Chapter 15: We are Legion.

"All right, once we're aboard, we find whatever is broad casting the Reaper signal and shut it down" Shepard strode through the halls of the Normandy with Garrus and Tali at her flank. Clipping on her helmet she stepped through the airlock, the ringing of the metal under foot made her heart skip and her breathing hitch in her throat. Shaking off the feeling of dread, she turned to Tali who stepped beside her.

"Tali you're our expert on Geth software. So you'll be handling hacking and security" Shepard spoke. Tali nodded while her faded eyes behind her helmet blinked into a smile. Shepard was glad to have Tali back, even though Liara was a good friend and had her back, Tali was with her throughout everything. Shepard would never admit it aloud but she like Tali better than Liara for it. At the time, when Liara admitted that her 'hunt' for the then Shadow Broker was more important than helping her friend (who saved her life from a Krogan battle master who was intent on taking her life whether Saren liked it or not). Shepard felt betrayed. But as usual she didn't let it show and even helped Liara in her hunt only so see first-hand how much the Asari had changed in the few years Shepard had been…dead. That was the theme of her second life it seemed, everyone had changed while she stayed the same. Garrus had run off to become Archangel. Tali had become a grown woman and was more involved with the fleet than ever before. Liara went from a shy bookworm to a cold hearted information broker. Kaidan…was still an ass, so no change there. And Joker had…well he hadn't really changed either, which was good. Shepard wondered how Ash would have changed if she was still alive, she might have been a bit colder to Shepard during her time in Cerberus but would she have stayed the same warm hearted, well-worn solider that she had picked up on Eden Prime…she doubted it.

Garrus came up behind Shepard, dressed his dark blue armour that Shepard had bought for him. His new Black widow strapped to his back while the dark window of his helmet hid his blue eyes. Shepard pouted a little at that.

"It's good to have you back Tali. Maybe with another dextro aboard, people might get better Turian food" Garrus spoke. Shepard felt her hand twitch but her face went dead-pan.

"What?" Garrus questioned when he saw Shepard's eyes.

"Subtle Garrus…Very subtle" Shepard told him as she punched his armoured shoulder. It wasn't her fault that she was guessing at what Turian food was good and what was bad. Since her serum was changing her DNA and her body's biology to match that of a Turian (while still staying human) Shepard had to start eating dextro food…and when everything tasted as sweet as a triple chocolate cake, she was having trouble. Shepard was still wondering how Mordin pulled it off, in a sense Mordin had created a Turian-Human hybrid…but what Shepard really felt like when it came down to it was a Turian in human skin.

"Don't worry Shepard, I'll help you out" Tali assured, making Shepard smile and nod in thanks. Good old Tali to the rescue.

"And you know I'll eat it as long it's sterilised" Tali told them both.

"Doctor Michelle did give me some Dextro chocolate. You're welcome to it when we get back" Garrus admitted. Shepard felt something rise from the pit of her stomach and was slowly chewing away at her temper. Her hackles rose and her teeth ground together, she focused on clamping down her hissing and anything else that Garrus might be able to hear.

"She got you Turian chocolate?" Tali's voice broke the slow rising red haze. Shepard saw Tali looking between Shepard and Garrus.

"Yeah, she said she saw it and thought of me…why?"

Garrus was truly an idiot. Shepard gripped her fists and focused her rage upon the door that was in front of her, wishing for it to open so that she could start the mission and take out her building anger upon the few Geth that weren't Legion. But how dare that French bitch give her mate, her Garrus, some chocolate. Garrus didn't even like chocolate…maybe that's why he was giving it to Tali, but then why not give it to her and say that it was a gift, a lie was better than knowing that French bitch (who was almost drooling over Kaidan while he on cloud nine back in hospital) gave him chocolate. But then again Garrus wouldn't have known about human customs, it wasn't like she was keeping him updated on the ways humans showed their love or interest in another. But still Chocolates were a huge clue in any galaxy.

"You'd better watch yourself, Shepard" Tali touched her shoulder; Shepard nodded but threw Garrus a glare. Garrus flinched as if something hard had hit him but the sound of the communicator breaking to life interrupted Shepard's train of thought away from ripping Garrus' helmet off his face and giving him a few choice words.

"Shepard, there's a problem. All tubes expect one are physically secured." EDI's voice rang through the walls of the airlock. Shepard found herself staring holes in the airlock door once again.

"I see the free one. It looks pretty torn up though" Joker responded. His voice sounded off to Shepard like there was slight shake to it but Shepard brushed it off to the fact that again they were flying through a war zone under heavy fire…again.

"It's too risky for the whole team. I'll secure the docking area. Everyone else can follow me over" the words came out of Shepard's mouth before she had even thought of them and as those very same words left her lips they left a bad taste in her mouth.

"Roger that Commander. We'll just stay here-you know-quietly" Joker told her as the docking bay door opened. Shepard strode past the other two and soon disappeared into the tube beyond.

Garrus in the meantime, as he watched Shepard walk off and the door close behind her, felt like he should have said something if at all anything to get rid of the churning feeling he had in his stomach. The look that Shepard had given him and the fact that her sub-vocals were screaming in anger over the mere mention of the Doctor giving him chocolates. Rubbing the back of his neck he gave a heavy sigh catching the attention of Tali.

"You have no idea why she's so mad, do you?" Tali offered, breaking the slow encroaching silence that threatened the two.

"I have no idea, I didn't think…their just chocolates" Garrus defended but Tali placed her visor in her palm and shook her head.

"Garrus, in human culture, they give chocolates to someone they have feelings for…one way to show that they are interested in them. I heard that's quite popular on a Valentine's Day…whatever that is" Tali told him. Garrus thought about it then it dawned on him…then he felt like a complete idiot.

"Damn…I've messed up haven't I?" Garrus asked. Tali only nodded in response and Garrus sighed again.

"Don't worry, after she kills a few Geth, you'll be in the clear" Tali told him. Garrus wasn't convinced but it was something to hope for. Silence fell over the two as they waited for Shepard to give the all clear and Garrus was itching to try out his new sniper. He suddenly felt like he was back on the SR1. Shepard had given him the HMWSR Master class Sniper Rifle, he was drooling over the craftsmanship for days but more than anything he wanted to put that rifle through its paces against the Geth. Just like old times. As he delved deep into the memories of him and Shepard on the SR1, a smile grew on his face and he started wishing for times like that. Not the part where him and Shepard weren't mates, Spirits he loved that but he wished that the missions they were doing now weren't on a knife edge. He wanted the time to chat to the crew and send more time with Shepard just like he used to back then. Where the mission could take a back seat for a few hours and they could just relax. But that seemed to be slipping from even Shepard's tight and everlasting grip.

Then the radio crackled to life again and Joker's voice sounded over the radio.

"Um guys…EDI is getting some weird readings from Shepard's suit" Joker sounded panicked. Garrus stood straight and looked out the small window the airlock door offered. As he looked down the torn up docking bay tube he saw Shepard standing stock still only a few metres away. Her frame was still as stone as the floating chunks of metal lazily passed her by.

"What's wrong with her?" asked Tali as Garrus began to growl at the fact that he couldn't go and help his mate.

"I'm reading an increased rate in heart rate and her breathing is not normal…I believe she is scared" EDI's voice sounded unnaturally worried.

"Spirits damn straight I'm scared" Shepard voice crackled over the communication system and Garrus felt his heart tighten at the tone of the voice. Strained, scared and even worse hollow.

"Shepard, Get back here and I'll go" Garrus ordered but all he got was Shepard hitched breathing as he watched her slowly shake her head.

"EDI, hack into my Omni-tool and bring up my music list" Shepard's voice spoke. Then Garrus watched as her Omni-tool sprang to life on its own and the information displayed. He couldn't make out the titles of the songs but all he knew is that she had a lot more than he did.

"There that one, play that one. If I sing I'll concentrate on something else…" Shepard told them, mainly Garrus but he knew Tali would need reassuring too. Garrus ground his talons into the metal as he started to hear the faint sound of what he thought were bells flittering through his radio. The urge to help his mate was slowly taking over his higher brain function but he had to trust her. If he ran out there and dragged her back she would fight, not to mention it was downright stupid. The tube looked like it barely held Shepard; the huge gaping holes that decorated the tube let the light of the war between the Geth and Quarians through bathing the passageway in different colours of red and blue.

When you think
Hope is lost
and giving up
is all you got,
Blue turns black,
your confidence is cracked.
There seems no turning back from here.

Shepard's voice filtered through the radio and Garrus was more than surprised. Her voice sounded strained yes but that was because she was scared and her breathing sounded like his favourite assault rifle when it threw out its bullets. But Shepard took a slow step forward and her shoulders straightened.

Sometimes there isn't an obvious explanation.
While the holiest stars can feel the strongest palpitations

That's when you can build a bridge of light,
that's what turns the wrong so right.
That's when you can't give up the fight

That's when love turns night time into day,
That's when loneliness goes away,
That's when you gotta be strong tonight,
Only love can build us a bridge of light

It was as if the song gave her the power to move because as she sang, she seemed to grow while each step she took grew in strength and power. Garrus watched in awe, her voice sounding like a bell through his radio while the music built slowly. Beats of what he thought were tribal drums from Palaven gave a slow lazy beat while an instrument he had never heard before sounded throughout the song, growing in speed at some points but then slowing down as Shepard sung. He couldn't hear the other singer that came from Shepard's Omni-tool, all he heard was Shepard's growing voice.

When your feet, are made of stone
You're convinced that you're all alone
Look at the stars, it's straight up the dark
You'll find your heart shines like the sun
Let's not let their anger get us lost
And the need to be right cause us way too high costs

That's when love can build a bridge of light.
That's what turns the wrong so right.
That's when you know it's worth the fight.

That's when love turns night time into day.
That's when loneliness goes away,
that's when you gotta be strong tonight.
'Cause only love can build us a bridge of light.

Garrus felt himself keen, this song whatever it was, Shepard was singing about herself. How she was scared about everything but she took everything in her stride. If Garrus could cry he would do but instead he watched Shepard plough through the floating metal debris towards the metal door of the Geth dreadnought. Tali's sniffing broke through Shepard's singing and Garrus reached out to place a hand on her slender shoulder.

"Is this an Earth song?" Tali asked. Garrus imagined her cheeks damp with tears as he smiled.

"I think so…I've never heard of music like this before. It's almost…primal." Garrus told Tali as he looked back towards the door. Maybe he needed to listen to Shepard's music list more often.

Deep breath, take it on the chin
But don't forget to let the love back in

That's when love can build a bridge of light.
That's what turns the wrong so right.
That's when you can't give up the fight.

That's when love turns night time into day,
that's when loneliness goes away.
That's when you gotta be strong tonight
'cause only love can build us a bridge of light.

Only love can build us a bridge of light...

Shepard reached the door of the dreadnought, pressing her palms against the cool metal she smiled and wished she could wipe her eyes. Her mother's voice sang through hers and she felt herself almost turning into her six year old self again, imagining running through the yellow fields on the farms. The huge metal chunks of the tubing felt like the grain rushing across her hands. But the coolness of the metal door brought her memory crashing back and her training took over her mind and body.

"I apologise for any bleeding ears and deafness…but I've made it to the door" Shepard reported as she started to look for the override switch.

"What…Shepard…I didn't hear you, this sound was broadcasted all over the ship and everyone has come down with a sudden case of deafness….now we're just standing round like love struck zombies" Joker's voice crackles through her radio. Shepard gulped as she felt a blush encase her cheeks but she gave a small smile.

"Then I guess I can start spreading the secret of your stash of…"

"Holy Shit! I'm healed!" Joker almost shouted and Shepard chuckled to herself. But then the sound of creaking metal surrounded her and as Shepard turned to see what it was, she saw the Normandy floating away from her with the rest of docking tube still attached.

"Great…" Shepard grumbled.

)_)

Shepard and the team were taking their time on the dreadnought and in the cockpit of the Normandy time seemed to slowly drag by. Joker watched the scene before him through the orange haze of the information screens. Ships battled like brawling lions, gunfire sang through the air and all the while the Normandy hide behind a nearby moon. EDI sat quietly, most likely keeping an eye on Shepard and the teams vitals (she did that a lot) but that was ok sometimes Joker just liked to watch the show. In the background the crew of the Normandy rushed about the CIC, passing information and preforming scans on the Geth ships, seeing if they needed to give Joker the order to move the ship out of cover and help out. But Joker didn't have to worry, everything Shepard had done with Legion before the fight against the Collectors were still intact and the shielding against Geth scans was running at 100%.

"How are they doing EDI?" Joker asked. EDI blinked her cybernetic behind her orange visor. She focused her eyes from Joker's form.

"Shepard is showing some signs of stress but that is to be expected under gun fire. Garrus has an injured shoulder and currently Shepard is yelling at him. Tali is uninjured but is currently hacking into one of the side rooms on the Dreadnought. They are closing in on the signals source." Edi explained. Joker smiled and huffed with a laugh as he rested back in his leather chair and looked out towards the floating dreadnought.

"So nothing unusual" Joker said.

"Yes Jeff, nothing unusual" EDI turned back to keep an eye on the team's status. Joker meanwhile informed Doctor Chakwas of Garrus' condition. Then Joker heard the familiar heavy, marching footsteps of a certain crew member. Kaidan walked through the door of the cockpit and looked over towards EDI's seat. Joker pretended to pay no attention but he watched out of the corner of his eye. Kaidan shuffled from foot to foot as he watched EDI sit in what was his own seat while her cybernetic fingers flew across the screens almost as fast as Joker's.

"I forgot you have another co-pilot" Kaidan mumbled. Joker merely nodded and turned back to the scene before him. But Kaidan's presence still stood behind him, Joker wasn't like Shepard. He still liked Kaidan because they were good friends but after Horizon and seeing how it affected Shepard, he was finding it hard to not be a little bitter towards him. Then, while Shepard was locked up, Kaidan wouldn't stop itching to take command of the Normandy. Annoying Joker in the process. But Joker played the nice friend and hid his bitterness behind a mask of jokes and sarcasm.

"Joker, can I ask you something?" Kaidan spoke. Joker looked over his shoulder seeing Kaidan looking at him as if he was looking for answers from the only friend he had left on the ship. Joker sighed and spun his chair round to face Kaidan.

"Shoot." Joker waved his hand as if the batter away the look on Kaidan's face. Kaidan took a deep breath before looking round the cockpit but his gaze fell upon Joker once again with a look of seriousness plastered across his mug.

"How can you trust Shepard? After Cerberus…After everything. To me she seems changed, like she's become angrier." Kaidan shuffled about on his feet while his hands were moving ten to the dozen. It was like he had gone to prime minister or president school and took a very advanced course on how to talk with your hands.

"…How should I answer that without you storming off?" Joker asked. Out of the corner of his eye he saw EDI restrain the smallest of smiles but he next broke eye contact with Kaidan who was standing dumb struck by the statement.

"I won't 'storm off' I want to know" Kaidan ground out through his teeth but Joker wasn't impressed.

"Fine you want to know, I'll tell you. Shepard hasn't changed at all, you just never saw the real Shepard. When Shepard came back, she was confused, afraid, for a time she believed she was another version of herself or a very advanced AI. Do you know what that did to her?" Joker held back his voice. He was mad but he didn't want to start shouting and alert the whole crew. But god for-bid the Geth had sensors that detected his shouting frequency. Kaidan seem to be almost shell-shocked by what Joker was telling him but Joker didn't care, Kaidan needed to get his head out of his ass.

"Yes I trusted Shepard the moment I saw her, as soon as she put her arms round me in a hug and cried that it was so good to see me alive, I trusted her. I watched as Shepard went on mission after mission to gain and build her team to face the Collectors. I watched Shepard nearly die from blood lost after saving Grunt from the grasp of the Collectors, back on the collector ship, when she over used her biotics. I watched as she came back from Horizon looking as if a part of her had been shoved up her own ass. Everything I saw only made me think that the Shepard I watch die out in space, had come back and throughout everything she hated co-operating with Cerberus. I can't tell you how many times she said she wanted to kill the Illusive man and described each way she would kill him." Joker paused to gain his breath.

"She described killing the Illusive man about 548 times while using 365 ways to kill him. Melting him into a puddle of grey goo was her favourite method" EDI interrupted. Joker felt a cold shiver run all over his body; he didn't know what was creepier, how Shepard knew so many ways to kill…or the fact that EDI had kept count.

"Anyway…What I'm trying to say is that Shepard never changed and I trust her. You never got to know the real Shepard because all you talked about was your troubles at biotic school and how your first love crushed your heart. My advice pal, get over it." Joker watched as Kaidan's eye twitched while his fist started to glow faintly.

"If she's angry then it's what you've done Kaidan or what you're doing. But one thing Kaidan…" Joker looked at the flustered Major as he still tried to process Joker's ranting.

"Try and come between Shepard and Garrus and I will take Garrus' stick out from his ass and beat you myself. Cripple or not, I will protect my friend." Joker warned and turned back to the console instruments in one fluid motion. He heard Kaidan do exactly what he said he wouldn't do. Storm off. But Joker finally felt like she had done something for Shepard and done it right. The memory of watching Shepard die before his eyes still haunted his sleep, her hands reaching for her torn air pipe while her legs flailed with fear. Then the worst part was watching her body slowly being burnt up by the atmosphere as she neared the planet. He blamed himself for nearly two years but when Cerberus brought him and showed him the revived body of Shepard in the huge water tank, slightly remembering that it was some form of vitamin bath or something, he started to believe again and started to train his body to help Shepard with the up incoming mission that was ahead.

Yeah he had done right by Shepard.

"How are they doing EDI?"

"Shepard says she wants to kiss you when she gets back. Garrus is arguing about that but says you can borrow his stick anytime. And Tali is laughing at an extreme rate." EDI told him and Joker felt his face grow hot.

"You didn't…"

"I opened up the ship communication system to the team; I thought Shepard would like to know how crew moral was being improved" EDI spoke as if she was analysing data for her human research but the smile that played across her synthetic lips told all. Joker palmed his face and let out a sigh, but he smiled as the image of the great Commander Shepard giving him a kiss. That would be a nice memory.

"Just stay focused guys" Joker told them over the radio and went back to watching the Geth and Quarian ships battle before him.

)_)

Shepard, Garrus and Tali dived through the door as another pulse threatened to wipe out the remainder of their shields. The Geth had come at them in waves and with unstoppable force. New Hunter Geth, as Tali had told her, were the worst with their trick of cloaking and then sneaking up to you as close as possible to strike the killing blow. That's how Garrus got his wounded shoulder and if it was for Shepard's eyes of all things to pick up on the spark of burning wires, the bullet would have been lodged in his brain and not his shoulder.

"Tali, please tell me we are not running through any more drive cores or anything like that" Shepard almost pleaded still trying to catch her breath as she leant against a nearby wall for support. Tali panted as she shook her head and checked over everyone's shields and stats.

"We should be fine now Shepard, the drive core is just ahead." Tali assured and Shepard slid down the wall towards the floor in glee. She felt horrible and in desperate need of a shower, her stomach felt like it was churning up last night's Turian meal she had shared with Garrus and her muscles were so sore they felt numb. Garrus appeared in front of her and even though he was wearing his damned helmet she could see the expression of concern on his face. Her eyes however drifted towards the now clamped down bullet hole that had nearly been his undoing and Shepard felt her stomach clench with a sickly feeling.

"You ok?" Garrus asked simply but Shepard could hear his vocals screaming with concern and worry. Shepard nodded as she took a slow and steady breath; she stood feeling a shake go through her legs from the sore muscles and loss of adrenaline.

"Tali, any ruptures?" Shepard asked as Garrus stuck close to her side just in case. Tali looked over her suit before shaking her head.

"None…that's a first" Tali joked making Shepard chuckle and smile.

"You've just jinxed it now." Shepard nodded for the team to move onto what looked to be a dead end at first. The high column structure seemed to only go on for a few meters before stopping. As if spreading out of the wall like a virus, ladders and platforms ran up the full length of the room. Shepard felt dizzy for a moment as her legs cried against the thought of using the ladders.

"Where to now Tali?" Shepard asked. Tali walked over to a console and punched in a few keys. Suddenly the floor sprang to life and slowly started to levitate them towards the ceiling. The elevator was just as slow as all the others but Shepard was glad she didn't have to use the ladders any time soon. Then as if out of nowhere, the coded sounds of the Geth screeched behind her and as Shepard turned she came face to touch light with two Geth units pointing rather nasty looking rocket launchers at her.

"Guys move!" Shepard shouted across to her team only to send out a push at the last minute. Garrus and Tali went flying into the opposite wall and land on one of the many platforms. Shepard turned back to the Geth and just as she was about to send her biotics at the two they sent out their rockets. The next thing Shepard knew was the sting of fire as it ripped through her shields and seeped into the gaps in her armour, somewhere Garrus called out her name but the groaning of metal rang through the room like a loud alarm. Shepard stumbled towards the edge as the lift began to tilt away from her team.

"Shepard! Give me your hand" Tali shouted while reaching out towards her. Shepard bit her lip and started to run towards them. Shepard felt like she was on the Collector base again, running towards Garrus' open arms, her legs bleeding and hurting while her breathing was ragged and short. Shepard jumped just as she started to feel the platform drop from her feet, reaching out towards her friends she managed to narrowly catch the metal platform with her arms. Garrus didn't hesitate, reaching down he pulled her up onto the platform. Shepard steadied herself before nodding towards Garrus and Tali.

"I'm alright…" She let out a breath before pressing on. Great now she had to use the ladders.

"Good. Hopefully we're done with elevators" Tali broke the silence and tension making Shepard chuckle.

"Come on…The drive core isn't far" Tali navigated the way.

"That's what you said about five minutes ago." Garrus spoke with his duel toned voice, deadpan and flat. Shepard looked at him and elbowed his side, Garrus looked at her (or at least she thought he did) but she turned away shaking her head before she started to climb up the ladder.

After a few more steps and the silence throughout the team nearly strangling her, they reached the drive core. At that moment Tali's Omni-tool started to beep with rapid succession, letting the team know they had found the source of the signal. Shepard opened the door while commanding Garrus to take out his sniper and Tali to get ready with an energy drain. The door opened and slowly the team crept inside. Inside the room was what could be described as a huge ball of energy. Wires ran from the thing like tentacles and lights blinked with various beeps and boops. Garrus scoped round the room and nodded towards Shepard that they were all clear, Shepard put away her rifle and walked up to the glowing ball. Her head pang with a slight pain and that was all she needed.

"It's defiantly Reaper tech." Shepard looked at the console. Words that she couldn't read flashed about on the screen in a waterfall motion while strange symbols seemed to appear like ghost writing and disappear just as quick. Something wasn't right, if the Reapers were helping the Geth, they wouldn't need a console to operate it they could just hack into the system.

"Ok how are we going to shut it down?" Garrus pointed out as he kept a close eye on the surrounding areas.

"Can't we just shoot it?" Shepard asked and Tali nearly froze with fear.

"Shepard, Not only would that not work…We would die" Tali told her with flying hands.

"Sorry Tali, I just don't like this, something doesn't feel right." Shepard looked back towards the glowing ball and that's when she saw it, a shadow or an outline of something that was in there almost blurred by the flickering light of the bouncing energy.

"What is that?" Shepard asked. Tali hacked into the console. Shepard kept her eyes on the machine in front of her as it slowly opened up. The many arms hid what was inside for a moment but then Shepard felt her heart leap while her face dropped to the floor.

"Shepard-Commander, help us"

"Legion!" Shepard nearly shouted as she rushed up to the machine only to be blocked by a shield.

"I regret saying I want to shoot the core…Legion how did you get like this?" Shepard pounded against the shielding. Tali's fingers were flying across her Omni-tool, trying to hack into the shield frequency but it seemed Tali's hacking luck had run out.

"We are being used as a conduit to broadcast the Reaper signal to all Geth" Legion responded. Shepard looked up towards the only Geth she had as a friend and pounded against the shielding harder. How could the other Geth use him like this? And where did it all go wrong? The Reapers were going to pay…dearly.

"So if we get you out of there, we disable the signal?" Shepard asked and Legion nodded as his facial panels flicked with earnest.

"Correct…But you cannot simply remove the restraints. We are secured via hardware blocks nearby that shackle our operating protocols." Legion warned and Shepard felt her head hurt. Tali looked round the room.

"Where are they Legion" Tali called as she ran towards one of the other platforms.

"They are on the far side of the room" Legion told her. Tali sped off towards the controls. Shepard looked at Legion, how could the Geth allow this? It was like human experimenting on the Turians back in the first contact war, using their own kind as fodder for the Reapers to use as they pleased.

"Legion, what happened? I thought you said only the Heretics followed the Reapers" Shepard wanted answers and as Legion turned his touch light to Shepard, it was like she could see how Legion was having a hard with this information himself.

"We did as Shepard-commander ordered; we started to prepare the Geth for war with the Reaper. But when Creators attacked, the Geth wished to live. The Reapers extended an offer…one that would help the Geth to live." Legion explained. Shepard ground her teeth together as a growl rang from her throat, so much so that Garrus placed a hand on her shoulder to calm her down. Shepard looked towards Garrus and nodded. She needed to focus, punching Gerrel would have to wait but first off they needed to get Legion out there and then get the hell off the Dreadnought.

Just like a walk in the park Shepard thought to herself as she took a deep breath of her filtered oxygen. Calming her heart she turned back towards Legion.

"We'll get you out of there soon Legion I promise" Shepard vowed.

"We know Shepard-Commander." Legion responded.

I absolutely love this chapter....
