Mass Effect: 2-3: The First Drell Spectre!

(Embassies, Citadel)

There was a Crisis on the Citadel a Group of Extremists had taken a Dozen Diplomats Hostage, Including the Turian and Asari Councillors. This would be one of the rare occasions that C-Sec Brass and the Spectres would be on the same page. But they have a valued and unknown asset in the form of Thrane Krios, He is Thane Krios Nephew, and is a Personal Friend to the Executor, but more than that he is a Member of C-Sec's Investigation Divison. And he has disobeyed orders to Put these Extremists To rest, with a Peaceful Resolution In mind.

(Hostage Place)

As he took up his Tactical Cloak and used his Biotic's to dampen his Movements Sounds, he Came to the Councilor's Side. ''Councilors, my name is Thrane Krios, I'm with the C-Sec Investigation Divison, I will attempt to end this peacefully.'' He whispers to The Two Councilors, and steps away. ''Alright We've Secured the councillors Commander, we have Taken every precaution to ensure there are no unwelcome Surprises. ''I wouldn't be so sure about that.'' Says Thrane as he de-cloaks. ''Who are you? How'd you get in here?'' Asks one of the Lieutenant's. ''Relax I come in Peace, there's a Pistol at my Side I am going to place it down and kick it away, I just want to talk.'' Says Thrane as he Removes his Weapons Thermal Clip and kicks both away in separate directions.

''Stand down men, He may be a Drell who broke through our countermeasures like they were mere tissue paper, but he clearly means what he says.'' Says the Lead Extremist as the others do as he says. ''Talk then.'' He says. ''Why would you take these People Hostage? You Haven't harmed them, so that means your after more than just a bit of Attention. So why?'' Asks Thrane. ''We are all that Remains of a Colony that was sanctioned and funded by the Council, but we were victimised time after time, and the Council never helped, we want reparations, not just for us, but for other people who have suffered like us. And if We don't get what we deserve then we will kill everyone here, starting with the councillors.'' Says the Leader. ''And what then? The moment they die, You lose your best chance at Compensation, your best chance to Get Concessions. If you kill the Turian and Asari Councillors, no one will side with you, but if you release them and the other hostages, then you gain a degree of understanding, and that can used to make things better. Which do you prefer?'' Argues Thrane.

''Your right, This is not the way to go about this, Stand down men, it's over, we've crossed the line.'' Says the Leader as he discards his weapons. The others reluctantly do so as well. ''I can't promise freedom, but I will talk to my superiors about Leniency, you have my Word.'' Says Thrane as he leads the Extremists out ahead of the hostages.
