Hello everyone! I'm a new writer. English isn't my first language so all mistakes are solely mine. I'm new to the NCIS fandom, but Gibbs turned out to be such an intriguing character that I had to write this. Hope you like it!

At The End Of The Day

He stood near the broken piece of wall, now bearing a plaque. As he read the words inscribed upon it he couldn't but help going back in his head.

He remembered this very spot almost four months ago. The destruction and chaos is still imprinted in his mind's eye. That day seeing what he loved, what he was proud of being broken and shattered had somehow brought back the rage in him from his younger days.

No one hurts his family and gets away with it.

But he's had his revenge. Dearing was dead. His family was safe.

Across the street, Abby stopped to wave at him. She had her arm looped through McGee. Tony and Ziva were talking about something, smiling. Ducky was out too, enjoying some of the sunshine. In a way it was a day of celebration. Palmer stood beside the old M.E., talking with the two agents.

Gibbs turned away, smiling.

At the end of the day, he has his family to come home to.
