Tim McGee was losing it. After a he had walked into a house and found a bomb he had alerted the team and everyone panicked just to find out three hours later it was an inactive countdown bomb. Of course Tony and Ziva were busy making Tim the rear end of their jokes. Tim. He was never called Tim on the team by anyone. To the team he was just McGee.

'I just don't know what's wrong with me. I call them Ziva and Tony don't I? I don't make remarks about them. I never call them probie or DiNozzo or David. I've never embarrassed them or glued there fingers to their keyboard or play some other prank on them. ' Tim thought sadly to himself.

Like the jerk Tony was he started making another joke about 'McPanic' and how I couldn't tell an active bomb from an inactive bomb.

Not being able to take anymore crabbed my gun and got out of there storming past Gibbs on my way out. I had to go someone where I had a real teammate that always had my back, and she will always have my back.


Setting a rose down by her grave I smiled down at it. "I miss you Kate." I whispered. "I miss you two Tim." A voice from behind whispered. I turn around to find a life sized Kate in a white sleeved shirt and a white skirt. "Kate?" I said aloud before I put my hand on her shoulder. It stayed there it was like she was really there!

Wrapping her in a hug I inhale her sent. "You look the same as ever." I tell her. "You too Tim." Once I let go of her she took my hand and leaded me in the direction of a grassy field. "Come on a walk with me." She tells me. "So what's up?" She asked. "Well, a woman named Ziva took your place and she and DiNozzo are very busy finding every excuse to tease me. But Kate I don't care how much the rest of the team likes Ziva I will always wish it was you there instead."

"That's sweet Tim. If you remember DiNozzo and I used to tease you."

"Yeah but you weren't as bad. You always kept DiNozzo in line and Gibbs loved you like a daughter, not to mention you were always there for me and knew when to stop teasing me. But I would tease you back. But Kate I don't know what to do anymore I'm on the verge of quitting."

"Tim look at me." We stop walking and I turn to her. "You listen to me McGee you do what your heart says." She moved her hand across my chest. "You do what you think is right. Understand?" She whispers. I nod. Smiling gently she takes my hand and we keep walking. Smiling I begin to tell her about cases and my book.

An hour later I suddenly stop. "Hey Kate I think I just figured out how to finish my new book! A pretty Secret Service Agent named Kate quits and she joins the FBI and gets assigned as my partner, and it will be a wonderful start for the two crime stoppers."

"Awww how sweet of you." She tells me. "I try." I mutter. "So have you decided what you're going to do?" She asks me. "Yes I'm going to quit NCIS and join the FBI, hmmm, I wonder if Fornell would take me."

"Of course he would." She tells me with confidence. "I should probably be getting back." I tell her. "Okay go join the FBI!" I chuckle and kiss her cheek. "Thanks Kate."

"Anytime Tim. Good luck." She wraps me in a warm hug before she suddenly disappears. Smiling I head in the direction of NCIS to quit.


Thirty minutes later I stand outside Fornells door and knock. I had just walked into Director Vance's office said I wanted to quit and have clean break, and he agreed so I handed in my badge and SIG and was now waiting outside Fornell's door. He answers it. "Hey Fornell." I greet him. "McGee what are you doing here?" He asks me. "I quit my job at NCIS and now I'm here because I wanted a job with the FBI. He chuckles.

"Really?"

"You bet."

"Well Gibbs must have been stupid to let you go the FBI would be glad to have you."

"They would?"

"Yeah smart Agent like you only comes around one every ten years. You're the smartest computer person out of three agencies, you good at shooting, your not afraid to what has to be done. What's not to like about you? Common we'll go back to headquarters and I'll get you a place on my team Tim."

I smile and follow him. Tim. He called me Tim. Things were really looking up.


Twenty minutes later I was FBI Agent Timothy McGee and had a place on Fornells team along with one other. FBI agent Kevin Miller. He seemed pretty nice. "Get the gear we got a dead civilian near the Washington Memorial. Let's try and get there before the press."

"Oh it!" Kevin and I shout. "Well Tim this is your first case with us. Let's go catch a killer." He said with confidence. "Can't wait." I grin. And I couldn't wait. This was going to be my first case with the FBI and it was going to be amazing. After we solved the case I would go home and finish my book, go to a bar and have a drink to celebrate my new career and play with Jethro. Whenever I got upset I would go to Kate. It was a start.


Alright readers tell me should I continue and if I should will the team get McGee back?
