Hello I am BloodLordShade. This is my first attempt at writing fan fiction. My updates might be a little long as I sometimes go off on random ideas but I do intend to update as fast as possible. But don't feel afraid to PM me to get my butt in gear.

"Intercom"

Disclaimer: I don't own Fallout or Mass Effect

My name is Venik and I am the Lone Wanderer. I am known as the Messiah in the wastelands. They see me as a hero but I am not. I am simply a man who fought for survival and stopped those who preyed on the weak. I am the Scourge of the Enclave but I don't care anymore. I am tired of my life and I feel soon the waste will get me. This is the story of my "death" and what happened after.

I was inside an Enclave base but had found no one but I had watched the base yesterday and there was plenty of activity. I had a bad feeling about this, it was a nagging feeling that I was missing something, it was bothering me when I reached a central chamber in the middle was a small box. I opened it to find a small nuclear bomb counting down. Shit. I turned to the door right as it shut. "Hello boy", said a voice I knew well over the intercom. "Hello Colonel Autumn, what the hell you doing here," I yelled into the room. "Easy, killing you! You see I have this whole base rigged with explosives and I intend on killing once and for all." While he had been talking I ran to the door and started to pick the lock. Once I had it I started to run for the exit. "You have four minute boy to live I hope you make it count as short as it will be! Hahaha." AsI kept running for the door two Enclave Hellfire troopers appeared from around the corner as they saw me I brought out "Ol' Painless" my hunting rifle and fired at their propane tanks trying to make one explode as I reloaded I ducked into a side passage and grabbed a plasma grenade and threw it at their feet. As the explosion died I was already running through pulling out my "Perforator" rifle. As I reached the main front room I saw about sixteen regular troopers a couple of tesla troopers and even a Sigma Squad which I must say I was honored that I was that much of a threat to them. As I rested and reloaded I noticed I had about two minutes to go. I used my pip-boy to get a flame-thrower, never really understood why people called them flamers, and made sure I was ready to go, if I was going to die here they were going with me so I ran out from my cover fire arcing from me and swallowing two troopers and a tesla in the baptism of fire. Flinging a frag at a group of four troopers I managed to kill two fling one to the group and injure the fourth as they returned fire I ducked into a shelf to the side and reloaded then threw two frags together towards three of the six Sigma troopers managing to kill one and causing the others to dive for cover. I had to keep those bastards distracted otherwise their heavy incinerators would do quick work of me. At the thirty second mark I saw Colonel Autumn try to run from the building. "No, you bastard." I charged in my T-51b armor I shrugged off the enemy fire due to med-x and tackled Autumn to the ground. Rolling him over I tell him, "If I am going down your going with me." Right after I said that a flash went off, I laugh as the bomb blows up taking all of us to Hell together.

The first thing I notice was it was bright everything shown with a shine getting up I said, "If this is hell I would love to see heaven." Looking around I saw strange creatures looking at me strangely. Worried I was going to get eaten I run from them not paying attention to where I was going. Eventually I stop and stare at the area I was in it was dirtier then where I just was but I saw a sign that said Wards Marketplace. Looking around I see two of these creatures talking in English of all things. One was in what appeared to me a full body suit almost like a radiation suit but for more than radiation resistance since my pip-boy detected no radiation anywhere around us. The other looked more like a humanoid metallic lizard with strange mandibles. Although the body structure was different they both had three fingers and talon like feet. The lizard was wearing a black light looking armor which seemed to be made of a semi-plastic of some sort. I used my pip-boy to wear my Chinese stealth armor to sneak up closer behind the lizard one to hear what they were saying. "Where's fist and the Shadow Broker" asked the one in the full body suit, it sounded female from the voice but due to it being some different species I couldn't be sure." don't worry, they will be here," said the lizard as he started to stroke her arm. He seemed like a pervert and the girl (?) seemed to agree and pulled her arm away and said, "Forget it, deals off" and started to walk away when the alien started to pull a pistol from his hip and aimed it at her head. Quickly pulling Butch's "Toothpick" from my sheath and slammed it into his back at the spine fourth lumbar down. "Lady said to forget it punk "I tell him as I whirl him around as I pull the knife out the girl spins around when his body falls down. I notice behind her as two oddly shaped bodies pull out pistols and aim them at us." Shit, behind you." Calling up my two "Ultra" SMGs that I had gotten from Sydney for helping her find the declaration of Independence for Abraham in Rivet City.
Unleashing two bursts towards them I see the girl pull out a small block that unfolds into a shotgun and fires at one taking him down firing on the other I see what appears to be an energy shield on him that quickly shatters and he falls from ten 10mm rounds hitting him directly in the chest. As soon as he hit the ground the girl whirls on me and aims the shotgun at me." Hey girl you watch were you point that thing". She shakes her head and says, "Not until you tell me who you are and what you want." I look at her for a second then start laughing." I am not going to hurt you if I had wanted you dead I would have let lizard-boy here shoot you in the back of the head. Anyway do you know where I am?" Suddenly five people run into the little area we were in. Three were humans, two were female, and one was male. There was another of the lizard looking guys, and a huge monstrosity that lucked like a super-mutant and one of these lizards had a child and it was beaten then dosed in radiation. The lead woman was about 5'9" red hair and a slight tan. She had a nice body shape but gave an aura of command and focus. She walked up to the environ-suit girl beside me and said," Miss Tali'Zorah nar Rayya? Are you okay, I am Commander Jane Shepard and I was told you had evidence about the Eden Prime attack?" Tali looked at Shepard and said," Yes I am fine and I do have the evidence you are looking for." Then Shepard looked at me and said," Who are you?" I looked at her for a moment wondering if I should tell her the truth or not." My name is Venik Lowrahn. Now can you tell me where I am, she was about to tell me when you showed up." Shepard looked at me and said calmly," The Citadel of course."
I looked at her gob smacked then laughed a little uneasy," I know we are not at the citadel this place looks nothing like it and you all aren't B.O.S troopers." She looked at me strangely at that. I asked," Where in the wastelands are we?" she said," What wastelands are you talking about we are in the citadel in the Serpent Nebula." I look at her in shock." Bullshit the Serpent Nebula is light-years away from earth nobodies left earth since before the Great Nuclear War in 2161. How in the hell did we get here then." I pull out my "Perforator" and make sure it's loaded. The last time I met aliens they tried to experiment on me. Shepard says quietly," it's the year 2183. We have been in space for 35 years since we discovered the prothean data caches on mars." I look at her dazed what about the nuclear destruction of the united states and most of the world?" She looks at me and then looks at the man behind her. "Why don't you come with us and we can straighten this out?"
I nod dumbly and follow as we leave the area. Eventually we come into a room with two men in it. One is of African descent and has black hair with a slightly overweight body but I can tell by how he holds himself he is a trained soldier I don't recognize the patch on his shoulder so I know he is not Enclave or Brotherhood. The other is an older man with white hair and while not overweight his body and hands are soft showing he is not used to hard work and the moment he opened his mouth I realized something important about him." Shepard you're not making this easy on me. A firefight in the wards, destroying Chora's Den, A Krogan, a Turian, and a Quarian!" I WANTED TO SHOOT HIM SO FUCKIN' BAD! Shepard calmly says," I have evidence proving Saren was behind Eden Prime, Counselor Udina." He looks at her. Tali moves forward," I was on my Pilgrimage when," suddenly the man who had showed up with Shepard said," What do you mean by your Pilgrimage?" She looks at him for a second," It's my people's rite of passage. We leave the Flotilla for a year and come back with a useful gift to give to the Admiral of the ship we wish to serve on, it's to show we can contribute to the ship and not be a waste." I look at her and say softly," I can respect that the useless don't come back and those capable of survival return to help the group. Survival of the fittest at its best, number one rule of the wastelands." Every one stares at me. Most of them in shock at my apparent apathy to those who don't come back, except the large alien he looks at me in careful thought as if he was judging me. Shepard just asks Tali to continue her story." Well I heard about the Geth appearing outside the Perseus Veil. So I followed a Geth patrol to an unexplored planet and found this data." The Admiral, Anderson as his nametag said, said," I thought the Geth destroyed all their data when they died?" Tali said," My people invented the Geth, if you're fast and lucky, you can catch small bits of data." She then played a sound bite." Eden Prime was a major victory. The beacon has brought us one step closer to finding the Conduit." Then another voice spoke," And one step closer to the return of the Reapers." Anderson said I don't know the second voice but I know the first was Saren. This proves he was behind it without a doubt." I stood there not knowing what I was supposed to be doing until Shepard said," Well that solves that problem but what about our friend here," pointing to me, I slightly tense gripping my "Ultra" SMG.
