Garrus Vakarian: Citadel Security (Currently Being Rewritten)

Chapter 3: Out For Blood

7:15 am
Chora's Den, Lower Wards,
Citadel

Bullets began flying as Garrus, Larsan and the rest of the team dove for cover.

Garrus, Larsan and the other human member of their team Khalid dived away and ran behind two tables kicking them over as makeshift barricades.

The Turian, Decitis grabbed Luhan and pulled him behind a nearby table and replicated Garrus's makeshift barricade. The tables were solid metal and could more then withstand the Vorcha's weapons but if one of the Krogans got close enough their shotguns would tear the table to shreds.

The other Turian Voruns ran behind a wall from one of the booths also made of the same metal.

Carlos just turned and climbed over the bar grabbing multiple bottles of spirits before ducking down behind the counter.

All the while being pursued by bullets

from the five Blood Pack Vorcha and their M-76 Revenant assault rifles which aren't the most accurate guns but make up for it with there large clips and amazingly fast fire rate.

"Get them." Snarled one of the Vorcha who Garrus assumed was the leader. "The boss said no survivors."

Garrus activated his omni-tool and opened a com-link between his squad members. Into it he yelled "Return fire but stay low there guns might not be accurate but its fast and if you stay up too long they're very likely to get a lucky shot."

"Sir ill fire biotics to keep them distracted while you guys shoot." Called Khalid from behind Garrus.

"Switch to alternate ammo types." Said Larsan.

"Yes sir. Switching to armour piercing." Crackled Voruns voice through Garrus's omni-tool.

"Incendiary." Said Decitis.

"I do not have any alternate ammo so I will send out a combat drone." Exclaimed Luhan.

All that was heard from Carlos was a low humming to a tune Garrus didn't know. "Yo lo tengo." he said calmly.

It was then that the real battle began.

Khalid popped out of cover launching a lift on one of the Vorcha whom Voruns and Luhan quickly shot dead.

Two Vorcha took supporting positions crouched just outside the door only to have one shot between the eyes with Garrus's rifle.

It was at that moment a dark red skinned Varren burst the through the door sprinting towards Garrus and the two others behind the sideways table.

It made it to them before they could fire a single shot and in no time it had pinned Khalid and was clawing at his chest, while he held back its jaws mere centimetres from his face.

Larsan levelled his gun at the beasts head and fired just as the Varrens teeth began to break the skin on Khalids neck. Larsan made sure Khalid was okay while Garrus popped up shooting a Vorcha in the shoulder making it screech in pain.

Garrus looked over to see how the others were faring just in time to see a dark blue skinned Varren, slightly larger then the one that had attacked them, jump the barricade and tackle Decitis to the floor.

The beast let out a roar as it wrestled with the Turian. But Descitis didn't fare as well as Khalid as his Varren was bigger and as the others levelled there weapons at it Descitis was overpowered.

Garrus watched as the Varren sunk its teeth into Descitis's neck tearing out a huge chunk before having six bulletts from Luhan and his combat drone unloaded into its skull, killing it instantly.
