Commander's Fate (C&C/Nikke: Goddess of Victory x Male Reader)

Down With The Aliens (GDI Route)

The fifth and final act of the GDI campaign, it should be over soon...or is it?

==================================

Waking up the next morning, Marian was next to me and she was holding on to me. I could only smile and hug her back which made her wrap her arms around me. I then gave her a kiss and she woke up before kissing me back.

Thinking back to how I first met her, she and I have to be so lucky to be sharing this moment. Especially her considering what she's gone through. Well, she's here now in this home of mine. Wherever you are, Ark commander, you can rest easy. I'll always protect and love her.

We got up and shared another embrace before I got dressed. I felt well rested and a little more fit. Maybe last night was enough for me to sleep well and remove a bit of stress. I went downstairs while Marian grabbed her clothes and went back to her shared room.

After making breakfast and serving it to the girls who were all awake, we made our way to Malcolm's office, where he was with Granger and Shifty who were on the screen.

"Morning, Y/N." Malcolm greeted. "While you rested, GDI has been gathering a lot of new intel. General, if you would."

"Commander. It's hard to believe, but all the data seems to indicate that those attacks on our cities, were just a diversion away from the invader's real agenda, building those towers." He replied. "We don't know what they are, but we know they've got to come down before they're finished, and that's where you come in. Shifty?"

"Yes, General." She responded. "The largest tower which is also the closest to completion, is in Italy, where the whole Tiberium mess started over five decades ago."

"It's gonna be tough, Commander, but if you can take down this damn thing, then our hope is that the rest will fall like dominoes. She can fill you in on our strategy as you go."

The general then left, while Shifty had a blush forming on her face. "Umm, Commander? Should we find a way to end this invasion, could you and I go out for dinner one night?"

'Well! That was NOT on my bingo card for today.'

Malcolm frowned. "Shifty..."

"Sorry, sorry. I'd been trying to find a good chance to ask him, but I never got to."

"We'll have to wait and see." I replied. "I'm all for female company, but we can talk about that another time."

"Alright, Commander. I'll keep it in mind."

"I see another beautiful girl has entered the fray." Anis said. "Never thought it would be Shifty."

"Knock it off, Anis." Rapi sighed. "She only asked him to dinner, not a wedding proposal."

Neon hummed. "Oooh, I wonder if it's possible to marry Master."

"Exchanging vows with our Commander?" Marian asked. "That would be the perfect way to secure my happiness forever!"

"But we're already happy together." Alice said. "We love our Commander very much!"

Mihara and Yuni could only blush in silence while Sugar wasn't that interested.

"Anyway!" Malcolm intervened. "You will be departing to Italy soon, it's a red zone so you're going to be vastly open to the tiberium crystals, especially when you get close to the alien tower. Unfortunately, we have no Nikkes available for reinforcements as they'll be on standby, until we hear the results from your mission."

I nodded. "Alright, then it's decided. Time to rock and roll, girls."

The girls smiled and nodded before we left the office to go up to the helipad. We got on a transport that took us all the way to Italy. We soon arrived at what used to be Rome before the ship landed and we got off. Along with us was an MCV and a trio of zone trooper squads.
