A new team 34
(Present)
The President was awaiting Shadow's arrival as he argued with his head secret service agent "With all due respect Mr. President but everyone who visits you goes through thorough back ground checks and has to be checked before seeing you it's for your protection you can't trust everyone as you can be killed!" argued Agent Montoya and the President rolled his eyes " Jake this person isn't a threat she got shot protecting my son and myself and she deserves the benefit of doubt. She is welcome here and that's final ." he said with a authoritative and confident tone, the secret service agent groaned "Sir this is extremely dangerous!" Suddenly a feminine voice startled the secret service agent and his immediate reaction was to jump in front of the President and draw his weapon at the intruder " He is right Mr. President you have to choose who you can trust or else you could be harmed." Says Skye by the office door.
Jake firmly asked "How did you get past my security team?" Skye pursed her lips and took a step forward as she said "The same way I Protected the President when you failed to do so, the same way I rescued the President's son Sam getting shot in the process... My abilities. You can put the gun away I would never harm the president if I wanted that he would've been already." Jake narrowed his eyes not convinced and Skye sighed " I lost my arm because I swear my loyalty to this country and my friends... The organization that attacked today caused my major pain because of my loyalties... I got shot protecting the President for goodness sake. I am Shadow. Now get out of my way this is a emergency and you are preventing me from protecting the President further." she growled in warning and the President said "Jake stand down she won't harm me."
The head secret service agent reluctantly holstered his gun and stepped aside so Shadow and the President could speak " Mr. President I am glad you have not been harmed but I am afraid I bring bad news that I must discuss with you." Said Shadow moving to shake his left hand. "Of course Shadow. Jake leave us wait outside." The secret service agent opened his mouth to protest but Shadow interfered " Allow me " she said before transporting Agent Montoya outside the office and by the door. The President smiled before gesturing to take a seat on the nearby expensive sofa, Skye waited till he took a seat before she did as well. " Please Shadow tell me what this bad news is that you have to cut your recovery extremely short?" he asked politely, Shadow sighed "Mr. President there is still one person from the PROTECTOR's that has not been killed or arrested... If I can borrow your computer I can give you proof that he helped founded and has also bought poisons and various other things that will assure you of his allegiances." she replied the president went over to his computer and unlocked it for her before indicating to come over and show him.
Skye started going through various programs before pulling up funding records for the Vice President and shows the President that this person has been fully funding the terrorists for the last two years and two years prior partially funding "As you can see Mr. President this man has been funding the terrorists and if you let me change the screen his email and phone records show that he was in daily contact with Jacob the leader of the Protectors." she said with a frown as she started pulling up purchases and such. The President was furious as he asked "Who's account is this Shadow?! Who hasn't been locked up?" Shadow completely tensed before facing the President emotion wiped from her face and replied " Vice President Nathan Marks... Sir the deal was that he would take over as President after your death and declare SHIELD and the Avengers terrorists... He wanted to keep people like me Sir on a leash or dead. They had plans that would cause a civil war and if they had succeeded I would be dead. Sir your Vice President is the last PROTECTOR left." The President stood still in shock before he asked " What!? ... Shadow are you sure?"
Skye stood up and straightened "Sure enough to complete ignore my doctors orders and come down here to protect you and your son Sir." she replied with a serious tone. The President slams his fist on the table in rage as he yells "Agent Montoya !" The secret service agent burst through the door ready to shoot anyone ready to cause danger to the President. "Sir?" He asked directing his attention to his charge who quickly replied "Get the Vice President in here with six of your men immediately." The agent walked out the door and started to talk into his coms. Shadow remained impassive as he said " Shadow I want you to get him to admit to it in front of all of us... You have my permission to do anything deemed necessary except kill him... Understood?" he gave her a stern look and she nodded in agreement.
Five minutes later Vice President Nathan Marks entered followed by six secret service agents, " Mr. President you called for me? What's going on John?" asks Vice President Nathan Marks looking at his bosses tense demeanor, "Nathan ... Shadow here is going to ask you a couple questions and you will answer like your life depends on it because it does." says The President arms crossed and eyes narrowed. Shadow stepped forward and asked "Have you ever had any contact with Jacob S. Peters?" the Vice President gulped and "No... John what is this?!" he asked and The President frowned looking away from him as Shadow spoke " That's a lie... You work for the PROTECTORS don't you?" Nathan's eyes widen as he growled "you dare accuse me of being part of the assassination attempt on the President?! You have no proof and no right !" he looked to her murderously as he got in her face.
Skye's hand clenched into a fist as she growled "I have every right! Your terrorist organization has tried to kill me multiple times! You terrorists took my arm from me and tortured me greatly because of my loyalty to my friends and country!" Her hand began to sizzle as electricity surged in her hand as she got in his face and continued "Now are you going to tell us who you are or am I going to have to Fry you?!" she brought her electrified hand a mere centimeter from his face letting him see her electricity run up and down her arm. "Guards stop her !" he commands looking to the Secret Service but after a quick look from the President they remained impassive and unmoving completely ignoring the Vice Presidents command. Shadow brought a electrified finger to the Vice Presidents neck and he started to groan as pain ran up and down his neck "Say it!" she growled and finally he broke as she pushed her finger deeper into his skin " I work for the a PROTECTORS I was suppose to take over as President once he was killed! PLEASE STOP!" he exclaimed and Shadow smirks. "Vice President Nathan Marks you are under arrest for treason and Conspiracy. Jake take him out of here and give him to SHIELD." Says The President as Nathan is pulled away "Noooooo! John I never wanted any of this to happen! You have to believe me please!" he yelled but it went to deaf ears.
As soon as the Secret Service dragged the Vice President from the Oval Office Skye looked to the sadden President and said "I am sorry sir I know you two were childhood friends." her voice full of sadness and The President pinched the bridge of his nose before replying " It's fine Shadow... You have down your country a great job. I want to set up a couple press conferences in a week or two and I also want to give you metal."
