The Commander and The Chief (Mass Effect x Halo)

Chapter 1: Old Base of Operations

-=Chapter Begin=-

Relay: Sol Relay

System: Sol

Planet: Pluto

On the planet's surface, an M35 Mako stops in its wheels, in front of a ruined entrance of what seems to be a Bunker, Commander Shepard, Garrus, and Wrex in their spacesuit and hop out of the Mako as they walk up to the sealed doors.

Shepard: "From the looks of it, this base has been left here to rot." he says, Garrus stands at the side of the door and examines the console.

Garrus: "The console's fried, Shepard. Any ideas to open it?" he asks, only to be pushed aside by the Krogan, Wrex.

Wrex: "Stand aside, Turian. This is how a Krogan open sealed doors." he says with a chuckle, as Shepard realizes what Wrex about to do.

Shepard: "Wrex! Wait-" he called out but too late, as Wrex shoots his shotgun and activating shredder rounds.

The door burst opens inwards, only to have the three to be pushed away by the force from the inside of the bunker, releasing its pressure from the inside to the outside space.

Wrex: "Ha Ha Ha... That's fun" he comments, not minding the situation of his squadmates

Garrus lends Shepard a hand and pulled him back up to his feet. Shepard let this incident be pushed aside and leads the way inside the base...

Shepard: "Watch your head, there's a lot of debris floating around here." he said before Wrex got hit by a floating metal piece to his head even if he's wearing a helmet to breathe

Garrus: "Regretting blowing that door, Wrex?" he asks

Wrex: "Well, it's fun at first." he answers

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After walking through the empty corridors of the base, the team entered an empty room and manage to find a still active console but with a weak signal. Shepard walks up to it and began searching for any information in the console.

Garrus: "Find anything useful, Shepard?" he asks, as he examines the dirtied room

Shepard: "Nothing, just some files, most of it are already deleted." he said

Wrex: "They must have left in a hurry if they're that careless. Stupid bitches." he cursed.

Garrus: "Shepard. You need to look at this" he called out. Shepard walks up to Garrus who's looking down at a dirtied table.

Garrus gives a source of light for Shepard to see. Shepard looks down to see a folder already opened by Garrus. With pictures of kids to adults being experimented...

Garrus: "They must have used this base to experiment with their own species? For what purpose?" he commented

Shepard: "SPARTAN project?" he read out from the contents of the file

Suddenly out of nowhere, the light from the console brightens as Wrex's instincts kick in, and aims his shotgun at the console
