Chapter two

Please leave a review

Gibbs glanced at his surroundings with a sigh as he hugged his coat closer to his body, the chill of the morning biting into his skin.

Grey walls surrounded them, some bare, some clothed in different coloured graffiti, covered in shapes and words that made little sense. Plastic sheets covered the doorless frames of the building, the cloudy white of the plastic hiding what ever lurked behind them.

The dusty floors were surprisingly free of any litter, no beer cans from teens that had nothing better to do, no empty syringes from homeless drug addicts and no debris of glass from broken windows.

The building looked as if it had not even been finished; the second and third floors having no protective barrier to stop people falling off the edge, the scaffolding still leading the way towards the gaping holes in both floors, where the wall was meant to be.

The body had been placed in the direct centre of the room, hanging from chains that were attached to the rafters, the chains only just long enough to reach the ground floor.

"Gibbs, one question?" Ziva's voice broke through his thoughts, prompting him to turn and look at her.

"Yeah?"

"How did they know they know who she was?" Ziva asked after moment, continuing when Gibbs frowned at her. "The builders, how did they know who she was, I mean she had no ID considering she is unclothed, we have found no evidence of a bag or jacket…"

Finally understanding what she was saying, Gibbs nodded and looked briefly at the builders that stood just outside the door before swiftly making his way towards them, ducking under the yellow tape.

"Which one of you called NCIS?" He asked. The man in front stepped forward with a smug smile.

"That'll be me man. Tommy Granger…" he said.

"I am gonna have to ask you to come with me." Gibbs explained reaching out for the man, even as he jumped backwards away from the agents touch

"Hey, I ain't going anywhere with you!" he shouted, his hands flailing in all directions.

"Having trouble, boss?" DiNozzo asked, coming to stand beside Gibbs. The man looked from Gibbs to Tony, then to Gibbs again.

"I am not going to ask you again…" Gibbs warned, while DiNozzo stepped forward with handcuffs dangling in his hands.

Suddenly Tommy swung a left hook, knocking Tony to the floor, he then swung right, gasping as Gibbs caught his elbow, and slammed him hard into the wall. He grunted when the older man twisted his arms painfully behind his back, slapping the cold metal of the cuffs onto his wrists.

Looking back at DiNozzo as he threw Tommy into the back of the truck. The senior agent was getting up from the floor, clutching his nose which flowed heavily with blood. Ziva stood beside him, a small smile on her face.

"This is, how many times you have had your nose broken?" she mocked, DiNozzo grimaced, glaring at her.

"DiNozzo, go get that checked out, McGee go with him, Ziva you're with me."

Chuckling silently to herself, Ziva made her way over and hopped into the passenger side of the truck.

XxX

When they had reached headquarters, Ziva had immediately pulled Tommy from the truck and had fairly forcefully escorted him through the corridors of NCIS, trying hard to ignore the shouts and complaints that he yelled for all to hear.

When they finally arrived at the interrogation room, she forced him down onto the chair, threatening that if he so much as moved she would put a bullet in each of his kneecaps.

She had left the wide eyed builder alone to make her way into the bullpen: she wasn't surprised to see it empty. Sighing, she stretched her arms above her head and made her way across the room. Booting up her computer, a white box flashed annoyingly on her screen. Two words in bold letters standing out.

Clicking the message she gasped and what suddenly appeared on her screen.

XxX

Having a cold autopsy room was something of a requirement, and so there was a certain icy chill that always seemed to hit you when you walked through the doors, but when Ducky sauntered in to autopsy, removing his coat and hat, the icy nip that hung in the air seemed to bite at his skin more than usual.

Shivering he ambled towards a covered body, lifting the white sheet and looking at the woman that lay beneath it. "Ah, my dear, looks like you met a truly terrible demise." He said to her, shaking his head.

He had almost finished the autopsy when Gibbs walked through the doors, taking long tired strides towards the medical examiner and the body. His blue eyes fell to the young woman's face, lingering for only a second.

"Good morning, Jethro." the ME said happily, removing his blood covered gloves.

"What do you have, Duck?" the agent asked, getting right to the point. Ducky sighed, a look of sadness passing over his aged features.

"Ah Jethro, this poor girls death, was slow and painful. From the looks of it, she was most probably tortured." He explained, pointing to the many burns on her body.

"What killed her?" Gibbs asked.

The doctor pointed to a wound just above her hip. "She was stabbed, with a knife, most probably with a serrated edge. She bled out."

"Time?"

"In the early hours of the morning, I would say between five and six am. Who knows how long she suffered…"

The doors to Autopsy opened, drawing both Gibbs and Ducky's attention. Ziva walked through the doors and with a small smile stopped in front of them.

"Ah Ziva my dear girl, welcome back." Ducky greeted with a joyful smile. The Mossad assassin looked down at the body of Claudia Cole, swallowing hard.

"What brings you down to Autopsy?" Ducky asked.

Ziva didn't hear him and instead, she stared down at the woman on the table, her hands twisting nervously.

"Ziver?" Gibbs voice broke through her thoughts, making her jump. Suddenly she realised she had spaced out.

"Oh, right yes. Gibbs, there is something you should see" she said quietly, staring up at him through dark lashes.

Ducky took a closer look at her face as she spoke quietly to Gibbs, the scars from her time in the prison still faintly visible against the olive tan of her skin. He frowned at glanced at the body, the pattern and method of the wounds flawless in comparison.

He inspected the body closer. When he looked up again, Both Ziva and Gibbs had left, the door just sliding closed behind them.

Tony touched his face lightly with his hand, wincing slightly as his fingertips came into contact with the thick white bandages that protected his nose. Looking into his computer screen he glanced at the reflection that stared back at him, the growled.

"How many more times is this gonna happen!" He shouted, louder than necessary, causing a few people to glance over at him. He turned to McGee, who was unsuccessfully trying to hide a smile.

"What's so funny McElflord ?" Tony asked, rising from his seat.

"No matter what you do Tony, you are the one that will always get his nose broken…" McGee laughed. The senior agent moved towards him with weary movements.

"If I were you I would show me some respect McLoser, I am older, hotter and therefore more superior to you" he announced. "Hey Boss…"

Gibbs walked round the corner, Ziva close beside him. Ignoring his greeting Gibbs stopped at Ziva's desk, his eyes narrowed when he saw what was on the screen.

Three pictures of their latest case littered the computer monitor. All three including Lieutenant Claudia Cole.

Gibbs looked at the pictures that started back at him thorough the light of the computer screen. His hands clutching the mouse tightly, it creaked under his hand.

"When did you receive these?" Ziva shook her head.

"I just turned on my computer and they were there. I don't know who sent them." she answered truthfully.

"McGee..!"

McGee stood from his seat.

"Find out where the email was sent from…on it boss."

"Tony, I need you to get to know everything you can about our victim." Tony nodded and sat down in his chair.

"Ziva I need you to go down and see if Abby has found anything."

Ziva nodded then made her way to the elevator. Gibbs started towards interrogation
