Kapitel 42: 42. Simmons in danger
"Unless it is an end to this conversation I am pretty sure we don't," Coulson said while shaking his head
Raina popped her first under her chin and looked at him coquettishly. "You really know how to make a girl feel special" she complained sweetly.
"Only when I suspect she has something under her sleeves" replied Coulson
"It's in my purse actually," she said as she started to open it. "Right now Hydra is looking for a spy within their Ranks. I wonder what would happen to Agent Simmons" Raina said as she showed her mobile to Coulson which had a picture of Simmons using the flex screen, "If this were to fall into the wrong hands"
"I don't like being threatened," Coulson said while May and Skye were already ready to pounce on her.
"This isn't a threat. It's a gesture of goodwill" replied Raina, "I would like nothing but delete that photo"
"And in return. What do you want?" asked Coulson
"From you? Nothing" said Raina shaking her head, "But I need to take Skye with me"
"Excuse me? What the hell is it really about? And why also in the hell do you think I will ever let that happen?" asked Coulson
"To prevent every Hydra employee to receive an automated email with that photo" replied Raina while pointing towards the photo as she clicked on it starting the timer of 2 minutes. "You have 2 minutes after which there is nothing I can do."
"Where are you planning to take Skye?" asked Coulson
"Somewhere she has always wanted to go. To meet her dad" replied Raina with a smile as she picked up her glass of wine while taking a sip.
Skye turned her head to look at May in shock, "She is lying"
"On the trip here, Ward told me that Raina knew about my father. This could not be a coincidence." Skye said
"Yes but that does not mean that you should follow her Skye, we don't know if she isn't going to use you to get to your dad. Who knows what their relationship is like?" came Grant's voice from the comms calming Skye down a little.
"So you are what? Working for Skye's father now?" asked Coulson
"I am just trying to make the best out of a difficult situation" replied Raina dropping her flirty attitude and becoming serious at once
"By threatening the life of one of my agents?" questioned Coulson
"By allowing one to find out who she really is? That's what Skye has been searching for her whole life. Ask her yourself, Director Coulson? She is here, isn't she? Listening." Raina said raising her eyebrow.
Skye who was listening through the comms couldn't decide what to do, just until recently she didn't know anything about her father but now she had a chance of meeting him.
"Skye needs to know that her father loves her very much. That she was taken from him against his will. That he's spent her entire life searching for her." came Raina's voice through the comms making Skye's will waver only May's constant shaking of her head made her stop.
"No matter how much you have changed Director Coulson, deep down you are still a good man.No good man would intentionally keep a daughter from her father. Especially when so much is at stake" stated Raina as she looked at the timer then continued "You are running out of time. Give Skye what she always wanted or else Agent Simmons dies"
"No deal," said Coulson as he pushed the phone back towards raina with 39 seconds in the counter.
Skye decides to go out but May stops her, "Stand down Skye," she said
"Were you not listening if I don't go out there Simmons is gonna die" Skye said
"Coulson has a plan," said Melinda
"He also carves Alien writing on his desk. So maybe his judgment is not what it used to be." Skye said as she tried to go out there but May grabs her by her shoulders and pushed her to the wall and said "I said stand down"
"Coulson won't let her go there if he didn't have one of our best agents keeping an eye on her Skye. Simmons may not be the only one who infiltrated Hydra" came Grant's voice from the comms trying to calm her down.
"Look it's not too late. We can fix this no one needs to get hurt." Raina said looking desperate but Coulson didn't budge.
"Please" Raina begged but there was no response from Coulson as the countdown reaches zero.

With the file sent, all eyes are on Simmons. Simmons was confused as to what caused them to look at her like that but just as she returned to her table, she saw the image of her using the flex screen on her computer. As she turned her head she saw that every computer had the same photo which was enough for her to know that her identity is exposed.
Bakshi comes into the labs and sees her, "There she is grab her" he ordered as the two security guards with him run towards her.
Simmons started to run away from them and gets out of the laboratory and runs out in the hall only to meet Morse and the two guards following her.
"Oh no" Simmons cried but to her surprise instead of attacking her, Morse took out her battle staves and take care of the two guards.
"What Is happening?" asked Simmons in surprise.
"Don't worry?" Morse said as she picked a handgun from the knocked out guard and pulled Jemma with her "Coulson has a plan"
The two are pursued to the roof where they jump onto the awaiting cloaked Quinjet, piloted by Antoine Triplett.

At the same time in the restaurant.
Raina is surprised that Coulson didn't take the deal.
"I can't believe you would sacrifice one of your own agents," Rains said
"We all take risks in this business in your case it just didn't pay off," Coulson said shrugging his shoulders.
"I had no choice," Raina said
"Who is making you do this?" asked Coulson seeing that she was genuinely scared.
"HYDRA"
"They want the Obelisk but you don't have it. Skye's father does"
