Chapter One
NPOV
I hit the floor and watched as Tyla pushed Morgan into the bedroom telling her to lock the door before passing out.
TPOV
I had to protect Morgan and I would do that with my life. Micheal was coming torwards me; he stunk of beer and sweat and all I knew was protect my head. His fist came straight towards me and I felt it connect with my face before I could do anything to help myself. I just took the beating and once he got tired and walked away muttering I grabbed Nicholes arms and dragged her into the bedroom. Once I made sure the door was locked and secure I sat on the floor and passed out against the wall.
MPOV
They were both beaten up again over something I did, but I couldn't protect any of us and being the youngest they would let me to begin with. I was the protected one while they took the physical abuse; though we all took the mental abuse together. I took it better then either Nikki or Ty did. Nikki had a self harm problem and being 16 she was the oldest and first to stand up for either of us. Though Ty wasn't too far behind. She has an eatting disorder too though and we couldn't do anything until we ran. So each day once Micheal passed out cold from a drunken stupor we took a little food and money and added it to our stash. We were almost ready to run back to NCIS and Ducky. He could help us. He would know how to help us and maybe he could then take us in.
If only our parents hadn't died in that car bomb two years ago and leaving us all behind. Ducky couldn't stop what happened to us and the caseworker was just being payed off to leave us here.
"MMMMMM..." I heard Nikki make a noise an glanced over to see her holind her face and beginning to sit up. "Did he kick me after I passed out?" she questioned grabbing her side as well and scooching up against the wall.
"I don't know Ty had me stay in here" I replied and glanced over at Ty while I said it thinking of the noises I had heard through the wall.
"How long?"
"About an hour" I said and then I saw Ty's eyes flicker. "Ty?"
"Yeah Morg?"
"You ok?"
"Yeah no worse then normal" she replied laying on her back. "How much longer until we can leave?" she asked.
"We have $553.64 and a good amount of food stored" I told her.
"So I think we can get ready to leave in the next day or two" Nikki said thinking.
"We are going to need to either take a bus back to DC or are going to need a plane, but I think we can afford a bus much better then a plane" Ty said and I watched as they talked it all out.
TPOV
It was planned tomorrow we would skip school and go to the bus station buy three tickets for the same day to DC and get to NCIS using a cab after that and hope that we could get help from there. "Alright lets get some sleep, so we can leave early tomorrow" I said before crawling to my blankets in the corner of the room because Morgan had the only bed.
"Night" they said and I just closed my eyes before falling asleep.
The next morning I was the last to get up and get ready. We left at 7 on the dot and walked about a half hour before getting to the station. We had an hour wait before our bus would be here and we would get to DC at about 5pm. NCIS at about an hour after that.
NPOV
I was on the outside seat, Ty had the middle and Nikki had the window seat. It was a quiet ride and when we got to DC we got some looks because of our bruises and Ty's skinnyness. We got a cab and gave them the address to NCIS and just sat back. We pulled up outside and just looked at the building for a second before walking in. Ty and I kept our heads down while Morgan talked to the guard about visitors passes. The guy gave us the same ones we had the last time we were there and let us off on our own. "Nikki?" Morgan said with tears in her eyes.
"I know baby" I said before looking at the floors as we went up to the squad room.
GPOV
The elevator dinged just as I was walking back into the squadroom and watched as three girls that looked a lot like mine and the teams kids walk out of the elevator. Two looked pretty beat up, one very shy, one had scars all over her arms, and was so skinny she was unhealthy looking. Then I heard one ask "Why are we here Ty?" it was the smallest with black hair and fair skin.
"Because we are going to try and get to the inside elevator with out being talked to Morg" the girl said then continued "Nikki we have a watcher" she said and then glanced up. The girl was black and blue, but had brown hair and jet green eyes even if she was extremly skinny. She looked just like Tyla, Ziva and Tonys kid.
"Ty am I imagining this?" The girl Nikki said and she had red hair and blue eyes plus the bruising and scars, just like mine and Jens kid.
"If you are then I am too Nikki" the youngest said and she looked just like Abbys and Tims kid, Morgan.
"Lets go guys. We don't need to add halucinations to the list of problems" The red head said and they all walked off. Well more like ran. I shook my head and walked into the bullpen slapping Tonys head while I did.
TPOV
That was weird like extremly weird. I just didn't want to think about it and so we just ran to Duckys autopsy without looking back. Once we got in there Ducky turned around saying that we must have the wrong place. "Ducky its Morgan, Nichole and Tyla. Don't you recognize us?" I said to him.
"Oh girls you guys look..."
"Don't finish that sentence" Nikki said and he just shut his mouth.
"What happened to you guys?" he asked.
"Foster father was an abusive drunk" Morgan said "Ty has an eatting disorder and Nikki has a self ahrm problem" she said quickly.
"MORGAN!" Nikki and I yelled.
"I could already see that Morgan dear, but have you talked to your parents yet?"
"No they're dead" I said to him.
"No come on my dears lets go upstairs." he said and led us all up while calling for the team to get assembled. We rode the elevator up and then followed him. I stopped around the corner from the bullpen and watched as Morgan and Nichole walked on.
ZPOV
"Guys" Ducky said walking into the bullpen with two girls behind him.
"Yes Duck?" Gibbs said back.
"I beleive some girls would like to say hi to their parents" he said and stepped away. In front of us stood Nichole and Morgan.
"OH MY GOD!" Jen and Abby said running to their kids with Gibbs and McGee not to far behind. I stod over with Tony and watched the two families reunite.
DPOV
I watched them team reunite with their girls, but saw ZIva and Tony stood near each other and noticed that Tyla wasn't over by them. I walked back around the corner and saw her hiding. "Whats wrong my dear?" I asked.
"I'm not worth them" she said backing away.
"Why not?"
"Because I'm trash" she answered moving further from the bullpen and hiding in the alcove. I walked back into the bullpen and grabbed ZIva and Tony. They protested at first, but followed me and once they saw Tyla they ran and hugged her. That was until she freaked. "NO!" she yelled before taking off.
"What did you do?" the other two girls said coming around the corner.
GPOV
"We hugged her" Ziva said.
"Shit" both girls said looking at each other. "Bad idea" Nikki said while Morgan took off after her.
"Why?" I asked.
"Because Micheal liked her" she said shuddering.
"What do you mean dear?"
"He would normally go after me first to disable me then knowing that we wouldn't let Morg get hurt being the youngest. He would go after Ty and he did some horrible disgusting things to her" she said not saying what actually happened.
"What do you mean?" I asked again.
"Tyla can be the only one to tell you" she said "Never told us the whole truth." she finished before walking off.
"Those girls are scarred both mentally and physically" Ducky said.
MPOV
I took off after Tyla knowing that she was headed to the bathroom. When I walked in I heard vomiting and then heard sobbing. "Ty?"
"Go away Morgan"
"Come here" I said and she did. She came out and I openned my arms to her for a hug before sitting down on the floor of the bathroom. When Nikki came in she joined the hug.
"Ty you are safe" she whispered. "They are your family and would do anything not to hurt you" she said.
"Th-they are -g-going to -w-want to kn-ow w-why" she sobbed.
"They can help you" I said and she nodded and then we just waited for her sobs to go away.
"Better?"
"Yeah" she said sniffling. Then she got up and washed her face only to run back to the toilet and throwing up again. "I think I need to tell you all the truth" she whispered before walking out of the bathroom.
"What did she mean by that?" I asked.
"I wish I knew" Nikki said back to me.
