Hidden

Chapter 3: Help

"What?!"

"Keep your voice down, Percy!" Fitz whisper-screamed at me, "Once we found out about your death, we left. Jemma and I... we realized how corrupt the gods were getting."

"So you left."

Jemma showed her necklace, though now it was a bracelet, "I'm a daughter of Demeter... and Fitz is a son of Hephaestus."

Fitzsimmons and I talked for a while after that, technically they were the only ones I could trust on that plane. They were demigods, they defected from the Gods. We knew each other's issues.

(A/N: So if you have read my Paladins Past book then you know about this, but I don't want to make this book 15 chapters before we even get to the actual action, though I have to do this to set up Percy's relationship with some characters. TL;DR I'm doing a lot of time skips to get this story moving along!!!)

*SEASON 2 OF AOS, Skye is at the isolation cabin*

-Skye POV-

I am so bored.

My life is crazy and I'm still bored.

First, I was exposed to alien chemicals, then those same chemicals gave me powers. Now I can't control those powers, so I have to be isolated in some 'Avenger level' cabin, alone. With nothing to do.

That was until someone knocked on my door.

I totally should not have watched paranormal activity with Fitz because I was now scared an alien would be at my door. I grabbed the fire-poker from the holder next to the fire-place and advanced to the door. When I opened the door, it was just Whirlpool (which I totally want to know her name, though her SHIELD file is like the Fort Knox of CS and that is coming from me).

"Whoa! Don't stab me... I brought food!"

I dropped the poker onto the table by the door, moving to ler Whirlpool in. She sat a bag of snacks and sat on the couch, opening a beer as she did so.

"So... want to tell me what this... emergency snack trip is about?"

"I just wanted to come and see you, I've been in quarantine like this before. I didn't want you to go stir crazy."

I grabbed the other Beer on the table, content with her answer. Though to my surprise she continued.

"And I help you control your powers."

I looked at her with a confused look. She couldn't help me, she doesn't know what this is like. It's like a thousand bees are trapped inside of me all the time. Whirlpool does not know what this is like. "You can't help me. You don't know what it's like."

"Actually... I know exactly what you're going through... I have powers too. I can help you control."
