Mack has had enough of people laughing about his soulmarks. Honestly he thought about the unicorns and after decades of thinking, Mack being the pragmatic one decided that his soul mark must be a, a big huge prank and his soul mates were huge pranksters which would lead to b, him killing both of his soul mates when he met them - because he had been teased for all his childhood for those soul marks.

When Thor crashed into earth, it revised his opinions. Maybe, just maybe it might be real unicorns. He had the off-chance of meeting Thor who then assured him that there were no such things as unicorns or unicorns with fangs. Thor boomed in laughter telling him that that was no such things in the nine realms. So Mack decided, it had to be a prank and he was so going to kill his goddamn soul mates.

It is a mission. Mack shouldn't be on a mission. He isn't a freaking field agent. He is a mechanical engineer which generally means he is stuck in the lab but for some weird reason Hartley had hustled him into following her on a field assignment. Just because he's big and strong from carrying vehicle parts, it doesn't not mean he can actually fight. He can fire a firearm with decent accuracy but one does not just have a decent accuracy in Shield missions.

However orders are orders and Mack has always been one to follow orders. As said, Mack is not a field agent. So when the screaming started, he does not run forward like some goddamn hero the way Hartley did or start aiming in the direction where the screaming is coming from like all the other agents did. He stands there in the middle of the hallway like a deer in headlights until he hears the stampede of boots and things rushing towards him and realizes that every other agent has already started running towards the exit. He sees Hartley at the back and the two other women running towards him.

The dark haired woman yells at him, "Run you idiot! Angry unicorns!"

"Please tell me you did not seriously say unicorns," he yelps as the tall blond haired woman literally grabs his arm and drags him along which is hilarious because he practically towers over the women.

"I could tell you they're not, but they really are! With fangs!" the other woman hollers at him.

The much shorter and scrawnier woman just behind the two women that had spoken his soul mark decides to correct them. "Technically Bobbi, they're horses that had been a genetic engineering gone wrong, they were supposed to be rhinos with horse stamina and personality. But it's gone all wrong! This is fascinating!"

"Helen- tell me if they're still fascinating when they eat you up!" The dark haired woman snorts.

"Please tell me you've figured how to deactivate the trigger sense!" The blond hair whom Mack identified as Bobbi snipes back. "We wouldn't even be in this situation if Skye hadn't gone I wonder what this button does."

"Well it was a red button!"

"And they're armor-plated horses with horns! With rhino strength!"

Helen fiddles more with the black device she's struggling with. "I'm a geneticist! Not a engineer who can fix a broken machine!"

Mack drags it out of her hand, screwdriver in his hand. Screws should be precisely screwed just as nuts and bolts but he can't exactly demand that at the moment so he does a slapdash job, hands piecing the broken wires and circuits. There's no helping the broken off chips but when he presses the buttons on the device, it works and right now, with the burning feeling in his chest and ache in his legs, that's all that matters. He tosses the machine to Helen and rapidly presses the buttons and the unicorns stop chasing them.

They stand there, clutching their knees, shoulders heaving. "P-please tell me we're not going for another marathon anytime soon," Mack gasps at his soulmates before sinking to the ground.

The two women glances at each other then back at him. "I didn't think that was considered a marathon," Bobbi laughs. "I'm Bobbi and it appears we're soulmates?"

"Skye, and I had an idea that those things were the referred unicorns."

"Skye," Bobbi frowns at her. "Tell me you didn't press the button because you thought we'd meet our other soulmate."

"But Bobbi! Unicorns!" Skye motions wildly at the unicorns that just seemed to wander about the hallway now.

"Name's Alphonso, but call me Mack." He pulls himself off the floor.

"Well Alfie," Skye begins.

"Alphonso or Mack but never Alfie," he frowns.

"Well Mack-ker-roo, it's so nice to finally meet you." Skye smiles.

"Why do I get the feeling that being around you two is going to be a lot like this."

The two women only grin widely and Helen mutters, "you have nooo idea."
