Hell Sibling (MacGyver FF) HS1 UNDER REVISION

Part 1- The Encounter

MacGyver

Angus MacGyver yawned and looked impatiently at his watch, wondering when this damn briefing was going to start. He'd been interrupted on this fine Thursday morning with an abrupt phone call about a level four emergency, and was growing restive as to why.

Sharing his intense feeling of annoyance was the director of the Phoenix, Matty Webber. They'd been waiting on the others for the past fifteen minute, and the shorter woman was clearly on the verge of losing her cool.

She paced back and forth across the open room, circling around the black leather chairs that sat in pairs against the paneled glass walls. Mac was pretty sure that if she glared at the floor any longer, she'd burn a hole straight through it.

Finally, after what had apparently felt like an eternity to a certain director, the door clicked open, and a very flustered looking Jack, Cage, and Riley entered the room.

Matty finally ceased her pacing, pinning them all with a stern look.

"Thank you for so kindly deciding to grace us with your presence." Her dark gazed surveyed the team once more, and a look of confusion passed over her face. "And where the hell is Bozer?"

"Uh..he said he had some loose ends to tie up in the lab." Riley answered. She sounded tentative, as though she feared Matty would claw her face off if she even spoke a single word.

While that wasn't the case, the director's glare still hardened further. "I suppose we'll have to start without him. We've wasted enough time already." She replied, an edge to her voice.

Pivoting away from her team—with a roll of her eyes no less—she turned her attention to the once blank screen, now holding the image of a young blond with piercing blue eyes. Mac guessed that she couldn't be more than twenty. A few lines of cryptic information were listed underneath the identification, but he was too far away to read them.

"It seems that when Murdoc went and disposed of his little kubal, he forgot one." Matty continued, motioning to the young woman on the screen. "Meet Spider."

"Spider?" Riley snorted, "What kind of a name is that?"

"Regardless of her choice in title," Matty directed the conversation away from Riley's snide comment. "She's been giving us quite a bit of trouble."

"What do we know about her?" Cage spoke up.

Matty glanced down at her tablet before addressing her audience again. "From what I gather, she's no more than eighteen. She worked for Murdoc under something called "The Black Code"."

"And she's still associated with him?" Cage continued her questioning.

Matty shook her head. "No. Apparently she's since cut ties for unknown reasons. It seems she left before the mutiny. What we do know is that she's dangerous. Some of our own have been caught in her claws. Let's just say the aftermath was extremely unpleasant."

"What kind of unpleasant are we talking here?" Jack inquired.

"Her last victim spent three months in the hospital."

"So she's a rouge." Mac whispered under his breath.

"Maybe not." Matty responded, catching wind of his statement. "She's been specifically targeting our people. Whether she's under orders or not, Spider has a serious agenda, and it's one that greatly threatens us."

"So what do we do about it?" Cage finally addressed the elephant in the room.

Matty fixed them with a meaningful stare. "Find her. Bring her in. I want to find out what kind of an operation she's running against us."
