Who | Skye + you!
What | Skye arrives and is upset with this entire situation, to absolutely no one's surprise.
Where | Training Center, various locations therein
When | Now
Warnings/Notes | Mild language warnings.
[ District 6 Suite ]
At first when Skye wakes up she thinks Hydra must have her, and it's only the nausea and disorientation sweeping over her that prevents her from trying to physically assault one of the peacekeepers when they come to lead her away.
(Portals are such a bitch. Thanks for nothing, stupid Nordic alien gods.)
It's once they get her to the Training Center and give her the vague welcome spiel that she realizes how wrong she was. This isn't Hydra. This is, if it's even possible, much worse.
She drags herself into the bathroom and stares at her reflection in the mirror, feeling numb and cold as she tries to process what she's been told. A battle to the death. Things were just starting to seem like they'd be able to make a go for the better, and now she's here, trapped in some foreign world for a celebrity deathmatch. Are you kidding me? Are you freaking kidding me? And then: there it is, anger, bubbling up hot and fast. She wrestles it down.
First things first: she needs more information, and she needs to see if she can find her team. Skye pushes her hair back and steps out of the bedroom to meet her suitemates.

She's fiddled with her network device by now, and already figured out the vast breadth of digital information is locked to her--for now. The Tributes list and network had no records of her team, but that doesn't mean anything. They could be here off the record, under lock and key. She knows nothing about how these people operate.
On the other hand, she did see several other familiar names and faces, and her stomach flipped nervously when she saw them. Really? They're pitting a Level 1 agent up against the Avengers? Talk about unfair play.
So in the meantime, she's stuck to good, old-fashioned info hunting. Which is to say, she'd changed into a brightly-colored dress upstairs and is now approaching strangers downstairs with a stunning, confident smile, one hand held out to shake. "Hi! I don't think we've met yet. I'm Skye."

"Sure, but you're buying." Because it doesn't matter what universe they're in, he's still a billionaire superhero and she's still a girl who used to live in a van. As she turns to follow him, she mulls over his mentions of Thor and Steve Rogers. The Capitol can dial super soldiers and alien space gods down to relatively normal. That is scary stuff.
Oh fuuuuun
"You know, I think we have a deal there." He keeps walking ahead of her, seeing if she would trail behind him or try to walk beside him. Because just like all people that catch his interest, he just has to play with them a little first.
"So, what were you up to before coming to our futuristic coliseum? Other than googling Hydra."

So she settles on: "Hanging out with a bunch of dead guys." Put Coulson, Fury, Mike, and herself in a room together, and it's like a zombie robot party.

"So, met Captain America then?"
After all he was thought to be dead for 70 years at least.
"Sounds like a laugh riot if you ask me."
