A/N: I'm not a very good writer, and I've had plenty if ideas but I've never really got a story written, but this time, it just wouldn't get out of my head. Also, I'm not sure how I am at characterising the characters, I hope I'm not too off, do let me know though. Which leads me to, please review, I'm not planning on writing anymore, but if people like it, I may be persuaded.
Summary: The team receive an email they never thought they'd get.
Warning: Character death, I can't believe I did this, but it's what came to me. I'd been told, once a bunny enters your mind, it doesn't let go. They were right!

Ziva silently walked into the squad room and sat down at her desk. Tony gave her no more than a glance as he also reached his desk. She gasped in surprise as to what lay in her inbox, over her computer she saw Tony raise his eyebrows. Taking a breath, she clicked on the impossible message.

Hey everyone,
There would only be one reason for you to be receiving this email, other than it being a really bad mistake on account of my computer, highly unlikely. Anyway, the reason isn't all that pleasant for me to think of, but I have no doubt it could happen, as it has once already. It means I am dead.
While I hope to live a long life, I know that in our line of work, death is an all too likely possibility. I hope I died in honour of our country, and I hope no one else died with me, least of all one of you.
I know death hits us hard; it did me, which is the reason for this letter. I hope to give you all some piece of mind. Truthfully, I don't know if it will help at all, it's just that I know I would've loved to hear a few last words from Kate, and that is what I wish to give you.
I consider you all my family. I hope you can mourn, and move on. I hope memories of me put smiles on your faces, and I hope you all know that I love you. It may not be what I expected, but it has already been more than I could've hoped for.
I hope all of you still have hopes too.
Yours always,
Tim McGee
