Prodigy (A S.H.I.E.L.D. fanfic)

First Day Of School

Everyone turned their heads to look at me.

"You've got to be kidding me."

Coulson just told me that I'd be going on my first undercover mission, as a high school student.

I guess after they saw me on the team, Hydra was so inspired that they got other teenagers to be in their satanic army.

My mission was to identify the Hydra boy, and get him in the hands of S.H.I.E.L.D. so they could lock him up for good.

Turns out he's really dangerous and has been to jail before but Hydra broke him out. *cough* *cough* Ward *cough*

"Daisy and Bobbi will be at the school too, you'll be fine."

I still had a slight look of worry on my face. Unless you count the training facility, I've never even been to real school since I was 7 years old. After first grade I was pulled out and homeschooled for the rest of my life.

"You have to be in character the entire time. We can't risk anything. You'll even have Yo-yo and Mack posing as your parents."

I took a deep breath (as if that was going to calm me down) and realized that I didn't have a choice.

There was then a slightly awkward silence but thankfully Daisy said something.

"Is this the part where we walk away or..."

Everyone muttered in agreement and left Coulson's office.

I was the last one left but before I could leave Coulson called my name.

TW: EATING DISORDERS

I reluctantly turned around.

"I noticed you haven't been eating as much as you used to Agent Ray. You ok?"

As soon as I heard that I swear I felt my heart drop to the pit of my stomach.

"Oh yeah I just think the new meds might have made me lose my appetite." I lied. Not giving hints to what I was really feeling.

"Ok. Just wanted to make sure you were alright." He smiled.

I turned around and left his office letting out a breath I was holding.

I hate lying to Coulson. I know he cares about me, a lot.

I just didn't think anyone would notice.

TW END
————
With a gray backpack on my back, my frizzy hair in a ponytail, and the classic white converse on, I was ready for my first day of high school.

Ew.

Mack was driving the only car S.H.I.E.L.D. owned that didn't have their logo all over it, into the school drop off with Yo-yo in the passengers seat.

"Well my dear parents, I must venture off into the fiery pits of hell now." I said sarcastically.

"Y/n." Mack said my name and gave me a look. I was about to say something but then Yo-yo gave me a look and I knew I probably shouldn't.

"Now I know why May hates undercover so much" I muttered under my breath.

I sighed and stepped out of the car, leaning down at the open door.

"Bye mom, bye dad!" I said in a much higher voice than my own before closing the car door shut. It was almost sarcastic.

Again, ew.

I looked up at the big high school and noticed all the classic high school cliques. You would have thought high school would have matured since the Mean Girls era but I guess not. At least for this school.
