When ME3 ending meets Andromeda

Feeling a lot better, I decide to explore Ark Hyperion by myself. This Ark is wonderful; it has everything people need from merchants to a bar, much better than the Citadel was. On my way to the hangar I spot a pink alien in the distance, oh hell no... 'Hey you, big stupid jellyfish did you follow me even here? I've had enough of your kind back home. (A/N: This one doesn't hate Jaal nor hanar, I really enjoyed Jaal's company during my playthrough) As I'm approaching it, I gulp, shit this isn't a hanar but a race I have never seen.

'Hey dude you're not allowed to insult my best friend, especially if you're the one coming from another galaxy.' A dark skinned young adult says, introducing himself as Liam Kosta. The alien introduces himself as Jaal Ama Darav and says he's angaran. I quickly apologize, stating it was rude of me but explaining that I had had a bad experience with hanar back in the days.

While standing here I ask Liam if he can guide me to the hangar or anyone who can help me arrange a long-range communication. He says their pilot Kallo could stating the Tempest can reach out to many frigates out there but he says he has another probably quicker way but seeing as I'm Commander Shepard I'd probably not like this. I wonder what this is about...

Ashley's POV

So Liara's plan has failed since her so called friend Alec Ryder has died or whatever. Ugh I'm pissed at the universe right now. I'm sure everyone sees me as a failure now, I had this big plan on how to rescue Shepard but it got crushed. As if sensing I'm feeling down, James shows up. 'Hey chica loca why so sappy?' I chuckle 'I'm pissed J', I thought it'd be easy you know but everything is so complicated and I really miss John. I don't even know if he's okay or if he's even alive. Can you imagine if we do all this for them to tell us he's actually dead' I sigh leaning myself against him. James has been an incredible friend in the last past months.

'Commander Williams I know you by now and if your gut says he's out there and so it is. C'mon where's big badass Ash?'

John's POV

On the way to the Tempest I get to know Liam a bit better and he reminds me so much of James, could be his twin from another galaxy. While talking to him, he suggests not going through official channels and doing this on our own else it'll take us ages to reach Normandy. I gotta say I like this guy more and more, a friendship is rapidly growing between us. Somehow he manages to loop Sara in as well, good the more the merrier. What feels like hours later, we finally manage to crack open a communication channel. 'If anybody can hear this in the Milky Way galaxy please respond, this is Commander John Shepard of the Alliance!' I sigh waiting for an answer. I'm so close to reconnect with my crew, my friends, my Ash. I know they made it out alive because Joker's a damn good pilot, the best in the universe and would never risk the crew's safety.

Joker's POV

As I was sleeping I got woken up by a string of beeps I haven't heard in a long time. I wonder if Wrex is playing with the communication channels again. I swear those Krogans... But that's when I hear his voice. Shit did I just dream this? 'Ashley you have to come to the bridge as quickly as possible, you're not going to believe it!' I want to jump up out of joy but refrain myself, I don't want to break any bones now.

Ashley's POV

After Joker's message I all but run up to meet up with him. That's when I hear John's voice. That's all too much for much and I let my brave facade fall. Tears are streaming down my face. 'John? It's Ashley, where the hell are you? Signal's showing you're in an uncharted part of the galaxy.' John tells us he's in the galaxy Liara told us about; Andromeda. EDI tries to plan a route for us even if it almost sounds impossible. I'm restless after this call. I can't believe I'm going to see Shepard again in a few weeks, the one who defeated the Reapers, brought peace to our galaxy, loves me for what I am. I'm going down to engineering, I need to "dance" with James to let my stress out.

John's POV

I can't believe it! It fucking worked, I have to wait approximatively two weeks to see my whole crew again. This feels so far stretched and impossible and yet I make things possible, what's up with me? I can spend those weeks preparing their arrival.

Time skip to Normandy's arrival to Andromeda

It's time, they are beginning their final approach on Meridian. Oh it's been so long and I'm feeling like a kid, eager to jump in their arms to welcome them home. I'm standing in the landing bay as Normandy touches down, the airlock opens and raven black hair rushes up to me, knocking me to the ground. Yeah that's Ashley no doubt. Her lips crashing down on mine, one of the best kisses I've ever shared with her. I think we're going to have our reunion fun tonight and it will be wild, noting the way her hands travel along my chest. She doesn't want to let go. Out of the corner of my left eye I see James grinning wide and winking at me, oh he knows. After a few minutes Ash lets go of my hold letting me hug everyone else. I introduce them to Scott's crew and that's how two families merge into one.

A/N: This is it, I know it's not my best work. But I promised Megan and I had this idea for a long time in my head. Though developing and me lol that's not my strength. If you liked anyway, you know what to do. Love y'all. Don't spread hate towards Ash or Kaidan please nor Scott / Sara. Everyone has their opinions on the characters, I loved Andromeda and playing as Scott.
