"Release the hounds"
Coulson set of from his sprinters start. His position made it very easy for him to duck under the painstakingly slow rising gate.
Coulson ran.
As he did he tried to block out the snarling and barking of the dogs chasing him. He willed his legs to run faster, but his standard issue suit was preventing him from doing so.
But, the hounds were gaining on him.
For every stride he took towards his goal the hounds took two strides towards him.
He was getting closer to the ladder. He was about five metres away when he felt the hot breath of the first dog on the back of his legs.
Throwing caution to the wind, Coulson leaped for the ladder and was surprised when his hands grasped a rung. He climbed it as fast as he could; only slowing when he was out of reach of the snapping jaws of the dogs.
Coulson clung to the ladder for dear life while he got his breath back and he stopped shaking.
Five minutes later Coulson climbed the rest of the way up the ladder. When he got to the top he swung a leg over the way and was surprised to find something relatively solid underneath his foot.
He realised it was a stack of hay bales forming steps to the top of the wall.
"Damn." Coulson exasperated as he realised he was trapped in a giant cage.
"Great, just what we needed right now. A huge creepy house!" Fitz pointed out sarcastically.
"It's just a house Fitz." May told him.
"With cobwebs and who know what else."
"It only looks scary because you're scared." Ward told him through his still chattering teeth.
"We should get this over with." Skye said. She agreed with Fitz. This house looked creepy.
As a group they approached the house and tried the door. It wouldn't move so May used her martial arts skills to try and kick it down. It wouldn't move.
May looked at Ward, who then tried to run at it and hit it with his shoulder. He felt it move a little, but the door didn't give.
Skye, Fitz and Simmons searched the area for a key while May and Ward tried various physical assaults on the door.
Finally the door opened revealing a small room, with one, solitary, bare lightbulb swinging around in the middle of it.
The team went into the room and the door slammed behind them.
"Ok. I'm with Fitz. This is really creeping me out." Skye said looking at the walls.
They were filthy and were covered in what Skye hoped was slime and red paint.
May and Ward approached the table to find a number of photographs. These photos were all different.
Fitz and Simmons were inspecting the room and pulled on a curtain. This curtain fell away from the ceiling to reveal the words 'a picture paints a thousand words' behind it. They looked at each other wondering what it would be that they had to do.
"Let's go." Ward said as he noticed an opening half hidden in the corner of the room.
He led the team through it and down a small, badly lit corridor, which then opened out into another room which had five chairs in a circle facing the walls. These chairs each had their own buzzer type button next to it.
"I think we need to sit" Simmons said, inspecting the chair nearest to her.
"I concur." Fitz agreed.
So each of them took a seat.
"now what?" asked May.
Skye reached forward and hit her buzzer, which caused sparks of electric to fly out of a generator and a mild shock through all of their chairs.
"OW!"
"What the hell?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"I'm going to kill whoever caused that."
"Sorry guys!" were the shouts and cries from the team.
