Fornell sat in the director Shepard's office listening to her ramble on and on about how this was a NCIS case and how Gibbs was in charge blah blah blah. He didn't want to be there it wasn't even his case. Gibbs case of a dead marine had clashed with drug op one of the FBI teams are running. They believe one of the main dealers was the one who killed the marine.
The team leader who was running the drug op had passed it on to Fornell when he found out that Gibbs was the leading agent on the case. Fornell wasn't surprised none of the other agents at the Hoover building liked working with Gibbs. Fornell didn't mind Gibbs was a good agent and they worked well together.
"Agent Fornell are you listening to me?" The director voice cut into his thoughts.
"Yeah" Fornell said tiredly
"No you weren't"
"Then why ask me if you knew I wasn't" He looked at Gibbs "Why do women always do that?" Gibbs shrugged fighting to keep the smile of his face.
"I said Agent Gibbs is in charge of this case and you will run everything through him. Do I make myself clear Agent Fornell?" Director Shepard finished with a smug grin.
God he hated her.
He looked at Gibbs and saw him grinning. He couldn't believe that Gibbs was going to go along with this.
Fornell knew he wasn't an angel when it came to working with Gibbs. He tried and sometimes succeeded stealing cases of Gibbs, he declared jurisdiction nearly every time they worked on a case together but he never, not once tried to tell the other man what to do. Gibbs wasn't a junior agent he had years of experience Fornell trusted him to make the right decisions. Why couldn't Gibbs trust him like that?
While these thoughts were running through his head anger bubbled over. Sick of the smug faces of Gibbs and the director he jumped to his feet and grabbed Gibbs by the front of his shirt and slammed him into the wall.
"You listen to me the only reason I'm here is because not one other agent in the FBI is willing to work with you cause you are a first class bastard!" He slammed Gibbs against the wall again ignoring the director's demands that he should let go, no way Gibbs deserved this. Gibbs for his part was too stunned to do or say anything. What the hell had gotten into his friend?
"Well now they can add me to that list. You and me are done now I don't want anything more to with you." With that said Fornell picked the taller man up off his feet and hurled him across the room. Gibbs slammed into the drinks cabinet and Fornell stormed out of the room ignoring the squealing voice of the director.
Tony and McGee were carrying evidence boxes Fornell hit the bottom of the boxes sending the contents flying into the air. He stormed into the elevator and wearing his 'look at me and die' face. He hit the button with so much force he almost broke his finger.
