Introduction
When Tony has a baby handed to him and said he is the father. Tony starts to think about his past and future but even more about now. Tony ends up leaving sometimes things can't be fixed even with time…
Prologue: Part 1
Tony got up from his bed at the smell of breakfast. One of his children must he cooking. He changes and goes to the kitchen to see Lily who was 16 making breakfast.
"Morning Dad! And you feeling better?" Lily asks
"I am getting there Lils", Tony says as a knock on the door
Tony opens the front door to find a small baby in a basket and a note. Looking around he saw no one. The baby begins to cry.
"Hey, Hey it's ok", Tony says gently picking up the baby and going inside
"Dad who is that?" Matthew asks
Matthew was also 16.
"Don't know somebody put her on my doorstep. I need to read the note", Tony says careful minding the baby he reads the letter then looks at the baby
"Dad?" Lily asks
"She is my daughter. She is just a few days old and doesn't even have a name", Tony looked at his little girl with her big green eyes looking at him
"We are keeping her?" Damien asks
Damien was also 16.
"Yes. I just need to come up with a plan. You guys go to school. Take the ones that can't drive with you. It is time I made a decision", Tony says sitting down on the couch watching the baby
His children leave for high school. Tony held his daughter feeling more and more connected to her.
"How are Sarai Laura DiNozzo for you huh?" Tony asks the baby kissing her forehead
Once the baby was fed and changed (he had supplies from when the kids were little still hanging around) he puts her on his bed with pillows around her making sure she couldn't fall off. Tony returns to the couch to think. He puts his head in his hands. What was he going to do? He had a new child to protect. But he wouldn't be good to anyone dead. He didn't trust his team not family to have his back anymore.
So the next morning getting the kids to babysit he walks into the bullpen.
"DiNozzo where have you been?" an angry Gibbs asks
Tony ignores him and walks up the Director's office.
"Cynthia is the Director in? I need to speak with her", Tony asks
"Let me check Agent DiNozzo", Cynthia says going to see the Director
"Tony come in", Jenny calls
Tony takes a deep breath and walks forward with a mask firmly placed on his face.
"Director", Tony says
"What brings you to my office Tony?" Jenny asks
"I came to ask for a reassignment. Anywhere but in DC. I think it is time", Tony says
Jenny was shocked that Tony wanted to leave.
"I will look into it", Jenny says
"Director please don't tell anyone", Tony asks
"Ok Tony", Jenny says as the man goes making her wonder what she was doing to do
2 days later it was 9pm and Tony had walked into the bullpen. Nobody was there. He knew because he saw all their cars at Gibbs house. Jenny had called him to the office so he sits down and waits.
"I have found you a good position it is actually two promotions. If you what you will be SAC of Spain. You will work with all the teams there. I know you have already been Team Leader. So I think you can handle the pressure of being SAC Agent DiNozzo", Jenny says
Tony hadn't been expecting this. But he knew his answer.
"I will take it. When do I leave?" Tony asks
"Three days. Tony are you sure about this?" Jenny asks
Tony sighs and closes his eyes, "Jenny it is time I moved on. Not from NCIS but from this team. I can't say anymore if they will have my six. That scares me Jenny. What if I die and don't make it home to my children? I used to also feel they had me six but for months they have begum more distant with me. Agent Gibbs doesn't spot what he usually does. I have been betrayed by my team more times then once. It IS time"
"You have children Tony?" Jenny asks surprised
"Yes. Another things Gibbs didn't pick up on the Kate and I were married when she died. When she died she was carrying my baby. I lost her and the baby in the same day. My wife of 12 years dead and my unborn child. You know how hard it is to look at her desk with Officer David in it? Gibbs didn't even consult me like he used to for her to be on the team. They through a dinner party and I wasn't invited, I took over as team leader for Gibbs and all I got was disrespect from Office David. Kate's birthday went by and I tried talking to Abby but she said things are not just about ME all the time and I was selfish and should have made Gibbs stay. Ducky ignored everything. When Gibbs came back to help Office David it was like being betrayed. She hadn't trusted me to call help her. I would have. Then Gibbs takes back his role without even consulting me. That was hurtful. Officer David and Agent McGee turned off the radio while we were looking for a terrorist. They didn't hear that I almost got shot. The bullet grazed my ribs. Then is that little stunt Gibbs pulled a month ago. He never thanked me for saving his life and having his six. I was in the hospital for two weeks battling to breath and where was he and my team? They weren't there. I tried to call them but none picked up. THAT was like a sharp knife to the heart. So Jenny I am done here DC is not my home any longer and probably will never be again. I have had enough and I have a family to think about. It is time to move on", Tony says
Jenny was angry at what Tony told her how could Gibbs, Ziva, McGee, Abby, Ducky and Palmer all do that to Tony. She now understood him needing to get off the team. She would do the same but early on. She didn't know how Tony lasted this long. But Kate wasn't dead. And Tony didn't know. Jenny vowed to do get her and bring her to Tony.
"Well I wish you the best of luck Tony. I am also sorry for what you have been put through. I hope you find happiness in Spain", Jenny says
"Thank you Jenny. And please don't tell anyone where I went not if they care anyway. I need a fresh start", Tony says turning towards the door
"I understand. Tony how many children do you have?" Jenny asks
Tony gives her a sad grin, "For their safety I won't say. I will see you Director"
"Yes I will expect reports from you. Take care", Jenny says
"I will", Tony says leaving
Tony walks down the stairs to his desk packs his stuff up taking everything. He grabs Gibbs's metal box and deposits it on Agent McGee's desk. Once done we walks to the elevator looking once at the bullpen he once felt comfortable in but now didn't. Yes it WAS time…
