Bang Bang

15 May 2012...The Navy Yard

"No you don't understand, I have to go home, my daughter and her friends, they're waiting for me," Gibbs protested to the paramedic. "Let me check on them."

"You left your daughter and her friends at your house?" the paramedic questioned.

"Yes and no, they're with my dad but he hasn't called me yet, he was supposed to call at 2, it's already gone 4," Gibbs protested."Just let me see her."

"Excuse me sir, he needs to see Holly, she's got no idea about this," Abby Sciuto piped in, taking Gibbs' side as per usual.

"Ms Sciuto you're in better physical condition, you'd be better suited to go, Mr Gibbs will need to go to the hospital for a check up," the paramedic said.

"Bullshit! Let me see my daughter!" Gibbs snapped.

"Gibbs, I'll go, I'll call you when I get there," Abby reassured Gibbs.

"Let me go! Please!" moaned Jackson Gibbs. He was supposed to be supervising his granddaughter Holly and her friends, Darren, Matt, Jared and Nathan but as soon as Matt had arrived. Holly had tied him expertly to an armchair and gone off to play truth or dare with her friends in the garden.

"Grandpa! I'll let you go in a few minutes!" Holly called through the open door.

"Don't worry Mr Gibbs, you'll be fine!" Matilda, or Matt as she preferred to be called, yelled through the open door.

"Ruddy kids," cursed Jackson.

"Hello! Jack!" Abby Sciuto's voice was music to his ears. "The door's unlocked so... Can I come in?"

"Please do!" Jackson invited, sounding strained.

"What's wrong?" Abby walked in and barely stifled a giggle at Jackson who was looking incredibly sorry for himself.

"She's her father's daughter all right," Jackson muttered. "My own dad complained that Leroy had done the same to him when he was thirteen. Didn't believe him till now."

"Jackson, where's Holly, Matt and Jared?" Abby asked.

"I dare you to kiss a tree!" Holly yelled to Darren from outside.

"No way!" Darren responded.

"Is Leroy okay?" Jackson asked.

"Yes, Gibbs is fine but...oh God!" sobbed Abby. "Matt's dad...He was in the lobby when it happened."

"What happened?" spluttered Jackson.

"Bomb, there was a bomb outside HQ," Abby replied. "At least twenty five dead and more than one hundred missing including Tony and Ziva. How do I tell them? How do I tell Matt her daddy won't be coming home?"

Matt's dad is dead then. I had to kill someone in the bombing though.
