Author's Note: I wanted to read some stories like this but of course I just couldn't find any. Apparently most of my stories revolve around pranks so I figured why not? Hope you enjoy this…I'm planning on doing perhaps seven chapters in this not including this Prologue. Seven different pranks but I might add more…We'll see

Disclaimer: I do not own any characters aside from any of my personal creations that may or may not crop up throughout this story. Owning the rights to N.C.I.S. is the number one thing on my Christmas list.

The Prank War Begins

It was quiet in N.C.I.S. It was too damn quiet. The quiet seeped into every crevice of the building including the lab belonging to Abby, the usual music was missing. The Goth herself wasn't even in her lab. She wasn't even gathered along with the rest of the occupants of the building in the bullpen. Wherever she was, Special Agent Gibbs's team was with her.

There was something strange going on. Something was going to happen. Everyone seemed to know it too.

Suddenly, everyone's attention riveted to the catwalk. The door of the Director's office had opened and a seemingly very unhappy DiNozzo walked out. Perhaps the fact he was unhappy had something to do with how he had managed to wind up in a court jester's costume. Another member of Agent Gibbs's team, Timothy McGee, filed out behind him in a squire's costume. They shifted so they were not blocking the doorway from which, Ziva David, dressed as a lady in waiting stepped out. From Behind her came Abby Sciuto dressed as a princess. On the one side stood Abby and Tony and on the other stood Ziva and McGee.

The agents spread out below couldn't help but laugh at the ridiculous costumes their colleagues were wearing.

Tony cleared his throat and began, "Hear Ye, Hear Ye! You have been called to give witness to the beginning of a legendary prank war between our Queen, Jennifer Shepard, and our King, Leroy Jethro Gibbs." As their names were announced, they stepped from the shadowy doorway, both very much looking their parts.

"We just thought we'd give you all heads up in case things started exploding, a very likely possibility around here." Tony explained, dropping the old timey accent and vocabulary.

"Let the games begin!"

He was answered with thunderous applause and a couple of hurrahs from the agents gather below.

"You will be assigned a team to support but you won't have to worry about being the butt of the pranks unless you are in the wrong place at the wrong time." DiNozzo cut across the applause, a smirk on his face.

This was going to be pretty damn funny as far as he was concerned.
