I'm sorry about the delay. Here's a short chapter and i'll post more soon.

The characters aren't mine..
Mistakes are..


Lost Chapter 5


Harm stared at the Admiral. Something had happened to Mac.

“Mac's condition has turned worse. Apparently the infection was more severe than what they originally thought,” the Admiral said with worry in his voice.

“What does that mean?” Harm wanted to know.

“Her heart stopped twice, and she is now in critical condition,” the Admiral continued.

Harm didn't know what to say. He just stood there staring at the Admiral.

“I don't know what happened,” the Admiral said.

“How is this possible?” Harm wondered. “She was fine.”

“I wish I could tell you more, Harm,” the Admiral said and put his hand on Harm's shoulder. “We'll just have to be patient and wait for more news.”


A few minutes later Harm was alone in his apartment. For hours he lay awake, until at last he fell into a restless sleep.


Guadalcanal

Mac opened her eyes slowly and saw Colonel Higgins on her way towards Mac's bed.

“Colonel Mackenzie, you gave us quite the scare last night.”

“I need to call someone,” Mac mumbled.

“We've already let Admiral Chegwidden know what's going on,” Colonel Higgins said and smiled. “I think you should rest now.”

“Am I dying?” Mac asked.

“No Colonel, you will not die. The infection was more severe than the Doctor in country thought. You had a foreign object in the small cut on your arm, and the infection went into your blood and attacked your body very hard. The condition is called sepsis and is very rare for people at your age, but you've been in a very unusual situation and the strain on your body has been extremely hard. We seem to have gained control over the infection now, but expect to feel weak for a while. We're sending you to Bethesda sometime today, and don't expect to be released in at least a week. Maybe two even.” Colonel Harris said this very strictly.

“Yes, ma'am,” Mac said with a weak smile.


To Be Continued...
