The song used here is Fleetwood Mac, "Everywhere." I hope you guys like it and special thanks to Lynne ^_^.
Harm was sitting in his office trying to concentrate on his latest case. A petty officer that had been caught with an ounce of cocaine. He was having a hard time trying to concentrate on anything lately. Mac was still missing. All Webb kept saying was be hopeful because no news was good news. He tried to believe it but it was hard. After each day that passed it made it more and more unlikely she would come home. But like his grandmother had told him he had to be strong, he couldn't give up on her. The worst were the nights. At least at the office he was around other people and there were ways he could distract himself. At home he was met by a lonely apartment and silence. He was constantly having this nightmare that Webb had told him they had found where she had been taken Harm had insisted he be on the recovery team. As they went into the building he kept calling her name but she never answered. He looked everywhere but found nothing. That's when Webb said it was over she wasn't there they had to go. Harm could still feel her presence but no matter how loud he called her name and how long he searched he never found her.
Can you hear me calling
Out your name
You know that I'm falling
And I don't know what to say
I'll speak a little louder
I'll even shout
Can you hear me calling
Out your name
So now he was trying his best to distract himself or at least get some work done. He knew that Mac would scold him for worrying so much and not getting any work done. So he was just about finished writing his closing remarks when he heard a scream. He looked out his office window and saw Harriet fall to the floor. Harm quickly ran out of his office to see if she was okay.
"Harriet what's wrong?" Bud asked as he helped his wife stand.
Tears ran down Harriet face as she pointed to the TV monitors. There on ZNN was a report on some POWs that had been taken. Their captors had taken video footage of them and had showed it on Iraqi Television.
Bud gasped as he saw what his wife was looking at.
"Harriet, are you okay?" Harm asked once he reached her side. He saw that she was crying and looked up when she pointed to the TV screens. Harm's faced turned white. There was his Mac in front of the camera bruised and bleeding. She was almost unrecognizable.
The Admiral who had heard Harriet's screams came out to see what's going on.
"Will someone tell me what's going on?" he barked.
No one said a word Bud just pointed towards the TV.
The Admiral looked at what Bud was pointing at and his face fell.
At that moment Harm's fist connect with part of the wall leaving a small dent. The Admiral could see the fury in Harm's eyes.
"Rabb my office now," the Admiral knew what Harm would most likely want to do but Harm needed to be level headed.
"Harm I know you're upset but you have to be level headed. I'm pretty sure I know what you'd like to do to a certain spook right about now, trust me I'd love to the same thing but that won't solve anything."
"With all do respect sir you have no idea how I'm feeling and anything Webb gets he surely deserves," Harm looking straight ahead never wavering.
"Harm I can't stop you even if I tried so I'm only going to say be careful, dismissed."
Harm grabbed his keys and his cover and raced down to his car. He had a visit to pay to a dear Clayton Webb. Harm did realize that the Admiral was right. He had to stay focused for Mac. He had to keep it together so they could find her and bring her home.
Something's happening,
Happening to me
My friends say I'm acting peculiarly
Can you hear me calling
Out your name
You know that I'm falling
And I don't know what to say
Can you hear me calling
Out your name
Harm reached Langley in record time. He was slightly surprised he hadn't been pulled over for speeding. Harm made his way through the security checkpoints and had finally reached Webb's office when his secretary tried to stop him. Harm just brushed her aside as he stormed into Webb's office.
Webb, who was sitting at his desk looking over a file, wasn't too surprised to see Harm glaring down at him. He knew that Rabb would be in his office sooner or later. He just preferred later.
"Look Rabb we know about the tape. Our intel has been processing it for a couple of days and we think we might have narrowed down their location."
"A couple days? You mean you've known about this and you didn't tell me?" At that moment all the restraint Harm possessed suddenly vanished. He ran behind Webb's desk and yanked him out of the chair.
"Listen Clay, because of you Mac's out there with a face beaten so badly it's almost unrecognizable. Because your people are always too good to waist on a mission, and you had to take her, she's now fighting for her life. So for those reasons I'm going over there. NO you're sending me over there with your guys. And I'm gonna be there when they find her. Because if I lose her and the baby then I've lost everything and there is no point in living and I will make sure you know just how distraught I'm feeling. Got it?"
Webb had seen Harm angry before but never like this. Harm wasn't just angry he was a man at the end of his rope. Webb truly believed Rabb when he said he would have nothing left to live for if he lost them.
"I'm sending some guys over there tonight. They'll be traveling with a seal team. They leave at 1900 from Andrews. Make sure you're there, and I'll make sure you go."
So next chapter will be the search for Mac. Good bad? Tell me what you guys think.
