Summary: Harm and Mac's lives are drastically changed when their daughter is kidnapped, but years later…will a case lead them back to her?
Author's Note: For those of you that are wondering what the heck I'm doing writing this fic with "Occupational Hazards" and "With You Always" not finished, actually leaving you hanging cause they each only have one more chapter to go. Well there IS a simple explanation, my grandmother died about a month ago and so I had to go back to New York for about a week and I continued to work on them while I was there and then I came back and ended up moving and training for a new job. And somewhere along the disk my JAG disk got damaged and it wouldn't let me open "Occupational Hazards", so I have to totally reconstruct the last chapter. And "With You Always" is 97% done and will be up soon! So now that I've drabbled on for forever…
Story Note: This story does take place in the future in 2004 AND in 2007 so be prepared! And yes once again I DO torture Mac and Harm and make their lives miserable…ummm oops?

"Rest now, Sarah…" Harm said soothingly. He smoothed her hair hoping to help calm her enough to sleep. She needed it. He knew she did. She had just been probably one of the most draining ordeals in a woman's life. Childbirth. Their first child. A daughter. A perfect new little life that belonged to them.
"I want to hold her…" Sarah MacKenzie-Rabb cried weakly. She hadn't been able to hold her daughter yet and she had delivered her more than two hours before. Her little girl had had trouble breathing and was immediately taken away. She hadn't even gotten to see her little face. Tears ran down her face.
"Sarah, the doctors say she'll be fine…they're taking care of her right now. Please just rest. God sent us a miracle, you're both fine and our little baby girl is going to be just fine."
"Then why can't I hold her?!"
"Because they're keeping a close eye on her and don't want her moved out of isolation just yet."
"But she's going to be okay?!" Sarah asked panicking. She wanted to see her baby so badly and the doctors had only talked to Harm.
"Sarah, you need to calm down, okay?"
Sarah nodded and tried to calm down, but something popped into her head. "Did you tell them her name?! What if she's scared and she doesn't know what's going on and wants me and-"
"Sarah, CALM down…she's going to be fine and I told them her name and wrote it down. Sydelle Saree Rabb," he recited. "They know, believe me they know."
"I…just...want…to…se-" Sarah Rabb feel asleep without finishing her sentence.

Admiral AJ Chegwidden stood by Sarah Rabb's bedside. He had come to see the baby and check on the new parents, but ended up relieving Harm so he could get coffee. He finally decided to take a seat. As he sat the power went out. "What the hell…" Chegwidden stood up and looked over at where he knew Sarah lay and remembered what she was hooked up to and knew she was in no danger since it looked like the machines had gone off. He shook her a bit, "Mac…Sarah…wake up."
"Admiral?" she asked through the darkness.
"The power went out…"
"Harm? Sydelle?! My baby!" Sarah said panicking and started to move trying to figure out how to get out of bed.
"Don't you dare move," Chegwidden warned. "Harm is getting coffee…and your baby is safe in the nursery."
The power returned.
Harm ran into the room and immediately looked Sarah over, "you okay?!"
Sarah smiled at him, "I think so…the admiral helped me from panicking…maybe I'm still afraid of the dark… Can you check on the baby?"
Harm nodded and walked out of his wife's hospital room and headed for the nursery viewing window.
Mac waited patiently as the admiral reassured her that everything was okay, that the power had just gone out, and that it wasn't a big deal.
After a few minutes Harm came running into Mac's room looking panicked.
"Harm?" Mac questioned suddenly feeling very worried.
"Commander?" Chedwiggen also questioned raising an eyebrow.
"The baby is missing," he said obviously panicked.
Mac just sat in her bed in total and complete shook trying to take in what her husband had said. 'Sydelle? TAKEN!?!'
"Explain," the admiral said calmly trying to keep the illusion of calmness.
"I went to check on Sydelle and she's gone! I asked the nurses and they don't have any idea! They said she was there before the blackout but don't know where she is…" Harm tried to explain as calm as possible.
"She's been kidnapped," Mac breathed in panic and yet still in shock.
Both Harm and Chedwiggen were relieved that she hadn't bolted, and started demanding that they find Sydelle and search everywhere. Even though that's what they both wanted to do.
"Commander, stay here with your wife. I'll take care of the situation."
"Thank you," Harm said sincerely and walked over to Mac pulling her into his arms.
