"Damn,"Tony muttered under his breath. He just couldn't hit that 3rd target. Snort. Tony whirrled around in time to see a young girl pull off 5 shots in succsesion.
"Wha..."Tony said astonished as they hit dead center each time. "You suck at this." she said turning towards him. She couldn't be older than 13. Yet she could outshoot him.
"And what would a 11 year old know about guns?" He shaved a few years off knowing it would annoy her. It did.
"I'll have you know I'm 16 and if my uncle were here he'd even tell you your stance is way off." "What's wrong with my stance?" he asked confused. "Well nothing but if you shoot like that you'll end up shooting someone's ear off," she said with annoyance.
What she didn't know was he'd already done that. He remembered back to a case he worked with Special Agent Katlin Todd before she died where he had accidentally shot the hostages ear off.
"Look, see there my uncle's over there buying some food." Tony looked across the street at a vendor selling cheeseburgers. He had to use his hand to shield his eyes but when he caught a glimpse of who her uncle was Tony felt short of breath. "Your Uncle isn't Leroy Jethro Gibbs is he?" She whirled around "Yeah..how do you know him?" Tony chuckled under his breath.
"UNCLE JEB," Tony instantly covered his ears. Those who weren't fireing on the outside range all turned to stare at this teenage girl hopping up and down waving her arms. That included Tony's boss Gibbs. "Izzy," Gibbs barked ",do you have to let the whole range know your here?" "Yep," she,Izzy,said dripping with sarcasm "Gimmie" she said reaching for the burger bag.
"Tony...what are you doing here?" Gibbs said shifting his attention from the teen diging into the bag to find her fries to the shaking special agent in front of him. Tony remembered what Gibbs did to him for messing with Abby. What would he do to him because of this girl, his niece? "Um..." that was all he was able to get out mearly shrugging his shoulders. "Uncle Jeb??" Tony asked jerkinghis thumb towards the girl at the table.
"I call him that because A. He's my uncle B. Jethro is an old man's name so I shortened to Jeb. 'K," She balled up her trash lofting the ball over her head backwards. Tony watched it sail over her back it went straight into the trash can at lest a few yards away not even touching the rim. Tony was actually impressed.
"I thought you were an only child," Tony asked as he turened back to Gibbs. "I am. Remember my first wife Shannon? Izzy is her niece. She lived with us till my coma and then she was put into the system as a child and she started running away from all of them. Tectnically she lives with me but she's on the road alot. She does gun shows since I taught her how to shoot for protection. She has one in a couple hours." "Quit braggin' about me,would ya?" Izzy said grinning.
Almost at the same time Tony and Gibbs' cell phones went off. "Timeto go Izzy,"Gibbs stated,"Your going to miss your show" "Damn" Gibbs wirled around not sure that it was Izzy's mouth it came out of. "He said it first," Izzy said pointing at Tony.
Gibbs frowned and smacked both of them on the back of the head. "Lets go."
