Summary: Rose Tyler has managed to leave the parallel universe after 75 years has passed. She currently works at NCIS with no way to contact the Doctor. But who is this curly haired woman claiming she knew Gibbs, and this man in a distinctive World War II greatcoat claiming he knew Rose?
Rose grumbled as her alarm clock went off at 5:45. Bloody hell, even after a year I still can't get used to the time difference. A mental note popped in her head, telling her it's been 27, 369 days without the Doctor. She grumbled again, cursing Torchwood for making her their 'supreme warrior' and altered her body. She sighed as she got up to take a shower and head to work. While she was in the shower, thoughts ran through her head like the water ran down her body. If the Doctor ever does come back, should I go to him willingly? I mean, what if has a new companion…or what if he forgot me? Rose turned the water off and stepped out of the shower. "I'm being silly," she said aloud," of course he wouldn't forget me. Otherwise he wouldn't have sent me that transmission." Rose tried very hard to believe that with all her heart, even when her consciousness said snidely There is such a thing called moving on…

Rose flashed her badge at Claire, the receptionist, and headed to the elevators. Just as the doors were about to close, Gibbs quickly slipped into the elevator, holding a cup of coffee and Caf-POW!.
"Thanks for waiting," Gibbs said sarcastically.
"Sorry, didn't see you there…" Rose apologised.
"Someone wake up late?" Gibbs asked, pointing to Roses' still wet hair.
"Uh, yeah. Something like tha'." Rose replied.
Rose felt a little awkward at the silence until Gibbs said, "The director says that our work from the last week deserves a break." Rose gave a sigh of relief. Gibbs smirked, "Did the last case wear you out? Finding terrorists that were influencing little kids?" Rose grinned because Gibbs knew that Rose had trouble running from professional snipers with an injured leg and various broken bones. The elevator opened up and Rose and Gibbs walked into the bullpen.
Abby came up to Rose and gave her a big hug. "Rose! Are you okay?"
" Yes. You know that case was a week ago." Rose replied with a hug.
"I know, but still, your shape scared all of us half to death! You were so pale and covered in-"
Gibbs interrupted Abby, "Hey, where's my hug?" As Abby gave Gibbs a hug, Rose mouthed thank you to Gibbs, who nodded in reply.
"Did you-" Gibbs interrupted Abby again, "Yes, do you need to ask?" Abby smiled gratefully as she took a huge slurp out of her Caf-POW!. As Rose walked to her desk, she dropped a letter onto Tim's desk.
"Claire told me to give that to you."
Tim looked up, "Oh. Thanks. Do you know who it's from?"
"Nope, I didn't ask. Wasn't sure if it was private or not." She replied as she logged onto her computer.
Ziva asked, "So, what are we supposed to do this week? Hang around NCIS and be bored?"
"No, it's more like we're Tim, a probation officer, except we're a probation team. The other teams get the cases, unless we're really needed."
Rose thought for a moment while her computer turned on. "So, we're supposed to play sci-fi games and be a computer hacker? Won't Tony be overjoyed…" Rose said sarcastically.
Gibbs smirked as Tony rushed in and said, "What about me?"
"You're late DiNozzo, " Ziva scolded. "Yeah, well, traffic. Hi Boss, Probie, Sweetcheeks, Flower. Now, what were you saying about me, Flower?"
"We get to be Probie for a week and you'd enjoy being a probation officer and paying sci-fi games." Rose grinned as Tony over dramatized the thought.
"Nooooooo! My worst nightmare! I cannot be forced to watch sci-fi things and be a computer hacker!" Tim looked up at Tony and mouthed "Rude." Ziva and Rose and glanced at each other and muttered something about boys.
Ducky walked into the bullpen carrying a small envelope in his hand. "My dear English Rose, you have a letter. A man in a blue military
greatcoat said to give it to you." Rose smiled fondly at Ducky as he called her 'English Rose.' She took the letter from Ducky who added, "Oh, he also said to open it as soon as possible." With a swift movement, she opened the envelope and took the letter out and began to read it aloud.
"Dear Blondie,"
