Episode 1

Chapter 5

All For the Children

Harriet's body was throbbing she reached up to touch her head and felt blood trickling down her forehead. She tried to call Bud's name but couldn't speak, she looked to her side and saw the van embedded in a tree, Harriet tried to scream but she couldn't utter a sound, her legs were numb and it felt as if a thousand little glasses were buried within her skin. Tears blurred up her eyes, Bud was no where is sight, but Bud was strong he had lived through loosing his leg he could survive this…right? Sirens wailed in the distance, Harriet's eyelids grew heavy, sleep was so welcoming right now that she gave into the urge.

Mac had picked up Harm on the way to day care, she was on the phone with the admiral when she pulled up, Harm had a look of concern on his face as he slid into the passenger seat.

"Yes sir... yes sir, Harm's in the car with me now we're on our way to pick up Susan… I understand Admiral…yes sir good bye sir." Mac hung up her cell phone an passed a glance at Harm before looking out…he looked a little different…but Mac brushed that off he was simply concerned.

"What did the admiral want?"

"Apparently little AJ wasn't picked up either, the admiral is on his way to pick him up and we are going to rondevu at the Robert's house to see if anyone is home, if not will go from there…"

"God I hope they're alright." Palmer put as much concern as he could in his voice.

"I'm sure they are." Mac attempted to assure him, as she pulled off and onto the exit for the daycare. The daycare was desolate with the exception of the day care van and one car parked near the front door. Harm and Mac got out and walked up to the day care. A very scared Susan ran up to Harm and Mac and wrapped her body around Mac's leg.

"I take it your Colonel Mackenzie?" A woman about early thirties with curly red hair inquired.

"Yes I am and this is my partner and fiancé Commander Rabb he is also a close and personal friend of the Roberts too." The women nodded in understandment.

"Yes Commander Rabb was second on the list of emergency contact, but I decided to try and get a hold of you first Colonel. I'm Katie Hurst." The young women introduced extending her hand. "Do you have any idea where the Roberts are?"

"Unfortunately we don't, and the Roberts did not pick up their elementary school son AJ either." Mac informed prying Susan from around her leg and picking her up.

"I see, well if there is anything I can do please call me, you can always just call the day care I'm here most of the time and when I'm not I can always check my voicemail." The commander and colonel nodded in understandment.

"Yes thank you, and if the Roberts contact you could you please call us?" Katie Hurst nodded as the military officers turned to leave, Harm grabbing Susan's stuff and Mac carrying Susan.

Admiral Chegwidden pulled up to AJ's elementary school, and walked straight into the front office. AJ was sitting on one of the couches that were arranged around a coffee table littered with newspapers and school bulletins. The young boy seemed to straighten up at the sight of the Admiral in his uniform, Chegwidden adored the young boy and loved him like a grandson.

"At ease cadet." Little AJ visually relaxed, but there was still a look of concern in the young boy's eyes, this was out of character of either of his parents to not pick him up without them telling him.

"Admiral Chegwidden?" Asked a man about mid forties, he had a short, plump figure and a small bald spot.

"That's me an you are…?"

"Principal Stiller." He introduced almost intimidated by the admiral's presence.

"I take it the Roberts have yet to get into contact with you?" The admiral asked wishing to leave.

"No…Admiral…it was just getting late and we felt we needed to contact someone."

"I understand, well thank you." The admiral nodded to little AJ who jumped up and got ready to follow the admiral out.

"Will be in contact if you need us." Principal Stiller called after the exiting pair.

Palmer looked over nervously at Mac…did she figure him out yet?…no she would of said something by now. Mac was distracted by buckling in Susan, she couldn't wait to someday have her own children, especially with Harm. She gave him a warming smile but saw the emotions tugging at his face.

"You're worried about them aren't you?" Mac asked closing the door and getting into the driver seat. Palmer relaxed on the inside, but made sure it wasn't visible, she didn't know.

"Yeah I am its unlike Bud and Harriet to forget picking up their kids."

"I hope they're alright." Mac added starting her engine and they drove on in silence.

As soon as I take care of the admiral all I have left is Mac. A smile snuck across his face as he stared out the window and he couldn't wait to take care of her.

Dum, dum, dum for me to post my next chapter I'll need reviews to know how I did *evil cackle* *cough* So please R/R thanks!!
