Chapter 1
As Deeks leaves Kip's place after a night of revelry with his long time friend, his thoughts immediately go to his girlfriend Kensi. He's not been away from her for a very long time, but when Kip called last week about watching a ball game and tipping a few beers, Kensi told him to go ahead, that she would go out to dinner with Michelle and Nell. So he told Kip he was in. But, now that he's driving home, he's really anxious to see her. He's thinking it's time to pop the question if he misses her this much after just a few hours away from her. As he thinks of her, the smile on his face grows.
As he pulls into the driveway of their new home, one with 2 bedrooms like she wanted, he notices a strange car parked on the street in the front of their home. When he notices the front door is slightly open, he pulls his service weapon and heads towards it, thinking he's just being paranoid. As he pushes the door open slowly, he sees the kitchen light on and it casts a glow into the living room where he notices that the table is upended as though there was a fight of some sort. There is no one on the first floor so he carefully heads up the stairs to the second floor going into the spare bedroom first. Nothing out of place there. So he ventures to the bathroom, the next room down the hall.
As soon as he opens the door he sees her, she's laying in the tub with blood running down her legs, mixing with other fluids he refuses to name. He quickly checks for a pulse and finds a strong one. He pulls a towel off the rack and gently puts it over her, wanting to cover her and when he's done, the rage takes him and all he can think of is finding whoever did this to the love of his life and making them pay. As he gets ready to dial 9-1-1, he hears voices coming from the hall by their bedroom. The next thing he knows he's falling to the floor. Before the darkness takes him, he pushes his Agent In Distress number and thinks to himself that one of the voices sounded like Sabatino's. Impossible, he thinks to himself as the darkness engulfs him.
As Sam and Michelle are getting ready for bed, his phone goes off and he sees it's Deeks's AID number. "Hang on Deeks, I'm on the way." And out the door Sam goes, wondering what could have happened to Deeks. As he pulls into Deeks's driveway, he pulls his weapon. As he advances to the front door, he sees the front door partially open. Sam enters the house. He sees the upended table and wonders 'what happened here last night?' As he clears the rest of the first floor, he heads up the stairway to the second floor and notices several pieces of foil. As he looks at one of them, he sees the printing, 'Ramses', on the front and thinks to himself that this is starting to look bad.
He gets to the second floor and clears the first bedroom and heads to the bathroom next where he finds Deeks out cold on the floor. But what catches his notice is Kensi laying in the bathtub. He calls 9-1-1 and gives them the information and breaks the connection. He feels Kensi's neck checking for a pulse and then sees the same thing Deeks had. The blood and other fluids running down her legs and then he knows . . . she had been attacked! He also notices a little drop of blood on the side of her neck. As he looks at it closer, he sees that it is an injection site. Someone drugged her and then . . . He doesn't want to think of what happened. He needs to gets his friends some help. He takes several photos and finds a towel to better cover her up with. He thinks to himself about what happened here. The evidence all points to rape but until Kensi gets to the hospital and checked out, they won't know what happened.
"Sam!?"
"Upstairs G." Sam hollers back. With that, he hears Deeks start to come around.
"KENS!' Deeks screams as he regains consciousness.
"Settle down Deeks" Sam says, "We got help coming. Can you tell me what happened?"
"I don't know Sam. I had just got home from Kip's place and I noticed a strange car in front of the house and the front door open. I pulled my weapon on the off chance of something bad waiting for me inside the house. I cleared the first floor, noticing the upended table, and headed upstairs looking for Kensi. I cleared the first room and then checked the bathroom where I found Kensi in the tub. I was going to dial 9-1-1 when I thought I heard Sabatino's voice and then someone clubbed me in the head and I remember hitting the floor and pushing the speed-dial button for my AID number. Then I blacked out."
"Sabatino's voice?" Sam inquires.
"I don't mean it was Sabatino, just that it sounded like his voice. I mean why would a CIA agent, be here doing whatever he did. Also, there was another one, if not more. I heard him talking to someone else so maybe there were more than two of them. Hopefully there will be prints someplace. Damn, my head really hurts." And saying that he goes out again.
"It looks like someone hit him really hard. For sure he's concussed. We need to wake him back up Sam." As Callen walks into the bathroom to give some aid to Sam, He hears the rescue squad get there. "Upstairs" he hollers.
Sam gets Deeks awake again and the first thing Deeks does is try to get to Kensi. It takes Sam and Callen to get him out of the bathroom so the rescue workers can work. Sam tells them that she was drugged and mentions the injection site on her neck.
The rescue workers cover Kensi with a blanket and lift her from the tub to the gurney and wheel her into the hallway where they can look her over a little better. They can't really clean her up as it's all possible evidence but they can look her over for injuries. They find some bruising on her legs but nothing broken. Then they turn their attention to Deeks. After checking him over they tell him he has a concussion and needs to go to the hospital also.
After helping the rescue workers load Kensi and Deeks, Sam and Callen go back inside the house and start looking for clues as to what happened. As they look and take pictures, the LAPD Forensics squad arrives and takes over. "Try to find something for us. The two people who were hurt here are officers of the law. One NCIS Agent and one LAPD Detective. We need to find whoever did this to them." Sam pleads.
"We'll go over everything with a fine tooth comb. If there is anything here, we'll find it." And they start looking as Sam and Callen head to OSP.
As Sam and Callen walk into OPS, they can see Nell and Eric typing away on their computers trying to look at any traffic cams in the area to see if they can find anything. Hetty is standing there waiting for any news that they may find when Sam and Callen enter. "How are they Mr. Hanna?"
"Well, Deeks has a concussion. Someone hit him on the head and knocked him out cold. Kensi was raped repeatedly. We don't know how many there were but they drugged her and put her in the tub when they were done with her. It looks like they were going to try to get rid of any DNA by washing her up or something. Deeks surprised them before they could start." Sam pauses and then says "Deeks told him that one of the voices sounded like Sabatino. Not that it was him, just that the voice sounded like his."
Nell pipes up with "We found something. Two men get to Deeks and Kensi's house about 10:pm in a dark sedan. Can't really see who they are though. They're sitting in the car waiting for something. Here comes Kensi and as soon as she enters the house, the men get out of the car." Nell grows quiet at what she sees.
"Put it on the big screen please" Hetty asks.
The room grows so quiet that you could hear a pin drop and then Sam growls, " That's Jack Simon and Nick Sabatino. What the hell !?"
"Find them" Hetty says, "Find them and bring them to the boat shed. I'm going to make a few calls to find out what the devil is going on." And then spins on her heel and leaves OPS.
"It looks like they leave the house just a few minutes before you get there Sam." Nell says. "We'll see if we can see where they went to." Eric follows the car to an underground parking structure downtown and never see them come back out.
"Let's go G" and Sam and Callen leave to check out the car. It only takes them a few minutes to find the car once they get to the garage and they find all sorts of things inside it. They find an empty drug bottle with a used syringe and a couple empty bottles of booze. "The two guys must have drank a little liquid courage." Sam mentions.
"We need to find them Sam. We need to find them fast. You know how the CIA operates. If we don't find them soon, they'll be gone and we'll never get them."
Sam replies, " They either had another car here or they walked out through the building. Let's head back to OSP. Maybe the wonder twins have something." And back they go.
Meanwhile, at Pacific Beach Medical hospital, Deeks has coerced the duty nurse to let him visit Kensi. They're keeping her sedated for a while for her to heal a bit. The nurse tells him what the doctors found out and it floored him, and also told him it was a blessing in disguise that they gave her so much of whatever drug they used, to the point that she was out of it when it happened. She had been repeatedly raped front and back and when he heard that, Marty Deeks left and Max Gentry showed up.
As he sits by the side of her bed, he takes her hand and begs her to come back to him and promises her that he will see to it that the people who did this to her were punished as only Max could do it. He sits there for an hour or more just looking at his princess until he gets up to find a doctor. When he finds one, he signs himself out AMA. He gets dressed and calls a cab to get to OSP.
