Joker chuckled and said "I'm sure that will bethe best 'Oh Asari the pilot wants to talk to you on the bridge, about relations." he then laughed and said "Because asking a girl out while waiting to pee is the best way to do it." he shrugged and said "You changed too commander." he laughed and said "Sorry Geth God that is a sentient machine that is 50,000 years old, better now?"
Kai half laughed at Jack and said "I'm sorry, did I hit your Quarian boyfriend? Jeez you act like I don't get away with it, that is why I am part of Cerbaus, because I am good at killing Xenos, frankly your lucky I didn't kill him." he sounded calm and collected, at least compared to Jack.
"Yeah lets hope." is all Veetor said about getting an infection, he knew that he probably would get one, he never really did before, but he thought he might.
"I would hate to see you kicked off this mission, we really need someone like you." he didn't mention it is because he thought she was kind of cute more than her combat skills.
The Illusive man said "No, in military terms, dismissed." he took a sip of his drink as the hologram turned off. He then sighed, he wished he had Shepard. He then had Joker lay in a course for Omega.
Joker said over the intercom "On route to Omega sir, ETA 5 hours."

Jack laughed,"I'm sure you'll figure something out, but you get to do it on your own. You want to start a relationship, I think it best if you don't have someone else helping out." He snorted at the next thing Joker said,"Ok, on your way to bed, then?" He shrugged,"Not as much as you. At least, not when it comes to relationships, anyway." He then nodded,"Makes me sound a little less insane."
"No, since he's not my boyfriend, but I do stand up for my squad. Well, you won't get away with it here. I'm in charge of the squad, so on behalf of their well being and ability to be fit for missions, I'm telling you to keep your hands off of them. Without them we will fail at this," Jack said to Kai.
Jack didn't say anything else in response to Veetor agreeing that hopefully he didn't get an infection.
Orinia looked at Veetor thoughtfully," Even if he doesn't admit it, I think the illusive man needs us to much to kick us off."
Jack bowed his head to the Illusive man slightly, then, after the hologram finished, he stepped off of the hologram area. He then sighed and muttered,"Why did it have to be Omega?" He didn't care much for Omega, and it made perfect sense. He did like Aria T'loak though.

Kai shook his head and said "Yeah yeah sure, your non human squad, remember who signs the checks. We are pro human." he then walked toward his quarters, given how he left a while ago.
Veetor smiled slightly and said "Hope so." and rubbed his hands together more. He then stuttered "You k-know b-b-because we are the only d-Dextro Amino Acid we should e-eat d-d-dinner together." he was very nervous clearly, kind of intimated by the cute Turian in front of him.
Tela kind of smirked at Jack and said "We could at least hit afterlife, the club there is awesome." she glanced over at Veetor who looked sick, and tilted her head slightly at him, then remembered he talked about getting hurt on Omega. She then smirked and said "I'm sure it will be fine." to basically everyone.
The SR. 2 was on scopes of Omega, there was a docking bay waiting for them. The station was just going about its bussness, with a couple of other Cerbarus ships, they seemed to be exchanging fire with a Batarian Crusier, but other ships didn't seem to pay attention.

"And remember who does all the work around here," Jack said, then decided he was just going to ignore Kai when he could, from now on.
Orinia looked at Veetor with an unreadable expression. After a bit, she said,"Sure, that sounds like a good idea. Though I doubt that us both being Dextro Amino Acid really has anything to do with it," She added, with a slight 'smile'.
"That sounds like a good idea," Jack said to Tela,"I think we should also ask Aria about Mordin." He didn't notice that Veetor looked sick or uncomfortable. "Of course it will," Jack said, sounding confident.
Once they docked on Omega, Jack and Orinia headed out of the ship. "This place may have a good nightclub, but overall, it's kind of a dump," Jack said, looking around. He got the feeling of being watched, and he didn't like it.
Garret was sitting in the shadows when he saw a ship pull up that he'd thought he'd never see again. It was different, bigger, but it was definitely a Normandy. He had heard about their attempts to bring Shepard back from the illusive man, and how they had failed, but he hadn't heard about the new Normandy, since he'd ran away before then. He wondered if any of the old crew were there.

Veetor smiled slightly at Orinia and blushed sounding embarrassed "Your right." managing not to stutter. He then rubbed his hands together more, he realised that he actully asked the cute Turian out.
Tela nodded to what Jack said and said "If you think you can get her to help, sure that sounds great." she then smiled and said "Of course and if not, we are armed, I pity whoever tries to rob us." Veetor still looked scared, but seemed to be slightly better.
Tela and Veetor followed and Veetor said "It is like all the worst things of the Flotila without the community or any of that." he looked around, and saw a Batarian walking toward them, and hid behind Orinia, remembering what happened last time that happened on Omega.
Eluam walked toward the group of people he recognised from reports. He walked toward Jack and said "I am Eluam Ran'perah, officer of the Batarian Hegemony, I believe we can help each other. I wish to help you defeat your enemy that is on the boarder of Batarian space."

Orinia smiled at Veetor. She had a feeling that they would get along well, despite their differences. She was surprised at how fast he had pretty much asked her out, with how shy he was.
"I heard that if you want information on Omega, she's the one to go to," Jack said. He was also interested in meeting Aria. He wondered if she was as 'hot' as other people had said. He was also looking forward to seeing the Asari dancers and possibly getting a drink. Of course, there were more important things at hand. "I pity whoever tries to hurt my squad," He replied.
Jack watched the Batarian carefully. He knew that a lot of Batarians didn't like humans, and at a place like this, he wouldn't put it past one to cause trouble. "Are you talking about the Reapers, or the collectors? Either way, we could use all the help we can get," Jack said.
Orinia just let Veetor hide behind her, and kept her eyes on the Batarian in case he tried anything. Meanwhile everyone still felt like they were being watched, and if anyone paid enough attention, they could see glowing eyes similar to the Illusive Man's in a shadow down the hall, watching them.

Veetor really was thankful for his suit hiding how embarrassed he was, the way he managed to ask her was to convince himself that it was actually because they were both Dextro, now he was super nervous having asked her out.
Tela nodded and said "Though don't fuck with Aria, actually I should probably stay out of sight, my father was kind of hard on the blue suns, and by hard I mean he blew a lot of ships out of the sky." she was also thinking of Asari dancers. She glanced over at Veetor as he said "Except Kai." though it kinda sounded like he wanted to joke.
Eluam tilted his head to the right, he seemed to think he was superior, if you knew Batarian body language. He then said "We have a dreadnought to blow apart the Reapers, we do not fear them like you do. The collectors however, they could attack our colonies like they did yours."
Veetor pointed his shotgun down the hall, he saw glowing eyes and said "O-Orina, look." and tapped her on the neck, given that she wouldn't feel it through the armour on her shoulder.

"I have no reason to 'fuck' with Aria, and I'd rather live, so I'll keep that in mind," Jack said, then shrugged,"If you think you should, then you can stay here." He chuckled quietly at what Veetor said, but otherwise had no response.
Jack frowned when Eluam tilted his head, and crossed his arms,"The Reapers are to be more feared then the Collectors, any day. One dreadnaught won't cut it, believe me. So far the Collectors have only been a threat to human colonies, I don't see why it concerns you."
Orinia looked at the direction of the glowing eyes, then looked at Veetor,"What?" She clearly didn't see the significance of one guy, even if they did have glowing eyes.
Garret pushed himself away from the wall and walked over to the group. He only recognized one person here, which was Jack, and he was wondering what the hell he was doing working for Cerberus. He hoped there was a good reason for it. As he came closer, he overheard the conversation about collectors. So someone was doing something, at least.

Tela shook her head, and said "No no, I think I can help, I just think I shouldn't go in afterlife. Uh bring me a striper would you?" she laughed sort of with a smile.
Eluam thought and said "Well it is highly classified, but lets just say that the Hegemony knows what it will take to take down a Reaper, and I would think that a operational Batarian Reaper could take one down." telling him with plausiblely being able to deny he said anything. He nodded and said "Indeed, but we have our colonies close to yours, how long until they run out of humans and start taking us? I want to stop them before even a single Batarian life is lost."
Veetor looked at Orinia and said "That is cerbarus tech, remember the elusive man's eyes?" he then leveled his shotgun at the man, but was visibly scared, even without seeing his face.

"Alright," Jack said,"I don't know if I can do that. If you want a stripper, I think you're going to have to come in with us," He said, kind of half-jokingly.
"How does it know it will take down a reaper? If you have a reaper that actually works for you, then you shouldn't keep it to yourselves. It could help the Galaxy against the reapers a LOT to have one on our side," He paused, then added,"Not that I actually believe that. Also, I'd think if they wanted more then humans, they would take them already. And....I won't let them run out of humans."
Orinia shrugged,"So? We work for Cerberus, in case you've forgotten," She said. She was wondering what someone from Cerberus was doing here. Then something caught her eye. His cloak was held on with an Alliance pin. Why would a Cerberus member be wearing an alliance pin?
Garret walked up to Veetor and pushed his gun down, so it was pointing at the ground. "Relax, I'm not going to hurt you," He said. His voice sounded filtered, as if he was wearing a mask of some sort. Also, in the shadow of his hood, a faint outline of the mask could be see, but other then his glowing eyes, that was it. "What's this I hear about collectors?"

Eluam maintained his pose and his upper pair of eyes blinked several times before he said "Who said we had it join us? We are simply working to not activate the brain, it has powerful weaponry and shields enough to go toe to toe with any ship in the galaxy and would make the Batarian fleet powerful enough to stop them. Maybe humanity would hand our colonies back to us with that amount of firepower." he then raised eyebrows on both of his right eyes and asked "Are you seriously trying to lose my support? I mean I know people with two eyes are dumb, but that is just wow."
Veetor sounded thoughtful and said "Oh right, we are aren't we? I'm sorry." he squeezed the trigger when his shotgun was pushed down, but the safety was on and it didn't fire. He frowned and looked at the shotgun trying to figure out why it didn't fire, a little clueless about guns. He figured the question was for jack and continued to loom at his gun

"No one," Jack replied. "Hopefully you do manage to not activate the brain. How did you get it?" He looked annoyed when he said something about it would make the Batarian Fleet powerful enough to maybe make Humanity hand then their colonies back. "I doubt it. We've got bigger problems to worry about now, anyway." He sighed and said,"No, I'm not. Why do you say that I am?"
He then looked at Garret, who kind of gave him the creeps, and said,"Well, we're trying to stop the Collectors from stealing more humans," He then paused slightly and asked,"Who are you?"
Garret watched Veetor with one eyebrow raised, which wasn't exactly visible. "I suggest turning the safety off if you want to shoot at anything," He said, narrowing his eyes slightly as he wondered why this guy was working with Jack. He then looked at Jack,"And working for Cerberus?" He asked, his voice showing his clear hate for Cerberus.
Jack nodded,"Yes. Though I wouldn't say 'for'. I prefer to think of it as 'with'. If there was another way, or someone else that would help, I would take it, but everyone else thinks we're full of crap."

Eluam shook his head and said "Well the Hegemony does have some secrets that I won't revel, I simply felt I needed to tell you about the Reaper." he smiled and tilted his head right again and said "Don't worry, we will find a way to get back the worlds without harming any worlds, but our fleet with a Reaper flagship will be the proof that Batarians have the largest military in the galaxy." he shrugged and said "Well you seem to be trying to take away the idea that they would harm the Hegemony so I assume you wouldn't want me to join."
Veetor pressed the safety button and said "That should do it." then watched Jack and the new guy and slowly moved closer to Orinia until they were touching each other. He blushed, and looked kind of embarrassed but was scared of the guy who clearly hated Cerbarus.
Tela watched the new person, both the Batarian and human, and activated biotic fields around herself in case. She looked at how scared Veetor was, but smirked that he huddled up to the Turian girl who was near his age. She thought he might be attracted to her, and maybe even the reverse, she just kind of smirked at it.

"If I'm going to let you be part of this, I need a reason to trust you. No offense. Not many Batarians like Humans, and Cerberus is a Human group, for the most part, so for all I know, this could be a way to get inside and do damage that way," Jack said, frowning. "Good luck with that," He said sarcastically. Having a big fleet meant nothing if they weren't going to use it. Then again, he said they weren't going to harm any worlds, not that they wouldn't harm the people on the worlds. "I was just trying to figure out why you would care. Or why you would think the collectors are a danger to you, when they've only gone after Humans so far."
When Veetor moved closer to her, Orinia didn't really respond. She didn't shove him away, or move away from him, so that was a good sign.
Garret looked at Veetor,"Just don't accidentally shoot someone now that the safety is off." He then looked at Jack,"Then they're are idiots. No matter how much proof you give them, they don't believe you." He remembered when Shepard tried to get the Council to pay attention to Sovereign and the Reapers. They were useless. He sighed quietly, then said,"I would like to help, but don't expect me to be nice to any of the real Cerberus bastards on that ship."
Jack blinked. He wasn't really sure he wanted this guy on the Normandy. He might put the mission in danger with his hate for Cerberus. He was happy that the guy didn't seem to believe that his squad were like, real official Cerberus officers. "Alright...But try to keep your hate to yourself. The last thing we need is to start fighting each other."
"I make no promises," Garret replied, in a rather cold way.

"You people and you blitz is why we hate you. You took over worlds that were Batarian. We were colonising that area for hundreds of years and you just waltz up and take some. That would make humanity angry, well same of the Hegemony." he then shrugged slightly and added "For some reason I think you would agree that harming Cerbarus is not that bad really. You do have my word that I will not try to harm Cerbarus so long as I work for them." he ignored his sarcasm and said "If the collectors do this to your colonies it is only a matter of time until they do it with ours. I'm helping you to help myself and my people."
Veetor shrugged and said "I won't, I don't think I will anyway." he pointed it away from the group just to be safe. He was still scared of Garret but actully kind of figured he might give Kai a taste of his own medicine. When they finished talking he pointed and said "Shouldn't we be looking for the good doctor?" he coincidently pointed at Afterlife club.
