BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

The shots from the Commander's pistol went as she fired at the structure in front of her. She was hurting badly and oh so wanted to rest her head but pushed on. This was it. She was almost done. All the work she put into these last few years was now coming to an end. And she will be damned if she wasn't going to go out hunched over without finishing what she started!

Righting herself up she held her crucifix hand cannon out properly in one hand and started firing properly like the N7 she is.

BAM!

BAM! BOOM! Went the conduit.

The Commander kept firing. As she did, she felt her life flash before her eyes. She saw her friends that she lost. Thane, Legion, Mordin, and Anderson. Those that stayed by her side, Joker, Tail, Garrus. All the choices she made in her life come to this point. However short it was since she could only remember as far back to the attack on Elysium where her memories of being in the middle of the Skyllian Blitz while organizing a city wide defense against slaver attacks.

BAM! BOOM!

BAM! BOOM! BAM!

Her mind tried to move back to what her life had before it. She could not remember, even after coming back form the dead from being killed by the Collectors and Cerberus bringing her back to the fight. The only things she could remember are from the dreams. The colors of yellow, white, black, and red in her mind. Like a spectator in the back her head.

BOOM! BAM! BOOM!

BAM! BOOM! BOOM!

"He. He."

The women's mind perspective seemed to stop as she heard the sound of laughter. Not one you hear from soldiers or mercenaries that she heard plenty from before from her friends she consider family. But from a little girl.

"Mom, can I have another?" Echoed the voice of a little girl that hadn't lost her innocence.

"Come down Ruby, don't want to spoil your dinner and leave Yang hanging without any of your mothers cookies." Said an older male voice.

"Yes, dad," Replied the voice of the little girl.

Ruby. Yang.

BOOM!

The Red and Yellow.

BOOM!

Her daughters.

BOOM!

The two lights of her life.

BOOM! BOOM!

How could she ever forget them?

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The rest of her life seemed to fill in after that. With the grace of a dreadnought crashing against a planet. She remembered everything. Tears of pain, regret, sorrow, joy and love fell from her silver eyes that hit her worse than all the past injuries she received from the Reapers. She was prepared to die moments before with little to regret on the choices she made.

Now, as the walkway she stood on fell away from under her, sending her into the mass of energy the crucible was building up with.

The only thing that made Summer Shepard Rose regret the most, was not coming home like she promised.


"What do we have?" Asked Dr. Wilson as he looked over his new charge.

"VDF found her outside the city wall during that strange electrical storm that restarted the kingdoms systems." The Nurse explained as she taped away on her tablet. "The soldiers that found her didn't find any scroll or anything that could ID the women but took her picture an ran it through the data base of Huntsman files and public records."

The doctor looked at the nurse in confusion. "Is she a Huntress?"

"She was wearing pieces of body armor that looked like they went through a war zone. Which might answer the question of why she doesn't have a scroll on her." The doctor nodded in acceptance of that hypotheses. Many Huntsman have used armor in the past and present. Thou many just rely on their Aura to protect them, sacrifice protection for agility and speed. Taking chances on avoiding hits rather than taking the chances on getting hit. "Doctor, we've got a match on the Women's ID, and I'm a little lost here."

Dr. Wilson raised an eyebrow. "What's the problem? Who is she?" He asked the nurse.

"The ID came back with an 89% positive on a missing Huntress. Summer Rose, listed as a licensed huntress. A wife to Taiyang Xiao Long, mother of two a Ruby Rose and Yang Xiao Long, both students going to Beacon currently in their first year and with a residence over on the island of Patch off the coast of Vale." The nurse answered.

"Well that's good news. I'm sure her family will be overjoyed that she has returned alive. What's so confusing about that?" The doctor asked.

"Doctor, it says here that she's been missing for close to eleven years."

The little bomb shell made the Wilson go wide eye as he turned to the unresponsive rose laying in her bed. Seeing all the scars and bullet wounds she had on her he wanted to know everything on where she's been.

"Nurse prep the scanners and prep Miss Rose for a full MRI. We need to know what had happened to her and the best way we can do that is to find out how she got the way she is." The doc instructed before turning to leave the room.

"Where are you going Doctor?" The nurse making the man stop for a moment.

"I'll be making some call's to the family.


Just an idea I had floating in the back of my mind.
