Chapter 2

"Hello Maddison, I'm Phil Coulson and this is Melinda May"

"Um .. hi" I say a little coursiously.

"First things first, we've noticed that you have an acceptional intellegnce for your age 11?" I nod and the man continues " we're here to offer you the chance of a life time." He pauses to asses my response.

" You don't have to decide straight away, but we'd like to offer you a taster" Melinda says with a smile on her face which quite suits her.

"What is this opportunity you keep speaing of?" I ask quietly.

Phil moved to the edge of his seat before saying "We'd like to offer you a place in S.H.I.E.L.D"

3rd person

" What's Shield?" Maddison asks curiously, looking into the eyes of one adult to the other.

"S.H.I.E.L.D is a secrete orginisation of the U.S government. Which stands for Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforecement Logistcs Division." Phil stated waiting for he young girls reaction.

" Someone really wanted it to spell out shield" Maddison smirks, causing a slight smile to appear again on Melinda's face. "So do I have to call you guys agent insert name here?" She asks with a joking tone.

"Yes, somethin like that" Coulson says, "Shall we" he continues pointing towards the door. Maddison and the two agents stand up and leaves through the wooden office door. Stepping outside of the school enterence with her backpack which had been colected on rounte out of the building.

The air smelt full of pollution as normal for the city. It was warmer than Maddison remembered it being last time she was out here. Walking round the corner into the carpark, the adults stopped next to a red, sporty, old fashisioned looking car.

"This is Lola" Coulson said as if it was his child and he was the overly proud parent. Opening the door so Maddison could climb into the back she noticed the exceedingly wide vairity of different gagets, beond her imagination.

"Wow" is all Maddison could say trying to take everything in.

"You should wait till you see the rest of place, now for security reasons we're going to have to blind fold you until we get onboard the Bus, I hope your not afraid of flying" Coulson jokes.

"I wouldn't know, I've never been on a plane before" They both look at Maddison not quite believing her. After sitting in the car for about half an hour in the dark Maddison saw daylight again and they were in a totally different location. In the distance the first thing i noticed was a building which I presumed was the airport building, the car had stopped on a runway. Looking the other way Maddison spotted a gigantic grayish black plane, like nothing she'd ever seen before. The cargo bay ramp was opening up and another person, whom Maddison persumed was another agent, walked down the ramp to greet them.

"I presume that's Maddison" the woman asks. Melinda nods.

"Hi, I'm agent Moorse" the woman smiles and then goes over to speak to Coulson.

"How many of you are there?" Maddison asks couriosity leading her brain wild.

"A few" Melinda says "and call me agent May, follow me" she says walking inside the 'Bus' with Maddison following suit. Inside we went up some metal twisting stairs past a garage area and into a sort of lounge with a bar to one side. Then they went into an office at the far end of the Bus.

"Sit down and wait for Director Coulson" May said before leaving. Looking around I saw loads of old and odd looking objects on selves behind clear polished glass pains. On the desk in front of her sat a small golden coloured globe alongside a posh black pen pot which the bottom of was lost in a world of paper. The door opened; Coulson walking promptly through it and sitting down on the other side of the desk.

"Well what do you think?" He asks looking Maddison directly in the eye.

"It's very impressive, I've never seen anything like it" Maddison says still in awe at it all.

" Well I'll get Skye or Simmons to take you on the tour of the place." At this Maddison's eyes light up in excitement at this prosepect.
