A Holiday Adventure Continues
This is #2 in the Holiday Adventure series. If you haven't read A Holiday Adventure, you may want to read it before this one.
Warning: There will be discipline in the form of spankings in this story. It all depends on how the "kids" behave.
This is a science fiction AU crossover of NCIS and Magnificent Seven. This story will be mainly written from the point of view of NCIS, though.

Chapter 1
Warning: There is a discussion of spanking and a few swats in this chapter.
While lying in bed that night, Gibbs contemplated the days ahead. He was unsure what this future would hold. All he knew was that he was glad that his family was with him. He was thankful that no one got left behind at the monument. Everyone was where he could keep an eye on them. He drifted off to sleep wondering what tomorrow would hold.
Gibbs' internal clock woke him up automatically at 5:00 am. He stretched and looked around hoping that all they had been through was a bad dream. When he realized it wasn't a dream, he then wondered what kind of coffee they served in the restaurant. He decided to make the best of what life handed them at this point.
He washed up from the bowl and pitcher that was on the dresser and thought, "The girls are going to have a hard time with the idea of washing up like this." He then chuckled and thought, "Heck, I think Tony will take this the hardest! I hope there is a bath house or a tub in the hotel somewhere or I may have to stomp out many complaints ahead."
Jenny began waking up around the same time as Gibbs. She got up and looked over at the two girls lying on their stomachs and thought, "They look so sweet when they are asleep." After washing up and wondering the same as Gibbs about the tub, she walked out into the hall. She ran right into Gibbs. "Going for coffee, huh?"
Gibbs nodded and said, "Let's take advantage of the quiet and go see what we can get downstairs."
They ordered coffee and began talking about the kids. "How did the girls sleep last night? Did they give you any trouble after our little 'talk'?"
"Now Gibbs, you know that they knew better than to incur your wrath so soon again. They went right to bed and slept, on their stomachs of course, all night."
Gibbs smirked and said, "Good."
Just then, Chris walked in. "Mind if I join yah? I'm guessin' you took care of your girls last night?"
"Oh, yeah." Gibbs smirked and then motioned for Chris to take a seat. He then related to Chris what the team's plans were. Chris seemed to agree with most of it. Gibbs could tell something was bothering Chris, but his gut told him to trust this man.
"What's on your mind, Chris?"
Chris said, "Yer not one to drag out the questions are yah? I like that. I am goin' ta get ta the point. You are goin' ta need ta keep a tight rein on your team. This is a rough town in the middle of nowhere and people get hurt out here all the time. I know your peacekeeper team knows what they are doin' in 2011, but this is different. I am jest warnin' you about keeping your young ones and your lady friend safe. Yah may have to ride herd on 'em while they are here. If I catch 'em doin' anything foolish like last night, I'll turn 'em over to you first. If you are not here, I'll jest turn 'em over my knee, unless you have a better suggestion."
"If I am not around and my team puts themselves in danger or is disrespectful to you in any way, you have my full permission to 'tan their hides'. If it is just foolishness, put them under house arrest in their rooms and I assure you, I'll deal with them when I return." Chris nodded once again thinking how he and this man were so much alike.
Gibbs could see Jenny's face turning red and before he could stop her, she said, "You do realize that I am sitting right here? Ride herd? What exactly do you mean? Are you telling Gibbs that I would be subject to the same punishment as the younger team members?" Chris could have sworn he heard Gibbs chuckle.
"Jen," Gibbs tried to admonish.
"Ma'am," Chris started.
"Call me Jenny." She didn't let on that everyone calls her ma'am at work, but she was the boss of this team and he was threatening to spank her too!
"Jenny, Mary and the other women here get a child's punishment in this dangerous land if they act like a child. It is one of the ways we keep 'em safe. All yah have ta do is act like the adult yah are."
Jenny was about to rebut when a lovely young woman walked in and greeted Chris. Chris and Gibbs stood and Chris said, "Mary, these are the people I was telling yah about. This is Jennifer Shepherd and Jethro Gibbs." He turned to Jenny and Gibbs and said, "This is Mary Travis." Everyone nodded.
Jenny said as she shook Mary's hand, "Call me Jenny. Jethro prefers to be called Gibbs."
"It is nice to meet you both. Chris has explained your predicament to me. I will help where I can."
"Thank you, Mary. You will have to tell me all about your work at the newspaper." Jenny smiled as she thought of helping Mary. Gibbs and Chris looked at each other knowingly. The men thought, "These two together may cause a problem later."
"The first thing we need to do is buy clothing for your time period. Mary, could you make a list of what the women need to wear? This way, the girls won't seem so lost when they shop." Gibbs knew that women in this time wore all sorts of things under their skirts. He couldn't even begin to help with that.
Mary said, "Sure, Gibbs. I'd be glad to make a list. I'll even go shopping with them."
Gibbs nodded his thanks.
Gibbs sighed and said, "Well, let's get the kids up. I have a feeling Ziva will give us trouble about the way she will have to dress. I may be tightening that rein again. By the way, where do we take baths here?"
Chris said, "We have a bath house a couple of streets down. I'd make sure your girls are chaperoned, though."
"Ok, Jen let's go break the news to Ziva."
Chris chuckled at Gibbs' last statement. "It looks like you have a chore ahead of you."
"Yeah, Yeah, but nothing I can't handle," Gibbs said sarcastically with his trademark smirk.
Jen woke the girls and Gibbs woke the boys. Ducky was already up when Gibbs walked into their room. "Well, Duck. Are you ready to go shop? I'm not."
"What is wrong, Jethro. Are you concerned about Ziva's reaction to her new attire?"
"Nothing I can't handle, Duck."
"I have no doubt, Jethro, my boy. No doubt at all."
All of a sudden, from the girls' room Gibbs and Ducky heard a very unhappy daughter. The fully dressed team had gathered in the room to see what was wrong.
"No, no, no! I am not wearing petticoats and you can't make me! You have to be kidding!" Ziva was in the middle of a tantrum when she felt three hard swats to her bottom.
She turned to see an angry Gibbs. He said, "Unless you want the full spanking, you'll cut the tantrum now! You are wearing what you are told to wear without further argument. Do I make myself clear?"
Still feeling the effects of last night's spanking, Ziva said, "Yes, Gibbs." Ziva then thought, "I'll buy it, but they can't make me wear it."
"Good. Chris said that there is a bath house in town. The girls will need to be chaperoned. I want everyone in teams of two or more at all times, anyway. Ok team, let's go shopping."
Jen looked at Ziva and whispered to Gibbs, "Jethro, that was too easy."
"I know Jen. I know. We'll see how far she pushes the issue. I am quite capable of pushing back and she won't like the outcome."
