A/N I do not own any of these characters. This is my first fanfic. Don't forget to R&R, I could use the feedback. Anyway, enjoy.
Chapter 1
The ground wouldn't stop shaking, to Skye, it felt like nothing, but she felt pain. Watching Tripp's body fall apart, because of her, has destroyed her. Then she realized, she was the reason he was here, she could of saved him, if she hadn't been so stupid, and hadn't gone into the tunnel, he might still be alive. The shaking stopped, Skye collapsed, she felt her body go limp and darkness over take her eyes.
Coulson and Mack squatted there for what felt like an eternity, In the duck, cover, and hold position. When the shaking stopped, it took awhile for them to regain their balance. "You ok?" Coulson asked Mack. "I think i'm fine, just a bit weary." Mack responded. Coulson glanced over at the walls that were sealed shut. Now some of them were cracking, and one looked like it was about to fall down. "Skye!" they both said together as they slid through one of the cracks. As soon as they entered they saw. Raina, standing over the now-opened Obelisk on the ground, but something wasn't right. There wasn't anything inside of it. "There gone." they heard Raina say. "There GONE!" she screamed louder, making Coulson pull out his I.C.E.R. "Raina, step back from the Obelisk, or I'll shoot." "What was Raina talking about, and what was in the Obelisk?" Raina looked at him, her eyes matching the one's of a tiger. That made Coulson Shoot.
BANG. Raina went down. "Did you?" asked Mack. "Kill her, no." Coulson answered. "Just iced her, we need to get her up. Mack nodded picking her up. "Get back up to May, make sure she's alright, and tell her that it's really you, so she knows you aren't being controlled anymore." Coulson orders Mack. He nods, "Copy that." Mack walks away, Raina in his arms. As soon as he was gone, Coulson ran over to the now unconscious Skye. "Skye?' he asked, not expecting a reply. His wish being granted he picked her, up. "Damn, she's much heavier with my scars," he thought. Then he remembered, Trip? Where was he, did he make it out? Then Coulson looked down.
Lying there was Trips T-Shirt, "What the?" Coulson asked himself. Then he remembered. "Trip must of went in after Skye, how could he be so stupid?" he thought to himself. "Oh god, he can't be dead, please don't be dead Trip." his mind continued to wander, until he remembered he still had Skye in his arms. "Ok Skye, lets go." He took a deep breath and started walking. He made to the rope and found May standing there. "What are you doing here." he asked her. "Came to get you, and Skye, did you really think I would let you carry her up there all by yourself?" she asked pointing to the rope. "You head up, I'll take Skye." she continued. Coulson nodded handing her over to May and started to climb. "Are you sure you don't need any help?" Coulson called down as he huffed his way up the rope. "fine" May gritted back. When they got up, they sat down for a breather. "Where's Trip?" May asked. "I didn't see him down there," Coulson started "but I found a shoe and a t-shirt." he finished. "Does Skye know?" May somehow knew that Trip is dead. She was unconscious when I found her, but she could know." Coulson answered. "Lets head to the Quinjet." May stated.
"We have to go get Fitzsimmons," said Bobbi. She, Hunter, Mack, Coulson and Skye, and May had all caught up to each other. "If Tripp is really dead, they could be stranded." Hunter continued. They were making their way back to the Quinjet, knocking off a Hydra soldier here and there. They had to get the Quinjet in the air before the whole place fell apart, the "earthquake" had shaken things up pretty bad.
When they got to the Quinjet, Coulson laid Skye down on the ground. "We should check for any signs of injuries, the earthquake could of done some damage." Bobbi said to Coulson. "I'll wait until we get Fitzsimmons, she doesn't looked that bruised, if theres anything you want to do, get her something to lay her head on," he replied. Bobbi nodded, grabbing something that looked like a backpack. She gently lift Skye's head and then rested it onto the pack. "get strapped in, take off in 2." May confirmed. Everybody strapped in except for Coulson, who took great care to protect Skye from getting hurt in the take off. When they got in the air, he felt a stir come from Skye. Her eyes slowly opened. When she figured out where she was, she freaked out and jumped into a defensive stance.
"Please, don't touch me, I don't want to hurt you, just stay away, please, just stay away." Skye said, looking worriedly around the small jet. "Skye, you're not going to hurt us, we just need to look at your injuries." Coulson calmly. "No, no, no, I killed him, I killed him and it's all my fault. I killed him." Skye started to sputter. "Skye, who did you think you killed?" he asked, "Trip."
