Ever stand up too fast and it feels like you tried to read an elder scroll

So I have this idea in my head of a Skyrim x Dragon Age fic. It would be A Nord Dragonborn and Iron bull story. I wrote part of the first chapter but I don’t like it that much. It probably will be a while before it is out. And also a good title for the fic too. 

I always have problems with titles and names.

Another Galaxy, More to Save

Another Galaxy, More to Save

Chapter One

_________________________

Her name was Artemis Shepard. She saved the galaxy from the Geth, the Collectors, and soon The Reapers. She was rewarded the Star of Terra for saving Elysium. The Skyllian Blitz. She rallied the colonists against the invaders, and when the forces broke through the colonies defenses, Shepard single-handly held them off and sealed the breach. She was only twenty-two (22) years old. An amazing feat for someone so young. She survived all the trails that were thrown at her. But can she really survive the aftermath of The Reapers?

She sat there looking outside the big window as she saw ships exploding in her sight. She turned towards Admiral Anderson.

“Commander,” His breath was harsh, he was losing a lot of blood but she had hope that he will survive. He was a fighter. He always was.  

“We did it.” Shepard breath out smiling a little. She was losing blood. She can feel herself getting weaker. She turned her head to look back towards the large window.

“Yes, we did. It’s, uh quite a view.” Debris was floating in front of the window. All those lives lost.

Shepard gasped for breath, “Best seats in the house.” She groaned out.

“God feels like years since I last sat down.” Anderson trying to stay calm but he knew what was to come.

“I think you earned some deserve some rest.” Shepard looked over at him, watching him.

“Mmm.” Anderson groaned. “Stay with me. We’re almost through this.” Shepard tried to keep talking to keep him there with her.

“You did good child. You did good. You made me proud.” Anderson looked over at Shepard from the corner of his eyes, trying to turn his head towards Shepard as she looked outside. He was swelled with pride. He was really proud of her. Like a parent proud of their child for doing something incredible but that is what Shepard did. She did do something incredible. His eyes closed as he started to slump down. “Thank you, sir.” Shepard looked over at Anderson, “Anderson?” She called out but he didn’t answer her. She closed her eyes trying to not to shed a tear. She looked down to her left side, moving her hand to see blood. Her own blood. She too was ready to die.

As soon as she started to close her eyes she heard a voice, “Shepard. Commander!” It was Admiral Hackett. Shepard shook her head trying to stay awake. “I uh what do you need me to do?” She grunted trying to crawl to get up. She lost a lot of blood. She was weak. They needed her. She can’t be weak. Not now!

“Nothing is happening! The crucible isn’t firing.” She heard Hackett, she stood up but she stumbled and fell to the ground once more. “It’s got to be something on your end.” She crawled over to the control panel, in pain, blood was smeared across the floor as she dragged herself. “Commander Shepard!”

“I don’t see- I’m not sure how to…” her hand was stretched out for the console but she was on the ground so she could not reach. She fell once again. Her eyes closed. Is this the end of Commander Shepard? Did she doom everyone? Did she really fail everyone?

“Commander!” Hackett yelled once again. But as she heard his voice there was thunk and a bright light. She was lifted up on a platform. She got on her hands and knees looking up she saw a boy walking towards her. The same boy she saw when this all started. Another thing that has failed, that came back to haunt her. He kneeled down to her.

“Wake up. He said. The voice was human but robotic at the same time. Shepard gathered her strength and stood. She looked around, “What? Where am I?” She asked the boy.

“The Citadel. It’s my home.” The boy replied looking up at her. Shepard glanced around some more than replied, “Who are you?”

“I am the catalyst.” His voiced echo across the room.

“I thought the Citadel was the Catalyst?” Shepard was confused but a lot didn’t make sense nowadays. “No. The Citadel is apart of me.” He replied sharply.

“I need to stop the Reapers. Do you know who I can do that?” She asked the Catalyst. “Perhaps I control the Reapers. They are my solution.” He started to walk away from Shepard and Shepard followed, limping behind him.

Shepard stopped, “The solution to what?” She was sluggish and weak but she had enough energy to do this. She has to.

“Chaos.” One word and he didn’t stop. Shepard started to walk once again. Sluggish and limping. She is strong. She can do this. She kept on telling herself. Everyone is counting on me.

“The created. Will always rebel against their Creators. But we found a way to stop that from happening. A way to restore order for the next cycle.” He kept walked and never looked back at her.

“By wiping out organic life?” She stopped once again and this time he stopped also. He turned towards Shepard, “No. We harvest advanced civilizations. Leaving the younger ones alone. Just as we left your people alive the last time we were here.” He explained as he continued to walk more as Shepard followed once again.

“But you killed the rest?” She gasped a bit as walked towards him some more. “We held them ascend and become us, allowing new life to flourish, while preserving the old life forever in Reaper form.” He stopped and looked over at Shepard.

Shepard stared out the window of debris and destruction. “I think we rather keep our own form.” Looking back over at the Catalyst.

“Impossible. Organics will always trend to a point of technological singularity. A moment in time where their creations outgrow them. Conflict is the only result, and extinction the consequence. My solution creates a cycle which never reaches that point. Organic life is preserved.”

“But you’re taking away our future. Without future, we have no hope. Without hope…we might as well be a machine… programmed to do as what we’re told.” Shepard looked down at the Catalyst. She couldn’t believe what she was hearing.

“There is hope. Maybe more than you know. The fact you are standing here, the first organic to do so in countless cycles, proves this. Just as it proves my solution is no longer valid. A new solution must be found.” The catalyst had sounded a bit annoyed.

“So what now?” The Catalyst walked forward a bit to see three different walkways.

“The crucible has altered my function. I can’t proceed. I can only guide you in its use. Its energy can be released as a destructive force. Organics will prevail at our expense. All synthetic life will succumb. As will much of the technology your kind rely on. Including the relays, you depend upon.” The catalyst looks up at Shepard.

“But the Reapers will be dead?”

“Correct. But the probability of singularity occurring again in the future is certain.” Catalyst replied.

“And the other choice?” Shepard asked.

“Harness the Crucible’s energy. Use it to take control of the ones you call the Reapers.

“Control? So the Illusive Man was right!” Shepard couldn’t believe it.

“Correct..though he could never have taken control, as we already controlled him.” The Catalyst pointed over to where Shepard could control the reapers.

“What will…happen to me?” She asked.

“You will become the catalyst. You will continue the cycle as you see fit.”

“And the, the Reapers will obey me? She tilted her head a bit holding her side firmly. She knew she didn’t have much time left.

“Correct. There is one solution. You may combine the synthetic and the organic.” Shepard looked down at the catalyst as he pointed to in front of them as a new walkway appeared.

“Combine?”

“It is a very elegant solution. And a path you have already started down. The harvesting will cease. It will be a new ascension, for synthetic and organic life.”

“So I just..” she trailed off not knowing what to say.

“Add your energy, your essence, with that of the Crucible. The resulting chain reaction will transform both of our kind. We synthetics will become more like you, and organic life will become like us.”

“So we’ll just…go on living, together?” Shepard was hopeful. But is this what she truly wanted?

“But you must act. I can’t proceed. Go. If you don’t the cycle will continue, but I will no longer control the reapers.” She looked over at the Catalyst. She must choose quickly. She took a deep breath and started limping slowly. She can do this. She can make this. For everyone. For every race, child, woman, men. She can do this. She gave herself a little pep talk. She grabbed her gun and started shooting. She was going to destroy the Reapers. Sorry, Edi. Sorry Geth. I see you on the other side. As she gave the last shots she flashes of people who she cared about. Anderson, Garrus, Joker, Thane, Mordin, Tali, Jack, Liara, Javik…everyone. All those who served on the Normandy.

And then there was an explosion. And everything went black. But right before she blacked out, she saw green.
