Mass Effect: The Requiem Saga: Genesis.
Volume 1.
Chapter 3.
I finished dressing in my N7 Armor and took a look at myself in a mirror near one of the bunks. I might look normal to others, but when I see myself? I just look out of place. I still don’t understand why Shepard looks exactly like an in-shape version of me, but, it helps. I don’t know how I’d react if I saw Default Shepard in the mirror.
“You look like a carnie.”I grumbled, finishing strapping the weapons to myself. It came to me surprisingly well, having never really shot a gun outside of a range when I was younger. And… well, I shot one before. Ugh.????: Hey, has Keylok reported in yet?“Shit.”I crouched down, hiding behind the bed for a moment as I heard two soldiers speaking probably a couple feet from the room I was in. I move out of my cover on the bed and hide next to the door, listening in.Soldier: Check the room here, I’ll check the one over there.My eyes widen slightly as my mind races through options here. It’s most likely that he’s coming over to check this room. I could jump out and shoot them but judging how I’ve only had two experiences with a gun in my life and I’m facing two trained soldiers, I think I might be at disadvantage. Just maybe.Then my eyes switched over to Liz’s body. It’s close. And… he wouldn’t expect it. I clenched my eyes for a moment and whispered under my breath.“Oh God. I’m sorry, Liz. I’m so sorry.”The Batarian Soldier walked closer and closer to the door, his gun at the ready. He heard a rustling in the room.Soldier: Hm?The Batarian Soldier took cover and counted to himself.Soldier: One… Two… Thr-As he bursted out of the cover, he is met with something large and heavy being thrown at him.Soldier: Fuck!The Soldier threw the heavy thing to the floor, looking at it to see a mangled woman’s corpse.Soldier: Wh-And that was the last thing he ever thought. He was cut off because of a bullet to the head.“Ah!”Batarian: Huh? What’s going– ARRGH!The Batarian walked out of the room he was checking and immediately I shot him in the stomach.Batarian: Goddammit… Gah!I leveled the pistol and took another shot, this time striking him in the chest and throwing him to the floor.“Holy shit.”That came unnaturally quickly to me. I knew exactly how to shoot. Maybe Shepard’s… muscle memory or some shit is helping me out. Hopefully.I kept the pistol down and rushed past the Batarian corpses, seeing the elevator is not being guarded.“Fucking thank you…”I let my guard down slightly as I move quickly to the door-????: YARGH!I barely knew what was going on, but I was being tackled from the side into the wall. Obviously a Batarian.“Gah!”He kicked the back of my knee, causing me to slide down onto one knee. He began to knee my shoulder and side, with the aim of just causing me pain.Batarian: Human… piece of… shit!And then he made a mistake, he threw a wide swinging left hook. Summoning what I remember from my self-defense classes as a kid. I grabbed his wrist and pulled it sharply so his face was closer to me, uppercutting him with my elbow.Batarian: Urgh…I rammed my shoulder into his knees, tripping him to the floor. And then I threw all my weight into a forearm attack across his face, slamming his head into the floor.Batarian: Guhgh…Then I threw a punch, all of my strikes and blows hitting their mark without any resistance. After a while, I realized I was hitting a dead body.“I…”I can’t think about it now. I killed a man with my hands. That’s all that happened. I need to keep going. I need to.I got to my feet and pressed the elevator button a little harder than I needed to and the door opened. But then I stopped.“They’ll expect me to come through the elevator… it’s not exactly subtle.”I searched the area for another way up and found a fire exit that had already been used. Probably by a soldier. No wonder the fire alarm is going off. I guess there’s no harm in using it… but I do have the elevator open.“Hm…”~X~Bartok the Batarian Pirate has nearly every Systems Alliance officer kneeling in front of him, their hands and feet tied behind their back. His men have their guns trained on them.Bartok: Dogs.Bartok turns from them to see Captain Daniel Hackett walking towards him.Daniel Hackett: Everything is in order, Sir. I am to assume Elanos Haliat is pleased with yours and my work.Bartok grimaced.Bartok: I assume so. My men have been telling me we have been getting positive feedback.Daniel Hackett: Good.One of the men there snarls.Junior: I’ll… I’ll kill you… we’ll take you down for this.Daniel Hackett doesn’t respond, he walks away. Bartok looks at his men.Bartok: Get the cameras rolling.His soldier nods as he looks at two of the other men recording the scene, which begin.Bartok turns to the cameras.Bartok: This is Bartok Ghornah, you may have heard of me. I’m the most powerful warlord the Verge has ever had the pleasure of harboring. I have reduced your military to their knees, I have struck fear into your people, and I now claim Elysium as my own. Any who dare defy my rule my military action shall end up like this man.Junior is pushed forward and is immediately shot in the head.Bartok: And these men too.Bartok shoots and kills several other men, which includes Mark. He shoots every single soldier in various parts of their body.Bartok: You have heard my claim. And you will-Soldier: The elevator! It’s… huh?Bartok: What is going on?Soldier: It’s… oh shit, it’s Keylok. But he’s dead.Bartok: Dead?!Soldier: He… oh. Oh God. Everyone get back! Get-BOOMFFH!Bartok: Agh!~X~I watched from the fire exit as the remote detonated explosive goes off, the elevator going down and killing five or six men in the process.Bartok: What in hell’s name is going on?Then I bursted out from the fire exit with my M-8 Avenger Assault Rifle in hand, firing away at the men in front of me.Bartok: Human! Kill him! Kill!I slid into cover as shots fire all around. I clenched my teeth as I feel adrenaline rush through my system.“Hyagh!”I leapt out of cover into a roll, exposing myself as I take my shots and waste nearly every enemy soldier in the room. I don’t know if I was just that determined, or if I was lucky, or if it was the element of surprise, but after a while?Bartok: Shit. Retreat outside for now, men! Retreat!They started to retreat. It was unbelievable. They just left. I barely believed it as they were going.“Hhh…”I looked to see a Batarian gasping for breath as his omni-camera continued to roll. I moved over and grabbed the camera, pointed it to my face, and took a deep breath.What was I supposed to do? To say? Uh…Well… I guess I’ll tell them the truth.“This is Lieutenant Sam Shepard of The Systems Alliance… signing off.”And then I pressed a button and closed the camera as the Batarian died.But it was silent after that, very silent.To Be Continued…While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
