It's Complete!!! I hope you enjoy!!! ^_^
Harm, Frank, Webb, Bud and AJ were all assembled in Harm's living room listening to the tape.
"How did they know you were here?" Harm asked curios. The only people that new his dad was visiting were people from the office.
"He even knew your name which was interesting," Webb said as they played the tape back for a third time.
Harm tried not to react when Mac came on the phone. Anybody could tell that she was in pain. He just hoped they got to her soon. Who knew how bad her injuries were.
Five minutes later Webb's cell phone rang.
"Webb. Did you look at it? Good. What did you find? Ok we're on are way. We'll meet you there," after hanging up the phone he turned to the group. "They traced the call and they have a location. They're heading over there now. I told them that we would meet them there. Let's go."
Harm, Bud AJ and Webb all piled into Harm's SUV. Frank said he would stay home with kids. On the way over to the warehouse, where the call had been traced to, they called the police and paramedics alerting them to the situation.
Mac was exhausted. She was also in immense pain. But she couldn't sleep. Whatever they had given her was keeping her awake but groggy. She heard the room's door open and she braced herself for what would come next. If it was the Lieutenant she could be sure to be getting some kind of beating. She was a Marine and she could do nothing about her situation. She hoped that Harm found her soon.
"Hello Colonel. And how are we today?" Mac didn't answer.
"Come on you can't be that bad. Anyway I just thought I'd let you know how things are going at home." She said with a wicked smile on her face. Mac was nauseous at the thought of the Lieutenant in her house.
"I must say you have three beautiful children. I usually don't like dealing with children but I think in this case I can make an exception. It's too bad they're never going to see their mother again. But I'm sure they will be fine. They don't even seem to miss you at all so I wouldn't worry. Isn't it funny? Your family thinks this was just a simple kidnapping. They think that after they have paid what ever ransom my friends think of that they will get you back." Soon both Women heard a loud bang and the yelling of voices.
'What's going on?' Cynthia thought.
"I'll be right back. Now don't go anywhere," she said laughing as she left the room.
Harm pulled his SUV in front of the warehouse and noticed that the Police and Paramedics where already there. One of the officers approached their group.
"We waited till you guys got here before we would go in."
With guns ready everyone headed inside. Everyone split up covering the two floors of the warehouse.
Lieutenant Jameson rushed back into the room where she was holding Mac.
"Well Colonel it seems that the Calvary has arrived. What a shame though. I'm sure they were hoping to find you alive. Barely clinging to life. They'd rush to the hospital and you'd be out in a week. I hate to ruin their plans," The Lieutenant said as she raised a gun to Mac's head.
Harm rushed into the next room only to see a gun pointed at Mac's head.
"No!!!" he cried, But before he could raise his gun a shot was fired. Harm rushed over only to see the Lieutenant fall to the floor with Bud standing over her, his gun still drawn.
Harm got to Mac and furiously tried to untie her ropes. Bud was helping. Once the ropes were off, Mac collapsed into Harm's arms. Harm could tell that she was in a lot of pain. He held her as the paramedics rushed in and put her on a gurney.
"We're rushing her over to Bethesda if you'd like to come with us Commander," the paramedics told Harm.
Once they got to the hospital harm was led to the waiting room as they brought Mac into one of the trauma rooms. Five minutes later Bud, Harriet and the Admiral met harm at the hospital. Webb had stayed behind to assist with the cleanup.
"Have you heard anything?" the Admiral asked.
"Nothing yet."
"Don't worry. She's a marine. She'll be fine," Harriet said as she gave him a reassuring hug. Harm smiled.
"If she was here that's exactly what she would say."
It was until an hour later that they heard something.
"Who is here for Colonel Mackenzie?"
"I'm her husband," Harm said as he rose to meet the doctor. "How's she doing?"
"She stable now. I have to say she sustained quite a few injuries. She has three broken ribs, a few bruised organs as well as multiple contusions to the chest and head area. She also has a broken right arm. With a lot rest she should be able to make a full recovery."
"What about the baby?" Harm asked concern and fear evident in his voice.
"The baby is fine for now. Because of all the trauma the Colonel suffered to her body there is still a high risk for a miscarriage later in the pregnancy. She's going to have rest for the next seven months. No work, no travel."
"When can we see her?"
"She's being moved to a room now. I'll have one of the nurses come and get you when she's ready."
"Thank You doctor," Harm said as he sat back down in somewhat of a daze. Soon anger seized him. How could anyone do this? He couldn't believe the Lieutenant could be this sick. No human being should be. That's when he remembered he hadn't even thanked Bud for what he did. Harm stood up and walked over to Bud.
"Bud I'm sorry I didn't thank you before. If you hadn't acted the way you did she might not be with us." Bud blushed.
"It was nothing sir."
"Commander. You can see your wife now," a nurse said as she led Harm to Mac's room.
As Harm entered the room, he let the tears flow. He had been holding them back for days. He pulled up a chair next to her bed. He picked up her and held it in his.
"Don't worry Sarah. You're safe now. I won't let anyone else hurt you."
Nine moths later…Mac was cooking breakfast when she felt a sharp stabbing pain her abdomen. She cried out as she fell to the floor.
"Ma'am are you alright?" Grace asked as she rushed into the kitchen.
"My water just broke."
"Ok let me get the Commander."
Harm came running down the stairs when heard Grace calling him.
"She just went into labor," Grace told him as he rushed into the kitchen. Harm made sure she was okay before he left to get the car. Once Mac was in the car Harm raced to hospital. After he had gotten her inside he realized he hadn't even called the office and the Admiral was probably fuming by now.
"Admiral Chegwidden's office," Tiner said as he answered the phone.
"Tiner it's Commander Rabb. I need to speak to the Admiral."
"Ok sir but he's in a bad mood. Where are you?"
"At the hospital just please put him on."
"Admiral Commander Rabb is on the line."
"Put him through," the Admiral said in a gruff voice.
"Admiral I'm at the hospital."
"Harm is everything ok?" The Admiral asked concerned.
"Yes sir, Mac went into labor."
"Harm giver her my best and let me know if I have a goddaughter or godson."
"Will do sir." Harm said as he hung and up the phone.
Five hours later Harm and Mac welcomed a six pound eight ounce Haley Elizabeth into the world.
"Everyone I have news," The Admiral said as he stepped out into the bullpen.
"It's a girl. Haley Elizabeth."
The bullpen erupted into a chorus of cheers.
