Before launching or I guess leaving..

On the Bridge of the ship.

"Can he see us? Or hear us?" Riku asked the others.

"Yes. Feel free to talk." Galtea said with a small smile forming on her face.

"Wait did he not hear the chime?"

"It does not look that way. Lunabella turn on his audio. Remove it from speak response. Set it to dual exchange."

"Why do you want that?" Chari asked amused.

"I want to hear what he is singing." Riku smiled as she looked at them. "Besides I have not seen him naked, well completely anyway. Unlike like you Chari. I have not heard him sing either though."

"I have not seen him naked," Chari said shaking her head. Looking up from her Omni-tool she saw what everyone else saw. "Huh, the rookie has a new scar on his back. He also gained a little weight." Looking back down she returned to work.

"Eh... That is all you have to say?" Riku smiled faltered a little. 'Tch I miss Frost. She was easy to tease."

"Should I have more to say? He is a naked male. It is not like we have not seen anything like that before."

"I haven't"

"Neither have I."

"He has decent size quads for a human. More full looking than the last human male I saw." Ruma said licking her lips. "Wonder if he wouldn't mind a toss in the … what is it you humans call it?"

"The hay. Is the term you are looking for." Chari said as she types away on her Omni tool. Her face bunched up when she saw some readings. "Galtea is this accurate?"

"Yes, it is." Galtea leaned back in her chair.

"Ok, what is going on? Why are you all watching him shower? What are you looking at Chari that has you so wide-eyed? Ruma, Azul is not food. Stop that. You cannot eat him!"

"Azul is working on a method for sterilization. Mostly for those with altered genetics. As well as the genetic abnormalities in Krogan, Vorcha, Asari, Drell, and ..Humans." Chari couldn't understand why he was so adamant about it. The logged-in hours spent were staggering. All downtime had gone into this. Only one other person from the crew has worked on it. Working on it was Sophia. A person dubbed Coyote."

"Yes, it is," Galtea said calmly.

"What is it?" Maldova asked coming into the room. Before she could hear an answer. Someone screamed.

"Ahhh," It was Alma. "Have you no decency!" Turning back around she left the room. Tietra stood there blinking as her friend walked away. Stepping into the room she looked at Azul quizzically. After a quick study, she started to work on a terminal in front of her.

Mileuda steeped in the room next. Her mouth opens before closing. She sat down next to Tietra and started to whisper with her.

Maldova looked around and noticed most of the people in the room were just enjoying themselves. 'This is how it should be. Enjoying yourself and still working hard. Reminds of the good old days.' Walking over to the console she pressed the loudspeaker button. "Hey, Azul! You ready to depart?" She looked back at the others. "Unless you get right up to these right here, you won't get anything to go through. Unless you toggle the other interface." Seeing the different expressions she looked to Galtea next. "You didn't tell them?"

"I forgot that part. I have been busy with a lot of work." Putting her hand to her face she stifled a yawn. "Ahhh, sleep time. Should I go get Azul and use him as a pillow? He is very fluffy."

Riku, Tietra, and Mileuda stared at each other. They each have the same thought. How in the world is he fluffy?

(Pov Change Back to Mc.)

"Yeah. I mean I want to finish my shower." Wiping the suds away I blinked. Seeing the screen in front of me, my face tensed up. "How long has this been on?"

"About ten minutes," Galtea said smiling. "I told you. I will do whatever it takes to get you out of your old earthen ways. If you keep it up, I will send you into an H-Game where you will be used as a living dildo."

"That is just wrong. Like really wrong. Fine! I will try to be more open about it." I couldn't help but grumble. Sure that lifestyle interests me. But as a fantasy. Real-life hell nah. I have seen way too many people get shot up and stabbed from stuff like that. Even worse.. framed by a jilted lover. With the power, most of the people have on this ship and counting the number that will be added. I trembled a little.

Hotshot reached over and cranked the heat up a little. I guess she saw me shivering.

"That is good." Galtea smiled closing her eyes. "The rift gate will open in two hours. Meet at the Command bridge by then."

"One more thing Azul," Maldova said.

"Yeah what is it?" I looked back at the screen.

"You have a nice butt. Ever thought about being a stripper? I know a few Matriarchs that would pay big payouts for you." Maldova said flatly.

My eyes widened as I stared at the screen. I could not tell if she was joking or not.

I didnt respond as I shut the screen off. I finished my shower with Hotshot and left. "See you later. If you have any questions about the way it works, find me or Riku."

"Hmm, no problem." She said as she moved some water around her. She sent a water hand to my face and rubbed my chin. "Thanks for not trying anything. It was nice Commander to know I can trust you."

I walked out with a smile. 'That felt genuine.' Putting my clothes back on I sent a biotic strand out. "Kasumi always nearby.. hope you are resting ok."

"Of course.. Commander." Kasumi told me a little mockingly. "Good resistance. A shame though.. I know you wanted to jump her."

"Oh, and how would you know that?" I asked turning into the maglift. Kasumi reached her hand in. Not stepping in but keeping it from leaving just yet.

"Because of this." With a tight grip, she grabbed my dick and pulled. "Because that was sticking up the entire time." Letting go she smiled before moving back. The lift closed right after.

'Heh, she is right.' Alita thought to me. 'You should find a mate soon. As this wolf, it is not that bad. But if I was still a dragon.. this would be bad. You are getting majorly wound up. Good luck with it. I am going to stick around Kasumi for now. I will get her to do some work that we need to be done.'

A few minutes later I was dressed heading down the hall. I wave at the crew members I passed by. Making it to my quarters I stopped and checked on Mileena. "How are you?"

"Strange. Strong but different." Removing the helmet she had on, Mileena hair moved around her face. I couldn't help but step forward and tuck the locks behind her ears. She tensed from my touch. "I know I am disgusting to look at. I do not need your pity."

"Show me the real you." I kissed her forehead and then the side of her mouth. Her teeth came out from hiding when the skin retracted. The System had restored her body to its peak with the pull I offered to her previously. She also asked for the ability to hide her teeth into normal-looking ones. Galtea did that part with her own points. "Ugly. Definitely not. Different yes. When it is just us, you do not need the disguise."

"You really are a strange one." Placing her hands around my neck she pulled me close. "I am not a regular woman by design... I dont need to be treated normally." Her hand reached down clutching my cock. it took only a few seconds for me to become fully erect again. "I can work an fight."

"You.. need to rest. Think about it.. then.. ugh.. we can explore this avenue." I grunted from the feeling. Even with my clothes, I felt her hands easily. Her biotic strands started to drive me wild. No matter how I tried I couldn't turn it off. My Pyscho/Soul power wouldn't let me stop this. "You need to be careful.. I can not stop myself."

"That is fine." Mileena then freed my cock. She slowly stroked me as she never looked away from my eyes. Her eyes searching my own. Releasing her disguise slowly. She watched me looking for any sign of disgust. When her teeth finally showed all the way, my cock throbbed in her hand. Precum dripped onto her hand. "You really are not disgusted by me?"

"Nope..." Responding I kissed her chin when I gained control of myself. "But I am really weird that way. I am attracted to females easily. Well, appropriate ones anyway." Reaching down I grabbed her tight ass. Spreading her cheeks I was surprised when her legs wrapped around me. I fell back onto the bed.

Her tongue snaked out licking all across my face. I felt my cock spurt more precum. My biotics wrapping around us both. I had sexual problems I know. But shit, it felt good to start unwinding.

Mileena moaned from my biotics touching her. She looked at me intensley as she stood removing her own pants.

"You really want me." Her eyes slanted in amusement. Dropping to her knees she slid her teeth along my dick. It jumped in response. Slowly she opened her mouth and with her hand, placed my cock on her long tongue.

The tip of her tongue wrapped around my shaft. Slowly she jerked me, with it. Precum dripping down onto the back of her tongue. I started to thrust as she kept her grip tight. The natural slickness of her tongue making for a great experience.

She pushed my cock up as she stared at me. With each upward thrust, her grip tightened. After a few minutes of this, she unwrapped herself. Her tongue then wrapped around in the opposite direction. This time she stroked down. Her bottom teeth tickled my balls dangerously. The anticipation and my desires driving me to the edge.

I ran my hands down and insert two fingers deep in her pussy. I didnt get to enjoy the feel of her long before she pushed me backward. Rising up she hovered over my cock.

My door opened and Tietra walked in with a datapad and a nutridrink herself. "Umm commander they need you in..." Her voice trailed off as she saw the state me and Mileena were in. "Gulp!" She looked a little dizzy but stared at my tip at Mileena's entrance.

Activating my biotic shield and misty fist to obscure her vision, I tried to stand up. Mileena was having none of that. 'How many times will I be interrupted before I get the chance to have sex?'

"Umm, we may have to stop," I responded weakly. I most certainly did not want to.

"I do not care if she watches. You do not either from the feel of it." Mileena slowly started to descend. My head entering her completely. "Oh, crap."

"Ah, we were told it was urgent c.ccco..mmander." Tietra manages to squeeze out. Before I could tell her anything else, my omni tool went off.

"Azul please head to the command room." Lunabella's voice came out. "The others are waiting."

"Understood," I replied. "We can continue this later." I gave Mileena a lick on the side of her face shocking her a little. She gave me a purr an nodded. She looked over at Tietra a little angry. Seeing the young girls look, her face softened.

"Sorry for interrupting," Tietra said bowing. "I should have announced on the intercom first."

Mileena sauntered over. My cock throbbed as she moved. 'Damn I wanted her badly.' I shook my head. 'Could have sworn I had two hours? It has only been a few minutes.'

"You do not fear my face child?" Mileena head cocked to the side.

"Umm no. You are really beautiful. Just different. I have seen a few other races in the database. What race are you?" Tietra asked innocent and quizzically. Her eyes wander down till the woman was still naked. Her face blushed and went red immediately again.

"How precious." Mileena tongue snaked inside Tietra's mouth. I was too surprised to say anything else. Tietra returned the tongue kiss with equal fervor. Pulling free she stared at the young woman. "We will be friends. Yes.. defintely friends. I will teach you what I know. You teach me about this database. My race is Edenian and Takartan. To answer your question."

Stopping them before heading out, I pulled Mileena back with my biotics. "Clothes first," I told her. I finishing getting dressed myself. I watched as Tietra stared at Mileena. Feeling my gaze she looked away. "Listen.. it is ok if you look at her. Or anyone of the right age... for that matter. Especially if the other enjoys it. Live a little ok?"

"Yes .. thank you, sir." Tietra then looked at me. "Does that go for you as well? You are of the correct age." She started to fidget a little. "I am older than when you first met me. Technically 24 with my age when you applied the patch to me."

"Huh.. well yea I guess so. If you want." Heading to the door I remembered I needed another meal. I was still hungry from earlier. "But your experience is a little different. But it is the same as Mileuda and Mia. You both look older but you kinda are not. Ughh it is hard to explain I guess. Talk to her when you get the chance."

"Wait!" Tietra came over to me then looked at Mileena again before looking back at me. I was not ready for the next thing she did. "Smooch," she gave me a kiss then licked my face. "That is right isn't it?"

"Yeah.. yeah.." I stammered. I looked at Mileena who smiled at me. I guess Tietra became to embarrassed as she pushed me out of my room.

"I have no idea what is going on in my life anymore." I went to the cafeteria to get some food.

(In the command room.)

"Ok, we are ready to depart. So what is the hold-up?" I asked feeling refreshed and raring to go. The sooner we started the sooner we could get back here to take care of one thing.

Everyone in the room remained quiet. Not wanting to deal with this, I allowed my biotics to flow out. Everyone felt wary about going through a rift gate. Well, the people from Mass Effect did. The others looked to Riku.

"Ok Riku what is the problem?"

"I think we should wait. I understand you have prepped to get ready but.. I do not think it is enough." Riku fidgeted in her seat. Doubt washing off her like a tidal wave. "Maybe we should postpone it. Just till we are stronger."

"Postpone... no. Riku the sooner we at least visit your world, the sooner we can figure out where we stand within it. As well the strength of our opponents and what we will face."

"If you die then what?!" Riku said as she looked at me angrily. I could feel something else bugging her. She just wouldn't say what though.

"It is a risk. Do not worry I will get away if it gets to harry."

I immediately felt Sophia and Mileena's disapproval at that.

"Stupid," Riku muttered. "Do not say I didn't warn you." Standing up she walked out the room. Her tail swinging wildly behind her.

Standing up to go after her, Galtea stopped me.

"Wait. Let her cool down some. You can speak to her when you arrive in Spira later. There are other things to tend to."

"Alright very well," I said sitting back down. "Let us proceed."

"Good." Galtea said smirking. "It is about time you act like a Commander again." Looking around the room she nodded before touching the table. A map appeared. "This is your Universe here Maldova. The universe of Mass Effect."

"What is that red gauge to the side?"

"That is the universal instability marker. Once it reaches a certain point the world will start to come apart at the seams. At 13% your world is fine. Not much deviation in its design." Galtea touched a button and a new gauge appeared. This one in green.

"This is the acceptance gauge. The more different outlandish things introduced to the worlds that people accept as normal, the more this goes up. As long as this continues to increase the more the world is allowed to change." Galtea smiled happily. She honestly believed in what she did as an operator. A look of pain flashed before it went away. "That is the purpose of the Users. As well as those they recruit, create or save. She looked around at each of those gathered in the room slowly.

"But peace is not the option mostly used? Most of the time, it is force used instead." Alma said righteously. "A lot of places are conquered with blood."

"Tch your point child. Considering how you have the power of a deity flowing through your veins and you and your cur of a brother did nothing but run. You have no right to speak of other people who tried to do something.. the decisions they made." Something about her just ticked me off. I never cared for Alma much. "How many thousands of people died from the decision you and your brother made at the final battle?"

Seeing her not speak I became angrier. The renegade option appeared over her. I was to wound up to resist.

"You didnt even try to reorganize the church. Didnt try to lead the household you destroyed you left it in shambles dear cousin! You both left. You allowed Delita to kill the princess even. Oh, wait after she became Queen. Your brother should have done more to stop him."

"Azul stop!" Allistar yelled. He looked over to Tietra whose eyes were round as saucers.

"He did what..?" Tietra said in tears.

"You can not be serious." I became absolutely livid. "You two were suppose to tell her. What else haven't you told her?!" Feeling a migraine I rubbed my temple. My fangs came out as I half shifted to my wolf state. "Oh, bloody heck not now."

"We didnt have the time," Alistair said making excuses.

"I did not know how to tell her," Alma said looking at her friend sadly. "It is a terrible subject to discuss. With everything going on.. I felt it should wait."

"Ughh. This is ridiculous. I told you when I left you to spend time with Alma.." I leaned in the chair for a moment then continued. "It was a chance for you to get your affairs in order. Also the chance to catch up Tietra on everything."

"I know that. I just couldn't pull myself away. I didnt want to." Alistair looked at Alma nothing else mattered it seemed.

Shaking my head I looked at Tietra. "Look at me Tietra," I said to her strongly. I sent my biotics out getting her to look up as I sent out my feelings about the situation. "I will not force you to go on this mission if you are not up to it. I can send you for more training if you like instead."

"No. I will go! I am tired of looks of pity. I will fight. When do we leave?" Tietra said shaking. "I need strength as well. Not as bad as you.. but I need it as well. I cant trust them to deal with my brother when we go back. If it is left up to you.. I know you will kill him."

"You are correct in that matter." I usually always shoot straight about the serious things. "I would cut him down with no problem. Especially with the way he is acting. Ramza as well. If you get in the way of that ..."

System: Intimidate Check Succesful 24

"I will kill you. Those that stand with you as well. Am I understood?" I allowed my power to wash through the room hitting everyone. Galtea stared at me. Her eyes were unreadable.

"I believe it would best to get back to the subject at hand.. Commander." Maldova said looking at me. I nodded my head at her.

"We will leave shortly." Looking to the other two I said as neutral as possible, "we will speak about this later." Alistair nodded as Alma tried to find the words to speak to Tietra. "Ugh, this meeting is getting worse by the second. Anyway. That world over there is the world of Warhammer 40k. Hotshot you and Agria will be my go-to people their."

"Why them?" Maldova asked.

"I need dedicated people for it. Agria is already set up for the Imperium." Looking toward Hotshot I need an answer soon about something. "I need to know. I need you to become an Eldar or a Human there."

"Hmmm. What are the benefits of Eldar?"

"Closer to the Asari definitely. You will be my second in command if you choose them."

"Let us do that." Hotshot decided quickly. She looked towards Agria. "Sorry but I dont want to be triple bananas to you. Let's see who can train better troops."

"Agreed," Agria said smiling. The challenge excitied her.

"Right. Alistair and the rest will return back to their world. We have a lot to do in that place."

"What about us?" Maldova asked.

"I would figure you would rather stay running the ship in some of the worlds we travel to. Kind of take a little vacation as it were. Right now I need to build up my physical power as well as my militaristic. So your powerhouses may have to stay."

"So why is Hotshot going then? " Chari asked.

"The world she is going to is full of powerful people. A world of endless war. I didnt think that would be anyone else cup of tea really."

"I will fight if I have to."

"That is if you have to. This place is for those who want to fight. My agreement with the Emperor of Mankind is for me to help the Imperium of Mankind against its enemies."

"Which enemies?"

"The Traitor! The uncontrollable Psyker. The endless tides of Necropolis, Orcs, and Tyrannids." Agria said passionately. "As well as a few dangerous aliens."

"Oh. So they would kill us then?" Ruma said more than asking.

"No. You are my allies. As such, long as you dont start killing innocent civilians, all should be well. Do not worry. My work will only be to help recover planets and sectors that are being invaded. Help secure them and hand them over to the proper people. As for the Craftworlds, I plan on reuniting them and helping them against the Eternal Prince of pleasure of Excess Slaanesh."

"So no wiping out Alien species for shits and giggles then?" Sophia asked. "What a shame."

"No. Just the enemy. I am Human after all. But there I am more of an Eldar. Especially as long as I wield that sword I have."

"About that..." Galtea said looking at me. "Your sword has a piece of Slaneesh in it. An orignal fragment inside before the Eldar God was consumed in that ritual."

"..I am sorry.. what did you just.. say?" I was incredulous as well as Agria.

"We can talk about it later." Galtea said dismissing my concerns. "You need to finish this meeting Commander."

"This place. I want to go. I know of a few outcasts from my clan you could recruit to go there. As long as there is fighting a place to sleep and eat, they will do as they are told." Ruma said smiling rubbing the base of her throat. "I will contact them at once."

"The Krogans sound like Orcs," Agria said offhandley. "They could be made into the green skins to fight. For them, that would be for the best I think."

"That will not be needed," Galtea said as her eyes stopped glowing. "With a spell from me, they can be cloaked it will cost you some points but it will be for the best. I for one agree with you taking the Krogan there. Considering you will need to continue samples for your Genophage a steady supply will work."

"Do you really mean to cure it?" Maldova asked curious and concerned.

"Yes. But mostly to keep them from giving birth to multiple stillborns. At most, they will have smaller litters." I waved my hand after remembering how far I was in its development. "It will be a while before I release to a few communities. Testing is needed and the like. Trials upon trails."

"What will entail a few communities?" The Krogan asked.

"Ones not overly volatile. No point in giving it to them. It would kill them outright." Seeing her look I explained deeper. "The part for the Krogan I have developed will reduce the aggression levels. Fewer secretions from the adrenal gland. Oddly enough it has shown results for possible healthier tissue growth. Such as lung and development for spinal tissue. But that is all.. well speculation results show it. Have to wait and see."

"The Vorcha.. did you not cure them already?"

"Yes and no. I need to make sure they will stay viable. This requires me to reverse engineer the pods from the mine as well as but some hard checks into it. Currently, they will live maybe 10% less than humans. So around 87 or 97. I have not had the chance to go through everything." I felt the female Vorcha behind me exude pure happiness.

"We are in no russsh HiveMassster." She placed a hand on me and squeezed gently. "The others have done what they can to recruit some of the other hivess. They will report back in three months. I expect good results. Especially with the template of what you are looking for in troops and personnel."

"I thank you." Squeezing her hand back, I return my attention to the others. "Ok, let us get this rift open for we can get started on working."
