Woops forgot to put a disclaimer anyways I do not own NCIS or any of the characters (obviously) sooooo hears the next chapter!

Tony's Pov

By Tony's 8th week of boot camp he was longing for his nice, safe and warm desk at NCIS and not doing the gruesome pull ups he was forced to do. He missed being able to pester McGee and Ziva all da-Stop! He told himself. Being in the marines is being able to put them before your friends and family. Tony didn't even know what was happening when all the sudden he realized that there was a crowd around him. He stopped and let go of the bar not even sure how many he had done. All of his "Family" was staring at him with mouths agape. Even the drill sergeant….

"Why is everyone staring at me like that?" He asked the man to his left. He was answered by his first 'real' friend he had made on base.

"Do you even realize how many pull ups you did?" He asked slowly. Tony looked at him strangely

"Ummmm no, I wasn't keeping count. I was kinda lost in thought." He answered sheepishly.

"You at least did over 100…in a 10 min period!" John said un-believingly. "Oh! Ummmm…..well didn't mean to do that… we were only supposed to do 5o right? Well then I'll go run the obstacle course now…." He said awkwardly. He ran as fast as his legs could carry him to the course before anyone could see his bright red flushed face.

The Teams Pov

"Gear up, possible Marine Serial killer!" Gibbs yelled.

"Where at, Boss?" McGee asked.

"Paris Island- Marine Boot camp" Gibbs answered shortly. And with those words Ziva and McGee stopped dead in their tracks.

"What?" Gibbs asked when he looked back to see them not following him. "Uh-Uhm B-Boss, T-That's W-Where T-Tony's S-Stationed…" McGee stuttered quietly, looking in disbelief. Gibbs's face remained neutral but inside he was shaking with fear. Without a word he turned around and walked to the elevator.

"Are you two coming or not?" He called over his shoulder.

When they finally arrived to the scene they all exhaled, the body wasn't Tony. The man looked like he was in his late 20's early 30's. While Ziva and McGee took pictures and sketched the crime scene Gibbs talked to the Staff Sergeant in charge.

"What do you know about this marine Sergeant Chamblee?" Gibbs asked. "His name is Jonathan Nix or Johnny boy as he liked to be called. Great Man lots of potential would have made a fine marine." He answered sadly.

"Do you know who he hung around did he have a lot friends?" Gibbs asked. "Yeah, lots of friends but his best friend is or um.., was Tony Dinozzo." He answered slowly. At these words the whole team froze.

"Here I'll call him over… Recruit Dinozzo!" The old looking Sergeant bellowed across the field. What happened next, the NCIS team was not prepared for. A tall, tan, sweaty, and very FIT looking man came running to where they standing. The man automatically, as if they were his own instincts stiffened up and stood at attention. He was looking no where his eyes looking as if sightless.

"At ease recruit" The gunny said. He immediately relaxed but you could tell he was still on edge as if bracing for an attack.

"Yes, Staff Sergeant, Sir!", he yelled.

"Explain your relationship with Recruit Nix to these Navy Cops and get back with your platoon. Make it snappy" The Sergeant replied.

He bellowed a loud "SIR YES SIR" and gave a quick salute. After the Sergeant walked away he relaxed, but still on edge. As he looked up he focused on the team with a new look in his eyes but his face betraying nothing but an expressionless mask. They wouldn't have been able to tell if he were mourning over the loss of his friend if it weren't for his eyes filled with sadness.

"Where were you at the time of 0200 and 0300" Gibbs interrogated.

"In an interrogation room, sir" he replied with no emotion.

"Your time is up Navy, Recruit return to training NOW!"Tony immediately froze replied with a " SIR YES SIR!" and hauled tail to the obstacle course.
