'Kensi, No!' Callen yelled into his earpiece running up to stand with Sam.
'Kensi stay awake. Stay with me!' and the team listened as Callen's calm collected mask of steel slipped away as his family lay bleeding 60 meters above him. He was shouting into his earpiece ordering Kensi to stay awake but he didn't stop until Sam lay a hand on his shoulder and Callen turned and walked away to meet the ambulance smashing his fist into the wall in frustration.
Sam climbed up to find Deeks already there. They Sam slowly lifted her and started down the steep stairs silently hoping he didn't slip.
'G we're almost down.' Sam told Callen and he ran back inside to meet them closely followed by the paramedics. Callen stopped at the sight of Sam walking forward with a limp Kensi in his arms. Deeks walked behind him face white and body trembling. Callen noticed the tears that were silently dripping down his face that he quickly wiped away as soon as he realized Callen was looking.
As Kensi was lifted onto a stretcher Deeks held her hand and refused to let go.
'Kensi!' He yelled at her still body. 'Wake up! Princess! Fern! Please?' Police had arrived at the scene and tried and failed to convince him to stand back.
Deeks felt two strong pairs of hands pull him back but he kept struggling. He lashed out and he felt Sam and Callen's grip loosen a little but as soon as he tried again their grips were back – tighter this time.
Deeks knew he was powerless against these men so he watched helplessly as they loaded Kensi into the back of the ambulance and take off.
Deeks twisted free of Sam and Callen and took off to his car where the keys lay waiting on the seat. He tried to force them into the ignition but he was soon stopped by Callen's hand on his shoulder.
'I'm driving.' He said and Deeks knew better than to argue with him. He walked around and got in the passenger seat.
'Deeks, Kensi is strong she can pull through anything. She'll be up and about in a week.' Callen's reassuring tone filled the silence but Deeks didn't want to hear it.
'She was dead G. Dead. When I got there she was gone. Sam gave her CPR and all I could do was watch.'
'Deeks-'
'No! Don't tell me she's alive because for all we know she could be dead. She. Was. Dead.' Deeks sighed and ran his hand through his hair and rested his head on the window and watched the trees whirl by.
'We'll find them Deeks. Whoever did it we will find them.' Callen said.
'And when we do I'm gonna kill 'em' Deeks muttered.
'Deeks if you get too involved in the case like this Hetty will take you off it.' Callen reminded him.
'Well I'll just control myself in front of her.' Deeks replied.
'Deeks, Hetty is a ninja I'm pretty sure she is gonna know.' Deeks rolled his eyes and stared back out the window.
When they arrived at the hospital Sam and Hetty were already waiting.
'Miss. Blye is in a stable condition and you can see her now if you wish. Mister Deeks, I believe it's best to tell your team now rather than they find out later.' Hetty nodded and walked away.
Deeks ignored Callen and Sam's questions and made his way to Kensi's room.
'What the hell is Hetty talking about?' Sam demanded shutting the door to Kensi's room and standing in front of it so there was no way out for Deeks.
'Fine. I left Kensi without backup. I was keeping watch below her, I saw someone move and followed them. I shot them and we have him in custody. That's when I heard a shot and then Kensi told us into our comms that she'd been shot I ran back and she was. Gone.' The blonde ran his hands through his hair.
'You what!?' Callen yelled and Deeks flinched.
'Listen up Shaggy. Kensi is one of the family here at NCIS and she's kind of our little sister. You know. The one that we are overly protective of. And if she doesn't wake up you better run. Fast.' Callen threatened . Deeks stepped back and ran right into Sam who was standing behind him with his arms crossed over his chest. Deeks swallowed hard and made for the door.
'Oh no, you aren't going anywhere. I think you better stay here and explain to Kensi why you weren't there fast enough.' Sam smirked at Deeks pale face.
'She'll kill me!' Deeks managed to get out.
'You nearly killed her.' Callen said eyes flashing and Deeks knew that either way someone is going to want to kill him.
A nurse walked into Kensi's room and Callen and Sam noticed it wasn't Kensi's nurse.
'Who are you?' Sam asked watching the nurses every move.
'I'm filling in.' The lie took a second long to think of and everyone noticed. They ignored the small lie and watched her insert a needle into Kensi's arm.
'What's that for?' Deeks asked eyeing off the needle that had just been inserted into Kensi's wrist.
'Fluids.' The nurse replied hurriedly and left the room just as Kensi flat lined.
Deeks didn't stop to check Kensi the anger and adrenalin was too intense as he ran out the door and sprinted after the retreating back of the nurse.
He jumped and landed a blow in her shoulder she whipped around kicked him in the thigh. Deeks grit his teeth together and punched her in the jaw. She stumbled back and pulled a gun out of her pocket. Deeks dodged her shots and she soon ran out of bullets. She hurled the gun at him and his reflex was slightly slow. It caught him just under his eye. He didn't have time to feel the pain before he lashed out at the woman again. He kicked her in the stomach and she fell to the ground. Deeks remembered he had a gun and pulled it out. He pointed it at the woman's head and she sighed in defeat. Deeks took the safety off the gun and he started to pull on the trigger before a strong hand wrapped around his gun and he looked up to see Callen shaking his head at him.
'Do you really want to explain to Hetty that after the suspect surrendered you shot her anyway?'
Deeks let his arm fall limply at his side and watched as Sam led the woman to the waiting car outside. She turned and looked back at Deeks and winked. Deeks let his gun drop to the floor, turned and walked away.
