"You might not want to sit in the boss' seat" Tony said to the woman sitting in Gibbs chair.
The young woman had her feet resting on Gibbs desk, her back towards the team of three that just walked in. She chuckled and threw back her head, her chocolate brown, curly locks falling down the back of the chair. She placed her feet down and spun the chair around to look at the team that just entered. "You must be Tim, Ziva and Tony" she said. "You know Uncle Gibbs and Dad warned me about you, Tony."
"Uncle" Tony gulped "Gibbs? Dad?" He was confused, as were his partners.
"Bella quit scaring my team" Gibbs voice came from behind the senior field agent.
"Come on Uncle Gibbs its fun" Bella pouted. "You and Dad always take my fun away."
"That is our job" he said sweeping down kissing her cheek. "Now what are you doing here?"
Bella sighed getting up from the chair so the team leader could sit at his desk to look at the file that was sitting on his desk. She picked up the coffee that her uncle had set down took a drink, causing the team to blanch because they knew that no one touched the older mans coffee with out getting yelled at. They had deduced that she must be close to their boss because she didn't get yell at.
"As you see we caught the hit men, or hit man and woman in this case. After several hours," Bella said rubbing a hand over her face "we finally got them to tell us who their next hit was. They don't know who hired them and the only way to catch him is to go undercover as them. The couple only knows where the next hit is, not who. The contractor will call them tomorrow night for who they are to hit."
"They are hitting someone at the Marine Ball" Gibbs deduced.
Bella nodded "Yes. We want to stay on the case but we also want your help. As you see, the woman looks like me but we don't have anyone that looks like the man" Bella said pointing to the picture of the man. "That is the other reason I came to you. You have a man that looks like they could be twins."
"Alright" Gibbs said picking up his phone. "Tobias, we are in. Nice job sending Bella. You know I can't say no to her. I'll see you soon." Gibbs closed his phone. "Tony go with Bella. She'll fill you in, on the way to your place. Pack clothes for a few days."
"Actually I want to talk to Leon first" Bella said walking up the stairs.
"Don't be long" Gibbs hollered before throwing the file on Tony's desk. "DiNozzo catch up on the case."
A few minutes later Tobias Fornell walked into the bull pen. "Gibbs" he greeted his best friend. "Thanks for the help."
"Of course. You couldn't send her in alone."
"Wait" Tony blurted out "You're her father?" Both men nodded. "Damn you're like more like Boss man than we thought. How many times have you been married?"
"Twice" Fornell snarled at the touchy subject, before turning to his friend. "You haven't filled them in yet?"
"No. I just about to" Gibbs said as he was slapping Tony upside the head. "Isabella is from Tobias' first marriage. She died giving birth to their daughter."
"Sorry man" Tony apologized.
"You will be if you don't protect my daughter" Tobias warned seconds before issuing another threat "And if you touch her anywhere you shouldn't I will kick the shit out of you."
"DAD!" Bella exclaimed pissed off. "Why did you say that? We are going undercover as a married couple."
"Doesn't mean he can touch you where he wants" Tobias said glaring at the man with Gibbs nodding behind him.
"Don't make me do it" Bella threatened right back.
Both men looked at each other wide eyed. "She wouldn't" Gibbs stated but instead of sounding like a statement it sounded like a question.
"Wouldn't what?" Ziva asked.
"Call our ex wife."
"You know I will dad" Bella confirmed.
Ziva got a big smile on her face "Oh, I like her."
Bella smiled at the Israeli woman "I have a feeling you and I will get along." She then turned back to the older men. "Now Uncle Gibbs you sent me to train with G, what 8 years ago? You both know that I've had some of the best training. Between him and Sam I know enough that IF I get touched in a way I don't want, I can kick his ass."
Tobias walked over to his daughter and kissed her forehead "I just worry about you. It is my job to do that and I will always do that."
Bella sighed "I know dad." Now she felt guilty. "I love you dad."
"I love you too, dear. Now go take DiNutso and get packed up. You need to be at the hotel by 4. One of the team is setting up as a housekeeper, so we will know where, or if, there are any cameras or microphones and set up our own. Be careful" he said before looking at Tony. "Watch each others backs."
"Lets roll DiNozzo" Bella said walking to the elevator.
