《MAOS ; No More Secrets》Who You Really Are

Advertisement

After getting ready to go to Portugal to pick up an Asgardian named Lady Sif, whom the rest of the original team have fought with before when I was on my mission in Washington D.C., as she has been arrested by the Faro City police for hurting civilians whom have been in her way on her search for someone called 'Kava'.

I then go to leave my bunk room when I stop at a full length mirror, and I slowly walk towards it. I then focus on as much anger as possible as I close my eyes, and when I open them again I look at my hands to see no change. I then take a deep breath before releasing all of the negativity, and I breath in and out deeply as I feel a cold power erupt from my core, and I open my eyes and look at the mirror to see I have turned invisible. I then smile slightly before moving my hand to touch my face when I suddenly become un-invisible and the power from my core erupts from my core, through a tingling feeling in my hand and the mirror smashes. I then sigh a little agitated before I leave my bunk and head for The B.U.S.. I'm not like my parents.

After Coulson, May, myself, Fitz, Simmons and Skye fly to Portugal to pick up Lady Sif, Skye finds intel on twitter of Lady Sif and on other social media of her fighting a man whom matches her own strength before she is thrown off of a pier. And right now I am standing in the briefing room with Coulson, Fitz, Simmons, Skye and Lady Sif as more footage of Lady Sif fighting the same man is on the wall computer.

"We found a couple of other videos of the fight, and we've been analyzing them frame by frame, which..." Simmons trails off.

"... Which didn't get us much in the way of, um..." Fitz trails off as he tries to find the right words.

"... Of anything new?" I ask him.

"Yeah. Thanks. Um, until we get to... Here." Fitz taps on the computer table with his right index finger to show a part of the video where Lady Sif stabs the man in the stomach.

"I do very much enjoy that part." Lady Sif smiles.

"So, he... He's... He's wearing something... Something mechanical, and she nailed it." Fitz explains.

"And there's more." Simmons adds as she pauses the video and zooms in on the man's stomach wound my tapping on the computer table with her right index finger, and it looks like blue blood is oozing from his stomach wound.

"What is that? Blood?" I ask them.

"Hope so. It could give us a lead." Simmons states.

"Well, there's no way to know from the video." Fitz adds.

"Once we land, Fitz, you go with Hunter and Mack, handle forensics. Lyra and Skye, I need you both and Bobbi to talk to witnesses in the area, see if we can track down where this guy went." Coulson gives us our orders.

"Sir, the science division has loaded the team with heavier suppression artillery. After Raina's vanishing act, we advise that when you find this... Man, you contain him first, ask questions later. New I.C.E.R.'s are still in development." Simmons explains to Coulson.

"Very good. Keep me posted." Coulson tells Simmons.

"New I.C.E.R.'s?" Fitz asks Simmons confused.

"Oh. The mechanical design is still top-notch, but we're looking into a more concentrated dendrotoxin formula." Simmons explains.

"And wouldn't that be dangerous?" I ask her confused.

"But effective. Given these elevated threats, we can't risk it not being." Simmons states before she leaves, and Skye glances at me worried.

After arriving at Faro City Hospital, I walk inside with Skye and Morse before I walk over to a near janitor whom is moping the floor as I hold an electronic tablet in my right hand.

"Poderia, por favor, encontrar alguém que fale inglês? Meu português é horrível [Would you please find someone who speaks English? My Portuguese is awful]." I ask the janitor, and he nods politely "Muito obrigado [Thank you so much]." I thank him before he walks to find someone who speaks English, and I walk back over to Morse and Skye.

"You speak Portuguese?" Skye asks me confused.

"I'm no expert. It's a pretty language." I smile at her.

"It's hard to gauge if someone's lying." Morse adds.

"Are you an expert at that?" Skye asks Morse.

"At lying or telling if someone's lying?" Morse asks Skye.

"I have a feeling you're probably an expert at both." Skye admits as a woman walks over to the reception.

"Can I help you?" The woman asks us in English but with a Portuguese accent, and I smile as we all walk over to her.

"Hi, yes, we're looking for anyone who may have been injured in the incident at the pier or may have seen this man." I explain to her as I turn the electronic tablet on showing the man from the pier, and I turn the electronic table towards so she can see.

"Hmm. No, he does not look familiar to me. As far as the injuries, I can ask around. The nurse who was working earlier took ill. So we are short-staffed. It may take a while." The woman explains to us.

"Okay. Well, we'll be here." I smile at her.

"Continuas a chamar-me isso, é o meu nome? [You keep calling me that, is it my name?]" One of the two women is the back of the reception asks in Portuguese.

"Is that woman all right? What happened to her?" I ask the woman confused.

"Por que não me lembro do meu nome? [Why can't I remember my own name?]" The woman in the back of the reception asks confused.

After the woman at the reception explained to us that the woman who cant remember who she, whom also was working at the reception earlier began to wander the hospital not knowing who she it. We put together that the man from the pier may be here as he may have done to Lady Sif what he had done to this woman, so right now I am calling Coulson over my com.

"Lyra, anything?" Coulson asks over my com.

"Sir, we have evidence he's here at the hospital. It's a big place, though. He might be hiding anywhere." I explain to him.

"Well, we know he needs nitrogen, and they use it in hospitals to power surgical equipment. Let's start there." Coulson tells me.

"Yes, sir." I tell him.

After the woman at reception directed us where they keep their nitrogen in the hospital, I had her evacuate the hospital as myself, Skye and Morse head to where they keep the nitrogen. I then slowly open the door to the room, and we all walk into see a blue man with his back to us, and he turns to us as he attaches something to the machine on his chest, and he looks like the man from the pier besides from the fact that his skin is blue, but his skin slowly turns back to human.

"You do not want to fight me." The man says to us as I place my left hand on my Night-night gun in my left holster.

"We just have some questions for you." I say to him as Morse takes a step towards him "Morse, stand down." I tell her, but she doesn't as she takes another step towards him and takes out her Staves.

The man then goes to left hook her, but Morse avoids the attack before she goes to hit the man with her right Stave, but he blocks it with his right lower arm. Morse then goes to hit him with both of her Staves in the stomach before right kicking him in the chest sending him flying against a wall in the room. Morse then goes to hit him with her right Stave, but he blocks the attack with his left upper arm before right hooking her across the face making her loose her balance before he grabs her by the back of her jacket with both hands and throws her across a table and onto the floor, knocking her unconscious. Skye then takes out her gun and aims it at the man.

"Forgetting what just happen, S.H.I.E.L.D. does not mean you any harm, we just want to talk." I explain to him. Suddenly, the room begins to shake and Skye's gun begins to fall apart "Skye, just breath." I tell her as the gun shatters into pieces in her hands before a near shelf begins to fall towards it, and I grab it with both hands as I try to push it back up "Skye, you need to breath!" I shout for her, but the man suddenly runs over to us, pushes the shelf down on top of me making me loose my balance and fall before he gets away, and the room stops shaking.

After arriving back at The B.U.S. and meeting up with Coulson, May, Fitz, Simmons, Hunter, Mack and Lady Sif, Simmons is tending to Morse as Skye, myself and Lady Sif are in the lounge waiting on news about Morse to know if she's going to be alright.

"Simmons is tending to Bobbi. She's gonna be okay." Coulson says as he walks into the lounge.

"Sir, if she cant follow orders on a simple retrieve mission-" I try to say to Coulson but he cuts me off.

"-I'll talk to her." Coulson assures me, and I nod understanding.

"The guy was blue, like 'he just tested some Willy Wonka gum' blue, and he needed nitrogen for whatever device turned his skin pink." Skye explains.

"Do you think he's a Kree?" I ask them as I refer to the alien species I read on the S.H.I.E.L.D. files.

"You told me last year the Kree had not visited our realm." Coulson says to Lady Sif.

"If a Kree came to your world unannounced now, I would assume he's up to no good." Lady Sif explains.

"He attacked Lyra, Bobbi and Skye, so that's a yes." Coulson states.

"Yeah. The guy throws a mean punch. Let's assume you were here to stop him. We still don't know his objective." I say to Lady Sif.

"No, but knowing he is Kree helps. Kava, for example. I thought it was a name. 'Tis a Kree word." Lady Sif explains.

"You also learn other species' entire languages as a child?" Coulson asks her.

"'Kava' means 'keys'." Lady Sif states.

"'Keys?'" I ask her confused.

"A device used to unlock-" Lady Sif begins to explain, but I cut her off.

"-Yeah, I know keys." I nod understanding.

"It's something. Let's look into it." Coulson tells us before Lady Sif places her left hand on my right shoulder.

"Lyra and Skye... Thank you for engaging my enemy. You are quite brave." Lady Sif says to us.

"Anytime." I show her a small smile.

After meeting Fitz in the cargo hold, Skye explains to him what happened when we were trying to bring the Kree in.

"The whole room was shaking, Fitz. The gun in my hand exploded." Skye explains.

"Oh, god." Fitz sighs.

"I-I thought that I could handle it. But I can't. It's too much." Skye admits to us.

"You just to take your time and breath, don't let it control you." I say to Skye, and both she and Fitz looks at me confused "I may be starting to control it... Slightly. I cracked a mirror this morning." I explain to them with a sigh "I think we have to tell Coulson what's happening." I admit to them.

"Hang on. Wait. Just wait until I've or... Analyzed-" Fitz tries to say, but Skye cuts him of.

"-I can't control it when I get upset or nervous." Skye states before she looks to me "You already know how to take your time, breath, learn to be patient because you've been doing it your whole life. I haven't." She sighs at me.

"I'm running that diagnostic on your blood samples right now. Hopefully, when it's done, we'll have a solution. There's nothing you-" Fitz cuts himself off when Hunter walks into the cargo hold.

"-Sorry to interrupt... Whatever this is. Just wanted to check out the new toys from sci-tech." Hunter explains to us as he motions to the briefcases in the cargo hold "Okay." He sighs when none of us say anything, and he walks over to the brief cases.

"I'm... Gonna... Scour the web for 'Key' references. Yeah." Skye says as we all begin to walk away.

"I need coffee." I state.

"Yeah, you do that." Hunter murmurs before we all walk away in different directions.

As I make Coffee in the kitchen, Coulson sits at the kitchen counter on a laptop and May sits on the couch on an electronic tablet, both of them looking for 'Keys' in Portugal, and Lady Sif is standing beside Coulson.

"Is that rum?" Lady Sif asks me as I pour some coffee into a mug.

"No, it's coffee. You don't have coffee in Asgard?" I ask her, and she takes my coffee and smells it "Careful, it's..." I trail off as she begins to down the coffee "... Hot." I say as she finishes drinking the coffee.

"Thats delicious, I have so much energy, may I have another?" Lady Sif asks me as she holds the empty mug out to me.

"Sure." I smile at her as I begin to fill up another mug of coffee, and Skye walks into the lounge.

"I'm saying I can't find any particular keys that would be hugely important, not literal keys, not metaphorical keys, not as in 'to the city'. It doesn't mean that I-" Coulson tries to say, but May cuts him off as I hand Lady Sif another cup of coffee.

"-Wait. Look at this." May stands up and hands Coulson the electronic tablet she was holding.

"'Chaves'. A city known for its sedimentary basins. I don't-" Coulson tries to say, but May cuts him off.

"-Guess what 'Chaves' means in English." May says to him.

"'Keys'." I state.

"That's where the Kree was heading. That's where I was chasing him. That was my mission." Lady Sif states.

"But Chaves, Portugal. We've seen that name before." Coulson says to us.

"It was in Whitehall's S.S.R. file. The site of his dig back in 1945, where he first found The Obelisk. That's where we have to go." I say to them.

"Director? I'd like to sit this one out, please." Skye speaks up, and everyone looks at her confused but me, she's scared encase she looses control again, but I play along.

"You all right?" I ask her cautiously.

"Yeah, just after my run-in with blue man group, I still feel a little banged-up, and I'm just worried I'm not gonna be much help out there, so..." Skye trails off.

"Okay. Whenever you're ready." Coulson tells her.

"Is it really about being hurt, or is it about your nerves?" May asks her.

"I promise, it's just about the guy making me see cartoon birdies all around my head. That's it." Skye admits.

"Do you want me to stay here with you?" I ask her before I turn to Coulson "You could take Mac with you, and Lady Sif is stronger than all of us put together." I explain to Coulson.

"Alright, but both of you stay on Coms. Skye, have Simmons give you one more check while we're gone. Let's make sure there's nothing serious." Coulson tells us.

"O-okay." Skye nods.

"Pull up the S.S.R. file. I want to pinpoint exactly where this Kree guy's going." Coulson tells May before he, May and Lady Sif leave.

After capturing the Kree, who told us his name is Vin-tak, arriving back at The Playground, I walk with Coulson, Skye Mack and Morse as Morse explains what she could find out about Vin-tak's memory eraser, also known at the Truncheon.

"It's possible that only he can operate it. We've seen other alien materials react to biology or DNA." Morse explains.

"Don't remind me." Mack state.

"Or us." I refer to Skye and myself.

"We've all been there, done that. Fitz and Simmons will examine the case. If this guy's telling the truth, we might finally get the answers we've been searching for." Coulson explains to us.

Coulson, May, myself, Skyeand Lady Sif then stand in the lounge with Vin-tak as Lady Sif holds her sword and Coulson holds Vin-tak's Truncheon as we question him about how the Truncheon works to get Lady Sif's memories back.

"Tell us how the truncheon works, Kree." Lady Sif circles Vin-tak.
