Tony DiNozzo knew what he had to do. To follow orders. Whatever he liked them or not. Tony stood in front of the door to Director Shepard's office. She had called him up earlier that day, probably for another mission. After Gibbs had retired, he had been the person she had trusted most and he was always the one she sent on the important missions.
Tony knocked on the door and Cynthia told him to come in.

"Director Shepard will see you now, Agent DiNozzo" she smiled and let him pass.

Tony closed the door. Jenny sat in chair, looking out of the window. This was a difficult situation for her. What she was about to do was dangerous, not only for her, but for Tony too. However, she needed the information and knew if anyone could get it, he was the one.

"Sit down Tony" she said, still not take her eyes from the view. Tony did as he was told; his gut told him that this was a different mission.

"DiNozzo this will be dangerous, not only for you but this agency, well whole our country"

Tony sent her little smile "you always know how to make a mission sound wonderful Jenny"

"Tony this is important! It will not be easy at all"

"Jenny what is you want me to do?"

She nervously licked her lips. "Tony I want you to date a girl to get information about her father", Tony eminently relaxed, he had done that hundred times before. Be a gentleman, be romantic just… his thoughts was interrupted by the director.

"See DiNozzo! That was that face I would avoid! You think this will be easy, you think she just is a girl. Be romantic, be gentle and she will tell you everything! When it comes to women you are too naïve Tony!" Jenny was clearly upset. She tried to calm herself, why was all men so naïve? Think that with a smile and sweet words then they can get anything they want.

"This is not just a girl, it's Ziva David!"

The silence filled the room

Tony remembered the first time he met Ziva David and a smile crushed him lips…

He daydreamed about Kate. Her beautiful body in a sexy school uniform.

"Your mother should have washed your brain out with soap! Gibbs leaves with a woman, and your only thought is nooner" . Her hand was on her hips and she smiled defeatist to him.

"Was not" his DiNozzo smile was all over his face

"Was too"

"I have always known what you were thinking Tony"

He sent her a sexy smile and gave her his bedroom eyes. Kate looked suspicious at him.

"What? What are you up to?"

Tony looked down her body and Kate gasped when she was what she was wearing.

"Tony, I have just died and you are having a sexual fantasy!?"

"Can't help that" he smirked and her skirt flow up around her hips, as if the wind came from the floor. Her panties were discovered as Kate desperately tried to put the short skirt down again.

"DiNozzo!"

"Sometimes I used to picture you naked" he dreamed. That's when he didn't notice the exotic beauty that walked into the bullpen. She smirked at him; he was totally having phone sex. Kate disappeared when he saw her and he quickly pressed a button on his phone, said "I'll call you back" and looked at the woman.

"Hi"

She now stood in front of him, which made him a little frustrated.

"I was just…"

"Having phone sex?" she said, not laughing at ham, just smirking a bit.

"phone sex? No… arh Charades" he leaned back in the chair, smiling to the attractive woman in front of him

"Charades?" she repeated, not believing in any word he said.

"Like.." she showed him was she meant

"You've played"

"Never on the telephone" she turned away from him, looking around in the bullpen.

"Yearh" he said, not knowing how to cover his words.

"My partner and I were coming up with quotes for Saturday night"

"You play charades on Saturday night?" she replied, still not believing in his story.

"To kill time before I go clubbing. Who are you?" he really needed to change subject.

The woman pulled her badge up "Ziva David. Mossad."

"You're Israeli?"

She laughed quiet and shot "very good. The way you made that connection. Mossad, Israeli"

"What can I do for you miss David?" Tony said, not smiling, not laughing. His only thought was that she had something to do with Ari. Ziva turned around.

"Nothing. I'm here to see Special Agent Gibbs."

"How do you know I'm not Gibbs?" he really wanted to know what the young woman knew about Kates killer.

She laughed, she clearly knew he wasn't Gibbs "Gibbs?" she said again, and sat down on behind McGee's desk.

"He'll be back in an hour. Sure I can't help you?" Tony smirked again, not so much for flirting, more so he could get the information he wanted.

Ziva clicked with her tongue, she clearly enjoyed teasing him.

"I don't think so".

Tony quickly considering his options. If he wanted the information he needed to try all ways, she cleanly was good trained, but again she was Mossad, what had he expected? He started with his always-successful way. Flirting.

"We got off to a bad start" he stood up from his chair and walked over to the exotic woman.

"I'm Special Agent Tony DiNozzo. I wasn't playing charades. I was remembering my partner"

"Naked?" she pretended to puzzled, but she really liked playing with him.

"No" he looked down on the floor.

"Yes. I… I was just…" desperately needed an excuse.

"Look, I'm not the only man who does it" Ziva smirked by his excuse and gave him an answer he didn't expected.

"Oh, women do it too" she gave him the elevator glare "with handsome men". Tony walked uncertain back to his own desk, he was discovered.

Ziva continued "and even an occasional woman".

"Now you're teasing me"

"Didn't your partner tease you?"

"Not about sex. Kate was kind of puritanical" Tony wasn't sure what to say.

"Sorry"

"Well, it didn't matter. I wasn't interesting in her. We were partners". She sent on of her smiles again. Damn, why could she tease him like that? It was as if she knew what to say next, before he even had answered.

Ziva took the elastic out of her hair and let it flow down her shoulders. That made her look even sexier, and she knew it.

"She wasn't attractive?"

"She was, but not to me"

"Then why did you imagine her naked?" she smirked at him again. Oh, she loved this game! Tony had lost, he knew it, she knew it. There was no reason to continue.

"Miss David, you can sit there and slouch provocatively for an hour if you'd like, or you could tell me what you need and maybe I can help". It was clearly their teasing was over.

"You can't help because I'm here to stop Special Agent Gibbs from killing a Mossad officer". She stood up and walked so she again stood in front of him. Tony knew it, knew that woman had something to do with Haswari.

"Ari Haswari?"

"Yes"

He beckoned her closer to him. And said "I'd wish you luck, but I want the bustard dead too". Ziva stood, wasn't sure what to say…

Not long after that, (when he and Ziva talked about his history) Gibbs and the woman he had left with, showed up. She had proved to be the new NCIS Director. Jenny Shepard. That was when the team's world turned upside down. Days later Paula Cassidy had showed up, taken Kate's place. About a year later, Gibbs had laid in the hospital after had in the same room as an exploding bomb. When he had told the truth, no one had listened and they had covered it as an accident. After that, Gibbs had retired. Tony had taken the lead; however, it wasn't for long. When Fornell had been in been in contact with a man from an old case, he had called Gibbs for assistance. Together they had found out that it was the wrong man, they had put in jail. After that, Gibbs was back in charge.

All that went through his head, when she said he should date Ziva. A woman there more than everything reminded him of Kate. Reminded him of Ari. However he couldn't say no, if Ari really had been in Mossad, this was the only way to find out; maybe he could discover the truth and still do what the director told him to?

He nodded "yes, I will go undercover. Do you know how long it will take?"

"Until you get the answers Agent DiNozzo. I will give you more information tomorrow. Now, you can leave" Tony nodded and walked out of the office… Not happy, not sad, but resolute.

At the same day in the Israeli embassy.

Ziva David knocked on the door to Michael Bashan office. She really hoped he had a mission for her. Ever since she failed the mission in Rio six month ago, her father had ordered her on desk duty.

"Come in Ziva" he said in Hebrew.

Ziva stood in front of his desk. The office was big, and the furniture's was all in dark brown wood.

"Ziva, sit down" she did as she was told. His voice was calming and Ziva relaxed a bit.

"Ziva if you complete this mission with the needed information you will be sent out in the field again. However you need to be very careful, if you fail this it can have could have disastrous consequences"

"What is the mission Officer Bashan?" he sent her his glare and made her quiet.

"You will date Anthony DiNozzo. I assume you know him from your assignment with Officer Haswari" Ziva nodded, but had to ask "why?"

"You will get information about NCIS Ziva. Any important information and you will come straight to me"

"What kind of information is it?"

"Anything, we have got some… Disturbing calls, so any information that will help Mossad, you give straight to me"

Ziva nodded "yes"

"When will this mission start?"

"When you have done all your background check. Shalom Ziva"

"Shalom Officer Bashan".

Ziva smiled when she walked out of the embassy. One lame mission more and she would be sent out on real assignments again. This was too easy.

I really hope you like it. It's not very difficult to work out that Ziva will take Jeanne's place in Tony's life, but maybe the story will be different?

Tell me what you think about the story, is it bad? Good?

And sorry for my spelling errors :)
