~Winter's pov~

"Well, that was a hell of a thing" Hunter commented.

"I'm so glad you guys made it" Coulson said to Yoyo, Mack and Jemma.

"Why are we still in the Lighthouse?" I asked.

"Maybe Flint's Monolith didn't work" Mack said.

"So we find them, try again" May answered.

"No, it worked" Fitz spoke up "It takes you through time, but to the same place, I've been here before with Enoch...we made it"

"We're home?" Simmons asked.

"Yeah" Fitz answered "I'm gonna try and find some light" and he walked over to a power box and the lights turned on.

"It's hard to believe we're back" May said.

"Find me a double cheeseburger, I'll believe it" Mack responded, a projector turned on showing the S.H.I.E.L.D. logo.

"Welcome to the Lighthouse, the world's last bastion against the encroaching darkness, if you're here, you understand the gravity of the situation. The world as we know it has come to an end. My name is General Rick Stoner"

"Rick Stoner?, I've heard of him" Coulson replied.

"As you know, certain world events, should they occur, trigger, what we here in S.H.I.E.L.D., call Project Reclamation, this protocol was designed as a black-ops-action known to highest-ranking S.H.I.E.L.D. operatives. Once initiated, Project Reclamation is conducted through secure communications known as electronic mail. Our Agents were instructed to gather you, the selected elite, from a host of nations..."

"Must have never been initiated. The 1972 Hydrogen Wave Crisis was averted" Coulson explained.

"And, what, people just forgot about this place?" Hunter asked.

"There's nothing in Fury's toolbox about it. Mack, those injuries need to be treated" Coulson told him.

"I'm fine" He answered.

"I'll decide that" Simmons answered.

"So will I. well, I'll be there while she decides" Yoyo added.

"Let's find a medical station"

"Maybe have Simmons look at you, took, Coulson" Yoyo said. "That's a bad cut"

"We can worry about it later"

"Actually, I wouldn't mind checking everyone out. We did just experience an unexplored phenomenon" Simmons answered.

"Worry about it later. You look after Mack. I'll stay here with Daisy when she wakes up, she'll have a questions" Coulson said.

"When she wakes up, she's gonna want to kill you" May responded.

...

"Ok, not really a dream come true scenario" Hunter said, as we walked into a storage room "There's stuff here we can use...with some adjustment"

"Now, don't stand there gawking, please follow me to the other room" Ricker Stoner said "to deposit your valuables in the provided lock boxes" I walked deeper into the room and saw three monoliths in glass cases.

"What is it?" Hunter asked. "Oh. that's quite unsettling"

"Where did they come from?" I questioned.

"Unknown" A voice said from outside the room, I pushed Hunter behind me and put my hands up ready to fight him "Ah. Perhaps I should not have startled you. Hello, I'm Noah. I'm a sentient Chronicom from a planet which revolves around a star in the constellation-"
