Disclaimer in chapter 1. I just realized I might not have the right ranks for Harm and Mac, if I don't could someone please tell me minor details tend to slip my mind-thanks!
Episode 3
Hide and Seek
Chapter 11
"Jenkins no!!" Harm snapped. The admiral flung himself between Mac and Jenkins. Jenkins fired and the bullet pierced the admiral right through the shoulder. The two other occupants in the diner screamed. Harm ran forward and began to struggle for control with Lt. Jenkins, Lt. Singer joined in, kneeing Harm in the stomach. Harm was fortunate enough to continue standing his ground.
The two men who were in the car that pulled up witnessed the struggle in the diner.
"What do you think is going on?" Asked the driver.
"I don't know let's go see." Suggested the passenger with and Australian accent. The struggle continued within the diner, Mac placed her girls under the bench, who were screaming and crying and took the admiral in her arms, his blood staining her outfit. The two men flew pass Mac and Chegwiggen and raced to assist Harm. The driver took Singer aside and punched her in the nose, while the other man took Jenkins by his collar and thrust him up against the wall. Allowing Harm a quick moment to catch his breath before he plunged his fist into the Jenkin's stomach. Singer collapsed to the floor clutching her nose. After repeated blows Jenkin's slumped to the floor.
"HARM STOP!" Mac cried out as Harm continued to kick him. The man who assisted Harm pulled Harm back that's when Mac realized whom the good samaritans were.
"Brumby? Tiner?" She stammered all came still. For a moment no one said a word, until a moan slipped through the admiral's lips.
"No time for talk we got to get the admiral to a hospital." Harm ordered.
At the hospital
Harm and Mac sat cradling their twin daughters, Brumby stood off on the other side of the room, studying the couple. Tiner sat in a chair flipping through on old issue of People.
"He saved my life, and our babies lives to…if he didn't take that bullet…" Mac cried. Harm shifted Natalie to his other arm and wrapped his free arm around Mac.
"Shush, don't concentrate on that right now, it's going to be alright." He whispered reassuring words into her ears, while under the constant glare of Brumby.
Brumby couldn't take the fact that Mac would ever marry Harm, sure when his plane crashed in the ocean she expressed concern, but the thought never crossed him that they would marry. Never in his wildest dreams did he ever imagine Harm settling down and marrying let alone having children. Natalie and Lucy should have been his children…Mac should have been his wife….
"Commander Rabb?" Everyone in the waiting room stood, as the doctor operating on Admiral Chegwiggen entered.
"How is he?" Mac asked, concern growing in his voice.
"Admiral Chegwiggen lost a lot of blood, the bullet was lodged right above his shoulder blade, but we were able to remove it. He's going to be fine, he just needs his rest right now." The doctor briefed.
"Thank God." Mac sat down in relief, a smile spread across Tiner and Harm's face, Brumby just stood their grateful, but at the same time having his own personal conflict.
"When can we see him?" Tiner asked.
"Not now, he's sleeping, come back in the morning when he will be rested.
"Thank you, Come on Mac we all need some rest." Harm suggested, as he and Mac got up, gathered their belongings and left, Tiner followed.
Mac should be my wife, Natalie and Lucy should be my children…not Harm's mine." Brumby repeated in his head as he to made his way out of the hospital.
What do y'all think? This is where I would say "The End" but I think that's just a little, I don't, something. That's the end for this episode I already got an idea for the next thanks for the reviews!!
