Macgyver

Chapter Ten

My eyes silently follow MacGyver's form as he adjusts the film so it runs into the machine perfectly. He starts it taking a seat beside me, one hand on the drill to keep it playing, sitting on the wooden picnic table that, we still needed to be stained. A soft buzz fills the air as it starts to play.

The image was fuzzy and not swift moving but one thing stood out. James MacGyver was playing with MacGyver building some model thing. That's wasn't weird, it was filmed through a window the glare of a person was clear. The usual harsh brown eyes that were usually used to scold Jack, MacGyver, and I for 'stupid' stuff we do were soft looking at the scene in front of them that they were filming.

"That's-"

"Matty." I finish for MacGyver.

He pauses it is us both getting closer. Suddenly  the image distorts causing us to turn to find the film smoking. MacGyver dissembles it with in seconds but the smell of burnt plastic lingering in the air confirms that it's ruined.

"Fuck." MacGyver mutters throwing it down. He plops down beside me running his hand through his hair, "That was for sure Matty though?"

"Yeah." I confirm interlacing my hand with his, "We need to get more clues before we confront her."

He nods before clearing his throat, "Can we get black out drunk?"

"You're a mind reader." I joke standing pulling MacGyver up after me. We enter the house b-lining to the kitchen where I grab us both a beer, "Cheers." we knock our bottles together popping of the tops quickly lifting the glass to our lips.

"Are you sure you want to talk to Jack about this. Matty might be pissed at him but Jack still respects her." I ask as we climb the steps to Jack's apartment.

"Yes." He confirms knocking on the door. Jack opens the door a little before seeing us and opening the door all the way, "Wow what's with the gun?"

"And your eye." I continue seeing the bruising that was starting to develop around his left eye.

"Nothing." Jack dismisses as we walk in, to Riley's dad holding a huge as swords. MacGyver gives Jack a sarcastic reply as I point, "What are you doing?" Jack questions only sounding a little annoyed.

Riley's dad Elwood lowers it replying with a simple, "Thought it might be Dougie."

"Nope Elwood just MacGyver and I." I reply sitting down, "We work with Riley."

"How do you know my name?" He questions making me laugh.

"Riley showed me a picture called you Elwood, need I explain in longer form?" I grab a random magazine from Jack's table flipping through it.

"Nice to meet you." MacGyver shakes hands with Elwood directing his attention back to Jack, "Well you look busy. I was gonna talk but-"

"NO, no ,no no, no. We can talk, Kingsley keep an eye on him." Jack says pointing at Elwood as they approach the door.

"Sure thing." They leave shutting the door. "Put the katana up."

He follows my orders before coming back, "Your friends with Riley?"

"Yeah, I mean we were the only girls in our division for a while." I reply shrugging. "Now I know Jack wouldn't invite you here unless either him or you were in trouble."

"I threw a 75 grand baseball into a bay and now the guys that wanted to sell it are looking for it."

"Create a fake." I say nonchalantly as Jack and MacGyver reenter the apartment
