Thread: A New Begining - Liara x Shepard - (Happy x JShepard)

For one brief moment the galaxy was at a complete stand still as a light brighter than any other source washed over the universe and eliminated the Reaper threat. One by one the Reapers fell, their forms lifeless and decrepit, they had been defeated, and freedom was assured. The citadel returned to its dormant state, the light it had produced quickly disappearing from sight. The entire galaxy broke into celebration, their weapons thrown to the ground every species cheered and praised their deities for sparing them. Shepard had lead the galaxy to a new era of peace, they were now free to live out the rest of their days in peace. No one would remember the sacrifices they had to make, no one would remember the great man who had made it all possible, all they would remember was their triumph. Everyone is ready to go Doctor TSoni, theyre waiting by the shuttle Joker announced over the com system, causing Liara to look up from her data pad. Thank you Joker, take us in as close as you can Liara replied, picking up her pistol and oxygen mask she moved to the elevator that would take her to the shuttle bay. We are not picking up any life signs Doctor, are you sure this is a wise decision? EDI asked, her voice echoing throughout the Normandy. We have no other choice, I am not leaving Shepard to die Liara answered, her expression determined as she made her way to the shuttle. James Vega and Garrus Vakarian were already seated in the shuttle, their attention turning to Liara as she entered. Are you two ready? Liara asked, sitting down in front of them. Ready as Ill ever be Garrus replied Lets do this James smirked just as the shuttle pulled out of the dock and began for the ruins of the Citadel. There is no guarantee well find anything at all, but keep your radio on at all times and report in regularly. Most of the space in there will be unstable so tread carefully and dont disrupt the Keepers, they will already be trying to repair most spaces. We have exactly two hours of oxygen, lets make it count Liara explained, debriefing them on the mission My best bet is that Shepard would be close to the control room, we will start there. The shuttle landed by the control room, securing itself onto the wall before opening its door to the empty vacuum of space. It wasnt long until the team found a way inside, the room was dark and almost empty. The room was vast and virtually undisturbed by the explosion, large windows spanned across most of the walls, exposing a fantastic view of Earth. Ive found something! Garrus called out, motioning them to follow him. Dios Mio, its Admiral Anderson James breathed as he lowered himself to check the mans vitals He is dead and since before the explosion. Im sorry James Liara said in a sympathetic tone, her hand resting on his shoulder. He was a hell of a man Garrus chimed in before moving to scout out the rest of the room And we have another one, I dont recognise him Moving towards him, Liara nudged the mans head with her foot so it would look upwards Its the Illusive Man, he looks almost like those awful husks What did he do to himself? A low rumble echoed through the room and the floor began to move, debris falling from the roof. What the hell was that? James called out moving towards Liara as the team looked upwards. This place is unstable, we have to be .. Before Liara could finish a loud cracking noise rang in their ears and the ceiling began to collapse. GET BACK! Garrus cried out and the three of them ran to the other side of the room just as a large pile of debris came crashing down. The pile quickly settled and Liara got up off the floor, dusting off her coat That was close Liara sighed Too close, maybe we should return No, I think I see something James interrupted before running towards the pile Ha! I dont fucking believe this! Exchanging a look Garrus and Liara ran over to Jamess position and looked down to what he was pointing at. Goddess be praised! Its Shepard! Liara gasped as James began to pull the badly injured form of Commander Shepard from the pile. Vitals are low, but the bastard is alive! Garrus laughed as he checked Shepard over with his Omni tool. Lets get him out of here, Garrus grab Anderson and lets blow this joint James ordered as he raised the Commander up into his arms.
