I don't know length yet for this one, so bare with me. It's the end of my semester. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride. The smutty fun will begin soon.
Disclaimer: As you all know and understand, I do not own the characters of NCIS or NCIS in general, I just use settings and people to play around with and make cool stories. I do not own any songs that may be used either (Haven't decided to put in a song in or not).
XOXO,
Your Irish Friend.
NCIS
Gibbs groaned at the sound of his alarm, slowly waking from his bed. He stretched a little and walked into the bathroom to relieve his bladder and brush his teeth, noticing his canines were longer this morning. He sighed at the new revelation.
"Today of all days. Really!" He groaned. He looked closer at his eyes which have turned to a deeper blue like they normally do during the month of October. His fangs had become a little longer, but not full length and his throat felt slightly dry. It was a week before Halloween, and his vampire life style was coming in full, but this year it changed. He turned the age of 50 this year, the mid-point in anyone's life; only for Gibbs it was different. Jackson Gibbs had told him, that when he was 50 years old he would have a permanent change. He would no longer have the steely eye color, but a bright blue, as long as he fed correctly, and his fangs would be able to lengthen in certain situations such as feeding, emotional over loads, or when he marked his permanent lover. Gibbs' dad also mentioned that he would be immortal after 50 and his normal functions, such as eating regularly and using the bathroom would come to a halt. His body wouldn't age anymore, which meant that he would look 50 for the rest of his life. "Dad, I'm going to be immortal..." He mumbled, looking up towards the ceiling. His father had disappeared strangely, and no one knew where he was. He was missing, or dead. Gibbs sighed and continued on with his morning routine, getting showered and dressed after grabbing his to-go cup for a mixture of blood and coffee. He knew he needed to feed soon, but Gibbs was different. He didn't feed from humans like most vampires do in the little village they live in. You see, Gibbs is one of the only vampires that lived in the states. There were others, but they laid low. No one could know about their kind, and if they did, then they were either marked, or murdered. Most vampires lived over seas in Greece, Romania, Italy etc. Gibbs knew of a few others, but never met them on a more personal level, just as a passer-by. Gibbs also knew he didn't want to be murdered by those who wanted to get rid of their population, so he kept his vampire-self under control, especially when he was alone with one other person...
Tony... Gibbs thought. He sighed as he filled his cup and walked out the door for that morning at NCIS head quarters. He gave a small smile, thinking about how Tony might react if he knew that Gibbs has loved him for years. It was all so strange for Gibbs because he knew from the start he was different. He never put a label on himself, but he knew there was love for Tony, such as a lover. Gibbs hopped into his Challenger and drove off to NCIS that quiet Monday morning...
NCIS
Gibbs hummed softly standing in the elevator, sipping at his mixture in his cup. As much as he hated to mix the coffee and blood, he knew he had to or his agents would wonder why his teeth or lips turned to a bright red drinking coffee. Gibbs chuckled at the thought, and got off the elevator as soon as the doors opened. He looked into the bullpen and found all his agents were missing. Looking at the time he saw it was 0800 hours, so they should have been there. He tilted his head back, groaning, and going back to the elevator to go to Abby's lab. He waited until the bell signaled that he was at the right floor and he got out and walked into the lab, seeing Tony, Tim, and Ziva, talking with Abby.
"Okay, so we totally are going to have to invite Gibbs. He never comes to my Halloween parties, but he has to this year! He just has to!" Abby whined and Tony chuckled, making Gibbs smile. Gibbs cleared his throat causing all of his agents to turn and their faces pale.
"Good morning boss, uhm we were just...planning for Abby's party and-" McGee stopped being interrupted by Tony who smiled his flashy, toothy smile.
"Gibbs, the party this year sounds sweet. C'mon you have to go, you don't go to Abby's parties, and they are pretty damn fun!" Tony tried to convince Gibbs who stared at him blankly, waiting for him to finish. "This year there isn't even a theme! So you could totally come as yourself! There's booze and games and..." He paused and looked to Abby for help. Gibbs shook his head.
"I'll think about it. Now c'mon upstairs, go work on paperwork from our last case." He said and shooed them upstairs. Abby smiled brightly at Gibbs and hugged him tightly, making sure not to bump his cup. Gibbs chuckled and kissed Abby's forehead.
"Gibbs I promise if you go to this party, you will not be disappointed! I'll even have bourbon just for you!" She smiled and pulled back from the hug.
"I said maybe. When is it?" He asked softly, taking a sip of his drink and sighing.
"This Saturday, on Halloween!" Abby bounced on her heels and her joy started to bubble over. She shrieked and hugged Gibbs again, causing him to smile.
"If there isn't a case, I'll think about going. Maybe even dressing up Abs." He said and pulled her off and nodded. She smiled and danced around a little, making Gibbs shake his head. "See ya Abs." He said and walked out of the lab, going back to the elevator and going back into the bullpen. Ziva and McGee worked while Tony was throwing wads of paper into different trash cans. He stopped after seeing Gibbs and got to work, making Gibbs sigh and sit at his desk, opening his computer up to make himself look busy. They just wrapped up a case on Thursday evening, making Friday and today paperwork days. As he looked through his email, he found one from Vance and groaned. "I'll be back. Meeting with Vance." He mumbled and the agents nodded, and continued to work. Once he was up the stairs, Tony looked at the others and they went to the center of the bullpen.
"So, what is everyone going to dress up as this year? There is no theme." Ziva said and leaned back in her chair. Tony smiled brightly and McGee rolled his eyes at Tony.
"Well Abby and I are going to be partnered up as Mario and Luigi." McGee stated happily and Tony patted his back.
"Have fun my little Italian plumber." Tony chuckled and Ziva snickered. "Well what are you going as Zeeeevaaah?" Tony looked at her and she smiled.
"I was thinking maybe a cat." She said softly and hissed like a cat. McGee smiled.
"I think that's purrrfect Ziva." McGee said and she laughed.
"Well thank you McGee." She said and Tony rolled his eyes. "And what are you going as Tony? James Bond? A fire-fighter like last year?" She smirked and Tony groaned.
"C'mon last year was a bad year okay! We said we wouldn't bring that up again!" He pouted and crossed his arms. Ziva and McGee's eyes widened and slowly rolled back to their chairs. "Guys?" He said questionably and then felt the head slap from behind him. He winced and Gibbs passed him.
"Wouldn't bring up what Dinozzo?" Gibbs asked as he sat down and Tony rolled back to his desk.
"Nothing, boss." He said and worked quietly on his work. Gibbs gave a small smile and sighed. Vance had just informed him that their team was off call no matter what this upcoming weekend, since they have been on call for the past 6 weeks. It had been case after case and the team was in need of a full weekend off. Their break started Friday at 1600 hours. He looked down at the case file on his desk and read it over, only half focused on it. He couldn't help but wonder what Tony was going to wear to Abby's party that Saturday. Gibbs put the file down quietly and read the clock: 1000 hours. Maybe they wouldn't catch a case today. His phone rang all too soon and he answered.
"Gibbs. Yeah. On our way." Gibbs shut his phone and his team had already started packing their gear and heading to the garage. Gibbs tossed McGee the keys and he nodded in understanding.
NCIS
As soon as Gibbs had seen the body, he almost wanted to throw up, but knew he physically couldn't anymore. He put a hand over his mouth instead, him and his team, including Ducky and Palmer staring at the marine. The marine's body was strung up in a tree by the wrists and his lower half dangling, his body completely naked. Well, naked and empty. His entire abdominal cavity was cleaned out, his organs in bags around him, each having the weight and what was in each. His eyes, and his groin area completely carved out and put in bags too. His feet touched the ground.
"Oh my Jethro, this is definitely one for the books." Ducky murmured and he nodded.
"Alright, guys you know what to do." Gibbs said and they nodded, going to their jobs. McGee bagged and tagged everything while Ziva questioned the jogger who found him in the woods, and Tony sketched and took pictures. Gibbs sighed and rubbed a hand down his face. Everyone stayed quiet while doing their jobs, even Tony. The sight was very unsettling. Gibbs walked closer to the body, now being face to face with him. He put gloves on and lifted his lip and cursed under his breath. "Shit..." The marine was a vampire too. His fangs at full length, the crown of the tooth being an inch long (the crown of a tooth is the part that people see). Gibbs swallowed the lump in his throat and Ducky tapped his shoulder and saw what he was looking at.
"Oh my." Ducky said and both of the men looked at each other in fear. Ducky was the one person who knew about Gibbs being a vampire. He has walked in on him once emptying blood into a container for work one day, a long time ago. Gibbs let the lip fall back into place and Ducky nodded. Tony tapped Ducky's shoulder with McGee beside him.
"We can take young..." Tony paused a moment and read the dog tags that he had in his hand. "Petty officer first class Francis Morechester down..." He mumbled, wiggling the camera and giving McGee the dog tags to put in his evidence bag. He went back to bagging anything else around the area.
"Thank Anthony. Mr. Palmer! Let's get Mr. Morechester down." He shouted to Palmer who had gone back to the truck. Tony turned to help McGee and Ducky looked at Gibbs. "I know the drill Jethro. Keep this as quiet as possible." Ducky whispered and Gibbs nodded. Ducky and Palmer got Morechester down from the tree and got him onto the gurney.
"Time of death Ducky?" Gibbs said slightly shakily. Cases like these made his stomach churn and got him a little nervous, considering it was his own kind.
"Well Jethro... It is..." Ducky put the liver probe in a left it for a minute and pulled it out, marking off his information on a little pad of paper. "Mr. M has been deceased for 24 hours." He said softly and Gibbs nodded. Ducky and Palmer zipped up the bag and rolled Morechester to the ME truck.
"Gibbs?" Ziva mumbled from behind. Gibbs turned and looked at her. "The witness, a Miss Karen Welles, has given me her information if we need to further contact her." She said and Gibbs nodded. Ziva bit her lip and Gibbs sighed.
"What is it Ziva?" He asked and crossed his arms across his chest.
"This case makes you upset."
"Well, yes every case does Ziva. No marine should be murdered, especially like this." He motioned towards the rope in the trees, watching as McGee and Tony were trying to take it down.
"But this case has..."hit home" as they say?" Ziva asked looking up at him and he sighed, dropping his arms.
"Ziva." He said softly and she waited until he said something. When Gibbs remained silent, Ziva sighed and pulled Gibbs to the side.
"I know that you are one of them Gibbs." She whispered as Gibbs stared at her in shock, his face scrunching into a scowl. "Do not give me that face. I've known after a month of working with you." She mumbled and Gibbs looked around the area and then back at her, his teeth bared and his eyes a dark blue. She gasped a little.
"How did you find out?" He asked and stalked towards her, making her back into a tree. She held out her hands and he paused.
"Look.." She whispered and pulled her shirt up slightly, revealing small scars on her stomach, little dots here and there, but always in pairs. He looked at her in slight shock. ""My mother was a vampire, but she never marked any of us, for she feared the change we would go through, so she only fed, both from me and papa." She mumbled softly and Gibbs looked at her softly, his teeth shortening and his eyes turning to a slightly paler blue.
"I never knew." Gibbs said and she nodded. She turned towards the scene and saw McGee and Tony looking their way, giving odd looks. Gibbs looked towards her stare and then shooed them off, holding up one finger. They nodded and walked towards the MCRT truck. They both looked back at each other and she gave a small smile.
"That is not the only thing I know Gibbs." She said and Gibbs brow furrowed and he crossed his arms waiting for Ziva to speak. She started to walk towards the truck and he followed slowly, waiting for her to speak. "I know that you love Tony. Your eyes darken considerably when he's near, or in trouble." She mumbled and walked faster to the truck. Gibbs caught up to her easily and held out a hand for her to stop.
"Do not say a word, you hear me David? About any of this." He warned and she nodded.
"Your secret is safe with me." She said softly and got into the truck, sitting in the back with Tim and Tony sitting shotgun. Gibbs got in and McGee handed him the keys, letting him drive the truck back to headquarters. During the ride, Gibbs stole quick glances at Ziva, making sure his secret really was safe with her.
