I woke up laying on something soft and warm. The first thing I saw was the ceiling of the quin jets medical room. That's just great. I remember jumping through the backdoor to get out of the framework but that's it. I don't ever remember waking up. Until now.
"Everyone needs to stop shouting. Even though Daisy is in a coma she can still feel the tension in the room and hear us shouting," Simmons voice beckoned. Everyone shut up at the mention of my name.
Coma? How long was I in a coma? And why? How come Simmons woke up and not me? I need to ask someone other than myself these questions.
My hand numbly reached for my nose where I could feel the mask on me. Needing answers and not really knowing what I'm doing, I pulled it off.
Machines started going crazy. The beeping immediately got the attention of my team outside the doors as FitzSimmons rushed in and closed the doors to May and Coulson, saying they need room.
Only to see me awake and fine, sitting up in my bed. I could see May and Coulson outside of the glass looking back at me as Simmons checked me over and Fitz shut the machines up. I felt fine as I kept telling Simmons but she wouldn't listen as she just kept checking on me.
"How long was I in a coma," I asked to no one in particular. Fitz waved May and Coulson in seeing no threat to my health and everyone sat down, save Simmons still fretting over me.
"Not long, only a few days," Fitz started,"exactly four. And we don't know why."
His accent was thick and I could feel the tension between all of us due to the framework. FitzSimmons seemed to be affected the most as the tension between them could be cut with a knife.
"After I jumped through the backdoor I woke up on the quin jet with Mays team. I tried to wake you up and you did, just not your mind. Your body and mind were out of the framework I just don't understand why you wouldn't wake up,"Jemma told me."Until now." I felt shy all the sudden. Everyone was watching me, worried. It reminded me of when I was shot by Quinn.
"Well, I'm peachy keen now. So where did Aida have you hidden?" I asked.
Coulson shifted slightly in his seat before answering. "She hid us on a submarine. Of all places, a submarine. I hate them. When we woke up Aida was already in a human body and she teleported away. I don't know how she could do that, but she did." The air was warm from us all being in such a tight space.
"Well," I started,"I think I'm gonna get changed then you can tell me your game plan and end game for Aida. Plus, I'm starving." Everyone took that as their cue to leave but I caught Mays arm on the way out. "May, where's Mack? I know he didn't come out of the framework, I just- I couldn't convince him to leave Hope. But where's his body?" We met eyes.
"I had my team take him to a small place to stay low for a while. They're waiting for my orders otherwise." I let her words sink in. I couldn't convince Mack to come out of the framework and now I would have apologize to Yo-Yo for leaving him behind. May seemed to read my thoughts."Daisy, do not blame yourself for that. Mack chose of his own free will to stay behind in the framework and take care of his little girl. Honestly, when I was in the framework I don't know why I jumped into the backdoor. Something just felt right about it. Maybe Mack didn't feel the same thing, but there's nothing we can do now. He is still in there and maybe after we kill Aida we can go back for him and change his mind."
I thanked May and got changed. Ten minutes later I was walking through the all to familiar halls of the quin jet on my way to the cockpit. When I arrived freshly showered and changed into some jeans and a hoodie everyone was in there waiting for me. Coulson tossed me a bottle of water and began talking.
"Now I came up with a game plan for taking down Aida but we don't know who we can trust so we're gonna have to get some help. And I plotted a course to a place where we can get help. Real help. Its a pretty nice place based on the pictures," he paused for a second and a few pictures popped up on the screen in front of all us. My mouth dropped and so did everyone else's as we realized who Coulson's help was. On the screen sat a picture taken in New York of Avengers Tower. "Maybe it's time we told my old pals I'm alive and see if they're willing to help." And he threw another picture up of the Avengers all sitting on a couch in the living room all out of uniform. I've seen the Avengers in uniform but this is the first time I've seen them without. And the person that got my attention was the beach blond super soldier. It was almost if he was smiling at me.
Oh dear, this is gonna be hard.
