![]() “Shit!” Kaidan swore and watched from cover of a pile of crates as the superheated clouds dissipated around the ship and revealed something he hadn’t seen in over two years. “Well, it isn’t Cerberus.” He muttered as the ship that destroyed the Normandy landed on Horizon. The colonists that were fleeing were now standing frozen in stasis made Kaidan’s stomach churn with dread. He didn’t need to be caught up by those things and become helpless. Dashing from the cover, Kaidan erected his biotic barrier and went to the spaceport. The communications tower was there and the building that housed the terminals lay on the far side. A message needed to be sent, even if it was an old S.O.S.Ī swarm zoomed around a corner and tried to tag Kaidan but he threw them away from him as he pumped his legs, as fast they would take him. His target was in sight and as he skidded to the door of the building, Kaidan saw the first wave of aliens landing on the ground, carrying some pods. He didn’t wait to see what they did with those things as he sealed the door to the building and locked himself in. Resting his forehead against the door, Kaidan took a deep breath.

She hoped Mordin’s countermeasure worked. Rounding the first corner, Mira noticed the husk lying on the ground immediately. It was similar to the ones found on Eden Prime but different. They weren’t changed humans from the colony. The Collectors brought their own husks? A soft swearing from Garrus caught her attention and saw what he was looking at. As Mira walked over, the smell emanating from the pod hit her and made her scrunch her nose. But what was inside it made her stomach drop. One of the colonists was frozen in stasis inside, alive but unable to move or communicate. Anger welled up in her, blue energy flickering around her fingers.
