A.N.: Hey Guys! It's me with new chapter for all of you ;D
I know that I'll be repeating myself but I have to say: THANK YOU! I was overwhelmed with the response that I got for last chapter. It still amazes me – every time I got notification that someone actually likes my story. It makes me want to write more.

Disclaimer: I don't own Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. or any of the amazing characters from the show, however I do own Agent Kate Morris and nurse that will appear in this chapter.

Chapter 3 – I think we have a problem

Kate rushed to the hospital. When she got there, she immediately wanted to see Skye, but they wouldn't let her – she wasn't a relative. So Kate did the only thing that she could think of – she flashed her S.H.I.E.L.D. badge in front of nurse's face.

Woman at first shocked (she knew what S.H.I.E.L.D. was but had no idea that this poor girl from accident could've been connected to them somehow); she quickly regained her composure and led Kate to Skye's room.

While walking, nurse also filled Kate in all of the information they now knew about Skye's current condition.

Kate found out that Skye was transported here about half an hour ago, that she hit her head pretty badly and that now they were doing MRI and CTR to eliminate any major brain damage apart from concussion that they already knew she had. Due to x-rays scan they found out she twisted her wrist and cracked some of her ribs, but, as nurse told her – it was not as bad as it sounded. They also had to examine her more and run some tests to also eliminate any internal damage such as bleeding.

What was weird and nurse told about it Kate right away, was that only Skye was hurt in this accident. Taxi driver or truck driver, they were completely fine, not a single bruise or scratch.

'Shit' Kate cursed under her breath.

Now Morris was sure that Skye's accident was supposed to only look like an accident. And right now Kate was in even more trouble, because she not only had to call Coulson and tell him about everything but also Director Fury himself. If she was honest, that guy scared the crap out of her, this all leather and eye patch…

'Agent Morris?' Nurse asked, snapping Kate out of her thoughts. 'We're here.'

They were standing in front of a white door.

'Thank you' Kate stepped in, but she only saw some machines, not even a bed in this room and, most importantly, no sign of Skye.

'Umm, I think we're in a wrong room… Where's Skye?'

'Oh, it's the right room' she smiled. 'I think Miss Ward isn't back from her MRI yet.'

'Oh… okay.'

'Do you know any of her relatives that we could call?' Nurse asked.

'I'll take care of it myself' Kate forced a small smile.

When nurse left room Kate pulled out her phone, took a deep breath and dialed number. She gulped and waited for someone to answer it.

'Phil are you sure you want me to set coordinates for New York?' May asked for the third time. 'Fury's there. Who would be better to watch Tomas Adams than him?'

May was sitting on a couch in Coulson's office. He appeared in the doorway to his bedroom (yeah, Coulson was "the boss" so he had real bedroom, not a tiny bunk like rest of the team, but full sized bedroom with private bathroom; when Skye was still on the team she made comments from time to time about how unfair it was) with loosened tie.

'We'll just watch him for a day or two, that's it and then we're head back here – to Malibu' he disappeared again in his bedroom.

May got up and sighed. 'Fine.'

She was about to leave when she heard Coulson's phone ringing.

'Phil' she called. 'Your phone is ringing.'

'Check who it is, Mel' he called back.

May picked up phone with S.H.I.E.L.D. logo on it and looked at screen, it said KATE MORRIS.

Isn't that a little late to call your boss at this hour? May thought and shouted to Coulson 'It's Morris!'

'Then answer it and put her on loudspeaker!' Phil shouted back.

'Agent Morris, why are you calling us at this hour?' May was not in the mood for nice greetings.

"Agent May?" Woman asked, sounding slightly surprised. "I thought I was calling Agent Coulson's number…"

'Oh you did' Coulson was now back in his office. 'May just happen to be in my office at this moment.'

"Oh, okay" Kate said. "Coulson… Sir… there's something I have to tell you…"

'Is it about Adams' family?' May asked.

"No…" Kate trailed off. "It's about Skye…"

Ward wanted to talk with Coulson about his last mission that he almost failed to accomplish. He knew that because of Skye, or more likely lack of Skye on team, he surely could be compromised easily on every future mission.

Grant was constantly thinking about her. He read all reports from Agent Morris at least ten times. He was convincing himself all the time that he will bring Skye back on the Bus and that until then she was safe and happy.

But he knew, that until Skye will be back with them, he won't be able to completely focus on his missions, that's why he wanted to have an honest conversation with his boss and maybe take some break...

Ward was about to knock on the door to Coulson's office when he saw that the door weren't actually closed – there was small crack. He saw May and Coulson bending over a small device that looked like phone.

Then Grant heard Agent Morris' voice "It's about Skye."

His heart started beating rapidly – Morris was talking to Coulson and May about Skye.

He didn't want to eavesdrop, but at the same time he wanted to know what they were talking about, so instead of going into Coulson's office he listened carefully to what they were talking about that included his Rookie.

Coulson and May shared concerned look.

'What's going on with Skye?' Coulson asked. 'Morris, we were talking about an hour ago, maybe less, you told me that Skye was going home safely. What changed since that moment?'

"Umm, well… there was an accident…" Morris trailed off.

May looked worriedly at Coulson, who know sat in his chair, shock registered on his face. 'Please, don't tell us that Skye was involved…'

"I'm sorry, Sir, I thought she'll be okay, I mean in two years nothing happened, she didn't even cut her finger and we were taking cooking class…" Kate was now talking rapidly.

'Are you with her now, Morris?' Coulson asked tiredly. He thought that he was going to have nice night; he just wanted to watch a movie or read a book - relax a little. Was that really too much to ask for?

"Yes, I mean, I'm waiting for her in her room, they took her for some more tests."

'Where are you, Morris? Which hospital?' May asked

"We're in St Anne's Hospital."

'We'll be there in an hour' Coulson said getting up and heading to his bedroom to put back his tie and jacket on.

"Coulson, but… there's more…" Morris started again.

'What do you mean by saying there's more?' Coulson was now even more worried. He hurried back to his desk.

"When I told you it was an accident… I don't really think it was an accident, Coulson" Kate started explaining. "Only Skye is injured, two other men are perfectly fine – not even single scratch or bruise… it might look like an accident, but I'm almost 100 % sure that it wasn't…"

May sucked air loudly, from the beginning, she had bad feeling about this situation, but was hoping that she was wrong… until now.

Coulson straightened in his seat and picked up his phone, turning off loudspeaker.

'Have you called Fury already?' Coulson's voice was firm. He was now back in his Agent-Coulson-I'm-pretty-serious-about-my-work mode.

There was pause, before he responded again. 'Good, don't call him, yet.' (Pause) 'No- Morris, I'll speak with him.' (Pause) 'We're taking over this case.' (Pause) 'No- we'll be there in two hours top' and with that he hung up.

May looked at him puzzled.

'Why don't you want her to call Fury?'

'Call him yet, I told her to give us some time, we'll go there, see what happened and then we call Fury.'

At that moment there was loud knocking to Coulson's office.

'Come in.'

In doorway stood Simmons, behind her was Fitz, panting heavily.

'Sir' she started. 'I think we have a problem.'

'What now?' Coulson sighed heavily, rubbing back of his neck.

'Ward–' Fitz started, clutching his sides.

'–he's gone.' Simmons finished.

A.N.: Sooo that's it for this chapter… poor A.C. all he wanted was to have a nice night with a movie or a book…
what do you think about it? Leave me some of your thoughts ;]
Until next chapter,
