They found him with his arms around his knees, rocking silently back and forth, mumbling incoherent things, with big eyes looking at them. When one of them entered the cell, he pressed himself against the wall and whimpered. This man, was broken.

"Tony.." the man with silver hair reached out a hand for him. He whimpered again and pressed himself against the wall, shaking his head. If he wasn't here, Carmen would die. She would die and it would be his fault. "Tony, come on, come with us" the silver haired man said. When Tony again shook his head, Gibbs sighed. "Look, I'm too old to carry you out of here, so come on" Gibbs said. Tony looked like a caged animal and swung out with surprising force against Gibbs, who gently grabbed his arm and pulled Tony with him out of the cell, while Tony was kicking and screaming. "Hey! Take it easy! We're only here to help you!" Gibbs growleed and held Tony in a firm grip. The medics arrived and pulled Tony out of Gibbs's strong grip, drugged him, and secured him on the stretcher, then left.

"Jesus H Christ" McGee said, "Did you SEE that? He wouldn't leave this..horrible place!" McGee said.

"Something must have happened to seep him in here" Ziva said.

"Keep" McGee corrected.

"What?"

"Stop it you two" Gibbs said, with a surprisingly gentle voice, a voice McGee had only heard once before, when Kate had died. "We figure out what they did to him, then we figure out who they are, and then...we'll take them down with whatever force is nessecary" Gibbs said calmly, "I'm calling Duck to go sit with Tony while we work" Gibbs mumbled and stepped out of the damp cells. They had found a woman who was starved to death, and by the looks and feel of it, wouldn't have been long until Tony had followed her into death. Gibbs had grabbed the woman's dogtags and Ducky would have to examine her later. Right now he needed him to sit with Tony so he wouldn't be scared.He picked up his cellphone and speed dialled Ducky.

"Did you find him?" Ducky asked. Gibbs smirked. Ducky had been worried ever since Tony disappeared four months ago.

"We found him" Gibbs replied.

"Thank heavens" Ducky said.

"I need you to go to the hospital so he won't be scared" Gibbs said, "He's on his way to Bethesda, make sure they don't throw him in the Mental wing, we just got him back and I'm not loosing him again" Gibbs said, "Tell them I'll take care of him" Gibbs finished.

"Right" Ducky said and hung up on Gibbs. Gibbs wasn't even mad about it. He felt empty. Then he stepped back into the damp cells and looked at his team. His team that wouldn't be complete until Tony returned to active duty.

"Come on people, shoot and sketch" Gibbs growled. McGee and Ziva got right to work, and Gibbs started to look around. The cells wasn't big enough for two people to live in them, barely one could live there. The mental image of finding Tony entered his mind. They had been walking down the corridor, guns raised, after intel from Tobias Fornell that Tony may or may not be on the location. Gibbs had taken the lead and they walked down into the damp cells. The first thing they found was the dead woman. They heard mumbling and stepped further into the darkness. Then they saw him, arms around his knees, rocking gently back and forth, mumbling incoherent things. Tony was broken.

Broken.
