Lighthouse

"You think the Lighthouse is a prison? Sweetheart... prison would be nice."

- Deke to Daisy Johnson

The Lighthouse is a massive bunker located in a post-apocalyptic chunk of the Earth's crust. It is overruled by the Kree Watch, specifically Kasius and contains a society of subjugated Humans and Inhumans. After being mysteriously teleported there by the White Monolith, Phil Coulson and his team inhabited the Lighthouse.

Early History
The Lighthouse was built as a bunker underneath Lake Ontario in the case of an apocalyptic event.

Fitz' Mission
A Chronicom named Enoch eventually discovered the existence of the Lighthouse. Along with the help of Lance Hunter; Enoch helped Leo Fitz learn the whereabouts of his team. Because of a prophecy by the Inhuman Robin Hinton, they were sent to the Lighthouse in the year 2091. Fitz eventually entered a Cryo-Freeze Chamber and was sent to orbit a distant planet for 74 years.

Enslaved Society
After the destruction of the Earth, a large group of Humans survived in the bunker, but were soon enslaved by a group of Kree, known as the Kree Watch. The Kree would assert their rule over humanity by forcing them to wear Metrics, a mechanical device that tracked their movements and forced them to comply. The Kree Watch was under the command of a Kree named Kasius, who would also enforce his rule by preforming rituals known as a Renewal where the inhabitants are forced to kill the poorest among them. They are forced to follow the rule of "A Life Spent, A Life Earned."

Kasius would frequently take the Inhumans who lived on the Lighthouse and have them fight in the Crater to display their abilities as an auction for intergalactic bidders. He also instituted a system where all Inhumans were mandated to go through Terrigenesis at the age of 18. They would also control the Inhuman population with Inhuman Control Devices, which allows the Kree Watch to suppress their abilities.

Occasionally, the Kree would take some Humans to personally serve them. They would consider this a great honor, but the people were typically brainwashed into submission.

Some inhabitants of the Lighthouse, known as The Old Ones, or the True Believers began to pass down legends of The Destroyer of Worlds, and how she was responsible for the end of the world. They would also tell stories about how S.H.I.E.L.D. would return one day to liberate humanity and save the world. Among the True Believers was a man named Virgil who believed in the prophecy.

One popular place for the inhabitants of The Lighthouse is the Exchange, a place popular for trading and gathering among the civilians.

Infestation of Roaches
A group of Vrellnexians managed to break into the third level of the Lighthouse from the surface of the Earth. Ever since, the Kree have sealed it off from the rest of the Lighthouse. The Vrellnexians managed to kill everyone who had entered the restricted area.

Arrival of S.H.I.E.L.D.
After being abducted by the Chronicom anthropologist named Enoch, Phil Coulson and his team were teleported with a White Monolith to the Lighthouse. The first to arrive, Coulson landed on the third level frozen in time. When time resumes, a breached window of the station begins to aspire the air before its closed. Coulson then encounters two inhabitants of the Lighthouse, and one of them mysteriously recognizes Coulson as and Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.. The other inhabitant gets ferociously killed by a Vrellnexian and Couslon and Virgil flee. Virgil then explains that he has come to fulfill a prophecy to save the humanity before getting knocked out by a recently teleported Alphonso Mackenzie. The three then flee the room.

On another side of the third level, Yo-Yo Rodriguez arrives into a corpse-filled room with a masked-Jemma Simmons, and first attacks her before recognizing her. While inspecting the bodies, Coulson and Mack enter the room with an unconscious Virgil. The four begin discussing their circumstances Virgil wakes up and explains that they were all legends in history. After telling the prophecy; Virgil is killed by a Roach and the team flees before being cornered in a hallway. Luckily, Quake appears and kills the Vrellnexian, saving the team. Once they were all safe they began searching the level for answers.

At the breached window, Deke floats into the room from outer space and begins searching the level before encountering an injured Melinda May. The two fight before Deke incapacitates May with a Gravity Manipulation Device. He then implants a Metric into her arm and takes her away.

The other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents then find the room in which May and Deke were previously in and discover a computer programmed in English, making them believe they could send a message to Earth. They begin to make a plan before they were interrupted by the Kree Watch.

Phil Coulson, Jemma Simmons, and Quake were taken to a cell where two Kree were stationed outside. They were in the middle of a conversation before Deke enters the room with Melinda May. Deke then bribes the guards to let the team go. Outside, the four overpower Deke. Simmons and May then head down to level nine to find the Trawler. Coulson stays to interrogate Deke, while Daisy goes to find Yo-Yo and Mack.

Meanwhile, Yo-Yo Rodriguez and Alphonso Mackenzie were brought to a room for torture and. They were repeatedly beaten by the Kree guards before being rescued by Quake. The three then kill the two Kree. After killing the Kree, they begin searching the computers, and they discover that they have time-traveled to the post-apocalyptic Earth.

On level nine, May and Simmons find and enter the Trawler. They then fly it out of the bunker, and realize they are in the future. While Coulson was interrogating Deke, he had also discovered that they had time-traveled.

After Simmons and May return from their flight, they reunite with Coulson and Deke. They then begin to postulate ways to time-travel back to their own period, but remain confused. Simmons, Coulson, and May then decide that they must blend in with the rest of the inhabitants of the Lighthouse in order to survive. While navigating the Lighthouse, the four ran into Tess, an inhabitant worried about Virgil. After learning of the circumstances of his death, she agreed to carry on his mission of protecting the S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents by paying Deke to continue to help them.

Deke then joins Yo-Yo, Mack, and Daisy to bitterly help them hide the bodies of the dead Kree guards. They dump the Kree in a room on level three with the hopes of the Vrellnexians might eat the evidence.

Meanwhile in an elevator, Tess explains to Coulson, May, and Simmons that the circumstances of the apocalypse are mostly a mystery, but there was some cataclysmic event and soon after the Kree showed up and erased all historical data and established their rule. They then arrive at the Exchange and realize their grim reality. Coulson and Tess then decide to search Virgil's room for any information, while Simmons and May remain in the Exchange.

Together, Tess and Coulson encounter Grill, the taskmaster of the Salvage. He questions them about the recently used Trawler, and learns of Virgil's death.

Once Tess and Coulson arrive to Virgil's room, they discover his journal which was used as a flight-log.

Meanwhile Jemma and May are in the Exchange, the Kree Watch decides to provide extra food for the most vulnerable inhabitants. Soon a fight breaks out over rations and one of Kasius' servants gets stabbed during the commotion. Sinara then kills the man responsible with her orbs. Simmons then proceeds to give the bleeding servant medical care, which attracts the attention of the Kree by breaking their rule of no saving lives. They then proceed to take her in to interrogate her.

Once Daisy, Yo-Yo, Mack and Deke reunite with May, Coulson and Tess, they learn of Simmons' fate. Tess and Deke then begin to privately question whether or not if the prophecy made by the True Believers could be true.

The team then decides to steal a Kree Tablet, and to tail Deke to figure out what he is hiding.

Daisy follows Deke through a secret door and discovers his clandestine Framework program. She is then pulled into the program with Deke unwillingly.

In Kasius' Suites, Jemma is forced to shower and present herself to Kasius. He then begins to express his fascination with her, and how she learned her medical skills. She lies to him and claims she works in Processing, but he notices the lack of Metric on her arm and becomes increasingly suspicious of her. Kasius then decides to hold another Renewal in the response to increasing resistance in the Lighthouse.

Coulson and his team then begin their plan to retrieve a Kree Tablet. Coulson begins by turning the valve and releasing hot steam to draw the attention of the Kree. While they are preoccupied, Yo-Yo uses her super-speed to retrieve the tablet without them noticing.

Renewal
The Kree then begin enforcing a Metric inspection for the upcoming Renewal, which prompts the team to panic and trade their loyalty to Grill for helping them to install Metrics.

When the Renewal begins, those chosen begin scrambling for weapons planted by the Kree Watch in the Exchange. This forces May and Tess to flee, and head towards the Salvage to unite with the rest of the team.

Meanwhile at the Salvage, Grill manipulates the Metrics on Coulson, Yo-Yo, and Mack so that they are magnetically trapped on the wall. He does this to guarantee his safety during the Renewal. A man named Holt who owes a life then bursts into the Salvage looking for Grill for payment. Right before Holt is about to shoot Coulson, May arrives and disarms him. As May and Holt fight, Tess manages to steal his shotgun and kills him before he kills anyone else.

During the Renewal, Reese returned to Kasius' Suites scarred. However this upset Kasius, because he no longer looked perfect, so he could not represent him. As a result, he decides to make Sinara execute Reese and brainwash Jemma as his new assistant.

After the Renewal had ended, the Kree entered the room to finish inspecting Metrics. Tess and the S.H.I.E.L.D. team are then left to dispose of Holt's body and fully integrate into the Lighthouse.

Design and Capabilities
"Well, I think I know how they're creating artificial gravity for the station." "That can't be." "What is it?" "Unless I am mistaken, and I hope I am, that's..." "Gravitonium."
