 Making sure that Mushu is well hidden in the box she is packing together in her van, Skye looks around herself in a try to see if she has forgotten anything. Her eyes landing on the dancing hula girl Gwen had thought was a good edition to her van life. Smiling at the memory, she reaches for the doll and places it on top of everything else. Sure, that she has gotten everything this time around, Skye steps out of the van. Clint was going to kill her if he ever sees what happened to it.

Turning around, her eyes lands in a S.H.I.E.L.D agent stepping towards her van.

“Hey, no joy rides, okay? That’s my house.”

She tells the agent, only to roll her eyes as she sees him place a small device on the front and her van starts up by itself. Shaking her head, she turns around as her van drives away.

“Where do they think of this stuff?”

She asks, already having an idea of where and why. With a deep breath, she looks up and into the large plane. She has yet to hear anything from Maria and she worries that she is making a mistake by joining Coulson and May. But it was to late now and she starts walking up the ramp.

Her eyes lands on Lola and she smiles, Coulson had been right. The old car managed to get then to the airfield in ten minutes. How he had managed to keep silent about the fact that the car could fly all these hears was beyond her.

“Oh, agent Coulson told us the news.”

She hears Simmons say right in front of her, making Skye come to a sudden stop seeing as she and Fitz are standing right in front of her.

“What a wonderful surprise. Isn’t it, Fitz?”

“Yeah.”

“No, its wonderful.”

“Yeah, a surprise."

“You must be very excited.”

Skye blinks a few times as she looks at the two younger agents and how they keep talking over one another. She couldn’t tell if they were happy to see her or not, and the way they acted, it reminded her a bit of Natasha and Clint.

“Yep, first day of school.”

She replies, seeing how Fitz holds out his hands in a gesture to help her with her box, Skye takes a step back. She can see confusion in their eyes at her reaction and seeing how they look at one another, Skye rolls her eyes.

“Okay, so… just-“

Simmons starts to say as she moves past Skye and up the spiral stairs.

“Sorry. Yeah.”

She adds as she starts walking up, Fitz following after her as Skye takes yet another step away from him. With a deep breath, she starts following them up to the second floor. Reaching the second floor, Skye’s eyes travel towards the meeting room, and she can see Coulson, May and Ward in there talking.

“We have two kids on this bus who aren’t cleared for combat. You’re adding a third.”

She can hear May comment before she decides to block out the conversation. She might not be cleared for combat, but Skye gets the feeling she will be able to handle herself better than the two younger agents in front of her.

“Officially, it’s an airborne mobile command station. But we call it the BUS. We find it best to use shorthand when in the field. But everything has to be just so, you know, because of the danger.”

She turns her attention back to Fitz, completely missing the first parts of his talk about the plane.

“Yeah, I’ve been up here before, but I didn’t see much because of the bag that Agent Ward put over my head.”
