Sorry for not adding a chapter till now. It's been hard to figure out where I wanted this story to go.
I'll try to update as soon as I can.
Thx for all the favs and reviews.
The team finally back in the air, the bus was headed to a remote location to gather some intel for another mission. Jemma and Skye were sharing a pod, while Ward still felt that he had to watch over Jemma and would sometimes slept outside their pod. Jemma was getting through her trauma very well, but would still have nightmares every once in a while. Ward would run into the pod to comfort Jemma and some nights that worked, but others she would panic even more so and they would talk to her gently but not touch her. Fitz and Coulson both would hear the commotion and would pray that it wouldn't take long for Jemma to calm down; they both worried about her. Even May who planted a mic near Jemma and Skye's pod so that she would hear if Jemma had a nightmare; sometimes she would hear Jemma start to have a nightmare and would leave the cockpit to tell Ward so that he could go in and wake Jemma up. Skye was a deep sleeper and every once in a while wouldn't wake up until Ward was shaking her so that they both could help Jemma through her nightmare.
Everyone was still worried about Jemma, but they started to worry about Ward since he would barely sleep some nights because he was so worried that Jemma was going to wake up with another nightmare. May had even forced him into his pod a couple of times and would lock him in so that he would get some sleep. Ward was starting to be a great friend to all of the team and he was finally opening up about when he was younger and about what he'd been through in past years with SHIELD; he would talk about missions that weren't classified and need to know only.
So this mission was basically the same as when Jemma and Ward were taken, so Coulson was doing extra research about the area before anyone stepped into that area. Skye was doing a bunch of research to see if there were any groups in the area to be aware of or a person who could be a threat. May was circling the area looking for a good place to go that wasn't going to be too close, but close enough that they could get out in a hurry.
"Coulson the area looks to be clear except for the area they want us to check out. Nothing seems out of the normal for the town. They are sending us to a remote area to gathering information on a mountain." Skye said as she and the rest of the team gathered around the holotable.
"Good. Do any of the people have information about what's been going on near the mountain?" Coulson asked.
"No, I talk to some of the locals through phone calls and no one seems to know anything about something going on near the mountain." Jemma answered along with Fitz nodding.
"All right, May have you found us some place to land?"
"There is a field around 2.5 miles from the mountain where there's enough land and there's 5 miles till you're on the outskirts of town." May replied.
"Good land us there." Coulson said, "Once we get there Skye you and Ward will go into town and talk with some of the people. Fitz Simmons you, May, and I will check out the mountain's surrounding area."
"Yes sir." Fitz Simmons said together.
"We'll meet back here in three hours or sooner if needed. Keep the coms open."
"I'll go start packing the equipment." Fitz said as he left the holotable room.
"I'll get some weapons just in case." Ward said leaving.
"We'll be in my office when you're ready Simmons." Coulson said as he lead May to the stairs that lead up to his office.
Skye stayed in the room with Jemma, she knew that Jemma was worried by the look on her face as she stood close to her.
"Jemma everything will be fine." Skye said as she wrapped her arms around Jemma's waist.
"I know, I'm just scared." Jemma said softly wrapping her arms around Skye's neck.
"I know you're scared, but you don't have to worry. Ward and I will be fine. I will be able to make that special dinner I promised."
"Are you sure?"
"Jem I will always come home. Where ever you go you are my home and I'll always find you. We'll be home shortly."
"I love you."
"I love you too."
Skye then kissed Jemma softly on the lips to prove to her that she loved her; she wanted her to feel safe and to know that no matter what she was going to come home. Skye continued to kiss Jemma till Fitz appeared in the doorway; Skye smiled and turned to Fitz.
"Jemma are you ready?" Fitz said a little worried.
"Yeah I'm ready." Jemma answered.
"You might want to gather some supplies, Coulson said were leaving soon."
"Okay thanks Fitz."
"Yeah, no problem."
Fitz then left the doorway and headed back down to the lab, leaving Jemma and Skye for one more kiss before they went their separate ways; Skye to her bunk to gather things and Jemma to head down to the lab to gather some tools.
