Ward wasn't sure how Miles would get from where ever he was to Austin Texas in less than 24 hours, but he knew since the Hydra/Shield conflict was involved, Miles would find a way.
Ward patiently sipped his coffee, every now and then glancing down at his digital watch.
12:59 (pm)
He doesn't react as a familiar man slides in the booth across from him.
"Where's Skye?"
Ward smiles at him, taking in his appearance.
"She's in the bathroom." He replies. "She'll come back."
Miles nods unconvinced.
"You and I though..." Ward says pausing. "I need to show you something outside really quickly."
Miles glances around, then leans forward.
"Can you tell me what it is?" He asks grinning.
"No."
Miles looks disappointed.
"Ok."
Ward stands up and walks out, not looking back, knowing that the hacker is following.

"Uhhh... So now can you tell me what it is you wanted to show me?" Miles asks, with a yawn, looking around the empty back alley.
Ward smiles at him sadly.
"Skye really looked up to you, once upon a time, before you turned out be kind selfish, you know."
"Huh?"
Ward lunges and slams Miles against the brick wall behind him.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Miles yells, his face inches from Ward's.
Ward sneers at him, pulling a gun out and aiming at Miles' head.
"What I should've done a LONG time ago."
Ward starts to pull the trigger, but Miles kicks out, making him stumble just a bit, his hand loosening on the gun.
"What. THE. HELL?" Miles roars. "Where the hell is Skye? Did you hurt her???! What did you do the rest of the team? Huh??"
"No." Ward spits, aiming the gun at Miles, who is still backed against the wall, just not in his grip. "She doesn't even know I'm here. Or YOU'RE here."
"Why?" Miles whispers. "Why do you need to..." He trails off, his eyes not moving from the barrel of the gun. "Why do you have to kill me?" Miles blinks a few stray tears away. "I thought Shield was good."
"Hm. You see, I'm not Shield." Ward tells him, grinning at Miles' reaction as he puts the pieces together.
"Wha-
BANG!!
Miles eyes don't even widen from the pain, he's already dead.
His body goes limp, and collapses to the ground, at Ward's feet.
Ward grimaces, kicking Miles' hand away from his foot, while sticking the gun back in its holster.
"Hail Hydra." He mutters before walking away.

RIP Miles Lydon
