the Mako roared at top speed down the bunker's tunnel network. Jane had the accelerator floored as they made their way toward where the Conduit entrance was located.
After filling in the rest of the team about what they encountered with Vigil. Everyone was more anxious to put Saren down for good. The idea of the Citadel being a giant mass relay had left them in a state of shock and awe. But knowing what was at stake had them ready for anything.
Kaine sat in the turret seat, preparing to fire at anything. Suddenly, the sound of gunfire snapped him out of his thoughts and turned the turret to fire at oncoming geth.
"Jane, no matter what don't stop!" he said targeting another group of Geth and blowing them apart.
"Wasn't intending to." replied the Commander as she kept the gas pedal firmly on the floor. Pushing the rover to its limits as they fishtailed around turns and curves in the tunnel network.
They barely missed several shots fired at them from an Armature that was off to the side. A second stood in the centre of the path, but Jane just kept going as it slammed into the front of the Mako before going under it as they kept going.
"We're taking some bad damage. Barriers down to 80%" said Garrus going over the readings. Kaine then shouted from his seat, "reroute the power to the shields from the navigation and any other unneeded parts." Kaine said as he fired again.
"How the hell will we know where we're going?" asked the Turian as the navigation system went down.
"Easy, follow the path ahead," said Jane as they turned another corner. Avoiding incoming enemy fire.
They spun around another corner only to nearly run right into a Colossus that had waited for them. Jane slammed on the brakes and hit the reverse just in time to avoid a blast from its main gun. Kaine turned the turret only to hear Shepard. "No time to fight, we have to go now!" she shouted gunning the accelerator again.
"Everyone hang on to something!" Garrus yelled into the troop compartment. Everyone locked in their harnesses and grabbed emergency handles as the Commander slammed the Mako into one of the large Geth's legs.
The synthetic toppled over onto the ground, but not before getting a shot off that struck the top of the rover dead on.
"Shields have been cut down to 60%! We can't take too many hits like that!" said Garrus as they went around the crippled Colossus. After blowing through several more roadblocks that was in their way. The squad found themselves on top of a large incline that lead down to a wide space where a small mass relay stuck up out of the ground like an odd statue.
"That must be the Conduit! It's incredible!" said Liara as they all saw it. Kaine however scowled, "wouldn't say that." he whispered as he turned the turret around.
Jane squeezed the steering wheel. "Alright...here we go."

Unknown to the team. the Geth fleet came out of the mass relay close to the Citadel. Sovereign was right behind them as they began to make their way toward the station. They launched a powerful salvo of rounds that ripped through multiple ships in the Citadel Fleet.
The Commander of the Destiny Ascension stumbled as the ship took a hit before getting on the comms. "Activate the defences! Seal the station!"
