Chapter 15: The Sacrifice

🦋Chapter 15: The Sacrifice🦋

With that, we quickly made our way to the hangar, where we gathered Jemma, Deke, and Enoch. We quickly informed them of what we knew and our theory. Enoch could nott believe this as he blurted out. "I beg your pardon?"

"Simmons, Juliana, and Fitz wanted to protect their secret, and they had you on their side. You could have had the power of suggestion programmed into you without your knowledge." Coulson pointed out. 

"We would never pro—" Jemma began.

However, I cut Jemma off immediately. "And because your memory's blocked, you wouldn't remember it, either."

At my words, Jemma fell silent, staring at us in disbelief. No doubt they were wondering how they knew about the implant, but I don't want to get into that again.

"You could both genuinely believe you're innocent, but I don't think you actually are." Coulson mentioned.

"Enoch wouldn't do that. It...It doesn't make any sense." Deke intervened.

"Everyone on this plane is my friend. I would never harm any of you." Enoch assured us.

"I understand and appreciate that, but you wouldn't do it, not willingly." I pointed out.

"But Juliana, Simmons, and Fitz are protecting something big...maybe fate-of-all-humanity big. It's possible you were programmed with the idea that nothing, not even your friendship with us, should get in the way of protecting humanity." Coulson chimed in.

"How do we know for sure?" Jemma inquired.

"Like with all theories, we test it." I announced.

From behind Daisy's back, we saw her take out the scanner. I saw Jemma stare at Daisy in shock and fear before turning to face Enoch.

"Now, Enoch, if I'm wrong, you won't have any problem with this." Coulson stated.

As Daisy approached Jemma, Enoch pushed Jemma out of the way before punching Coulson and then me in the jaw. I felt immense pain as I staggered back. I was about to fall, when Levi caught me, keeping me upright. I cracked a smile.

"Thanks, Levi." I said.

Well, Coulson is definitely right. Enoch then grabbed Daisy by the throat before lifting her up in the air. Deke was completely mortified.

"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!" Deke exclaimed.

Deke was about to intervene, when Coulson raised a hand out towards Deke. "Wait."

"Enoch, stop!" Jemma exclaimed, rushing towards him.

"I... cannot...stop." Enoch announced, keeping his gaze on Daisy.

Daisy began to have a hard time breathing as she croaked out. "Enoch."

"Enoch, I don't want this! Explain!" Jemma exclaimed.

"You programmed me to protect the implant at all costs, even if I had to kill." Enoch elaborated. He then turned to face Jemma. "Even if I had to kill you."

A shiver up my spine at his words. This is awful...I stared in utter shock and horror. Daisy then used her quaking abilities, flinging Enoch back against the wall of the hangar door. He collapsed onto the ground with a loud thud. Once Enoch got up, he looked at us with a grim look.

"Oh, dear." He said.

All of the sudden, the entire ship shook, signaling another time loop would pass and another would start.

~Time Loop #101~

"Maybe we don't have to stop him." Coulson suggested.

Daisy, Coulson, and I were back in the room where Coulson's charging pod was. We were now discussing our next move. Now that we knew who was the one behind the killing, we had to find a way to stop him.
