“Oh? Uh, electrical powers. It's nothing too special,”

"Not special?! That's too cool!" Melanie exclaimed excitedly "I have one too- not that useful though...I'm sure electricity helps a lot in your job!"

[...]

Sarai shrunk back as Connor took her hand, the girl initially afraid he was going to handcuff her and send her off to the authorities. But that didn't happen. Instead with a warm glow all the pain in her wrist was gone. She looked from her hand and back to him, eyes wide.

"H-How did you do that?" she asked, flexing her fingers.

[Shadow Broker Agent's Office]

“I won't start anything unless he starts something,”

"I make no promises" Chloe said with a slight grin, following along.

Galv looked curious now, slowing down as they got to safety, seeing a few other people milling about wondering what was wrong.

“It can be. Helps me test some devices when I don't want to draw power from the grid...” Galv said, thinking to himself. “What's your power?”

Thundercracker's face fell when Windsong mentioned working for the Empire.

“You work for the Empire? Take my advice, and don't,” the Cybertronian said, “Believe me, I've been in your situation before. I wish I had left the Decepticons sooner then I did.”

Once the group of five would start making their way down to the wards, Kay couldn't help but smile. Not too long on the Citadel and already they were making good progress on finding the boys' dad. At least, she hoped it was good progress. She had a good feeling about the lead, though she also had a feeling that this was only the start. This could be a much longer journey than expected.

She was willing to accept that it wouldn't be easy, but she was going to hope for the best.


[Omega]
-Streets-

Windsong's stature went from that of an obedient soldier to one much like when a child was told their pet had died. For a moment she was silent and un-moving.

Even though she had just put her helmet on, she decided to take it off again. She turned away from the cybertronian and set the helmet to the side. With a deep breath, she turned toward him again.

“My brother and I have been wanting to leave for a long time now,” she confessed. “We were...taken from home when we were kids and trained to fight. We've wanted to go home since then.”

She sat down on the cold floor, crossing her legs and looking down. “It's unsafe. Just like what we're doing with Shadow and Omega, someone else would look for us and probably kill us.” The draiken again faced Thundercracker. “We have nowhere to go. Not many ships, if any at all, go to our homeworld. The planet I came from...its cultures haven't developed space travel yet. Maybe that's changed since we've been gone, but I don't know.”

C was NOT prepared for the sudden rough ride, and the lurch of whatever machine he was currently in threw him hard against the control deck. He managed to barely avoiding getting his face imprinted into one of the switch boards as he smacked sideways into the deck, but was thrown in an opposite direction and across the floor towards one of the walls of the chamber when the machine lurched again. And then again and again as he clung onto one of the pillars on the side, trying to stay in one place without breaking or collecting any more bruises.

Finally, when things settled down and the machine stopped moving, The Doctor began to check and C just groaned in response.

"Yeah. I'm alive. Heck of a rodeo ride though. Is this how you treat all your 'guests'?"

That's when the woman complained, and the Doctor threw in his particularly off-beat comment, and C just couldn't not respond.

"Oh yeah, as if you don't know who I am. You're hunting ME, lady, so I don't think it helps you right now to play dumb."

It didn't quite hit him yet that he's been told he's inside a time machine...

“I'm not hunting you, idiot.” Nanami snapped at C as she glared at him. She had always trusted her feelings, but this was one of the times when she wished she hadn't. She slowly stood up and brushed off her pants, groaning slightly as she rotated her shoulder. Luckily the pain wasn't too bad.

“... I was following you by a hunch when I ran into the bounty hunters. I was just trying to figure out what was going on and now you and this guy are, what, kidnapping me?” Nanami raised an eyebrow. “I can promise you that's a mistake.”

“Oh stop bickering,” The Doctor walked between them and over to the door. “We have much bigger problems. We could be anywhere in all of time and space, and there's a lot of places out there that I'd really rather avoid-”

He cracked the door open, glanced out, and then quickly slammed it shut.

“Oh.” He frowned. “So I need to fix this so we can get out of here now. Try not to kill each other and do NOT open that door.”

Nanami eyed the man warily. “Where are we? What kind of ship is this anyway?”

“... We're in the docking bay of an Imperial ship.” The Doctor announced quietly. “And the moment they realize we're here, it's going to be a very bad day.”

[Citadel]
[Alliance Military Base]

“... It's just something I can do.” Connor shrugged. “A power I've had all my life. I don't know where it came from.”

He smiled and rubbed his neck. “So... what are you doing here, anyway?”

[Lower Ward]

The lower ward of the Citadel was much less prim and posh than the upper levels. It was where people actually lived, and where some of the shadier establishments operated. It was still well protected by C-Sec, but it was a place where certain dangers were all the more pronounced.

Musashi stayed close to the others as the elevator arrived. He glanced around, and fell far quieter than usual as they stepped off and came onto the road.

“Okay, this Jarrus guy is supposed to be a drunk, right? So lets check some of the bars.”

[Omega]

[Haruka & Lily's Place]

Haruka paced back and forth as she reflected on things, letting Lily take the lead on talking for now. She knew that sometimes the freezing process could mess with the memory – it was one reason that people seldom used deep freeze pods like that.

“You don't know the Empire? Jeez, what, were you frozen twenty years ago or something?” Haruka raised an eyebrow – and then she frowned. It might have been possible. “... They're a bunch of jerks who control most of the universe and love to ruin a good time. And they wanted you it would seem. Any idea why?”

“Of course he would be,” Hammah sighed.

Jimi glanced towards Kay, moving a little closer to her.

“Hopefully we can find him...” Hammah added.

Thundercracker frowned, hearing this organic's story. Her fate seemed pretty similar to what his had been.

“...I know a guy I think could help you two out! Get you away from the Empire and maybe even back to your planet!” Thundercracker said, “What do you say?”

Haruka and Lily's Place

“No... no idea,” Sayuri answered, frowning. “I feel... something...”

She tilted her head, staring at the door. “Something very bad is about to happen.”

Lily turned to look, when the door was suddenly smashed open, a krogan in armor stepping inside, wielding a shotgun!

“Aria wants a word with you,” the krogan growled, several other mercenaries filing in behind him.

“As long as he's not one of those 'I only drink alone' types,” Kay commented, shrugging her shoulders.

Noticing Jimi inch closer to her, she reached for his hand. While she could certainly handle herself, she didn't mind letting him get a little protective. She wasn't protecting his pride, she just wasn't arguing.

Besides, she really liked holding hands with him.


[Omega]
-Streets-

The armored draiken's pointed ears twitched. “You...I...really? You would do that?” she asked. While Windsong didn't want to get her hopes up, her tail sweeping the floor behind her gave way to how she felt. A way out. A way home.

“Oh, oh! I need to...hang on.” She scrambled to her side to grab her helmet. She didn't put it on, but she put it up to her face and held down a button.

“Lavo, where are you?” she asked.

Through the speaker in the helmet came out loud music and a deep, stressed-out voice. “I'm at Afterlife. They're not here, this place is loud and bright and-”

“What in the hell are you doing in there?!” Windsong interrupted. “You could have asked me to check it instead, you know that...oh nevermind. I found something you might be interested in. I'm on your NavPoint.”

“Anything to get me out of here,” Lavo replied.

Windsong shook her head and set the headpiece down again. She muttered something about her brother not having to prove anything.

In only a few moments, the green draiken approached. He stopped a few feet away, seeing the very large robot and his small canine companion so close to his sister, who was still sitting on the ground.

“Windy? What's going on here?” He then looked at Buster. “And what is that?”

“So... what are you doing here, anyway?”

Sarai kept her eyes on her now healed hand, amazed that she could feel no pain, until Connor asked her what she was doing here. She looked back up at him much like a child who knew she was in trouble....

The girl opened her mouth to speak, but she hesitated. She didn't want to lie to Connor. "I-I can't say anything...You're really nice, but I don't want you to get into trouble too....It's bad..."

Sarai stood back up, looking towards the door. "I need to go, i'm already late....Things will get bad if I stay..."

[...]

“What's your power?”

Melanie shrugged "I can make it dark...And cold...It's really not that useful unless I wanted to freeze someone to death or something. My brother got the opposite. My mom got both."

"MEL!"

Melanie blinked, looking over to see Jason rushing over. "Speaking of my brother-"

Jason caught up to the two, catching his breath. "What did you do Mel?! Crash a fighter or catch it fire?"

Melanie wrinkled her nose "I didn't do all this! I'm not THAT inept!"

[Lower Ward]


“Okay, this Jarrus guy is supposed to be a drunk, right? So lets check some of the bars.”

Chloe's eye lit up "Oh! Bar hopping, me likey!"

There were quite a few bars littering the street. She raised her hand, playing a silent game of ennie meenie minee mo.

"That one!" she suggested. It looked especially sketchtastic.

"Wait, WHAT??? You brought us to an Imperial ship??? For someone who says he wasn't after me, you sure have a strange way of showing it! And what the hell? Time travel? Time travel doesn't exist, bub, or we'd be knee-deep in time travelers by now. So either you're high off your kite or you're trying to find out how much bullshit I can handle, and I'm calling you on it."

C turned a wry glare to Nanami, snapping back a response to her as well.

"And I don't do kidnappings, and have no idea who this bozo is. I don't trust you, I don't trust your word, and even if what you say is true, I don't think I am happy to replace a bounty hunter with a creepy stalker. And let's not mention how buddy-buddy you were with those four-eyed, gun-toting, trigger-happy psychopaths!"

He sighed, finally pushing himself up to stand, leaning back against one of the strange pillars in this control room. It took him a moment to get his breathing under control, but when he did, he raised a hand to his face, rubbing against his eyes.

"... Crap. Sorry, I just... Look, this is a mess. I have no clue what the hell is going on, you were following me, bounty hunters are after me, and if I am hearing this right, we have used some sort of teleportation device to get on board of an Imperial ship. And that's... Not good, because I am almost one hundred percent sure they are the guys after me right now. So now I'm stuck here with you, complete strangers. One of which saved my ass and helped me with wounds, but also brought me right to the Empire, and one who was following me and acted very friendly with people who wanted to shoot me."

Nanami watched C as he went through a range of motions. It was clear that he was swallowed by disbelief and anger, but really she got the feeling this guy was in way over his head and was terrified of what that meant. As she stood and stared at him, she felt sorry for the hacker.

“... Are you done?” She raised an eyebrow when he finally stopped talking. “Good. Now take a deep breath and start thinking logically. I'm armed and you're only a few feet away, so if I was trying to kill you I would have made a move by now. I'm not. I don't care about your bounty. I also don't care if you believe me. Frankly, I'd be perfectly fine if you escape or if you get caught – but seeing as the Empire is a royal pain in the ass, I'd rather see you escape just to annoy them.”

She then turned away from him, focusing her eyes on the Doctor – who was still rummaging around and doing something to the TARDIS control console. “What I want to know is why you brought ME with you! This has nothing to do with me, and I don't need extra headaches in my life.”

The Doctor focused on his work, but he also frowned. He had found himself in a sudden precarious situation.

“I knew you weren't a bounty hunter, and those hunters probably would have killed you if they didn't find C.” He replied at length, without turning to look at either of his guests. “I don't like seeing people die. Not when I can help it.”

He stood up and turned towards them, though now his eyes were on C. “I am sorry for taking you to the Empire, but it wasn't my intention. That bullet messed with my navigational systems and unfortunately in this age the Empire controls, well, most of space. It's a big place, but these days the Empire's hard to avoid.”

It was clear from his tone that the strange man in the trenchcoat didn't like this fact. “Now, I can fix the TARDIS and get us back to the Citadel but it will take some time so just... sit tight.”

[Citadel]
[Alliance Military Base]

“Wait!” Connor frowned. He could tell something was wrong, and now he had the nagging feeling that it was connected to the fire alarm... and to her falling from the ceiling.

He swallowed hard. Was she some kind of spy? An Imperial? It was possible...

“If you're in some kind of trouble, let me help you.”

He couldn't help himself.

[Lower Ward]

Musashi found he was stuck between polar opposites. Hammah, Kay and Jimi seemed to be unsure if this would even work – while Chloe was her overconfident usual self. He just sighed and headed towards the bar Chloe had pointed out.

“It should be fine... if this guy is some drunken loser, I'm sure the bars all know him. So even if he's not here, maybe we find out where he hangs out, or better yet, where he lives?”

[Omega]

[Haruka & Lily's Place]

Haruka jumped up, facing the krogan and growling. She walked forward, seemingly unafraid of the very large shotgun in her face.

“The F*CK is your problem? I'm in the middle of a damn job for Aria! All she had to do was call! And she's paying for my new door! I tell you that much right now!”

Sarai stared at Connor, unable to figure out just why this man wanted to help someone he had just met, even when it was obvious (from her falling out of the celing) that she was probably up to no good. She wondered if this was just a trap, but considering her options she decided to try her luck and trust him...

"I-If you want to help me I need to get this to my dad" She said softly, pulling out the small thumb drive from her purse. "If I don't give it to him- well...It's just better for everyone if I give it to him..."

[Lower Ward]

"Sweet! Then away we go!" Chloe exclaimed, grabbing Musashi's arm and dragging him (literally) into the bar. Instantly the girl was overcome by a cloud of foul smelling smoke and the sounds of men arguing over their drinks. Chloe wrinkled her nose but continued forward looking around until she spotted the bar.

"First stop the bar, drunkards are usually huddled in the corner under a pile of empty bottles right?" she suggested, waving the smoke from her face.

Jimi frowned as he looked around, wrinkling his nose at the smells. Jimi didn't really drink much... for some reason it never really seemed to effect him, so he didn't bother with it.

Hammah walked up to the bar, moving easily through the crowd, trying to feel out those around him, sense with his powers.

“...Got some video,” Garrus finally said, looking triumphant. He pulled up a display, showing it to Shepard, showing a young woman messing with things and planting the smoke bombs...



“It's something else,” Galv nodded, stepping forward, “The smoke came out from the vents when the fighter was running it's diagnostics. Melanie was doing just fine!”

He had also landed on Melanie but he wasn't going to mention that.

“That's Buster!” Thundercracker said, “She's a dog. My name is Thundercracker.”

He waved towards the organic, “Your friend here was telling me about you two, and I thought I could help out. Maybe get you home.”

Haruka and Lily's Place

“Please, please, forgive them, they're... eager.”

A human stepped forward, wearing power armor himself, smiling a sleazy looking smile. “But Miss T'Loak, she is... concerned. An agent reported that you got into the Empire ship and got out, with... the goods Miss T'Loak hired you two to retrieve for her.”

Lily frowned, “But the only thing we found was... wait...”

Her eyes widened, glancing towards Sayuri.

It was quite a chain of events, quite a coincidence, if this Doctor guy was to be believed. He appeared, found C, booked it, grabbed Nanami, and they were now on board a small ship that was inside a larger Imperial craft. If that wasn't enough, apparently this woman in yellow wasn't a bounty hunter, this Doctor guy appeared there through sheer happenstance, but it was now official and there were bounty hunters after Rune.'

With a sigh, the young man leaned back against a pillar, letting his mind wander for a moment. A calming whisper in his ear was enough to get him to take a deep breath and release some of the tension.

"... Fine. Say I believed you, and that this whole trip to the Empire wasn't exactly planned. How can I help get us out of here faster?"

Kay kept close to the group, silent and alert. Her gut told her this place was not one where you let your guard down. Despite being around a ton of alcohol, the atmosphere sobered her up enough to be as focused like a stray cat stalking its prey while simultaneously watching for another hungry predator.

She quietly chuckled from the thought. What a grim way to look at searching a bar for a drunkard.


[Omega]
-Streets-

Lavo squinted. "Wait, hang on. Windy, what...?"

Windsong quickly stood up. "Thundercracker wants to help us get away from the Empire! Lavo, we might even be able to go home!"

"Home..." the brother repeated under soft breath. He stepped back and removed his helmet from his head. His ruby eyes glared upon the synthetic and his dog. "How are you sure we can trust him?" he asked.

"It's better than this!" the orange draiken replied, motioning to her armor.

Lavo frowned. "He could be a spy, you know. He could be making sure we don't stray from the mission and punish us if we do!"

"You're doing that paranoid thing again!" Windsong shouted. "He could have killed me minutes ago if he wanted to."

The tall draiken started to shake with anger and fear. What had his sister gotten herself into?

As Edda offered to lead Kagura into the ship, Solei approached Paul, at least to ask if he could lead her to a grocery.

But that idea of Solei's was interrupted by a loud whistle from someone else in the docks area, passing by.

"Ooooooh, that's a faaaaaaancy little ship you found there, Solei!" the lady who whistled then spoke out.

"You guys better not be trying to kidnap her, though" the lady then added, as she walked up closer.

Rosetta may not have found Nanami, but finding Solei was a bit unexpected
