I hope you all enjoy. Don't worry, this will get more
interesting.)
Fade in. The Admiral was in a really good mood this week, witch made everyone in the office very happy. Well as about as happy as we could be; considering. Bud had returned to the states yesterday, and started rehab. His injury came as a shock to us all, and no one knew what to say to him. He seems so bitter and distant towards us all, that we just can't talk to him anymore. The Admiral is fighting tooth and nail to keep him on staff, if he chooses to stay, but he can't seem to make up his mind. Harriet has been the strong one for both of them, and has been working none stop, both at work and around the house to pay the bills. We all helped with the move, but didn't see much of Bud. His whole attitude seemed to be affecting Harriet the worst. My thoughts were broken by the knocking at my door.
"Enter."
(Tiner poked his head in my door.)
"Sir the Admiral would like to see you ASAP."
"Thanks Tiner."
When I got to the Admirals office, he seemed visibly upset. I stood at attention while he just stared out of the window. I was about to say something when he told me to sit down. When he finally sat down at his desk, he seemed paler then before, and I started to fear the worst. Was it Bud? Had something else happened to him? As far as I knew Sturgis and Mac were still in court.
"How is it going on the Trent case?"
I stared at him a minute, not sure if this look had anything to do with the espionage case I was prosecuting. Marcus Trent was caught selling information to the Russians; witch was used to help the Taliban.
"Good sir. He gave us the names of the buyers, and the head of the FBI has allowed me to join the raid.
"And just when were you going to ask my permission to go?"
He caught me off guard with tone he used.
"Well sir, with your permission I would like to help bring these people down."
"I talked to the head of the FBI this morning, and he did explain your interest in this case, and has even invited me to join. So I guess we are both going."
It surprised me that he wasn't going to chew me out for not telling me first, but with the mood he was in, I guess it is warranted.
"Yes sir."
"Dismissed."
"Sir-"
"I said dismissed, Commander!"
"Aye, aye sir!"
I snapped to, and halled ass out of his office. Once I was in the safety of my own office, I let out the breath, I had been holding in. I tried to concentrate on my paper work, but something about the way the Admiral was acting was nagging at me. I never even heard Mac come in.
"Don't stay that way to long; you'll get stuck in that position."
I turned to face her as she sat down.
"What's with the look Harm?"
"The Admiral."
"Ah, in the Admirals dog house again, huh?"
"No, it's not that. Something in the way he was acting is rubbing me the wrong way."
"What?"
"Something is wrong, but I just can't figure out what."
Meanwhile in the Admirals office.
Tiner buzzed in from his desk, and made the Admiral jump.
"What is it Tiner?"
"Sir there is a call from you from a Mr. Hicks. He said it was urgent."
"Put it through." He said trying to keep his voice. He hesitated picking the phone up, but he knew he had to.
"Where is my daughter Hicks?"
"Ah, I see you got that phone call from her last night. But shouldn't you be asking me what I want?"
The Admiral sighed. "What do you want?"
"Well you see, Marcus Trent is an old friend of mine, and I know your people are going to help bring his operation down tonight. There will be a lot of shooting, and I want you to kill Rabb for me. Do that and you daughter goes free."
"No!"
"Who is more important Admiral; Rabb or your daughter?"
The Admiral hesitated.
"The clock is ticking Admiral.I need an answer now."
