"Wow." Kasumi replied.
Thousands of Alliance frigates, fighters, dreadnoughts, and cruisers roamed over Pluto's moon, as Kodiaks from all over landed onto the planet.
Something went over the comms.
"Invictus, this is 11th fleet leader Marcus Germaine; do you copy?" Someone asked over their comms in an African accent.

Kasumi and Lia both smiled, an Alliance Kodiak moving in to pick all of them up. Inside it, however... "Hey...I think I remember one of you. Citadel and all." A limp person had said, already sitting in the Kodiak which seemed to contain enough room for the crew, along with a couple more Alliance soldiers. Sitting next to him was what seemed to be some sort of synthetic...that wasn't a Geth.
-
"Oh yeah! Good to see you again.... Normandy Captain, right? Something like that?" Ghost said happily, extending his hand for a shake
-
The robot took it instead. "Would rather not shake. Vrolik's Syndrome, could probably break my arm by doing that. EDI, introduce yourself to these nice young soldiers." Joker said, prompting the robot to stand up. It said, "Hello." "It's my personal VI assistant." Joker replied, as Kasumi started chuckling out of nowhere.
-
"WAIT!" Serendipity shoved her way up through the crowd, staring at Joker "YOU'RE THE PILOT OF THE NORMANDY? Friend to Commander Shepard?" Serendipity was, having a mental breakdown to say the least while the others tried restraining her
-
Clearly, Joker seemed a wee bit surprised to the suddenness of Serendipity. "Yeah...your Serendipity, right? Invictus crew. And...then there's Ghost, Noble, Scorch, Iseph, Talath, Glitch, Gumball..." He listed off the Invictus crew before looking to Lilith and Maya. "...And who are you two?" He asks.
-
"I'm Maya. Nice to meet you. I'm new to the crew." The Siren said nicely, shaking Edi's hand "Sup Bitch?" Lillith Crossed her arms over her chest, staring at Joker "That's Lillith." Ghost chimed
-
"It is nice to meet you too, Maya." EDI responded, shaking the Siren's hand. "Oh god...Jack 2.0 is here." Joker said, Kasumi bursting into laughter. "That's what I said!" the thief replied. Joker looked back to Serendipity. "So...you a fan or something of the Normandy?"
-
"YES! I've been a fan since the original, and I've always wanted to be part of the Alliance. Join the crew one day. Unfortunately, I went the crime route."
-
"Huh...I've known that we were technically criminals after Shepard had the bright idea of blowing the Alpha Relay to smithereens. Probably allowed the Lennies to obliterate the Reapers and come here. You want an autograph? I mean...Kaidan, Ash...they were part of the original Normandy." Joker responded, a smile forming on his face.
-
"Yeah, but you're the pilot!!! Led Commander Shepard ac -" Scorch put his hand over Serendipity's mouth, silencing her "Sorry about that." Noble said with a small sigh
-
"Hey, it's alright brother; not like she's one of those creeper fans who watch my every move. Also...let's be honest, it's a bit nice to get noticed every once in a lifetime." Joker responds, relaxing on his chair. "I believe Admiral Anderson is currently recording his message to be sent to the Dojo." EDI had told the people.

Edited by Royal Blade: 5/23/2017 12:37:04 AM"The more people that show up, the better it'll be for everybody." Ghost said, looking around
-
"Actually, Anderson's gonna tell them to head directly for the colonies. You're basically gonna go to Arcturus Station; they assigned me to get to Eden Prime and get Shepard." He says. "Although I know there are two Shepards already here..." "Jeff, should we perhaps support the Militia?" EDI asked out of the blue. "I don't know; I mean, last time I checked, I don't think they've seen Jack since they first came to Arcturus Station a few months back." Kasumi piped up.
-
"Jack's currently involved in a siege on Frontier Space. But we could ask Marker, his second in command. Maybe Marker could get a message to Summers and so on." Noble said
-
"Maybe. But who knows; next thing you know, a Reaper might just barrel through everyone, wiping our entire species extinct singlehandedly." Joker joked, before the Kodiak stopped, and landed. "We're at Cressidium Tower, sir. Anderson is on the top floor." The pilot replied, everyone stumbling out of the Kodiak. "D...dinosaur!" A child replied, slowly walking up and hugging Serendipity's legs. "Maya!" Val had yelled out, her and Cryark rushing toward the child. "Well...this is awkward." Lia told Serendipity, Kasumi recording the entire thing from behind her.
-
"Hey, Cyrak." Serendipity said, stopping as she stared at the male Turian "Quite the day, huh?" She asked sheepishly, looking away
-
He chuckled, sounding a bit nervous. "Yeah...sounds like times are changing." He looks to Serendipity, sighs a bit and asks, "When this is all over...and we have all the money in the world...do you want to..." He couldn't finish the sentence, but it was pretty clear what he was asking.
-
"I'd... I think I'd like that, yeah." She said, doing the equivalent of what might be blushing
-
"Yeah..." he replies, as Vanguard Shep ended up bursting out laughing nearby. "Ah, two turian lovebirds....I knew this would happen!" Vanguard Shep replied, drinking what seemed to be the equivalent of beer.
-
"Shut up!" Serendipity shyly hid behind some of the other Invictus
-
"Kayla..." Cryark said, before Vanguard Shep (now 'Kayla' Shepard) proceeded to grab Cryark by the armor(?) "Say my name again in public...come on, I dare ya!" She threatens...only for Cryark to burst out laughing. "You damn well know you won't do that. You'd only do that with your Miranda..." Cryark replied, before Kayla let go of the turian. "That's true I guess. You two dovey-doves carry on with your love." She says, continuing to drown herself in beer. "Dinosaur!" The child from before said, hugging Serendipity's legs.
-
Serendipity gingerly patted the little girl's head as Noble perked up. "Miranda? Speaking of which, where is she?" He sounded nervous for a moment
-
The little girl smiled and laughed as Val ran up to the child. "Sorry about that, Serey. Kinda was trying to keep Maya here from hugging anyone that dosen't look human, you know?" Kayla pointed to Miranda, who was talking to a couple Alliance officers, her back toward the rest of them. "Go get 'em cowboy." Kayla sarcastically told Noble.
-
"That's the plan!" Noble said, quickly making way for Miranda "Oh they're totally banging." Lillith watched as Noble went towards Miranda "I love how they try keeping it on the downlow." Ghost laughed lightly, shaking his head
-
"Even sneaked in a few photos from their first date. Was planning on sending it to Jack, but..." Kasumi had piped up, her Omni-tool brightly glowing. Miranda turned around to Noble. "Noble...seems you've gotten out of everything alive." She says, tears slowly glistening in her eyes.
