Chapter 4

No one stood up or said anything to the doctor, instead three of them sat there frozen while the other two were standing there like a pair of statues. The doctor's facial expression became kind of concerned, thinking he had the wrong group of people, he started to turn around when Jack finally spoke up.

"Sorry Doc, we are their family. How are they?"

Jack's voice was both worried and scared as he asked the doctor, the question that the whole group was thinking and dying and dreading the answer to.

The doctor turned back around to face them, his face remained unchanged from what it was before they all went silent.

"I'm Doctor Adams, I was the surgeon who worked on Miss Davis, she took a bullet to her stomach as well as her right shoulder and left thigh. The bullet that hit her shoulder was through and through but broke her collarbone. We managed to fix it by placing pins to keep it in place while it heals, she will have it in a sling for a couple of weeks but with some Physical Therapy, she should have full use of it.

As for the stomach, she had a lot of bleeding and it took a while to get it under control, but we stopped it and was able to patch her up. Miss Davis was very lucky there wasn't any serious damage to her organs, she was in a lot of pain when she regained consciousness and would make a full recovery. The next 24 hours are going to be critical, so we will be watching her carefully for any signs of infection or anything else that might occur."

The doctor kept his voice as calm and comforting as he could, though he knew there was still a long way to go before she would make a full recovery.

"Does that mean that you guys are expecting something to go wrong with her recovery? What about Macgyver?"

Jack's voice was full of concern when the doctor had only talked about Riley, the one thing that was going through his head was that the person he was like his brother might be dead. Not knowing what was going on with this little brother, was making Jack more and more nervous which was making it hard for him to stand in one place. It was the second time that Desi had seen Jack act so nervous, the first time was when he asked her to protect Mac and now she was seeing it again.

Desi moved over to the former delta force and placed a hand on his shoulder, she was about to give Jack some comforting words when the doctor spoke up.

"I'm sorry sir, but I am not on the team that is taking care of but I am sure someone will come and update you on his condition soon."

The Doctor kept his voice as calm and comforting as possible after he saw Matty nod her head he walked out to do his rounds. Though he felt bad for him there was nothing he could do for them about , however, he hoped that he would be able to give them news on Miss Davis.

Once the Doctor had left Desi took a deep breath, then in a very soft tone, she spoke to Jack in hopes to give him some hope about Mac making it.

"Jack, Mac is a tough guy and after everything that he had been through so far in his life, I have hope that he will survive this. He will have you and us at his and Riley's side every step of their recovery, Jack we have to have faith that they will be alright."

Once Desi said that Jack didn't speak another word, instead, he placed a hand on top of Desi's before giving his head a nod.

Then alongside Desi they took a seat next to Matty, waiting desperately for news that Mac would be alright. A half an hour after they all got the news about Riley now none of them dared to move, scared that if one of them went to get coffee they would miss any news about Mac. The sound of someone's phone starting to ring caused everyone to jump, each one of them pulled out their phone to see whose phone was ringing. One by one each of them shook their heads, then all eyes turned to Matty who was the last one of them to pull their phones out.

Matty hit the answer button and placed it up against her right ear, seeing that all eyes were on her as she picked up their phone.

"What do you get for me?"

While she sat there waiting for a reply to what she had spoken in a boss like voice, her eyes however showed how worried she was for her two agents. Meanwhile, everyone's eyes turned to Matty hoping she had some news, on the people that had almost killed two of their family members.

"Director Webber, we went through the CCTV footage like you asked us to and you were right someone was following both and Miss Davis. We have so far gone back two weeks, and the same two cars can be seen in the video following them home and to work."

Matty sat there feeling that everyone's eyes never left her, hearing that for two weeks that her two best agents had been followed made her a bit shocked. She knew that Mac would have known better and been more careful to ensure not to be followed, while Matty knew that Riley was new to being an agent she was trained. So she started to wonder who might have been good enough to tail them, it was also alarming making her wonder if any of her people might be in danger. Feeling a bit worried about her agents, Matty redialed the Phonix's tech department wanting to at least ease a few bit of her fears.

"Director Webber is there something you need?"

The young woman who picked up was not the same that she had to earlier, Matty knew that the voice belonged to the new hire Erin Snips. Matty had hired her only three weeks ago, so far hiring Erin was a good choice she had managed to keep up with their quick phase which was good. Thinking for a moment Matty sat there scanning the room, she noticed that no one's eyes were on her anymore. Jack was more focused on calming a very upset Bozer, who was beside himself with worry about his best friend and Riley. Matty took one glance more, and when she was sure no one was looking she turned back to the phone and answered in a normal tone.

"I need you to check and see if any other of our agents might have been followed, like agents Macgyver and Davis." Her voice got more serious, wanting then to know how important it is to do as she asked. "I need to know if we have security risk or not, I want everyone on this right now."

With that said Matty hung up the phone, checking once again on her people, see that none of them paid any attention to what she had said. Matty was glad since all their thoughts needed to be on Mac and Riley, the person she should call was oversight since Mac was his son. Last Matty had heard Mac and James hadn't been on speaking terms since Mason killed Charlie as revenge for Oversights part in the other man's son dying. Matty wasn't sure if she should inform oversight of his son being in the hospital if Mac would even want him by his bedside when he woke up.

Matty became immersed in her mind as she debated what she was going to do, she was so deep in thought she didn't even mind her surroundings. It wasn't until she felt a strong hand on her left shoulder, did she realize that there was someone sitting beside her. Her eyes quickly darted to the chair beside her, soon she locked eyes with Jack who had a very worried expression on his face.

"I was going to get some coffee. Jack took a sharp intake of air, before getting the strength to ask his question. "I did come over to ask if you wanted some, now I want to know how you are holding up and if you need anything."

Jack's voice was a caring tone, which was a change since normally he would be making stupid jokes so it was nice to see him not joking or making Bruce Wills quotes. Matty was unsure how to answer his question about how she was doing since he herself was not sure how she was doing. Plus Matty was trying hard to keep it together in front of Jack and Bozer, mostly it was for Bozer's sake. She was worried that if Bozer noticed how worried Matty truly was he might think something else is wrong and be more worried.

Matty shook her head before replying to Jack in a very low tone so that the others couldn't hear what she was about to say. "I'm holding it together if that what you mean." Her eyes darted to Bozer who was being hugged by Leanna, once she was sure they weren't listening to them Matty turned her attention back at Jack. "I'm alright Jack, How is Bozer holding up?"

Jack didn't answer her but the look on his face told Matty that he didn't believe one word that she had just said. Not that Matty cared if Jack thought she was lying but it was the face she had to keep in front of her agents so that way they had someone to come to if they needed help. Jack opened his mouth to speak in protest once the sound out feet could be heard he stopped himself. Instead, his eyes quickly move towards the waiting room's door along with everyone else's eyes who eagerly waited for news.

Everyone held their breaths as the footsteps got closer and closer to the room than they stopped and when no one enter they sat there disappointed.

Then a young man who looked no older than Mac entered the room wearing blue scrubs and a hair net that just barely hid his short brown hair. The young surgeon took a glance around the room before gathering his thoughts and speaking in a comforting voice.

"Family of Angus MacGyver?" Everyone darting towards him making the doctor to take a step back, soon got himself straight knowing the news will be hard for the family of the man he worked to save.

"I'm Doctor Austin. I was one of the surgeons who worked on. He suffered multiple gunshot wounds to his upper chest, stomach and right side of his head."

Leanna threw her hands over her mouth gasping when she heard the doctor say what his wounds were. The words gunshot wound to Mac's head was the one thing that was echoing through their minds, making them think of the worse that would happen.

"We managed to stop the bleeding, his spleen was damaged severely and we got all but one of the bullets out. The one we couldn't get out is sitting close to his spine by his T12, which if we're not careful and we tried to remove it can cause him to be paralyzed from the waist down. To be safe we are placing him in a back brace so we can keep him from moving too much, we won't know how much feeling he has in his legs until he wakes up."

Everyone stood there in shock of the news that not only did Mac suffer a wound to the head, that there was a slight chance he could become paralyzed. The thought of Mac not being able to walk or run ever again, for Bozer hearing that was hitting him the hardest since they being running since they were kids. No one spoke instead they stood there leaving the room deadly quiet until Jack spoke up asking the most important question.

"How bad is the gunshot wound to the head Doc? Will he be alright?"

All eyes went to Jack before turning back to Doctor Austin, who had a look that told them that there was something he wasn't telling them.

As they waited for the doctor to tell them what he was hiding, a woman wearing a nurse's uniform was also eagerly waiting for what was about to be said. While she waited she started to text one word to an unknown number, that word was Alive and then she pressed send.

Her attention returned to the room when she heard Doctor Austin clear his throat, and in a nervous tone said.

"Well, I'm afraid I have bad news regrating that."
