"Captain." Tiner caught up with Harm as he pushed through the doors of JAG. He had stay with Mac and Abi until it was time for them to leave.

"Have you seen Major Williams?" Harm asked.

"She's in court sir. The Admiral asked me to give you a message and some files I have on my desk."

"What kind of message?"

"He's going to be tied up in a meeting in the conference room for most of the morning; he would like you to keep a watch over ops until he is done. He also has a series of files that he was supposed to review for the SecNav he would like you to take care of and a report from the NCIS agent from Norfolk who took over investigating yesterday after you left is on your desk. He'd like you to call him back once you've had a chance to look it over."

"Fine thank you." He paused. "Tiner I don't suppose you could get me some coffee?"

"Of course Captain."

"Thank you." Harm managed a weak smile.

"Sir." Harriet said coming to the door a few minutes later.

"Yes Harriet?" Harm asked.

"I didn't get chance to find the Colonel yesterday to tell her, but if you see her before I do that my OB cleared me for the class, just to let me know what day it is on."

"Class?" Harm questioned.

"Pregnancy yoga." Harriet replied.

"I don't think she mention that, but ..." He trailed off.

"Sir, is everything okay?" Harriet inquired.

"Harriet take a seat and get off your feet, I need to tell you something."

"Is something wrong sir?" Harriet asked sitting down.

"Depends on your definition of wrong. Is Bud around?"

"In his office I believe sir."

Harm picked up the phone and dialled Bud's extension, when he picked.

"Bud, its Harm can you come to my office for a minute.... Thank you." He hung up.

"Sir, your coffee and those files." Tiner came to the doorway.

"I'll take the coffee; you can put the files on the desk."

"Yes sir." Tiner did as he asked.

"Tiner, did Jen explain what was going on yesterday?"

"No sir, both she and the Admiral said not to ask questions."

"Well you should know, so stay too."

"You wanted to see me sir?" Bud asked coming to the door.

"Yes. Come in and close the door Lieutenant."

"What's going on sir?" Harriet asked.

"Yesterday Mac received a death threat against both and Abi. NCIS are investigating as is Webb. That's why I came back suddenly yesterday and why we were hauled up in Mac's office for most of yesterday too."

"Oh god." Harriet said.

"Why would anyone want to threaten them?" Bud asked.

"It was a get the charges dropped against Krennick or else kind of a death threat." Harm replied. "However that's not the end of the story."

"There's more sir?" Tiner questioned.

"At around 0230 this morning we had a brick tossed through the window, the threat on this one was more serious. Gibbs and NCIS are working on it, but we all felt that it would be safer if Mac and Abi disappeared for a few days. They stayed with Sturgis for the rest of the night while Webb arranged for them to disappear into thin air. Even I have no idea where they are."

"Are they both okay?" Harriet asked.

"Abi didn't take to well to being woken up but she's fine and Webb is finding someone to keep a check on Mac's blood pressure. She was a little shaken but she's holding up."

"Is there anything we can do sir?" Tiner asked.

"Both the Admiral and Admiral Morris know, as do Sturgis, Faith, Brett and Jen. You were all informed because we trust you not to talk about this. But this is to go no further. If anyone calls asking for her, tell them she's unavailable if they would like to leave their name and number she'll get back to them. If they come in look for her, she's a judge so you don't keep tabs on her whereabouts, refer them to Jen. The Admiral briefed her on what happened last night in addition to what she knew anyway, she knows how to deal with any inquires."

"Yes sir." Harriet replied.

"Oh and if Gibbs calls I want him put straight through to me. I don't care if I'm in a meeting, I need to know."

"Yes sir." Both Harriet and Tiner said.

"Now get back to work, the Admiral has left me busy work while he deals with Mac's suspended court martial."

"If you need anything sir..." Bud said.

"Or if you want to come over for dinner." Harriet added.

"Thank you both."

"We're all here if you need anything sir." Tiner added. "That's what families do."

"Very true."
