Eden Prime Continued...

There was a very loud and powerful groaning of metal that sounded all around Kaidan and Shepard. Both of them looked up in time to so a large object with red smoke billowing out from the bottom as it rose higher and higher in the sky. There was red electricity dancing off of the outer shell. The shape of the object reminded Shepard of an upside-down trilobite with three, maybe four, legs coming off of the "head" of the trilobite and roughly six legs running along the sides of it; three per side.

"What is that? Off in the distance," Kaidan exclaimed.

"It's a...it's a ship!" Shepard answered in shock and wonder. "Look at the size of it." Now she knew what that claw was in Eden Prime's last transmission.

Then, there was silence as the abnormally large ship became a large dot, and then a spec in the sky before it was completely gone; all in the blink of an eye.

"Do any fleets, alien or ours, have ships that size? Other than the geth, that is," Kaidan asked.

"Not that I know of."

"Then we're fucked if we end up going toe to toe with that thing," he replied, the awe was drifting from his voice and becoming bitter.

"That's putting our situation mildly." Shepard's statement was cold. Any normal soldier would be freaking the fuck out. Her N7 training kicked in, though, and she just shut it all down. "We need to keep moving, Lieutenant."

"Right, Commander. I was just—"

"OH GOD! THEY'RE BREAKING THROUGH!" a voice screamed.

They both just reacted, training replacing thought and decisions, training just taking over all of their internal systems. Shepard ripped her sniper rifle off of her back, Kaidan unholstered his pistol, and both of them rushed towards the direction the scream had come from.

A shed surrounded by broken crates, some of them actually lit on fire, was off to their right. That's where the scream had come from. That was also where a great number of husks were. More specifically, the shed was crawling with the dark grey and blue bastards as they tried to get to the people that were inside. Also, there were two geth standing off to the left of the shed on the stairs leading to the main area of the spaceport. Those geth looked as if they were supervising the husks progress...and were standing by in case they missed someone.

Not one more dies! Shepard growled. "Don't let them get into the shed!" she ordered Kaidan, glancing over at him before her biotics flared to life.

For the split second that she looked at him, Kaidan was lost in Shepard's eyes as they glowed bluer with her dark energy. It wasn't just her eyes, though. Her whole body glowed, and he was just lost in the...beauty. The sudden release of the energy that boiled up around her was what drew him back to reality.

Five or so of the husks were suddenly sucked from the shed they were crawling on and levitated in the air by singularity, being drawn into the blue orb that was the dark energy's core. Blue biotics rippled across them, burning brighter than the blue in the tech they seemed to be infused with.

"Alenko, warp it!" Shepard ordered.

"Warp what?"

"The singularity!" she hollered back.

"But that would—!"

Gunfire ripped between them and Kaidan ducked for cover. Shepard sidestepped a little out of the way before she searched for the geth through her scope.

"Just do it, Lieutenant! Quit holding back!"

She was completely out in the open. Both of the geth could see her perfectly and were firing at her, their shots slamming against her shields. A few of the husks' attention was also taken away from the shed and they were shambling towards her as well. She was drawing everything towards her and away from the shed. Kaidan longed to pull her into cover, but she gave him an order. His own biotics flared and he quickly did as she asked.

Blue dark energy shot out in all directions as that combination of biotics produced explosive results. The husks that were caught in Shepard's singularity were completely ripped to shreds, as were the husks that were nearby.

At the same instant: "Shields at 50%" Shepard's hardsuit VI chimed in her earpiece. I know!she growled. The geth were moving too much. She couldn't keep them in her sights long enough to get any good shots off. More of the enemies' gunfire crashed against her shields, and she could see the decrease in percentage of shields she had in her eyepiece. She could also see a containment cell. Too much time out in the open, she chided herself and fired.

The resulting explosion knocked one of the geth into a nearby fire. Sirens and metallic screaming ensued as the thing roasted.

Shepard looked through the scope and without it in an attempt to find and pinpoint the remaining geth trooper.

Kaidan was dealing with the husks that didn't get caught in the singularity field or the explosion caused by their combined biotics. The damn things could move fast for shambling corpses, and one of the husks managed to get past him and was now charging towards Shepard. It let out an inhumane howl as it drew closer to her. She didn't hear it coming, though. With all the gunfire and the growls of the other husks that weren't near her, Shepard was deaf to the oncoming husk; and Kaidan was too preoccupied with the husks that were attacking him to do anything about it as much as he wanted to.

"Shepard!" he yelled, trying to get her attention and draw it towards the husk.

Shepard's shields were still taking a beating from the remaining geth. Fuck! she hissed, turning to face the approaching husk. It was way too close for comfort, especially for a sniper; and she had no time to switch to her trusty shotgun. Fuck, fuck... She didn't even have time to properly aim. Shepard just leveled her gun and fired.

The husk was blown back with a gaping hole in its chest before it finally hit the ground limply.

"Shields are gone," The VI chimed calmly as her shields become a visible blue field before they died out.

Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck! Shepard bolted to the side, the trooper's gunfire still following her, trying to hit its mark. Dropping into a crouch, she sighted down her scope pulled the trigger. Two rounds had reached her position just as she fired her sniper rifle. One of them flew by her head, inches away from her skin. The other crashed into her shoulder, making its way through her armor and embedding itself in her flesh before all traces of it were gone as the effects of being shot through a mass effect field in the gun it was fired from wore off.

The geth trooper collapsed onto the ground with a missing head as Shepard stood from her crouch, wincing from the pain that was starting to resonate from her shoulder. She buried it, though; much like what she did with any emotions and exhaustion she might be feeling. She acknowledged that she was wounded but otherwise ignored it. "Show no weakness. Give out pain," was a motto she had heard from an old soldier and had taken a liking to.

Show no weakness... she ordered herself as she moved over to where Kaidan stood. Don't let him know you're wounded.

Kaidan was surrounded a number of dead husks. His chest rose and fell as he breathed heavily. Using his biotics at the rate he was, was starting to cause some strain on him.

"You alright, Alenko?" Shepard breathed.

"I'm definitely going to have some serious bruises when I wake up tomorrow," he said lightheartedly, adrenaline washing away whatever fear the situation may have caused. Shepard chuckled softly. Otherwise, I'm good. You?"

"Likewise," she lied. In fact, her hardsuit's VI was administrating some medi-gel to ease the pain in her shoulder as she walked. "Come one. Let's check on the people in the shed."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Gah!" Shepard threw her arms into the air. "Stop calling me that!" she exclaimed playfully.

"Sorry, Commander," Kaidan responded, his own voice softening and reaching a similar playful tone that Shepard was using. "Old habits die hard."

"Sure," Shepard sighed, looking over at him. A small smile was brightening her fierce features as the two of the closed the gap between themselves and the shed.

Kaidan wanted to continue to talk freely and tease Shepard, but instinct and necessity wouldn't let him. They had a job to do, and when this was all over, maybe then they would have some time to talk candidly and teasingly with one another. "Looks like another security lock," he noted.

"Shouldn't be a problem," Shepard replied, her cold tone that she always had reasserting itself into her voice and personality. "Stay out here and keep your eyes open for anything while I talk to them. I don't want any surprises." Shepard fastened her sniper rifle onto her back once more before she began to hack the door.

"Aye, aye."

The door slid open and Shepard walked in. Kaidan glanced back in time to see her disappear before the door closed shut again.

Well, the silence is nice, and a good thing, I guess, Kaidan thought as he stood, pistol drawn, on guard. It at least means the geth aren't executing any more civilians and that Gunnery Chief Williams hasn't encountered any trouble...It could also mean that the geth aren't shooting because they ran out of live targets...

Smoke rose from nearby fires, clogging the air with its thick texture. The smell of things burning tarnished everything, and not even the wind seemed to want to break cover and blow over the battle scarred colony. Muffled voices drifted over to where Kaidan stood. It was too distorted for words to be made out, but he could definitely hear Shepard's apathetic voice that was sometimes carefully inflected as she spoke with the civilians.

Finally, she emerged from the shed with four civilians in toe.

"Alright, head straight to the science camp," Shepard explained. "Another soldier is already there with two scientists that survived. It's safer there than here."

"We'll do that," one of the men piped up before they all made their way back the way Kaidan and Shepard had just come down from. They looked like frightened animals as the slinked across the terrain.

Shepard's eyes narrowed a bit as she tried to figure out whether or not she should radio ahead and let Ashley know about the civilians. She decided that it was important enough for her to destroy Anderson's radio silence wish. "Williams," she said, had pressed firmly to her earpiece as she spoke. "You've got a small group of civilians heading to your position. Look before you shoot."

"Roger that, Commander," Ashley responded, keeping what they said short, sweet, and vague as hell. "Checking targets. Won't shoot any friendlies."

As soon as the radio silence had been broken, it quickly won dominion over the soldier once more. Kaidan gave Shepard a nod that he was ready to go on and both of them continued to the spaceport.


There was a body that wasn't one of the geth Shepard shot.

"Commander," Kaidan said quietly, "It's Nihlus."

"Shit..." she hissed, kneeling down to inspect the body. "One round right through the head. Point blank, too."

"There's no way a Spectre would let some noisy machine sneak up on him and shoot him point blank in the head," Kaidan said.

"Agreed. That means that either some of the geth have cloaking devices, or—"

The crates that were directly in front of them started to wobble. Kaidan leveled his pistol where he assumed one of the geth or a husk would appear. Rising to her feet quickly, Shepard had grabbed her shotgun and was aiming in a similar fashion and in the same vicinity as Kaidan. Both of them were ready pull the trigger, but a voice called out from the crates before they pulled them.

"Wait! Wait! Wait! Don't shoot! Don't shoot! I'm one of you! I'm human!" came a man's voice as he stepped out of his hiding spot.

"Sneaking up on us like that's a good way to get shot," Dumbass, Shepard said almost casually as she lowered her weapon.

"Look, I—I'm sorry. I was hiding. From those creatures," he apologized. Panic was worn on his face as he looked nervously looked back and forth, searching for any of the creatures he was hiding from.

"Noted." Shepard looked over at Kaidan who still had he weapon drawn and gave him a nod.

Instantly, he relaxed his stance and lowered his pistol. It didn't make him any less anxious. There was more to Nihlus' death than just a hole in his head. Something wasn't right. Shepard has to see it too. Or at least feel it. She mentioned a few times about have some kind of bad feeling about something, and so far what she mention always turns out true. Unwillingly, he began to pace back and forth behind Shepard.

"My name's Powell," the dock worker said. "I saw what happened to the turian," he motioned to Nihlus' body on the ground. "The other one shot him."

"Other one?" The clear pitch of surprise in that question couldn't be hidden. Not even by Shepard.

"Yeah," Powell answered meekly. "The other one got here first," he added, glancing around as if speaking about him would conjure him up. "He was waiting here when your friend showed up. He called him Saren," he then looked pleadingly at Shepard. "I think they knew each other." All he got was a nod from her, so he continued. "Your friend seemed to relax. He let his guard down...and Saren killed him. Shot him right in the back." Head, Shepard corrected him quietly. Powell's voice got higher as he spoke. It sounded as if he couldn't believe what he was saying. "I'm lucky he didn't see me behind the crates."

"Anything else?"

"That turian, Saren, he hoped on one of the cargo trains and headed over to the other platform."

"And...let me guess..." Shepard sighed, annoyed, "that just so happens to be where the Prothean beacon was moved."

"Yeah," Powell answered anxiously. "I knew that thing was trouble. Everything's gone to hell since it's been dug up. First, that damn mother ship showed up. Then, the attack. They killed everyone! Everyone! If I hadn't hid behind the crates, I'd be dead too!"

Kaidan continued to pace back and forth. Things had gotten steadily worse as soon as they were dropped off. Now it looked as if they were sliding down the shear drop that was 'shit going wrong' and getting closer and closer to going completely FUBAR (fucked up beyond all recognition) on this mission. Why the hell was there another turian here? Was he working with the geth? He asked as the speed of his pacing increased. Joker was right. Spectres are trouble. Suddenly, Kaidan stopped. He needed to pay attention to what was going on. He needed to focus, to make sure that they weren't caught off guard. So, he settled on trying to pay attention to what Shepard was speaking to Powell about.

"So, these crates saved your life," she said, a disbelieving tone creeping into her voice. "Why didn't anyone else try to hide behind them?"

"They...didn't stand a chance," guilt seeped into his words. "And I was...I was already behind the crates when the attack started.

"Wait..." Kaidan interrupted. "You were already behind them?"

Powell looked over at Kaidan as if he had just appeared out of nowhere. "Sometimes I need to take a nap to get through my shifts," Powell's head hung low and there was more guilt. "I hid behind the crates so that I could grab 40 winks worth of sleep."

"That's pretty lucky," Shepard responded with a harsh tone. "Your laziness saved your life while everyone else died."

"I don't—I don't want to think about it," he whimpered.

"And those grenades you swiped from the military shipments could have saved some lives as well," she continued, her voice dropping lower and lower as she spoke.

"What are you-?"

"Cole told me about the smuggling ring you're running."

Powell balked, taking a step back. "S-So?" He stammered. "Everything's gone. Everyone's dead. It doesn't matter anymore."

"Maybe not, but we'll take anything that's useful."

"Alright...here," he said, quickly scuttling over to one side and handing them the grenades Shepard had called him out on having.

"A lot of marines died here today," she hissed threateningly. "You should find a way to make it up to them."

"I-I will."

"The science camp over on that hill is this safest place right now. One of the marines that was stationed here is protecting the other civilians that survived as well." Shepard added, her voice rising back up to a normalish tone. "It's in your best interest to get there."

"Thank you," Powell breathed before he got out from his hiding spot and ran off.

"Are you going to give Williams a heads up?" Kaidan asked once Powell had passed them.

"We don't have time from smugglers," she said before they too ran off. They, however, were making their way in the opposite direction towards the cargo train, taking out the geth and geth drones that were stationed in their way.


A fucking bomb! Are you fucking kidding me! Shepard screamed in her head as she quickly ran forward to disable it. Her omni-tool glowed as she hurriedly plucked at wires and deactivated protocols and programs on the explosive device. Sweat began to trickle down from her forehead as she worked. A lot was riding on her shoulders as she pounded away.

It only took her twenty seconds to deactivate the one, and Kaidan was stressed out from just watching her deactivate the bomb. It was crazily dangerous for her to try to disarm the damn thing. He didn't doubt that she could do it but still... If she crosses the wrong wire, makes one miscalculation... He didn't want to think about it. His head was already spinning from using his biotics; thinking about what could happen wasn't helping him.

"They're demolition charges," she yelled at Kaidan.

"The geth must have planted them!"

Shepard didn't have time for words. This bomb was disarmed but that left three more and she had just over four minutes to take care of the rest. Using her omni-tool, she had luckily managed to get the locations of the other charges. Now it was a simple matter of getting to them and disarming them in time before this place was sky high.

Bolting up the ramp, gunfire ripped around her as she ran. 'Simple matter' my ass! she hissed as she sprang forward. She could now see the second one. "Alenko!" she cried through their personal comm. link. "Cover me while I disarm them!"

She slid into cover next to the next charge and set to work. Buttons were pressed, wires were stripped and crossed, and Shepard worked dizzyingly fast as she rushed to finish the job before it was too late. The difficult part was that she had to rush without making mistakes. Come on, come on, come on!

Through their comm. link, Shepard heard Kaidan grunt in pain. She paused for half a second. "Alenko, are you alright?"

"Just a graze. I'm fine." More gunfire followed his answer as he did his best to keep the geth off of the Commander.

Another one of the charges was deactivated and there was one only a few meters ahead of her position. Shepard risked not drawing a weapon and peaked around her cover to see if she could move forward.

There were three geth blocking her path. Thank God for grenades, she though cynically as she pulled out one, throwing it with her left.

A surge of pain flooded her shoulder and darkened her vision for a split second. She had completely forgotten about her shoulder wound thanks to the wonders of medi-gel. However, the wound didn't stop her when she got it, so she sure as hell wasn't going to let it stop her now. She hit the detonation button. Looking up, she saw Kaidan nod at her to move forward. The new cleared path helped her immensely when it came to getting to the third charge.

This one was a bit harder to deactivate and she could feel her heart pounding erratically. Her hands started trembling, so she had to take a few seconds to collect herself and normalize her breathing before she could continue. Keep calm, she ordered herself.

Meanwhile, Kaidan was having difficulty taking out the geth that were ahead of them and were no doubt guarding the last demolition charge. They were starting to get closer, and although he was already exhausted, he had no choice but to throw them back with biotics.

Their situation was getting worse and worse as seconds progressed. Shepard could here Kaidan's labored breathing. He couldn't take much more of this, but she couldn't do anything. She needed to get this charge deactivated, and it had been modified in some way. It was different from the others, more resistant to her persistent hacking. But it was like poking and prodding a huge crack in the wall. Enough force and it'll eventually fall down.

Suddenly, the lights flickered and died on the device. Three down. One to go.

Now she could see why Kaidan was having difficulty killing the remaining geth. They were on the wrong side of where you bottleneck your enemies. There was a key flaw in their enemies thinking, though. They valued cover almost as much as Shepard, which is to say, not at all in certain situations. This is where Shepard's ingenuity with her own biotics became extremely helpful.

This part of the platform was covered in metal grates on the floor. Running out from cover and into the center to make sure she could get all the geth, she ripped off two of the larger sections of metal grates and made them vertical. She then slammed them together. It took her two seconds to turn the geth into diced tomatoes and she didn't even get hit. She also didn't let the victory slow her down as she ran for the other demolition charge that was at the far end. She did, however, get startled when one of the white geth appeared from behind the pillar the demolition charge was also behind.

Without even consciously thinking about it, she used her biotics to pull it into the air before she crouched down next to the last charge.

Kaidan's pistol fired off four times before all the geth in this area were dead. He then slowly came to stand beside Shepard as she furiously worked on the last charge.

Finally, the strife with the demolition charges was done as the fourth, and final, one was deactivated.

Shepard's frame relaxed immensely. She had a lot of built up tension from the pressure of the charges. Now that it was released, her limbs felt like jelly. Her shoulder was still a bit sore, a dull throb of pain coming from it, but otherwise, she was unscratched. Dropping to her knees from her crouch, Shepard let out a very loud and relieved sigh. "Drinks are on me when we get off Eden Prime," she said, her voice shaking a little from the adrenaline.

Kaidan could only laugh and nod, too tired to form words. He did, however, hold out a hand for Shepard to help her up. She looked up at him and gave him a small smile of gratitude as she took his hand and he pulled her up. It didn't reach her eyes, he thought. Her smile didn't melt her icy eyes.

"Come one," she sighed. "We still need to secure that beacon."

"I'm still right behind you, Commander," he replied.

"I'm surprised. Someone with sense would've turned tail and ran with the amount of shit that goes wrong around me."

"Are you making fun of me, ma'am?" he asked teasingly as they walked.

"Nope," she laughed. "Just pointing out that you're kind of stubborn like me."


There were a few more geth and husks near the beacon, but a few shots from Shepard's shotgun, and they were all annihilated. An eerie silence then settled on the spaceport once all the hostiles were neutralized in the area. What made the eerie quiet worse was that it seemed to expand to the rest of the colony. But it didn't stop there. It felt like the entire planet, all of Eden Prime, was mourning the destruction while it licked its wounds.

All this death for some stupid artifact...It better be fucking worth it... Shepard thought bitterly as s he moved to the railing, giving the Prothean beacon a wide birth. "Holy shit!" she breathed as she looked out at the scene spread before her.

Kaidan jogged over, careful not to get too close to the beacon just as Shepard had, to see what she was looking at. His jaw dropped as he saw what Shepard was staring wide-eyed at. "My god!" he exclaimed breathlessly. "It looks like a bomb went off."

A perfect circle was formed in the fields. Smoke rose lazily from it in multiple areas. The ground was scorched black. Cracks of red split the surface of the black disk where fires still burned. They were looking complete destruction. Total annihilation. Nothing down there lived any longer.

"This must have been where that mother ship landed," Shepard noted sourly.

"Yeah," Kaidan agreed. "Well, I think we can finally radio back to the Normandy and tell them that the beacon is secure." Kaidan forced his eyes away from the catastrophic destruction and onto Shepard.

"Right..." she said. Then, she cast a glance in the beacon's direction. Kaidan could practically see her analysis of it in her blue eyes as she figured out this anomaly. She looked...cute. The way she was biting her bottom lip as she was thinking added to that. It made her look much younger and not so much like the hardened soldier she was. That, and the slightly perplexed look on her face that softened her strong features. The bangs that were still refusing restraint hung loosely in her face. Some of them did manage to stay behind her ears after the hundredth time she tucked them back there. A little bit of ash marred her face, but it gave her a wild, exotic look.

"I highly doubt they would have moved this thing if it was glowing green like that before," she observed aloud.

Kaidan very nearly asked what on earth she was talking about he was so caught up in his own thoughts. A quick shake of his head disbanded them as he tried to observe what she was seeing. "Maybe something activated it," he offered.

"That's not a good thing," she replied. "Oh well, not our headache."

"It's kind of amazing though." Shepard looked at Kaidan with a questioning tilt of her head. "Actual working Prothean technology."

"Hmm..." Shepard backed up before turning away from the beacon, her had pressed to her ear. "Normandy, the beacon is secure," she radioed in. "Requesting evac for Lieutenant Alenko and myself along with the evac for a Gunnery Chief Ashley Williams and several civilians located at the science team's camp."

Kaidan didn't hear the rest of what Shepard said to either Joker or Captain Anderson as he carefully approached the beacon. The glowing green aura surrounding it was enticing. He had heard about the Archives on Mars, like every soldier, but he had never seen them before. The fact that he was just a meter or so away from a discovery that could be as important for humanity as their last one was incredible.

"Roger Normandy. Standing by," Shepard answered coldly.

Lowering her hand to her side, Shepard looked on either side of her, expecting to see Kaidan. When she didn't, she assumed that he was still staring at the beacon in awe of its "awesome power." Her assumption didn't put out the fire that was the nagging feeling of something bad about to happen.

Suddenly, the beacon's aura increased in sized as it flared out towards Kaidan. An invisible force began to drag him closer and closer to the device. No amount of struggling on his end could even loosen its hold. A high pitch noise, like a scream only metallic, then started drilling into his head, tearing up his ears.

Kaidan wasn't the only one to feel the effects of the beacon, however. Shepard also felt a slight pull from it, but it could be compared to the tug of an underpowered vacuum. What really tipped her off was the scream emanating from behind her. She whipped around and shock rippled through her as she quickly figured out what was happening. She could scarcely believe what she was seeing, and even if she didn't fully, a new emotion immediately replaced her surprise and drover her forward. Sprinting towards Kaidan, the blue eyes that had widened momentarily were now narrowed in determination. She wrapped an arm around Kaidan and quickly threw him to the side and took his place. It was something she would always do. Her life meant nothing to her. If it could be given up to save another, the question of whether or not she would never had to be voiced. That was the case now. Kaidan hadn't asked for her to switch places with him. She simply had because of her need to protect. Failing so many had shaped her this way.

Shepard was yanked into the air like a rag doll by the same invisible force that had been dragging Kaidan. The metallic screaming grew louder, but soon that noise was replaced by another. Voices calling out, wails of despair, cries of pain, they all sounded in her ears. Images of fire, blood, and tearing flesh flashed before her eyes. Machines, synthetics, were the main thing that she saw. They were slaughtering people. A combination of skin and wires burned into her mind. Feelings were thrust on her, too. The main one being pain. Physical and emotional pain. The pain of watching your species being ripped to shreds by an enemy far more advanced and deadly than you own. The pain of losing your planet to machines. The pain of losing all of the people you cared about and the slight relief that came from knowing that there was no way you would hold out much longer than they had.

Fires burned, raging through the images. Ashes fell like snow, covering everything in thick gray blankets. Blood pooled in the streets, welling up around the mangled corpses that lay in silent streets, crumbling buildings, and trampled fields. Death was everywhere.

It was genocide.

~~.0.~~

No one is saved! The age of humanity is ended! Soon, only ruin and corpses will remain!

I saw him! The Prophet. Leader of the enemy. He was here, before the attack.

Is it madness to see the future? To see destruction rushing towards us? To understand there is no escape? No hope? No, I am not mad. I am the only sane one left!

You can't stop it! No one can stop it! Night is falling. The darkness of eternity.


AN: Another very long chapter. You know, I didn't realize how much dialogue was in this mission until I was writing it. It's not like you need to get to the beacon or anything, go ahead and chat it up with everyone you find! But I digress. Anyways, please inform me of any mistakes (grammar, spelling, confusion) so that I might fix it and make it better.

:) feedback is appreciated.

And here is the rest of it. It was really supposed to be one chapter, but....Deviantart said, "No!"

I really enjoyed the fic so far!! You have a good understanding of your characters and it shows in your writing. Hopefully you can find time to finish because I would love to see how the story goes if Shepard was an L2. Thanks for all of your hard work!
