Chapter One : An Ordinary Morning
The morning would have been like any other morning, ordinary in the way people continued their habitual preparation for the day. But what made this specific morning so very extraordinary were the events it preceded. Today would change the life of one NCIS team drastically…but would it damage them irrevocably?
Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs awoke to find himself with a block of wood and sandpaper in one hand and a bottle of whiskey in the other. In front of him loomed the nearly completed hull of his boat. This was the eighth night in a row that he awoke this way so it was quite understandable that he had no problem rising from the chair he was seated in, placing the half full bottle of whisky on the counter, and headed up the basement stairs.
It was still early, even by his standards, but this did not deter one Jethro Gibbs at all. After a short detour to the kitchen he made his way to his room, steaming cup of bitter coffee in hand, to get ready for yet another day.
Anthony Dinozzo woke up the same way he'd been waking up for three months – on his back, a warm brown haired beauty lying against him. One might think that they both appeared peaceful until said brown haired beauty – none other than Agent Ziva David - awakens with a loud snort, causing Tony to laugh…
…until the phone rings and a barked, "Get your ass out of bed Dinozzo!" sends them both running for the shower.
Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard barely noticed his own routine. It started with the ritual of getting out of bed and tending to his mother before preparing himself for the day ahead. Never was there anything new or any surprises – except those his mother occasionally left in certain parts of the house.
When his mother was settled he would proceed to his classic restored roadster and head to work, ready for whatever the day might bring.
The most significant change would be that of the life of Abby Scuito, Forensic Specialist and Goth. To even her the day appeared no different that any other. She woke up, as usual, opening her coffin and stretching out. Her radio would automatically switch on and one could almost feel the loud music shake the house.
A shower, two Caff-Pow!s, and a lot of black make up later she looked in the mirror, happy with the way her jet black hair stood high in two ponytails. She was excited about going to work everyday.
Dancing to the music she made herself breakfast before heading to her hearse waiting outside. And, as always, an excited Abby didn't notice the red van that seemed to follow her every move…
Yes, for Leading Special Agent L.J. Gibbs and his team, there was nothing out of the ordinary about their mornings.
But soon, all that would change.
