New in town
Chapter 1 –Nothing is as it seems
It was 6:00 am in the office. It was a typical morning. McGee was on his computer playing addictive games that only McGee would like. Tony was sleeping or 'meditating' as he called it and Gibbs was no-where to be seen. Ziva was also missing, very unlike her. Usually, she would be right on time to work, teasing Tony on how he should have actually have a bath from time to time. Ziva has been disappearing every morning for the past couple of months. The team became not only suspicious of their dear friend's whereabouts, but also curious and concerned.
Gibbs stormed into the room, a slight beard showing. McGee closed his game. Gibbs scratched his chin and looked around. His sight immediately caught sight of Tony. Gibbs gave him a hard head slap. Tony suddenly straightened up.
"Morning boss." Tony said in a daze.
"Ziva here yet?" Gibbs said while walking to his desk.
"Not yet boss," Tony replied while sitting back in his chair.
Just then, Fornell exited through the elevated.
"Gibbs we gotta talk," Fornell stated. He looked around frantically as if to make sure a certain someone was not there," Now."
"Usual meeting place I'm guessing," Gibbs said while heading to the elevator. It opened. Ziva was inside. She had her usual brown back pack but she also had a black bag.
"I'll talk to you later," Gibbs whispered to Ziva while they brushed past each other. Agent Fornell gave Ziva the evil eye.
Ziva dropped her bags on her desk and checked her cell for any messages. There was only one. It said 'You will be prepared. Gabs xxx'. Ziva bit her bottom lip.
"So where were you this morning." Tony said while walking up to her desk. McGee followed him. They leaned on the desk in front of Ziva. Ziva didn't answer, as usual. She just looked in her back pack. McGee's eyes wondered to the black bag.
"What's in the bag?" McGee asked.
Gibbs and Fornell were in the elevator. Gibbs stopped it. Fornell was the first to speak.
"I'm guessing that Director Sheppard told you about the new criminal psychologist that's coming in today," he said.
"Yeah, she said that she'll only be here for a short time, why?" Gibbs answered suspiciously.
"Let me tell you something about this criminal psychologist," Fornell said, just before whispering in Gibbs' ears ," Nothing is as it seems,"
Fornell restarted the elevator. It opened. He left. The doors closed. Gibbs pressed the button of the level his team were on.
"What's in the bag Ziva?" McGee repeated.
"None of your damn business McGee," Ziva said while stuffing her black bag under her desk where her co-workers couldn't get to it.
Gibbs emerged swiftly from the elevator and shouted, "Ziva, Tony, McGee! A new criminal psychologist is going to be working for us for a short period of time. Director Sheppard should be bringing him down right now."
"I think it might actually be a she boss," Tony said in amazement while staring at the balcony. The Director came down the stair. Behind her was a teenage girl. She couldn't have been more than sixteen years old. She wore jeans, trainers and an opened jacket made of cotton which uncovered a black T-shirt. She also wore a purple scarf. She had her hazelnut hair in a pony-tail. She had a very pale face and enchanting emerald green eyes.
"Team," Director Sheppard, "This is Dr. Gabriella Ghizari."
Gabriella held her hand behind her back and stood in a position that a soldier would usually address his commanding officer in.
"It's a pleasure to meet you all." She said.
