8. Settling

Wanda had missed a lot while she freed the prisoners.

It seemed as though she was the only one to free the prisoners like they said was the priority, because every other agent she found had been fighting the inhumans.

Of course she helped, she wasn't going to leave barely armed agents to fight superpowered people on their own, but still, it would've been nice if they'd helped her.

When she found Coulson, she also found Fitz, Mack, and a dead Gordon. Also Coulson had lost an arm.

"What the hell happened?" Wanda asked, running to Coulson.

It seemed as though he just lost it, because he was screaming in pain and Mack was holding a bloody axe. However, Wanda also noticed the part of Coulson's arm that had been cut off, was completely encased in stone and was holding onto a blue Terrigen crystal.

"Help him first, we'll explain later!" Fitz said, panicked.

Wanda couldn't exactly regrow arms or clean up something this messy, so her first thought was to stop the blood from pouring out.

She ripped her skirt, pulling off a piece and she quickly wrapped it around Coulson's stub of an arm. The cloth soon became blood soaked, but it seemed to be holding for now.

Mack, thankfully, pulled off his overshirt and handed it to Wanda. Using that, Wanda wrapped over the wound two more times and it was going to hold.

"Coulson, I'm putting magic in your head, it'll make the loss of your lower arm and hand hurt less." Wanda spoke calmly.

She pressed her fingers against his temples, and allowed a jolt of red magic to burst out of her fingertips.

The magic rushed into his head, and Coulson fell unconscious.

"Now, explain." Wanda demanded, turning back to Fitz and Mack.

"What did you just do?" Mack asked.

"A hex. He'll feel better when he wakes up, and he won't feel anything while he's asleep. Therefore I wasn't lying." Wanda replied. "What happened?"

"Sooo, uhm..." Fitz then explained.

According to him, he had put up the Disrupters around the room and sure enough, it kept Gordon contained. Then, during the fight, he teleported behind Fitz, but when he did so, he actually teleported into a spot where Fitz's weapon was, so Gordon basically killed himself.

However, when he fell over, being dead and all, the Terrigen Crystal in his hand flew out. Coulson went to catch it so it wouldn't break and release the toxic mist and kill them all. He succeeded in catching the Crystal, but then he started becoming encased in rock from where the crystal touched him.

Then Mack chopped off his hand and the rest of his lower arm, a little bit lower than his elbow.

So he saved Coulson's life.

Then Wanda walked in, and that's the story from there.

Then May and Lincoln showed up in the room, both asking for explanations. Well, May asked for an explanation. Lincoln was looking for Skye.

So Wanda awoke Coulson again and the group of six hurried down the hall and up to the surface of the ship to find Skye.

And they did, Cal was holding her carefully while Jaiying was dead in front of them.

Fun times.

Apparently Cal had found them killing each other, Jaiying was trying to suck the life force out of Daisy and Daisy was quaking Jaiying. At least that's how Cal put it.
