'I wonder if there's a movie reference for the situation Tony and I find ourselves in.' The black haired woman pondered as she glanced at her companion and saw the familiar look in his eye that conveyed his similar thoughts.
Riley Antoinette Black-Gibbs was silent as she watched the door to the office swing open, and in walked Jenny Sheppard, the occupant of the office that she and Tony currently sat in. Jenny was silent as she walked around her massive mahogany desk to sit behind it. She looked at Riley and Tony hoping that this was a nightmare. But she knew it was very much her reality.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" The director of NCIS questioned. Riley Black-Gibbs and Anthony DiNozzo glanced at each other before facing Sheppard with grim resolution set on their faces. The director nodded once sharply before reaching across her desk to two folders that sat upon it. She glanced at the top one before pushing it across her desk toward Tony and then sliding the second un-opened one to Riley. Each picked up their folders, looked briefly at them, and closed them before looking back up at Jenny.
She looked for any doubt or hesitation in their eyes about this decision.
"I took your choices into consideration and I found a place for both of you in the same city," Jenny informed them. She noticed the pair's stiff stance relax at the news, seemingly as if a weight had been lifted from them. "However you both will be working with different branches. Tony, you will be working at the NCIS office in LA where your good undercover skills are of value. Riley, im sorry to say that at the end of this working day, you will no longer be employed with NCIS," The director watched as their faces stiffened at the unexpected news. Riley nodded her acknowledgement and motioned for the other woman to continue.
"You will now be working with the FBI in LA; there you have your own team that will be yours and only yours to command. The names of your team are in your folder. Both of you are expected to be at your assigned work places by next Monday at 0800. Report to your new employers as soon as you arrive." The two nodded before standing up and starting for the door, each lost in their own thoughts before the silence was broken by Jenny Sheppard's voice, "Good luck to both of you. You will be missed."
