Author's Note. I do not own NCIS. Belisarius Productions and CBS has the distinction, I Believe.


McGee stared intently at his computer screen. Ziva stared intently at her computer screen. DiNozzo stared intently at the ceiling. The only noise was that of the air conditioner, the clacking of keyboards and the occasional scurrying of a junior agent on some important errand.

"What do you think Gibbs will say when he catches you slacking off again?" McGee said, his eyes still focused on his monitor.

"Yes it would be nice if you pitched in once in a while." Ziva added.

"Rank hath its privileges." DiNozzo said matter-of-factly.

"And what is that supposed to mean? Ziva said, a touch of anger in her voice.

"It means that as senior field agent, I get to delegate grunt work to probies." DiNozzo said.

Ziva stopped and looked icily at the DiNozzo. "As senior field agent, shouldn't you be setting an example for us poor pathetic probies?

DiNozzo sighed in exasperation. "Hey it's not like somebody found a dead body." he said.

The moment that sentence was finished Gibbs walked in with a cup of coffee in his hand and said, "Somebody found a dead body."

DiNozzo nearly fell out of his chair standing up. McGee could not suppress a smirk.

"Do you find dead bodies funny, McGee?" Gibbs asked.

"Uh, no Boss." McGee said.

Gibbs turned, intending to head out to his car, when he stopped in front of Ziva's desk.

"Where is Ziva?" he asked.

Ziva looked at Gibbs and said, "I'm right here, boss"

Gibbs looked surprised and said "Is this a joke?"

DiNozzo walked over and said, "No Boss Ziva's right in front ... of... " his voice trailed off as his eyes went to what Gibbs was looking at.

Ziva was beginning to feel uncomfortable. She looked from Gibbs to DiNozzo to McGee. All three were staring at her in disbelief.

"What?" she said.

"Ziva," McGee said, "You're a rabbit."

"That is not funny" Ziva said.

"No it isn't" Gibbs said as he turned off Ziva's computer monitor, letting her see her reflection in it. She had indeed turned into a rabbit.

"What is going on?" Ziva asked.

"That's what I would like to know" Gibbs said and he turned to DiNozzo and McGee. DiNozzo just stared dumbly at Ziva the rabbit. McGee opened his mouth but no words came to his lips.
