"One moment." Noble said, kissing the top of her forehead and opening up the door
"Cavalry's here." Ghost said with a light chuckle
-----------
"Oh...." Serendipity looked up at Cyrak, then looked away quickly
"This.... This is.... Sudden..."

Well... There was Merrick and Silsia, kissing again... Then there was Val and Riley, who didn't even seem to realize the door was open. And finally, there was Kaidan and Ashley, who had just realized Noble had opened the door. "Oh! Hey..." Ashley had said awkwardly. "So...couple hours till we have to leave, huh?" She didn't notice Kasumi or Miranda behind him. ---------------- This hug went on for longer than expected..

Edited by Royal Blade: 6/10/2017 2:41:08 AM"Yes There is. You guys wanna play some Uno? Mafia?" Noble asked, taking a step to the side to allow the others inside -------- "Uh...." You okay Cyrak? "
-
"Yeah...just...feeling a bit nervous about leading a massive army for the first time. You know?" Ashley asked Noble. ----------------------- "Yeah...just needed to get that out of my system. I mean, you look cute, and pretty...and your nice to me." He replies.
-
"We're here for you. All of us. Even those who aren't." Noble said, giving Ashley a warm smile ------ "But... Does... Does that warrant love?" Serendipity asked, looking down at the ground nervously
-
"...R-Right..." she replies, looking up to Noble with more...renewed eyes. She looked inside to see who was there, and saw Miranda, waving at her. ----------------- "I...I don't know..." he says. "I...I...
-
"Let's do this." Noble extended am arm towards her, holding his fist as if for a fist bump. ------- "I... I think..." Serendipity rose up to her feet and kissed his cheek
-
Ashley smiled, fist bumping Noble back. "URA!" She yells out. --------------- Cryark' face became a new shade of pink, as he fainted in front of Serendipity. "Don't worry; he should be fine before we make it to the battle and all." Kasumi had said from behind the female turian. [spoiler]I'm guessing timeskip? Also, sorry for the long time we've been doing this one post.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Hey, I don't mind! Gotta set up the relations, plot, gotta set it all up [/spoiler]

[spoiler]Alright. Now...let's get this battle on.[/spoiler] [i]"Chapter 3: Down the Rabbit Hole"[/i] "I repeat, all fleets, prepare to engage the Cerberus fleets." Anderson had replied from his ship, as both the Invictus and Deimos flew with the thousands of Alliance dreadnoughts and cruisers hovering toward Arcturus Station. Around them was a graveyard of Alliance and Cerberus cruisers and dreadnoughts, destroyed, as lifeless bodies on either side. Soon enough, the station was in view. Dreadnoughts were still firing at one another, the station itself on fire, exploding in multiple parts. Near the back of all the ships, a lone dreadnought laid on fire, somehow not broken in half. "Engage, engage!" Anderson had yelled out, all the soldiers engaging. Considering that it was needed for the mission, Ashley, Kayla, Riley, Val, Miranda, Cryark and Kaidan all were on the Invictus, while Merrick, Silsia, Lia, Kasumi, Peacekeeper, and Major Coats were on the other one. "Alright, we've got ourselves a choice; we could join Coats and help retake Arcturus Station or jump on Hackett's ship and get the Admiral out of there." Ashley had stated. [spoiler]-Rescue Admiral Hackett -Retake Arcturus Station[/spoiler]
-
"Let's get Hackett out of there. I'm sure Coats can handle The station." Ghost said from across the Galactic map. Suddenly, Iseph's robotic voice resonated through the ship, causing Ghost to look at the Map intently "Militia forces inbound" The robotic voice said, as the 6th and 7th fleets of the Militia, numbering at 424 ships, exited hyperspace behind the alliance forces. "This is Admiral Jennifer Fletcher, head of the 6th Fleet of the Militia forces. Here to help." "Admiral Carlos Cordova, Seventh fleet. Here to help as well." The mass Broadcat was sent to all alliance ships and the station itself, as the Invictus cruised through the large battle towards Hackett
-
"Thank goodness for you guys!" Anderson had said to the Militia reinforcements, before speaking to the general armies on his side. "All forces; take down those Cerberus forces!" The Invictus would've sped through the wreckage, as thousands of Kodiaks and Breacher Pods flew across their space, as multiple Kodiaks joined the Invictus, along with the Deimos. "Oi, mate! We're gonna join you guys on this one! Anderson's getting Coats and the bulk of the N7's, civilian fighters, and Alliance forces to retake the station; we're gonna join these guys in getting the Admiral out of there." Merrick replied from his comm. [spoiler]-Breach the hangar -Breach the cargo bay[/spoiler]
-
"Gotcha, go in through the hangar Bay. We'll shoot through the Cargo bay." "Militia forces following behind." A new voice said over the comms of the Invictus and Deimos ships, with a few Militia dropships falling in line behind the Kodiaks "Alright, all Alliance Kodiaks currently behind us get to the hangar Bay. Militia, on us towards cargo." Ghost said with a air of confidence in his voice The Invictus guns opened fire at the hull of the ship, where cargo would be, hoping to punch a hole open Meanwhile, the Militia forces opened fire on the Cerberus ships that were in space, getting in line besides the Alliance ships
-
"Got it, mate. Alliance soldiers, on me!" Merrick yelled out, as the Kodiaks diverged through the ship to the hangar bay, leaving the Invictus with the cargo bay. The doors breached, allowing them to enter. "What's your orders, sir?" Ashley had asked, saluting to Noble.
-
"Kill anyone that looks like they're Cerberus!" Noble said as the Invictus flew through the opening that was made and landed in the center of the cargo bay. The cargo ramp of the Invictus opened, and the hacked Geth troops of Glitch exited the ship, and going into the cargo bay of the battleship Militia dropships landed in a circle around the Invictus, with Rifleman, and pilots exiting the ship

Edited by A Stormy Dio: 6/11/2017 3:55:28 AMMultiple Cerberus soldiers were caught off-guard, leading them to be ejected out of orbit. As well, an Atlas was there, focusing on the Invictus. "This was not what I signed up for!" Riley had yelled, jumping down, followed by Val and Kayla. This left Ashley and Kaidan firing their guns, and Miranda to wait until Noble was ready. "Any idea on how to defeat the Atlas?" She asked, prepping to run out onto the battlefield.
-
Edited by Royal Blade: 6/11/2017 4:01:25 AMThe Militia Riflemen and pilots kept themselves close to the ground using their grappling hooks, and the geth had their magnetic legs. Though, considering the zero gravity of the bay, multiple boxes would presumably be floating through the space around them. Noble, Ghost, Serendipity, Lillith and Maya ran down the ramp, with Maya and Lillith using their "Biotics" to keep everyone who didn't have magnetic boots down on the ground with "biotic" shields. This also enabled people without helmets to breathe "I got an idea, we need to shoot some of these boxes at the Atlas. Maybe get it off its feet, or crash it into the wall!" Serendipity said as she jumped upwards, grabbing onto one of the cargo boxes
-
"Good idea!" Ashley had yelled out, firing a Concussive Shot toward one of the boxes, firing it toward the Atlas. Of course, the box didn't affect the Atlas much, but enough of it? That'll do it. As for the Cerberus soldiers, they continued using the packs on their backs to stay to the ground, being the Assautl Troopers and Centurions they are.

She kicked it forward with force, and it directly hit the Atlas. Though, this left her drifting a dozen or so feet above the ground. Noble and Ghost focused their fire, along with the Pilots and Riflemen, on the enemy Cerberus assault troopers their were in the bay. The Geth troops, grabbed boxes that were floating around and hurled them at the Atlas mech
-
The Atlas still stood, albeit it seemed to be ready to be sucked up into the vacuum of space. Soon, Miranda came running out, throwing a Singularity to help out the soldiers below, as more Cerberus soldiers piled in.
-
"WATCH THE FLANKS!" Corpses of several Militia members floated through the air of the cargo bay, and Noble cut the ropes of the grappling hooks, causing the corpses to wash out into space A grenade struck the Atlas and stuck onto it's thigh, sending an explosion rippling through the mech.
-
The Atlas lost ya right leg, as it was sucked into space, along with any remaining Cerberus soldiers. Finally, Ashley, Kaidan, and Val jumped out of the ship, the door to the main part of the ship opening up, allowing everyone to enter through the space to a life supported area.
-
The Militia troops, Geth and Invictus Members moved through the doorway, and it closed behind them. As gravity returned to the hallway, a number of men fell to the grou and groaned, trying to adjust
-
This could be said of the Alliance members, minus Kayla and Riley, who were both laughing. "I seriously want to do that again!" Riley had yelled out, standing up with ease. "Hey; that's the perks of being an N7." Kayla had said, the other people getting up. Around them were the corpses of Alliance officers and Cerberus soldiers.
-
"Bloody hell..." One of the Militia Riflemen said, getting to his feet and looking down the hallway. Ghost, Noble and Serendipity started down the hallway, being followed by the Geth, other Invictus Members and a few Miltia troops, though it was clear that some of them were shaken
-
"Who...who would exactly do this?" Ashley was heard saying at the back of the group, a hint of either anger or sadness within her voice. "I swear, these Cerberus bastards are getting their parts missing when I'm done with them." Kayla had replied, furious at the entire thing. Everyone else seemed shaken enough to the point where they couldn't be able to talk. A few datapads laid nearby, containing various credits and what-not. However, not all was grim. At the end of the hallway, a woman around the age of 30 was sitting, having her back near a hackable door. She was barely breathing, an M-6 Carnifex in her hand. A dead Alliance soldier laid on op of her, blood coating her suit and face. A few extra cuts were evident on he face.
