-I do not own NCIS or the Character- I do have respect of the writers and actors who help make this a great show, as well as the people behind the camera! Keep up the good work people.

"Where is Tony?" McGee asked.

"He said he was going to talk to the store owner" Ziva said as she rounded him to take another face shot of one of the two dead marines.

The team was just getting the tape around the pawn shop and street. The crime seemed to be a robbery gone wrong and the out come was two dead marines and a very scared store owner. McGee was just done with his first sketches when a familiar laugh came from behind him.

"I do believe you could do Dr. Seuss books as well McGee, but your writing would have to improve." Tony said as he side stepped and walked over to the Register that was bashed and open.

"You know I am not the normal sketch artist Tony give me a break." McGee retorts.

"Yes Tony, why is McGee sketching as I recall you are our back up." Ziva says as she lets the camera fall and settle at her stomach. She walks over to McGee and looks at the sketch. "What is that?" she asks slowly, her eyes turning to look up at him.

"It's the body." McGee said defensively. "Look Tony why aren't you sketching?"

"Because McGoo, we are in my domain!" Tony shoots back with a grin. Waving his hands outward in a sweeping motion.

"Funny..... I don't see any sheets or a box spring around here?" Ziva retorts smiling at McGee, who smiles back and then Tony.

"Aaaaa, Zivvvvvvvva so much to teach you. This is a crime of the streets, My bread and butter! And that is why I know that his was not a simple robbery." Tony says as he walks back toward them.

"And what makes you say that?" McGee says curiosity taking the better of him.

"So good of you to ask Probie! Look at the register. See anything wrong? Tony

"All money is gone?" McGee says slowly while looking over seeing an empty till, thinking he might be walking into a trap or talking to a monkey.

"Correct Probie, ALL the money. So either they were low laundry or bus money, or this was staged to look like a robbery. There is no way a robber would take the time after killing 2 men to get all the cash including the pennies. It's always grab the bills and run like hell." Tony says the last part in triumph as he strikes a pose. "So as your king.."

Smack! Tony winches as a classic Gibbs smack connects with the back of his head.

"Sorry Boss" Tony says as he starts to dust for prints around the register.

"Or Jester" McGee says but is unable to reap the fruits of his comeback due to the Gibbs stare aimed at him.

Gibbs started to walk to the store exit. "Bag evidence" He says as he takes a sip from his morning coffee, "Finished your kids book McGee?"

So what do you think? this is my first try but I like it so far. I mean hey I even made an outline for the story so don't worry this is have a flow and plenty of TIVA, Comedy and perhaps if I am convinced some other connections. So R&R. I tried to foucus on each of the characters voice so let me know how that felt to you, Ask is this what they would really say! and thank you again!
