Chapter 44


Skye groaned as she woke up, rolling her neck to try and soothe the dull ache.

"Skye?"

Skye craned her neck slightly to see the person tied to a chair behind her. "Hey. Any idea where we are?"

Ward looked around. "From what I can tell, probably some sort of underground base."

"What do they want with us?"

"The man who came in earlier was the same man behind the last few missions we've had. I think he just wants to finish business."

"Well, he's terrible at his job considering how many times you've gotten away from him," Skye chuckled.

"Maybe I'm just that good," Ward smirked, pulling a knife from his shoe.

"I thought you weren't supposed to see the bride on the day of the wedding," Skye joked as Ward struggled with the ropes that tied her hands behind her back. The rope suddenly snapped and Ward stood up, offering her a hand. She took it and he smiled.

"Sorry, couldn't be helped."

They burst through the door of where they were being held and made their way towards the exit. Skye stopped in her tracks and looked the opposite way. She pointed down the hallway and Ward shrugged, "may as well see what were up against."

They walked swiftly down the hallway towards the double doors Skye had pointed to. Skye threw the open and they were met with an empty computer room. Skye looked around and noticed a strange disk on the side of one of the computers. "My guess is that they're rigged to blow us anyone tries to open certain files on these computers," Skye said as she examined one.

"So they're bombs."

"Indeed. So you think they can be rewired to make the entire base blow?"

The shrieking sound of an alarm pierced the air and Ward looked back at Skye. "I'd say that if we had a chance, we'd better do it quickly." He walked towards the bomb and started working on disabling it while Skye stood by, watching.

After a minute, Ward lifted he bomb off of the computer and moved it over to one of the walls. "If I'm correct, this is one of the main walls. Blow this one up..."

"The entire base falls," Skye grinned and nodded, "I knew there was a reason I was marrying you."

Ward smirked and attached the bomb to the wall, resetting it to explode.

The pair ran out of the room and down the hallway. Ward put his arm out to stop Skye and he held a finger to his lips, pointing at the hallway they were about to turn in to.

"Find them!" A man barked out orders.

"Stay here," Ward whispered, "I'm going to get us guns."

Skye nodded uneasily as Ward walked away from her, approaching their opponents from behind. She heard a loud cacophony of grunts and bullets and squeezed her eyes tightly. Ward popped around the corner a moment later, handing her a gun. "Here. Let's get out of here before the whole place blows."

Skye nodded fervently and followed Ward through the rest of the base and towards the exit.

They made it out of the building having only got caught in a few small scuffles and with only a few scratches, nothing too serious.

Ward held the door open for Skye and they ran as fast as the could to get away from the building.

Skye caught her breath as she and Ward jumped behind a car as the explosion went off. She smiled at him, "one thing's for sure, I've never looked more awesome."

Ward laughed, "running away from an explosion with a wedding hairdo while wearing a Star Wars t-shirt and sweatpants? Definitely awesome."

Skye grinned like the Cheshire Cat. "Now, come on, Mr. Ward. I do believe you and I are late for a wedding."
