Taking the Blow for her

It was normal day for them. They were on case about four Navy sailors were murder and raped near Navy yard. The team immanently had few clues. They were closing in on guy who did. His name was former Petty Officer Donie Rouge. He wanted revenge because those four sailors got him torn out Navy. They were no inside of building closing in fast. Gibbs was in center with Tony on right and Ziva and McGee on left. The guy was trapped in corner.

"Give up Donie you won't get of here with pair handcuffs." Gibbs says pointing his gun towards him.

"Stay away or blow this up sky high." Donie says panicky relieving strapped on bomb to his chest and decorator.

They slowly backed away. Then they noticed it was on timer with 5 minutes left on clock. " GET OUT OF HERE BEFORE THIS THING GOES OFF." Gibbs yelled

They took off towards the door they came count down getting closer to 1. Tony and Gibbs out first followed by Ziva and McGee. The explosion sent them flying. McGee grabbed Ziva holding him close to him taking most of blast and landing. They landed near car with Ziva barely starched.

Ziva pushed McGee off her. Before screaming in bloody murder making Gibbs and Tony rushed over. Tony already dialed for ambulance.

"Tim stay with us stay wake." Gibbs order him

"I'll...try boss." Tim says between coughs.

Ziva allowed tears going down her face. She listen to McGee low breathing and his heart going. She kept him in her lap trying pick out glass and dirt of him. Soon ambulance arrived Tim was inside in fighting for his life. Gibbs and Ziva hopped in ambulance while Tony drove car to get Abby and Ducky.

In ambulance...

Ziva sat closet to Tim holding his hand. Gibbs sat near door. He rooked over at her.

"It not your fault that he hurt. He did what suppose to do protect his teammates. I should got us out sooner or shot him before it gotten that close." He says looking down with sad eyes.

Ziva looked at him. "No I it my fault I should be faster or had him walk in front of me." she says

Both were silent the rest of way. Once at hospital they took him back to get surgery and clean him up at best of their abilities. Ziva and Gibbs were left in waiting room waiting on results and rest of their little family.

To Ziva Tim McGee was her protective angel and now it her turn be his. She vowed for that mount to watch over him and take care of him intell he got better.
