Undercover Agent (An Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D Story)

Closure

~Danielle's pov~

"All hail the conquering hero" I heard Malick say, I looked over to him and saw that Ward just walked in "That was fast. Seems I just gave the go-ahead"

"Been a while since I took a shot from that far out. Felt good" Ward answered, I turned back to what I was doing still listening to the conversation

"Yeah I bet" I muttered to myself

"Guess in all that excitement, you forgot about the part where we need Phil Coulson alive" He said to Ward, I smirked a bit

"He made it out" Ward told him

"By the skin of his teeth. What the hell were you thinking about, sending in your little bones brigade?"

"I wanted to put Coulson through his paces" Ward answered

"Ah. this is not some game you just leave to chance"

"Well, maybe not for you. I was good either way"

"Right" Malick chuckled "Cause if Coulson doesn't make it out you get that closure you've been searching for. Closure's not something that I ever put much stock in"

"What I believe in..." Malick started again, I rolled my eyes "Is moving forwards. Never looking back. These five stones were extracted from the monolith centuries ago the idea was that. They should be divided up evenly among Hydra's most powerful leaders"

'Is this all he talks about?' I asked myself

"Now you've got the full set, thanks to me" Ward spoke up

"You're missing the point" Malick told him "These stones are the key to everything that Hydra' been marching toward since it was formed and now you're jeopardizing all of that for something as petty as closure?"

"Don't worry. Everything will play out exactly like we planned" Ward told him

"How can you be so sure?" He asked him

"Cause i know Coulson better than he knows himself" Ward commented, I rolled my eyes at his comment

~Time Skip~

I watched as two soldiers dragged Fitz-Simmons into the room and pushed them on the floor, as they looked up at us "Don't blame me. This was his idea" Ward told them, as Malick walked in the room

"Get 'em up" Malick told the two soldiers, as the two soldiers pulled them up "You know. My father used to say, never send a boy to do a man's job but it honestly never occurred to me that I should try sending a young woman. Tell me, Miss Simmons, when you went through, did you see it?"

Simmons tried to headbutt him but the soldiers held her back as Malick chuckled "You didn't tell me she was so feral" looking over to Ward

"It's a new development" Ward answered

"The secrets you must have hiding in that pretty little head of yours, just waiting to be shared..." Malick started but was cut off by Fitz

"We're never gonna help you open another bloody portal"

"Nobody's asking you to. See, Hydra's been opening one portal or another for centuries" Malick started, I rolled my eyes

'Here we go again' I thought to myself

"And all it takes is a few stones and a building with just the right vibrational frequency" Malick finished

"What's all this about, then?" Fitz asked

"The other thing" He responded, I saw Simmons smile

"They don't know how to get back" Simmons said to Fitz
