So, I recently re-watched the classic 80′s movie Ladyhawk, and as I sat there, I thought to myself (as one does), what would a Mass Effect crossover with this film look like?

As I talked with @savbakk later and she asked me what my favorite scene from the movie was, I realized that I had to write at least this one scene, the transformation, in sharkarian AU style. So please have this snippet:

The last rays of the sinking sun fall over his face and he feels the change begin. He registers the transformation dimly, at first,
still caged in the mind of a hawk. But as the feathers wilt away into silver
plating and his eyes become his own once more, he realizes he’s not alone on
this bed of Spruce branches.

Turning onto his opposite side, he catches in the faint glow
of twilight the silhouette of one whom he holds above all else; Shepard. His Shepard. His beautiful Jane. Her
features are muted as the change takes her, but she’s still the most breathtaking, radiant
woman Garrus has ever seen. Seized with the need to touch her, Garrus reaches
out a three fingered hand. He’s still groggy, his movements slow even as his
heart and mind race at the speed of light.

She reaches back, mouth parted, eyes frantic, and just when
it seems that they will touch, fingers and claws interlaced in an imperfect
union all their own… she’s gone. In her place is the beautiful, red furred wolf
with eyes the color of evergreens. His loyal nighttime companion. His Shepard.
His Jane. But not.

He feels more than hears his cry of anguish as she leaps out
of the shallow bed dug into the snow and trots off into the luminous moonscape, never looking back.
As he collapses back into himself, into the body he knows, he hears the mournful
cry of a wolf.
