Undercover Agent *old*

Chapter 65

Old S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters
Location: Classified

"Hit that button." Fitz ordered and Mia pressed the button he pointed at. Daisy was still overriding the mainframe to try and find a location on the not-anymore-robot.

The three of them were trying to keep the Framework running for as long as possible. Aida was trying to lock them out, but Mia knew how to get back in every time.

"Fitz, how do I get into the Hydra server on the other side of this?" Mia asked.

"That would be--"

He got cut off because Daisy her phone started ringing. She excused herself and the man went on.

"That would be almost impossible from out here." Fitz told the redhead. "It would stand within the code of the base itself, or the mainframe Daisy was trying to get into."

Mia nodded and tried again. As the brunette was now on a phonecall, the hacking of the mainframe was put on hold. But getting into the Hydra server of the Framework could slow down the decoding even more than Mia was already doing.

"Hill," Daisy came back walking in, "we need to talk to Coulson. Robbie Reyes is back."

Maria got up from her spot besides her fiancée and followed the younger agent out.

"Who is Reyes?" Mia asked as she continued typing.

"Uh... He's Ghost Rider. Got a flaming skull because of a deal made with the devil." Fitz explained.

The redhead nodded and didn't question it. A deal with the devil was the most easy thing to not question. And also pretty easy to believe, given the life she had been living.

Maria was waiting with Coulson for when Daisy would be back with Reyes. She had crossed her arms and tapped her foot. Not because she was nervous, but because she wanted the Aida situation to be over.

Not even five minutes later, Reyes showed up and walked up to them. He greeted the two older agents with a nod and toyed with the chains around his torso.

"How'd you find Aida?" Coulson asked.

"There was a... a tear." The man began. "In the dark world when she was created. It's how I escaped. The thing in me is drawn to dark matter the way your GPS tracks my car."

"So you're saying Aida's made of the same stuff as the Darkhold?" Coulson asked.

"Yeah." Reyes confirmed. "And the Rider wants to send them both back to where they came from."

"I hope that means hell." Daisy commented.

"Hell is relative." Reyes told her. "Dimensions, space, planets... It's all connected."

"Connected through what?" Maria asked.

"Mass, life, space itself. Plenty of them qualify as hell." The man explained. "The Earth is just one territory in a war that's been going on forever."

"Can you beat Aida?" Daisy asked the most important question.

Footsteps made Maria turn around to see May walk in with a head in her hands. She chuckled, but tuned back into the conversation.

"I don't know." Reyes answered. "But what I do know is the demon in me hates her in ways I've never felt."

"We all feel like that." Coulson stated.

"Why do you have that?" Daisy asked as she saw what May had in her hands.

"It was in the module with the LMDs Robbie destroyed." The older woman said. "Do we know who he is?"
