Okay folks.

This is a prologue.

It's a sequel to Fiction Into Reality, but this can be read separately. FIR is just basically a story of how Tony and Ziva came to be together, so if you want to get some back-story, you can go ahead and read that :)

But basically all you need to know is that Tony and Ziva are together.

Disclaimer: Let's put a proper one at the beginning. I don't own NCIS or any of its associated characters or intellectual properties.

Hello, Tony. May I call you Tony? Oh I'm sure you don't mind.

You don't know me. But I know you. Extremely well, as a matter of fact. I feel as if there is a strong connection between the two of us. Like Tango and Cash or Riggs and Murtaugh. Unfortunately, we haven't had the pleasure of officially meeting yet, but I believe we could be great friends if I proved to you that I am worthy of your friendship.

You see, I know that you are a great agent, but I feel as if you haven't been given a proper opportunity to demonstrate your capabilities. I'm sure you would agree with me if I told you that you had the makings to be a terrific main character. I'm certain you have dreamed of being the hero in your own movie and that is why I am here. To give you that chance.

Naturally, every hero must have a leading lady who in your case seems to be the lovely Ms. David. Right about now you're probably wondering where she is. Not to worry! She is perfectly safe. For now.

I do apologize, but what's a movie without some suspense and drama? Am I right?

That was rhetorical. Of course, a movie buff like you would agree. But I am getting off topic.

Here's how it works. I will provide you with the general outline of your movie. You can call me…The Director. But I will give you some artistic freedom and let you play out the ending on your own.

I'm sure you'd appreciate that. See, I can feel us becoming friends already!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm digressing again. But you of all people know how easily that can happen. Once one starts chattering away, it is hard to get back on track. But this is the last time.

I'm sure you're simply dying with excitement to read the synopsis. I will not keep you waiting any longer.

Also, I feel like I should mention that I'm casting myself as the bad guy here because every great movie needs a good old-fashioned villain. But I'm sure you know I'm only trying to help you.

Anyway, here it is. Tadaa.

"A dashing federal agent receives a mysterious letter one day. He discovers in horror that the woman he loves has been kidnapped and only he can save her. The villain has left him a series of clues for him to find. Can the courageous golden boy figure out what they mean before it's too late? Or will he suffer the same fate as many have before, destined to roam the world as a lone wolf?"

So, what do you think? It's good, right. I call dibs on the ownership rights!

Oh I'm just teasing. Of course we will share.

Anyhow, I will leave you to it then.

Oh.

I almost forgot. Your first clue. Silly me. You know how some things just fly right from your mind?

I knew you would.

The first clue is in the letter.

No, but seriously. What do you think?
