Danvale.....The Bloodline Continues

It's on the front page of this story, she's now two.
-------------------


When Mac got back to the bridge with Danny, they started collecting the piece's of the debris that was left behind. Once they had gathered what they could, they headed back to the car, heading to the office.



"What do you think it is Mac"? "I'm not sure, but I need to find out, someone is not going to leave a package sitting there, for an officer to find, just don't make sense". Pulling into the parking lot, they gathered up the box of debris, and were stopped at the door. "What is it Cheif"? "Give it too me Mac, and go home".



"Give you what"? "The box, give it to me now, the FBI is here, and they want it". "That's to bad, then they can go find there own". "I'm not fooling here Mac, give me the box, or you are on suspention for two weeks". "This is insane, just what the hell are thay hiding"? "I don't know Mac, but you need to let it go, you have your daughter back, go spend time with them".



Mac knew something was going on, and he had just about had enough. Walking inside he stopped to see Adam. "Adam, I need you to do me a favour". "Sure MAc, what is it"? "Try and keep your ears open with these FBI guy's, I need to know what was in that box". "I'll do my best, and give you al call". "Thanks".



Leaving out the door, Mac noticed he was being watched by the FBI. Arriving at home, he found two of them sitting out front, walking over he asked. "I'm only going to say this once, get the hell away from my home, NOW!!! Speeding away, they parked three quarter's of the way up the street.



"Mac...what's going on, why are we being watched"? "I'm not sure sweetheart, but I have Adam keeping his ears open at work, it has something to do with that damn box". "So now what do we do"? "Now...we watch the cd disc, I scammed in my pocket, I'm sure we'll find something on it".



Placing it into the cd reader, Mac clicked open, and stared in shock, for there was a picture, and file on Claire Taylor, Mac's deceased wife.
 
"Mac...is that who I think it is"? "It is love, it's Claire". "Who the hell would have information on Claire"? "I don't know love, I can't get my hands on that box, the FBI have it now". "How about calling Horatio in Miami, doesn't he have friends in the FBI who owe him favours"?



Picking up the phone, Mac called Miami. "Caine". "Horatio, it's Mac, how are you"? "Good, good Mac, and you"? "Not to good, I seem to have come across something I shouldn't have seen, but before I had a chance to check it out, the FBI took it, but I managed to grab a cd from it, turns out it has my deceased wife on it".



"Hmm...do you think there is something going on there"? "Listen "H", it's one of two things, either Claire is alive, or they know what really happened on 9/11". "What's on the disc"? "I don't know, it's in code, and I can't trust anyone here, if I sent it to you, could you have your team figure out"? "We can do our best, will you be coming"?



"I think so, and I'll be bringing the family, just in case something should go wrong, I don't want my family hurt". "Okay...okay, what time can you get here"? "About 6pm, can you meet me at the Airport". "I'll be there Mac, and be careful, for if they know you have this information, they won't hesitate to get it back". "I know Horatio, and thanks".



Phoning NYPD, Mac asked to speak with Sinclair. "Sinclaire". "Sinclair, it's Mac Taylor calling, I'd just like to let you know that I'll be leaving for a while with my family, we've decided to vacation in Miami, for a few days, I need to get out of here". "Fine Mac, you go ahead, have fun, we will handle things here, have a safe trip".



After hanging up the phone, Mac packed up his family, and headed to Miami, with the CD.
 
When they arrived in Miami, Horatio was waiting for them.

"We are being followed, two G's to your left, and one to your right, I think it would be best if you have Eric meet us at the Hotel, undercover, these are professional's we are dealing with".

"No problem Mac, I'll just drop you and your family off there, then head over to Miami-Dade".

As they got into the hummer, they were followed all the way to the Hotel.

"I'll check in on you later, here is a two way radio, all frequency's are jammed, except for line 2, that is the only line you use to communicate, and don't worry Mac, we will get this figured out".

"Thanks Horatio, be careful".

"I always am , I always am".

As he drove to Miami-Dade, he was pulled over, and told to exit the hummer.

"Lt.Horatio Caine"?

"That's right, what can I do for you gentlemen"?

"We need to check your hummer, we've had reports of smuggling in this area, and someone was seen near your hummer while you were in the Airport".

"Well gentlemen, feel free, check away, and when you are done, I'll take your badge number's, and names".

After checking the hummer, they gave Horatio their names, and fake badge number's, for he knew they were in no way tied to the FBI, for he had already checked with his friends in that department".

Arriving back at the lab, he contacted Eric, and informed him to put on a suit, grab a bouquet of flower's, and head over to room 556 to see Mac.

"What...is this a date"? "This isn't funny Eric, we are all being followed, be carefully, and watch your back, most of all, keep in contact".

"I will "H", don't worry, it will be fine".

"You'll be picking up a CD, bring it back here, and process it, alone, no one is to be with you, except Tyler, understood".

"Of course "H", I'll see you later".

When Eric left, Horatio wondered what the hell Mac had gotten himself into.
 
When Eric pulled up in front of the Hotel with flower's and chocolate, dressed in a tux, he noticed the unmarked untit sitting across the street.


"Good evening sir, how can we help you"?

"I'm here to see Stella Taylor, she's expecting me".

Calling up to the apartment, the desk clerk got the okay to send him up.

Knocking on the door, Mac looked both ways, and pulled Eric in.

"Easy Mac..that's my arm, what the hell is going on, there are unmarked units outside"?

"I know, I'm not sure what's going down, I think they are after this CD I found in the rubbage that was left at the bridge".

"Chrsit...it must be something important, that they want it back this badly".

"It is, and it has to do with my dead wife, it's her picture and file, but I can't siffer it".

"Okay...Calleigh should be here somewhere, she's going to be my date, as we leave the Hotel".

*Knock, knock*.

Pulling out his gun, Eric told him to relax, it's just Calleigh.

"Hey Eric, you ready to go"?

"Yeah Cal, this is Mac Taylor, and his wife Stella".

"Hi ya'll, I remember Mac from a case way back, but it's wonderful to meet you Stella, I wish it was under better circumstances".

"You and me both, but I really appriciate you doing this for our family".

"Aww...no problem, I know how important family is, and I also know how sneaky FBI can be".

"Okay Mac, we're going to get going, I'll contact you when we have any information for you".

"Thanks again Eric".

Leaving out the door, Eric put the CD down Cal's dress, they had been dating for a while now, and Eric felt no shame in doing it.

"Naughty boy, she giggled, can't even wait till we get home".


"Funny Cal, as he kissed her, now let's go".

As they exited the Hotel, the unmarked units ignored them, as they got into the sportscar Eric had rented.

"This is nice, I like this".

"You would Cal, now let's get this disc back to the lab".

Pulling out of the curb, Eric noticed they weren't even being followed.
 
Just as they neared the lab, someone crashed into them, sending Calleigh flying from the car, as it crunched up trapping Eric. As everyone gathered around, someone called 911, while another checked on Calleigh, searching the car quickly, along with Eric, they could find no CD, but as they neared Calleigh, the police, Ambulance, and Horatio showed up on scene.


"What happened here"?

"Looks like a major crash, this bla.....". As the guy looked around he noticed the car was gone.

"There was a black sedan here, it smashed full force into this little sports car, throwing one of the passanger's".

As Horatio checked on Eric, he could hear him calling Calleigh's name. Walking over, Horatio found Calleigh lying motionless, as the EMT's worked on her.

"How is she"?

"Not good sir, she's got a cracked skull, and possible spinal injury, we found this on her, it's chipped, but still on one piece".

"Thank you, I'll take that, is she going to survive"?

"I don't know that yet sir, we are just about ready to transport both of them".

As Eric crawled over, he screamed at the Medic.

"Be careful...watch the way you lift her, she's pregnant".

Everyone stared in shock.

"I'm sorry sir, did you say she is with child"?

"That's right, she's 12 weeks, please tell me our child is okay".

As they put the moniter on, they could hear the heartbeat of the baby.

"The baby is fine sir, there is no distress, now we need to move her".

Climbing into the Ambulance, they took off with the siren blasting.

"Horatio....did you...."?

"No Frank, did you know"?

"I had no idea, how about you two"?

"None, sorry "H"...I wasn't even aware they were dating".

"Okay, okay....Ryan, you and Natalia get to the hospital, Frank you come with me to the lab, I need to fill you in on what's going on.
 
When they got to the Hospital, Eric waited patiently to hear from the OBGYN about their child, and Calleigh's injuries.

"Excuse me...are you Eric Delko"?

"I am yes....how's my fiance and child"?

"Your fiance is doing fine, she's contained alot of bruising to her skull, and spine, but it showed no fracture or crack's, as for your child, I'm sorry to inform you she lost the baby, we tried everything possible to stop the bleeding, but the hemorraging was major, and the baby was lost".

Bowing his head in tears, Eric thanked the nurse, and walked into the darkened room.

"Hi sweetheart"?

"Hi Eric...I hurt so bad, the pain is so sharp".

"Have they given you anything for pain"?

"I think Morphine, but we've lost the baby Eric, our baby is gone".

Laying carefully beside her, he whispered...."it's okay Calleigh, you are alive, to me that's all that matter's, we can always have another child, but I can never have another you".

"I know Eric, but it's just so hard, I really wanted our child, I've dreamed of us in our home, watching her/him grow up, going to school, I'm so sorry Eric".

"Shhh...it's okay Calleigh, I promise we will have another one, as soon as you are better we will try again".


Hearing the door open, Horatio peeked in.

"How's she doing Eric"?

"Not good "H", she's pretty upset about the baby".

"I understand, try not to worry sweetheart, when the time is right again, it will happen".

"I know handsom, but everyone must be shocked, for no one knew".

"They were, but the initial shock has worn off, the team is more concerned about you, and how you are feeling".

"Tell them I'm fine Horatio, were you able to save the cd for Mac"?

"Tyler's cleaning it up now, we won't know until he runs it through, could be a while".

"Poor Mac, could you imagine finding out your wife is alive, after all these years, and oh how Stella must feel, she must be hurting, or very scared".

"Sweetheart, we don't know that for sure yet, it could be something to do with 9/11".

"I know, but if she is......."

"Stella's strong, she'll be okay, no matter what the outcome. Anyways, you should get some rest, and I'll see you in the morning".

"Okay...goodnight handsom".

"Night sweetheart".

After Horatio left, he decided to stop by the Hotel, and see how Mac was getting on with his lovely wife, and child.
