"So you understand this remains strictly between the three of us." SecNav Jarvis said.
Director Vance and Gibbs stood in front of the big screen in MTAC. Jarvis spoke to them from his office at Quantico. Recently a disgruntled agent who had been terminated as the result of budget cuts and negative performance reviews had leaked vital information to a terrorist organization. That put the whole agency in grave danger. The three men had been working for the past month to stop the terrorists plan to bomb every NCIS HQ.
"Who's that?" Jarvis asked eyeing the corner.
Gibbs and Vance turned around and saw a wide eyed Palmer standing in the corner. A cart of janitor equipment in front of him.
"Palmer!" Gibbs hissed.
"Oh sorry I uh I…" Jimmy stammered.
"James Palmer?" Jarvis asked.
"Uh yes sir." Jimmy replied nervously.
"As I recall we hired you as an Assistant to Dr. Mallard in Autopsy." Jarvis replied.
"Uh yes sir we I mean you I mean they did." Jimmy replied.
"Why are you doing janitorial work then?" Jarvis demanded.
"Well my wife and I are trying to get pregnant and…" Jimmy replied.
"What does that have to do with anything?" Jarvis demanded.
"I offered Jimmy a part time janitor job so that he could earn some extra cash. Since he and his wife are trying to start a family and once she gets pregnant she'll have to quit her embalming job." Vance explained.
"He still heard sensitive material." Jarvis replied.
"I am aware." Vance replied.
"Leon call me so we can discuss how to proceed with this incident." Vance replied.
Vance nodded and left MTAC for his office. Gibbs grabbed Jimmy by his collar and drug him towards the elevator. Once inside Gibbs released Jimmy and pulled the lever down in a frustrated manner.
"What the hell were you doing in there?" Gibbs demanded.
"I was cleaning in there." Jimmy replied.
"How the hell did you even get in there?! Only the head janitor has clearance to get in there!" Gibbs demanded.
"Well uh he asked me to help him with the cart so I did but then you and the director came in and he left." Jimmy replied.
"Why the hell didn't you leave too?!" Gibbs ordered.
"I just I was curious about what happened in MTAC and thought if I was real quiet and pretended like I was supposed to be there. I could see. Wh…What it was like. I really want to be an agent." Jimmy replied.
"Well this may be the stupidest thing you've ever done. I'm going to talk to Vance. With any luck the three of us still have jobs." Gibbs growled.
"Yes Clayton I understand. Bye." Vance said just as Gibbs entered his office.
"Leon?" Gibbs asked. The way Vance looked at him as he turned around he knew it was going to be bad.
"As you are aware Jimmy overheard information that if leaked could devastate the entire agency." Vance replied.
"Yeah and?" Gibbs ordered
"I'm afraid Jimmy Palmer has to be eliminated." Vance replied.
"Eliminated?" Gibbs asked.
"Jethro you know what that means Jethro." Vance replied.
"We have to kill him." Gibbs replied eyes downcast.
A/N: This is going to be a simple two-shot. The next chapter will be posted whenever I can get it out and be much longer and have the er action. I am not sure if anything like this would happen in real life or on the show but it happened in my dream so I wrote it.
