So…Umm…yeah. I guess you could say it's been a while. :P But in my defense, I had a lot of school and APs and exams…so yeah. Here's the next chapter that took over half a year to write. Oh, and I'm disregarding the fact that AoS killed off THE TWO MOST HANDSOMEST PEOPLE ON THE SHOW, so Ward (WHO IS NOT HIVE) and Lincoln will remain in my story. *sobs and weeps over Lincoln* *whyyyyy* I may or may not include Elena and Joey. I probably will. Anyways, I should be updating more often now. Hopefully. Oh and Daisy will still be referred to as Skye. OMG SO MANY THINGS HAVE CHANGED. Oh, and Hunter and Bobbi are still here.

"It's been too long!" Hissed Brynn, "TOO LONG!"

"Geez, calm down!" Yelped Lincoln as the fiery blonde charged into his bunk. "Too long since what?"

"The Pranks!"

Lincoln rolled his eyes. "Seriously? We pranked the entire team just last week. You seriously want to prank them again?"

"Not those pranks, silly, the Pranks of War!"

Lincoln had heard all about the prank war that had erupted between certain members of the team and how Brynn had pranked Coulson, and then Coulson double pranked Brynn, so Brynn double pranked Coulson with the help of Ward, and then Coulson pranked Brynn but Brynn and Ward pranked Coulson at the same time, and somehow May got involved, so now everyone was fearing for their lives.

"War? I think that's a little bit of an overstatement—"

"NAY! It is not!" shouted Brynn vehemently.

"Nay? Brynn, have you been reading Thor fanfiction again?"

"No…"

"Really?"

"…"

"…"

"Fine! I was. But that's not the point! I need to get back at Coulson. And I need help." Brynn batted her eyelashes.

"No, no, no, no, no, no! I will not help you with your shenanigans against the director!"

Brynn huffed and crossed her arms. "Pleeeeaaasssee? This will erupt into World War 3, and if you don't take a side, you might die!"

"If I take a side, I risk the anger of my boss!"

"You need to straighten out your priorities! Fine. I'm going to go ask Mack for help."

She turned on her heel and marched out of Lincoln's bunk, leaving him shaking his head. How did they manage to keep up with her all the time?


"But Mackie! I need help!" pleaded Brynn, "If I don't Coulson will win the war!"

"No."

"But Maaaacckk!"

"No."

"Please? Pretty please?"

"No."

Mack was focused intently on the videogame he was playing, determined to finish off Skye once and for all. He barely noticed the tiny girl poking her head under his arm.

"Please Mackie?"

"YES!" cheered Mack, although for other reasons than what Brynn had in mind. He watched jubilantly as Skye's player went crashing down a cliff before erupting into flames.

"So you'll help?" squealed Brynn.

"What? No."

"But you just—"

"No."

Brynn put on her best "dejected puppy" face and slunk off, probably to pester Hunter, Mack suspected.


"Please, May?" whined Coulson.

"Please what?" snapped May, irritated by Coulson's begging.

"Help me get revenge on Ward and Brynn!"

"No."

"But I know you're planning a revenge on Ward!"

"Yes, I am. But it's none of your business."

"But we can team up together and take him down once and for all. I need your help, May. I don't have any ideas, and if you don't help me, I'll be left for Ward to prey on!"

May cocked an eyebrow. "Dramatic much?"

Coulson sighed. "Okay, fine. How about this? You get to think of the revenge plan, and I'll gather the materials and resources needed to carry it out. See? You get to boss me around."

"But I boss you around anyways." May secretly enjoyed making Coulson suffer and beg at her feet. It was payback for when he blamed her for the flour prank.

"But May, I'm helpless here! You don't want to see your best friend being torn apart by those two wolves, do you?" whined Coulson, switching tactics once again.

"Fine, fine!" relented May, deciding she had had enough of Coulson's pathetic mewls. "But I'm only helping you get revenge on Ward. Not Brynn."

"Deal!" shouted Coulson exultantly, shaking May's outstretched hand. Ward was going down!


Ward was hunched over a computer in his bunk. Ward did not need help. Ward did not need allies. Ward was mighty! He cackled evilly has he drew up his master plan. He needed to get revenge on Brynn for framing him, but at the same time cause enough commotion for Coulson so that the director would be too distracted to prank him back. And then he needed to trap May somewhere until he turned her anger to another unsuspecting member of the team. And then he needed to (very secretively) get back at Skye for ratting him out to Coulson.

"Ward, why are you laughing so weird?" asked a voice behind him.

"Skye!" he yelped, slamming the computer shut so that his genius plot would not be revealed, especially to that little daddy's girl (Ward may or may not have been a little jealous over how much Coulson favored Skye over him). "I was just…reading something funny," he lied smoothly, "Do you know why the Iphone 6s is so great? Because it's a success! Get it? Six-S? Success? Get it? Get it? Hahahaha!" he snorted with laughter (and pride) and the genius of his pun.

Skye rolled her eyes at his antics and walked away. Unbeknownst to the bearded man laughing in front of his computer, (he really needed to shave) Skye knew what he was up to. Did he really think she was thick enough not to see through that pathetic pun? What did he take her for? A fool?

But she was most upset that he was plotting against her. They were best friends! She was supposed to be his ally.

"Fine!" she muttered to herself, "If he's going to play dirty, so will I!"

She made her way to Brynn's bunk and flung open the door, a plan already brewing in her mind.

"Brynn!" She hollered. There was no reply. "Brynn!" she yelled again. Silence. Skye was puzzled. She was sure she had seen Brynn come in here…. "YOUNG ONE?" she tested. Brynn had recently gone on a Thor craze. They had visited the Avengers Tower (wow Cap's face when he saw Coulson was PRICELESS and Tony was like OMG WTF WTH AHHHH and wow Skye was still laughing at all their reactions it was seriously the best hahahahaha), the sound of the door opening jolted Skye out of her hilariously happy memories.

"Skye?"

"Brynn? Lincoln?"

Lincoln stopped short and jumped behind Brynn, and looked ridiculous in doing so because she legit hid none of him. Skye gaped.

"WHAT THE HELL CAMPBELL!"

Lincoln cowered under her glare. "I'm sorry, I just wanted Hunter to get off my back about it, okay? If you're really mad, it'll grow back!"

"BUT I LIKED YOUR SCRUFF!" yelled Skye, "NOW YOU LOOK LIKE A SHAVED MOUSE!"

Indeed, Lincoln's chin was shining free-of-scruff for the first time in years and Brynn was happily holding a razor.

"BRYNN!" yelled Skye, "WHY?!"

Brynn pouted. "But Hunter was being meaaaaan to Lincoln about it, so I thought I would help him out."

Skye flopped on the bed. "Don't cave in to peer pressure! Gosh, you guys are seriously weak."

Lincoln sat down meekly beside her. "I'm sorry. I'm just really tired of Hunter's jokes."

Skye huffed. "Apology accepted. But why couldn't you have just made fun of Hunter's scruff back at him? Gosh, he looks better without it anyways."

Lincoln shrugged. "I dunno. I didn't want to be mean." He awkwardly patted Skye's head.

Skye sat up. "You need to learn to be mean, then. Take a lesson from me. If Hunter says you look ugly with a beard, tell him he looks like a rat, okay? A damn rat."

Lincoln chuckled. "Okay."

Brynn stood by the door raising an eyebrow at both of them. Such lovebirds. Much sweet.

"Oh, and by the way, Ward is planning something big against literally all of us. Like every last one," said Skye jumping up. "And we need to stop him before he explodes the base. Who's in?"

Up in the air vents May gasped. This was getting crazy.
