"Again Skye!" Wards voice was hard and a hint of anger could still be heard in his voice as he ordered the teams consultant to go yet another round on the sandbag.

Skye closed her hands and took the stand he had showed her to use before she started to hit the bag once more. She could feel her body getting more and more tierd of the way he was training her.

Ward had no idea of how to train a woman, sometimes it seemed as he had no idea of how to train anyone. The way he was teaching Skye to stand and hold her body went against everything she had once learned from someone else.

"One more time!" Ward said once more when Skye put down her hands. "Ward, it's long past dinner time. I didn't have time to eat before you dragged me down here and it's getting late." Skye said hoping he would let her rest.

Ward turns his head to look at the clock. "Fine, we will finish here for today." He says and Skye nods her head as she took a deep breath. She took down the sand bag and put it to where it belonged before she took her water bottle and started to head up the stairs.

As she walks past the kitchen she could see that the rest of the team was still sitting there, eating their dinner but neither of them realised she had returned from the training. Things had been quite cold between here and the team since the betrayal.

FitzSimmons was still talking to her, but it was not as much as it had been and the long talk the three of them used to have was gone. Coulson was spending more and more time in his office doing God knows what. May, well there was not much change in her behaviour from before. And Ward, well he was drilling her to train on every free second.

Skye had to admit she was happy when Coulson told her she could stay in the bus, but she was not very comfortable in the new treatment from the team.

Once Skye finally reached her bunk she closed and looked the door behind her before she sat down on the bed. She took a few deep breath once more before she bent forward and pulled out a box from under her bed. She put the box beside her and open it up to revile her secret stack of food.

It was an old habit from when she was young to always make sure she had food hidden in her room if there would come a day when the foster family would not feed her and when times like this came around she was happy she had picked up on this habit, even if some people might think it is an odd on.

Once she had gotten some food in her system and hidden the box once more she lied down on the bed and closed her eyes for a second. That was all it took, a second, before she was sleeping.

Skye open up her eyes and started to look around herself a little. Her eyes landed on the clock and she lets out a small sigh when she sees the time. "2.30am... right on time as always." She says in a low voice as she raises up from her bed.

She had woken up at 2.30am every day for quite some time now, how long it had really been is lost in time. But what to do this early, or maybe late at night, then to train.

Skye takes her water bottle and swiftly opens up her bunks door and walks out. The bus was always quiet at this time of day if they were not in the middle of a very hard mission that is.

She walks down the stairs to the cargo hold and puts down her bottle on the last step and walks in to the middle of the room. She closes her eyes and takes a few deep breath before she opens up her eyes again and starts moving around, doing the different steps and movements correctly.

A light rouge color was soon glowing around Skye as a snow leopard spirit was standing in front of her. As Skye moved the snow lepard moved around her in the cargo hold, making sure it did not get near Lola.

Time passed and Skye soon let go of the spirit and the snow lepard was gone in a blink of an eye. Skye takes her bottle and looks at the clock. 4:30 am, good time to head back to the bunk before some of the early rising people woke up on this bus.

Skye walks up the stairs but once on the second floor she could hear footsteps and she swiftly moves in the to bathroom. She stands with her hands on the door and listens at the footsteps walking pass the bathroom and down the stairs.

Skye waits a few more minutes before she opens up the door and heads to her bunk. Once in safety, Skye leans towards the door and closed her eyes. That had been a bit to close.

Skye moves to the small wardrobe to change out of her training cloth before she sits down on the bed and pulls out her computer.  A few hours of simply scrolling around before leaving the room to get coffee was a normal rutin, followed by morning training with Ward. That was something she did not look forward to.

Once Skye was sure the others were about to start moving around on the bus she puts her computer away and raises up. She opens up the door to her bunk at the same time as Fitz dose and she nods her head a little. "Good morning Fitz." She says

"Good morning Skye. I didn't see you at diner last night." Fitz says as he turns his head to look at her.

"I was to tierd to ear after Wards training." She says with a sigh and Fitz nods his head a little. "He is training you quite hard now." He said and Skye just nods her head. "You have no idea." She mumbles.

"Fitz, Skye. Good morning!" Simmons voice reached both Fitz and Skye's ears as the enters the kitchen and the looks up to see Simmons making some tea water.  "Good morning Simmons." Fitz says and sits down in one of the chairs.

"Really, how can you be so happy this early in the morning?" Skye just said and walks over to the coffeemaker and Simmons just shrugs her shoulders. "It's a nice morning?" She says with a inosent voice.

Skye just rolls her eyes and takes her cup of coffee to her mouth to take a sip of it. "Good, you are all awake. Meeting in the command center now." Coulson said as he walked past the kitchen and the "kids" on the bus looks at one another before they followed after him.

"Good, now that we are all here we can begin." Coulson said when he sees that Skye, Simmons and Fitz walks in to the room. "What's going on sir?" Ward asks as he stands beside May and Simmons and Fitz walks over to join them as Skye just leans towards the wall with her arms crossed.

"Director Fury wants us to go on a undercover mission for a little while. Mysterious creatures has been spotted in the city, creating problems. But there has been a small group that has taken care of these creatures. But these people do not belong to known organization and the creatures are not from this earth." Coulson said.

"We will need to come up with some good alibis and works for the time when we are going to be there." Coulson then said and the team looks at one another. "Where are we going sir?" Simmons asks.

"Ocean Bluff." Coulson said and a laughter could be heard from Skye and everyone turns to look at her. "Ocean Bluff? You have to be kidding with me?" Skye says and the team just looks at her with an unimpressed expression.

"Well then." Skye says and smiles big. "I already have my cover and work a phone call away." She then said pulling out her phone and calls a number and puts it on speaker. "Welcome to Jungle Karma Pizza how may I help you." A voice soon could be heard.

"Yo RJ! It's Skye!" Skye said with a big smile. Things are starting to look good again, at least for a little while.
