Grant Ward - Prey

Part 9

Hunters pov:

I was going to kill him. I was going to find him and make him suffer for the pain he's putting my sister through. I didn't know whether they were torturing her or brainwashing her, it's the same thing really. Well, it must be torture if she had to stay with Ward.

I punched the wall in front of me, letting some anger out which soon came back. How could I let him just take her? The only family I have left!

"Hunter, calm down" Bobbi whispered, putting her hand on me trying to calm me down but I shook it off.

"How can I? He has Jess. God knows what he's doing to her" I looked at her sadly. "We need to get her back now"

"I know. We're doing all we can but you lashing out and being reckless doesn't help" Bobbi explained, pulling me down onto the locker room bench.  "We will find her and I'll even let you kill him yourself" She smiled softly which seemed to calm me down. Her smile was beautiful, it always made me get butterflies. "But you need to let me and Mack find him, lure him out first. We need to make sure she's away from the fight before you go in"

"What if she's dead, Bobbi?" I tried to keep my voice strong, I didn't want her to see me weak.

"Ward would've let us known by now. He's keeping her for leverage" She sighed softly and stood up. "I'm going to speak to Coulson, see if we have anymore leads. Promise me you won't do anything stupid" She gave me puppy eyes and I smiled softly at her nodding. She started walking off and my phone buzzed in my pocket. I took it out, hoping somehow Jess got free and decided to reach out to me...But she didn't even have my number. I never kept in contact and I always changed my phone. I was a terrible brother to her and a terrible son to my parents. I had to be to protect them though whether they understood that or not.

I looked at my phone to see a blocked number with an attachment in a text. I opened the attachment and as soon as I see the picture, I dropped the phone.

Jess was crying, she was a wreck and Ward stood there, looking at the camera smiling. The message read 'The last time you see your sister is how you left her'

Anger built up inside me. So much anger that I couldn't control it. I started lashing out, smashing the lockers around me with my Fists until I drew blood. I shouted, I punched and I even cried out of rage.

"Hunter!?" Daisy ran in trying to push me away and to sit me down but I lashed out again and pushed her away. She stared at me horrified until she raised her hands at me, the force pushing me back and pinning me to the wall.

"He's hurting her!" I shouted at Daisy, trying to struggle out of the hold she had on me. Her powers were to strong though. 

"Hunter calm down! We don't know that yet-"

"Look at my phone!" I screamed at her making her flinch. She slowly stopped her powers, letting me crash to the floor before she picked up my phone and gasped at the picture.

"We need to show Coulson. We need to try and track it..."

"He's not stupid Daisy" I got up taking the phone. "He wouldn't lead us right to him" I Darent look at the picture again. I didn't want to see my little sister crying whilst he's standing there, smug and proud.

"We still need to show Coulson. He can help" Daisy explained and I nodded. If anyone could get us near Ward it would be Coulson.

Daisy held the phone as we ran to Coulsons office, passing a confused Mack on the way but he soon ran with us.

We barged into the office where Coulson and Bobbi stood, they both turned in shock as Daisy handed Coulson the phone.

"He's killed her" I blurted out. "We need to find him now" I said trying to control my voice. Coulson examined the phone and shook his head confused.

"This doesn't make any sense" Coulson explained. "Jessica is the only leverage he has. He wouldn't just kill her"

"He did it to get revenge. To get back at me for nearly killing him"

"Ward's smart. This doesn't mean she's dead it means he's trying to break us apart. He wants you to be reckless, he wants us all to panic and go after him" He put the phone down on the table. 

"He's trying to lure us out" Mack spoke up. "We're not going to give him what he wants. If he wants us, he's going to have to come out and get us"

"And how the hell do we make him do that?" I frowned, hoping there would be a simple answer. I looked at Coulson who was staring into space, smiling slightly as we waited in anticipation.

"We give him exactly what he wants"
