Summary: Some times, things in your past have a way of coming back…. For gibbs, the person he hates the most had one last little secret…

Beloved Princess

The morning was great. Everything was going perfect, Tony was on time, McGee was out for the day, so no annoying probies, and now there was a hot 19 year old sitting at his desk…. Tony froze, staring at her. Slightly wavy black hair, softly tan skin, and deep brown eyes. "Can I help you?"

"…I am looking for Gibbs?"

"Uh, he'll be in soon… may I?"

"Oh, this is your desk?" She stood up , and Tony's eyes couldn't help but stare her up and down. Slightly built, very long longs, wearing a very nice pair of jeans and a halter top. The ragged back pack she needed to get rid of. "Can I sit..?' she pointed out the desk across from him. Ziva was due in any moment. "Or..?"

"Yeah, use that one," he smiled as charmingly as possible. "So Uh, you are…."

"Sarah."

"Okay, pretty name." Bing. Tony went to the elevator, happy to block the way of Ziva. "Good Morning. I have a question for you."

"What?" The Mussad officer stared at him.

"So Would you happen to know a girl, I say, about 19, very pretty? Goes by the name of.."

"Hello Ziva," Ziva's eyes widened and looked over Tony's shoulder. "How are you?"

"What are you doing here?" Thje anger that flashed on her face made Tony back away quickly. "Did I not say that you had to wait until you are old enough?"

"I believe I am old enough. I am 19 and I need to do this."

"Do what? Who said you could?"

"Grandftaher…"

"AYIE! Sarah, this is not the time… Please, I will call him nad talk. Stay right here." Ziva pulled out her cell phone, very unhappy. Tony looked at Sarah, confused.

"What did you do?"

"I left home."

"Right. So uh, Sarah? Why do you need to talk to Gibbs?"

"Who needs to talk to me?" They both turned around to see the older officer staring at them before moving past them.

"Boss this is Sarah. She wants to talk with you."

"Hello, you are Gibbs?"

"Yes. What do you want?"

"She wants nothing." Ziva appeared behind the girl. Sarah looked around. "You can not do this."

"Do what?" Gibbs was getting frustrated. Sarah looked familiar, and not in a good way. Her eyes were just tilted in a way that made him remember someone very unpleasant.

"I just want to talk to him."

"NO!" Ziva's eyes made Gibbs stand her eyes were almost maternal.

"What is it?" Gibbs calmed himself. "What does she have to say that is so damn important enough for you to stop her?"

"….She is…."

"Hello Gibbs, my name is Sarah. And I would like it if you went through this," she handed Gibbs an old book. She smiled at him and walked away. "If you would like to talk, I'll be waiting."

"Gibbs, please do not look through that," Ziva tried to take away the book but gibbs held tight.

"She gave it to me. I'll look through it." Gibbs sat down, and flipped the frist page. In it was a letter.

'To My Dearest Sarah,

Hello my little princess. How are you? Today you have just come into this world. I am so happy to see you finally. The stranger in her mother's belly is now looking at the world for the first time. How wonderful it must seem. I promise I will change the world for you. Our world is still under great threat. I can't wait to show you your Aunt Ziva and Tali. They are so excited for you to come. Ziva is going through training right now. She is my favorite little sister…" Gibbs looked up, without finishing the rest of the letter. He flipped to the next page. Pictures of a face he hated spread everywhere. In each picture, there was a baby in his arms. A small little girl with the same eyes. Gibbs stood up. And slammed the book down.

"Gibbs I tried…." Ziva was unsure of how to start to explain. Gibbs just left, taking his coat.

"Who is she..?" Tony asked.

"She is my niece. Ari's only child."
