Hail HYDRA | Skyeward

Episode 10: Maveth

***

Grant, Daisy and the HYDRA soldiers were walking with Fitz down a steep hill, the sandstorm had finally cleared but there was no sunlight. Fitz who was holding his jacket looked around, before reaching a stable part of the hill and walking backwards for a bit. "Is something wrong?" Fitz ignored Grant and started walking again. "Fitz." Grant started following.

Daisy turned to the soldiers. "Go ahead and scout that ridge." She said before following Grant and Fitz.

"Yes ma'am." A soldier replied as he and the other walked off.

Grant looked at his watch. "We have less than six hours to find the next portal and go home." He warned.

"Why don't you shut the hell up so I can concentrate? This program's a work in progress, designed from Simmons' limited data and hypothetical calculations," Fitz turned around showing Daisy and Grant the tablet. "See?" Fitz tapped on the screen at their location. "Our exit location is determined by the position of the..."

"Just figure it out." Daisy interrupts as Fitz moves closer to them.

Daisy and Grant both glance away for a moment and Fitz takes the opportunity to try and grab Daisy's gun, instead she grabbed his wrist as soon as he placed a hand on the holster and punched him, sending him rolling down the hill.

Grant and Daisy follow with two HYDRA soldiers and Grant grabs Fitz's arm and holds it behind his back in a really painful position. "Aah!"

"Let me be clear, if Daisy and I don't make it back, Simmons will be killed, slowly, horribly. It'd all be your fault. Is that what you want?" Grant asked.

"What do you want? Why are we here? Find some ancient, mythical creature. Wake up, Ward, Skye." Fitz said.

"Daisy." the brunette corrected.

"This is a snark hunt, and the only reason Malick sent you is because you're expendable and Daisy only came along to make sure you survive but even she's expendable to Malick and right now she's the only person you care about more than yourself." Fitz said, Grant glanced at Daisy for a moment, wondering just for a second if Fitz was right about her being expendable to Malick.

"I can look after myself." Daisy snarked.

HYDRA soldiers call over to Daisy and Grant. "Ma'am, Sir, over here!"

"Move," Daisy said to Fitz, he didn't so she pushed him. "Move!" She yelled.

They arrive down a hill and notice a grumbling version of HYDRA's logo. "Is that..." Fitz trailed off.

"Hail HYDRA." Daisy and Grant said smirking.

"Hey, here's a great idea. Why don't we go to an alien world and summon a hell beast? Yeah, that's a brilliant idea. What could possibly go wrong with that? How are you supposed to find it?" Fitz asked, walking with Daisy and Grant either side of him.

"Not your concern." Grant replied.

"You just whisper its name three times into a mirror? Or do you put a saucer of milk outside the door at night?" Fitz asked sarcastically.

"Not milk." Daisy answered.

"Ah, yes, you're right. Simmons said it can smell blood. That's not disturbing at all. Who wouldn't want to be on that team?" Fitz wondered sarcastically, he walks over to another area, Daisy and Grant follow, Fitz looked at his table. "Uh... I think that's the ridge we're looking for. You know, uh, Simmons also said it can drive people crazy." He added looking back at the two former team members.
