With her hands stroking Sienna's brown her gently, Daisy leaned forwards to make sure that Sienna was fully asleep, she didn't want to leave her alone if she wasn't sleeping. ''Good.'' Daisy whispered to herself, a smile lingered on her face as she walked as silently as possible towards the door. With one last look at her sleeping beauty, Daisy shut the door behind her, entering the hallways of the playground. The hallway wasn't filled with agents like it normally was, someone must have given out an order to stay away from Daisy's room by the looks of it.
As soon as Daisy entered the medical part of the base, she feared that she'd see her best friend in a lot of pain. ''Hey, how are you feeling?'' Daisy questioned cautiously as Simmons came into view. She was laying in her bed and Fitz was there again, holding her limp hand. Simmons' hair was tied up into a neat ponytail and she was wearing a fresh medical gown that was designed for patients.
Simmons greeted her with a huge smile, ''I'm okay. Fitz told me the news, you found her!'' She excitedly said, almost jumping out of bed.
Daisy smiled painfully at the reaction she had just received, ''Careful, you're gonna hurt yourself.'' She warningly said with a slight smirk. Simmons hadn't stopped smiling ever since Fitz told her the good news, she was eager to meet little Sienna and eager to see how happy Daisy was.
''It's okay,'' Simmons said again, completely brushing off Daisy's warning, ''It doesn't hurt anymore.''
Fitz sighed from beside her, ''There she goes, lying again.'' He said, shaking his head from side to side slowly in disapproval of her lies. Simmons had to hold back the urge to roll her eyes, but she'd be lying if she said she didn't like Fitz being so protective. ''I'm fine, honestly.'' She reassuringly said.
''I told Sienna that we'd get a monkey...'' Fitz whispered out of nowhere just to lighten up the mood while he rested his head on his hand.
Daisy rolled her eyes playfully, ''Yeah, thanks for that.''
Fitz and Jemma chuckled before Jemma painfully grabbed her stomach, Fitz instantly stood up from the chair, causing it to nearly fall over because of the force. ''Are you okay?'' Fitz and Daisy asked in unison, earning a slight nod from the scientist.
''Yes, yes, I'm fine.'' She said, ''It's just the stitches.'' Fitz eyed her carefully before sitting back down.
Daisy pointed to the door and looked back at Jemma, ''If you're sure that you are alright I'll get going in case Sienna decides to wake up.'' Daisy hesitantly said, she didn't want to leave her best friend like that, but she was sur Jemma wouldn't mind.
Jemma nodded, ''Yes I'm fine,'' She said with the biggest smile of all, ''Make sure you bring her here tomorrow.''
Daisy nodded and exited, her eyes started becoming heavier by each blink, she was getting tired too. With a big, loud yawn, she opened the door to her room only to reveal a beautiful sight in front of her that she had wanted to see for so long. Sienna was sleeping in such peace that it was hard not to admire. She had the blanket wrapped around herself whilst she held the corner tightly which usually resembled a toy for a lot of kids. Daisy smiled for a long moment before she decided to move and go to sleep.
As she got into the bed, Daisy prayed silently that Sienna would not wake up in the middle of the night and start freaking out. As much as Daisy wanted to hug her long missing daughter, she refused, knowing that it was for the best at that moment. She was going to take things slowly and steadily, it didn't matter to her that the process of bonding might be slow, what mattered to her was that her daughter was by her side, just as it was supposed to be years ago.
Daisy's eyelids fell down heavily and she was soon engulfed by the darkness that surrounded the whole room.
Her eyes shot open upon hearing Sienna scream horrifically, it sounded like the little girl was being tortured. She quickly rolled onto her side, turning towards the direction where her daughter was supposed to lay. Empty. That side of the bed was empty and cold as if not a soul had ever laid there. Daisy snapped her head towards the direction of the ear piercing scream, it wasn't the dangerous inhuman scream, it was just a scream of a little girl that sounded to be in danger.
The action was right in front of her. The first thing-or rather person that Daisy's eyes had fixated on was Phoebe with a bloodied, bruised face. An evil grin rested on her face as she slowly backed away to the side, revealing Sienna tied to a wooden chair. A knife was stuck right in between her fingers, sharp and deadly. Daisy jumped out of her bed only to be met with an object. Her body was throw back into the bed painfully, she stood up again and slowly attempted to get out of the bed despite the evil grin Phoebe had on her face.
Daisy was met with something in front of her again, it was a wall. An invisible wall that prevented her from moving any further. ''What the f-'' Daisy's confused tone was quickly cut off by another scream. Her head snapped up only to see blood gushing from every corner of the room, she looked at the chair that Sienna was supposed to sit in but it was all gone except for the bloody knife that was placed into the floorboard.
''HELP ME!'' The voice of her little girl yelled, ''HELP ME!''
Daisy shook her head, looking towards every direction possible.
''Help me.'' Sienna repeated again, Daisy jumped up from the pillow with red, wide eyes.
''Just a dream...'' Daisy whispered to herself before allowing her head to drop back into the soft, white pillow. She then turned to Sienna sleepily, remembering her calm pleads for help.
''You said I could ask you for help anytime...'' Sienna shyly began and drifted her gaze down, ''And then you said you would help me...''
Daisy sat up and rubbed her eyes, a small smile rested on her sweaty face. The nightmare really did get to her. ''Of course I will help you,'' She said, cautiously looked around the room just for confirmation that the nightmare had ended, ''What do you need help with?''
Sienna pointed towards her shoes, the undone, long laces were hanging around the floor and Daisy nodded, ''Okay,'' She began whilst shifting her body closer to her daughter, she picked up one of the laces, then another one, ''Watch carefully, it's pretty easy once you get the hang of it.''
Daisy crossed them together before making them into a ribbon sort of shape, she put one of the sides through the loop before gently finishing by tightening it up. ''And that's it.'' She said in a proud sounding tone, she turned her head to look at Sienna and found her with a confused look.
''I don't get it...'' Sienna shyly whispered. Daisy nodded with yet another proud smile.
''It's okay, it happens. You have to try it a couple of times before you get something.'' Daisy said and realized how true her words were. Sienna nodded with a determined look on her face before stopping, a frown formed on her lips and she shook her head, ''I forgot how to do it.'' Sienna admitted and Daisy chuckled out of pure happiness. She was glad that she was still able to teach her daughter something before she didn't grow up.
''Alright, how about I talk you through and you do what I say?'' Daisy suggested, it wasn't a bad idea but she turned to Sienna for confirmation, the young girl nodded. ''Okay, cross the two ends of the lace...''
It took Sienna about minutes to completely learn the technique, as soon as she got it for the second time she jumped out of joy. ''I did it! I did it!'' Sienna said with yet another jump. Daisy laughed as a feeling of happiness entered her system, she did not want to feel unhappy ever again.
Daisy looked at her daughter and realized that she had put on her old, dirty clothes. ''Hey...'' Daisy grabbed the joyful girl's attention, ''How about we go for a little shopping and then we can visit auntie Jemma.'' Daisy said with a smirk.
Sienna nodded with excitement, it was if she had completely forgotten last nights events. But that was good, Daisy didn't want her daughter to remember the pure horrors. ''We can buy a monkey!'' Sienna excitedly exclaimed, probably louder than she should have.
Daisy sighed, ''Thanks, Fitz.'' She silently said before placing her hand on Sienna's, they both walked out of the room at the same pace.
