Gravity Zero

10. The Power of 8%

"Hey...I got a question..." – trailed Jason – "if Ruby gets powered and you can't quake...that could be a disadvantage...then how do we stop her?" – He asked

"Reason with her, as someone who got her powers I know how that feels and if we take Creel as example is not gonna be pretty at all, so she will need someone like I needed when I was learning myself" – said Daisy

"Let's just hope is the right call" – said May with a serious look

"Agent Johnson, we got something" – called an agent making them approach the computer the guy was seeing a location in it

"Our scans show a number of mechs outside the facility" – announced Daisy approaching a computer – "take them out, secure the perimeter, only Agent May, Agent Lee, Hale, and I will be going in and if this goes sideways, be ready to evacuate, now gear up" – she explained to everybody

"Promise me you won't hurt Ruby" – said Hale

"Not unless I have to, it isn't her fault she is the way she is" – said Daisy – "she's driven, she's a great fighter and with the right guidance, she could make a really good agent" – she explained to the woman

"A S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent..." – said Hale in disbelieve – "you're not serious" – she added

"Could be worse, she could really become the "Destroyer of Worlds" and kill everybody, so I don't see the downfall of she being an agent" – said Jason supporting the brown haired girl earning a glare from the general

"We're about to need all the help we can get" – said Daisy

"Tell me what I can do" – said Hale

"If we are too late, you will need to talk her down. we can't let things get out of hand" – explained Daisy to her

"Of course, I just want Ruby to be okay" – said Hale

"You ladies about finished?" – asked May annoyed approaching them as they got right into the facility location

The Quinjet landed and they got out of it carefully looking around and walking slowly, Jason, May and Daisy were ready for any trap looking around while Hale looked worried and desperate to find her daughter and as they were inside the facility they hear a girl screaming, Hale called for her daughter running on the lead with the agents right behind her finding a room with Fitz, Simmons, Werner Von Strucker and Ruby inside a machine screaming

"Shut it down!" – Ordered Hale to the married scientist on the verge of tears and they did as she told them quickly – "are we too late?" – She asked panting

"I don't know, she only took in 8% of the Gravitonium" – said Fitz when the machine suddenly opened and air hissed while Ruby floated out of it leaving everybody surprised

"Ruby!" – Called Hale and the girl suddenly reacted falling on her knees

"It's okay, hey, hey" – said Werner approaching her

"Oh, they're screaming! They're fighting" – complained Ruby groaning

"I've got you" – said Werner

"Help me" – pleaded Ruby

"I'm not going anywhere" – said Werner making Ruby look up to him and try to caress his face only to start crushing his head with her powers surprising and scaring everybody around while she cried

"I didn't mean to" – cried Ruby noticing everybody looking at her – "Oh, God. Get out! No! No! Get out of me! Please make them stop!" – She complained grabbing her head

"Make...make...make who stop?" – Asked Fitz stuttering scared and confused

"All of them! Just please...please put me back in the machine! Get it out of me!" – cried Ruby as she seem to be losing the control of herself
