A loud alarm rang throughout the hallways of the building about 5 minutes into the interview. Ward covered his ears with his free hands trying to act surprised. ''What is that?'' He yelled over the alarm, staring at the shaken up man in front of him who was also covering his ears.
''I don't know, you stay here and I'll come back to interview you in about ten minutes.'' Malick said, getting up from his seat, ''Sorry for the inconvenience!'' He stood up and almost ran through the door.
''Alright.'' Ward whispered to himself and the alarm subsided, he knew Malick wouldn't come back soon since this was a security breach. He pulled out his phone and sent out a message to Daisy, informing that her plan has worked. He got up from the seat quietly and went out, a suited up man with a black uniform and a HYDRA badge stood at the side of the door.
''What are you doing?'' The man questioned, ''I'm pretty sure mister Malick told you to stay inside.'' He had the hard look on his face that told Ward not to mess with him or anything here. Ward couldn't believe that Malick had sent a guard up. HYDRA indeed was not joking around. ''I really need the bathroom.'' Ward lied, thinking of the quickest excuse.
The man rolled his eyes, ''This is a bad time to be wandering around, but follow me.'' He said and waved his hand, implying for Ward to follow him. It took Ward a couple of seconds to figure out what to do as he was following the man. He bit his lip and took action. If he really wanted to help out Daisy and find May, he needed to do this. Ward's arms quickly wrapped themselves around the man's neck, suspending him in a chokehold where he was slowly deprived of oxygen. The guard groaned as he tried to get away, but Ward's grip was simply too strong. The man slowly sunk to the ground. Unconscious.
Ward dragged the man back into Malick's office which was a couple of feet behind him.

''It worked!'' Daisy said with a smile once she received Ward's message. Fitz smiled and gave her a tap on the back.
''How long do you think I'd take for him to find May?'' Fitz questioned, suddenly thinking about how long he had.
Daisy shrugged, ''I don't know. But he does know that May is a high rank in HYDRA, so he'll need to be looking for her somewhere with more intense security. Probably in the higher levels of the building.'' She explained and then nodded, ''He knows it. He'll find her.''
Fitz nodded too, ''I hope so. We need to be getting out of the framework soon.''
Daisy agreed, ''I know.''
Their quiet discussion was suddenly interrupted when Simmons came running back. ''I saw a couple of HYDRA'S agents coming this way.'' She breathed out, ''Can they really trace the source of the hack so quickly?''
Daisy nodded with a serious face, ''It's only been a few minutes,'' She said whilst standing up to get ready to move, ''But I didn't think they could do it that fast. Well, I mean there's hundreds of agents working there, so maybe.''
Fitz gripped his pistol and Daisy closed her laptop, though the hack was still running in the background. ''Don't you think it's best if we leave it?'' Fitz asked, ''They can trace our location.'' He pointed at the laptop. Daisy shook her head, though she knew that Fitz was right. ''I have an idea. If too many of them come running after us then the laptop will be a perfect distraction.''
Fitzsimmons nodded, deciding to go thought with Daisy's plan. They all took off in the same direction, further from HYDRA'S building.

A couple of minutes later Ward came out of Malick's office with a HYDRA suit and badge. ''It was awkward enough undressing the guy.'' He whispered to himself and hid the guard's pistol beneath the jacket of the suit, ''I wonder what I'll have to do next.''
He got into the empty elevator and read the labels near the buttons which enabled him to pick the floor. ''Security...'' He read the label and instantly knew that it was where he needed to go. All the high ranking officials should be meeting there since someone trying to hack into their systems was serious.
The elevator stopped on that floor and he got off, allowing other HYDRA agents to step into the elevator. He nodded at them in attempts to seem natural. Ward walked around the massive floor, looking to every side and he did not manage to catch a glimpse of May. Just as Ward was about to turn into a corner he overheard an agent mentioning a familiar name.
''Yes mister Malick.'' The agent said, pressing the wired phone further into his ear as the sound of running guards make it almost impossible to hear, ''The meeting is being called in right now. Agent May, Agent Sampson and Agent Jackson will join you shortly.'' He said and waited a few seconds until he placed the phone down.
That meant May was still not in the meeting room. This was the perfect chance for Ward to find her. Ward approached the agent with a smooth walk, it almost looked as if he owned the place. ''Sorry,'' Ward said, grabbing the agents attention, ''Where could I find Agent May?''
The brown haired man shook his head, ''She does not have time right now. Agent May is supposed to be somewhere important.''
Ward nodded, gritting his teeth, ''I know. Mister Malick told me to pass a message to Agent May.''
The agent tilted up one of his brows, ''What massage? I could pass it on to her.''
''This is something mister Malick would prefer to be kept between them. '' Ward said, ''And if you respect his decision you will tell me where I can find her. He needs this message delivered to her before she enters the meeting room.''
The man nodded, suddenly seeming lost, ''Yes, of course I respect Mister Malick's decision! Agent May is just coming up into the meeting room, you can catch her there before she enters.'' He said, but the problem was, Ward did not know where the meeting room was.
''Thanks.'' He said with a firm nod and slowly started walking.
''Wrong way!'' The man yelled before he received another call, taking his mind off of Ward. Ward took the importunity and walked the opposite way, assuming it was the right one. There were less amount of people in that direction, which Ward considered a good think. With his eyes wide and the meeting room in sight, Ward hid behind a wall that lead to an empty corner. The meeting room was made out of glass, if Malick had spotted him, this would be the end.
Ward took a deep breath and peeked through the corner of the wall, the rate of his heart beat returned to normal when he saw that Malick was not looking towards his direction, meaning he hadn't seen him. ''What are you doing here?'' A womanly voice called from the side of him. Ward straightened himself and turned towards the voice. It was May. The exact same face he remembered seeing on that poster Mack showed him. The stone hard face. It was definitely May.
Yay, we've got May! Please review! Thank you for all the positivity guys! Thank you for reading.
I've never been more happy because I still can't get over the show getting renewed for a season 5! Though it has been moved to Friday and apparently won't air until 2018.
