DISCLAIMER: Would I be writing here if I owned it? Much to my dismay I do not...ah well...

SUMMARY: AU, Kate's still here, Morrow never left, Kelly's still alive and Ari never happened. What happens when a team from the FBI turns up wanting to talk to Dinozzo? Why do they need to talk to him? And why has he been looking like he's not slept in a month recently? (Rated for language)

Lucia Sorrento felt as though her lungs were constricting. She knew she couldn't go on fighting. Her ribs were broken, and a cut on her arm was bleeding. She'd managed to get a moments respite by scrambling into her own room and locking the door. She grabbed a notepad and pen and scribbled down a quick note.

Contact Tony Dinozzo at NCIS, he'll know what to do. Look after him. Lucia.

She put it on top of her chest of draws and trapped it under a jewellery box. When the door burst open, she was on the other side of the room.

"You'll be joining your brother very soon you bitch," the man snarled.

She looked at him defiantly. "You won't get to them, I won't let you."

"My dear, quite the contrary, I have already found Marissa, and I have her."

"You…you…you bastard."

Her father smirked. "I think we'll have to have a long discussion about respect young lady." He lunged and Lucia closed her eyes as her back slammed into the wall. Soon blessed unconsciousness claimed her.
