We were studying showing and telling situations in writing and had to write a short story. So I made mine a FanFic.

Enjoy- Love Belle

Ps. Tali is the Tiva baby.

At that moment he was very afraid.

He couldn't see anything, it was too dark. He was lying on his back. He tried to use his hands to feel the walls but they were tied underneath him. His legs were tied together as well, but he used his legs the feel around. He was in a small, cold, metal box thing. Great! Now you've done it DiNozzo! He thought. Tonight was his daughter's first dance recital, he couldn't miss it. Not only did it mean a lot to Tali that he would be there, but it would mean a lot to Ziva as well. He thought of everyone he would miss, all the ones he loved, he wasn't ready to leave them, and he wasn't ready to die, not yet. He started to sweat, his breathing quickened. He started to cry. Minutes ticked by, they seemed like hours.

"Tony!?" his head pricked up at the familiar voice. She ran down the hallways tapping on the many cargo-pods.

"Tony?! Where are you?!" He could hear her. Why couldn't he reply?

"Ziva." He called, but it only came out as a whisper. He thought of his daughter, Tali. He needed to be there for her, he needed to see her grow up and she needed a dad.

"Tony?!" she yelled again.

"Over here!" he was able to finally yell.

"Tony?" she had heard him. He was still alive."Tap on the top of the pod!" she yelled hoping he could hear her. He kicked at the top of the pod. He kicked even harder, she had to find him. The top of the pod was wrenched open. It took a few moments before his eyes adjusted to the light. In front of him stood Ziva, Tears ran down her cheeks. He sat up and Ziva untied his hands. Her knife dropped to the ground with a clatter. She wrapped her arms around his neck, burying her face in his chest crying. He whispered comforting words into her hair as he held her close.

"I thought I had lost you." She sobbed.

"It's okay now." He looked at his watch. 3 hours until Tali danced.

"Come one. We can't miss Tali dancing."

"Ok." Later she she would lecture him about being more careful, but at the moment she was just happy he was alive.

The End.

Okay, First FanFic ever! Be nice.

REVIEW!!!! … please.
