Hi guys. Sorry for not updating in a while. I've already started writing a sequel to this fic, which is annoying as I'm not even nearly finished with this fic.

Anyways, hope you enjoy this chapter.

Skye must have fallen asleep, because she woke up with a start, sweating and panting. She looked around. She was still on the quinjet; Ward was crouched down next to her.

"Skye, you alright?" He said with actual concern in his voice. Skye was disgusted at this. "You must have been having a nightmare."

She looked down to see his hand on her knee. "Don't touch me" she growled at him.

Skye saw a look of hurt on his face, before he regained his composure and slid his hand off her knee. He stood up and looked at her, before walking away towards the cockpit.

"You know, he watched you while you were sleeping. He looked genuinely concerned" she heard a voice say from beside her.

She turned her head to see Raina looking at her.

"Did I ask for your input?" Skye snapped

"I think he genuinely loves you." Raina continued and Skye growled at her "But of course you already knew that. You just refuse to believe it, because you see him as a monster"

"Raina" Skye warned

"Well once you touch the diviner, maybe you can be monsters together." Raina smirked

"I'm not stupid enough to go anywhere near that thing" Skye hissed

"It's not stupidity, it's evolution."

"It's alien" Skye remarked

"Yes, the diviner is. But we are not. We are not aliens, we're just more than human" Raina said

"The last person to touch that thing, was turned to stone" Skye glared at Raina

"Yes, but if what your father said is true, you won't be" Raina replied "We will emerge from the temple as angels"

"You're deluded" Skye shook her head.

She turned in her seat and put her back to Raina.

"We're here" Ward said as he walked out of the cockpit. He stood in front of her and motioned for her to stand.

She glared at him, but stood up.

He led her into some kind of mansion and up a flight of stairs.

"I thought you were over this hydra thing when you handed Bakshi over to us. You picked the wrong side, Ward" she said, trying to keep her cool.

"I'm not loyal to hydra. My orders were to get Raina. Bringing you along was just an added bonus" Ward replied

"We've played this game of 'let's kidnap Skye' before. It didn't end well for you the last time Ward." Skye quipped.

"I'm just keeping my promise" he said as cut the zip tie off her wrists. She discreetly rubbed the sore spot the ties had left on her wrist. Ward unlocked the door that they had stopped in front of. He held the door open and she reluctantly stepped in.

There was a man in a suit sitting on the couch. He stood up when she entered. She knew who it was.

"I'm sure you two have a lot to catch up on" Ward said as her father rubbed his hands together nervously. Ward walked out and shut the door behind him.

Skye took one more step into the room but kept distance between her and her father.

Her father paced and she saw him start to get emotional.

"I'm sorry, I promised myself I wouldn't get emotional. It's just…" he cleared his throat "I've waited so long for this moment"

Skye just stared at him.

"Sorry. Let's start again" He cleared his throat again "My name's Cal, I'm your-"

"I know who you are. You're a monster" Skye interrupted

He looked at her "Thank you for meeting with me" he ignored her previous statement.

Skye frowned "Thank you for-" Skye paused "Are you serious? I was kidnapped off a plane, at gunpoint" Skye stepped forward "And that is all you have to say"

"You're right, I'm sorry. Let's not lose our heads. I'm just a bit nervous, I hope it's alright to admit that to you." He paced up and down the room. "This is a big moment. Father, Daughter, Family reunion." He motioned at himself and at Skye. "I wanted it to be perfect. I-I had plans. I didn't want it to be like this. Not here"

He looked at Skye and smiled "My god. You are beautiful"

The brunette looked at her feet and the room fell silent.

"Well, I don't know what you know about me but-" he started

"You're a monster, a murderer, a trail of death wherever you go." Skye cut in.

"Those are… all true" Cal said "But you have to understand, you were taken from me, and my world fell apart. It was the worst day of my life, losing you, but I didn't lose you. I wasn't careless. I didn't forget. You were stolen from me!" He aggressively shouted the last part and Skye stepped back in fear.

She looked at the crazed man who was her father. He was totally unstable. She fought to keep her cool.

Cal noticed the look in her eyes and softened his voice and expression. "I wasn't always like this. I wasn't always a…" he trailed off as he sat down on a chair.

He sighed and regained his composure "You were born in China. Your mother was Chinese. When you were first born we were so happy" he smiled and relaxed in the chair. "I worked in a clinic. People liked me. I liked myself" he looked down with a sad smile on his face.

"So what happened?" Skye asked as she took a step towards him.

He didn't answer, just continued to look at the floor "Hey" Skye said loudly to get his attention. His head snapped up, liked he'd just came out of a daydream.

He stood up and walked towards her "This is the thing I want to say." He looked her in the eyes and she looked at him. "I'm sorry I couldn't be there for you, that I couldn't protect you. That I couldn't teach you about the stars, or sing you to sleep" his voice caught and tears formed in his eyes. Skye fought against the ones forming in her own.

"I know I'm a terrible disappointment, but I'm here now. And everything that's about to happen is supposed to happen" he said as he stepped towards her. "I'm gonna take care of you"

"Then get me out of here" Skye said

"What? Oh, maybe I haven't been clear. You are exactly where you're supposed to be" he smiled and nodded "This is your destiny"

Skye looked at him and stepped back out of fear.

After her talk with May, Bobbi had gone down to the garage and was twirling her escrima sticks. She'd lost Mack to the alien city and now she'd lost Skye to Ward.

She was still twirling her sticks when Hunter walked in.

"Hey Bob" He said with a sympathetic smile on his face.

Bobbi didn't reply, but she could feel herself getting emotional.

Hunter walked over to her

"Why did she go with them?" Bobbi cried as she fell into Hunter's open arms.

He stroked the back of her head and held her tight "She did it to save us" he answered

"hydra tried to shoot you out of the sky anyway. So she did it for nothing." Bobbi said angrily

"Hey, Bob. Don't say that. She did it to save us. She didn't do it for nothing."

Bobbi sniffed and pulled back from the embrace. "I know. I didn't mean that. I just can't believe she's with hydra. I can't lose her"

"And you won't. We'll find her, I promise. Coulson's got Trip and Koenig trying to hack into Raina's tracker. As soon as we've got the location we're gonna go get her." The brit consoled his ex-wife.

Bobbi smiled appreciatively at him. He frowned and looked at her. "There's something else. Something you're not telling me" he said.

Bobbi opened her mouth to protest but Hunter stopped her "I know it's something to do with Mack. Bobbi, what are you two up to?"

"Hunter, what the hell are you talking about?" Bobbi played dumb

"Bob, you can't lie to me, I know you too well. And you probably can't lie to Skye, so she's going to eventually find out that you're hiding something. So you might want to come out with it soon enough" Hunter said before he walked out.

When Bobbi had joined 'the real shield' she hadn't planned on meeting her soul mate, so she didn't know what to do anymore. Betray the organisation that she truly believed in, or betray the person she loved and the people who had become her family. She knew she should have easily chosen Skye and the team but it wasn't that simple. Shield was her life so it had to be the right shield.

Bobbi walked towards the bus. The team had been told to go there for debrief.

When she walked into the debrief room, Coulson, May, Fitzsimmons, Trip, Koenig, and Hunter were already there.

Coulson pulled up a picture of what looked like a mansion.

"This is an old theatre in San Juan" he explained to the team "Trip and agent Koenig tracked Raina's tracker to this theatre, which means-"

"Which means that's where Skye is" Bobbi interrupted

"Yes" Coulson replied "And it's practically on top of the chamber in the city."

"But we already know there's a ton of volcanic rock blocking entrance to the city." Koenig said

"Shield's got tech that could easily get through it, so hydra probably does too." Simmons said

"Yeah, plasma drill. That would make light work of it." Fitz added.

"May, Bobbi, Hunter and I will go stop hydra from drilling into the city and get Skye." Coulson said "Fitzsimmons and Trip, you go set the bombs to blow the city.

Everyone nodded

"Ok, everyone go get your gear. Wheels up in ten" May said.

After Cal told Skye about her mum and how she was taken, he was called to meet Whitehall.

She was left alone in the room, so she cried into her hands. She stopped when the door opened again and two hydra agents walked in.

"Whitehall wants to see you" one said as they pulled her to her feet. They stood behind her and motioned for her to walk. She contemplated her chances if she ran, but decided not to. The two guards hadn't zip tied her hands but they had guns and there were countless other guards swarming the place. So she walked with them.

"How does she fit in?" Whitehall pointed at her as she was walked into the main hall. Raina, Ward, Cal and a few other guards were there as well.

"I needed insurance that shield wouldn't blow us out of the sky" Ward told Whitehall.

"But you also ordered that the shield plane shouldn't be shot down. I had to counter that order myself"

Skye's eyes widened at this and she feared for the lives of her team.

"I have a theory as to why she's here" as Whitehall said this, agent 33 held up a case and unlocked it. She opened the lid and revealed the obelisk. She held it out towards Skye.

"I'd like you to pick it up" Whitehall requested.

"You first" Skye quipped.

The hydra agents surrounding her raised her guns and she heard the sound of the safety clicking off. They were all pointed at her.

The brunette looked at Cal and he nodded at her. She noticed the small knife in his hand.

She reached into the case and pulled out the obelisk. It glowed and everyone looked at her in shock.

Then she spun around and pressed the obelisk against one of the guard's neck. Cal stabbed another guard and Ward raised his gun. As did agent 33 and the other guards.

Whitehall stepped closer to her "I hope you're as special as your mother"

Raina took the obelisk off of her and returned it to the case. Ward's gun was taken by the guards and Cal lowered his knife.

"I'll confess, I didn't recognise you when you first barged into my office" Whitehall told her father

"If my daughter wasn't here, I would tear you and your men to pieces" Cal growled

"Well then I'll add that to the number of reasons that I'm glad she's here" he turned to look at Ward "you are the piece of the puzzle that I can't decipher. Why are you really here?"

"Is it really that hard to see?" Raina chimed in "It's love. Agent Ward believes if he helps Skye fulfil her destiny, she'll see him for who he really is." She smirked

Skye was disgusted at this. She already saw him for who he was. A traitorous, psychopathic monster

"It's a pity that you won't get to fulfil that destiny" Whitehall said "or that after all those years you won't get your vengeance for what I did to your wife" he looked at Cal, who was then knocked out by one of the guards.

"Secure him," Whitehall looked at Ward "but remain alert around agent Ward. He's a trained killer, one of the best. I have a feeling that in time I can make you comply." He smirked.

He then turned to look at Skye "Take her downstairs. I'd like to discover if you are as special as your mother. And after all" he paused and smirked "discovery requires experimentation"

Skye gulped and struggled as two guards gripped her arms. Ward looked at her with concern and she glared at him. This was his fault. She was going to be cut to pieces by Whitehall and it was all his fault.

'Bobbi will come for me, won't she?' she thought, as she was dragged away by the guards.

Skye was walked downstairs by the guards and into a makeshift lab. She grew fearful when she spotted the hospital bed in the corner along with the surgical equipment beside it. The guards pushed the brunette towards it when she stopped walking. They gripped her by her arms and lifted her off her feet. She kicked and tried to lash out, but she couldn't free her arms from the guard's grip.

She kicked backwards and kicked one of them in their groin, this forced him to let go of her arm. She punched the other guard in the face. The guard which she'd kicked recovered and looked angry.

She went for a punch but he blocked it. He retaliated by delivering a striking blow across the side of her head. She crumpled to the floor and the world began to spin. She forced herself to stay awake. She wasn't going to let them cut her to pieces like they did to her mother. She tried to stand but the guard who'd she'd punched stamped down hard on her ankle. She cried out and instinctively reached out to touch it. She could tell it wasn't broken but she wouldn't be able to walk on it.

The guard who she'd kicked bent down and got in her face "Are you ready to behave now?" He smirked smugly.

She leant forward and spat in his face. He reacted by growling and punching her hard across the face. Her head flew backwards and hit the concrete floor. She felt blood trickle from her nose and her world was once again spinning. She refused to pass out, but she didn't have enough strength in her to stand let alone fight back.

The two guards gripped her arms again and dragged her over to the hospital bed. They lifted her up and threw her onto it. Her hands were slid through the leather restraints and so were her feet.

Then two men in lab coats walked in. One was a tall and skinny man with a thin black moustache. He had a disturbing grin plastered over his face. The other was a smaller man with well-groomed brown hair. He looked sheepish and nervous, like he didn't really want to be doing this.

The skinny guy walked over to her and smiled "Dr Whitehall sends his apologies. He had to deal with some other business. He sent my associate and I to discover your specialty."

The guards walked over to the door and stood guard.

The skinny man looked at his associate and nodded. The man nodded nervously before walking over to the surgical equipment. Skye's eyes widened when he returned with a glass syringe containing a yellow liquid. She tugged on her restraints even though she knew there was no way she'd be able to remove them. The skinny man placed his hand on her fist, stopping her struggle. He smirked at her.

"What are you giving me? What- what's in that?" Skye studied the syringe.

"Well we need you awake for the procedure, but we also need you to stay still and I don't think you're going to be able to do that. This is a paralytic agent. It will temporarily paralyse you." He smirked.

Skye looked at the smaller guy with fear in her eyes. She hoped he had some humanity left in him. "Please" she begged "You don't have to do this. Please don't do this. Please"

The skinny guy laughed at her efforts but the smaller man looked at her sorrowfully.

Suddenly there was a huge bang. Skye saw the skinny man look at the guards. "We'll go check it out" she heard one of them say

The skinny man looked back at her "We better get on with the procedure then" he looked at the small man.

She felt him wipe the surface of her neck with an antibacterial wipe. "I'm so sorry" he whispered as he put the needle against her neck.

She saw him place his thumb on the plunger, then "Get the hell away from her" came a harsh voice from across the room.

Skye lifted her head to see Bobbi and May, with their guns pointed at the two men. The smaller guy dropped the syringe and held his arms up in surrender. Skye sighed in relief when she heard the glass of the syringe shatter.

"Whitehall will keep coming for her. He will find her, and when he does" the skinny guy began "he will cut her to pieces"

Skye heard a shot then the man fell to the floor. She saw the blue from the icer crawl across his face. Then there was another shot and the smaller man fell to the floor.

"Skye" Bobbi sighed in relief as she ran over to the bed.

"Bobbi" Skye smiled.

Bobbi cupped Skye's chin and kissed her furiously. They pulled back and May and Bobbi began to get Skye out of the restraints.

Skye sighed in relief as she pulled her hands out of the restraints. Bobbi came back over to her and again cupped her chin. "What did they do to you? Are you alright?" the blonde looked the brunette over and discovered a nasty bruise forming on the side of her head.

"Bobbi, I'm ok. You got here just in time. They were about to…" Skye trailed off.

"It's fine. You're safe now. I promise." Bobbi assured her as she wrapped her arms around Skye. Skye wrapped her arms around the blonde and held on tight.

"Skye I'm incredibly relieved that you're ok and everything, but we need to go find Hunter and Coulson. They'll probably need our help" May said

Skye nodded then slid off the bed. She only remembered what had happened to her ankle when she stepped out of bed. She winced when she put weight on it. Bobbi steadied her. "What's wrong?" she asked concerned

"It's just my ankle. I think it's bruised" the brunette replied.

Bobbi sat Skye back on the bed "May, can you watch the door. I'm just gonna check Skye's ankle"

May nodded then moved towards the door.

Bobbi gently rolled up Skye's jeans to look at her ankle. There was already a big black bruise on it.

"I can probably walk on it, just really slowly." Skye told Bobbi

"It's just bruised but it's gonna be really painful" Bobbi grimaced.

Skye nodded and Bobbi wrapped her arm around the brunette's waist. Skye put her arm around Bobbi's shoulders and the blonde helped her off the bed. Skye rested some of her weight on Bobbi and they limped towards the door.

"We good to go?" May asked

"It's bruised not broken, but she's still gonna struggle to walk" Bobbi answered

"Ok, I'll go find Coulson and Hunter, you take her to the bus" May said and Bobbi nodded.

"No, I'll be okay. Coulson and Hunter need help against all the guards that are in this place. I can help. I'll just walk it off" Skye said.

"Skye, I don't think-" Bobbi started

"Bobbi, please. Let me help. I'll be okay" Skye pleaded with the blonde.

Bobbi sighed before looking at May who also sighed but nodded.

"Okay fine. But you stay with me at all times" Bobbi told the brunette.

Skye nodded.

The three then walked up the stairs to main part of the theatre, with May up front and Skye hanging onto Bobbi behind her.
