Shepard winced as she heard a voice call out to her through the smoke. She wasn't sure if it was from the pain in one side or the frustration at herself for crashing the Normandy close enough to people that they were here before she even had time to evacuate the ship. She hoped to make her exit first; it was the only small advantage she'd have if Zaibach managed to follow her to the Normandy's crash site.
Plans began to stir in Shepard's head as she moved through the fog, hands held up as if in surrender. If it was Zaibach, should she surrender or put up a fight? With her hands up, she looked defenseless, but if she decided last minute surrender wasn't the way to go, she could still use her biotics to take care of things.
"I'm not here to hurt anyone," she said, separated by the hazy smoke that divided her from the voice. It was true; she preferred not to fight unless someone gave her a reason. She hoped that the other person didn't give her a reason to.
