"What's the word on the kid?"
"Lincoln Campbell. Skye knew him a while back. They were...close."Peggy says."Coulson seems to believe that he may be the way we find Skye?"
"Any abilities?"
"Generates electricity with his hands. Wildly charming a bit of a temper."I look down at Peggy."What am I not allowed to enjoy pretty things?"
I laugh lowly."Have you seen,Natasha today?"
"She was going to Bobbi's office last I'd seen her. That was a bit before noon. I believe she'd been training with Clint,because she didn't look very well."
I clench my jaw as we enter the conference room. Coulson looks up at me."Captain."
"Director."
I look down at the boy sitting at the conference table.
"Lincoln meet Steve Rogers. Captain,meet Lincoln Campbell. I assume Peggy debriefed you on the way here."
"Yes."
"I'm only here to find Daisy. I don't want anything to do with any of the other crap S.H.I.E.L.D has gotten itself into,I just want to find Daisy."
"Then we have similar goals."I state plainly."But signing on to finding Daisy comes with other threats."
"Coulson already told me about this Jonas guy. I've seen the footage."
"And you're still willing to sign on even if this calls for a long term ride?"
"I'll do whatever it takes to find her,Captain Rogers. Even if it's the last thing I do. I owe her."
I clench my jaw."How do we know he's any good?"
"He helped Daisy out during a rough patch in her life."
Lincoln stands."Look I'm willing to help. I know you guys are skeptical of newcomers. And after all that's been happening recently, I don't blame you. But like I said,I'm not here for the world,I'm here for Daisy. And I will take any means necessary to find her."
"We don't have a lot on her location."
"I know."He says."Maybe I could help out."
"You say Jonas like you're familiar with the name."
"I knew him for a little bit. His old man used to own a bar in Brooklyn. He and his brother used to work there. After a while he disappeared. I never knew his name,he never said it. We never talked although he would always acknowledge me. After I saw the footage of what he did to you guy's boss, his face registered."
"His old man?"
"Yeah,he never tended,but I seen him every now and then."
"What did he look like?"
"Uh,tall,dark hair."
"You don't think that was Ward do you?"I direct at Coulson.
"We can't be sure. Plus it's of no real significance if it was."
"If I can't provide you with tech or intel,I can give you my powers. Maybe give you some insight on other enhanced I've seen like him. One thing's for sure he isn't an inhuman. He's been toyed with. I've seen his ablities on others, but not all packed into one person like that. And we don't just shrug off bullets like bee stings either."
"It may not be about guns. We may need some enhancements of our own."
Coulson nods."Director Carter will get you situated in the living quarters. Rest up,you'll wish you'd taken advantage of it when the time comes for fighting."
Lincoln holds out his hand for me to shake."It was an honor,Captain."
"Honor to meet you too,Mr. Campbell."
He nods his acknowledgement on the way out.
"I don't know what we've gotten ourselves into,"Couslon begins."But I know damn well of I seen the devil ,it's Jonas."
"Welcome to hell."I say.
