A/N: This is my first time posting a fanfic, so please be will be plenty of grammar mistakes, given that I turned this in without proofreading it thoroughly. If I had then it would have never been posted.

The idea for this story literally came from a dream that I had, so it may be somewhat awkward. It is mostly the dialogue that makes it difficult, because I think up the whole story in my head, and never write it down so its no longer perfect when it gets to paper. I would never have believed that my first posting would be a IY/NCIS crossover because they don't really seem to mesh.

I was inspired by RainLily13's "Reality and Truth", and this is what I thought up when she mentioned writing up a Gibbs/Kagome pairing. I cannot wait to see how her two new IY/NCIS stories develop.

Oh yeah, Gibbs is going to be a little out of character in this chapter, mainly because he is only about 19 years old. And if you are curious Kagome is 4 years old.

Prologue: A Time Before

"Gibbs, Gibbs! C'mon, hurry up," he smiled down at the little girl who was forcefully tugging on his hand, "if you don't hurry up I wont show you my secret". She wasn't more then four years of age, and yet here she was giving him, a full grown man orders!

Suddenly she stopped all together, she looked up at him with her crystal blue eyes frowning at him " you gotta promise me something, okay Gibbs? You hafta promise, or I wont show it to you, 'kay?" Gibbs just looked at her thoroughly amused by her antics. He crouched down in front of her ruffling her hair in a playful manner; as she fixed her hair he looked her squarely in the eyes and said "I promise, and you know what they say about Marines and promises, they-"

"-never break them." They both finished simultaneously, grinning at each other.

"Good," she gave him a cheeky smile "but you should find out what you are promising before you agree." Sometimes this little girl was much too sly for her own good. Okay... So what is it that I am promising you, you sly little fox?"

She skipped ahead giggling, "What I am going to show you is the biggest bestest secret ever, and you just promised to never ever tell anyone!"

"Never ever?"

She considered this seriously for a moment, "Okay.... Maybe not never ever. If Gibbs gets married, then Gibbs can only bring family here. Oh! Oh! And .. and if you need to find me, only then can you tell, 'Kay?"

"Alright then, kid you got yourself a deal."

"What have we got,Duck?" Gibbs said as he knelt down besides him to examine the bodies lying on the grounds.

"Well Jethro it seems that these two fellows had the misfortune of trying to hold up retired Master Sergeant Zachary Taylor, 53. From the looks of it this man here," Ducky gestured to the first man "Caucasian male, mid 30s to early 40s, was shot first in the shoulder and again a few minutes later if the blood stains are any indication. The second gunman also Caucasian, and about the same approximate age was killed from a single gunshot wound to the head. And if facial markers are any indication these two men were brothers; you know Jethro this reminds of the time -"

Gibbs cleared his throat loudly, as he glanced up from his notepad. "And the Master Sergeant, Ducky?"

"Ah, yes. The Master Sergeant is on his way to the naval hospital with a gunshot wound to the abdomen. That man was lucky there was someone here to staunch his wound, there is a good chance he will still make it. But... the thing is Jethro..." Ducky trailed off, a definite look of worry on his face.

"What is it Duck?" Gibbs sighed impatiently almost dreading the news.

"As they were loading him onto the ambulance... It may have been the rambling of a man who has lost a lot of blood... but... he kept mentioning something about 'the kids' and 'having to make sure that they were safe'."

" You mean to tell me that we could have a possible kidnapping? Dinozzo!" The last part was shouted. "Yea, Boss" he said as sprinted across the crime scene. "In the car, was there any evidence of there being kids in the car at the time of the shooting?"

"No, the local LEOs didn't find any evidence in the car, and the Master Sergeant and his wife do not have any children. But the witness, Mitchell Baxter, 23 did claim that a woman was here on scene before he arrived" Dinozzo replied taking a look at his own notepad for confirmation. "He said and I quote 'There was this absolutely stunning Asian woman using her jacket to stop the man's bleeding' and when he offered help she told him to take her place because she had to find her kids. And she ran off towards those rocks over there" he pointed in the general direction of the bluffs. "And the local LEOs confirm that the person to call in the incident was indeed female."

"Dammit! So he just let her walk off without any identification-"

"Sorry to interrupt Boss, the witness did say he would have let her go without it, but the woman did leave a D.C. ID with him to give to the cops when they arrived." Dinozzo held up the said identification card in an evidence bag.

Gibbs grabbed the bag from his hands to look at the name and face on the card, it read: 'Name:Kagome Higurashi, DOB: 06/20/1974'

it also listed her address, but what caught his attention was the startling pair of familiar blue eyes. Then he remembered.

".... promise me something, okay Gibbs?..."

He pushed the bag back into Dinozzo's chest, "McGee! Stay here and process the crime scene. You two!" he pointed at tony and Ziva "come with me". Before any of them could give a proper response Gibbs took off in the directions the witness had pointed.

Tony, Ziva and McGee looked at each other for a quick moment before scrambling to exactly what had been ordered of them.

A little shorter then I had planned, but this is only the prologue.

How was it? Not too bad I hope. I am willing to accept any criticisms you readers may have, but please go easy on a first time poster.

A/N: I noticed that the spacers that I but in didn't show up so I replaced them with cryptograms. They are just some of my thoughts on the show, but I thought I would give readers something interesting to do. I will make different cryptograms every chapter topics will vary. =P

I am such a geek some times. Here are some clues if you liked to try solving them, since it is a substitution cipher you just replace one letter with another letter from the alphabet. I will give you two clues seeing as I didn't use that many different letters.

Y is equal to B

A is equal to F
