"HE took Skye. He attacked me first so I don't know what he did to Sienna, but she's unconscious. Wait." May put down the phone on a ledge and ran over to Sienna who was slowly stirring. "Hey Sienna, can you hear me?"
"Uh, yeah, yeah I can hear you." May went back to the ledge and grabbed her phone.
"She's awake, I'm pretty sure she can move." May covered the phone with her hand and turned toward Sienna. "Can you walk?" Sienna sent her a fake smile accompanied with one thumbs-up. "Yep, she's fine." Sienna assumed whoever was on the other end of that call asked May if she herself was fine, "We'll deal with that later - at length. Right now we need to figure out where they went." May hung up the phone and put it in her pocket.
"You know I got to say, I've been knocked out twice and kidnapped once since I've met you guys. Not really enjoying it to be honest." Sienna stood up and tried to move her arm. "Ah crap."
"What's wrong?" May asked and walked back towards Sienna. "You alright?"
"Yeah, my shoulder's popped out of its socket, I'll be fine." May narrowed her eyes in confusion. "Ever since an incident at a foster home my shoulder pops out of its socket easily. I just need to pop it back in. Give me a second."
"You know maybe you should do that in a more controlled environment, like back on the plane in the lab, with medical supplies."
"No, no I got this." Sienna extended her arm out to the side and slowly brought it over her head so that the palm of her hand was on the top of her head. She slid her hand to the base of her neck. "Come here and just give me your arm." May moved closer and stuck her arm out. "Okay here we go." Sienna moved her hand to the opposite shoulder and a loud pop could be heard, at the same time she squeezed May's arm. Hard. Sienna took a sharp breath inward.
"You okay now?" May asked with what seemed like genuine concern lacing her words.
"Yep, I'm good just have Agent Simmons prepare some morphine and a sling." May looked at her questioningly. "Please?" Sienna added.
"I'll call her, Coulson already sent orders for a car to pick us up, when we arrive on the Bus..." Sienna sent her the confused look. "The plane, I'll make sure Simmons has the stuff ready."
"Oh okay, that makes sense. Coolio. Did Coulson find out where that bastard went with Skye?"
"They're working on it, we'll find her, don't worry."
"I'm not worried, we've been through a lot. She's probably already devised a plan."
• • • • • • • • • • • •
The car that Coulson had sent arrived for them moments later, the drive was quiet with only a couple of pained groans from Sienna every time they hit a bump in the road. When they finally made it back to the Bus, Simmons helped Sienna put the sling on and helped her take the morphine.
Coulson poked his head into the lab where Sienna, Simmons, and Fitz were. "We found Skye and Mike, let's go." Without any hesitation Sienna jumped up and was the first one out the door after Coulson.
Much to Sienna's dismay, Coulson turned around. "You're not coming."
"Excuse you? That's my sister we're talking about."
"You don't work for SHIELD and it's dangerous, as of now you'll be staying behind with Agent May."
"Screw you."
"Thanks."
Sienna walked back into the lab and sat on one of the stools that were tucked underneath the working station. She looked around and observed her surroundings, something she always did when she was nervous. She noticed the expensive equipment and concluded that this plane was pretty new. Sienna was too busy looking around she didn't even notice May had arrived in the room, until she cleared her throat that is.
"Oh sorry, I didn't notice you there."
"Clearly, Coulson needs back-up, he called me in and you're welcome to come along if you want. As long as you don't cause any trouble."
"I won't, I promise."
"Let's go then."
• • • • • • • • • • • •
The car pulled over and stopped with a large jerk. Sienna and May both opened their doors as Coulson's voice came on the radio.
"We're at the north entrance May. We may have a third party here, so be careful."
Sienna nodded towards May and the two ran into the building. Yes, Sienna knew she looked very strange running in with a sling on her arm, but she didn't care. They found a staircase and took it all the way up to the large balcony overlooking the station.
They got up to the balcony just in time to see a man in a policeman's outfit shoot at Mike and send him over the edge right onto a little shop in middle of the station. The guy then trained his gun on Skye. Before he got the chance to shoot May ran up and hit him in the back of his leg, right behind his knee.
She then proceeded to disarm him, flip him over her knee, and knock him out with one final punch to the side of his head. Sienna ran towards Skye.
"Are you okay?" Sienna asked frantically while she looked over Skye for injuries.
"I'm fine Sienna, he didn't hurt me." Sienna pulled Skye in for a hug with her one functional arm. "I'm fine, but what happened to you?" Skye gestured to Sienna's arm that was in its sling.
"Michael Peterson happened to me. Dislocated my shoulder, just re-aggravated my old injury from the Brody's, I'll be fine in a few days." They hugged again before being broken up by the sound of a gunshot ringing out in the now quiet train station.
The three women ran down the stairs and towards the scene unfolding in the middle of the train station. They saw Simmons crouch down to Mike's side, everyone held there breath. Simmons turned around and stuck her thumb up and everyone exhaled. Skye and Sienna hugged once more.
• • • • • • • • • • • •
Skye and Coulson had left to go drop off Ace, Mike's son, a little while ago. That left Sienna sitting in the lounge room of the plane alone. Sienna pulled out her phone and opened up to the news app, she started reading some stupid story about the royal family's drama. She was about halfway through when May entered the room.
"So, you had a wild day." May didn't know why, but she'd taken an immediate liking to the girl. Whether it was because she saw herself in Sienna or because she just felt sorry for the girl, she didn't know.
"That's an understatement." Sienna scoffed as she tucked her phone into her back pocket. "Thanks for helping find Skye, I know it's your job, but still." It remained silent for a moment before Sienna spoke up again. "Do you know when Agent Coulson and my sister will be getting back?"
"It should be any minute now."
"Well in that case I'm going to head down to the hanger, it was nice meeting you Agent May."
"You too Sienna."
Sienna smiled and stood up heading to the hanger door. When she got there Skye and Coulson were getting out of the old 1960's red convertible.
"I'll leave you two alone to talk." Coulson said to Skye as he walked away. After he walked up the stairs and disappeared to the second floor, Sienna turned to Skye with a confused look on her face.
"Hey, why don't we sit down." Skye suggested hesitantly.
"Where and why?"
"Um right here on the floor and because we need to talk."
"Well, this should be good."
The two sisters lowered their bodies to the floor and sat down leaning their backs against the car. Skye took a deep breath and faced Sienna.
"Coulson proposed an offer." Skye began.
"What kind of offer?"
"For us to come and work with them. Work with SHIELD, on this plane, with this team."
Sienna almost laughed, "Doing what?"
"Well officially they would bring us on as consultants, me a consultant on technology and computers and you as a consultant on biology and medical stuff. Coulson was impressed by your file."
"What do you think? You think it's a good idea?"
"Honestly, I'm scared, but I really think it's the right thing to do. Plus, you'd get to learn more about medical things like you've always wanted."
"Alright then, let's do it."
"Really just like that? You are usually a lot harder to convince! Are you alright?"
"I'm fine. I've got a good feeling about this team is all, and I really like their lab, it's so cool!"
"Ah yep. Knew there had to be something science related in there."
"Shut up, you know you love me."
"Of course, how could I not?"
• • • • • • • • • • • • •
"Forget what I said before, this is the moment we'll regret." Fitz said as he faced his teammates that were standing in a line next to him.
It had been approximately 32 hours since Skye and Sienna had made the decision to join the team. Boy was Sienna regretting that decision now.
In the short time Sienna and Skye had been with the team they'd traveled to Peru, which at first the two sisters were very excited about, that was before it all went downhill, at an alarmingly fast rate.
The team had landed in Peru and had headed to the pyramid to retrieve the 0-8-4, the object of unknown origin. They had run into the international police of Peru, but fortunately enough Coulson knew the commander so it all wrapped up well, so they thought. Then came the rebels who had almost killed them all, something Sienna most definitely didn't enjoy nor was she used to it.
That had ended up okay broadly speaking, they had lost a couple of the members of the international police, but all things considered they had the 0-8-4. Everything was going fantastically until Commander Reyes had instructed her men to take control of the plane and steal the 0-8-4, which had led to Ward, Fitz, Simmons, Skye, May, and Sienna being tied up together attached to the hangar door.
Of course May had used her ninja-know-how to break them all out, something that surprised Fitz very much. Then they drove a car through the lab's doors and now they were about to shoot a hole through the side of the plane.
Fitz pressed a button on his tablet activating the dwarf that was going to set the 0-8-4 off. A few seconds later the team heard a huge bang followed by a series of very loud alarms going off.
"Oh my God! It worked! The drop in cabin pressure released the doors!" Skye said amazed.
"I'll take care of the soldiers, you guys get to the 0-8-4." Ward said to the four younger teammates, May had already left to take back the cockpit.
"What about Coulson?" Sienna asked.
"Let's hope he can handle himself." Ward before he turned the corner and ran towards the main level.
The four stooges attached by a make-shift rope made of seatbelts hooked together ran down the hallway after Ward. Sienna led the way, she peaked her head out after waiting a minute for Ward to take out the remaining soldiers. She retracted her head back just in time to miss the stray bullet of a soldiers gun.
"Go now! Find the 0-8-4!" Ward shouted over the noise of air being sucked out of the plane. He turned his attention back to the guys he was fighting.
Continuing to be led by Sienna, the four teammates pulled themselves across the plane's floor and towards the 0-8-4 that was sitting on a table. Just as Sienna was about to reach it, the machine flew up and lodged itself into the wall of the plane.
The four young adults switched themselves around so it was Simmons reaching for the 0-8-4. Sienna, being last made sure to grab onto the bolted down chair and anchor the group down as Simmons pulled the large object out of the wall.
"She got it! Reel us back in!" Skye shouted to Sienna, the latter pulled the four into the secluded room and shut the door. They all took a second to catch their breath. The door slid open again and a safety pamphlet flew onto Sienna's face, which gave her an idea. She unbuckled herself from the chain.
"Skye! Get me the yellow floaty device from underneath that chair." Skye looked at her sister with a confused look, but did as she was told.
Sienna opened the door again and reached out to grab the wall as she lugged the large folded up float behind her. She set herself up in between two seats and made sure she put enough pressure on the wall with her legs so she wouldn't fly out of the plane when she let go of the wall.
She took a deep breath and tried to ignore Simmons yelling at her to go back in the room. She told herself that her calculations were right and that she would let go and not fly off to her death. Before contemplating the possibly fatal decision she let go of the wall and worked on opening the float.
She pulled the giant red ripcord and the large yellow float inflated. The float flew into the hole and plugged it just as Ward was about to fly out, instead he landed on the float safely. All the papers and things flying around the plane fell to the floor.
May had gotten control of the plane and let the group know over the loudspeakers that they were heading back on track. Sienna slumped back and leaned her head against the wall while she tried to regulate her breathing.
Skye went over to Ward and stuck out her arm to pull him up. "She read the safety pamphlet." Skye said as she tried to catch her breath.
"I think she might be the first." Ward replied.
Sienna sent a tired smile accompanied by a weak thumbs-up in Ward and Skye's direction.
"No other way in huh? Just starting to warm-up to this place." Coulson said as he put a broken glass onto the surface of the bar. Skye took out a coaster and put the glass on top of it.
"The 0-8-4 is cooling and stable." Fitz announced from his place on the floor. "But we should call HQ and get it to the Slingshot as soon as possible."
Coulson walked over to Commander Reyes who was now tied up. "Told you they were good."
• • • • • • • • • • • •
Everybody gathered together to sit on the door of the plane and watch the 0-8-4 get flung into space. Sienna and Skye sat next to one another chatting about the events of the day while Simmons and Fitz got their drinks and started talking science. May and Ward were off to the side packing up guns.
"Looks like Skye and Sienna might end up as more then just consultants." Ward said to May as he put one of the guns into its slot in the large black case. "Despite our reservations. They could turn into solid assets, with some serious work."
"Well if they want to be field agents, they'll need a supervising officer. Someone disciplined, someone good." May raised her eyebrows and cocked her head in Ward's direction as she answered his statement.
"All right, but I can't train two at once, you'll have to take one." This time Ward gave the knowing look.
"Eh I don't know about that, I think you could train both of them." May answered putting a gun away.
"No way! Have you met them?" Ward said in an exasperated voice as he joked around.
"Okay fine, which one do you want to train?" May asked Ward, even thought she knew who she wanted to work with already.
"I don't really care, it seems like you know who you want though." Ward said as he followed May's gaze over to the young woman next to Skye.
"I see myself in her, you know?" May turned her body back towards Ward.
"Yeah, I do know. So, I guess that's it. You'll be Sienna's S.O. and I'll be Skye's." Ward said clapping his hands together and then standing up.
"Sounds good to me." May answered before walking away to join the younger agents that were lined up together sitting on the edge of the door.
"So it'll take about 180 days to reach the sun. Now, yes, of course, it would have been faster if they'd used hydrogen-fueled APUs, but they're having fun." Fitz said as he got another beer from the cooler.
"How many of those have you guys had?" Skye asked from her standing position behind May, Sienna, Fitz, Simmons, and Ward.
"Skye-" Simmons began before she started laughing. "Skye. It's important when in the field to unwind from time to time." Simmons started laughing again.
"Yeah, especially after a hard day of everyone almost dying." Fitz said before he started laughing too.
"Which doesn't happen every day, right? It's an anomaly — an irregularity. Not...the norm." Simmons added to Fitz's comment.
"Well I'll drink to that." Sienna announced. "Pass me a beer please." She said to Simmons who passed her a cold glass bottle.
"Yeah, speaking of "not the norm" whose idea was it to blow a hole in the plane?" Coulson asked.
"May said that the doors were tied to the pressurization, so I thought—" Skye began.
Simmons cut her off quickly though. "So we thought it was the only way to release them."
"It was everyone's idea, sir." Ward added and everyone else nodded to their confessions.
"Yes, quite genius really." Fitz spoke-up.
"Nice work." Coulson said relieving the tension.
"All clear for lift-off." A loud voice boomed over the airfield attracting everyone's attention.
"Oh, time for blastoff." Fitz said, he pinched the bridge of his nose and spoke again. "Launching...in three...two...one." The rocket launched into the air and mesmerized everyone as the colors of the sunset reflected their joyous mood. "The trajectory will take it beyond the lagrange point, so that it doesn't hit Hershel." Fitz said in his normal Scottish accent.
"Yeah and there haven't been any coronal mass ejections. So it shouldn't lose telemetry." Simmons responded in an excited voice.
"Guys. English." Ward joked.
Sienna watched the rocket and enjoyed the presence of the people around her. She felt like she was in the right place, she felt like she was home.
