Episode 4
They Belong to Me
Chapter 9
Mac was growing concerned by the minute, she got up and got dressed, then went down the hall to the girl's nursery. Both girls were sound asleep in their cribs. Mac didn't know what to do next, part of her wanted to charge out and find Harm and whoever else was outside, the other part wanted her to stay behind and protect her girls. Mac turned toward the door, when a shot rang through the air.
"Oh my gosh Harm!" Mac cried, racing out the front door. She turned around the corner to find Harm on the ground clutching his waist, and Brumby with a gun trained on him.
"Stay right there Sarah, I don't want to hurt you, I just want to take care of him." Brumby assured.
"Like heck you will!" Mac knelt by Harm taking his head and cradling it in her lap. "What's gotten in to you! I've told you already you were a mistake, I love Harm, and I'm married to him. Can't you accept that?" Mac regretted the words once they slipped from her mouth, after all it was Brumby with the gun on them.
"You don't mean it Sarah, we belong together, you belong to me." Brumby was clearly in denial. Mac stood extending her hand to accept the gun.
"Please Mic give me the gun, you don't want to do this." Mac pleaded, Brumby's eye's shifted from her, and then down to Harm.
"Sarah you don't know how much I love you." Mic paused, Harm groaned rolling onto his side. "I'll make you a deal." Sarah looked up at him expectantly. "If you agree to divorce Harm…I won't kill him or your children." Mac's stomach did a flip-flop, Mic was willing to kill her children just so he could have her?
"My girls haven't done anything to you." She stammered.
"I'm afraid it's the only way Sarah."
"No it's not." Harm hissed, Mac and Brumby looked down on him, in time to see him take aim and open fire. Mic feel back clutching his chest, his gun went flying, Mac scrambled for his weapon. Sirens wailed in the distance, Mac clicked on the safety and rushed over to Harm's side.
"Mac." Mac placed her hand over his gunshot wound. Tears slid down her cheek.
"I'm here." She assured.
"Tell the girls I love them." Mac shook her head no.
"No Harm you're going to tell them." An ambulance and several police cars came screeching to a halt in front of the Rabb's residence. Paramedics rushed to Harm's and Brumby's side prepping them for the trip to the hospital. A cop pulled Mac up as they walked her back to the house.
"Will he be alright?" Mac asked one of the paramedics who were tending to Harm.
"I can't say." The paramedic responded in an almost apologetic tone. Another cop tapped Mac on the shoulder.
"Ma'am we would like to ask you a couple of questions is there anybody you want to be here with you?" Mac nodded after placing a call to the Admiral and Harriet, she went back to the nursery to check on the girls. A cop followed her and looked on sympathetically as Mac picked up a whimpering Natalie.
"I promise ma'am as soon as were done questioning you can go be with your husband."
Two hours later
After forty minutes of questioning, Mac left the twins in Harriet's car, and with the admiral left for the hospital. For the next hour and twenty minutes Mac paced the waiting room, as the admiral frequently checked in with the nurse at the desk.
"Colonel Rabb?" A doctor questioned stepping out from the operating room. Mac rushed over the admiral joined her at her side.
"I'm Colonel Rabb this is my and my husband's CO Admiral Chegwidden." The doctor nodded in acknowledgment. "How is he?"
"Commander Rabb has lost a lot of blood, we were able to remove the bullet and stabilize him, but he's still in critical condition. I can't even say for sure that he will make it through the night we can only wait and see." Mac nodded in understanding, at the same time her head was whirling with information.
"What about Mic Brumby?" The doctor shook his head.
"We did all we could I'm sorry to say he didn't survive." Mac's leg shook violently, the doctor and Admiral assisted her to a near by seat.
"When can I see my husband?"
"Soon were moving him to ICU, I'll send a nurse out as soon as you can see him." Mac nodded, and the admiral thanked the doctor, he then returned to the operating room.
"Sir what if he doesn't make it, what if he doesn't make it through the night? I can't raise the twins alone?" Admiral Chegwidden took Mac's hands within his.
"Don't you dare talk like that, and you're not alone you have me, you have Rabb's family, the Roberts, and Chloe, you have a lot of people who care about don't fool yourself." With that Mac broke into tears.
"I'm so scared, please God let him get through the night." She cried on the admiral's shoulder.
"Amen." AJ finished.
