Always ⊳ Grant Ward [2] ✓

05 | NEW LOVE

     I WATCHED AS Skye shot her targets. She had been train by May this past couple of months. I hit all my targets on the heart on on the head; Skye was almost there. "I imaged it was Ward." Skye told me.

"You have to imagen it is your target, not a certain person." May corrected her. "You heart beat stayed consistent, great." May added. We followed her to the guns. "I want you to get used to this. It is a snipper rifle."

"Those are the best." I commented.

"Sorry, but one good question. Did you went to SHIELD academy?" Hunter asked me.

"No," I answered him, setting my gun down.

"Did you?" He asked Skye.

"No," Skye said.

"Coulson mentioned you were a field agent." Hunter said to Skye.

"Which one?" I asked him, taking a sip of my water.

"Senior." He said to me. I laughed at this.

"Well, I was. The first time that I was on the field was the day before everything went boom." Skye said, making explosive motions.

"Yeah, I remember that day." I said. "Wrost day of my life."

"Because the best feeling in the world is getting stabbed on the back by the person you love the most." Skye added. I smile at her.

"Stabbed on the back?" Hunter asked me.

"That is an story for another time." I replied.

"Have you ever taken someone out?" He asked me curious.

"Many times." I told him.

"None." Skye said.

"Hey, don't you have an inventory to do?" May asked Hunter.

"Now I do." Hunter said, waling towards the boxes "I'm going to apologize for the 72th time" Hunter said to May. "Have a wonderful rest of the day ladies." He said to the three of us, walking away. Me and Skye salute him.

"I like him." I told Skye.

"Don't get attached. He is a mercenary after all." May said.

"I don't get attach that easy after the Ward incident. I learn from my mistakes," I told May.

My phone started to buzz against the metal table." I think they are calling you." Skye said, handing me the phone.

I answered the phone. "Hey," I said on the found.

"You sound excited." James said through the other line.

"I kind of am." I told him. I walked away from the shooting ring. "Did you find anything on the guy I sent you?" I asked him. I had asked James to find the identity of the guy Creel was taking to the other day.

"I did, his name is Sunil Bakshi. He has a pretty high rank on HYDRA." James said.

"Where are you?" I asked him.

"On a base." He said out of breath.

"HYDRA I'm guessing." I told him.

"You are correct." He said.

"That is how they get to you. You get trapped in a HYDRA facility, bye bye to the new James; and hello to brainwashed James." I told him through the phone.

"It is nice that you care." He said. I could image the smirk on his face.

"I.." I didn't know how to respond. "Just don't get yourself killed." I said, hanging up the phone.
