Chapter Two - A meal and a flight
11.56 Mac's Apartment Georgetown
After quickly packing for the trip Mac sat on her couch still wondering about what Sturgis had said to Harm before they left and daydreaming about the possibilities. She was so lost in thought that she didn't even here someone knocking on the door until they were literally pounding on it and shouting her name, quickly snapping out of her daydream and running to the door she threw it open and looks up at the worried face of Harm.
"Sorry Harm didn't hear you knocking I was in the bedroom packing"
"That's OK I just got a little worried that's all" He replies with a grin and then looks down at the stunning woman in front of him who is wearing a tan long sleeve shirt and matching skirt, in which she looks absolutely stunning
"Fine shall we go then there's a nice little deli around the corner that should serve some rabbit food for you"
"OK lets go I know you're probably starving" says Harm grabbing her case and moving off down the stairs to his waiting car.
Quickly locking up the apartment she follows the retreating form to the car
"Hey Harm your early are you feeling OK?" she says raising her hand to his forehead to check for a temperature
"I can be early when I want to be, I just don't want to be most of the time"
"Well you don't have a temperature so I guess is should believe you"
"Enough of that lets eat" he says as they pull up in the parking lot behind the deli. Jumping out to get her door for her and then following her inside with a hand pressed lightly into the small of her back.
Sitting down and ordering (Steak sandwich for Mac and salad for Harm) they begin to talk about the case and what may have happened as the food arrives finally when this is exhausted they turn to other topics other than work
"So Mac what were you and Sturgis talking about?"
"Oh nothing really" replies Mac hoping the Harm can't tell that she is lying
"OK well I think we should get out of here if we want to make the flight that is"
"Right yeah" says Mac dropping out of her reverie and stops staring at Harm
The pair just scrapes through check-in and hurry to gate where their flight has already started boarding. Sitting down Harm has the pleasure of a marine squeezing past to get to her seat which given the marine in question he found an enjoyable experience. As the takeoff and safety announcements were made the experience travellers that they were murmured the instructions to each other along with the flight attendant, laughing as they finished. When the climb-out was complete they put back their chairs and started to read, shortly after that a head hit Harm's shoulder, looking down at a sleeping Mac he smiled and wrapped and arm around her, pulling her in to lie on his chest, then asking for a blanket he covered both of them and slipped off to sleep himself.
Mac woke up a few hours later and found herself lying against Harm, she smiled at this, wrapped he arms around him, snuggled in closer and went back to sleep.
Riyadh Airport Saudi Arabia
As they were starting the approach to Riyadh the captain came back to get all of the seats put into the upright position, startled awake Harm and Mac smiled at each other and silently thought about how good it felt to be waking up together. When then they quickly move out to the baggage claim area to get their luggage and find the officer who is picking them up. The ensign is fairly easy to spot being as he is wearing his flight suit and holding a board with RABB/MACKENZIE written on it.
"Okay which way to the COD ensign?" asks Harm showing his ID
"Oh this way sir, ma'am" he says leading them towards the far side of the airport after checking it.
When they arrive at the far side of the airport Harm notices a closed in section that is guarded by Marines, which means that they can't be far from the Navy area. On arriving they see a COD ready to leave.
"Sir, ma'am the COD's waiting for you to board" says the Ensign that they had been following as he moves towards the cockpit
"Did you know he was flying us?" asks Mac a little worried
"No, but he must be competent enough or they wouldn't let him fly" a note of worry in his voice that only Mac would have been able to discern.
"Worried Harm" she asks playfully
"Of course not he's a Navy pilot so naturally one of the best in the world, just not as good as me obviously" replies Harm just as playfully and now with his flyboy grin firmly screwed into place "After you Mac" follows with a hand to help her up the stairs into the COD
Thursday 7th August 2003 USS Seahawk Persian Gulf
Upon landing the pair were met by the fleet JAG in the shape of Lt. Stacey Shaw, who lead them up to the bridge for the meeting with the Captain of the ship.
"Well Lt. you now have the back up of two very experienced investigators to back you up and help with any conclusions that need to be made, although I believe that Cmdr. Rabb has some other business aboard as well?" said an amused Captain
"Yes sir I also have to do my carrier Quals if possible while I'm here"
"Very well Cmdr. I suggest you have a word with the CAG I assume you don't mind flying some combat air patrols with a RIO who's on my staff for this cruise?"
"No sir, I can always use the combat hours. Who's the RIO?"
"I don't think you'll know her, a Lt. Cmd called Hawkes" he said vaguely not knowing the name for definite even though she worked for him.
"Really, Elizabeth Hawkes, when did she get the half stripe?" questioned an excited Harm. Glancing across and seeing a disappointed Mac.
"Don't know why, do you know her?" The captain confirmed with a nod
"Yes sir. She was my RIO a few years back when I went back to flying for a while then we took a swim in the Atlantic together." He said with a smile
"Good well go speak to the CAG then you can find her in my staff compartment."
"Yes sir Thanks" Harm turns and walks towards the door "See Ya later Mac, Lt."
"Ok well with that out of the way Colonel can you and the lieutenant handle the investigation with out the Commanders help for a few days, we get the new pilot in a week."
"Yes sir, that wont be a problem although I'd like permission to still discuss it with him, he may hear something in the ready room."
"That's fine, I'll let you get on with it, Dismissed"
"Aye aye, Sir"
Pri-fly USS Seahawk Persian Gulf
"Sir, Commander Rabb reporting as ordered" says Harm with a salute to the Captain in front of him
"Commander Rabb, so you're the pilot sent me to make up the numbers eh? What squadron have you come in from?"
"Well sir I'm only temporary, my normal duty station is JAG HQ in Washington"
"They sent me a lawyer" said an incredulous CAG
"Yes sir, but I do have two flying crosses and I got a silver star for some flying I did in Afghanistan"
"Ok well did you bring a RIO with you or are you expecting to borrow one?"
"I didn't bring one with me CAG because I didn't expect to be flying but the Captain said I could use one of his staff"
"Good well your quals start this afternoon and you go onto the flight schedule as of tomorrow if you pass so make sure that you and your RIO are ready."
"Yes sir, I'll go and dig her out of the paperwork now"
"Good Dismissed"
When Harm had walked out the door the CAG murmured to himself "So you're the one that out flew the missile"
In the JAG compartment Mac was working through the list of people who were on deck at the time of the murder and seeing who was left for them to interview
"Well Lt. you did a good job getting through this list but from the Chief's statement Lt.Cmd Laurence was on deck at the time but he is not on the list for interviews"
"Yes ma'am he was on deck shortly before but went below about ten minutes before the time of death"
"Ok but we'll add him on anyway he may have seen someone who shouldn't have been there"
"Yes Ma'am" said Stacey making a note
Harm meanwhile had just stepped into the ships office looking for Skates, spotting her in the corner he quickly walks over and says "Hey there, you wanna come fly with me later?"
"HARM, what are you doing here?"
"Simple someone got murdered, Mac and I got sent to investigate, but I got diverted into the flying department cause their one down. Oh and you got nominated as my RIO somewhere along the away"
"That's great, when do we start?"
"This afternoon, we do the quals, so they know I can still land the bird and then we go on the schedule tomorrow"
"Great I'll find out the time and call you, where will you be?"
"The JAG compartment when did you get the half stripe?" says Harm after a moments thought
"Oh came through last month, didn't know I was being boarded"
"They did the same to me, one day I got called into the office of the acting JAG with my old partner and got told"
"Really I wonder if they ever tell anyone"
"Don't know but I got to get going, better go and tell Mac what's happening or she'll never speak to me again
"See Ya later Harm" Skates says to the retreating form
Walking into the JAG Compartment the first thing he saw when he opened the door was a Marine colonel who looked very mad, 'I hope that's not aimed' at me he thought
"Hey Mac, what's up?"
"Nothing" was the flat reply
"Yeah right what is it" he says sitting down on the desk next to her and looking down, Mac looked up and saw his eyes filled with concern
"Oh well its just how cold this murder was, and then the sock of you going flying again, its just a lot to take in on top of the jet lag."
"Don't worry about me, I'll be fine I have Skates to keep me safe, you trust her don't you? And as for the murder it wasn't you so don't worry about that either, I'll help you figure it out and Lt. Shaw seems like an emerging star, don't you think?"
"Yeah I suppose your right, even though I hate to admit it, and I do trust Skates, but you and tomcats don't have that good a history now do they?"
"Hey I haven't broken that many" replies Harm defensively, but with a grin to convince her he was right.
"Ok but promise me not to brake any on this trip"
"Deal as long as you don't go worrying about the murder"
"Fine" and they shake on it
