Prologue

I sat in the hospital chair staring at my unconscious brother. Shepard came through she still loves him it's easy to see. But I just wanted him to wake up since his implants were 'rattled' I heard the door open and looked over to see James I threw a weak smile his way.

"Hey." I said my voice cracking as tears threatened to spill. James rushed foreward and pulled me into a hug. I knew he wasn't the type to do that.

"shhhh. everything is gonna be okay." and in that moment I believed him. I forgot about Kaiden, the reapers and everything the only thing that mattered in that moment was me and him in the room.
