Elf Lords and Necromancers
What happens when McGee decides to be bold and have a crazy weekend with what seems like the perfect girl? What happens when that girl turns out to be the newest probation officer at NCIS? On the same team as him no less. This is a bit different from my other story, but I hope you all will like it. Yes, this is a resubmission of the original, but still my ideas.
McGee's P.O.V
It had started like any other day at NCIS Headquarters in Washington D.C, utterly chaotic and then ending in a sort of peaceful lull, like it always did after the NCIS team finished a case. This time it was a case of a Petty Officer being accused of smuggling drugs onto the ship, when in reality, she was just trying to hide the fact that she was reading steamy novels. They did eventually catch the person dealing and smuggling the drugs onto the ship, which turned out to be the cook, who hid them as bags of sugar and flour. Creative, but not good enough to stop their team from catching him.
Everyone was getting ready to go home for a three day weekend since the building would be under repairs on Monday. Tony was raving about having tickets to go see this horror movie with this really hot chick named Jenna and how he was planning on comforting her when she got scared. He was spouting off nonsense about the actors and the work they had done in other films. He was also blathering about how this plan was sure to work since it always worked in the movies. He then proceeded to blather on about what movies it worked in when Ziva gave him a raised eyebrow and called him something rude in Hebrew. The Director and Gibbs had vanished somewhere together, which didn't surprise Tim at all. He had a sneaking suspicion that his leader and the redheaded director were closer than they let anyone realize. Ziva was ignoring Tony, like she always did and was packing up her things for her girl's only getaway. Tim was already packed up and was just shutting down his computer, ready to leave as soon as he could. He was heading to a fantasy themed convention this weekend and he was really looking forward to it. He had bought tickets months in advanced to get the discount and get it on the calendar.
Just as he was about to leave and head to his apartment to get his things ready and finalize plans, Tony and Ziva called out to him, or well, Tony did. They followed him to the elevator and Tony pushed the button to go to the lobby so they could leave. Tim didn't want to deal with him any longer than necessary, but he was stuck.
"You know, McGeek, you really should be more spontaneous and stop going to these stupid conventions every time you have time off. All you'll ever meet is crazy nerdettes and geeks. But maybe that's what you want?" Tim ignored Tony, who thought that he was God's gift to women. Ziva, surprisingly, agreed with Tony.
"Yes McGee, you should "put out" more?" Tony shook his head and told Ziva that it was "Get out" more. Tim ignored both of them. He didn't need their advice when it came to love and relationships, I mean, come on, look at their love lives.
"Guys, I like the way I do things. Now if you don't mind, I have to get home." The two of them tried to shout out advice as the computer tech agent walked to his car and drove to his apartment, breathing a sigh of relief that he finally got away from their asinine advice. He'd sooner take relationship advice from Gibbs, at least the guy was good enough to get married three times. Yeah they didn't last, but he got further than any of the rest of them.
When he got home, he put away his work things and sat down at his computer, intent to play a little bit online before he went to bed. To his surprise, he didn't seem to be as into the game as he usually was. He got killed by a minor demon in his favorite MMORPG. That meant only one thing, Tony and Ziva had gotten to him. Turning around in his chair, he leaned back and stared up at the ceiling, contemplating on their advice.
"Maybe I should be more spontaneous. Just not this weekend, I want to have fun this weekend and not have to do the "walk of shame" as Tony calls it." Sighing, Tim decided that it was time to go to bed so he could get up early and drive to the center where the convention would be in the morning. Switching off the computer, he went to his bedroom and drifted to sleep, dreaming of the convention the next day.
~The Next Morning at the Convention Center~
Tim gazed in amazement at the room packed full of people in costumes and felt a smile blossom on his face as he stepped over the threshold into the convention room. Instantly he was filled with the excitement that was brimming from the room, it nearly overflowed the room it was so abundant. There were all sorts of creatures strolling through the bright lights shining down through the skylight, looking in the booths that lined the aisles. He saw orcs, pixies, mermaids, elves, and even trolls, laughing and speaking with smiles on their faces, displaying the same excitement he felt.
Instantly, he wanted to join the laughing crowd of elves that he recognized from previous conventions, but something stopped him. He saw a flash of black and red out of the corner of his eye. Turning, he saw a girl being laughed at by a group of orcs. He could tell from the strange hat with red feathers and intricate gold and black swirls, paired with the red, black, and gold swirled wand that she was a wizard. He didn't know why she was being laughed at since wizards were an accepted, and almost expected, costume for the convention.
As he walked closer to the wizard girl, he saw that her costume was pretty intricate. Her robes fell to her knees and she wore knee high boots with black stockings. Her costume was a black base with red outlines and gold thread weaved into the red material. He had to admit that the costume was pretty intricate and well made. She even had a leather case on her hip that seemed to hold a deck of cards. Her spell cards if he had to place a guess. As he got closer to the group, he saw one of the orcs push the wizard girl. Instantly he went on high alert and rushed over to catch the girl before she fell. Her eyes were squeezed shut and she looked scared, her body trembling in his arms.
"Are you okay?"
Skye's P.O.V
The sensation of strong arms around her shoulders made Skye's eyes fly open and up to the male's face that loomed above her's. He had a worried expression on his surprisingly handsome face, his soft looking lips frowning. From where she was, Skye could see that his eyes were a lovely shade of blue. Almost the exact same shade as the glass robin she had received as a present from a boss a few years back. It took her a few moments to realize that the man, dressed as an elf lord of some kind, had spoken. Snapping out of her daze, she blinked up at him almost owlishly.
"Huh? Oh umm... Yes, I'm fine. Thank you." When the man didn't let go, Skye gently pushed at his chest and then turned to glare at the orc that had pushed her. The group was gone, but they had left a calling card. Her wand, which had been dropped when she was pushed, was smashed to pieces. It had taken her months to carve a wand that was an exact replica of the wand her character used in the game. Forgetting that she was not alone, she dropped to her knees and picked up the shattered pieces of her wand. She was careful not to hurt herself since the shards were made out of a carved branch of maple from the maple tree that grew in her childhood home's backyard. Unknowingly, a tear slipped down her cheek as she examined the painted splinters.
Unbeknownst to Skye, the Elf Lord was watching her as she picked up her broken wand and place it into a leather pouch she had at her hip, tears just silently running down her face. When she felt a hand on her shoulder, she jumped slightly and looked up to the man who stood close to her. He leaned down and offered her a handkerchief to wipe her eyes, which she did and handed back to him. She didn't even know that men still carried handkerchiefs anymore. He gave her a gentle smile that sent her heart racing. One thing Skye knew for certain, this convention just got a lot more interesting.
I hope you all are enjoying the story. I understand that it's different from my last story and has a bit more detail than the original, but please RXR! No flames and I own no one except the little wizard girl and the idiots. If you're good then I will post another chapter. :D
