Chapter One: The Meeting.
-NEW YORK-
Detective Mac Taylor strolled into his office with a sigh of relief to see that everything was running as usual in his lab. Unfortunately this was the last time he'd be in his office for a whole week. Only ever taken 5 and half days off in the 13 years he'd been in the NYPD, Sinclair had decided to send Mac and his team on a team-building course for a whole week in the wilderness. Oh well, I wonder if they'll take it better than I did. Mac thought for a few minutes remising on the reaction he produced when he was told. It was short lived when Stella Bonersera appeared in his doorway. ''Mac, you wanted to see me?'' She asked weary of her partner's expression which at the best of times was hard to read. ''Yeah Stel, could you gather everyone and bring them in here in 5 minutes, I have an announcement to make...'' He informed the curly haired woman standing 6 feet away. ''Sure thing,'' Stella replied wondering what this was about as she turned to walk out of his office and within a few seconds she was out of sight. A few minutes later she reappeared, accompanied with Danny Messer, Lindsay Monroe, Sheldon Hawkes, Adam Ross, Don Flack and even Payton Driscoll. Lindsay, Stella and Payton sat on the couch surrounded by Adam, Flack, Sheldon and Danny all facing their boss with worried faces. Mac stared out of the huge glass window and sighed. This is not good... not good at all. Danny thought when he heard his boss's deep breath before he began to talk.
''Right, this is going to be short and sweet. I'm about as happy about this as you are so don't shoot the messenger alright...'' Mac began specifically looking at Danny and Flack. ''... Sinclair has decided to send us on a 'Team Building Course' in the wilderness for 7 Days. We leave tomorrow morning at 6am. We will go in two cars so decided between yourselves who will go in which car. I and Stella will be driving. Oh and pack your swimming costumes there will be a lake where you can wash.'' He finished gazing out of the window again before making eye contact with the surprised CSI's individually ''Wow Mac, I mean woah...'' Lindsay breathed breaking the silence. ''I suggest you finish up here, go pack and get goodnights sleep, I don't want any crap about not feeling well enough to go alright!'' Mac's tone was a little sterner this time as he opened the door which signalled the others that it was their time to leave. One by one they filed out of his office. Each sharing looks of concern but with a giggle from Stella and Lindsay, they all said goodnight and went their separate ways.
-WASHINGTON-
''Your team are going on that course!'' Leon Vance -Director of NCIS- yelled at the ex-marine, stood on the other side of his desk. ''Can't it be postponed? They... we are still grieving over Jenny!'' Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs spat back. ''No and that's the last I want to hear about it, you leave tomorrow 6am sharp,'' the Director said in a calmer tone, realising they were still hurting over Jenny's murder. ''Fine!'' Gibbs said bluntly as he stormed out of the office and across the catwalk. ''Campfire boss?'' asked the senior field agent, Special Agent Antony DiNozzo. Special Agent Ziva David shot a glare at her partner as he asked their boss. Gibbs walked into the bullpen and looked up at the catwalk where the Director stood. ''Yeah DiNozzo, call Abby up here too,'' Gibbs said without breaking the stare with Vance. Special Agent Timothy McGee stopped typing and looked up when Gibbs asked Tony to get Abby up to the squad room; she hardly ever left her lab. Something was wrong. ''On it boss,'' Tony replied sharing a worried look with Ziva and McGee.
Minutes later Abby Sciuto appeared in the bullpen looking as worried as Tony sounded on the phone. ''Hey Gibbs, what's up?'' She asked. Everyone held their breath, as Vance broke the stare and walked back to his office. Gibbs turned round to face everyone who was in 'Campfire' formation, even Abby sat down on McGee's knee. ''Abs, everyone I'm only going to say this once. The Director is sending us on a 'Team building course' we need it. Everyone is going and that's final.'' He finally said in a stern tone as everyone let out a small breath of relief. ''Even you Abs,'' Finished Gibbs in a softer tone, Abby was his favourite. Everyone knew it. ''When do we leave Gibbs?'' Ziva finally piped up. ''6am, go home pack, sleep... Don't be late...'' He answered. Nobody moved they were all stunned. ''GO!'' Gibbs shouted everyone got up in a rush, practically throwing their chairs behind their desks and grabbing their bags. McGee and Abby rushed down to her lab as Tony and Ziva took to the elevator. ''A team building course?'' Tony asked when the elevator doors shut. ''Yes, I am as suppressed as you Tony,'' Ziva asked as Tony simultaneously corrected her idiom, ''Surprised Ziva and yes, but so soon after...'' Ziva sighed as she completed his sentence, ''Jenny... I guess the Director thinks we need it.''
-NEW YORK-
4:30 am.
*Bleep bleep, Bleep bleep*
Lindsay awoke to her alarm ringing telling her it was time to get up. After a quick cup of coffee to wake her up she decided to get in her shower. 30 Minutes later she was out of her steaming hot shower and was getting dressed when her cell buzzed. She looked at her cell and sighed when she saw the ID. It was Danny. Hey Montana, I was thinking saving us both taking our cars and your apartments on the way to the lab, maybe I could give you a lift or something? Perhaps a little breakfast stop too. :-) D x. Lindsay laughed when she read the message, knowing he was lying about her apartment being en route to the lab she help but smile. It made sense to go with Danny; he was right about it saving her taking her car too. Danny, your such a liar but your right (for once :p), pick me up at 5:30? L x. She replied and continued to get ready. Zipping up her leopard print suitcase seemed to be such a hard task for her that it took her a whole 10 minutes to complete. As soon as 5:30 came she was greeted by the sound of light knocking on her apartment door. Hesitant to open it at first she checked her appearance in the mirror to make sure she looked human, at least as human as she could look this early in the morning. Her light brown curls moulded to her face perfectly as she smiled at herself she took a step to the door and opened it. Standing there was non other than Mr. Messer. ''Well hello Miss Monroe, you ready?'' He asked as he saw her small frame lean against the wall. ''Hey Messer, I guess lets go before we're late. Don't want to get on Macs bad side this early.'' She laughed as she went to get her coat and suitcase. Minutes later she was locking her door and following Danny to the elevator with her suitcase. When they approached Danny's car he took her suitcase from her and opened the passenger's door. ''Thanks,'' she mimed as she slipped into her seat and buckled herself in. Danny placed her suitcase in the trunk next to his and climbed in the driver's side.
After stopping for a bagel and coffee they arrived at the lab 5 minutes to 6. Mac, Stella and Sheldon were already there waiting. Danny and Lindsay joined there colleagues and waited for the others. It was dead on 6 when the rest arrived together in a cab. ''Well let's get this over with,'' Flack stated as the others laughed, even Mac had a smile on his face. Flack was still sarcastic even this early in the morning. Adam, Sheldon, and Payton all piled into Mac's SUV leaving Lindsay, Flack and Danny with Stella. Lindsay had fell asleep with her head leaning on the window, Danny and Flack were talking about the latest game Mets game and Stella was humming along to a song on the radio while concentrating on the road. In Macs car, Sheldon and Adam were having an in-depth discussion on their last case, the cabbie killer. Payton and Mac were talking about London and where Mac grew up in Chicago.
-WASHINGTON-
It was 5:50am and Gibbs was stood leaning on his car door, waiting for the rest of his team to arrive. 2 cars suddenly pulled into the Navy Yard Parking Lot; one belonged to Tony and the other belonged to McGee. They had decided to car pool and go in Tony and Gibb's cars. Ziva stepped out of Tony's car, laughing at his previous comment. McGee hurled Abby's suitcase out of his trunk and onto the parking lot's cold, cement side walk. ''Whose going in whose car?'' Abby asked excitedly as she smiled at McGee. ''Well I think I'd rather have you in my car Abby...'' Gibbs said as he picked up her case and placed it next to his in the trunk. ''Favourite,'' Tony scoffed as he folded his arms. ''McGee you and Ziver go with Tony, I'll take Abby meet you there at 1pm, got it?'' Gibbs stated, ignoring Tony's outburst. '' Yes Gibbs,'' Ziva agreed as she turned to get in Tony's car. Ziva hated sitting in the back seat so she swiftly hurried to the passenger seat, knowing full well Tony would not let her drive. Unfortunately McGee also hated sitting in the back and got to the door first seen as though he was closest anyway. ''Humph'' sighed Ziva as she opened the back door and slipped in. ''See you later boss,'' Tony said while throwing McGees case in his trunk. He sat down in the driver's seat, adjusted the rear view mirror and started the engine. Ziva had fallen asleep, head resting on the window. McGee and Tony were talking about what they were going to be doing on the course. ''I'm telling you Probie, these courses aren't good for ya, they make you weak.'' Tony explained slowly to McGee. ''I don't know Tony, maybe we need it.'' McGee challenged as Ziva stirred when they hit a pot hole. ''You know you look tired Tony, maybe I should drive for a bit...'' McGee suggested when he saw his friend shake his head to keep him awake. ''Thank you McObvious but I am fine.'' Tony replied. ''Sure, or maybe I should wake Ziva and she can drive...'' McGee joked, knowing that they would probably die in some horrible car accident if she drove. ''No way, here next gas station we'll swap Kay?'' Tony confessed his tiredness. Tony was in luck, less than 10minutes later they saw a Gas Station, he pulled in and saw Gibbs was there filling up too. Abby bounced out of the store with a coffee for Gibbs and a Caf-Pow for herself. ''Hi guys...'' Abby shouted before McGee stopped her ''Shh... Zivas sleeping,'' he put his finger on his lips. ''Oh right... well see yous,'' Abby skipped over to Gibbs who was just about to get back into the car when she passes him his coffee. ''Good job, Abs.'' He smiled when he took his first sip. Tony and McGee switched places, but Tony decided to sit in the back because there was more room. Ziva stirred when McGee stalled the car before finally setting off. ''Sure this is a good idea Probie? Wake me when you feel tired...'' Tony said before letting the exhaustion take over him.
