Crap, I Was Rifted

When I went to sleep, I experienced death. It was disgusting to say the least. My body felt a death and sent it to my mind. I felt my strength leave my body and watched as my body withered and wa reduced to ash. Galtea explained that a User Death would change everytime. Always a different way depending on the World after the first. I had experienced what happens in my Homeworld. The body decays and reduced to ash. I have been placed in my Nether World to recover by myself for a week with accelerate time to help me cope. t was now my first day back in regular Mass Effect time frame for I can adjust.

"So.. a little fun for us now," Riku said as she ripped off my boxers. "Time to get your reward." I could feel her tail wrap around my leg. "Your always erect, always hard. Time to fix that."

"This had better not be a dream." I sat up a little and grabbed her a.s.s. It had been a long time before I did so. It felt good in my hands. "Damn you feel good." I moved my head up giving her a kiss. THat turned into us making out like teenagers.

"Boop," the intercom came on. "Commander we are reaching Vermine soon." It was Hotshot. She said that and left. She was bored having been barred from missions for awhile.

"Not a dream," Riku said as she took off her top. "You have waited.." she threw it to the side. "I have waited.." she floated up taking off her shorts. "Time to.."

"Boop," the intercom came on again. "Commander we need you down in the hanger. We received an urgent distress signal for help." This time it was Ruma. I understand she wanted to get to the Krogan's down there but still. I had my hand raised getting ready to blow up the intercom. Riku's til swatted my hand.

I grabbed Riku and flipped her onto her back. I was not worried about the mission. "Smooch," I kissed her neck and bit her. She gave a small squeal as I left a mark.

"Ah, bad wolfy," Riku said as her tail gave my b.u.t.t a smack. "Marking your property now?"

"Damn straight!" I smiled at her.

Galtea: You should go now. If not you will miss the mission.

Galtea said to both of us through the link. I didnt know she could do that. Apparently I was either forgetting a lot or something else. "Well guess we are skipping a mission for once." I looked down at Riku who frowned a little at my statement. "Seriously you want to go down there?"

"Nope, not at all. However, you lost out a good bit in my World. You still havent received any rewards from it either." Riku tail stroked my back a little. She was right but I didnt care about that. "You spent a good bit of your points creating shuttles to get the Krogan. Maybe you should go and make sure everything works out."

"Nope, they got this. I am where I want to be." I tried to kiss her again but she stopped me. "What?"

"You should go. A few more days won't hurt." Riku said sitting up and pushing me back. "She grabbed her clothes and got dressed. "It is not like you havent waited before."

"Yeah sick of waiting everytime," I said as I already was dressed once she pushed me away. Good thing about my Nether World, easy for me to move about. "Shit gets old real quick. Especially with my wolf chopping at the proverbial teeth."

"Come on the mission can help," Riku said.

"Yeah well stressing about everything will get me killed even faster." I felt the biot strands come off her and frowned. "Rather do missions than spend time togethor, fine." I shifted away to the hanger. I could see a few of the others around. "So what is so urgent?"

"We are ready to go for the most part. Well, two shuttles are." Ruma said. "An Alliance distress signal is coming from the planet below. It is the Normandy. They are having trouble keeping Geth off there trail. On the ground, they are running into some trouble."

"Why didnt you launch with the other shuttles Ruma? This is your operation after all." I asked looking over the info. A large increase in geth down below.

"I figured you would want to assist in it. You did bring it to my attention. Ruma moved around as she directed the others. With Hotshot in medical, she had more problems on her hands. It was weird as we couldn't heal her with things from the System. She had to heal normally as the wonds she received actually damaged her soul. "I want your help on this Azul. I understand you most likely rather rest instead. Considering..."

"Considering my death... To late. The damage is done." I gave her a shrug. "Time to get down there and get you these Krogan. Hopefully, we get enough of the Tech to help with the genophage research. I know you dont like the cure I made but whatever." I moved to my Arwing to use for the descent.

"That is not true!" Ruma grabbed my shoulder and turned me to face her. "Your cure is great. You even did it with out me asking for it. You even did one for the Asari. I just dont want those Krogan getting used against us as well as them giving the Krogan a bad name. At least under us, they can do some good. Or do you regret giving me control of Krogan affairs?"

"Nope, not one bit." I shook my head at her. "You know what you are doing. That I am certain of. I just have a stupid load of crap going on with my mind. Time distortion sucks and I am finding myself not caring about a lot of things all of a sudden." I couldnt remember what the word was but I know I was having trouble caring about anything.

"Well.. damn... I rather the killy killy you came back. At least then I had some fun." Ruma said. She was worried from the biotic strands I felt. "I figured you and that woman Riku would have been rutting like .. what is it monkeys?" I nodded. "You still havent? Well damn, that explains a lot. My offer still stands. I think a little hybrid of your's could grow up to be a great soldier. A fine Krogan with my gene's. involved" She gave me a toothy grin.

"Haha, alright sounds like a plan." I laughed. I knew she was serious. "I am gonna take you up on that offer when we get back. Right now, time to get you a bunch of Krogan to command. Hopefully the peole that are messing with us back off already."

"Right." Ruma reached over and tapped on my helmet. She gave me the signal to remove it. "Slurp, to let them know you belong to a Warband already." She said after l.i.c.k.i.n.g my face. "Gonna need a name for our little Warband." She grinned as she moved down the ladder.

I looked over and saw the crew smiling at us. At least morale was high now. I saw a few of the others get in the other Arwings to go. Auron was with Vergil talking about what to do with supplies. I was surprised he became a follower. He looked good younger now. I would have to find time to talk with him. Vergil looked to be doing fine the way he was giving out orders. His mother was all smiles as she moved helping as she could.

"Hey," Riku said as she floated to the side of the Arwing. "I.. wanted to talk before you go."

"No point. Just go and do what you have to do. No point in getting in an argument before a mission. Go do whatever you have to do already." I hit the ignition and waited for the engines to go green. "My fault so dont sweat it."

"That is not it. I just want to say I am going back home for a bit afterward. I need to fix a lot of things back home. So we won't see each other for a while." Riku was a little upset about having to go, but not enough for her not going. Not enough to stop her from staying and helping here. "I am going to come back and we can pick up where we left off." Her biotic strands felt hopeful as they fed into me.

"Yeah sure." I did not believe or I didn't care. She felt it in my voice. "Step back and good luck Riku." She floated away and I shot off. "Shit is defintely not how I wanted it to be."

"Well that is what you get for not being more assertive," Mia said in the back seat. "But then again, you have been turned all kinds of different directions lately. I can not get over there is a User with Time abilities allowed go places like this. Even more, Galtea does not want to tell you more about it."

"Yeah, maybe there is no happy ending for people like me. Might need to become a villain." I watched as a few other Arwing's were to the left and to our right. "Villians sure do have more fun than I have lately. Any time I ask her about, she goes to a really dark place. It has something to do with her past."

"Did you ask her to marry you?" Mia asked expexctantly. "I mean Riku, not Galtea obviously."

"Nope. I did not get the chance to. I was going to do it after.. well you know. But this all started." I said as I checked over the radar. "I do not know if she is questioning our relationship or if it is something else entirely. She bloody hell knows how I feel. I mean everyone knows how I feel with my Pather power alerting them anyway."

"That sucks!" Jaina said over comms from another Arwing. "Considering how it took you forever to commit to Polygamy that has got to suck majorly. Adon is going to laugh his a.s.s off when he gets back."

"Yup. But at least I still have the others. I just need to get that part over with when I can. Would suck if I died permanently before getting married." Then I felt Mia hit my helmet. "Oww, what was that for!"

"You are not dying brother. We will make sure of that. Sophia has taught me some magic. We will finish this mission. And when we get back, we are going to train. I dont like you down and out like this." Mia strands hit me hard. She wanted me to at least by my old rude self again. Not this whatever I was of late. "Your gonna live a long time, odds are you will have unusual relationsh.i.p.s."

"Right. You are a good sister. Since we are here, how about you tell us about you and Lightning dear sister." I teased her just a little. I really was interested in how she was coming along in the romance department.

"Umm, there is nothing to say. She is just a good friend." Mia said a little embarrassed. I could hear a little chuckling over the comms. "I just asked her to teach me how to kiss. She was happy to teach me. I hear girl's did it all the time in school. That is what Maldova and Hotshot said anyway." She was quiet for a minute as she thought it over. I am not interested in her like that. I like my woman bigger than that."

"Heh, alright. So who has the biggest rack on the ship." I felt another hit on my helmet. "Oww stop that." I thought about it for a moment. "Hey you better stay away from Sophia, those are mine. Go after Jaina."

"Aww, my Overlord you afraid I will trade you up for your adopted sister?" Sophia said from another Arwing. "I won't but you are right. Jaina has the next biggest rack after Maldova and me. Oh wait, Hotshot can give her a run for her money."

"Stop talking about my b.r.e.a.s.ts!" Jaina yelled. "Those are for me and whoever I give them to." There was a little silence. "I am not giving them to anyone... Arghh.. just do not talk about them."

"Cut the conversation we are getting ready to enter the hot zone," Maldova said next. "Besides Jaina's sweet t.i.t.s are bigger than mine Sophia. You just cant tell with the clothes she always wears."

"Buahahaha," I laughed first then the comms lit up in laughter. "Alright, Mia I am going. Take good care of yourself and my Arwing." I flip maneuvered the Arwing as the canopy slid back.

System: Acrobatics Check 22 Pass

"You got it," Mia said as she took over the controls. "Happy hunting." I was out like a missile towards a Geth fighter. I dropped a grenade on it and kept moving. My map lit up letting me know my backup had shot out as well. 'So far so good. But I can actually feel biotic strands coming from the surface. That is new as hell.'

Our descent was uneventful as the geth were focused on the sh.i.p.s as well as the increasing Arwings that were arriving. Using our thrusters and biotics we landed with no problem. Sophia came up on my left and Proto Man on my right. I pulled out my rifle as we moved out. Sophia had two submachine guns at the ready. Proto Man had a sniper rifle. He also had a heavy pistol on his hip.

"Ready to clear this place out?" I asked as I checked the map for the distress signal location. It was really weird and out of place considering.

"Yeah, time for me to get some action." Proto Man said moving up. "The faster we finish, the faster I get back to my bed."

"Oh yeah, that is what you are looking forward to," Sophia said as she moved up. "When are you getting married to Samus? You two spend so much time togethor."

"Heh, about as soon as you marry the boss there." Proto Man set his gun over a rock formation. He checked the sights and gave us the all-clear with a wave. We shot forward to the next set of rocks.

"So you are married then. We are soul bonded and he is my Overlord. As well as my Master. That is the kind of marriage I want." Sophia said once we stopped. "So what is stopping you now?" I could see her arched brow under her helmet.

"Oh, that does not count." Proto Man protested. He then looked at me. "You have to do it legally."

"Pft, I will do it as she wants. I won't force her to follow my tradition. That shit does not go well." I checked for the signal again and noticed something was off about the signal again. Then I remembered there was an STG team down here as well originally. Using the few codes I knew, I sent a message over warning them that the geth forces had increased. Rather they get it or not, was not my problem. I looked to Sophia. "Want to get married all traditional style and what not?"

"Hell no! But maybe you can do that for.. actually only Agria, Tietra, and Mileuda fit under those traditions." Sophia then was about to move up but stopped as she checked her Omni-tool. "Then again, I do want you to kill another Overlord and give me its heart. It will make me stronger and some other things can happen for us."

"Sounds fun. Set it up." I moved up and signal for them to follow after. We made it to a T junction full of Geth Arm.a.t.u.r.es. "Ok, it is about to get intense soon. Everyone ready?" They both nodded I could feel Proto Man's adrenaline spike. Sophia was aroused. I gave her a look she nodded and shrugged. "Alright then."

"Beep, beep," my Omni-tool went off. I checked to see it was a message from Riku. Opening it quickly I saw the contents and glossed over it quickly.

"Everything ok?" Sophia asked. I sent it over to her and focused on a quick plan before we moved. I felt Sophia's arousal pick up as well as her power. "Oh, this will be fun."

"You have some weird women in your life boss." Proto Man said to me lowly. "I mean Samus is weird but .. your women are just oddballs. That is being nice. Actually everyone you have in our company are weirdo's. Do you know Vergil was married before? To some woman named Morrigan. She belonged to a USer that visited when he was younger. They would have still been togethor if that User had not left with her after a fight."

"What?!" I was so shocked I stopped paying attention to the geth and Sophia. "Crap explain to me when we get back." Sophia jumped up and had charged in. The geth fired at her an missed as she just jumped to the side at the last minute. She unloaded her rounds picking off the standard geth as she moved. "I have no idea what is going on with her."

"Uh huh." Proto Man said next to me as he stared. He started firing as I charged off.

Galtea: It is due to her ability. She becomes stronger the more people d.e.s.i.r.e her Overlord. Also, the enemy is tampering with this battlefield get ready for some problems. Actually with this world. I believe they are here in this World with the majority of their forces.

'How about you tell me about that User and his connection to you already.' I watched the battlefield and searched the map for anything unusual. 'How about it? I can feel from our link you want to tell me about it.'

Galtea: I am afraid. He is powerful and dangerous. Let the Administration take care of him.
