"KC you stay here as well till we return"

"Yes sir, i hope MacGyver will be ok"

"Same here" they got back into the HRIB since Hammersley already started heading towards the island.

"Who is MacGyver you must care about him" the skipper said

"Her, chief petty officer June Roff, the youngest chief petty officer in australia history"

"How old is she"

"Twenty eight sir and she a hero"

"bloody hell she must of made navy history number of times"

"Yes sir she has"

At the beach Henry saw them so he lifted his gun when Bird saw him and ran and jumped onto his back causing the gun to go off as he hit the ground with her on top of him. She manages to put one cuff on his wrist when he knocks her off him. She quickly picked up the gun and reloaded it and pointed it at him. MacGyyer who was conscious turn to see what was happening when Ro Dutchy and two dads were going to run

"Stop, let her do this," MacGyver said.

They watch what happens. "Come on i know you won't shoot me, look at you, your shaking like a leaf"

She lowered the gun, then she saw him pull out a gun from the back of his pants when she raised her gun and fired it causing the guy to collapse on the ground in pain. Dutchy ran over to her as she stepped forward, kicking the hand gun away.

"Look can be deceiving"

"You shot me what are you"

"Navy and your under a rest for the murder of five people"

"bird" she turns to dutchty, he wrapped his arm around her shoulder and took the gun from her other hand

"dutchy bird" Two dads said point out to sea.

They saw it was Hammersley and saw the HRIB being lowered into the sea. When the HRIB landed on the beach Swain got out and ran over to where MacGyver is while Mike walked over to where Dutchy and Bird is.

"The other brother tied up and in land sir" Bird siad

"Are you ok bird"

"She shot him in self defence sir, she save all of us"

"Can't wait to find out what happened here in the past twenty four hours"

"it was hell sir" bird said then they heard

"It will be here in five minutes Swain"

"copy that X"

Mike pulls the guy to his feet while crew members pick up the gun then they walk over to where swain is working on MacGyver.

"do the best you can"

"i am sir, NAVCOM should contact Jim"

"X contact NAVCOM and ask them to notifided Jim about MacGyver"

"Yes sir"

When the helicopter showed up they lowered the basket where Swain and charge lifted the stretcher and put it in the basket then they watched as it raised up. Every one saluted as the helicopter headed back to Cairns.

"Right let's head back to Hammersley"

"sir can two dads and I go and get the other brother"

"ok take a gun with you, charge you go with them"

"Yes sir" they went and got the brother

"Sir there four bodies we need to get" Mike turn to dutchy

"four"

"Yes sir, bird knows where three of them are"

"ok thanks for telling me. I guess this is one survival training you didn't expect"

"no sir, Bird will need counseling when we return, she has been through a lot in the past twenty four hours"

"You all have"

Jim was talking to Madeline Cruise when they were walking out of her office. "Captain Roff"

"Yes midshipmen"

"Message from Hammersley sir, it your wife, she has been shot and medivac to barry general as we speak, her condition is critical"

"thanks midshipmen" they saluted then the midshipmen return back to the ballpen

"sorry Madeline, i have to go"

"Look captain this mission is important"

"all due respect Ms Cruise, right now my wife is import as you just heard" then he turn and walk away

"I'll be talking to your surpearies about this captain" she yelled out to him.

When Jim arrived at the hospital he went to find out what was happening with june when the doctor saw him "Captain Roff"

"How is June"

"She going into surgery what do you know"

"all I knew was that she was shot and medivac to her and her condition is serious"

"she was shot by a crossbow in the leg, at some point of movement the arrow moved and hit her artery. She been rush into surgery as we speak, we are going to do everything we can for your wife captain"

"what a crossbow arrow i thought it was a bullet"

"no it was an arrow from a crossbow"

"Thanks for telling me, doctor" He walked over and sat down in a chair pulling out his phone and called his parents to tell them that June had been shot.

Two hours later, Jim saw his CO walk over to him with Madeline next to him with a not happy look on her face.

"Captain" Jim stood up and saluted which his CO did in return

"sir"

"Ms Cruise gave you a job to do, go and do it, that an order"

"Sir did MS Cruise tell you why i'm here sir"

"that your wife is in hospital, you can visit her when you return"

"all due respect sir i received a message from a midshipmen over two hours ago that my wife chief petty officer June Roff was shot and in serious condition, she was medivac here sir. I learned on my arrival she was shot in the leg by a crossbow which has a nick an artery. The doctors sent her straight into surgery."

"What, I wasn't told that" His CO said in shock

"Captain Roff" he turn to the surgeon

"Yes"

"A word please sir" Jim followed the doctor to where they could talk in private.

"How is she"

"It was touch and go. We lost her twice on the table" Jim broke down.

The doctor led him over to a chair and sat him down. Jim turned to his CO and shook his head then turned to the doctor. "Colonel, I need Captain Roff on this mission"

"Ms Cruise now isn't the time can't you see or are you blind. For now the captain is on leave" then he turns around and walks away.

Jim looked down shaking his head. "Captain… Jim" the doctor put his hand on Jim's shoulder.

"Your wife is a fighter" Jim turn to the doctor

"what"

"As i said before you broke down we had to revive her twice, she a true fighter, she is still in serious condition when she came in, she lost over two pint of blood but she will make a full recovery"

"she will"

"Yes"

"What about damage where the arrow went in"

"she was lucky it didn't serve nerves or tendons. She fit and healthy, but she will be on rest for a while before returning back to her sea duties"

"and her exercises"

"Like running, at least six weeks"

"Can i see her"

"sure" they stood up and walked down to where she was.

When Jim saw her. There was a heart monitor beeping, oxygen tube up her nose, two IV lines, one for blood and the other for fluid, he could see how pale she look. he walked over to the bed and picked up her hand as he sat down on a chair.

"She will be out of it for another couple of hours"

"thank you"

"I'll leave you alone with your wife" then he walked out the door and returned back to his work.

Later that afternoon Jim cell phone rang so he answer it "Jim Roff, Hello"

"jim it Mike Flynn"

"Mike, what happen to June"

"Dutchy will tell you in person we will be in port in half an hour. How is she"

"She lost over two pints of blood and…" He started to cry

"Jim what wrong mate"

"While in surgery she went flat line on them twice" Mike was shocked.

Kate saw the look on his face so she got up from her seat and stepped next to the captain chair and put her hand on his arm. He turned to her. He shook his head. "Jim are you still there"

"Yes"

"Is she…"

"Alive but still in critical condition. The doctors are concerned because she hasn't woken up since the surgery this morning"

"I'm sure her body just recovering like all the other times"

"But in all the other times she didn't go flat line Mike"

"that true, give her a chance we know what she like with surprises"

"Yes i know"

"Look Jim we will talk soon"

"OK Mike"

"Hang in there mate, we all here for you" then they hung up.

"Mike" Kate said He pick up the microphone and turn the PA system on

"Now here this captain is speaking. I've just spoken to Jim Roff. MacGyver is in critical condition, she flat line twice while in surgery. She lost over two pints of blood and she hasn't regained consciousness since surgery. That is all" then he put the microphone back in its spot after turning the PA off.

He turned to Kate and stood up and pulled her into his arms. He looks around the crew seeing their sad looks on their faces. Dutchy was hugging Bird as she started to cry.

When they dock the crew was shocked to see Jim on the wharf. Jim watches as five body bags are carried off Hammersley and put in the van. After Swain sorted out the paperwork he walked over to Jim.

"jim"

"Mate"

"any change"

"She woke up after I spoke to Mike. She said that bird did good. I ask her what happen, she said to ask Dutchy"

"It's good news that she woke up"

"Yes it is" then they saw Dutchy and Two dads walking two men off Hammersley just as the feds van showed up

"Is that them"

"Yeah. don't worry about those two, they going away for a very long time"

"the five bodies"

"Yeah like a turkey hunt with a rifle and crossbow. MacGyver would be proud of Bird, she shot the second guy when he was going to shoot her. MacGyver saw it happen before she lost consciousness. She hasn't been the same since the shooting"

"counciling"

"Captain recommended it. But the best counselor is MacGyver"

"June good at giving people advice"

"that she has" Dutchy and two dads handed the two men over to the fed.
