Biography[]
Ward's Initiation[]
- "Now take care of Buddy, and we'll get out of here. That's not a weakness, is it?"
"No, sir." - ―John Garrett and Grant Ward[src]
While Grant Ward was training in the wilderness of Wyoming, John Garrett left his dog Buddy in Ward's care, before leaving. Six months later, they got close to each other, as Buddy would always fetch a deer that Ward shot. As per HYDRA customs, Garrett ordered Ward to put Buddy down in order to teach him emotional detachment, so he could become a sleeper within S.H.I.E.L.D.. Ward was unable to do it while Buddy was looking at him, so he fired a shot in the sky, and while Buddy ran, Ward gunned him down with a sniper rifle.[1]
