A/N This is just a fast filler update while I finish up the next few chapters...
One hour later
Harm and Mac's Apartment
North of Union Station
After hanging up with Webb, both of them went and changed clothes, Mac fed and changed Tommy. She had just finished when they hard the knocking on the door. "I'll get it sweetheart." Mac smiled and watched as Harm went over to the door opening it up. Webb walked in. He didn't waste anytime.
"Look Rabb, I'm going to cut right to the chase. Clark Palmer is loose..." Before Webb could say another word, Harm interrupted him.
"WHAT? How could you let this happen?"
"He managed to escape custody."
Mac heard everything and came into the living room walking over to Harm and Webb. "What does this mean?" Harm wrapped his arm around her waist.
Webb glanced over at Mac,"Mac I wasn't aware that you would be here?" Before Mac could answer Tommy's cry's echoed thru the apartment. "I'll get him Harm."
"Okay sweetheart." Mac headed back up to the bedroom. Harm turned his full attention back over to Webb. "Now I want details Webb, how the hell did you guys allow Palmer to escape custody?"
Webb was now distracted by the the fact that Mac and a baby where in Harm's apartment. "Rabb is there something going on here I need to know about?"
"What you need to do is tell me how the hell you and The CIA let Palmer escape?"
Webb kept looking off towards Harm's bedroom. "Level with me Rabb, why is Mac here?"
"You. first, you came in here telling me Palmer Is on the loose. I want answers!!!"
"He broke free when he was being moved to a maximum security prison. Somehow he managed to overpower the guards and stir the van off the road."
Mac walked back down with Tommy just as Webb finished the last part. She went straight over to Harm. Harm looked over at his wife and son. He knew now he had to do everything in his power to protect them, keep them safe from a mad man. Webb glanced over at Mac than back to Harm. "Rabb what's going on here? I need you to level with me."
"Level with you? Like you've leveled with me about Palmer? This is the second time he's escaped while in your custody."
"Look Rabb I've told you all I know right now."
"Why don't I believe you."
"Harm, I don't think he lying this time. After all he came here to tell you in person." Mac shifted Tommy to her shoulder, patting him on his back.
Harm knew Mac was right, but that still did very little to ease his mind. Last time Palmer got free, he went after Harm. Who was to say he wouldn't do it again. Only now he has Mac and Tommy to protect.
Webb spoke back up, "Rabb I'm going to place a couple of agents out front of the building. Is there anything else I need to know?"
Harm and Mac looked at each other. "Just make sure he never gets close to Sarah and Tommy. I will not have him try and kill my wife and son. And you had better find him before I do, or you'll be taking him back in a body bag."
"Wife and son.? When did this happen?"
"You don't need to know that. Just know that I will protect what's mine."
"Fine, just don't do anything stupid Rabb." Webb headed for the door. He walked out and headed out of the building. After he reached the outside, he pulled off the mask. Palmer smiled. "I've got you Rabb.."
Meanwhile back upstairs. Harm took his family in his arms. "Baby I'm not going to let anyone hurt the three of you."
"I know that. But you need to take care of yourself too. We need you as much as you need us."
"I need the three of you more. I can't and will not loose any of you. I'll kill Palmer myself if I have to."
Mac looked at the stone cold face of her husband. Her normally sweet loving husband. She knew he was dead serous. " Maybe it will not come to that Harm. For now we should trust Webb."
Harm knew Mac was right for the time being . But that still did little to ease his mind.
Across town in a small shed.
Palmer opened the door and walked over to Webb, He started to circle around him. Than he leaned down to his ear, grabbing his hair and pulling his head backwards. He placed his lips next to his ear.
"You paid a visit to Rabb tonight. He's not happy that you let me escape. Oh and guess who is with him? Mac the real one I'm after. Oh and it gets better. She's married to Rabb, and they have a tiny little baby. It will mags killing her and that baby all the more fun. Especially when you do it. Rabb Will nuts and then kill you. Bingo I will have won Rabb will go to jail and you'll be dead. And I'll be free."
