General Flashback 1: Virmire

(Y/N)'s POV

It took quite some time to get to the Salarian base camp since all of the crew members had to fit in the Mako and go through various Geth posts. I'm quite surprised that the Mako was able to withstand a lot of shots from the Geth. But I guess that Alliance technology for you. When we got there, we all exit the Mako and went our separate ways to do whatever before we do the big mission: to take Saren down, whether by arresting him or kill him. Either one would do but knowing how deadly he made things...I think option 2 would be better.

I stand outside a tent on the beach, watching small waves being made. It is quite a lovely place...it's a shame that Saren made a facility here. I crouch down by the water to see if there are any seashells anywhere to take back. Something about them is just fascinating to me. As I was quietly look down at the sand, my ears caught something that peaked my interest. Apparently, Saren had been taking his time by creating a cure for the genophage. Whenever there would be an army of Krogan and are led by a Turian madman, you know there was trouble. I look over to see that the conversation was made by Captain Kirrahe and Commander Shepard, with Kaiden and Ashley behind her. That was the information that was needed because we now know what we would be up against. They all decided that it is best that they would plant a bomb at the facility to prevent the distribution of that everywhere. Wrex, however, had a different opinion on the matter. He preferred to have the facility still run because he felt that his race had suffered enough of the genophage. Angrily, he walked away from them and pull out his shotgun, shooting at the water in order to suppress that rage. Wanting to not get caught up in it, I slowly get up and went for the tent.

Once I get inside, I see Liara pacing around a bit. I walk over to her with a concern look. "Liara? Is something wrong?" I ask. Liara stops moving and looks at me, looking nervous. "(Y/N)? I-I'm sorry...it's...I'm really worried about the Commander." She tells me. I think I know where this is going. "I-Is this about Wrex?" I ask. Liara nods and looks outside. I turn around and see that the Commander is speaking with Wrex, probably trying to calm him down. "I understand that Wrex is really upset about this but...I feel that this heavy emotion he has weighing on him and his judgement would jeopardize our mission. Who knows what could happen?" She says in a worried tone. I look over at her and rub my neck. "Y-Yeah...as long as everything is civil..." But if my timing could not be any worse, I hear Wrex outside saying, "If you cannot give me a better reason for this than to destroy the hopes of my people, then I am done with you!" followed by a sound of his shotgun. I quickly look over and see that Wrex and Shepard are aiming their weapons at each other. This cannot be good. Liara gasps at the situation and grabs onto my arm. My face heats up and slowly look over. "W-What do we do, (Y/N)? It seems impossible to get Wrex to stand down." She says.

I thought about it hard but really quickly. "Liara...I need you to let go." I say. Liara moves away. "R-Right...I-I'm sorry...I-It's just- w-where are you going?" I hear her say as I walk out of the tent in a really fast pace towards the two. "Wrex!" I called out before I stand a bit behind him. "You don't need to do this!" I say. Wrex, still aiming his shotgun at Shepard, growled and turn his head to me. "Stay out of this, soft human. This does not concern you." He says. "But this is not the way!" I say, clenching my fists. "You have every right to feel this way. I may never know what it is like what your people have dealt with, but what Saren is doing is not the future of the Krogan race! Saren turned those Krogan into tools for war. He doesn't care about them and he probably turn the Krogan into slaves, ready to kill them off when their jobs are done. Is that what you want for them?" Afterwards, Wrex remained silent. He seems deep into thought about what I said. "No...we were tools for the Council once...we were neutered as a way of thanks for dealing with the Rachni. No way Saren will be as generous..." Wrex says. Wrex slowly puts his shotgun away and turns to me. "You're right about this one." He says to me then looks back at Shepard. "I do not like this, but I trust you and your companion here." Shepard nods and put her assault rifle away. "Glad to hear that, Wrex." She says. Wrex begins walking away before stopping. "Just one thing..." He begins saying before looking at her. "When we find Saren...I want his head." He turns his head back around then continues walking.
