I stand with Ward (An Aos story)

Beginning of the End

~Maddison's pov~

"Doesn't matter" Garrett said, throwing the phone behind him, he walked towards the lab door and pulled the glassdoor off

"Are you all right?" Grant asked him

"What does it look like?" Garrett asked and he leaned the door against the wall "Never better, son. I need a nail. Get me a nail! A big one!" an agent walked over to him and gave him a nail

"I think he's gone crazy" I whispered to Ward, as he was drawing lines and circles on the glass

"Just getting some ideas down" Garrett chuckled "I can't keep everything in my head"

"I gotta be honest with you, John. Looks like you're kinda losing it" Ward said to him

"I'm alive for the first time, thanks to you" He answered "We took some hits along the way, but we did it. We did it!"

"Can't believe it. This is everything we've been working towards. Saving you. Our alliance with Hydra was always a means to that end, right?" Ward asked

"Symbiotic"

"And here we are. I mean, it's not like we're true believers, right?" He whispered to Garrett "Don't get me wrong, I'll go where you go, having our soldiers in key positions is great but then what? Are we really planning a coup?"

"It's more of an uprising . It's become bigger than Hydra. Ward, Maddison, you've taken good care of me. Gave me everything I wanted. It's time for you two to decide what it is you want and I'll see that you get it" Garrett told us both "I can do anything now"

~Time Skip~

"Gentlemen...Gentlemen, please I beg you..." Quinn started, when me, Garrett, Ward and Deathlok walked through the door

"Don't beg them, Quinn. You're not a Rottweiler. We don't need their scraps" Garrett interrupted him

"Who the hell is this?" The general asked

"This is our strategy consultant, John Garrett" Quinn told him

"I want full disclosure right now or our boys will come in and shut you down. Why do I hear gunfire?" He asked us

"You hear the dying breath of an old world, General. But a new world is coming, I've tasted it on my tongue" Garrett replied

"This is your strategy consultant?" The general asked

"He's part-time" Quinn commented, I tried not to laugh

"New strategy" Garrett told the general "You shut your mouth and give us everything we want" he threatened

"You threaten a United States General and there are consequences"

"Oh, you feel powerful now, don't you? But you're all just slaves who will serve our future"

"Listen, you crazy son of a btich"

"Gentlemen, perhaps a small demonstration will..." Quinn started

"Yes. oh, yes, a demonstration" Garrett said, he punched the guy sending his hand through him and lift him up "I've seen the future, I've glimpsed it through the eyes of every creature, dead, living, or yet to be...this is the beginning" and he ripped something out of the General

"The beginning of what, John?" Grant asked

"The end" He answered and hit the General in the face

~Time Skip~

"The compound's been hit. Riana and Quinn took off. We need to take action now, what are our orders?" I asked Garrett

"That's up to you, Maddie" He told me

"Wake up!" Ward yelled at him "Come back to reality, John. what do you need us to do?"

"You two have already done it" He told us, as his phone started to ring "It's your handler" Garrett said to Deathlok "Probably to tell me what the soldiers are seeing. Yeah?...Skye, you sound different on the phone. Huskier...No, I'm not too concerned, you see, if anyone but the assigned handler gives a directive to one of my men, well...Kaboom...Phil around? Great, we actually have a lot to talk about. Oh, and I wanted you to know, your scientist friends? They were brave until their last breath" and he hung up

"Riana told me how special Skye is" Garrett said to Ward "I know you've seen that from the start, you want orders? Get her"

"Thank you" Ward said and we walked

We approached the door of the soldier command center "You wait out here" Ward told me, I nodded and he walked into the room, I waited a while until someone grabbed me from behind and put there arm around my neck

I was struggling to breath I tried to yell but couldn't and everything went black

~Time Skip~

"Without regular injections, they're just men. Once doctors remove their cybernetic eyes, they'll be essentially back to normal" Coulson said

"Minus an eye, of course" Trip added, and the soldier stopped me and Ward in front of Coulson and Trip

"You got a chance to express all your feelings?" Coulson asked May

"Is he still breathing?" She asked

"I guess she kept some of it to herself"

"Ward's having trouble speaking, I think I fractured his larynx"

"Oh good, your attempt to cross off Fitz and Simmons failed but Fitz may never be the same again. So, I'm gonna invent new ways to ruin the rest of your lifes. And we'll do whatever's necessary to get Hydra intel from both of you, but your torture? That's gonna be internal" Coulson told us

"And a little bit external" May added

"Sure, some of that. But you two devoted your entire life to a deranged narcissist who never gave a damn about anyone, and now he's dead. And you two have got the rest of your life to wrestle with the question , "who are you without him?"
