[b]The ship slowed, increasing the time they had to two hours[/b]
Ghost: "Alright what's the plan? Are we taking the ship first or the dreadnaught?"

"I'll give you the short version of t. Ask Kaidan for the rest. Ok...so, she WAS one of Commander Shepard's closest companions, back when the Citadel still had Asari representatives, and our worst threat were mind-jacked Geth. She sacrificed herself on Virmire to prevent some mind-jacked Turian Spectre named Saren Arterius from creating a fake Krogan army. What I wanna know...is how she's still alive after a planet-wide explosion?!" She explains, the sound of footsteps coming closer toward the trio's cover.
-
Noble: "Cloning!" [b]Noble peaked out of cover, looking towards the steps[/b]
-
It was Ash, who was simply walking toward the group, pistol in hand. She seemed to conjure a small headache, given that her other hand was on her head. "Why...won't this f******* vision go AWAY?!" She yells out in the room. The Phantom and Nemesis, strangely, were nowhere in site. [spoiler]-Take advantage of the vision and try to knock Ashley unconcious. -Take this opportunity to kill her.[/spoiler]
-
Noble: "Let's take her down." [b]Noble leaped out of cover and lunged toward Ash[/b]
-
The two of them tumble to the ground, the Phantom and Nemesis uncloaking behind the other two, guns pointed straight toward their heads (or in the case of the Phantom, a sword over the turian's neck.
-
Serendipity: "Shit." [b]Nobel brought Ash down her knees and placed the barrel of a hand gun against her temple, looking to the phantom[/b] Noble: "Put it down."
-
"You first." She says.
-
Noble: "You want to watch your leader die or something?" [b]He adjusted his hand for a moment as Serendipity prepared for what might happen [/b]
-
"Give...me...the gun." Noble had heard Ashley slur out. Her original white eyes were more brownish. Maybe she could be more...trustworthy. Or not. "You know what happens to your friends if you kill our leader, right?" The Phantom asked. [spoiler]-Trust Ashley and give her your gun (secretly) -Don't take that chance[/spoiler]
-
[b]He slowly handed it to her, making sure it seemed as though she was going to get the best of him. At the same time, his other hand reached for a second handgun, and this hand was hidden behind her back [/b]
-
She took the handgun slowly. "Now pretend that you're going to shoot me, but don't pull the trigger." She whispered, as the Phantom steadily watched Serendipity and Kasumi. "Where's the rest of them?" She asks.
-
"Shut up! I don't give a shit about that Little rat that calls her a thief," [b]He placed the handgun on the back of Ash's head, his finger on the Trigger [/b] "But I'm sure you probably care for this one right? Given you're trying to help her and all."
-
"Um...yeah. So what? Maya considers her an asset; she's expendable." The Phantpm replies, smugly. "They stuck a little chip on my right ear. Take it off, and then pull the trigger on the Nemesis." Ashley whispers, her eyes closed so the Phantom wouldn't be able to see her eyes.
-
[b]He did so, pulling the chip out at a very slow pace to insure they did not become suspicious. After it was off, he slowly aimed the handgun at the Nemesis and fired [/b]
-
"What the hell?! Ashley, Proje-" the Phantom was cut off by two shots of the head, courtesy of Ashley, who sat there with Noble's gun in her hands. "Thanks. Owe ya something." She says, Kasumi looking in...a small bit of shock, really.
-
Noble: "Just don't go crazy or whatever." [b]He looked over at Kasumi and Serendipity, more concerned about them [/b] Noble: "You two alright? I didn't mean what I said, Kasumi."
-
"Duly noted. Unless Cerberus somehow made me a robot, I don't exactly think that I'm possessed, sir." Ashley had responded, saluting. "I'm fine. A few scratches at least, but alright. Where's the rest of them?" Kashmir asked, brushing herself out.
-
[quote]Kashmir[/quote] Noble: "Don't call me sir. Noble will do finely. The Turian over there is Serendipity. The others must be at the bridge, hopefully."
-
"Yes, Noble." She replies, as Kasumi uses her Omni-tool to lead them to...well, the bridge.
-
[b]Upon arrival, they see Scorch sitting in a chair with his feet kicked up onto a console. Talath is leaning against a wall, and Ghost is watching over the blonde woman he had knocked unconscious [/b] Scorch: "Bout time." Noble: "No thanks to you bums."
-
"Well...it certantlu feels like old times, isn't it?" Ash asked, an eyebrow raised to the group. "You know, it could really be worse. The amount of elcor I've seen that could somehow sing worse than vorcha still scares me...so about those missiles..." Kasumi had said, seeing what she could do.
-
Scorch: "Gonna use em to take down the dreadnought sweetheart. Don't get any ideas."
-
Edited by A Stormy Dio: 3/18/2017 3:14:37 AM"Well, this 'sweetheart' happens to already have a boyfriend, thank you very much. One of the missiles is jammed, so it'll be able to redirect at least one missile to the dreadnought." Kasumi had explained, hacking away at the console. Although, having the Batarians as potential allies.... [spoiler]-Allow Kasumi to redirect the missiles toward the Batarian Dreadnought, destroying it. (+30 Sword, +30 Shield, +40 Hammer, +25 Alliance Loyalty) -Steal the console from Kasumi and redirect the missiles to Scott, allowing control of the Batarian dreadnought. (+100 Hammer, +50 Hegemony Loyalty)[/spoiler]
-
Ghost: "Let's all slow down for a second. There's no reason to attack." Scorch: "Huh?" [b]Ghost pulled Kasumi away, and stood In front of the console, preventing access [/b] Ghost: "Do you guys not see how Cerberus betrayed the Batarians? This could be our chance to turn the tides! Get an ally on the inside." Noble: "But how can we trust them? Cerberus will surely Try to convince The Batarians it was us..." Serendipity: "Evidence. We use evidence. How can one crew eliminate a [i]whole[/i] ship." Ghost: "Than we'll hold it to a vote. All those in favor of saving the Batarians?" [b]Serendipity, Ghost and Talath raised their hands. [/b] Ghost: "Those against?" [b]Scorch and Noble raised their hands and Ghost looked to Kasumi and Ash, still watching the console to make sure no one tried anything [/b]

"So...you're willing to sacrifice human lives...for people who killed our ancestors during the Skyllian Blitz? I oppose. Even if Cerberus took them down, they need to get sent back down to hell." Ashley had said, leaving Kashmir to think about it. "So...an entire Alliance city...or the Batarians. That's a bit...hard, for once in my life." She explains.
