Omg before I start this chapter, I just want to thank you all for all the reviews, and opinions (SUCH A GREAT RESPONSE TO MY FIRST CHAPTER)
I'm deciding to see how the show plays out and where this story goes will sort of be a chapter by chapter thing. I don't know who Skye will end up with in the end, but you'll just have to keep reading to see how it plays out XD And just because this chapter seems sort of Skye-Lincoln (does it? Well laying the ground anyway), don't be discouraged Skyeward fans they'll be a scene for you later to (it just might take two or three more chapters). But just keep reading, and let's see how this goes ;) It's a love triangle story, so you never know who Skye will end up with XD
Lincoln or Ward.
But that's not to say I will be considering the reviews from you guys, if I only have one person supporting Skyeward I'll probably go with Skye Lincoln (what's the ship name gonna be?) and vice-versa with Skye-Lincoln
Gosh I really need a ship name, his full name is Lincoln Campbell, and we got just Skye, but quake and daisy could also work…mmm REVIEWERS FIND A SHIP NAME FOR THIS COUPLE XD I'll choose a winner and put it in my next chapter (but by then fans might have already chosen one…. but then again people reading this are all fans soooooooo we may be the deciding factor XD (and people are still debating between FitzSkye and Skitz, personally I think Skitz is much cuter)
Woah I rambled for a long time. Anyway I appreciate all the reviews! And anyone who bothered reading this before the chapter, I know I usually skip them XD
Chapter 2
Gonzales walks down the stairs into the cell. May scowls and gets up off the bed she was sitting on watching him come in. They had locked her up in Ward's old cell. And it annoyed May more that the last memory she had in this cell was watching Skye shoot herself. "Melinda May." He greets in his mystic voice. May doesn't say anything. "Or maybe I should call you the cavalry"
May scowls. "Don't ever call me that." She says bluntly, with no emotion.
Gonzales smirks. "Fitzsimmons, are concerned about you. And I told them the truth, and that is we want to let you go." May waits for him to continue. "Of course after I just ask you are debriefed."
"What makes you think I want to answer those questions?"
"Because I'm Shield and we mean you no harm. These are exit protocols. We're on the same side Agent May."
May grinds her teeth together to savor her anger. "You attacked us. Or was the dendrotoxin gas not you? And the explosion in the server room? Were you not taking our people away at gunpoint in handcuffs?" May crosses her arms. "None of that sounds very shield like to me, not if you really believe we're on the same side."
Gonzales sighs, as if May were a child he couldn't get through to. "You don't understand—"
"Oh I understand. This was an invasion, and a violent one."
Gonzales keeps his same grunt face. Obviously not really in the mood of answering May's questions. May looks Gonzales in the eye, not daring to back down. It was her starring contest, and if he lost he was admitting defeat. But he doesn't look away; he blinks anyway as if he doesn't even acknowledge that May was there.
"Well let's get to the point then." He sits down in the chair. "Do you have a way to contact Skye?"
May frowns, not liking where Gonzales is bringing this, and the reluctance he is to defend himself.
"Even if I did, do you think I'd tell you?" May answers, annoyed by Gonzales.
"Well, she injured one of our men. It was almost fatal. She's dangerous and a hazard to mankind."
"Something tells me you're leaving something out of the story." May leans back against the cushioned walls. "And she's not a hazard to mankind." If May could and she was more open, she'd spit on this guy.
Gonzales uses his cane to get up out of the chair. "And something tells me that Fitzsimmons might have different views when they read her file."
May raises an eyebrow.
"We haven't been able to decrypt fury's toolbox exactly yet, but we're coming close to cracking it." He smirks to himself. "I wonder how people would react when they find out all we've learnt about the girl."
Fury takes residence in May's stomach.
"An 0-8-4, monsters looking for her, GH formula in her blood, on top of that these crazy powers, and apparent alien DNA. According to what we found Skye had no side effects." Gonzales walks closer. "A girl like that shouldn't exist. She's not even a human Agent May, no the only purpose for her survival would be experimentation."
"Skye is a person." May defends.
"No she's not, and all these facts just prove that." Gonzales turns around and starts leaving the room.
"Coulson and Skye aren't part of our race any longer." Gonzales states clearly.
May takes a long breath. "You want to put down Coulson and Skye."
Gonzales doesn't bother answering before leaving the room.
XxXxXxXxXxXxX
Skye eyes open, her heart beating and coming alert. She can't move her body, she tries to, but she can barely even feel her toes. All she can even try to move is her head. "Where am I?" She looks down, needles of all sorts sticking out of her. They had red edges like electricity. "What are you doing to me?" Skye asks, a bit scared.
Lincoln stands by her side watching from a tablet. "It's called acupuncture." He states as if it were obvious.
"Yes, but why are you doing it?" she asks him.
"Because, we need to examine the extent of your transformation." He explains.
Skye moves her head again. She looks down at what she's wearing. It looked like two white towels were all that were covering her. "What happened to my other clothes?"
Lincoln smirks. "Why of course I was very careful well undressing you." Skye's jaw drops.
"How dare, you—"
"Relax." Lincoln interrupts, "a female servant prepared you. We would have left you as is, but it's kind of hard to stick the needles through skinny jeans."
Skye leans her head back down on the red pillow. She was nervous, but in all honesty, she wasn't that scared. It sort of felt like a spa atmosphere with the candles and asian look of the place, and Lincoln gave off this atmosphere, that he wasn't a bad person, that he was nice.
Hopefully her instincts were right, because they weren't about Ward.
Skye tries to move her legs but fails. "How long have I been here?"
"About 12 hours, maybe more." Lincoln swipes his hand over the I-pad while talking.
Skye gulps. She remembers Bobbi, coming after her, with the guy with the gun. She remembers May's phone call. How Shield was after her. What did that mean? What was happening to her friends? Had Bobbi betrayed them, she'd come with soldiers who had guns. Fitzsimmons, Coulson, May, what on earth had happened to them?
"When can I go? My friends, they're in danger."
Lincoln bites his lip, as if he's nervous to answer the question. "This should be done soon." He clarifies. Skye frowns knowing that he dodged the question.
"But what is being done?"
"Like I said, I'm examining the extent of your transformation."
Skye was annoyed. She'd only gone with Gorden because she'd been scared and not known what to do. Now she just wanted to leave and find her team.
Skye tries to move her arms this time, but it stings and she stops, the hurt obvious on her face.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you." Lincoln says casually. "I numbed your arms with herbs so you wouldn't feel the pain. Usually acupuncture is painless, and you don't feel the needles going in. But your arms are so fractured it was harder to position the needles."
Lincoln comes forward and puts his hand on Skye's arm. She can barely feel it, but his hot touch makes her feel more comfortable around him. Somehow Skye was expecting it to be cold, but it was warm, and almost homey.
Skye bites her lip, what was she thinking?
Lincoln pushes a needle back into positon, and eyes the scarred tissue on Skye's stomach. "There a story to that?"
Skye doesn't answer. Lincoln simply backs away, his hand lingering over her stomach for a few short seconds. Dangerously close to touching one of the scars from when she'd been shot.
"I don't often wear bikini's now."
Lincoln chuckles. "Well I'm sure you're gorgeous either way."
Skye frowns, as she ponders over exactly what Lincoln had just said. Had he just been flirting with her? They were in to odd of circumstances to be flirting.
Skye needed to leave, and now. She didn't want to use it, in fact she would hate to use it. But she needed to, she needed to leave.
Skye thinks with her might, she'd never actually tried to use her power. It was always a thing at random. "It won't work." Lincoln tells her.
Skye looks up, confused at what he meant.
"Your ability, it won't work now. These needles aren't ordinary, their stopping your ability."
Skye looks down again at the needles picked with weird red, they definitely were not ordinary.
"Wait so these take my ability away, does that mean you can take it away, take away my powers?" Lincoln seems disappointed to hear Skye say that.
"Well if you want to live with a bunch of needles in you, and give up moving any other body part besides your head, then be my guest." This answer just adds to Skye's irritation. But as she looks at Lincoln, she wonders on something.
"….my ability, Gorden said there were others like me. Does that mean you're… different to?"
Skye wasn't sure what she was asking, but somehow it caught her attention. Lincoln was like her.
Lincoln simply gives off another smirk. "I went through the mist too, and like you I went through with no apparent change on the outside, unless of course my ability to grow facial hair faster counts. But really I think that came with puberty." He jokes.
Skye wasn't amused. But she was curious. "So if your weird voodoo acupuncture is telling you anything you already know what my…" Skye debates in her head what word to use. "…ability is? So what's yours?"
Lincoln just keeps smirking. "It's a secret princess." He puts the tablet on the table.
Skye just bites her tongue more frustrated by this person.
Just what on earth had she gotten herself into?
BOOM chapter 2 done!
So I didn't reveal Lincoln's power because I kind of want and keep a few things cannon, so let's see on Tuesday, how things will turn out. Also sort of just guessed with his personality, he sort of seems sarcastic so I made him a bit like that. But when the episode comes out and I find out he's super serious, I'm not sure how I'll fix that. Might just keep him as is XD Took some lines from the promo, if some stuff seems familiar (like I said somewhat sort of cannon) Will be switching between the characters a lot, but Skye will always have a point of view in the chapter
Anyway thanks for reading, and reviews are appreciated (reason I got this chapter up so fast)
Also tell me what you think Skye and Lincoln's ship name will be, I'll choose my favorite and post it in the AN for the next chapter :D
