Chapter 1

Tim's POV

Sometimes Tim still had the nightmares.

He couldn't help but see the Joker leaning over him, his eternal smile etched onto his face as he laughed, and then Tim laughed, and he couldn't stop laughing.

Bruce and Dick had told him several times before that he would never end up there again, and Tim believed them, but that didn't take the fear away.

Sometimes, it bothers him when the team acts like he is totally helpless. The reason he never answered Ziva when she asked if he had ever been tortured was because he had, and he was afraid of what he might say if he did answer.

Yes, Ziva, yes I have been tortured, but I was able to hold out for at least a week, maybe more, before a mix of chemical injections, electrocution, beatings, and being locked in the dark caused me to start losing my sanity and telling the Joker what he wanted.

Right now, Tim was at his desk. He'd changed his name while here to Tim McGee because he wanted no one to know who he really was.

Dick said he was being paranoid once, but Tim thought paranoia was fine in this case; he was a vigilante working with Feds after all.

Bruce hadn't thought it to be a good idea for Tim to go to college for law enforcement, but Tim had wanted to fight crimes day and night. So he took tech and computer forensics. And now he was here, working at NCIS.

It was far away from Gotham, but on his nitro possessing R-Cycle, Tim was able to get places quite fast. He'd be back in Gotham before Tony could finish one of his annoying stories about sneaking out when he was a kid, in his costume, and ready to help fight.

He also continued with his vigilante work here, kind of like how Dick established himself in another city, but deep down, Tim wanted nothing more than to be back in Gotham, but he still didn't want to leave NCIS.

Being taught to be aware of all of his surrounding, Tim knew that Tony was playing on his phone, Ziva was working on her report, and he knew without even looking up that Gibbs had just entered the room.

Gibbs slapped Tony upside the head. "Play games on your phone on your own time, DiNozzo," he said.

"Yes, Boss," Tony said, immediately putting the phone away.

"Grab your gear; we have a case," Gibbs said.

The team immediately sprang up.

"Where at, Boss?" Tony asked.

"Gotham," Gibbs said.

Tim felt as if his heart had both taken a flying leap and fallen down into his stomach at the same time.

Gotham

An: Dun, dun, dun. Sorry about the sort of cliff hanger ending, but I felt like this was a good place for a cut off. For those of you wondering, yes I am still working on Forever a Cat. I am really not the type to leave fics unfinished. I just really wanted to start working on this idea, and another one. I won't be doing the Harry Potter one yet, but I do have another idea for an NCIS and Batman crossover. It's supposed to be back before the series, when the team consisted of just Gibbs, Tony, Abby, and Ducky. Anyway, Gibbs and Tony end up saving Tim Drake from the Joker before he gets turned into J.J. I'll be working on that one next. I hope I can publish it today as well, possibly even this morning if there's time.

Anyway, to clear things up for this fic, when Batman and Batgirl saved Robin from the Joker, they ended up helping him get back to normal and everything, like in the comics, but they also found out about the chip in his brain and removed it so he won't be turning into a Joker clone anytime soon. However, I intend to be so very evil, and make it so the Joker survived, but none of them know it, until now of course. Believe me, tim will be very freaked out, might even have another nervous break down.

Anyway, thanks for reading, and thank you for the reviews on Forever a Cat. They were heartwarming.
