Chapter 6
The team waited, watching the doors to the entrance of Providence to open. When the door did finally open they were greeted by men dressed in full body armor with guns.
"That's not Hydra." Coulson tells them. "That's the U.S Military."
Parker is standing behind Coulson and Trip since they went out in front of them. Simmons eventually grabbed his hand for safety. The thought of the U.S military being right in front of them brought back memories to him. The last time he saw this many was at his father's funeral shortly before he left for the academy.
"Agent Coulson, we know your team is here." They heard someone say.
Coulson stepped out from the hallway they were standing in to see who they were up against.
"If I come out, you won't shoot me right. " Coulson asks. "Colonel Talbot?"
"Hey there, Phil. Long time no see."
"What are you doing here? This isn't exactly known." He tells them.
"I led them here."
Parker knew that voice. It was the one that sent him to Coulson's team in the first place. It was Maria Hill, his aunt. Hill was his mother's sister. She was the one that sent him there knowing that Hydra had made an appearance again. Parker turned to face FitzSimmons. He let go of Jemma's hand and made his way towards Coulson.
"Andrew, no." Jemma whispers.
He doesn't answer her and continues towards Coulson to appear before his aunt who was the former second in command to S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Was this your plan when you sent me? Because as far as I know Coulson is capable of running a team, Aunt Maria."
Fitz drops his mouth open and looks at Simmons, who seems to be surprised as well. Parker had never told them that his aunt was linked to S.H.I.E.L.D. Just that his dad was in the military. Certainly this was his mother's sister. Jemma realized that after thinking about it a bit. Maria Hill looked a lot like Andrew's mother.
"Andrew, I didn't expect you to come back with them, but then again you have friends on the team." She told him.
"You knew that long before you sent me."
"Yes, I did." Hill pauses. "We just want to help. Phil, if I could speak with you. Alone."
"This way then." Coulson tells her as he leads Hill to a small private room.
The rest of the team is escorted towards the kitchen by Colonel Talbot. Parker ends with Jemma's hand back in his. They smiled at each other slightly and carefully followed Fitz and Trip, who were in front of them. Two of the military officers were behind them.
They were told to be seated and to wait until Talbot spoke to them. Fitz and Trip ended up taking one side of the table while Simmons and Parker on the other. Jemma would eventually let go of Andrew's hand and comfort him while he had his hands in his head.
The agent knew he could have some explaining to do about how Maria Hill was his aunt.

Skye was just about done with the decoding on the computer while Ward carefully looked around the dinner from behind the menu. A few cops had come in and Ward was worried about them.
"Are you almost done?" He asks Skye.
"Just about done. Finishing up." Skye pauses. "And there. Finished."
She turns the computer around to show Ward what was done. A photo from a few minutes ago appears on the screen showing and telling where he could be found from on the most wanted list.
"What did you do?" he asks angrily.
"Hail Hydra." Is all she responds with as she shuts the computer and makes a run for it.
"Skye!"
Before Ward can go after her, Skye sees that he is caught by the cops that walked in a few minutes before. While that was happening, Skye quickly runs over to the empty police car that surprisingly still has the keys in it. She was going to make her get away. The hacker could finally go back to her team.
But she wasn't able to make it far, by the time Skye got to the end of the street, she was stopped by something huge. Deathlok appeared in front of her slamming on top of the hood of the car. Skye hit her head on the steering wheel and the next thing she could see was nothing.

Parker continued to lay his head in his hands. He somehow still liked that Jemma could comfort him by rubbing her hand along his back. It was something he missed after leaving the academy. The agent thought of everything that went on when he got to Coulson's team.
Seeing Jemma and Leo again together brought back so many memories they all had together. But seeing Jemma hurt. They were both hiding their feelings towards each other. Everything that happened to both of them at the academy was all too much by the end of it all. They both were hurt. Somehow now they both tried to go to when everything was simpler. To him, that wasn't going to end well. Parker still had secrets, ones that he needed to tell the biochemist eventually.
He also wondered how he was going to explain that Maria Hill was his aunt. No one never really knew how he made it to the academy. Leo and Jemma always thought it was because he was smart like them and that his late father was in the military. But Parker knew that wasn't the case, him being smart just helped. Maria was the one that helped get him into the academy.
Finally he thought of Skye. She went off with Ward knowing he was Hydra. How was he supposed to explain that he knew her before the hacker joined the team?
Andrew lifted his head to look at Jemma who was still rubbing his back and then at Leo who had his arms crossed against his chest. How he and Jemma kept everything a secret from Leo was a complete mystery. Although Fitz could have known and chose not to say anything to them about it.
"Agent Parker, who knew Maria Hill was your aunt. Seems like you just get handed things for free." Talbot says to him, clearly trying to irritate him.
"Leave him alone." Simmons tells him.
"Why so he can run to you when I'm finished. We all know he's still that scared little boy, just like his father."
Parker gets up from his chair immediately and it gets falls backs as he is ready to fight Talbot.
"Leave my father out of this! He was a hero."
FitzSimmons quickly got up and held on to Parker making sure he wouldn't do anything stupid towards Talbot.
"With all due respect sir, it's rude to say something like that." Trip tells Talbot. "My grandfather was a Howling Commando and I certainly wouldn't appreciate it if you said that about him. So leave Parker's father out of this."
"Suit yourself." Talbot tells Trip before getting ready to leave the room. He looks at the other officers in the room. "Boys, you know what to do."
With the command in play, the officers begin to attack the agents. Trip easily takes out a few while Fitz tries his hardest not to get hit by any of them. Parker on the other hand takes the responsibility of protecting Simmons from harm's way.
"Andrew, on your left!" Jemma yells at him.
Before Parker can get a hit in, the man has a hand on his arm and twists it in a way to where he eventually hears a pop from his shoulder.
"Ahhhhh." He yells out in pain holding his left arm after being thrown across the floor and then shocked by another guy.
"Andrew!" FitzSimmons both yell as Trip takes out the last of the guys in the room.
Simmons makes it to Parker first grabbing his right hand not wanting to let go. There's tears coming down her face after seeing that Andrew's eyes are closed. She searches for a pulse and thankfully there still is one.
"We have to get him out of here." Fitz says.
Trip easily scoops Parker up in his arms with the help of Fitz and they all run to the hallway to see that Hill and Coulson are fighting their way out of the room they were in.
"Is he all right?" Coulson asks.
"Looks to be a dislocated shoulder, sir. He was also shocked by another officer." Simmons answers sadly.
"You and Fitz will take a vehicle after we get to Los Angeles to the hotel I have lined up for all of you." Hill tells Simmons. "Right now, we have to get out of here."

Skye wakes up to find herself handcuffed to the stairs while on the bus. She sees that Ward is in the lab playing with a few of Fitz's experiments. He is currently testing out one of the ICERs, Fitz was making adjustments on.
"You're a traitor, Grant Ward! How could you?"
Ward looks up from the lab and then looks over towards Skye.
"This has always been my mission. Ever since the start."
The specialist walks over towards the hacker and tries to place his hands on her arms but instead Skye punches him in the chest repeatedly.
"Skye, stop."
"Never! You're a traitor. You are... You're a Nazi!"
"Hold up. I'm not a Nazi." Ward says angrily.
"Yes you are. The Red Skull, leader of Hydra was a Nazi. You're a freaking Nazi serial killer!"
"I'm not a Nazi." Ward tells her again.
"Yes, you are."
Skye, you could join me if you wanted to." He says changing the subject.
"I wouldn't join you."
"But we kissed." Ward kind of said in defeat.
Before Skye answers, she sees Deathlok entering the lab.
"I'm married, Ward. You're nothing to me."
Both Ward and Deathlok look over at her speechless. That was certainty something they weren't expecting to come out of her mouth.
"You're what?"
"You heard me Grant Ward. I'm married and you mean nothing to me."
"But your fileā¦." He trails off.
"Is all covered up. You underestimate my skills."
Before Ward could give an answer to Skye's comment, Deathlok spoke.
"Agent Ward, we have to go. Garrett has informed me that don't have much time."
"Fine. Put Skye in the cage." He says and Skye is out once again.

Skye wakes up once again to find herself in a different place once again. This time after looking around she realizes it's the cage. She is all alone with nothing with her, not even her laptop, although she can't remember where that went.
After a little bit, she hears the door open. Thinking its Ward, the hacker gets ready to defend herself. But instead she sees that its Coulson coming to rescue her.
"A.C." She says running over to give him a hug.
"Let's get out of here." He tells her.
They run towards the bar hoping to find a way out of the bus.
"Not that I'm not happy to see you, but how did you get past Deathlok?"
Coulson turns around to face her. "Deathlok is on the plane too?"
Skye nods her head and they both turn to see that Deathlok is coming towards them. Coulson pulls out an ICER to try and stop him but it doesn't seem to leave any damage.
"Get to the cargo hold. Get to Lola." Coulson yells to Skye.
The hacker quickly does what is told and makes her way to the cargo hold and opens up the door. Coulson is not that far behind as they both hop in Lola getting shot at. The car is put into reverse and they fall out the back at a high speed only to eventually land near a movie theater charging twenty dollars for parking.

Please leave a review and tell me what you think. I know the ending is kind of bad but it sets up a bit for chapter 7. Next chapter will help give more answers as we learn more about Parker along with the past he had with Simmons at the academy.
