A/N- Here's the newest of my 'completed' stories, Uninvited Guests. This idea came about an odd way.

My teacher gave us an assignment to write a story using the caption, "His heart was pounding. He was sure he had seen the doorknob turn" and the picture from Harris Burdick's Uninvited Guests… (If you want to see the pic, google image search "Harris Burdick's Uninvited Guests")

As she gave us the picture, I was stuck for an idea, so I let my mind wander. When my friend made the comment, "Can you see someone hiding a body in the rug?" I realized that I had my idea! I would do a NCIS fic! I asked my teacher and she allowed me too =)

So here it is now! My copy's been handed in (although, I still don't know the mark) so now I can post it here too =)

Ok, so this is the prologue… In this story, there will be a prologue, Chapter 1, 2, 3, and an epilogue….

Now, I've talked long enough… Here we go!

Disclaimers: The title, Quote: "His heart was pounding. He was sure he had seen the doorknob turn", and the picture in the link above belongs to Harris Burdick. And NCIS is owned by CBS… I sadly own nothing other then my original characters =)


Prologue

Norfolk

Morris Residence

03:02

Naval Weapons Technician Mandy Morris was laughing so hard, she was crying. It was her 29th birthday and 4 of her closest friends had come to celebrate the special occasion. They were all sitting in the front room, watching a movie when Petty Officer Amelia Shyla, one of the friends, picked up a pillow and tossed it to another girl. Of course, she retaliated and this turned into a full blown pillow war.

Finally, the war ended, leaving the entire group laughing and giggling on the floor, covered in feathers from the exploded pillows.

Soon the laughter died down and they returned to the movie they had been watching, '27 dresses'.

They sat there watching it until unexpectedly, a loud "BOOM" rocketed through the house. They all jumped in fear as 2 masked people walked in holding guns, trained on them. They screamed again but the masked people shushed them, "Quiet!" the first yelled, even though it was mumbled through the cloth.

Immediately, they all quieted, each praying that they would not be killed. The two masked people pulled off their hoods, revealing their identity. Amelia squealed inaudibly in pure shock, recognizing who they were. The other's gasped too, but theirs were loud and noticeable.

All of the women were in the navy and the two men, John Harm and Alexander White, were ranked just above them and had been hitting on all of them all year. Of course, they all had ignored them. All but one of the women were scared. The one who wasn't, Maddie, knew them well, and was sure they wouldn't hurt her.

"W-w-what are y-y-you doing h-h-here? G-G-Get out of my h-h-house now!" Mandy yelled with fear evident in her voice.

"Aw, that's no way to treat your superior…" John laughed at her.

One of the braver girls, Sally, decided she should try and escape out the back door. She ever so slowly moved along the back of their small group until she reached the end. Between her and the door only stood about 6 feet of a hallway. She quickly made the rash decision to run for it. As she started, Alexander turned and a loud "Boom" echoed throughout the house.

The girls screamed as they saw their friend go down and red pool up on the back of her shirt. The rest of the girls scattered and tried to run for it. Alexander and John started shooting everywhere. Screams echoes and footsteps pounded.

Amelia ran towards the basement as a bullet came her way, grazing her arm. In agony she hurried down the creaky wooden stairs. She picked up the key from cabinet top and fought to open the small half-door that rested against the wall. As soon as the door cracked open, Amelia slipped inside and grasped the door, pulling it closed, just as the door towards the basement opened. Footsteps pounded down the stairs and stopped at the basement.

The last things Amelia heard before surrendering to the darkness that threatened to overpower her was John's voice echoing, as he sprinted back upstairs, "Alex! What have we done?"

"Let's get outta here!" Alexander yelled, already ahead of him, fleeing for the door.

A door was opened somewhere upstairs and Amelia finally couldn't fight the blackness any longer. For the first time ever in her life, she let herself fall into the dark unknown…


A/N- Well, that's it for the prologue! Although there is no NCIS in this part, the next 4 parts have lots! I hope you will still stay with me till then though!

I am going to post each different part ever 2 days. Since today is Saturday, I will try to post them on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and the epilogue on Sunday =)
