Codename: Battleship

Spoilers: AU but can consider all Season One episodes. Read Battleship: SHIELD to understand or you WILL BE LOST.

Disclaimer: I own nothing at all except Naomi and Hoenir

Skye allowed herself to take a deep breath and open her eyes long enough to look in the mirror. Looking at the woman in the mirror she found a vision unlike anything seen before in her life. The woman that was staring her back in the face was her own image but at the same time wasn't. Smiling she let her hands smooth out the dress and turned slightly to see the back. The dress she'd chosen had been simple and sweet, nothing outrageous or expensive because that wasn't who she was.

A knock on the door made her realize that the time was almost upon her that she would no longer be just Skye Zale but Skye Zale Ward, a wife as well as a mother. The door opened and Simmons slipped in with Naomi in front of her, both smiled at her.

"Absolutely breathtaking." Simmons smiled and nodded, "I think Ward will lose his ability to form words once he sees you."

"Mommy you look perfect." Naomi smiled and jumped in place.

Skye smiled and looked down, "you don't think it's too much?"

"I'd be more concerned that it's too little." May spoke as she slipped into the room. "I almost expected bigger but you got it right."

Looking back in the mirror Skye nodded, "I just saw it and knew, this is the dress."

Another knock and Coulson slipped in, a smile seemed to take over his face. "Beautiful."

"Is it time?" Skye turned to them and Coulson only smiled at her. "I guess we should get this show on the road. I mean, we have a birthday this evening and a mission in Istanbul tomorrow."

The deck of the Helicarrier was cleared for the ceremony and a white carpet lay between rows and rows of chairs. Despite wanting something small in one of the many SHIELD conference rooms across the globe, Hill wasn't having it and insisted that it be on the Helicarrier. Skye hadn't known what to expect but when Coulson lead her down the carpet towards the 'altar' she was surprised to say the least.

At the end by Hill stood Ward with Fitz beside him and on the other side of Hill was Simmons and May with Naomi. Skye could only smile as Ward stared at her, transfixed by the image before him and it made her happy knowing she could still surprise him after nearly two years of engagement. Mission after mission having prevented their weddings but they didn't care because they knew they'd get there one day.

Reaching the altar, Coulson placed her hand in Wards and kissed her cheek before moving to sit down beside Fury and May. Hill looked between them and shook her head softly as if in disbelief.

"If you had told me a few years ago that I'd be standing on the deck of the Helicarrier officiating a wedding I'd probably have shot whoever said it." Almost everyone chuckled, "but today I am honored to officiate this wedding that binds two agents together in more than a partnership for SHIELD. Today we will witness the binding of Agent Skye Zale and Agent Grant Ward in marriage." She looked at all the agents and guests, "I'll tell you all now if you object, I have someone prepared to shoot you so refrain if you value your lives." Everyone seemed to crack up and Hill rolled her eyes. "You wrote your own vows so Skye why don't you go first."

Skye squeezed Ward's hand and smiled at him. "Life has an interesting way of giving you exactly what you need. I grew up with nothing and no one and I thought I'd never have a family. I accepted that and decided to run with it and I ran far but there you were one day, throwing a bag over my face and dragging me onto a plane that is now our home." Ward seemed to smile as she spoke. "I was alone in my life without a family but I know that from now on I won't be. You've become a part of my family and I vow to become a part of yours. I couldn't trust anyone but now I can trust you as you trust me. I felt fear and pain but I no longer feel those because you are there to comfort me as I will comfort you. Grant Ward, I swear from this day forth that I shall cherish each moment of life with you, abandon all thoughts of others and stay beside you in all events of life until my last breath."

Ward looked to Hill and she nodded so he squeezed Skye's hand. "The first day I saw you I thought you were an ass despite Coulson adding an E-T at the end of that word." Skye laughed softly. "I didn't know that an obnoxious hacker would become the very essence of my life. Who would make me laugh and smile, giving me a reason to live each day instead of placing my life before SHIELD and letting them decide what to do with me." His eyes watered slightly as he spoke, "most of all you've given me a family when I didn't have one. Skye Zale, I swear from this day forth to stand beside you in all aspects of life, to cherish each second we have together and to abandon all thoughts of others. I am yours as you are mine and till the last breath leaves my body, I am devoted to you my angel."

Hill smiled and nodded, "you've spoke these vows before witnesses and SHIELD itself so we consider them binding and legal." She looked to Fitz then Simmons, "the rings." Fitz handed Ward a ring and Simmons handed Skye one. "These rings symbolize your union to each other, repeat after me please. With this ring I bind myself to thee."

Skye took Ward's hand and slid the ring onto his finger, "with this ring I bind myself to thee."

"With this ring I bind myself to thee." Ward slipped the band onto Skye's finger beside her engagement ring.

"I'd ask if anyone objects but I warned everyone beforehand." Hill looked at the couple and at the audience. "By the power vested in me as Director of SHIELD, I pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride."

Ward pulled Skye in and kissed her, she pulled back with a smile. "You're stuck with me Robot."

"Like I wasn't already." He kissed her again.

"Alright, wedding's over so everyone back to work." Hill spoke and everyone stood to either go back to work or congratulate the couple. Hill shook their hands, "congratulations, I'll see you two tomorrow at 0800 for that briefing for Istanbul so don't be late."

"Yes ma'am."

Sitting around the Bus' living room, everyone watched as Naomi sat on the floor with a pile of gifts in front of her. Ward and Skye sat together with flutes of champagne in their hands and a pile of cards in Skye's lap. The wedding had given way to a birthday party for Naomi but it included a shared cake in the shape of a battleship. It had been a bit of a joke from Coulson but no one seemed to say anything when eating the chocolate cake.

"Who is it from?" Skye asked her daughter as she took one of the wrapped boxes.

Naomi read the tag and smiled, "Melly." She looked over at May with a grin, the Calvary had become 'Melly' due to the girl's inability to call May by her first name. No one dared call her anything but her last name except Naomi.

Opening the box Naomi pulled out a pair of child size yoga pants and a shirt. "They're for defense training, we'll start doing some basics soon."

"Cool!" Naomi got up and hugged May, the woman melted and smiled as soon as she held the girl in her arms. "Thank you."

"You are welcome."

"Open mine next." Coulson laid out the offer and Naomi searched through the pile to find a small box wrapped in blue wrapping paper with a red bow. Tearing off the paper she opened the box to find a necklace inside. "It's a locket, if you open it you'll find a picture of your parents."

"Bring it here Cherub." Ward leaned forward and Naomi walked over with the necklace, he helped her put it on. "What do you tell Uncle Phil?"

Naomi walked over and hugged their lead agent, "thank you, it's beautiful."

"I thought you'd like it."

The rest of the gifts were toys and books as well as a robot building kit that Skye bought for Naomi to do with Fitz. After Naomi finished her gifts, it left the couple to open their own pile of cards.

"Okay, Hill gave us some type of certificate." Skye turned the paper over as Ward read the card and she laughed. "One free 'Get-out-of-a-Mission' Card, good for refusal of a mission without consequences."

Half the team laughed and Coulson shrugged, "you have to wonder if she has a sense of humor or not."

"Last one." Ward held up a blank envelope, "no name or who it's from." Opening the card he paused and Skye bit her lip as she watched him process the card. "Congratulations on your next adventure: Fatherhood." Everyone seemed to be silent and Skye tried not to smirk till he saw her face. "Wait, are…"

Skye nodded, "yeah, Jemma confirmed it last week. We're already two months in…"

"Really?" She continued to nod and he pulled her into a hug. "We're having a baby!"

"We're having a baby." She kissed him and smiled, "we got a miracle."

A/N: Who liked that little surprise at the end?

Next is the epilogue and the last chapter, sorry but there's not much left to do with this one. If you want to see Skye's wedding dress, there is a link on my profile as well as a picture of what I imagine Naomi looks like.
