《Siame (Mass Effect fanfic)》CHAPTER TWO: THE UNKNOWN
Advertisement
They approached one of the abandoned buildings near the location they had spotted a few Krogan just to see if they could find anything.
They managed to slip in undetected and moved through the compound, “this place is massive, any idea where to even start?” Ryker wondered.
Le’Nassia pulled up the area on her omni-tool to try and see what would seem logical, “what do we have here?” A big ass Krogan appeared behind them, “well shit, a human and another Asari..And both pretty at that, maybe Drogar will actually want these two…” he grabbed hold of both of them. He said another Asari, Le’Nassia thought the same thing Vanessa did at that, her sister was here, “Wetx! Put these two in the hole til the boss gets a look at them.”
They were dropped in a cell, down in a hole. They needed to think how to get out and figure out where the other Asari was to see if it was her sister.
Few hours passed, Ryker tried to think how they were going to get out. All Krogans look pretty much the same, slight differences...their colors and scars helped but they never seemed to have the same krogan walking by, every few hours it was a new one so she couldn't sweet talk one of them to get out of here...they were stuck for now.
Then a familiar sound of shift change came, but this one was different, "Ryker? Is that you?” A voice called to her but she wasn't sure she wanted to respond not knowing if it was someone out to kill her or help her, “Ryker it's Rorik...You know the Krogan from Omega?”
“Rorik?” She walked up to the bars, “ what are you doing here?” Rorik was a young krogan, young was a play on words because when she met him he was 160yrs old, Krogans can live to be 1500 yrs old if they live to be old.
They met on Omega which was more like a floating nightclub than a planet, but most of the gangs and scum of the earth made their way to Omega.
“My brother got me into this group of Blood pack. He's the second in command under Drogar.” He looked her over, “what are you doing here?” The Bloodpack which were made up of Vorcha and Krogan mostly. They were banned from a lot of the spaceports but seemed to thrive on Omega, Tuchanka...and Pragia.
“It's a long story, but right now I'm looking for someone...Have you seen another Asari around here?”
Rorik thought about it a moment, “I think I saw one or two up with the boss not long ago. Can't be sure though that was a few days ago and it was quick, I wasn't there long. Are they a friend of yours Ryker?”
“One could be a sister to my friend here and I really want to make sure she's alright, and find her, any way you can help us out? Find any info?” She hoped he would be willing since she stuck her neck out for him before.
Le’Nassia couldn't believe how much Ryker was willing to help her with nothing in it for her, and how lucky she was that Ryker knew someone here.

“I might be able to take a look again for yeah since I do owe ya for my life Ryker more than once, it's the least I could do...what's her name?” Rorik looked at Le’Nassia.
“Jineya,” Le’Nassia was thankful he was kind.
“No promises, but I'll try and see,” he turned to leave.
“Ryker...thank you,” Le’Nassia looked like she could cry.
Ryker went over and took her hands, “we're gonna find her, I'll get us outta here one way or another.”
Le’Nassia believed her, this human had an amazing power and strength in her and it made people want to believe in her...and themselves... anything was possible…
“Ryker?” Rorik had come back some hours later. She and Le’Nassia had drifted off to sleep, Rorik was waking her up, “Ryker?”
“Hmm, yeah?” She opened her eyes to a smiling Krogan.
“You know you're cute when you sleep?” Rorik was always kind to her.
“Aww my knight in shining armor,” she smiled at Rorik, “you have anything for me?”
“Besides myself?” He jested, “yeah the boss has three Asari up in his chambers...one I found out is your girl...that's the good news.”
She wasn't gonna like this, “what's the bad news?”
“Boss took a liking to your girl most, she's his personal Asari, not sure how you're gonna get to her without taking him out.” Rorik looked saddened.
“Hey why sad all of a sudden?” She walked over to him.
“I don't want him to kill you, you've always been good to me...I like you,” he fumbled with his hands.
She touched his face, “I have no intentions of dying today...I've already almost died twice and said no, so I don't plan on making it a third...ok?”
He smiled at her, “when the guys go to bed in a few hours I'll come back and let you out. Then we will be even...hope after that we can be friends?”
“Oh Rorik, we've always been friends, I was never keeping track that was always you…” she held his hands, “I'll always be your friend.” That made him smile, he turned to leave smiling still back at her.
Le’Nassia walked up to her, “you have such an amazing effect on people you know that?”
Ryker looked at her, “what do you mean?”
“You inspire, uplift, and make them believe in anything...it's breathtaking to see.” Le’Nassia faced Ryker and placed a hand on her face, “I know I made the right choice.” She smiled at her and let her hand run across her cheek.
She brought her hand up and placed it over Le’Nassia's and closed her eyes. To have someone that bestowed so much faith in her when they didn't know her was humbling she didn't want to let her down...she would do all she could to find and free Jineya now.
Rorik stayed true to his word, when everyone else went to sleep, he snuck the two of them out and sent them on their way. Ryker promised no matter what happened she wouldn't get him in trouble for this and she even made it look as though they roughed Rorik up a bit, so not to seem like he helped.

Ryker and Le’Nassia made their way further into the compound trying to find Drogar. They finally found the room they were looking for, it indeed had two other Asari there, “Jineya isn't one of those two,” Le’Nassia told her.
“She must be further in,” maybe we can get information out of these two?” They dropped down from the rafters they were at and the two Asari were startled to see them, “it's alright I mean you no harm.” Ryker tried to calm them.
It wasn't until they saw Le’Nassia from behind Ryker they finally settled some, “who...who are you?” One of them asked, they looked like they've been here a long time...and beaten.
“I'm Vanessa, this is my friend, Le’Nassia. We're looking for her sister Jineya, have you by chance seen or heard of her?” The one that spoke to Ryker got antsy, “it's alright, no one is going to hurt you anymore I promise,” Ryker touched her arm and she settled again.
Le’Nassia amazed yet again that this being and her gentle words and spirit could calm such brokenness was beyond her...if she would have been born Asari she'd be a Justicar, or a holy one.
“She is a few rooms down...with Drogar. He makes us dance for him, all three of us...but her...she is used for other entertainment,” the Asari began crying Ryker brought her up to embrace her in a hug, her fraile blue arms shaking wrapped tight around Ryker's body. She wept hard into Ryker's chest, all she could do was sit and hold her and let her have her cry.
Ryker lifted the Asari's face and smiled at her “We're going to get her, then we will be back for the two of you. So stay strong for me and be ready to go ok?” The Asari gave her a small smile and nodded, “alright, I'll be right back.” The other Asari took the one from Ryker and held her as Ryker and Le’Nassia went on to the next room.
Ryker could hear some commotion going on but couldn't make out what it was. They neared the door they assumed was Drogar’s, “you gonna dance for me pretty girl?”
“No, I don't want to dance for you!” That voice it was Jineya, Le’Nassia knew for sure.
“Ryker,” she looked at her, but Ryker already knew.
She grabbed Le’Nassia's hand and gave it a squeeze then they busted through the door.
“What the hell!” Drogar spun around shotgun in hand. Jineya hid around the side of the bed, then she saw Le’Nassia.
“Sia?” she had never been so happy in her life to see her sister, but who was this human?
“Drogar I'm here for Jineya.” Ryker aimed her assault rifle at the Krogan but was scanning the room for anyone else that could be hiding, she wished she had fixed her AI before they came in here.
“Yeah who the hell do you think you are busting into my joint?” Drogar started circling her, but she matched him step for step.
“Does it matter who I am?” she counted one more in the rafters above the bed with a sniper, she couldn't let that one get Le’Nassia or Jineya. She switched her grenade and was ready to loft it at him soon as she got her girls clear.
“From the looks of things you're military, or at least former military...you don't talk like a merc...nor alliance...gotta be N7 ass kisser,” he smirked at her.
“Damn all that from my little snide comments, you're good,” she held her hands out to him to clap.” She tried to indicate to Le’Nassia to move away with Jineya by shifting her eyes to the side. Le’Nassia picked up on it and moved from that area. Ryker readied the grenade, “what do you know about us N7’s?”
“You fight dirty to get a job done...not much different from a merc…” he still smiled at her.
“That is true, only thing is... I'm not on a job..this is personal,” she pitched the grenade at the sniper and put a biotic bubble around herself, the grenade exploded everywhere, “and when it's personal things get much worse.”
The grenade not only killed the sniper, it had knocked the Krogan off his feet, making him drop his shotgun, Ryker ran in…She slide grabbing the shotgun turned it quickly on the falling Krogan and fired…
Le’Nassia stood holding her sister, it was all a blur, Ryker moved so fast. Almost as soon as the grenade left her hand the Krogan laid dead on the floor, she didn't see her even charge in for the shotgun...she would hate to see what Ryker could do at full capacity...she hoped they never ended up on opposite sides.
Ryker came back to them and gathered her assault rifle, “let's go get the other two and get out of here shall we?”
Jineya nodded, “yeah I think we've been here long enough,” Le’Nassia smiled happy she had her sister back and safe.
Ryker went and got the other two Asari girls, and the five of them snuck back through the rafters that brought them to Drogar's chambers in the first place.
Ryker could hear Rorik and another krogan fighting near the compound where he had released them, he was being questioned about their escape and the krogan was telling at him about getting his ass handed to him by two girls. After the yelling stopped all looked over until the other krogan turned around and head-butted Rorik and proceeded to walk away.
Ryker made her way down first to make sure all was clear, and as she signaled for the others it was safe she made her way over to Rorik, "Rorik," she whispered as she shook him.
He stirred, "please don't hit me," Rorik covered his face.
"Rorik it's Ryker," she looked around to make sure no one was coming still.
"Ryker, did you get her?" He laid there smiling at her.
"Yeah, we found her...thanks to you." She smiled back at him.
"Good, it was good seeing ya...you stay safe now."
"You also Rorik, I'll be seeing ya." With that she got up and met up with her group.
They made their way down the mountain to a ship Le’Nassia had hidden to get off Pragia for good.

The Villain's Double Life
“The Villain’s Double Life as the Hero’s Mentor," “Demon Nobles Want to Live Too: A Hero-Raising Simulator for the Transmigrated Villain," “Just Because I’m a Villain Doesn’t Mean I Want the World to End!” Cyrus Calvide was the second son of an aristocratic lord; haughty, vain and power-hungry. One day, when his ancestral inheritance manifested, he discovered he was able to steal other’s powers and abilities using demonic magic. Taking this as a sign that he was destined to rule over others and become the new king of this land, he poisoned his father, killed his elder brother, and embarked on the path to greatness, taking advantage of a demonic invasion to consolidate power and harvest the abilities of others in a cruel and bloody fashion. Until he was summarily defeated by the Hero as a mid-game boss battle and executed for his crimes, of course. When a dedicated fan of the RPG “Next to Eden” awakened in the body of the cruelest future Count, four years before the beginning of the game, he pledged to live humbly. He would let his brother lead and support the Hero from the shadows to ensure the demon invasion would be defeated and he could enjoy life in peace. Rather, he would have, if he hadn’t gotten the Hero’s mentor killed in a freak monster attack before the Hero’s training could even begin. How was he supposed to live a life of peace and luxury if the Hero couldn’t stop the end of the world!? Donning a mask, Cyrus took up mentoring the Hero himself; how hard could it possibly be? . . . Four years later, the kind jack-of-all-trades hero Leon had become a twisted powerhouse: alienating his party members, clearing enemy encounters in a single magical blast, and coldly ignoring the affections of the girl whose love would have allowed him to clear the final boss. He seemed to have plastered himself to his Master’s side, instead. Cyrus bit back his despair while the hero reached out to grasp his hand. “Please stop ignoring the saint, Leon; you can't beat the Demon King by grinding stats! You need the power of love, remember?” “Don’t worry, Master,” Leon smiled as he traced the lines of Cyrus’s palm gently, almost reverently. “I have all the love I need.” VDL is two parts plot and worldbuilding, one part slow-build gay romance, starring a man far too proud to admit he's in over his head and the hero who loves him. Should be updating weekly.
