Chapter 116: My Ship, My Crew, My Mission

=== Summary ===
We flash between May 21st, 2188, where Garrus is struggling to hold his own in hand to hand combat against a turian opponent (later revealed to be the Marquis) and the hunt leading up to the fight, starting from the Normandy leaving the Citadel.
Garrus gives a speech to his crew, unaware that Shepard is listening to him. Garrus suddenly realizes why Shepard insisted she step back, and Shepard cries- mostly because of how proud she is of him.
Once underway, Garrus gives Kaidan, Wynn, Vega, and Coats the briefing on their real mission. Their first stop is Omega, where he meets with Aria regarding the Marquis’ whereabouts (what he is doing is up in the air- the contact is a Madame, so he could be indulging himself, picking up “product” or a combination thereof. Aria and Garrus briefly discuss Aria’s motivation for her assistance.
Two weeks into their voyage, Garrus tells the general crew that they have an additional mission to the official one (we are hunting a criminal kingpin) but tells them that they are not to tell anyone.
On Omega, Aria’s contact points the team into Omega’s Kima District. Garrus discovers a mark on a locked door in his old stomping grounds: A set of burnt orange stylised wings with a black flower on top. Taking the hint, Garrus leads his squad up through the tunnels towards his team’s old headquarters, where he stumbles into a trap. The Marquis has been waiting for him, separates Garrus from the rest of his squad, and the two of them fight hand to hand. Unfortunately, the Marquis gains the upper hand, and slices Garrus’ neck.
