Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I hope you enjoy this new chapter. It gets a little sad at the end and there is a small cliffhanger. Feel free to leave a comment. I can't improve unless I hear feedback.

Chapter 4

"As you already know, my name is Agent Leo Fitz, and my partner here is…" "Agent Jemma Simmons" Simmons finished for him.

"My name is Agent Phil Coulson."

"Agent Grant Ward,"

"Agent Malinda May,"

"And I am Skye." she finished.

It was nice to finally put a name to every single face on this stupid aircraft.

"My name is Patience. And I have a question. Do we have to use the lie detector?" I pause and wait for a response. Everyone just looks at each other "Okay, fine. Don't answer me." I say under my breath. I pause again, still waiting for something to happen. They were starting to fall under the scary silence as they were before. Again Leo Fitz broke the silence. "So, are you really an alien?" I roll my eyes. How much would it take for these SHIELD agents to believe that I was, in fact, an alien? "Yes, I am in fact an alien." I say, the line does not waver. "And my van over there, I use it to travel through space and time." I add slightly sarcastically, even though I was telling the truth. The rest of the people just rolled their eyes.

I got asked a few more general questions such as, where are you from, what is your species, why do you look like a human (I answered that one by saying, I don't look like you, you look like me. Time Lords came first), and why are you on earth? I answered all of the questions truthfully, but vaguely.

I was start to finally feel the questions die down a little, and I was getting my hopes up about finally earning some trust around here when Skye broke out the big guns. I guess she was just an expert in reading people and possibly, unintentionally pushing down all the right buttons.

"If you are really an alien," Skye started her question somewhat skeptical, "the why are you on earth? I mean, shouldn't you be at home, your home, enjoying life with your family?" I could feel my whole body freeze. I hardly ever thought about home, where I had spent the first twenty years of my life. I had pictures of my family along with little trinkets hidden away in some cupboard in the TARDIS, but I always got to teary eyed just at the thought of looking at them.

I lifted my hand up to my face to wipe away my tears that I could feel coming on. I could tell Skye felt bad, I mean she had asked a question, a good one at that, and I had started crying. "Do you mind if I… I had a little time to regain my composure?" I asked. My question was directed at Agent Coulson, but everyone nodded. For that I was happy.

Fitz and Simmons started to unhook me from the lie detector and Agent May handed me back my key to my van. I stood up from the hair that I was sitting in and started to make my way over to my TARDIS. I could tell that she was also hurting, because she was also one of the last TARDISes left in existence. Just me and my highly advanced time traveling van. I felt like I was going to be like that forever, although I didn't exactly mind.

I slide the key into the slot, and the door opened. I walked inside and shut it behind me, totally forgetting to take the key out of the lock. The main console was a dark blue with sadness. It was sad how close the colors of happiness and of sadness were so similar. As I loving rubbed my hand on the controls, I could feel the TARDISes soul comfort me back. We were always connected like that; we were always there for each other. I walked through the corridors and ended up at the cupboard where all those old memories where kept. I opened them up and pulled out a cardboard box.

When I made it to my room, I set the box on my dresser, and lay down in bed. Right before I fell asleep, I could feel some warm hands pull a blanket over my body and sit down on the edge of my bed. I didn't even have the brain power at the moment to even care who it was.
