Chapter Four (Will I Ever be With Them Again?)
Skye decided to walk the lone hallways of the SHIELD medical building. They were empty as far as she could tell, but that didn't matter anyway. No one could see her.
She walked place to place, seeing all who was in the rooms. They were mostly ICU patients; the severely injured and ill. And she was one of them. She was left in a comatose state and may never wake again.
That hurt her. She never said goodbye to anyone, well sort of to Fitz, but she didn't have any proper farewells. She went in that estate and didn't come out the way she hoped. Those two bullets ruined everything.
Those two bullets shattered her life, and most likely ended it as well. They also had shattered the lives of the rest of the team. There was no way that they would come out of this, even if she lived, the same. They would be different.
Skye sighed and decided to go back to her room, if you could call it that. Her body, her anchor, was there. She thought she probably shouldn't stray far from it.
She approached the closed off room. She had been placed in a high-priority ICU room right after the emergency surgery. There were doctors and nurses constantly coming in and out of there checking to see if there were any signs of normal bodily activity, but they hadn't found any yet.
She passed through the wall without even opening the door, she could do that now. But she hoped that it wouldn't last for long, she wanted to be in her physical body again.
The heart monitor's slight, slow beeping was the only signal that Skye was actually alive. If you didn't see it and just looked at her, you would assume that she was dead. Her skin was stark white, it looked like there was no life in her body.
She asked herself if she would ever be with the team again, or if this was the last time that she would ever see them. She missed them with all of her heart. She missed all of them, even May. She still couldn't believe what she had heard May say.
Skye felt hollow and numb without them. She didn't know what to do. The only thing she wanted was for all of this to live, nothing else.
Footsteps shattered her momentary silence and she turned to see Coulson walk into the room, pain and grief on his face.
She hurt with him. Coulson had taken her in when nobody else did. He had practically become the father she'd never had. He was the person that Skye trusted the most.
Now he was bent and broken; filled with unbearable pain. And it was absolute Hell for Coulson to see Skye like this.
Author's Note: I dont own AoS, Marvel does. Short chapter this time. This was mostly one for Skye's feelings. These will come every so often. Coulson is next and then Ward, then there will be a combination of characters in the chapters. Marvel's Agents of SHIELD will return in a chapter. Keep reading and please review! ~AwakeAndAliveSpartan.
