    Summary

    Sarah was lonely. Trapped in a loveless, abusive relationship. One day she finally had enough and broke free and ran. Now on her own on the Citadel she thought she had no one to turn to when threats started arriving from her ex. She was given a choice to run again or finally learn to protect herself.

    Julian was at the simulation range for target practice and saw the human female several lanes over struggling to learn to use the weapon the human instructor was pushing off on her. He also noticed the way she constantly flinched when the male pressed in too close, so he took it upon himself to step in and help her.

     

    This story takes place in an alternate universe setting, no Reapers. The characters we knew as the crew of the Normandy are just ordinary people in this story. Hope someone likes it.
