Natasha looked at Skye, "So! You're Skye? The young lady who helped bring down HYDRA? I'm Natasha Romanoff but you can call me Natasha."

Skye nodded at her as Ward helped her spread her food container, "I have heard so much about you. Nice to finally meet you."

Clint turned to Ward, "Natasha and I will be heading to the training room in an hour, you want to join us?"

Skye's eyes were fired up with excitement when she turned to Clint, "Can I come too?"

"Certainly, why not!" Natasha smirked at the young hacker slash agent.

Ward stared at Natasha, "Don't you even dare try pulling anything, Natasha."

Natasha quirked an eyebrow at Ward before turning back to Skye, finally realizing that Ward and Skye is more than what they looks like, "No promises."

Clint chuckled as he looked between his partner and his friend, "Alright, cut it out you two! Grant, you better eat some food now if not later you may not have the energy to handle whatever Natasha may pull off later during training."

Ward rolled his eyes at Clint before bending down to eat his fish and chips while Skye looked at them, worrying that there might be a scene in the training room. Phil and May chuckled at the younger generations around the table while Fitzsimmons looked at each other, attempting to figure out what is going on.

After their lunch, Ward and Skye excused themselves to return back to their quarters to change into their workout clothes for their training section with Natasha and Clint while Fitzsimmons returned to their lab to work on the new specimens Iron Man found in Shang Hai.

Phil looked at Natasha, "You can play all you want with Ward, but don't go overboard. You still have a mission tomorrow. As for Skye, train her for defence not lethal, I don't need another Black Widow to mentor…" He then turned to Clint, "And you try to instruct her on how to hone her senses towards her surroundings, she's bad at those."

May nodded towards Natasha, "As much as I would like to see Ward crack a nerve, don't do anything beyond the boundaries."

Clint smiled at his previous mentor, "Phil, May, don't worry, I will be there with them in the training room to help, and I will also monitor Natasha and Grant. I will interrupt if Natasha did anything inappropriate."

Natasha rolled her eyes at Clint before turning to nod at Phil and May, assuring she will not go overboard with Ward. Phil and May smiled and nodded at them before exiting the cafeteria.

Natasha elbowed him from the side, "Why did you promise Phil that I will not do anything overboard? This is the perfect time to mess with Grant."

Clint chuckled as he wrapped an arm around the love of his life slash partner, "Didn't you see that not only Ward is very protective of Skye, even Phil and May were also very protective over her. You and I both see Phil as a father figure we have in S.H.I.E.L.D, do you seriously think he will not know what you plan on doing later?"

Natasha cannot disagree with Clint, Phil have indeed been very caring and loving to the both of them. She would definitely do not want to do anything Phil does not approve or dislike, "Fine! I will control myself."

Clint peaked her lips and smiled at her, "That's my girl!"


An hour later, Ward and Skye appeared in the training room where Natasha and Clint were already in half an hour ago, and the two of them were now sparring on the mat.

When Natasha and Clint saw them, Natasha took the opportunity and jumped onto Clint's shoulder, bringing him down to the mat, with his back facing upwards.

"I won!" Natasha smirked as she let him go.

Clint turned around and laid his back on the mat, "That's not far. I was distracted."

Natasha nodded at him, "And I used it to pin you down."

Ward chuckled at them as he walked over to pull Clint off the mat.

"Skye, you ready?" Natasha turned to Skye.

Sky nodded at her before moving towards her.

"Okay, Skye. Focus on your surroundings and never let your attention get distracted or it will cost you your life." Natasha got into position, "Now try to take me to the ground."

Skye looked at her for a second and took a deep breath as she hit a fast punch towards Natasha's neck, Natasha ducked very quickly and almost instantly, Skye lifted up her left foot and kick towards her waist. Natasha did not manage to duck the kick, she then quickly dropped onto the mat and roll before she bounced up to aim a punch at Skye's shoulder, Skye ducked beautifully, but just as she was about to attack, Natasha lifted her good leg and wraps her neck and pinned her to the ground.

"Not bad for a rookie. You manage to hit Natasha in just two attempts. I suppose you have been trained pretty well. Nice work, Skye." Clint clapped his hands as Natasha helped Skye up.

"Skye, I say you did a pretty good job. You were able to find my weak shots during the fight. Your first move was good, but for your second move you have to be faster. Your enemy will eventually lose patience with you and hit you with everything they got so you don't have time to think, you only need to attack." Natasha smiled and nodded at her as she guide her along.

Skye nodded at Natasha, "Understood. Can we go again?"

Natasha smiled, "Yes and don't say I didn't warn you. There will not any 'Are you ready?' from now on, get it."

Skye nodded as she got into position. Natasha continually helped her on her mistakes, Clint and Ward also help guide Skye along as the two ladies spar. After sparing for two hours, Natasha and Skye stopped to get a rest while letting the guys use the mat for a while. Clint and Ward sparred with weapon to show Skye tactics on how to use their opinion's gun at them while fighting with bare hands. In the following few days, Natasha started training Skye on her tactics whenever she was not on a mission, usually with Clint and Ward by their side, assisting.


And after being gone for six days, Karnak returned to the Helicarrier to visit her daughter.

"Skye!"

Skye ran into his arms when she saw Karnak walking down the cargo bay of his ship, "Daddy!"

"How have you been this few days?" Karnak wrapped an arm round her shoulder as they walked towards the teams' living area.

"I have been on training lately. I have gotten a lot stronger and better at concentrating and I could even sense my opponent's weak spot in just mere seconds, but my tactics still needed improving."

Karnak turned to his daughter, "You were able to sense weak points of your opinion?"

Skye nodded at him, "Yup, I have constantly been having difficulty in concentrating, but after meeting you, my anxiety inside of me went away almost constantly, and then when I was sparring with Natasha the other day, I was able sense her weakest point and attack it."

"Skye, you know what are my abilities and strength?"

Skye shook her head at him, "I don't recall you telling me any."

Karnak chuckled at his daughter, "I am able to sense weak points and shatter them in mere minutes and I am able to exert great strength. As your troubles and fear go away, your powers will slowly float out of the water as you regained your concentration around your surroundings. Skye, train harder with your mate, but be safe doing so, and you will be capable to exert great power within you and shatter your opinion weak point in just mere minutes."

Skye widened his eyes at him, "Really? You were able to do that?"

Karnak nodded his head at her, "It is my discipline to be able to sense the weakest spot in any object and my power to shatter it. Skye, I trust you will be able to practice it when you're fighting evil too."

Skye smiled and nodded at him, "Yes daddy, I promise you I will always keep that in my heart whenever I'm on mission."

Karnak planted a kiss along her temple, "That's my girl. I am so proud of you. I believe your mom will definitely feel the same way, if she's here to see how well you're doing."

Skye kept quiet for a minute as they entered the shared living area, "Daddy, do you think of my mom very often?"

Karnak exhaled a heavy sigh and looked at his beautiful daughter, "Yes, very often. I thought of her more often after since seeing you last week, especially when you looked so much like her. I miss everything about her, her laugh, her hugs and most of all, I missed having her by my side. But I am glad that at least I will have you by my side now. I may not be able to be on Earth often, but whenever I have the time I will come here to visit you, regardless whether you're on a mission or at any part of the world."

Skye smiled and nodded at her father, "We will be the Strike Team Digamma of father and daughter."

"Why choose Digamma?"

"Because Digamma on Greek means F, which stands for family and father!" Sky tilted her head at her father.

Karnak stifled a chuckle after hearing her 'reason', "Skye, you're truly my precious!"

Skye laughed and nodded in agreement, "So, why did you return to Attilan so urgently last week?"

"Black Bolt has sent me an urgent message informing me that there were some unwanted guest while I just got on board onto the Helicarrier and after seeing you, I just could not bare to leave you immediate so I decided to stay for a few more hours before returning back to Attilan. Fortunately, not much damage was done at that time, so I manage to defeat all the intruders. Black Bolt needs me to assist with the cleaning up so I stayed for a few more days."

Skye listened very attentively to how her father defeated all the unwanted intruders in Attilan, feeling very proud that her father is such a great man being looked up by the citizens of Attilan.

"Skye, there is one more matter. Black Bolt has offered to invite you and your teammates on board for a tour around Attilan, I know you don't desire of staying in Attilan but I think you should at least know how is life like in Attilan. Attilan will forever be a part of your life and I really hope you will be able to stay in Attilan for a few days every once in a while to accompany me too."

Skye smiled and nodded at her father, "Daddy! I know what you meant. I will talk to the team about this trip to Attilan, I am looking forward to visit the land you grow up on. It must be really fascinating."
