I opened my eyes to only see more darkness. I was curled up against what felt like a wall. But I was definitely in a vehicle, I could feel the ground shake.

"Hello?" I heard a voice said from the other side of the room. "What's going on?"

"No one knows" A low voice responded.

"How many people are in here?" I heard someone with a weird accent ask. "Everyone say your name. I'll keep count"

"Mark"

"Christopher"

"Skye"

"Alice"

"Kevin"

"Helena"

"Jamie"

"Pete"

"Collin"

"Luke"

"That's 10" He said "And there could still be people unconscious" The vehicle made a turn pressing me into the wall next to me.

"Did you all get the whole infected thing?" A male voice asked.

"I did" The girl next to me answered.

"Me too" Jamie said.

Suddenly the vehicle stopped. The door opened and the light blinded me. Apparently I was sitting the closest to the door and immediately got pulled out. I tripped over my own feet and fell to the ground. All around me people started laughing.

After about 10 seconds I could finally see again. I was outside, on some sort of flight deck. As far as I could see was water.

We're on a boat. I've never been on a boat.

I felt someone pull me up and saw that it was Loki.

Loki's here? But that doesn't make sense...

Everyone was out of the plane that brought us here and now I finally started recognizing people. Just a lot of faces I've seen around S.H.I.E.L.D. for the last couple of months at least. In front of me stood five guys, all wearing military uniforms.

"Put them in the cell" The largest one said. Two guys stepped forward and pointed guns at us. We were guided inside, and it turns out that this is not just a random boat. It's a big fucking boat! We made countless of turns before we were all guided through double doors. The doors closed behind us.

The room was relatively big. Relatively because we were still standing a bit to close to each other for my liking. Most people just sat down and stared at their own hands. I also sat down, a few seconds later Loki sat down next to me.

Well this is uncomfortable.

"Did Allison wake up?" I asked him quietly. He nodded and his eyes shot around the room. Eyeing everyone up and down. I just stared at my own hands until I noticed a girl standing up and walking towards us.

"Are you Loki?" She asked in a brave voice. Loki nodded. She immediately made eye contact with multiple people around the room who also stood up.

"We need to tie him up" A tall guy with black hair said. "He's a danger to all of us"

"I think you're overreacting" I stated. His eyes immediately pierced through me.

"He killed a thousand people" The soldier shot back and looked at me like I was some sort of psychopath.

"He's not gonna do shit with me in the room" I said. I felt everyone's eyes on me which made me very nervous. The tall guy mumbled something and sat down again. The tension faded away and soon I was staring at my own hands again.

"We need to find a way to get out of here" One of the guys stated. "Like a plan"

"Well what do you propose?" One muscly guy said.

"I don't know" He said after a small silence "I don't know our strengths"

"You can always roughly cut S.H.I.E.L.D. in half" I said "The scientists and the fighters. How about all the scientists go to the right side of the room and all the fighters to the left side"

The room became to move. I just kept sitting where I was at before since I wasn't smart enough to be a scientist, so I think that makes me into a fighter. Loki did the same. At the ending of the moving four people remained on the right side. two girls and two guys. They immediately started discussing something.

More people started talking to each other also on the left side of the room. A random guy started talking to me.

"Hey" He said with a poker face. "I'm Luke. You?"

"Helena" I said and shook his hand. He was wearing a black tight shirt and jeans. His hair was black and short. Basically a typical S.H.I.E.L.D. appearance.

"Why are you so sure he's not gonna do something?" He asked and eyed Loki suspiciously.

"Well, he's my father and wants to make a good impression on me" I shrugged. His eyes widened on the word father.

Right, No one knew that. Smooth Helena, Very smooth.

He just sort of slowly backed after that. I rolled my eyes and slumped a bit down the wall.

So Loki confirmed that Allison is fine. Sadly hitting your head and getting shot is something completely different. I really hope I haven't witnessed Clint's murder. I could not be able to live with myself. He has to be fine. I mean come one, He's a master assassin. I can't just die like that.

Someone nudged my arm and got me out of my guilty daze.

"We have a plan" One of the scientists said.
