"Harm can you take Abi and put her coat on while I pack her a bag?" Mac asked.
"Of course. Is it still downstairs?" Harm questioned.
"On the couch I think." Mac replied.
"I'll take your bag downstairs, put some shoes on before you come down, there is glass everywhere."
"Okay."
Harm got up at the knock on the door. He had Abi all bundled up held against his shoulder. He checked the peephole before opening the door.
"Hey buddy." Sturgis said.
"Sorry for calling so late or early." Harm replied.
"It's okay. Wow that's definitely a mess." He commented when he saw the glass.
"Tell me about it." Harm sighed. "Don't touch it. Gibbs has a team on the way over here, but at the moment my biggest concern is getting Mac and Abi out of here."
"Where is Mac?" Sturgis asked.
"Bathroom. Can you take Abi while I go and swap her car seat into your car?"
"Of course."
"Captain." Gibbs said walking up behind Harm as he finished checking the car seat was secure.
"Gibbs." Harm stood up right.
"Going somewhere?" He asked.
"I have a friend taking my wife and daughter to his apartment. Mac's four and half months pregnant she needs to sleep. Webb should be here soon, he's going to help her disappear until we sort this out."
"Just who else did you call?" Gibbs asked.
"Only the Admiral. He'll be here about five ten minutes, I needed his authorisation for her to have the time off, not that she knows about it right now. Let's get inside."
"Anyone touched anything out here?" Gibbs asked.
"No. Only the SUV to get the car seat out and put it in Sturgis's car. We've kept away from the glass too."
"We'll have someone dust it for prints."
"Apparently there were a whole load of Marines who checked it out for being tampered with earlier."
"I know." Gibbs replied.
"Oh God." Mac said when she came down the stairs and saw the glass scattered across the floor.
"It's okay honey." Harm walked over and wrapped his arms around her. "We'll get it cleared up." He dropped a kiss on top of her head. "Get your coat on and someone will go with you to put Abi in Sturgis's car. I just need to talk to him for a minute."
"Okay." Mac then saw Gibbs. "If you get this cleared up quickly, you can come by for search warrants whenever you like. You can even send DiNozzo."
"I knew you like me Colonel." DiNozzo said coming through the door. "Nice place you got here."
"Would be even better if someone hadn't thrown a brick through the window." Mac replied as she took Abi from Sturgis.
"DiNozzo go with the Colonel while she puts her daughter in the car." Gibbs instructed. "And stay with her until Commander Turner gets there."
"Yes boss. Colonel after you."
"Sturgis." Harm said after he was sure Mac was out of earshot. "Webb is arranging for her to be out of town for a while. But you can tell Faith that I'll testify, I have had enough of Allison Krennick for one lifetime."
"Are you sure you want to do that Harm?" AJ asked walking in the door.
"I should have done it eight years ago. It's one thing for her to affect my life but when it starts affecting my family that's a whole different ball game sir."
"I see your point."
"Sturgis, you can also tell Faith I can have Meg on the first plane here, if she lets me know when she wants to call her as a witness." Harm added.
"I thought Austin was unavailable. McPhalin has been waiting for her to call him back for a week."
"I have her emergency pager number. She has it with her everywhere. I don't know where she is but she'll have it with her."
"If you're talking about Meg Austin, she's taking a few days off; she's been helping me with a little project for a few days." Webb walked in the door. "But that information is classified as is her location."
"Right, I'll let Faith know. I should get Mac and Abi back to my place."
"Thanks Sturgis." Harm handed him Abi's bag. "Tell Mac I'll call her in the morning."
"Will do. Goodnight Admiral, Webb."
"Commander." AJ said.
"So Harm where would you like me to send them?" Webb asked.
"The less I know the better at the moment. But avoid boats and make sure there is a doctor around to keep an eye on her blood pressure." Harm said.
"Harm, if you don't stop pacing it's your blood pressure that we're going be concerned about." AJ said.
"Sorry sir." Harm replied.
Webb's phone rang.
"Webb." He answered. "Yes... are you sure?.... Really?... Okay thanks." He hung up. "Krennick hasn't been out of her room all night. We have people watching all the exits. But she has had a couple of male visitors over the weekend."
