Ambush in Manitowoc

This battle happened between S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Slicing Talons.

Background
Robert Coulson, with his wife and son, lived in Manitowoc, Wisconsin as a school teacher and high school football coach.

Robert's son Phil Coulson would ultimately work for S.H.I.E.L.D., lead his own team, and recruit a young woman named Skye. Phil would grow close to Skye, to the point that she viewed him as a father figure in her life.

The true father of Skye, Calvin Zabo, hated S.H.I.E.L.D. after HYDRA operatives, using the organization's name, kidnapped and killed his wife and abducted of his daughter. Zabo observed that Coulson and Skye were close and grew jealous, but, when Coulson kept Zabo from exacting his revenge on Daniel Whitehall by killing him himself, Zabo's hatred for Coulson became personal. He desired to humiliate him.

Skye was an Inhuman and recently developed her powers of earthquake-generation. However, as a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, she needed to be placed on the Index and given a psychological profile. Andrew Garner was recruited to give the profile. Since Skye did not have full control over her powers, she stayed on the Bus.

Zabo knew that S.H.I.E.L.D. would place Skye on the Index and viewed it as discriminatory. He began gathering individuals from the Index that he felt were treated unfairly by S.H.I.E.L.D. These people included Wendell Levi, Francis Noche, and Karla Faye Gideon.

Meanwhile, Bobbi Morse and Director Coulson were investigating a breakout at Brynmore Psychiatric Facility, a facility that held two Index candidates, one being David Angar.
