Skye had been pulled from the van in a faked arrest by her handler and his trainee and was sitting on the couch in the living room of her home, waiting for Grant to show up with a surprise. He had been emotional when she had talked to him on the phone and said that she had needed to see this for herself.

She heard the front door opened and gasped in shock at the sight of Phil Coulson walking through the door. The tears threatening to fall from her husband's eyes made her realize that what she was seeing wasn't a dream.

Rushing into the arms of the man she had loved like her father, Skye felt his familiar arms go around her and clung to him desperately.

"You were dead, AC. How did Shield accomplish this?"

"Most of this is classified to level 8 operatives so I can't tell you much but I was given something that brought me back to life," he said gently. "I hear the two of you have somebody that you want me to meet."

Grant had left to get Cami when Caleb came into the room with a petite woman in her fifties with graying dark hair. She gasped in shock at the sight of Coulson standing there

"Uncle Phil!"

Caleb ran into his arms, hugging him tightly. Coulson smiled gently at the boy in his arms.

"It's great to see you buddy. How do you like having a sister?"

"It's okay. She sleeps and cries most of the time but I like it when she smiles and laughs at me, Aunt Skye and Uncle Grant."

Nothing was said as Grant stepped into the room, holding a thirteen pound baby girl with dark curls that looked exactly like her mother except for her hair color, cheekbones and the amber colored eyes that were all her father. She was a beautiful baby with a smile that lit up the room.

"Phil, meet Camilla Grace."

Coulson tearfully took the baby in his arms and smiled at her, already feeling his heart being lost to her.

"She is beautiful. How do the both of you leave her when you are on assignments?"

"It isn't easy but Agent Fletcher has been very helpful with taking care of them."

"Annabelle Fletcher is your nanny?"

"Yes. Director Fury thought we needed someone that had the skills to protect both Caleb and Cami if it was needed."

"Understood," Phil stated. "I now know why Fury is changing the Bus to have bigger living quarters for the four of you with a bunk for Agent Fletcher."

"What is the bus? Grant Douglas, what the hell is going on here?"

"I have been promoted to level seven and have been assigned to Coulson's Mobile Unit. Fury is reassigning you to the same unit and making arrangements for Agent Fletcher and the kids to be with us."

"Grant, Caleb is in school now."

"Agent Fletcher is going to be tutoring him as well."

"Who's on the team?"

"Melinda May will be the pilot and two young scientists named Leo Fitz and Jemma Simmons will be working in the lab. They aren't combat ready yet but are two of the best minds at Shield."

"So Fury wants my children on a team where two of its members can't protect them if something happens? Not a chance in hell."

"Skye…"

"Phil, I'm a mother now and those two and their safety are my top priority."

"Skye, I will work with them myself and personally make sure they know how to protect themselves and our children," Grant stated, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder.

"Fine but I want to assist you in helping them."

Coulson gently kissed Cami on the forehead before handing her to Grant and hugging both Caleb and Skye one last before turning to leave.

"I will see you both on the Bus tomorrow. We have our first assignment already. They want us to find our newest Superhero."

"I have a video of him. I was there when the building blew up and was getting ready to call it in when my handler arrested me," Skye said, knowing that her overprotective husband was about to flip out.

"What the hell were you doing there?"

"A part of my assignment was to find out anything that the Rising Tide could use against Shield and Project Centipede came up. Fury told me to investigate it some more and call in any information that might help."

"Send me the video and I will get Fitzsimmons started on it right away," Coulson said before the arguing couple could say anything else. "The both of you are to report in the morning to the plane while Agent Fletcher will come with the children a little bit later."

Coulson left the apartment and stopped short at the sight of a dark haired man in a suit walking with Lily Ward towards Skye and Grant's apartment. She stopped short before hugging him tightly.

"Fury called me and told me what happened. It is great to see you alive. I would be prepared for Clint and Natasha to call you, furious for being kept out of the loop on this," Lily stated before motioning to the man with her. "Philip Coulson, this is Dr. Cal Zabo. He is Skye's biological father. Cal, this is a dear friend of our family, Phil Coulson. He has been there for Skye as a father figure. I am stating this now. She is a grown woman and needs the both of you in her life. I don't want you fighting over her or I will get into it with the both of you and given what you know about me, my reaction won't be pretty if my baby is hurt. Grant's reaction will be worse than mine. This is about what is best for Skye, not hurt feelings."

Both men silently acknowledge her words and shake hands, still wary of the other. Coulson watched as Cal and Lily stepped into the apartment, hearing Caleb call out 'grandpa' before the door closed.

Skye and Grant watched as Cal held Cami on his lap and smiled at Caleb as he showed him the new Iron Man action figure he had gotten for his birthday. Lily walked up to them, hugging her daughter before doing the same with her nephew.

"I saw Phil outside and introduced him to Cal. I told the both of them that you need them both in your life and that they weren't to fight over you."

"Mom, did you know that he was still alive?" Skye asked Lily, curious as to how much she knew.

"No, I didn't. This was one of Nicholas' little secrets that piss me off."

"Aunt Lily, you said a bad word!"

Skye, Grant, Cal and Lily all laugh at Caleb's words before the latter walked over to her nephew, picked him and sat down on the couch with him on her lap.

"Yes, I said a word that I shouldn't have and sometimes grownups say things like that when they shouldn't but that doesn't make it right."

"Aunt Skye makes Uncle Grant put a dollar in the swear jar for every bad word he says when he comes home after a mission has gone wrong."

"I guess I better put a dollar in the jar then," Lily said, picking up her purse and taking out her wallet.

Skye walked over with a glass jar in her hand and let her mother put a dollar in the jar before putting it up.

Cami started to cry and Skye took her from her father's arms.

"I need to feed her. I will be back in little bit."

She left the room with Grant right behind her.

"She is still scared to be around me, Lily."

"Cal, she has just found out about you and has to process everything. It will take some time for her to deal with everything she has learned about you and the death of her mother. Have some patience with her and don't tense up everytime she is called Skye by everybody else. She doesn't remember being called Daisy; although that is hell of a lot better than what the nuns called her at St. Agnes."

"Do I even want to know?"

"They called her Mary Sue Poots."

"No wonder she changed her name to Skye."

"That's why when I adopted her; we changed her name to Mary Skye instead."

"How do I do this, Lily? Every time I think about Shield taking my baby from me and changing her name, I get angry and I know if I do what I want to, I will lose my daughter."

"That is why you can't retaliate even against the man who killed your wife because you will lose Skye and your granddaughter."

AN: The next chapter will deal with meeting Fitzsimmons and getting into finding Mike Petersen. I have had to do a lot thinking of how they would make room for an infant and a five year old on the Bus and how their presence changes things for the events of season 1. I have also been working on a new story that I haven't posted yet but have written six chapters in a week. I am just waiting for the right time to post it.
