(Please read with their real voices!)

"Daisy!" I screamed, but she walked away from the lab. I followed her. "Daisy, please"

She stopped and looked at me: "You can't just expect that..." and she looked up to the ceiling and continued. "You didn't think about the consequences!"

"Honestly, right now I don't care!" I told her.

"You were the one who said we had a purpose! You don't see what can happen with a vaccine, please just... think" and she started walking again.

"Where are you going? Daisy" she didn't listen to me and I watched her go. I closed my eyes and put my hand on my face. Then Simmons arrived, she didn't hear the fight.

"Hey, about what we were talking about, I analysed the blood sample and found a particular substance, which you may know, but what I wanted to tell you was that I finally developed the anti-serum which should..." she said and I stopped her.

"I don't know" I said looking at her. "Maybe this isn't what has to be done. We need to think about another solution... not a vaccine"

"First of all, it's not a vaccine, it's an anti-serum, and second you were the one who suggested this! Well you suggested the vaccine not the anti-serum but anyway"

"No, I wasn't. You and Fitz made the discover"

"What? ...No!"

"Are you kidding me? It's not fun at all"

"I can say the same thing!" she said. In that moment Fitz arrived, with tears in the eyes.

"What's happening?" he said.

"Hey are you ok?" Jemma asked.

"What's happening?" he repeated.

"He saying that the idea of the... vaccine... was ours!"

"Wait... what the bloody... no! We were against that. You told us to create a vaccine, an anti-serum for inhumans and you also told us we should have used it on Yo-Yo without making any test before" said Fitz.

"No, no, no no no" I said shocked.

"Yes!" they both said together.

"And I'm here for that, actually. I used it... on Elena, as you said" Fitz said worried. Jemma became afraid too, I could see that from her face. We were both staring at him. He continued: "Well... she's not great. Someone needs to do something or... she will die, sir". Tears started to flow down Jemma's face. I was confused.
"What did you just say?" I asked.
They both looked at me without saying anything. "We tried to create the best anti-serum that we could but I guess we didn't" Jemma then said sadly.
"No, I mean, besides that... why did you call me sir?" I asked puzzled and then pointed my finger at Fitz.
He was confused: "What? You, you are the director, how should we call you?"
I laughed: "Ok stop, it's not funny!". They stared at me puzzled. "What?" I said, "Coulson's the director, how could you think of that, is this a test?" I continued.
"Oh bloody hell..." said Fitz and right after that Jemma said:"Don't bring this up again Lincoln, you don't need to remind us of what happened on that mission. Coulson's dead and you need to overcome this fact!"
I didn't know what to say, it was probably a test, to see how I would react. So I just walked away in the lab and made my way to Coulson, who was in his office. But when I opened the back door of the lab I hold my breath. I couldn't believe my eyes: Elena was on the floor and she was looking like death warmed up. I got a panic attack. I went near her and tried to help her, but all she said was "What did you do to us? Why would you? Coulson trusted you, you are inhuman too" and after that she closed her eyes and stopped breathing. I felt like I needed to vomit, like that was all a nightmare. I ran to Daisy's room and started to cry. As I opened her door without knocking before I saw her crying on a chair in the corner.

"I need help" I said.

"No. You don't" she said sobbing. She stood up and come closer to me, staring at me with tears in her eyes. "You need to wake up. You need to wake up!" she repeated.

"Wake up! Lincoln!" said Daisy.

I slightly opened my eyes and realised it was a nightmare. I was still shocked, though.

"Could you give me one second that thing you have on your finger?" I asked. She gave it to me. 180 heartbeats for minute.

"That's... pretty high, right?" she said.

"I need to throw up" I told her and then when to the bathroom without saying anything else.

As I returned in the room she said: "By the way, hi!" and she smiled.

"Sorry" I said and then came next to her and hugged her with tears in my eyes. "Are you ok?" she asked me. I didn't answer, just hugged her more.

After a minute I said: "So, what did they do to you? And, for how long have I been sleeping?" We both laughed.

"They told me that I had an aneurysm, but it was pretty weird. So, I got surgery... they removed that thing from my brain, but apparently aneurysms don't make people comatose, so I guess there's more" she puffed.

"Daisy, there's a big problem. I studied inhuman's biology and anatomy and I know for sure that out body doesn't work as a human body. And I don't know what to do".
