A Hard Day's Night
“That went better than normally.” Daisy said as he the plane entered its next world.
“let’s see where we are.” Scott said “Gps is good… got a reading…, and we get… Los Angeles. Local time on this earth is… 3AM.”
Scott found a large enough clearing atop a ridge in Griffith Park to set down. Most of the group went to sleep while Scott went to work fixing his car.
Around dawn, Daisy walked into the rear bay to find Scott sat on the ramp.
“What are you doing awake?’ He asked.
“I got lonely…” she joked, sitting down next to him “how’s it going?”
“Charger port is repaired; I’m almost done with the cloak. I wish fixing the engine on the plane was this easy. Any leads?”
“No Bobbi, no SHIELD, no Hydra, no purple eyed people.”
“So why did they come here?”
“Maybe it was an accident?”
“Has anything here really been an accident? Everywhere we go we end up exactly where we need to be.”
By the time the sun was full up, the others had awoken and joined them outside.
“So far this place seems to be on the up and up” Daisy told them “Best we can tell, it’s not our objective, Bobbi was never born here. But she had to have come here for a reason. Scott and I are going to head into downtown now that we have a working set of wheels again. Barry, you can tag along if you’d like.
“Fitz, we haven’t had a chance to look over our failed engine. See if you can get the professor here to help you.”
The two men glared at each other.
“You” She said to her double “If you want my trust, keep them from fighting.”
“Can do.” Seven said
“Jemma, you keep an eye on Jas, make sure she’s comfortable.”
“that’s what I’ve spend most of the last few days doing.” Jemma said with a sigh
“Lincoln, you rest. You’ve had it rough.”
“You sure you don’t need my help?” Lincoln asked
“Not right now, but if we do, you’ll know.”
The group broke up and Scott stood there next to Daisy.
“See, that wasn’t so hard. You don’t need to be the leader, just know you’re great it if the need comes.”
“Please stop trying.” She said as she started towards the car.
“OK. You’re the boss…”
She turned back and glared at him.
“OK… fine…” he said as he followed.
“Surprised no one noticed us.” Barry said as the three walked out of the alleyway they’d parked in.
“It’s nice to be invisible…” Scott said hitting the key fob on the car and switching the cloak on.
They started down the street. “Never though I be this happy to see this many people” he joked before stopping in his tracks and looking up.
“Um?”
Barry stopped and looked in the direction Scott was looking
“No way…”
Daisy stopped and turned back around
“You two alright?”
Scott put his hand on her head and turned it, pointing it upwards towards the massive banner hanging from a building across the street.
“Daisy Johnson”
“The ‘All I Want is You’ Tour”
“Staples Center August 22-25”
To the one side was a massive photo of Daisy smiling. The other had her posing cutely.
“What the hell?” she said.
Daisy pulled out her phone and hopped on a nearby wifi signal, then goggled her name.
A YouTube video was the first hit. Daisy tapped play.
Her mouth fell open.
“I’m a pop star!?!” She said as she watched herself dancing and singing on the screen.
“Oh MY GOD!” they heard someone shout behind them “There she is! It’s DAISY!”
“Oh shit” Scott said, noticing a crowd of people looking at them. “Daisy… Barry… I’d say something funny right now, but.. fuck it, just run…” as a crowd of screaming teenagers started chasing after them.
