A Little Easier

Andrew

Andrew's POV

  I woke up to a feeling that would make anyone who had food in their stomach puke out their insides. Sadly, I didn't have the luxury of food in Hydra. I was lying on a dirt coated floor and a blue atmosphere. Where am I? I took a few steps around and all I heard was the howls of the wind.

  I'm where Simmons was. I'm project Distant Star Return.

I knew SHIELD wasn't gonna help me get back because they don't know I'm here, and the Monolith in our possession was destroyed. I walked around a bit and then the storm came.

I woke up face down in the dirt, feeling like I would be in a better mood if I waas dead. A hazy layer of dust settled around me then I heard somebody speaking. "Hey, It's my boy Drew! I can call you that, right? C'mon man' talk to me!" Who else is possibly on this stupid planet. I lazily turned my head, and to my dismay, it was Tripp.

  "I thought you were dead." I spat out. "I should be, but, that's not how it works when the Terrigen makes you shatter into a billion pieces. No, you get sent here... Maveth, and become part of what I am here... There's about 20 other SHIELD agents in here... Let's see, Gonzales, agen--" I cut him off with "Shut up, I don't care. Why am I here? What could HYDRA possibly want with me?" He laughed and said "You are here to save me, bring me back to Earth. If you can't... You serve me. But, I really want to know how Fitz got Simmons back? I always had a crush on her... You know that other guys that was here... Will?" He laughed "I shot him. While they were here they... Were a 'couple' I guess. Never liked the guy, glad somebody else is here with me." I searched myself for any weapons on me. The least I can do is kill the guy. Nothing. I guess HYDRA wiped me clean. I rose to my feet and laughed. "You have lost your mind if you think for  seconds..." I spat out the blood that pooled in my mouth "That I will ever help you" I shook my head "You have lost your mind." and I walked back down the hill.

Fitz's POV

 

Why would Jemma ever consider sucide? She's not stupid. Oh well. I need to help her through this. I held her hands tightly but relased one of them, and crumpled up the letter she wrote. SHe watched me carefully with her hazel eyes and watched me attempt to throw it into the trash, but miserably failed. She let out a small chuckle. "Well, It's in the past, Jem. All we can do is try and forget." I said with a gentle smile. "I can try, but that's stuck with me forever, Fitz." She sighed. "Well, we are very late for a meeting with Coulson, are you okay with going?" I asked, and she made a small nod, and we left the room hand and hand, on our way to the meeting.

  I heard murmurs through the door and could tell that they hadn't officially started the meeting without us. I barely cracked open the door to see what they were doing, and heard Daisy talking and showing the team something on her laptop. I listened and watched closer.

"That... Is deffinetly not rocket science!" She giggled and the rest of the team gaped at whatever was on her bright screen. "Fitz, you absolute beauty!" Hunter yelled, and the rest of the team glared at him and he swiftly apologized. Then I heard those stupid words.

  We're cursed.

  Jemma clutched onto my shoulder and I fully pushed the door open, and the crowd quickly dispersed from the screen. "What were you guys looking at?" I asked and got many different answers. "Come again?" I said and Daisy quickly replied "Hackery." and let out a small giggle. Coulson stood up and began the meeting.

  "So, I held this meeting today because I have devised a new plan to take down HYDRA. Once and for all." He said with a quizzical expression. "And I'm the bait." He huffed out. "So, we are going to converge in our old, base, classified location, and have our HYDRA double-agent give our coordinates to Ward, bringing him right to us." I don't like the direction this is going in. "The biggest risk, is putting agent Fitz on the front line along side me. With the information FitzSimmons recovered on the Monolith, they will want the brains of that op for themselves. So, The specifics will be briefed to him directly after this, along with agent Simmons." The room nodded, but I knew JEmma was scared for my safety.

  The rest of the team filed out, giving Jemma and I either looks of concern, or like Hunter, making a heart-shape with his fingers. He's such an idiot.

  "So, Fitz. You and I will be going in on Alpha 0, a prototype 3-person flyer that will take us directly to the location." Jemma furrowed her eyebrows at me right then, and I shook my head in dissaproval, I knew what she wanted to do. She gave me puppy eyes, and I sighed a 'fine' at her. "Sir, I would like agent SImmons as my +1." I said. "I knew you were gonna ask that, fine by me." he solemnly said. "Anyways, we will have big guns. Don't worry about the rest, I have it under control. I nodded along with Jemma and we left the onfrence room.

  "I can't belive they were watching that feed... Next time we will have to avoid the trajectory of the camera!" She joked. "I'm scared for this mission, Fitz." She sighed. "I am too. But I have a reason, and a purpose to come back home, in one piece. You." she kissed me on the cheek and turned off to her room. "See you in 2o!" She yelled, and I nodded. It's gonna be a long next few days.
