Death brings Life

"Go near her and I don't care what government agency is watching your back, I will kill you this time."

The words kept creeping up on him as he watched Kate's lifeless body. Gently he reached out and closed her eyes with one of his hands. He kept it there as he stroked her cheek trying to stay in control.

"Boss?"

Hearing Tony's voice he knew what that meant. They were ready to take her away. Reluctantly he withdrew and stood up never taking his eyes of her. He felt Tony's hand on his shoulder.

"We'll get him boss, we'll get him."

There was harshness in his words that Gibbs had never heard before. He knew very well how Tony felt for he felt the same. They would get him and make him pay. Gibbs would make him pay if it was the last thing he did in his life.

Tony could not believe what had happened. He would do anything to see Kate open her eyes. To yell at him if need be. Oh, how he wished she would open her eyes. "Please Kate, open your eyes." His voice was pleading in his head.

Gibbs watched as they gently picked her up and put on the stretcher. When they covered her face he looked away. He looked at Tony and saw him trying not to cry.

"We'll get him Tony, we'll get him."

……………………..

Abby could not stop the tears as they came down her face.

"Damn, damn, damn." She pounced on the table with the hands. "Why you, Kate?" She yelled at the top of her lungs. She noticed someone walking up to her and turned. Right then she flew to his side throwing her arms around his neck. She felt him embrace her back. "Why Gibbs, why?"

"I.. I don't know, Abs." He tightened his hold on her.

"I want her back. Make her come back." She cried in his shoulder.

"I.. God Abs, I wish I could. I would do anything…" He couldn't even finish the sentence as he felt the lump in his throat grow larger. "I want her back too."

The last sentence was a whisper but she had heard it. She withdrew from him and looked into his eyes. There were tears threatening the calm surface.

Together they stood embracing each other in the silent lab.

…………………

Tony looked over to Tim's desk. He looked as miserable as Tony felt. He got up and walked over.

"McGee, you ok?" That was a stupid question.

Tim lifted his head and nodded slightly at Tony. "I'll be ok. Just thinking…"

Tony put a hand on his shoulder. "I know Tim, I know. Me to."

"At least.. at least she didn't suffer." Tim choked out.

Tony nodded. "Yeah. Yeah."

Together they sat in silence as Tony let his hand stay on Tim's shoulder in a sign of comfort.

"Ah my dear, life can be so cruel." Ducky brushed some hair from her face. "You should have had more time."

He sighed deeply trying to organize his thoughts. He did not want to do this and yet he did. Better him then someone else. Another deep breath escaped him as he walked away to gather his thoughts once more before starting.

There was a sound. He looked back to the body but saw nothing. Turning away again he could have sworn he heard something. Then suddenly there was a gasp and he turned to see Caitlin's body sit straight up. He stared in disbelief as she kept gasping for breath and calming herself. She coughed and took more breaths. Then, as suddenly as before she slumped back to the cold table.

Ducky slowly started walking over to her. She was incredible still. Had he been hallucinating? Then he noticed her chest move up and down slowly. He stopped and her head turned towards him. She smiled at him and then everything went black.
