Crap , I Was Rifted

(Alright System give me the info, well the results of what happened.)

System: Cerebus Node applied: Bonus to Strength +1 and Willpower +2. Weapon, Armor, Tech and Reverse Engineering bonus applied. The attribute applied to the Const.i.tution.

Cla.s.s Specific Pull 1x, recommend for an Infiltrator, it is needed. Points have been awarded and added to the total.

(How the h.e.l.l do I get out of this prison? I don"t like it here and f.u.c.king health is c.r.a.p. Why is there nothing but corrupt officers here?) Second time in prison and the kicker it wasn"t for something I did or an actual crime, this was getting as bad as me pa.s.sing out.

System: You will be able to leave here in a few hours. About your health, while in the hospital you were cured of the poison that crippled your body and ate away at your biotic abilities. With your training from the Lin-Kuei and Lifeshaper, your body will begin to adapt and become stronger. The section off officers that arrested you are corrupt. Due to the Garrus Vakarian incident, your case is under review, charges will need to be more deeply pressing or concerning to keep you locked up.

(Well d.a.m.n System that"s just peachy. Can I use System points to buy a way out?)

System: You can buy ways from the store or items to get you out, but it would be a waste of points. It is recommended you do not do that, it"s a path of waste that is hard to break away from.

(Sure...no promises but I won"t right now. This is a good time for you to explain the store function.)

System: The Store can be used to purchase all manners of equipment, aesthetics, medical, companions, quest items, bodies, transformations, genetics, and System specific functions.

Criteria can be used for specific searches for regular purchases and for pull"s that are one. However for the later for each criterion that is used ... the quality of the individual is decreases the same for other pull"s as well.

(Why is that? Does the System just want random or something?)

System: The pull"s are denizens from different games as you call them. Most are at either at the end of there ropes are close to death. Some also just don"t like what happened to them and there loved ones. A User allows them to reshape the outcome of what happened and change for the better. Some just want to experience what can happen in a different world. The Core of the System gains the information to better each new User and every world that is born as well as making the New World"s that are created more viable. If the games that are being pulled are from ones you have experienced, the individuals will gain power from recognizing the leader who lead them giving a boost in understanding and growth as well.

(Well d.a.m.n. that is good to know. I feel like I am forgetting something but it can"t be too important. Time to use some of these pulls I have, waste not want not right. System use Cla.s.s Specific Pull 1x for Infiltrator you said right.) Couldn"t help feeling b.u.mmed about Tali, wonder if I could have recruited her it would have been sweet. (Wait System is she dead? Is Tali dead? Is Chari ok?) I could feel my heart clenching my emotions went out of control real quick.

System: Wisdom Check Auto Pa.s.sed due to Meditation

My thoughts became tranquil right after. (What the h.e.l.l was that. I can feel my heart slowing down back to normal. My thoughts went right back to what pull I received. Tali and Chari well being went to the back of my mind during this. All my worry was in the back of my mind while the new wonder I was gonna receive was in the front.) I felt relieved that I still cared but more happy about the ability to prioritize now.

System: Pull commencing for Infiltrator.. searching with criteria.. adding the bonus from Cla.s.s Specific Pull 1x.. Final Fantasy realm X-2 locked due to ma.s.s casualties. Narrowing down to influence from User. A survivor has been detected.. match for cla.s.s found... commencing to open channel for dialogue.. link established. User best of luck.

(Wait what the h.e.l.l happened here. Who the h.e.l.l am I talking to?) d.a.m.n it System you could explain if I was gonna be the one doing the talking beforehand.

????: h.e.l.lo!? d.a.m.n, answer me! We are dying help a woman out here.

(Hey there umm Mrs. so what"s the problem you have there? I can help maybe. Don"t know the situation just yet. So feel me in. Are you the only person left? ) Me and the System are gonna have to have a talk about all these women it keeps introducing me to. Did I ask the right questions?

????: First of all, it"s miss never had time to get married. Or a date for that matter. This is not what we need to be talking about. We are getting overrun by sin sp.a.w.n. All the crusaders are dead me and a few soldiers are all that are left. I don"t have time for a b.u.t.t load of questions that d.a.m.n G.o.ddess said you could help me. All I have to do is serve you, right? That is better than death. I kick a.s.s for you steal what you need stolen and sneak in where needed. That I can do no problem. Also, you help save my world easy peasy.

(Umm.) The system dropped the ball on this one I can"t just save her and her world. Not with the strength, or mind, I have on that matter. ( Listen I am not gonna lie to you I can help you maybe but that is in the future down the road. As I am now I most likely would get us both killed. I don"t have that many resources or personnel at my disposal so yeah...the choice is yours.)

????: So you are saying you will try, that is good enough for me. The G.o.ddess said something along those lines as well. If you would have said something different I would have chopped your nards off the youngster. I agree Boss man let"s do whatever you gotta do.

(How about you don"t cut those off I wanna have children. You know threating your boss that way is a bad way to get fired.) Who just threatens to cut off someone"s nards. Who the h.e.l.l can this old woman be? (System we have come to an agreement do what you have to do.

System: Extracting pull.. restructuring her body. making optional for Ma.s.s Effect universe. Magic has been adapted to biotics and body. Pa.s.sing on info of current world, Will notify when ready. Disconnecting link.

(Well that was something else. So System or should I call you G.o.ddess instead? Whats" the deal with the world she is from.? I understand it"s Final Fantasy X-2 but why is there an overrun of sin p.a.w.n? Thought it was manageable to a point they would die out or would be killed out.) I never beat that game all the way I don"t know the full ending but only what I read. That doesn"t make sense.

System: Either is fine, for they are both who and what I am. The world she is from experienced a cataclysmic event. Its world has heavily been influenced and the events of the first game still happened, however, the residents were killed in much higher numbers that they almost became extinct. During the two year interval to the other half, the sin sp.a.w.n became more dangerous and volatile. It also leads to the resurrection of Sin also known as Jecht as he was able to take a humanoid form and infect the residents turning them all into monster"s as well or creatures like him. With you agreeing to help The System is now able to help that world. You will be sent to the first game to help in the future helping as needed or influencing for the most part. However, that is for the future, for now, you have work to do here.

(Well s.h.i.t, I guess I need to step my game up it seems. System how can I get stronger? Also, why am I in here in this cell?) Going to Final Fantasy X sounds kool, wonder who I will meet or where I will start I don"t wanna get crushed by a giant Sin tsunami like Tidus.

System: Continue this mediation it is allowing your neural network to advance. As well as advancing your LinKuei powers. Browse the shop or the bargain bin for strength.

(Give me the bargain bin list since I need to save system points.) What to buy I wonder I was getting excited till my meditation kicked in relaxing me making mind tranquil.

Hour"s later I found some things I was gonna purchase.

System: Get ready you are getting ready to leave. Your new companion has made it as well.

(That"s good news. Done shopping I think this would do maybe I should rethink this?)

Cart List: High-Level Pull 1x Used On Power"s Category

250- Digimon World 3 points on a bargain bin purchase Power Pack. Digital Terminal included. Spend loyalty points as needed.

100-Growlanser Generations Ring weapon {sealed}

100- Fire Emblem points spent on swordsman {myrmidon} cla.s.s

15- Medical potion x5 medigel x5

(Seems like a good setup a purchase from most groups and a few points spent anyway. Done buying System apply what you can without creating a problem.)

System: High-Level Pull - power category Pull commencing... Street Fighter Alpha 2..searching match found Soul Power greatly boost Lin Kuei abilities.. warning corruption due to renegade soul fragments mutating and adapting. Lin Kuei power resisting mutation stalemate reached...half Soul Power and half Pyscho Power awarded. Intelligence +1 Wisdom +1 from Soul Power Strength +1 Consitution +1 from Pyscho Power. Bonus to Charism1 for having both sides of a power.

(Well those stats are definitely what I need.) at that time a C-sec officer was outside my cell typing away at the door. The officer paused and looked at me questioningly. He looked me up and down and threw a pair of clothes at me.

System: Digimon World 3 Digimon have been placed in inventory. Power Pack included three corrupted digis. Digital Terminal can bond with Omni-Tool or with Cerebus Node. Spent loyalty point on Dark Relemon inside digi-egg. Other two Digimon are too damaged to be used recommend placing them in Digital Terminal for long healing and restoration. Grownlanser ring in inventory. Fire Emblem abilities applied +1 Dexterity.

"System will they be ok? What happened to them?" Dammit, what the h.e.l.l happened? This is f.u.c.king horse s.h.i.t I haven"t even met them and there are problems.

System: The Digimon you received was from a destroyed world. They were abandoned by tamers who failed to stop the world"s destruction. They have been recovered and placed in The System store waiting on to be used again. They are weak due to the long time spent in the store. And weakened even more from the time spent in the bargain bin. Very few buy from the bargain bin since it contains damaged goods as most say. The System cannot provide for everything in existence before you begin to yell in righteous indignation. There is a need for check and balances and currency to be spent. I do not like it any better than you do.

"f.u.c.king d.a.m.n it all!"

"Get dress your people are here to get you," the officer stepped back as he said that, hand on a heavy pistol. He seemed scared or shaken at least.

I reached for my clothes then it hit me why he was scared. My Biotics were fully active, circling around me slowly brushing over my wounds healing the surface area right before my ideas. My health was not going up so maybe it was just sealing them all up. Test that have to be done later. I put the clothes on as soon as I can and walk out my cell. It would be smart turning off my biotics at this point.

A few minutes later and I make out to see Slipp and Chari as well as two others. One man and one female.

Looking at the man it feels like I have known him a good portion of my life. Then observe activates the info pours in. His name is Alistair he is the companion I pulled from final fantasy tactics. His face is revealed he looks like a typical squire from the game but with a little more defintion and slightly longer hair. Dark blue instead of the typical brown or black couldn"t really tell. The more I observed the more info came in. I knew him from Ma.s.s Effect as well he was one of the kids who sided with me on the streets of earth for survival. That is interesting, to say the least. But how?

System: Alistair is a mercenary a common person from final fantasy tactics with no known history to you. Each of the people there has a life. For a bad term, he is not a special character just generic with The System he has a chance at changing life back there. It is also why he asked for your help during the pull to save his village and has given you all his loyalty. Combined with you being the guided hand for him and the other mercenaries along with Ramza you have his trust.

Made my approach over to Allistair and greeted him like a lost brother. Well minus the hugging at least and a good handshake does just as well. "Alistair well met." The man took my handshake well with a smile. Then his face tensed up like he was wary about what to say. "We can talk later don"t worry about it ok." had to do my best to rea.s.sure the man. He took it well enough and stepped back.

Alistair +5

"Glad you are ok boss." He looked at me sternly after saying this, wonder what happened.

"Yeah, boss glad you are ok did you have fun in prison hehe." Said the woman next to him playfully. Already new the info about her before using observe to make sure but still, she didn"t have that age to her voice like before. Still couldn"t believe she was in front of me, glad she had more clothes on than she did in the game. She was also older maybe 23 or so. Looking into her was a bad idea. Her outward looks where cheerful but locking eyes with her combined with what observe started to show me she went through. It was brutal to put it mildly. A serious Riku I don"t know how to handle that at all. I was pulled from my stupor by her next words. "Boss it"s rude to s.e.xually hara.s.s your employees you know, I know I am gorgeous but still don"t stare," she said this playfully while she jumped around me.

"Sorry beautiful I"ll try to keep that from happening to often, no promises ok?" I gave her a nod and look over to Chari. "Glad you are ok." Looked her up and down she was still the same as before Couldn"t help "sighing" in relief. "Yeah, I am glad I didn"t get you into to much trouble or did I with the Quarian I ask you to help?"

Chari +10 Slipp +3 Rikku+1

"I am good rookie, no I guess you deserved to be called by your name now. Good work Azul. Heard you were able to hold your own against a high-level operative and not get crippled." Her tone was lighter it seemed less standoffish at least. "Try not to get put in the hospital any time soon though we have work to do and the ship is almost fully ready. Also, the captain said you are responsible for the crew you acquired and the pay they received. " She looked over at her Omni-tool after saying that and looked up waving goodbye leaving us with no orders. " Enjoy your free time I have stuff to do." We were barely able to hear her over the crowd.

"So Slipp still need help or am I too late?" Hopefully, she wasn"t still p.i.s.sed at me.

"You are too late. Do you still need to a guide around the Citadel or are you gonna get your friends to show you around." She definitely seemed a little miffed still when she said this.

"Show me around Slipp I don"t know if they have anything else left to do. So it"s a good time for them to wrap loose ends before we leave." I gesture over to Alistair and Riku for their input.

"I need a tour around the place," said Riku.

"I only know where the shops are so a tour would be most helpful," said Alistair.

"Well, we are in your care Slipp Show us around the Citadel." Maybe I can figure out what is going on as we travel.

"No problem let"s go," said Slipp as she leads us through the Citadel. I never had a chance to ask any questions as Rikku asked most of them me and Alistair just tagged along nodding and grunting along the way. It lasted for about four hour"s till we stopped for dinner.

Slipp and Riku ate some veggies. Me and Alistair ate up on some burgers with artificial bacon. Riku had about three helping of a Caesar salad she ate everything on her plate. And I mean everything.

When it was time to go I order a double of everything to go. As we were walking I was approached by an Asari in pink.

"Excuse me my mistress would like to speak with you, can I have a moment of your time," her every word came out like honey her eyes never broke contact with my own. Before I could answer someone made the decision for me.

"He would glad meet with your Mistress," said Slipp in a tone that left no room for argument.

"Follow me," said Pinky.

As we followed her I grabbed Slipp by the arm "what the f.u.c.k Slipp why do you want us to go with her, you answering doesn"t bother me as much as you just volunteering me to follow this lady."

"You are to Biotically charged and from what I can feel you have gotten stronger. You remember how your head was messed up, it"s fixed now well she can help you spiritually. Now let go!" She was concerned but there was something else at play here. "Plus I can get my own answers about you as well I need to know," she mumbled.

"What did she need to know, this was getting weird real quick." I follow pinky into the high-cla.s.s district, this area seemed familiar. Doesn"t Shepard meet an Asari here?
