Preparation For War

4 Months Later Current Year(2176) 10 years before the Reaper war

It was finally time for John to fulfill his promise to the Quarians who once they saw his military had no doubt that he could take back their homeworld. John had 5k ships which included the ships of Thanos and Ronin and was manned by the Aris. In his droid fleet, he had 10k ships, the Rachni who had grown in size had well over 30k ships, and could even have more since their reproduction rate was way too high though they were a Hive Mind so it was to be expected.

The Quarians at first were hesitant when they had learned that John had a droid race under him which made up most of their military and even though John reassured them they were hesitant to trust but unlike their creations, John's creations showed absolute Loyalty to Him and never showed signs of betrayal and even talked like normal sentient people would but with the almost extinction of their race there would still be resentment towards machines but for now, they would trust the machines since they trust John.

John had already scouted the Quarian homeworld Rannoch and discovered that the Geth have around 10-15 thousand ships defending the planet while there was another 5-10 thousand stationed on the Gas Giant Charoum a Geth controlled planet.

The Alliance in an attempt to improve relations with the Quarians had also offered a fleet of there's numbering 1k to help take back the Quarian Homeworld which improved the Quarian's opinion of the Humans.

A/N: I know that fleets in the Mass Effect verse were relatively small in the Game so I made them a reasonable size for all Races

They could only send 1k ships since they were having problems with the Batarians who have recently left the Citadel because the Council won't stop the Humans from expanding into their claimed territory.

At this time Jane Shepard had been called back to participate in the battle and would be stationed on Johns's fleet. It would seem that the System Alliance really wants to make some allies since they are allied to no one right now and have no real power in the Citadel and has to follow their rules and they are unable to protect Human interests.

John was on Chasca preparing to leave for Rannoch while a separate fleet led by Thanos will go to Charoum and attack the Geth their which would destroy both of their fleets at once though what John had planned was to hopefully get the Geth back on the side of the Quarians as they would be a great military asset for them in the future though with the Quarian and Geth relations it would for sure be hard to convince the Quarians.

In John's personal fleet of 5k, he had 100 dreadnaughts, 1000 Cruisers, 2000 StrikeCruisers, 900 Battleships, 300 Support ships, and 700 Carriers/troop Transports which all added up to 5k ships and with the combined might of the Rachni military, he will surely win this battle by a landslide.

During the Battle John will have Ronin watched since even though he agreed to serve under him Ronin was still prone to betray as he remembered what happened in the movie Guardians of The galaxy where once Ronin got the infinity stone instead of giving it to Thanos as he agreed he took it for himself using the power to attack earth and attempt to destroy the Nova Empire but was stopped by the Guardians of The Galaxy.

The reason Ronan betrayed Thanos was that he found out the true power of the Stone and used it for himself to attack the Xandar only to be stopped and killed by the Guardians of the Galaxy. But John gave Ronan power using his ability Power Distribution which Ronan was satisfied with and there were not any Xandarians in the Galaxy to kill so the chances that Ronan would betray him was low but he still had a backup plan just in case as he had Nebula secretly watch Ronans moves and if he shows any sign of betraying John gave her the power and strength the eliminate him though it probably won't be necessary.

John has also been watching from movement from Turian forces just in case they decided to attack while he was not there but even if they did he would know since he had people who specialized in Shadow movement to watch the Various Turian Leaders movements and alert him if they decide to do anything against him.

Systems Aliance

"With this, we can have some allies in the Galaxy and we won't be pushed around by the Council and all the other races of the Galaxy and Humanity can finally show its strength," Said Anderson

"Indeed and once we have an Alliance with both the Imperium and the Quarians we can expand more into the Attican Traverse and the Terminus Systems though the Imperium has also been doing the same expanding to various planets just as us which has enticed some of the higher-ups on how they should proceed but they decided to allow them so as to not ruin relations," Said the Human Councilor. Though in reality, the Higher-ups were just afraid of what would happen should they get in the imperium way since how fast they develop is unreal

"Commander Shepard has proved herself and even gained the respect of the Emperor and his trusts and slowly we are improving relations with the Quarians that's why we offered them a fleet to help with taking back their homeworld which would get us on their good side," said Anderson

Anderson had finished talking with the Alliance Councilor before he ended the call and returned to his duties.

Asari Homeworld Thessia

A group of matriarchs which are the most powerful and influential people of the Asari Government was gathered all to discuss something related to the Turians.

Matriarch Aethyta, Matriarch Benezia, and Matriarch Dilinaga were all gathered in one room currently discussing the Turians who have been showing strange movements with their military and they predicted that it must be because of this new race and its Empire the Imperium that is known to house a large group of sentient droids. After hours of discussion, they had decided to watch the situation and not intervene since the Imperium was not part of the Council and was a small race so they didn't think that the Turians would lose but only if they knew that the LEader of this nation wasn't normal than they would have changed their thoughts.
