Always ⊳ Grant Ward [2] ✓

09 | NEW ALLIES

    "IT IS YOUR FAULT THAT HE IS FREE" Mack blamed me. I look at him with a blank expression. 

"I didn't do anything. I didn't help him." I snapped at him. Fitz stood between me and Mack, hoping to contain the calm. If I didn't dislike him enough before, I certainly do now. 

"You were on a relationship with him. You could have just told him everything you know about the team." Mack said to me. 

"Never in a million years, I would have betrayed my team like he did. I'm better than that. I know how to think for myself, unlike him. So, I believe you shut that little mouth of your before I sealed myself by sawing it." I yelled at him. I looked at Fitz for support. 

"Don't think he would support you now that the man who changed him as escape." Mack snapped at me, clenching his fist. 

"But I will support her." Fitz told Mack. I sighed, leaning on the table. 

"Mack you might be new, but just so you know; I would risk my life to save one of my team. Even it means getting shot in the gut twice." I told him blankly. Skye looked at with regret in her eyes. "Don't think for once second that I'm a coward. I will kill if it means my team is save. Even if it means I have to  die for them to life. So, before you open your mouth: I recommend you know the person first before judging or assume that they are bad people." I told him, walking out of the lab. Hunter walked out following me. 

"Hey, don't let him get to you." Hunter said to me. I turned around to look at him. Grant told me to trust in on this one, but the problem was that I had no idea what he was doing. 

"Do you trust me? Do you believe I did something or planned something, so Ward could escape?" I asked him. Hunter looked at me surprised. 

"Love honestly, I know you didn't such thing. Even if I don't know it, I do trust you." Hunter said to me. 

"They hate me Lance. I don't care about Mack because he is an ass, but what about the rest." I told him worried. "I locked myself out because I had to talk to him. I don't know what he is doing or what he is planning." 

"Look, we will figure something out." Hunter told me, putting a hand on my shoulder. 

I shrugged off, taking a few steps away from Hunter. "We can't. They will put a bullet through his head. I have to do it myself." I told him, starting to walk away. 

"You don't have to do it by yourself. You have my word that I would not put a bullet through his head. I only will do it if you let me or in case your life is steak." Hunter said to me, following. I stopped right in my tracks. 

"Why are you so determine to help me? The team will hate you too. They already hate me. I got nothing to loose. You do, Bobbie and the whole team." I told him, pointing towards the direction of the lab. Hunter crossed his arms over his chest; a thing he does when he is loosing his patience. 

"Yeah, you do. You will loose me and Fitz. I will also loose you." Hunter snapped at me. I sighed, putting my hand on my waist. I looked at Hunter with a 'are you serious' look. "I'm being serious. I will hate to loose you. I know you will hate to loose me too." Hunter said, pointing at me. I gave him a sad smile. "Just listen, you don't have to do this alone. You don't have to go through the Ward thing alone. I told you dad before, didn't I?" He asked me. I nodded at him. "Good," 

"Still, I have to do this alone." I sighed. Hunter groan in annoyance. 

"You are so stubborn." He said. 

"I know," I told him. I looked down at my boots. "I gave Fitz a phone with a private line. He has it hidden somewhere. It meant to be for emergencies. I gave it to him so he can contact me while I was away. Just tell him, I told you." I told him. Hunter looked down at the floor.
