Donny bougea vite et tranquillement. Il a repéré quelques soldats, mais il ne les a pas fiancés et a attendu qu'ils passent inaperçus. Il pouvait voir des signes de combat avec des marques de brûlure et du sang éclaboussant les couloirs et le sol. En supposant que lui et son équipage étaient les seuls humains ici (probablement depuis qu'il a remarqué certains humains qu'il n'a pas reconnus dans la vidéo) il a pensé que son équipe avait pris cette direction. Ses pensées s'attardaient sur rien d'autre que d'aller dans son équipe : il ne pouvait pas se permettre de penser ce qui était arrivé à Alexander. Ce qui aurait pu facilement lui arriver.
"Peut-être que c'est Dong, fini. Je suis en route pour vos positions. Où? "
D'une voix tranquille qui a dit à Donny qu'ils essayaient de se cacher. « Nous avons pris deux chambres, un placard et ce qui semble être une entrée de service. Rendez-vous avec nous pour plus d'info. À vous."
Donny hoche la tête bien qu'il soit seul et continue à partir. Il savait qu'il allait dans la bonne direction quand il y avait moins d'éclaboussures et de marques pour guider les ennemis potentiels à leur emplacement. Même si c'était loin des docks, il vaudrait mieux bunker quelque part où ils ne les trouveraient pas plutôt alors approcher trop près de leur objectif et compromettre leur sécurité. Donny tenait toujours son arme prête, au cas où il rencontrerait des ennemis inattendus mais veillait à ne pas tirer accidentellement sur son allié.
Bientôt, il trouva l'emplacement de ses alliés et fit connaître sa présence à la radio. Ils avaient fermé les portes, un geste intelligent, espérons qu'aucun des ennemis ne penserait à les fouiller ou à les faire sauter. "Peut-être que c'est Dong, je suis hors de chez toi." La porte s'ouvrit et Donny se déplaça rapidement à l'intérieur. Il y vit Seraph, Yoaso et Eléanore assis près du mur. Et bien qu'elle soit une civvie, Eleanore avait un pistolet dans ses mains. "Quelle est la situation?"
Sa tête cousue Seraph a élevé son Omnitool, créant une mise en page 3d des docks. "Il y a une trentaine d'ennemis qui gardent les docks. 10 turians, 10 vorchas, 4 krogans, 6 humains et/ou asari. La plupart des touristes sont postés près des navires et les vorchas patrouillent dans la région. Trois krogans dans la baie, l'un près de l'entrée, l'autre qui conduit les vorchas, l'un qui est avec les turians et l'autre exploitant le terminal pour dépasser les écluses. Le reste patrouille à l'intérieur et à l'extérieur de la baie d'amarrage. Heureusement, notre navire est toujours opérationnel et n'a pas été compromis. Nous avons également remarqué deux vaisseaux de classe Intercepteur, tous deux de marque Alliance. Il y a d'autres navires situés autour des docks aériens qui ne seront pas des obstacles à l'évasion, mais peuvent fournir une couverture pour nous et l'ennemi."
Seraph regarda Donny. Il y avait une certaine tristesse dans ses yeux, celle que Donny avait. Ni l'un ni l'autre ne s'attendait ou ne voulait que cela se produise. Respirant profondément, elle lui a dit leur plan. Avant... Avant que Tristan et Henriette ne capturent, ils essayaient de désactiver les écluses menant aux quais. Même si nous arrivons à notre vaisseau, nous ne pouvons pas sortir sans dépasser ces serrures. À l'heure actuelle, ils sont contrôlés par cette console, mais ils savaient aussi que toute invitation de commande pourrait être écrasée par le contrôle maître. On a besoin de quelqu'un pour pirater cette console assez longtemps pour nous sortir de là. Si possible, nous pourrions essayer de trouver quelqu'un capable de piloter ces intercepteurs aussi bien. Sinon, nous devons les désactiver pour nous assurer qu'ils ne sont pas utilisés contre nous. Mais...
En s'éloignant les uns des autres, ils savaient quel était le problème. Entre eux tous, ils avaient la puissance de feu de prendre les vingt gardes s'ils luttaient tactiquement et utilisaient l'élément de surprise. Avec le temps, ils pourraient même fortifier les quais et tenir leur position jusqu'à ce qu'ils puissent sortir une sorte de signal de détresse. Et ils en auraient besoin, parce qu'aucun d'entre eux ne savait comment contourner le système les garder coincés là-bas. Aman avait une certaine expertise sur les machines de sabotage et les véhicules, mais cela était surtout utile contre les ennemis synthétiques. Et ils n'étaient pas sûrs de l'utilité de détruire la console.
"Je... nous devrions attendre. Voilà... Il y en a d'autres qui peuvent aider. Peut-être. Je vous ai déjà informé des Turiens qui sont venus avec moi. Et celui qui est venu avec toi? Euh... "Ruvea?"
"Il a été blessé, mais vivant. Ils se sont fait tirer dans la jambe après avoir pris Steak. Tofu regardait la blessure, s'assurant qu'il est prêt à se battre si le besoin se fait sentir." Le tofu était le nom de code Yoaso, biotique et médical désigné. C'est bon de savoir qu'il est sorti vivant. La tension était élevée, mais c'était la seule option qu'ils avaient. A part l'alliance qui s'envolait pour les sauver, ils ne savaient pas ce qu'ils pouvaient faire d'autre.
"Les autres... devraient arriver bientôt. Oh! C'est pas vrai! Nous avons une chance avec nous, il a réussi à fermer les écluses gardant le navire dedans. Il faut qu'on arrive au vaisseau, qu'on s'envole d'ici. Ça rend les choses plus simples pour nous. Je m'occuperai d'eux. Une fois qu'ils sont là, on peut les remplir sur ce qui se passe. Ça a l'air bien?"
Seraph hurla la tête et mit Donny en route. C'était un peu drôle maintenant qu'il y a pensé. Seraph n'était guère le membre le plus intimidant de l'équipage, mais en supposant qu'elle ne se fiait tout simplement pas à l'information pour lui, peut-être qu'elle s'est intensifiée pour le rôle de leadership. Elle semblait au moins comme le type qui pouvait penser sur ses pieds mieux que Donny le pouvait. Il est retourné dans la salle, veillant à rester caché, en attendant et en regardant les autres. Honnêtement, il ne s'attendait pas à ce qu'aucun d'entre eux vienne. Il leur donnerait une dizaine de minutes. Si personne ne vient avant dix minutes, il supposera qu'ils ne viendront pas, et dira à tout le monde qu'ils sont morts.
Name: Donny "Dong" Yang (Dong was the nickname he was given during training. It's on his dossier now)
Species: Human
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Appearance:

Primary: Storm Shotgun I
Secondary: Kessler Pistol I
Explosive: Cain Trip Mine
Armor: Light Mercenary Armor IV
Supplementary: Military Grade Ariake Omnitool IV
Personal Effects: A tribal knife (Donny calls it "Grandpa's Knife")
Skills and Abilities: Donny is a well trained Vanguard for the System Alliance. He's put a lot of focus on honing his biotic powers, though he is also handy with a shotgun. He has access to Barriers, Biotic Charges, Nova, Pulls, Shockwaves, and keeps a good Fitness. He also makes use of Cyro Ammunition to immobilize his targets. When it comes to hand-to-hand combat Donny is also quite capable, augmenting his strength with his biotic powers as well as utilizing various melee weapons. He has a particular fondness for knives and axes.
Outside of combat however, Donny is a stickler for rules and laws. While he lacks the cunning to bend the laws like a lawyer, he could make for a decent officer of the law if he wasn't prone to acting on his own either. And while he follows the rules well enough, he has the sense and willingness to ignore them when necessity demands, as well as uphold them when he must.
Donny also has various skills in arts and crafts, largely stemming from his hobby developed during college. Donny also has skills playing the saxophone as he was once part of his highschool and college jazz club, though he hasn't really picked up the instrument since he joined Systems Alliance military.
Background: Donny had a legacy to uphold. A fairly minor one, all things considered, but for him and his family it was an important one. His grand father participated in the defense of Earth during the Reaper Wars, becoming one of the many heroes who were willing to lay they lives on the line to defend their home. He served as one of the men who volunteered themselves to stem back the tusk of reaper controlled minions, holding the line long enough not only to survive that nightmarish day, but to see the future that Commander Shepard had made for humanity.
After the war, Donny's grandfather quickly retired due to the massive PTSD he received. But he was able to recover long enough to have children. Donny's father was the youngest of four, and Donny himself the youngest of four children from him. From a young age, Donny's father was proud of his father's accomplishments as a soldier, but his grandfather refused to let his son join the System Alliance or the military. He didn't want his children to face the same thing he did. But even so, Donny's father did his best to uphold his father's legacy. And he did so by joining the Ariake Technology firm, which he was able to do thanks to the extensive network of friends and contacts he made during college. By the time Donny was ten years old, his father had managed to get himself to the position of manager.
The combination of his father's own wealth as well as the accomplishments of his grandfather made sure Donny was born with a silver spoon, but also underneath a huge shadow. Growing up, Donny was never really motivated to "Excel". He did live with the future expectation that he was going to take care of his parents, just as his own father took care of his grandfather and grandmother (In Donny's family, the youngest son takes care of the parents when they are too old to work for themselves), but as far as personal ambitions went, Donny was fairly simple minded. He enjoyed slacking off more than he enjoyed working, even when he only had to work with problems that were, all things considered, easy. He wasn't exactly spoiled, but that didn't mean he wasn't lazy when it came to work. he felt that it was more important to appeal to his family than it was to appeal to his education. But even so, he continued to disappoint.
Growing up Donny lived under the shadow of not only his father and grandfather, but by the rest of his family. His mother was much better at public relations than his own father was; while he could crunch numbers and make sure the deliveries happen on time, his mother was more-or-less leading the commercial and marketing division. Donny's older brother became a doctors who would work as an equal amongst the likes of salarians. His sister became a politician and potential candidate for Prosecutor General. Even Donny's little sister was going to be an aspiring artist, and was already part of a popular video game developer, publisher, and distribution company working as one of their magic graphic designers. As for Donny himself...
Donny lacked any aspiration but to hopefully be able to take care of his parents. Even when he had very little idea of "how" he was going to take care of them, considering that he never even bothered to learn the family business. He had very few accomplishments under his belt that wasn't dwarfed by the achievements of his siblings. His only true saving grace is the fact that out of the four siblings, he has the best relationship with his grandfather. Years after the reaper wars, Donny's grandfather, after the death of his wife and Donny's grandmother, lived the rest of his life making knives, much like the one he used in the reaper war. Donny was interested in his grandfather's hobby and learned much from him, listening to his stories and talking to him about current events. They compared Donny's naive interpretations to his grandfather's wizened experience. It was those time that Donny built the foundation of his childish ambitions. He wanted to become someone like his grandfather; a hero.
But Donny's own father wasn't quite so accepting to this idea. Largely due to the fact that his own grandfather did not allow him to become a soldier, he made Donny go to college to learn how to manage the business with Ariake Technologies. But Donny had no desire to maintain his studies at the college. He barely attended for more than a year before Donny flunked out. His father was enraged and demanded Donny to return to college, but by this point the young boy was now a young man. He had resigned from college to join the System Alliance, using his family's credentials to earn him a place amongst the military. Since than the relationship between Donny and his family had become strained, and he doesn't even know how his grandfather feels about this turn of events. But Donny had only one ambition, and for once, he wanted to feel like he was more than just their "son". He wanted to be great. He wanted to think that he was capable of more than just upholding a legacy, but making one himself.
Training with the System Alliance was certainly harder than college however. Donny was beaten, broken, and tossed aside (metaphorically speaking, but it happened literally a few times as well), but unlike in college Donny had the drive to continue onward. Basic training went by quickly but painfully. During that time he also discovered his latent biotic abilities. When Donny came to the realization of what he was capable of, he jumped on the opportunity without any forethought of what sort of pain he was going through. Since he lacked the conditioning from youth, the lessons he underwent to hone his biotic abilities were harsh and brutal, along with the standard course for his regular military training. It was not BAaT, but with how much damage Donny was doing to himself one would think they were bringing the practice back. But no, Donny simply allowed himself to suffer the pain and torment of his training to achieve his childhood ambition. His naive and thoughtless desire to become some concept of a "hero". But first he had to become a soldier.
Donny spent a good portion of his "Military Career" training, largely due to his lack of previous experience with his latent biotic powers. From the age 19 to 23, he spent drilling and honing his biotic abilities with military efficiency. He made very few friends, and those who did either dropped out or graduated due to having more innate abilities than he did. But he did not allow himself to quit. He felt that he had given up the only thing he had already. He had thrown away the honor of his family to pursue this desire of his, and he couldn't bare the thought of returning to them defeated. He'd sooner take his own life than to betray his ambitions. Within four years he was deemed competent enough to be allowed to officially serve as a System Alliance soldier.
It was a great moment for Donny, one of many he hopes to have in his life. To him, the door to being the hero he imagined that his grandfather had become was finally open to him. It was a road full of risk, failure, and disappointment. But for once Donny did not dwell on those negative aspects. He only saw what he could accomplish, and vowed to make good use of what he was now able to do.
It wasn't long before Donny was given his first assignment, and a fairly big one at that. He was to accompany a of soldiers with a System Alliance to provide military assets, along with protecting one of their diplomats on a new colony. Donny had never left Earth before, and now he was going to travel to the far reaches of the universe to find a new planet where he could potentially live. It was a big step for him. Big enough that, for once in the last four years, he contacted his family.
The first person he spoke to was his older brother. They had a fairly decent understanding of one another, brotherhood and all, which allowed him to get into contact with his sisters. His elder sister worried greatly for him due to her knowledge of the colony and warned Donny not to hurt their relationship with the alien colonist. His little sister was annoyingly casual about it, asking him to bring back souvenirs. But she also expressed the desire for him to come home, which he was able to pick up amongst her requests. Next was his mother, whom he barely was able to speak to due to the tears she was practically shedding through the phone. But she wanted to tell Donny that she forgave him for quitting college and that she would still love him regardless of what path in life he chose. His father was "Unavailable" at the time, though he didn't pry further to discover if he simply didn't want to talk to him or not. And than there was his grandfather.
Donny would have three days before he would board the ship that would take him to the new colony. Within those three days he visited his grandfather while the rest of the family was out. There he and Donny had a talk about the path he was on. His grandfather explained to him the horrors he faced before he even fought the Reapers. His time against a horde of krogan shocktroopers, the horrors of the heretic geth and their reaper-empowered servants, even the slaughter that happened when a thresher maw of all things made planetside right on top of an outpost he was stationed at. He warned Donny against joining the System Alliance and told him that he could pull some strings to get Donny to at least stay on Earth. But Donny told his grandfather that he was going to go. He was going to keep the promise he made to himself to be a hero, and he can't be one here. He had to go out into the world and be part of that change, not just wish and support it with words and ideals. His grandfather solemnly accepted this, knowing that his grandson was dead set. So he gave Donny something that would help him: his combat knife he used to great effect during the Reaper War. It was not a standard issue design, but rather made by Donny's own grandfather using military grade composite metals. A blade worthy of a the Spectres.
But that wasn't the only gift Donny would receive. The last day before he would leave to the new colony his father had delivered him a gift: An advanced suit of armor and an Omnitool, both from Ariake Technologies. There was no letter or message with them aside that it came form his father, but Donny understood why he gave him these things. He wanted his son to be alive. He wanted him to come home one day. Despite not being standard issue, Donny donned his father's armor and Omnitool, gathered his equipment, and took his first step off Earth and into the brave new world.
