Chapter 1
It was a normal day at NCIS; Tony DiNozzo was arguing with Ziva David, Tim McGee was on the computer trying to ignore the other two agents, Abby Sciuto was in her lab listening to "Brain Matter" loudly, Donald Mallard (aka Ducky) was telling stories to Jimmy Palmer in autopsy, and Leroy Jethro Gibbs was talking to Jenny Shepard in the MTAC. The only thing that was not normal was the silent approach a young girl from the direction of the elevator. She stood there for a few moments unobserved, watching the scene before her. Finally she spoke up, startling the three unsuspecting agents.
"Excuse me, do you know where I can find Special Agent Gibbs?" the girl stated. Her accent distinctly Israeli.
"Why do you want to know where Agent Gibbs is?" asked Tony who was curious to know.
"I am here to start my job as a field agent." Everyone was startled by what she had just said. Three pairs of eyes stared at her. "Why are you guys staring at me? Was it something I said?" she asked, confusion and concern starting to creep into her voice. 'It is like they did not know I was joining their team. I hope special agent Gibbs knows. Director Shepard said she was going to tell him.' she thought.
Ziva finally broke the silence, "Well, if what you said is true, then we should introduce ourselves. My name is…"
"Ziva David, a former Mossad officer and daughter of the director of Mossad, Eli David. You are Anthony DiNozzo Jr., also known as Tony, you love to pull pranks on your co-workers and are often slapped on the back of the head by Special Agent Gibbs with his hand. You are Timothy McGee, you are a M.I.T graduate and are often helping the forensic scientist Abby Sciuto during investigations. Your team leader is Leroy Jethro Gibbs. He is a former Marine. He has had 4 wives, 3 of which are ex-wives, and a daughter. He has a set of rules that he lives by and teaches to all of you." The young girl stated proudly.
"And how is it you know so much about us?" Ziva questioned with suspicion in her voice. Everyone was shocked at how much she knew about them.
"I know all this because I decided to gather some background information since I will be working with you. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Erin Cexit. And yes, I am 12 years old. But do not be fooled by my age and don't think I am too young. I have completed my training and passed all my exams with flying colors so I could work here." Erin stated. Silence greeted her. Starting to grow impatient, Erin crossed her arms and asked again, "So, is anyone going to tell me where special agent Gibbs is?"
"I'm right here." said Gibbs as he walked towards his desk.
Erin followed, "Hi, I am Erin Cexit and I am supposed to be your new field agent." Gibbs didn't say a thing. All he did was look towards the Director's office and then started to go towards it. Ziva was the only one who knew what this meant. He had no idea Erin was coming. Does this mean that director Shepard never told him or anyone I was coming? thought Erin.
