A Ghost from Earth: ( Mass Effect x male reader)

Hell Mary

No One's POV:

The cargo bay was silent. The Normandy had only left Earth a few minutes ago and tensions were running high. They had just watched their home burn. Shepard was walking towards the armory. James was right behind her.

James: What the hell is going on, Where's Anderson? Where are we going?

Shepard doesn't say a word, she just keeps walking toward the armory.

James: Hey!

Shepard: We're leaving.

James: Leaving?

Kaidan and Ashley look up from their weapons. Yn is simply siting on the crate with Sergeant Madison's dog tag in hand. His head looking towards the cargo door.

Kaidan: What's going on?

Shepard: Anderson wants us to go to the Citadel get help for the fight.

James: Bullshit. He wouldn't order us to leave.

Shepard turns towards James.

Shepard: We don't have a choice. Without help this war's already over.

James: Forget it. Drop me off at the nearest station because I'm not--

SLAM

Yn: Enough!

The group looks toward Yn. A small dent was cracked into the box he was sitting on. Yn then raises from his seat. Looking towards James.

Yn: Don't you think anyone of us wanted to leave! I wanted to send every single hell-spawn piece of shit back to where they crawled out from! I had to hold a kid today as he bled out in my arms alight! (Runs his hands through his face and takes a breath in and out) No one on this ship is more pissed than I am alright. I don't like leaving home any more than you do but Anderson is right. If we have any chance of pulling this off, we need to get everyone in this fight. The sooner we do that we can kick those shit cans off our rock. 

James looks down at the ground, before nodding.

James: Sorry.

Yn: Don't be sorry stay fucking pissed.

Yn looked over at Shepard. She had a sympathetic look. Yn couldn't see it but Ashely had one on her face as well. The loudspeaker then came to life.

Joker: Commander?

Shepard: Joker that you?

 Joker: Alive and kicking, got an emergency transmission from Admiral Hackett for you. Oh and Yn there's a little present for you in your old footlocker. 

Yn: Uuh ok?

Yn walks over to his footlocker. He passes Kaidan and Ashley at the weapons locker. As soon as he approaches Ash looks down avoiding eye contact. Shepard walks over to the communication help. She activates it and she is greeted by Hackett. The video was distorted and was hard to read.

Hackett: Shepard... sustained heavy losses.

Shepard could tell by the tone of the Admirals voice he was in disarray. Hundreds of Alliance soldiers were killed in a matter of minutes. Lord knows what happened in the space battle.

Hackett: Forces were overwhelming.... There is no way we can defeat them conventionally.

Shepard: Anderson already ordered me to the Citadel, to talk to the Council.

Hackett: First, I need you... iance post on Mars... on we lost control of the system.

Shepard: (Salutes) Yes sir.
