CH 19

Carly just looked at her father with tears in her eyes then she turned away from him.

"I don't believe this, it's not true!"

"It is Carly, it's all true. After what MacGyver did for you when we first met, that video is his thanks for for saving his daughter you, 'now I'm going to kill you', there's the proof, Carly, the video can't lie," Spider said.

"He told me he was going to make the place better, schools a hospital. Things like that when he started his business."

"Do you even know what his business is?"

"No."

"It was mining, Carly, he was planning on chopping down trees and mining for something, it would ruin the Islands."

"Islands?"

"Yes, several islands will be affected if the mining when ahead."

"I had no idea, I never paid any attention to his business."

"Now you know." When Hammersley docked they handed Ray Walsman over to the police.

MacGyver was on the side deck with Mike, "It's over MacGyver."

"I don't know, it was too easy."

"What was?"

"Him giving up, it was too easy," then she turned to Mike, "it's not over Sir, my gut's telling me, it's not over. I think he might have a backup plan just in case because of what happened after, a few days ago. Whatever it is, I think the elections are the key to what he has planned."

"I hope you wrong, but by what you are saying, I'm afraid you might be right."

After The Enterprise docked and everything is taken care of, Hammersley left Samaru's port and returned home.

The next day, Hammersley returned to Samaru Island. The elections were starting and the UN was there to monitor the voting and the ballots. MacGyver heard that Ray Walsmen had escaped leaving two officers dead. The Enterprise left port half an hour after Hammersley had left the day before. They don't know where the Enterprise is but they left Carly on the island alone.

Hammersley sent a RHIB over to pick her up and bring her back to the ship. She wasn't safe since the war was getting worse on the Island. Later that afternoon the UN boat that was carrying two people from the UN on board had engine trouble, Buffer, Charge and MacGyver took a RHIB over to help not expecting any problems since they were offshore and under the protection of the Navy. For security reasons, a boat from the main island and been sent to pick up the two UN people, and the boxes with the ballots and escort them back to the main island to be counted.

When the RHIB reached the boat, Charge and MacGyver got boarded and introduced themselves. Then Charge went to check out their motor while MacGyver was looking around from the other side when she saw a wire. Charge was going to start the motor up.

"Stop, don't start the engine!" Getting her pocket knife out of her pocket, she pulls out the blade and gets down on her belly.

"What is it?" Buffer asked.

"What are you doing?" the French guy asked.

"I'm using my pocket knife as a mirror."

"Amazing." MacGyver turned the pocket knife around then she looked at the reflection until she saw an orange block, then she moved back and up onto her knees.

"Can I start it?"

"If you do, Charge you can kiss your ass and everyone else's ass goodbye. The motor is rigged with a Semtex bomb, as soon as you start it, it will blow."

"What is Semtex?" The French man inquired.

"Plastic explosives, let's get these boxes onto to the HRIB," MacGyver said.

She stood up, her and Charge picked up the boxes and passed them to Buffer who put them down then the next lot. Once done they boarded the RHIB they headed back to Hammersley. On the way, the boat exploded which shocked them all.

"My god, if you haven't spotted that wire and bomb..." the Frenchman said.

"We know, Sir." When they had returned to Hammersley charge told Baxter and Kate what happen and what MacGyver notice.

After everything was done they went to rendezvous with the main boat and passed the boxes and the two UN Observers over to them. There are police on board to protect the boxes. When that was done they headed to another island so that MacGyver could check out the boat to see if it is safe or not after what had happened before.

When she found the bomb, they took the boxes and the UN people back to Hammersley since it wasn't safe. MacGyver checked five other boats, they all had bombs on board. Once they were all back on the main boat Hammersley headed back to Samaru Island the next day to pick up some UN people since Hammersley was returning to Cairns.

On the way back, RO was showing the group around when they came outside to where Buffer and MacGyver were doing some exercises. They all said, "hi". The last guy in the group had a French accent was talking to them when RO showed up.

"Sir, can you please stay with the group."

"Oh sorry, enjoy your training" MacGyver spoke in French and the guy nodded. "Yeah, bye" then he follows RO. MacGyver stopped her exercises after he left.

"What's wrong?" Buffer said.

"He not french."

"What do you mean?"

"I asked him how is it liking the tour in French, he said yeah, bye, when he could have said oui or yes, I got that gut feeling"

"Not another one."

"You know me, I better let the Captain know." then she walked towards the hatch. When she walked up onto the bridge, she saw Baxter and Kate there

"MacGyver nice uniform." Charge said

"Thanks, Change, Buffer and I were doing some exercises, you know what that is Charge?"

"MacGyver, what are you doing up here?" Kate asked.

"We got a problem with one of the UN guests on board."

"What problem?" the Captain asked from his seat.

"The French guy who came with the group. He's not french at all. I suggest, Sir you call NAVCOM to have him checked out while I'm going to check over the whole ship."

"For What?" Spider asked.

"A bomb or bombs, I think he is working for Ray Walsmen and this ship is the target," then she turned around and walked off the bridge.

"Get changed first, MacGyver," Kate said.

"No time X, bomb first," she called back.

MacGyver checked out the whole ship and when she had time she walked down to austere to find that there was no one there. Swain and Kate went with her when she checked fake Frenchman's bag out. It had flippers, goggles, a beacon and a wire with two wooden handles on each end.

"Looks like Walsmen hired an assassin," MacGyver said.

"Are you sure?" Kate asked.

"Yeah, this is one of the tools they use, they come up behind you and put this around your neck and pull, it cuts the victim's throat in seconds and if the person is strong enough, cut the head off."

"Question is, who's the target?" Swain said.

MacGyver stood up, " I am, without me there are no witnesses at his trial."

"We better let the Captain know," Kate said.

MacGyver look at the wire in her hand, she pulled out her pocket knife and fiddled with it.

"What are you doing?" Swain asked.

"Sabotaging this wire so when he does go and use it, it will break."

When she finished she put it back in the guy's bag and put his bag back where it was before. Then they left and headed to the bridge. That night MacGyver was on duty watch with Spider when the guy walked up onto the bridge.

"Hi," he said.

"Hi, can't you sleep?" MacGyver asked.

"No, where's the rest of the crew?"

"Sleeping, well most of them are," Spider said then he stood up.

"Brew MacGyver?"

"No thanks, I'm good. We've got another hour before shift change."

"Ok, what about you sir?"

"I'm good, thanks." Spider walked off the bridge. He ran quickly down to Buffer's cabin and woke him up.

"Buffer!"

"Spider I'm trying to sleep here."

"That French guy, he is making his move." Buffer opened his eyes and got out of bed just as Charge sat up.

"What's going on?"

"Charge, wake up Swain, the Captain and X, that French UN guy is a hired assassin, MacGyver the target," Buffer said as he put his pants on and grabbed his keys to the weapons locker then he and Spider ran out of the room while Charge made the calls.

MacGyver walked over and was checking on everything when the guy came up behind her and put the wire around her neck, when he went to pull it, it broke which shocked him. MacGyver turned around and pushed him hard then they fought while on the bridge until MacGyver got him in a sleeper hold. Buffer and Spider ran up onto the bridge and seeing the look on MacGyver's face as she held onto the guy. As he started to close his eyes MacGyver said, "It's over for you, whoever you are," then she let go and stood back as he collapsed on the ground breathing hard, in and out. It was just then that the others showed up.

"MacGyver are you ok?" Swain asked when he saw the mark on her neck.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Can you guys take care of him I'm on duty watch for another forty minutes."

"Sure, a pleasure," they pick the guy up and remove him from the bridge.

"Are you sure your ok?" Kate asked.

"Yes, I'm ok, see you in the morning, X."

"Ok then, goodnight," then she walked off the bridge.

The next morning after breakfast, MacGyver went up to the bridge when she heard Baxter talking to Mike, so she stepped forward, "Sir, I have an idea, may I?" she held out her hand for the phone.

"Mike, MacGyver wants a word" then he passed the phone to him.

"Sir."

"MacGyver, I heard what happened to you. Are you ok?"

"Yes, I'm fine, Sir. Now my idea is we use the beacon to catch whoever it is that was going to pick the assassin up, and if my plan works we might catch Ray Walsmen himself."

"What are you thinking?"

"There's an island not far from our position that would be the perfect place for the trap."

"You know what you're doing so you have a go and happy hunting."

MacGyver laughed, "thank you, sir."

"Fair winds" then they hung up.

She rubbed her hands together, "Who wants to go hunting with me and catch one Ray Walsmen?" they all put their hands up.

"Great, Sir, Commander Flynn gave me his approval for this OP and wishes us happy hunting."

"Ok, tell us more about your plan," Baxter asked and MacGyver smiled.

Within an hour MacGyver plan worked, the shore party caught the two men who were going to pick up the assassin while the RHIB boarded Ray Walsmen's boat. MacGyver was on the boarding party. When they check out the boat they saw one room had been turned into some type of command centre. MacGyver sat down and start doing some typing on the keyboard.

"What are you doing?" Kate asked.

"Finding Walsmen, since he's got everything here, he will have a backup somewhere if I can find it, then we've got him."

"How long?"

"Got him!" she put it up on the screen.

"Well well, what do we have here? It's another boat and we've got the perfect Trojan Horse or boat in this case, X."

"What's the plan?" She smiled.
