Ok, so I know I haven't posted in a while and I'm sorry but i just finished my exams and just finished this story so I thought i'd publish it. And YES there are probably mistakes but ya. And I think you understand why it took me so long to finish this one cause its 32 chapters long and i was juggling a few others at a time.

p.s. In the story, Triplett is still alive. (If i ruined that part of the hsow for you, my bad.)

Ok, here it is.

(hope to hear your comments ;D)

Shield had been rebuilt after they defeated Hydra a year ago. People were still sceptical about joining S.H.I.E.L.D but a few joined. Coulson stayed on the bus with his primary team. They had been on a job and got back a few days ago so the team was in the lounge room relaxing. Skye and Bobby were on the couches talking. Mac, Simmons and Fitz were at a table, Simmons watching Mac and Fitz playing a game of chess, while Hunter and Triplett were sitting at the mini bar. May was in was in Coulson's office talking with him.

"I still can't believe that you let him back into shield. Back onto this team." May declared, unpleased.

"I wasn't thrilled about it ether, but he has shown that he wasn't going to lie to us again."

"So you trust him?"

"Not at all. But he is still an expert in what he does so he is of some use."

" Agent Triplett is in the same expertise."

"Yes, but he has more experience. I know how you feel about this May, but he is useful here, he can't cause trouble and if he does, then I'll let you pumble him to dust. Plus, I can keep a closer eye on him here."

After the end of the Hydra incident, a few months later, Grant Ward was put on trial and after long arguments, he was agreed a second chance since he had helped them out with information of hydra. Coulson wanted him no where near the hub or anywhere where he could disappear, so he put him in a small container up in the sky with him and peoples who would not help him.

He was in his little room, alone and looking over pictures. It was pictures that he found of before the hydra incident. Pictures of the team laughing and all there projects.

That's where he spent most of his time since no one talked to him and some couldn't stand to see him. He went on missions with them but as soon as they got back, he was exiled to his room. Simmons, Triplett, Bobby, Mac and Hunter had forgiven him and where able to talk to him, only if they had to. Fitz, Skye, May and Coulson were having a harder time forgiving him. They made efforts but every time that they would see him, they kept thinking of what happened. Fitz remembered being underwater and his speech problem, which he had just gotten out of. Skye remembered her father and what he did. May remembered all the lies and him almost killing her. When Coulson, it reminded him of the entire Hydra operation.

The team weren't thrilled when they heard that Ward would be let back on the bus. In fact, Simmons and Fitz made a plane to put acid around his bed at night so he would fall out of the plain. When Skye and May thought of using one of the alien guns that they had stored away and accidentally pointed it at his head.

They finally got over the need of killing him and are trying to accept him being there. When Coulson was talking to May, the screen in front of his wall started flashing red. He tapped it to see that it was another mission call. May got everyone around the touch table and Coulson looked around and saw that one person was missing.

"May, go get Ward." She looked at him, giving him a look that showed that she really didn't want to. "I'll go get him." Mac intervened and walked away. A few minutes later, they both came back. Ward stood at the end of the room, away from most of them.

"Now that we're all here, we have a new mission. A few strange activities have been happening in New York." He started.

"Why is it always New York?" asked Triplett.

"I thought the same thing, but this is not alien. Its a group that's going around and they have been braking into houses and multiple places."

"Why are we going? Shouldn't that be the FBI's job or something?" asked Hunter.

" They think that there might be some special ties to this group. So we're going to go check it out. Skye, I'll need you to find where they are now. Everyone else, get ready, we're landing in 30 minutes." and everyone went their separate ways.
