Chapter 9
5 Year Old Skye's Point of View
My new foster home was awesome they really loved me and let me do whatever I wanted. My new mom even helped me with my homework and made sure I had either lunch money or lunch with me. On weekends we went to the park because my new daddy was off. He was a fireman and once he took me to see his truck. I was so big and he let me honk the horn. However like everything else it didn't last long. It all happened one weekend we were coming home from the park.
Mommy and daddy were in the front, they were singing along with me to the new Disney CD they had bought. Daddy was making funny faces at me in the mirror as we drove along, until it happened. "DAVID LOOK OUT!" Mommy yelled at daddy. I was in my boaster seat in the back when I saw the man appear in the road. Daddy tried to turn the car so it wouldn't hit him, but he was to late. The car hit the man and daddy lost control. I heard a lot of smashing and a lot of banging as the car finally stopped spinning.
"M-M-Mommy, D-D-DADDY?" I cried out to them. But they didn't wake up they were unconscious and there was nothing I could do. It was then that I heard someone approach the car it was the man who had jumped in front of us. He was whispered something to me, and I felt him stroke my cheek before there was a blast of sirens and he was gone. I didn't get to hear what he said as I felt dizzy and past out.
Melinda May's Point of View
4 years after Lily went missing.
I was in a run down hotel following some deadbeat leads on the whereabouts of my daughter. I was waiting for Phil Coulson to meet me, I hadn't seen him in forever yet he was still the only one in S.H.I.E.L.D still concerned about finding Lily. I don't know why he was so concerned but I was grateful for his never-ending help. I still hadn't returned to my job at S.H.I.E.L.D and doubted if I ever would return. So as I sat flicking the stations waiting for his return I decided to stop on the news station.
The headlines where flashing on the screen. "A five year old girl had a miraculous escape today when the car she was travelling in crashed into a man. Once the car hit the man it spun a record 4 times before stopping. The little girl was totally unharmed, but unfortunately her parents were killed. No news on the victim who was hit as of yet." The news reporter concluded. "Lucky kid." I remarked, as there was a knock to the door. I turned of the TV and went to open it.
"Phil!" I gasped as my old friend walked in. "It's been a while." I added. "Yeah it has, how have you been Mel?" he asked. "I'm good." I lied. However Phil knew I was lying as he looked around the room. It was covered in empty beer bottles and the pages I had gathered over the years on Lily were everywhere. "Mel, you have to take care of yourself, what happens when you find Lily?" he scolded. "I'm beginning to think that will never happen Phil." I admitted for the first time. "Its been 4 years and there has been nothing, not a sight nor sound of her." I cried.
"Mel we will find her, I promise you!" Phil said as he hugged me. "What makes you so sure huh?" I hissed. "Why do you even care?" I added. "Why do I care? I care because she is your daughter and this should never have happened. Nick brushed you aside like Lily didn't matter, and that was wrong. So I am helping in anyway I can to get her back, but you Mel, you cant give up hope on me!" he explained. I managed to give him a small smile as I said, "Your something special Phil Coulson you know that?"
Coulson blushed and chose not to reply. Instead he told me we were going out for dinner. At first I protested but he wasn't for having it and eventually I got ready. He took me to a fancy restaurant where he told me everything he had being doing in the last few years, he even filled me in on everything he had done to try and find Lily. But like me he was coming up blank. "I appreciate everything you have done really I do." I told him as we left the restaurant. "I will keep going Mel, like I said I will not stop!" he said. "Thanks Phil." I mumbled.
Phil nodded and waved me down a cab, "Well I guess this is it for another while." He said as one pulled up. "Yeah I guess so." I replied. "Mel I have something I need to tell you before I let you go." He said. "What is it?" I asked. "I got you a job, back at HQ. Nothing in the field, just at a desk until you are ready for something else. This way you will have access to all the files without having to pay someone to hack for you." He laughed. "I only did that once!" I smirked. "Yes I know, maybe someday you will have someone who can teach you?" he joked. "Or just do it for me?" I added. "Or that. So will you think about it? S.H.I.E.L.D misses you." He told me.
"I will think about it…..Thanks Phil." I replied. Phil hesitated a minute before giving me a quick hug, I got the feeling he wanted to do more I know I did. But he settled for a hug and I returned it as I got in the cab leaving Phil Coulson behind yet again…
Ok so that was chapter 8, hope you enjoyed :-) Until next time ;-)
