Summary: Unlike the episode of the same name, Margaret is actually abducted by the North Koreans. Will she make it back safe? And how does Hawkeye handle her disappearance? Very HM.
She was on her way back from a conference in Tokyo. She had spent three days listening to the most boring person in the world talk about 15 different ways to make a bed. Ok, so it wasn't quite that bad, but she would have rather skipped it even though she got to be away from the 4077th and all of the injured for a while. A young Sergeant by the name of Wilkins had met her in Seoul and was driving her back "home". As weird as it was, she was actually looking forward to returning, if not only to see a certain someone who she was becoming very close to in recent weeks. She smiled at the thought of him, but it quickly vanished when a loud pop was heard and the jeep began to swerve violently around the road. Sergeant Wilkins managed to stop the vehicle without crashing, and turned to her.
"Are you alright, Major?" She nodded and he exited the jeep. He looked at the front driver-side tire and shook his head. "I swear. I had to change the other tire on this side before I even picked you up. Well don't worry; I'll have us back on the road again in no time." He walked around to the back of the jeep and extracted the lug wrench and a jack. Margaret stepped out of the jeep and stretched. As she did so, the few drinks she had enjoyed while waiting in Seoul caught up with her and she definitely couldn't wait until they got back to use the bathroom.
"Sergeant? I'm going right over here to…take care of some business, I'll be right back." Wilkins simply nodded his reply, as he was struggling fiercely to remove the blown tire. She walked in a ways and found a large tree. She was in the process of trying to get her Class A's out of the way when a hand came from behind and clamped over her mouth. She tried to scream but another hand snaked around and cut off her air supply.
"No noise or he shoots," came the voice of a very obvious Korean. About that time she felt the cool steel of a rifle touch her temple. She raised her hands up and they were instantly grabbed and tied tightly behind her back. The two men then grabbed her arms and pulled her off through the woods.
A/N: Ok don't hate me because of the cliffhanger. This chapter is a teaser because I want to get a feel of what people think about this idea. I promise I'll try to make the next chapter longer. Let me know what you think!
