Hey everyone, sorry for the delay! Well the plot will thicken, and we may be close to a conclusion. Or if enough of you want a continuation, maybe a part two? You all can vote when the time comes. But now to the current Agents Of Shield episode. Well, as of the time of writing episode 13. Holy crap that was amazing and my feels and everything are just crazy. So can't wait for next weeks episode! But does anyone else have the opinion that the ships should be May/Coulson, Skye/Ward, and Fitzsimmons? Cause honestly those are the relationships I'm feeling the most. Just saying. But yeah, can't wait to see how everything unravels. Hope everyone had a nice valentines day, and if you were spending valentines alone, don't worry about it, I was too. If you want you can just say I was your valentine, and this chapter was written in your honor:)
Reviews are always greatly appreciated, as they make your authors day!

Fluorescent lights switched on, burning through Jemma's eyelids. She stood up shakily. She blinked, looking around her uncertainly. Had she been sleeping in the lab? She had. Raina glared at her from across the room, her hand resting on the light switch. "Have a good rest?" She asked through that sickly sweet tone of hers. Jemma glared at her blearily. "You wouldn't allow me to leave the lab" she answered bluntly. Raina shook her head, clucking her tongue in disapproval. "Well we couldn't have that, could we?" She said "We have knowledge that your team isn't going to stay put, so we need to move" Raina explained carefully, and Simmons could feel her watching her for a reaction to the news. Simmons hoped that the sudden rush of love for her team didn't register on her face.
She quickly turned back around. "The serum will take at least 48 hours to settle. Then I can administer the shot" Simmons said, her shoulders tense. "Thank you for your cooperation" Raina said as a way of departure. Simmons fought down a stinging reply. She could hear Raina opening the door to the lab. "After I administer the serum, you're letting me go, correct?" Simmons clarified. "Of course, we always honor our promises" Raina replied with just enough veiled venom to make Simmons stomach curl.
She shook her head, trying to fight off tears. "C'mon, Simmons, you'll be just fine" She told herself. Cause I'll be with you, the whole damn time, she could almost hear Leo telling, as he always did when she needed cheering up. She still wished he was here with her now, even if it was only t suggest she build a chariot and create flying monkeys via genetic splicing to ride her way out of where ever she was. That would be his plan.
She however, would have to settle for something else. She looked around the lab. They had cameras set up everywhere, and monitors on the cabinets where chemicals and sharp implements where kept. She doubted that a scalpel would do much good against a supersoldier anyway. They were to move soon anyway. She could easily leave a message for them, Fitz would pick it up, she knew he would. But how to leave it so that C.E.N.T.I.P.E.D.E. wouldn't realize it? And what could she leave to help them find her?
Raina glared at the man across from her. "This is throwing off our schedule! Can't we just leave her behind? She's made the serum" She matched her accusations with a well-placed glare. Her superior, looked at her calmly, his cool façade never cracking. "She needs to administer the serum first, then we will see". Rain held in the urge to scream. The scientist had no intentions of helping them any more than she had to, she had made that clear enough. But Mr. Cool, was eying her like prey, taking an interest in Ms. Simmons. And not her.
It killed her. She had worked so hard to get to where she was. She had done so much, to rise through the ranks as quickly as possible. The man was supposed to be interested in her, not this puny scientist who worked for the enemy. All her hard work, but for what? Not even a word of praise! She was so close, but yet so far from reaching the Clairvoyant, and this, this, girl was going to ruin her.
It was almost too much. She had to suppress her emotions, to not feel anything. The sooner she could get rid of the scientist, the better chance she had of arising to the next, higher level. The man raised an eyebrow. "You think I am ignoring you" He stated. She bristled, not liking the fact that he had seen through her so easily. "Do not worry, I have something planned for the scientist that I am sure you will like" He stated. Her mind ran through all the possibilities that he might have for the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, none of them being particularly nice. Which left quite a lot of possibilities.
Her mouth quirked upwards in semblance of a smile. "Should I assume that it'll painful for her?" She asked curiously, trying to hide her delight. The scientist was just a fling, and she, Raina, was here to stay for the long-term. He looked at her in mild curiosity. "In a physical sense, it will not be to painful" he allowed. "But?" Raina pushed, wanting to know more of his final plans for Ms. Simmons. "The reunion between her and her colleagues will be very, very painful. If only from an emotional and psychological aspect". Raina's mouth quirk became a fully fledged grin.
"Sounds lovely" she purred.
