Daisy's POV

I woke up feeling a pain in my stomach. It wasn't a sharp pain, more of an uncomfortable stretching pain. 

I sighed and put a hand on my once flat stomach and felt a small bump. I jolted out of bed and ran to the bathroom in my room. 

I flipped the light switch in the bathroom and lifted up my oversized t-shirt. 

I gasped at the sight in front of me. My stomach was no longer flat anymore like it was last night. It was barely noticeable, but there was a tiny bump there. 

I was shocked and confused at the same time. I calculated myself to be 4 months pregnant.  

I felt nauseous, and a burning sensation in my throat. I turned towards the toilet and released the contents of last nights dinner in the toilet. Or what I thought were the contents of last night's dinner.

I cringed at the pain starting to erupt in my stomach, closing my eyes. 

Opening my eyes, I looked down at the contents I puked. I was surprised when I saw that the water in the toilet, now mixed with a red substance. Blood. 

I started feeling that same uncomfortable stretching pain again. Only this time, it was more intense and I felt like my insides were burning and my head felt like it was running in circles at the speed of lightning over and over again.

I stood up clumsily using the counter as support and looked myself in the mirror again. The sight in front of me shook me to the core. 

My stomach was bloated. It was bigger than what it was just minutes ago and definitely noticeable. 

And my skin a sickly, pale color.

I felt myself swaying and losing balance. My legs felt like jello, my stomach no longer feeling like it was stretching beyond it's limits but still burning and my head spinning and pounding. I felt weak. 

My hand unconsciously and instinctively going to my now little baby bump. 

I fell unconscious.

Third person's POV

Daisy woke up to find herself in a hospital gown, hooked up to wires.

"There she is!" Bobbi says from next to Daisy's bed. Crutch in hand.

"What happened?" Daisy asks groggily, wincing when she moved her head too fast. 

"Dunno. Coulson found you unconscious on the bathroom floor when you didn't show up to the meeting, blood in the toilet and coming from your mouth. Oh and uh-" Bobbi motions to Daisy's abdomen "-that..." 

Daisy looks down to see her bloated stomach, remembering what happened this morning. Daisy groans and unintentionally rubs her now baby bump.

"I'll go let Coulson know you're awake." Bobbi informs 

Daisy sighs, watching as Bobbi uses her one crutch waddling out of the room, taking a file along with her. 

~~~~~~~~~~

Bobbi knocks on Coulson's office door earning a "come in."

"Sir?" Bobbi asked as she walks in.

"Bobbi, is Daisy awake?" Coulson asks, worry evident in his voice.

"Yes, but sir, we need to talk about her condition." Bobbi says

"Is she okay?" Coulson asked, worry taking over.

"What's going on?" Mack asks as he walks in.

"I was just about tell Director Coulson about Daisy's current condition." Bobbi says looking at Mack.

"What's wrong with Tremers? Is she okay?" Mack asked worried as well.

Bobbi sighs deeply "There's no easy way to say this so I'm just going to say it. Last week, when Daisy first told me about her pregnancy, she told me she about three weeks along which means she should be four weeks. And while she was unconscious, I did an ultrasound." Bobbi hands Coulson the file she was holding. "The ultrasound shows that she's a little over sixteen weeks." Bobbi concludes.

"She jumped twelve weeks of pregnancy?" Mack asked in disbelief

"How is that possible?" Coulson asks in shocked

"I don't know, and I'm no Simmons but, I'm pretty sure that at the rate the fetus is growing... whatever it's doing to her, it's killing her." Bobbi said honestly with sadness in her voice.

"How do we stop it?" Mack asks walking closer to the two

"I'm not sure we can." Bobbi says honestly "We'd need Simmons, but she's not an option. Cal is the only one that I know of that studied inhumans to such high levels but he's not an option anymore either."

"Lincoln..." Coulson says in realization "He's a doctor with inhuman abilities and the father. Hopefully, Lincoln knows a way to stop this." 

"Yeah, but how do we find him?" Bobbi asks

"I ordered Mack to put a tracker in him at the hospital." Coulson says

"Yeah." Mack says

"Shouldn't we check on Daisy first?" Bobbi asks

"I agree." Mack and Coulson agreed.

~~~~~~~~~~

Daisy was still laying on the hospital bed in the hospital gown with a thin blanket covering her legs. 

She had a hand on her bloated belly rubbing it in small circles.

Daisy stopped rubbing when she felt a small bump on part of her stomach and pressure in her uterus, and gasped. She couldn't stop the small smile forming on her face and let out and airy laugh. 

"Wow." She whispered as she felt another kick where her hand was. "You're feisty today, aren't you little one?" Daisy says looking down at her stomach chuckling as her baby responds with another kick.

Daisy's attention turns to the door as Mack, Bobbi and Coulson all walk in. She gives them a warm and welcoming smile.

"Hey D.C, Mack." Daisy greeted the smile still on her face and hand still on her belly. Daisy's smile falters as she sees the three's serious face. "What's wrong?" Daisy asks now worried.

"We need to talk." Coulson says, all seriousness.
