Deeks gets out of his last class of the day and heads for the car that Ray left him and tosses his bag in the passenger seat of the car and shakes his head having a bad feeling about something as he gets to El Camino Bar&Grill and walks inside to see his friend Nell sitting at the bar area and he walks behind her and wrap his arms around her and she jumps and turns around and smacks his arm which causes him to laugh, "Marty don't scare me like that."

He smirks and kisses her cheek, "Not that mind seeing you but what doing here at 3:45?"

She rolls her eyes at him, "Haven't seen you around and worried so came to check on you."

He takes a drink of her tea, "I got a new place and been running into my father lately who wants to talk."

She shakes her head frowning, "I can fix that if want to."

He groans and frowns, "Don't need you to lose your job and get into trouble over me but thanks for the offer."

Another waiter sets her order on the bar, "Visitor wants to see you over there," he points to a table across from them.

Deeks looks to where he's pointing and see his father there and shakes his head, "Nothing have to say to him."

Just then 3 gangsters walk into the place and walk up to the bar and pull out their weapons and stare at the two teenagers and all of a sudden start to fire all over the place and Deeks dives for Nell, "Stay down and quiet," he whispers in her ear.

Nell waits until the shooting is over and looks at her friend on top of her and see the blood on his shirt as she moves him off of her slowly and pulls out her phone and hits speed dial 3 and waits for answer, "Wake up Marty!" She said to him.

Callen is at the Mission when his phone starts to ring and see the caller ID says 'NELL' and answers it, "What's up Nell?"

"I am at El Camino Bar&Grill and there was a shooting-" she said and he interrupts her.

"Are you hit?" He asked and see Sam, Kensi, Nate and Joe look at him. "El Camino's Nell is there and a shooting," he tells the others and they head for their cars.

Nell looks to see her friend still isn't moving, "I am not hit but a bunch of others are."

"Okay were on our way and should be there shortly."

Nell sits up getting dizzy as the room starts to spin and see Deeks father staring at them and shortly after she can hear the sound of tires screeching and next Sam and Callen are rushing in with guns drawn looking the place over, "Nell?"

She waves them over, "I am okay."

Kensi looks down next to her friend and see a teenager who looks a lot like her best friend and partner except the hair color and one that Nell has a few pictures on her phone and at home and checks for a pulse and nods looking him over, "Hit twice that can see in the chest."

A man walks over and stands by Nell and Kensi whose trying to stop the bleeding, "How is he?"

Kensi looks at Nell who looks mad and at the man looking concerned, "Losing blood but paramedics are on their way."

Callen walks over not noticing he had cut his hand on some glass and hands Kensi a towel as he presses down on one of wounds, "What's his name?"

Nell is barely conscious and Brandall answers not knowing his son had changed him last name, "Marty Brandall."

A paramedic comes over and they rush him to the ambulance and Kensi looks over and see Callen is bleeding, "Cut your arm G?"

He looks down and realizes it, "It's nothing for now but you okay Nell?"

She nods feeling really dizzy, "He protected me from the shooting and I ended up hitting my head on the floor."

Kensi looks over the place and her friend, "Let's go to the hospital and check it out and make sure your friend is okay."

at the hospital

Callen, Sam, Kensi and Nell walk into the hospital where Kensi goes with Nell to get looked at, "I will stay with her and find out anything," Kensi tells them.

Sam nods and looks at his partner, "Now to get your arm looked at G."

Callen frowns at the thought, "No just needs some bandages and will be fine."

Sam chuckles at his partner stubborn attitude, "You can do this here and get it over with or go back to the Mission and have Hetty do it there and send you home?"

A nurse sees his arm as Sam drags him to an open room, "What you think happened G?" Sam asked.

"Not sure. Nell called and said there was a shooting. Eric is running the blood samples through the system and see what can come up with."

"What you make of the weird look Nell was giving that man that was standing behind her and the kid?"

Callen recalls how the man and kid look a bit a like and wondered if they were related but Nell said nothing and seemed to be glaring daggers at the man, "Not sure but lets ask her when done here and see what she can tell us about this."

Kensi waits with Nell, "So you know the teenager?"

She just slowly nods trying to stop from being dizzy, "Yeah I live next door to this noisy couple who have a bunch foster kids all of the time and a couple of years ago I met him one day after he just got there and he was scared to death after the man punched him for mouthing off or something and I helped him."

Kensi sighs feeling for the teen, "Seems like a good kid."

Sam and Callen walk in the room, "How's the head?" Sam asked looking at her.

A nurse look at the group, "A few stitches and can go home."

"Nell who was the older man that seemed to be watching the teen? Also the one you were glaring at whole time?" Callen asked.

Nell sighs, "That was Marty father. He told me once that one day when he was 11-years-old his father beat him and mother so badly when he was drunk and decided to hold a loaded shotgun to her head he had to shoot his father to protect him and his mom. His mom died a year later and been in and out of homes for the last 3 years. I met him at the first home."

Callen shakes his head remember how bad it was for him, "So his father was there?"

She nods, "He has been trying to talk to him but of course he wants nothing to do with his father."
