A/N: Hi guys thanks for reading this. I ended up writing it so I still had some AoS in my life anyway enjoy :) x
Mack's POV:
Breathing, hurts; moving, hurts; I try to sit up but a burning pain shoots through my chest causing me to lay back down and grunt in pain.
Simmons runs into the medical pod and gives me a scolding look, I just smile back.
"You need to stop moving Mack"
"I know I just hate sitting in this room"
"Well at least try, some is here to keep you company and maybe you will stay here."
Before Mack can ask who said person walks in,
"Yo-yo! What are you doing here?"
"They called me in" Elaina says in a thick Spanish accent. "I feel I need to apologies for the last time we see each other."
"I'm sorry to Yo-yo. It hurt me to do what we did but we had to" I lower my head not being able to look her in the eye. I feel her move around the bed, she puts her hand under my chin and forces me to look at her.
"It's okay Mack I forgive you, I understand why you did it." I just look at her she is the definition of kindness, able to see good in any situation. "Some people don't think they need forgiveness but they do" Yo-yo says softly before sitting down in the chair next to me.
Over the next few days we are still looking for any sign of Daisy or hive but nothing has popped up, it's as if they've just disappeared.
Jemma finally lets me start moving around the base with some help from Elaina, I was just grabbing an ice pack from the freezer when Coulson runs into the room.
"We have her location; I need to run things till I get back."
He's off, I head towards the director's office to coordinate the ground team if things go wrong.
Watching as Coulson and May's heat signatures make their way towards the last known location of Hive and Daisy. They know it's likely a trap, Coulson wouldn't let anyone go however May was going no matter what the director said.
Nothing seems to be going wrong on the mission but the two-man team haven't found anything.
I glance over to the monitors of the base and see… 'shit' I think.
"Ragtag to Alpha team, mission compromised, target on base, return home. Over." I say over coms calling back the team.
"copy that on the move contain till our arrival over and out" I hear the Director reply.
Slowly and methodically, I make my way down stairs towards the lab. In the common room I see a figure on the floor.
"Yo-yo" I whisper, placing my fingers on her neck, I can feel a pulse but she's knocked out.
When I reach the lab I pull my weapon and enter making no noise.
What I see is a friend trying to kill another. Daisy stands there both hands extended one pointing at Simmons using pulses to keep her pinned down and one towards Fitz vibrating his neck crushing it causing him to have trouble breathing.
Raising my weapon, I aim at Daisy forcing myself to harm a friend to save two others. I fire once hitting her square in the back flinging her forward.
Fitz falls to the ground gasping for air, Simmons rushes over to him making sure he's okay. Once Simmons knows Fitz is alright she walks over to one of the cases in the lab and opens it pulling out a pair of gloves. She waves me over and I help Simmons turn Daisy over and fit the gloves as the blue skin colour the ICER gives, wears off.
"What are they Simmons?" I ask curiosity in my gaze
"There inhibitors, better than the original, shouldn't cause any long term damage and will stop her causing any damage with her powers"
"She's still dangerous without her powers"
I go to put Daisy on my shoulder but Simmons stops me. Fitz has got up and helps me lift Daisy to vault D. Placing her on the bed and while Fitz makes it secure I leave to go see if May and Coulson are back yet.
When I get upstairs I see Coulson talking to Simmons so I make my way over.
"Director she's in vault D sleeping off an ICER"
"Good I don't want any one down there unless I say, we need to find a way to release her from the sway" Coulson tells us as May and Lincoln join the conversation.
"You got her, thank god. Sir I need to go see her," Lincoln says.
"Not yet Lincoln, work with Fitzsimmons to find a way to break the connection to hive."
"Actually about that," An English accent says, "We've found a way that should work but it would involve… killing her to break the connection then injecting her with a serum we created that should kill Hives parasites then resuscitate her the other option I don't recommend it involves sending a high voltage current though her brain that might kill her."
"No, you'll have to find another way." Coulson walks off may and I close behind.
Nobody's POV
Coulson, May and Mack leave the lab and head towards Coulson's office.
Fitzsimmons and Lincoln stat working on different theory's on how to keep Daisy alive but release her from Hives sway. For 24 hours they work with no success, the trio were getting restless, whatever they tried the results were never wat they wanted.
Finally, Coulson comes into the lab telling Fitzsimmons to take a break, Lincoln looks expectantly at the director, Coulson just gives him the 'follow me' nod.
They end up in Coulson's office, on the screen is video of Daisy's cell.
"Lincoln there seems to be no cure but we believe that Daisy may give out information without knowing it… by talking to you."
"Okay, what do you need to know?" Lincoln asks trying to hid his smile,
"Anything about hive" the director responds,
With that Lincoln nods and leaves the office heading towards vault D.
Lincolns POV
I slowly open the door and step inside then close the door behind me sending low voltage shock freezing the lock. I start to descend the stairs taking in her looks.
She stares at me with wide eyes as I make my way towards the laser grid separating her from me.
I sit down in the chair and we just look at each other till she breaks the silence.
"Lincoln" she all be breaths
"Daisy I'm going to come in there with you okay" I pick up the tablet and open the laser grid; looking back at where the security camera is.
When I enter Daisy stays still but never taking her eyes off me, when I sit down at the table she finally moves and sits down opposite me.
Daisy you do get what we're trying to help you. We would … I would never lie to you"
"Lincoln don't bullshit me about not trying to hurt me all for my protection, Shield are just scared that I have a connection with Hive that I've never felt with them. You could have that connection."
"No Daisy I don't want it, what your saying isn't your own words but the sway of Hive."
"You don't get it, but you will. A world inhuman's deserve, it's our destiny. You said it yourself you've always felt an emptiness; well he fills it giving a connection we've both sought after."
"I can't do this" I mumble under my breath.
I raise my hand and shock out the cameras in the room; Daisy just sits their slight confusion on her face.
"Forgive me" still looking at me her face etched with confusion.
I fire a ball of lightening knocking Daisy out of her chair and sending her across the room. I run over and crouch next to her placing my hands either side of her head, I send a high voltage charge through her brain trying to target where Jemma said Hives parasites live.
I then start to shock her chest trying to simulate her heart coupled with CPR, I can hear the team forcing their way into the vault all shouting. I ignore them as I do 10 more compressions and 2 more shocks.
Daisy takes a deep breath and I sigh with relief falling back from her as she pushes herself up and towards the wall, hugging her knees.
When the laser barrier is down two agents drag me off and I let them Daisy's alive that's all that matters.
Nobody's POV
As Lincoln is dragged from vault, Jemma starts to look over Daisy who flinches from the contact.
"Can all no essential personal leave" Simmons shouts over the noise. 1 by 1 they leave her and Daisy alone. Coulson is standing at the base of the stairs before Simmons tells him to leave as well.
"Daisy look at me I need to make sure okay after that stupid stunt Lincoln pulled didn't do any damage." Daisy flinches back again and looks at Jemma with scared and confused eyes.
"Who's Daisy? Where am I? Who are you?"
