This is a skyward vigilantes AU that I randomly can up with.
He shows up. Of course he does. There's not a single time since their first encounter that he isn't there even when she said over and over that she doesn't need his help. She has Lincoln, her actual partner, to help her. But Ward always shows up to save the day, anyway, or in other words to put her to shame.
She doesn't even know what he's thinking he's going to do. It's a burning building. He sets things on fire. It's not like he can stop the flames with his powers- apparently, he's not that powerful.
She opens her mouth to voice those thoughts, but he sees the intent on her face and says "I can't get burned, so I can get people out. What do you plan to do? Quake the flames out of the building?
Here plan was actually the same as his, but she wants to reply in kind, but before she can come up with the proper response, he turns and enters the building.
Seeing she has no other choice, Skye follows inside.
"I can clear the path." she says to his back, determined to prove that she's needed there- which is stupid since he's the one who's not needed there. "I may not be able to put out the fire, but I can still control it.
" So can I." pointedly manipulating the flames in front of him to be able to pass.
She groaned in frustration at not being able to get the better of him.
Turning, he sighed and said "Look, if we keep arguing like this, we won't get anything done. How about I clear the top floor and you clear this one?"
" Why do I have to clear this floor?" she protested "I mean, what if you get trapped up there? Can you control ruble as well?
"I can jump out of the window" he refuted "But thanks for the concern.
"With civilians? And even if you did, who's to say you won't break any bones on the way down? I can pretty much fly with my powers, I would have no trouble getting down."
"Fine." he sighed in exasperation "You get the top floor.
She smiled triumphantly,thinking she had won, before setting about clearing the top floor and in no time they had all the civilians out, in time for the firefighters to arrive and put out the fire.
It was only when she flew the scene with Lincoln that she realized that she had ended up being the one helping him taking the victory out of their previous argument.
"Your know that you did again, right?" Lincoln asked as they turned into a dark alley to avoid being seen. Always helpful her partner.
"Just, don't say another word about it." she warned.
"I just don't understand why we-"
" Don't!"
