Hey everyone. It's me, theaterinspired, again with another story! And for the first time, it's not only the first time I've written a second fanfiction for the same show/book/whatever-else-you-want-to-call-it, but also the first time that I have ever written a sequel. YAY! The first story was DEAR ABBY and now we have the sequel DEAR ABBY: KIFIST IS BACK! If you are an old reader who has read DEAR ABBY, thanks for joining me again. And if you are a new reader who hasn't read the first part DON'T WORRY! Since it's been a year (wow) since the first story, I am going to do some recapping so hang in there. Um…. What am I forgetting to tell you?... OH!.. This is started in memory of some of my friends that were used for characters in the first story that won't be in school with me anymore. No, silly, I'm not about to tell you who, that would make some of my plot obvious. But you will see at the end if not sooner ;) And I do not own NCIS, but whoever does own it, you are awesome :D And now let us join our favorite forensic goth, Abby, in another tale.

Ps: review when you finish this chapter. YES YOU!

NCIS

Abby sat in her lab, rotating slowly in her chair. Things once again had become very slow at NCIS with no warning, but that was no reason for complaint. And nothing to do meant that there was a peace in the military, even if it was temporary.

The Goth forensic scientist slowly increased the speed of her spins. Faster and faster she spun until her movements seemed to match her heavy metal music. The room moved around her, blending the colors of the room so that one image seemed to combine into another.

", I don't believe government property was meant to be a play thing" a voice said from behind her… in front of her… behind her… in front of her. Abby let her pigtails slap her on the face as she suddenly stopped spinning with the owner of the voice was behind her. She grimaced quickly before addressing her boss and turning around, "No, Director Vance, of course not."

Vance was smiling, seeming somewhat amused at the whole situation. Abby and the director stared at each other for a little bit. Abby wasn't sure how to read Vance, he was like a top secret book covered with secret codes. She waited for him to make the first move but to no avail.

Abby bounced up from her seat, "What can I do for you today, mister director sir?" She thought it was best to be her best at the moment after being caught playing while on the pay roll.

Vance started to walk slowly around the lab as he talked, ", four years ago when you were working for Director Sheppard you took part in a letter writing program between NCIS and some of the local schools. You were specifically assigned to a junior high?"

Abby gulped remembering that time in the past, "Yes sir."

Vance nodded and continued but now with an edge of hostility, "And you and a group of NCIS agents went to visit the school. I was able to follow the reports that far. What I am not able to uncover is how you got involved with something called Kifist. Do you remember how that happened?"

Abby's eyes grew to the size of Petri dishes. She remembered it all too well even though it was four years in the past. But everyone at NCIS involved with that matter had agreed that it was best to keep everything to themselves to protect the children that had been involved.

Abby and team Gibbs with Ducky, Palmer and the now dead director Jenny Sheppard had all been at the school when two of the children had gone missing soon following their father's death. The group of kids that were friends with the two that were missing were very smart and had played mind games with the team. Soon it had been discovered that a chemical weapon, called Kifist, was involved. The kids had hacked into the CIA to gain the intelligence behind the weapon. The kids eventually, after breaking out of the Navy Yard, had made it to where their friends were being held. NCIS came in to help and together they got everyone of the kids out of danger and saved the two that had been taken away. The good news had been that the complexity of Kifist meant that the attempt by the group that had stolen the weapon had failed when they tried to use it to get rid of the Arm Fed leaders. The bad news had been that the group of terrorists had disappeared along with Kifist.

Vance eyed Abby suspiciously, making Abby worry that her face was now all too easy to read. "Come with me," he said after a moment.

Abby reluctantly followed the Director to the elevator doors. Vance pressed the up button and stepped back waiting for the doors to open. After a minute he pressed it again and waited, now tapping his foot. Abby couldn't help but roll her eyes, the director could be so impatient some times.

After another minutes the director rapidly punched the buttons a few times swearing under his breath something about Agent Gibbs.

"I think the stairs might be faster, sir," Abby suggested.

Vance turned to the stairwell and opened the door, "Well my wife has been saying I need to get more exercise now.

Abby followed the man up to his office. When they walked through the door they were met by Agents Gibbs, DiNozzo, David, McGee and Doctor Mallard (Ducky) and Palmer. The agents and Ducky had set faces ready to show no emotion at whatever was about to transpire. Palmer looked a little curious. Vance walked to his desk and sat down.

"Abby, close the door," Vance said as they came in. Abby did as she was asked, a little happy that the Director was finally getting the idea of calling her Abby instead of Ms. Scuitio. She then walked to join the line of her fellow workers.s

Vance's eyes wandered up and down the line, "Let's cut to the chase, I know all of you were a part of the group that went to the school and worked to revcover Kifist."

Gibbs rolled his eyes as Ziva David spoke up what Gibbs was thinking, "What makes you say that?"

Leon Vance picked up an envelope and showed it to them, "This is what makes me say that. This has all of the information I needed to be able to put two and two together."

Tony DiNozzo laughed, "What do you want us to believe that is?"

Vance put the envelope in plain sight on his desk, "It's the last thing I needed to link all of you to Kifist. First thing I found was this picture." Vance slid a photo across his desk. Gibbs picked it up and passed it down the line. When Abby got it she had to concentrate on keeping her composure. It was a picture of them with kids. She recognized them all: Becca, Megan, Hannah, Annelise,TJ, Kevin, John, and Matt. The good news was that this picture had been taken outside of the school, so the NCIS agents could push that point. And Gibbs did.

"It's a picture we took outside of the school. What does it prove?"

"All that told me what agents were involved," Vance answered. "Do you know where this envelope came from?"

"The post office?" Palmer asked.

"No," Vance responded harshly. "A teenage girl came by and dropped it off with the receptionist."

"Is there something odd about that Sir?"

"No, what was odd however was that she then smiled and waved directly at the security camera. How would she have known where the camera was?"

Everyone shrugged in reply to Vance's question. Abby was the only one to vocalize her answer, "Maybe she saw it?"

"Possible," Vance admitted, "Either that or she had been here before."

Gibbs rolled his eyes, "Leon, I think you are looking too far into this." Everyone stood eyeing the people or person on the other side of the desk.

"Ms. Scuitio," Vance addressed her. So much for Abby, she thought. Vance picked up the letter and gave it to her. Upon inspection she saw that it was addressed to her. Abby slowly turned the envelope over to open it and saw that the seal had been broken. Out of the corner of her eye she caught Gibbs' eye and saw a small nod that was discreet enough that unless u were looking for it you wouldn't have caught it. . She knew imedately what he wanted her to do.

"Did you read my mail?" Abby asked directly.

"Only the last line," Vance answered bluntly.

"Isn't that a federal crime or something?"

"We had to screen it," Vance shrugged, "And someone saw the last sentence and brought it to my attention."

"Was it like a death threat or something?" Abby questioned her voice rising with what seemed like real anger. "Why did you have to screen it?"

Vance smirked towards DiNozzo, "I seem to remember a story about the Plague being in an envelope that an agent opened. We don't want that to happen again."

Abby had run out of accusations so she glared at the director while she pulled the piece of paper out of the envelope. The letter was on printer paper and typed up in a nice font. She opened it and read what it said:

Dear Abby,

Wow, it's been almost four years since we wrote to you with that line opening. I don't know if you remember but then my father had died and NCIS had investigated the case. You had learned about somethings and met some kids. My friends and I had made a promise after that time that next time something happened we would contact NCIS before making any move. Well its 4 years later and we have kept this promise. But now we have a problem, Becca's gone missing. No one has any idea where she is. Her parents saw her as rebellious and she had told them that she was going to run away someday so they aren't too worried because she knows where they are if they need her. Really this has been her now guardian's thoughts because both of her parents are deployed so she had been staying with her aunt. Abby, she's been gone for almost a month. We, meaning her friends, know that something must've happened to her. Not just because we know her so well, but because what we found in her room. (Okay, so we still do small things without telling you. But I won't say anymore because I'm not sure who might see this letter.)On her bed under her pillow was a note. After reading the note my friends and I want to take action but we remember our promise, so we haven't done anything… yet. Her note is enclosed.

Sincerely,

Annelise

Abby passed the note from Annelise to McGee who was standing next to her. The rest of the team surrounded the agent and read over his shoulder. Soon they were all looking expectantly at Abby.

"Abby, what is on the note from Becca?" Ziva asked.

Abby urgently looked into the envelope and grabbed the piece of white lined paper. She opened it and read the quick handwriting on it.

Dear Abby: KIFIST IS BACK.

NCIS

But then we went on a family trip and walked around Washington DC (my feet hurt from that)…. REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW please. Tell me how mad u are that I took so long to write this. Tell me what jokes you want me to include. Tell me your opinions of Director Vance. Tell me that you had forgotten my stories existed. Tell me the name of your best friend's pet. Just talk to me. I don't care if you are reading this months after I have posted this.
