Chapter 1
He left his house as he did every day. It was five o'clock pm and the sky was already dark. It was December and cold outside. He liked the snow. In Israel, there never was any snow. He looked around. Nobody followed him. That was good. He did not want to be followed. He crossed the street and got into his car.
His cell phone rang. He looked at the display and accepted the call. 'Hey, honey. What's up?', he asked. 'Just wanted to tell you that I'll come later tonight', his girlfriend answered. 'Difficult mission', she added. 'Okay. I look forward to see you', he smiled but knew she could not see him smiling. He hung up the phone and started the motor of the car.

It was three o'clock am, the same night. Tony already was in bed. Although that did not mean that he already slept. How could he even think about sleeping with having such a nice woman next to him in bed? He looked sideward and smiled. He kissed her again. She was beautiful, blonde, a little bit too thin and she was smiling back. They have had a wonderful night. They did not know each other before. However, it has just happened. They had got to know each other in a bar and after a few drinks, they ended up in Tony's bed. Tony was lucky. But then his cell phone rang. 'That's my boss', he whispered. The girl nodded. Tony did not even know her name. It did not matter.
'Yeah, what's up', Tony asked. 'Dead marine', Gibbs answered and told him the address. 'I'm on my way boss', Tony said and out the phone back on his night table. 'I'm sorry', he said and kissed the girl. He did not know her age. It did not matter. She just had reassured him that she was older than eighteen. She looked young. 'We have three o'clock in the morning', she said looking at the alarm clock. 'I know', Tony said searching his jeans. 'Duty calls', he said putting his gun out of the draw of the night table. The girl did not seem shocked. She stood up, too and started searching her clothes.

He came home at two o'clock in the morning. That was early. He usually did not come back before sunrise. That was a disadvantage of his work. But he liked it. His girlfriend was not home yet. He got ready and waited for her. At half past three she finally showed up. 'Where have you been?', he asked while she undressed herself in the bedroom. 'I have just done my job. Why are you so early?', she asked and kissed him. She searched her pajamas. Ari smiled. 'You searching this here?', he asked and held up her t-shirt of a well-known rock band and her night short pants. She wanted to grab them but he put it away from her. 'Do you really think that you're going to need them tonight?', he asked. She stepped into the bed and kissed him. 'No', she whispered into his ear. 'By the way', she said, 'I have something you might be interested in.' 'And what?', he asked. She got up again, went to her jeans she had put on the chair and came back. It was a little piece of paper. 'Why should this piece of paper interest me?', Ari asked. She smiled and gave it to him. '64McNerd', he read out loud. He looked confused. 'My boss had asked me to find out some information about a special agent. I used the chance to find out his password', the beautiful, blonde and a little bit too thin girl said. 'This is Tony DiNozzo's password for the NCIS main computer. He is the only agent of Gibbs' team who has access to top secret information.' 'Why?' 'The director Leon Vance wanted him to find the mourn in NCIS. He succeeded but never removed his access.' She smiled at him. Then she kissed him. 'Did you sleep with him?', he asked when he put the little piece of paper on his night table. She did not answer at first. He looked into her jet-black eyes. She could lie to him that easily. He had been trained by Mossad to lie perfectly and to recognize lies. But she had been trained, too, by MI5. She was a perfect liar and she could perfectly hide her emotions. He loved her. Although she answered with 'yes'.
