Prospective- Skyler

"Hey, it's Riley. Can I come in?" she said.

"S-Sure." I said in a weak and shaky voice that sounded nothing like my own voice.

As she walked in I saw her pull out a tablet. She then proceed to sit next to me, I willingly allowed her to sit on my bed. I whipped the tears out of my eyes and said "Today I realized that my father can make me cry, and he told me that he knows who your mother is and who William's father is."

"I know who William's parents are, they are Leo Fitz and Jemma Simmons." Riley said.

I just shook my head and said "Jemma is William's mother, but Leo Fitz is not his father. His father is..." I paused, unsure of whether or not to tell who Will's father is, I then proceed to tell her the truth of her and Will's parents. "His father is Oyzis the Greek God of Pain. Your mother is Aphrodite the Greek Goddess of Love." I finished.

Riley looked at me like I was insane for saying that there parents are gods. I then proceed to take the tablet out of her hands and show her my conversation with my father today. After the video feed finished Riley looked at me then just broke down. She probably cried for almost an hour before we heard a knock on the bunk door for dinner.

"Riley, Skyler it's time for dinner." said a friendly voice, that was Skye's.

"Okay, Skye we'll be out in a minute." I said.

As Riley and I walked out of my bunk she asked "Is your mother a goddess? You know like mine?" I just looked at her and gave her look that said 'That's for another time, Okay?' She then shook her head yes then went to sit in her seat.

We sat in silence for about an hour before I asked "Where is our first guess on William's location? Do you have any ideas?"

Skye looked at me then said "Agent May and I have a few sketchy ideas, of where Agent Will might be."

"May I hear some of these sketchy ideas?" I asked.

"Well we are guessing that Agent Will was taken to one of SHIELD's old bases." Agent May said.

I shook my head up and down then asked "How many bases are we talking here, one maybe two?"

"Try about five." Riley said gnawing on a roll.

"Great, how long will that take us to locate all of the bases and search them without being detected?" I asked.

"No clue, I wish Will was here he could help." Riley said.

"Then we wouldn't be here if he was here looking for him." I said, just to make everybody laugh, well everyone but Agent May.

After dinner I was in my pajamas laying in bed, I had my laptop on my lap and I was reading over the map of all of the known Hydra bases, when I heard a knock on the door. Skye walked in and smiled, she then came over and sat on the end of the bed close enough to hold my hand. When I looked into her eyes I saw the concern in them. I then asked "Skye, do you think that we'll find Will?" tears started to build in my eyes.She looked at me then said "Skyler, do you remember when SHIELD found you? Do you remember the person that we sent in to talk to you so you wouldn't feel so scared and alone?" I nodded "What did they say?" she asked. "Will said that we would always find each other." I said with a tear tracing its way down my check...
