain as she pushed as hard as she could just as Jentha and Nyla entered the medbay. “Oh Goddess, I’m sorry! I’ll just patch Jentha up outside!”Nyla squeaked in embarrassment as she quickly grabbed a medkit and led her girlfriend outside into the mess hall. “You’re doing great Miri, push! Keep pushing!”Megan encouraged her wife as she screamed back. “What the fuck does it look like I’m doing; having a picnic?!”Miranda screamed back before she let out another cry of pain as she convulsed once on the bed, contracting her muscles the best she could. “Okay, okay, you’re doing great baby. Do you want a painkiller?” “No! I can take it-aargh!” “Breathe deeply Miranda! Breathe deeply and it’ll be easier!”Chloe cut into the couple’s conversation as she lifted the brunette’s back to a 30 degree position.

Miranda just nodded, tears in her eyes and her face soaked with sweat despite the air conditioning in the medbay as she complied and began inhaling and exhaling audibly. “Keep pushing Miranda; the first baby’s crowning!”Chakwas encouraged as she gently held the back of the baby’s head, keeping the neck straight as inch by agonizing inch, the baby boy came out of Miranda’s womb. “It’s the boy! Now for the girl!”Chloe cooed soothingly as Chakwas gently cleaned up the wailing newborn boy and bundled him up in a soft, warm blanket. “Oh God, again?”Miranda moaned in despair as Megan sighed in relief due to Miranda’s death grip on her hand loosening slightly, letting some blood flow back into her hand. “You know, using a painkiller is perfectly fine-” “I said I’M FINE WITHOUT IT, GOD BLOODY DAMMIT!”Miranda screamed in pain as the birth pain continued.

“Alright. Jeez.”Megan winced; her left ear nearly deaf from her wife’s pained screaming. Man, Miri giving birth is making her a billion times more cranky than when she’s PMS-ing. Never knew she could be this terrifying. The redhead thought inwardly, yelping in pain as Miranda resumed her death squeeze on her hand. Finally, after 15 minutes of agony, the baby girl was born and once she was cleaned up, Chakwas and Chloe handed the babies over to a sweaty, exhausted yet happy Miranda. “Oh, they’re so cute!”Chakwas gushed as the baby boy gurgled happily as both Megan and Miranda cuddled the twins. “So, what are you going to name them?”Chloe asked as the proud parents smiled at each other. “The boy’s name will be Zachary James Shepard…”Megan trailed off, smiling at her wife as Miranda continued. “…and the girl’s name will be Tabitha Rachel Shepard.”

“That’s beautiful!”Chakwas beamed as she recorded down the births and sent the birth documents for both little Zachary and Tabitha off to the Alliance database for processing. “Next time, you give birth dammit.”Miranda groused as she planted a kiss on Zachary’s forehead while cuddling him while her redheaded wife temporarily stopped her cooing and giggling with Tabitha as she turned to regard Miranda. “…Fair enough…”Megan said uncertainly, shuddering as she tried to imagine the pain that her Miri had just went through twice. “By the way, I’m calling my mom to let her know that you’ve given birth!”Megan said excitedly as she gingerly passed Tabitha to Miranda, and the brunette cuddled both twins close to herself as the redhead called her mother on her omnitool. “Oh, and call my father and let him know too!”Miranda added as Megan nodded and complied, setting up a conference call.

Both Commodore Hannah Shepard and Aaron Lawson picked up at the same time, and they were greeted by a madly smiling Megan. “Hey mom, hey dad! Miri has just given birth to our twins! I’d like the both of you to meet Zachary James Shepard and Tabitha Rachel Shepard!”The redhead grinned as she panned her omnitool to show Miranda cuddling both twins as both Aaron and Hannah cooed and grinned in delight at the sight of their beautiful new grandchildren as Miranda gleefully addressed the both of them as they asked her how she was doing. “Mum, dad, I’m going good. But these two are the real stars here!”Miranda laughed. “Oh my goodness, they’re just so adorable!”Hannah squeed in delight as Aaron’s grin grew even wider. “I’d never dreamt of this day where I’d hear my daughter calling me ‘dad’ and holding my grandchildren.”The tycoon choked on his emotions as Megan and Miranda’s eyes met and they smiled lovingly at each other.

They knew that no matter what horrors the Reapers and other powers might bring to the galaxy, they would have their bright sunshine, the two beacons of love and hope that would keep them strong throughout, and just as importantly, they had each other.

Final Notes: Whew! Finally done with this chapter! Now, we all know how much the ME3 endings sucked ass, so most of ME3 canon will be replaced by my own fanon in the upcoming chapters, but there will be a few adherences to canon, and almost all the characters from ME3 will be included. I mean, there is NO WAY I can leave out James Vega, Javik, Cortez, and the other characters who were introduced in ME3. Hell, James and Thomas would be total dudebros and drive Megan and everyone else aboard nuts! Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this chapter, and as always, drop those reviews!
