Abby/Ducky/Gibbs
Chapter One:
Abby is in her lab running evidence for the team on a case. She decides to go down and speak to Ducky.
Abby stood in her lab behind her computer with The Cure playing in the background on full pelt. She stared at the data in front of her. Not really taking notice of what she was staring at she took long sips of her Caf-Pow. How long had it been since she smiled? How long had it been since she really smiled? Why didn't he notice her? He never paid attention to her anymore. He didn't supply her with any Caf-Pow any more and come down to talk to her in between cases. He just sat at his desk staring hazily into space. This definitely wasn't her Gibbs.
The computer eventually became the center of Abby's attention again and she picked up what she was looking for. She decided to tell ducky about it.
Abby pushed the button on the elevator. 'Ding' Abby arrived in autopsy. Abby stepped out. She held the evidence in her hands on a piece of paper. She handed the piece of paper to Ducky.
"Ah, Abigail, how are you, I haven't seen you as of late, what have you been up to all this time, hiding out in your lab?"
"Not much Ducky"
"Are you alright Abigail, you sound down in the dumps?"
"I am okay Ducky. What do you think about the evidence?"
"Are you sure it's me you should be asking, shouldn't you be asking Gibbs?"
"Gibbs is busy; I thought I'd get your opinion" Abby insisted without any emotion.
"Well, I am a doctor not a NCIS agent, but I'll do my best, I haven't got the body back yet so please do excuse my lack of knowledge, care to give me a run down?"
"Sure Ducky, A female marine around the age of 32 was found dead last night while at home cooking dinner for her family. She has two children aged 4 and 7. Care to hear what I've found?"
"Always Abigail, go ahead."
"I found large traces of mercury in her system, now that's not something you find often, someone taking large amounts of mercury deliberately."
"She would have to have been poisoned; her levels are way above therapeutic level. Nice way to go out, her kidneys are probably fried. Not to mention she probably went crazy before her death."
"Not nice, why would anyone kill someone with mercury?"
"They probably wanted to inflict a lot of harm on them, and cause them torture. It wouldn't be fun, she probably died in terrible pain."
"Life isn't nice to some people. Makes you think a lot working here doesn't it Ducky?"
"Yes Abigail. Yes indeed it does."
