Escape Now or Leave Never

He can hear his heart beat faster and faster by each second passing as Timothy McGee sits impatiently and extremely still like statue in NCIS' interrogation room. He has been sitting there for more than ten minutes now and it's driving him insane. He still thinking how all this happened. His mind was wandering around until an unexpected agent opened the door, revealing light from the other side and two guards waiting outside incase anything happens. This agent's name is Gretah Zapata. A young woman in her mid-twenties, short blonde hair with gray eyes. Her face seems innocent and harmless… Those are the ones you have to watch for. One minute they are the sweetest thing in the universe, but once they turned their heads towards you, they can make your life a living hell. Sadly, that is what happened to our Timothy. His life was perfect until she came; until the team worked on that case which ruined everything. Zapata snapped Timothy in his train of thought when she asked the same question twice, in which Timothy keeps replying with the same answer.

"Huh? Uh, I told you already. I don't know where she is."

"How could you not Mr. McGee? You were the last one to have contact with her, so it will be useless to refresh your memory."

"Special agent McGee…"

Zapata smirks at his silly little comeback. "You no longer work for NCIS, EX Special agent McGee. Now answer so we can get this over with. Where is Angelica Puentes?"

"You really need to get rid of that ear condom. I told you already I-don't-know!" He told her while he slammed his fist at the table. He then waved his fist. I hit it too hard. He continues his rant, "she could be lying dead and you people wouldn't find out if you keep wasting your damn time asking me things I already answered!"

He is acting just like him, so ignorant, Zapata thought. Giving him an evil glare, Zapata tells him "calm yourself, McGee. You do know. So, seriously stop wasting my time and tell me already. Your GAME IS OVER. GIVE UP already, sheesh!"

McGee was tired of this crazy agent and felt that he was wasting all his precious energy to a moron. It's not like is new stuff. He never understood Gretah and it looks like he never will from where he's standing-err sitting. She seemed to him as a mysterious, immature, and partly insane woman. Apparently the (elite) team is too gullible to notice. What a terrible mistake.

"Gahh! You people are idiots! How the hell you get a job here at NCIS?" Surely a mind like that couldn't pass a psych evaluation. Or is he wrong?

Annoyed with his unnecessary comebacks, Zapata with her calm voice replies a chest stabbing reply "maybe this would've never if you slept with a fourteen year old!" She had to hold back a smile. She knows this would throw his to the edge (and not the edge of glory).

Indeed it felt like a stab wound on his chest. McGee started to feel like a fish out of water. He breathed sharply. She has no right to say that. Well, she does. But she doesn't know the full story. Zapata basically called his a pedophile-only he kind of is. And now, Tim let his anger take the best of him.

"Screw you! I don't know why you hate me, but I guess that doesn't matter since I hate you too. Yet, I'm tired of you. Your face, voice, everything. You are insane. Yeah, yeah. YOU hear me! Insane biiiiiiittttchhhh!" Tim yelled with all his might. He then sat down and waited for her expression.

It took Gretah's every ounce of energy to maintain her calm and most importantly her poker face. Which I tell you by now, is not an easy task. McGee was staring at her and although she took a deep breath, she didn't even flinch. Yet, she was getting tired of McGee and a specific Senior Agent can tell. That (jerkoid) agent is Anthony DiNozzo. He noticed the situation was getting a bit out of hand, so he decided to crash in. He was already mad that his so called "Probie" wouldn't be willing to help his team find Angelica Puentes. His team who he has worked together over seven years. His team who has been there for him when he needed them and a damn fourteen year old had to change everything. He always thought that fourteen year old had something odd. Didn't look or even acted like a fourteen year old… Once he exits the other room where he can see the whole interrogation but they can't see him, he thinks (actually plans) to throw McGee all kinds of insults. He opens the door, only to reveal the sight of Zapata and McGee ready to kill each other.

"I think I'll take it from here, Agent Zapata", says DiNozzo in his usual but serious Tony-Tone.

Gretah stares at him with her fierce gray eyes, which frightens the senior agent a bit. Still, she slowly stands up and walks up to him. She whispers to his ear, "He won't talk. This scum bag should know better, Special agent DiNozzo. But, I'll do as you wish." With that said, she leaves the interrogation room and watches from the glass. "This better be good", she thought out loud. This woman can be, like so empty!

DiNozzo sets his folder on the table and sits down. McGee just stares at his blankly with those big green eyes and still manages to keep that sparkle on his them. Seriously, seeing this man with that sad look and that puppy face can really break your heart. Timothy then says something out of place.

"Nice tie." DiNozzo looks at his tie. It had Betty Boo faces all over it.

"Thanks, it was gift from a friend. Nice beard", he replied.

McGee had a long black beard, long enough to make a small ponytail. His total appearance has changed after he started being on the run. His hair was black, originally had brown contacts and he's so pale, he can blend with snow. "Touché", Tim replies.

The room grows silent as DiNozzo opens the folder and places pictures of Angelica having a great time at a pool and many more. Angelica Puentes is the missing fourteen year old NCIS is desperate to catch, if you haven't noticed. Her father, Petty Officer Harold Puentes, was killed right after he dropped his daughter to her school; just when he opened her the door. At first, NCIS wanted to protect Angelica in case someone was after the Puentes. But now, Angelica was their main suspect, or at least answers to their questions like 'who was after Harold'. She is in more trouble than that. Why? It took an NCIS Special Agent to have sex with her. Mm mm mmmm. DiNozzo coughs a bit, causing to break the silence.

"She's really pretty, Tim", DiNozzo started to say. Tim gulps hard. He knows where this is going.

"You know, Puentes… Puentes looks like she can be your younger sister", he started to laugh nervously," MUCH younger than Sarah." Tim eyes started to be filled with tears, but Tony still continues. "And you know that very well, don't cha Timmy?" Tony finishes the sentence as if he was speaking to a naughty five year old. Suddenly, tears started to fall on Timothy's face. He never felt this terrible in his life. He only had one name to blame. Gretah Zapata. A name he curses every day and may be until he dies. What used to be his co-worker/best friend made him feel so small.

DiNozzo started to get impatient and went closer to yell at his ex-partner's face, "look at the damn picture and answer my question you sick bastard!" Tim is still quiet. "Now or Never!"

Never, Tim thought. "Tony…" Tim said as he finally spoke.

"Don't 'Tony' me! You know very well what you did. God, you were a damned federal agent, Tim! Hell maybe one of the best I've ever known!" He calmed down and softly said," Boy, I bet her baby-ish skin is irresistible for you, eh?"

McGee stared at him wide eyed. He actually felt offended. "CURSE YOU!" McGee yells at Tony.

"Your disgusting face says it all, son of a bitch."

"You know I'll never harm a child. You know!" Tim says as he sniffs.

"Oh but you think you can screw one, eh Tim? What a nice pair of balls. Really. They are basketball sized!" DiNozzo was furious.

This was a battle he never had with Tony in a long time. "It's not what you think. Please Tony, please understands me." DiNozzo calms down a bit. He claps his hands together. "For the last time, where is Angelica Puentes?" McGee wipes his tears and responds "I really wish I could tell you… b-bu-but I can't."

Tony rolls his eyes. "Why is that?"

"Because I don't know myself" he finishes looking at Tony with a puppy face.

He didn't buy it.

Tony had it, so he slammed his hand on the table and called the guards. "That's it! Take him away." He says as he shoos him with his hand.

"No… No Tony! Tony please! Wait! TONYYYYY!" Tim was screaming and crying like a little girl as the guards were trying to hold him.

Tony wouldn't look at him in the eye. So much guilt. It's my job, he thought.

Behind the glass, was Zapata laughing her ass off. "Ahh. Lower than dirt. I hope you enjoy prison. Ha ha, my job here is do-uh-uh-one!" Zapata then shivers. She suddenly realized she is not alone.

She was right.

As she slowly turned around, she sees (new) Special Agent David, still holding the door knob, jaw dropped and shocked at what this crazy hottie just said. "UHhhh.. Y-you?"

"Hello, Ziva. Nice to see you on short noticed." Zapata said sarcastically.

"What in the planet you just said?"

"Um, world. What in the world I just said, Ziva. To be honest, you DON'T want to know…" Zapata was trying to reach her pocket knife. Not now! Way too early… Apparently she isn't the only one trying to be sleuth.

"You know, Agent Zapata. I'm not that surprised now" Ziva said coldly as she reaches for her own pocket knife also.

I'm screwed, Gretah said in her mind. "Don't even try Ziva", she warned. She sees Ziva stepping closer by the second. "Stop!" she said as both threw their knifes at each other.
