Shepard felt disappointed. She hoped that Zeto could give her a little bit more information. She didn´t say anything that Shepard did not already knew. She sighed again, only one Shepard could be angry on was herself. It was only her mistake that they rode blindly into action, but it will be her team who will pay for it.
 “Thinning their numbers would be an obvious choice in an every situation but this, I am afraid. We are here to rescue Miss T´Soni, not to fight the Geth. And Geth are here for same purpose. We are just a minor obstacle. If they kill us, good for them, but their goal is to get the Asari, not us. We don’t have enough time to utilize the hit and run tactic, we must rush to the excavation site and get her before they will.
She waited a while before giving the final order, maybe waiting for opinions of her team, still calculating an outcome of every possible move they could make, but she could think just about one viable thing to do, a very stupid thing. “Let´s keep moving. Be fast, but careful. The road is going to get very bumpy…”

The way led them to a small sort of valley. An excellent spot for a trap, Shepard thought and didn´t forgot to remind her teammates to be careful. If Geth planned to attack them, she would bet they will do it here. The Mako had a little space to manoeuvre and possible Geth platforms would have an easy time lining their shots from heightened place. Shepard just hold her teeth together and hoped that Geth would miss this opportunity to make her life more difficult.
Unfortunately they didn´t. It wasn´t even few moments and she could see the lights of the Geth on the cliffs and feel the first shots that hit the vehicle´s shield. “Bumpy road indeed…” she whispered silently and returned fire.
