This storyline has been on my mind for quite a while now & I'm well aware that some of you might not like the idea, but well, I do like it pretty much and it was quite a lot fun writing it, especially since I love Ziva & Liat together!
Nevertheless enjoy reading & tell me your thoughts!

„It is time." The blonde woman was looking at her watch without any sign of hurry.
Their assignment was clear and has been for the past years. At least for the brunette woman who was standing next to her partner in front of the NCIS building.
She spent years to gain the trust of her new co-workers and she succeeded. Her father has been a great help in all of this. Pretending that he was the villain by sending his own daughter to a camp in Somalia to be tortured when in reality there was never any kind of danger for her.
After this her co-workers finally trusted her and thought they needed to protect her from her father and Mossad.
All of it was a lie. And she thought that this was probably one of her most successful assignments which would bring her and her partner one step further in her career at Mossad.
She nodded at her partner and replied, "Ok Liat, let's go."
Liat walked towards the large window to check out if everyone on the inside was still on his place and went on to check if their car was parked in the right spot.
Ziva was on the phone, calling her father that everyone was set as soon as Liat gave her ok.
As soon as she hung up she walked down the same path as Liat and looked into the windows one last time.

"Ziva, I have a new assignment for you. I think you are the one person I can rely on to fulfill my order faithfully." He handed her a file and as she opened it she was looking into several faces. There were photographs of three men. Two younger ones and one that seemed a little older. She looked further through the file to get the information she needed. They were all NCIS Agents in Washington D.C. and it was her order to gain their trust and get the information her father wanted before one day the day would come to get them out of the way. This is how they normally proceeded.
"If you are ready you can pick up the things you need. The plane will be waiting for you in four hours."
She simply nodded at him and turned around, leaving his office to get ready for her flight.

Everyone was busily working inside but she didn't have much time to think about that now.
Liat was waiting for her, slightly smiling.
They were now a few feet away from the building but still able to see what was going on inside.
They shared one last look before Ziva was pulling out her phone once more to enter the final numbers while Liat was carefully watching her.
Then she hit enter and the explosion set off.
The following seconds the blast destroyed the windows and glass fragments were flying towards them.
The next thing they witnessed was the mess inside the building and the dust wafting around the destroyed office.
They quickly checked if their job was really done and then turned around to walk towards their car.
Now they both smiled at each other while Ziva opened the driver's door, something she wouldn't discuss about anymore after all those years with Liat as her partner.
She started the motor and then they were gone.
Nobody would ever suspect her which means she had done her job well.
She looked at Liat one more time and Liat nodded in silent acknowledgement before she focused on the street again.
They would go home again.
Finally.
