She knows he is following her, but there is nothing she can do about it. Her daughter needs to get to safety.
Her name is Kendall Reagan; she was a metro cop, so why is she being chased like a common criminal? This man wants her daughter, he wants her so he can hurt her father, and she knows what she has to do. She runs into the 24 hour diner she knows the man Gibbs goes to, she has seen him come in for coffee at 7 am every morning for the last week. Its 6:55 she takes her daughter in and sits her at a booth, she tells her to wait for the man she showed her in the picture to come, introduce herself politely and give him her badge, she leaves the picture so her daughter can be sure, she has to leave her now, they both start crying, she tells her to be a brave little girl and if she is she can see her daddy.
Kendall knows she lost him for long enough for her to slip here but she has to leave before he turns up or it will have been a waste. Kendall walks up to the counter, she looks at the friendly waitress.
"What can I get you? Hun" The waitress asks,
Kendall points to her daughter "I need you to call this number and say that a kid has been abandoned here"
"I Ca…" The waitress tries to protest but Kendall cuts her off.
"You need to do this for me, there is a very horrible man after my daughter, she needs to get to safety and the only way she can is if I lead him away, Just ring the number, tell him he is the only one who she will go with and tell him that if she doesn't his team is in danger" Kendall turned and walked out the door, the waitress watched as she walked out of sight.
Kendall couldn't bring herself to look back at her beautiful, intelligent daughter, she knew if she did she wouldn't be able to face what was about to happen.
After she was a couple of blocks away from the diner, her footsteps slowed, her breathing calmed and she could hear him behind her, she turned and faced him when he was just a few feet away from her. She looked at her watch it was 7:18am if Gibbs wasn't there by now, he would be soon, She saw the gun and closed her eyes, she wanted to look peaceful, Then she felt nothing.
