A/N:So I got quite a few favorites and alerts (more than just "a few") but no reviews :/ Kinda disappointed me honestly, I mean, if you can fav or alert, why cant you review? I'm sorry I'm being a little whiney but its upsetting not having any reviews. I hope this will be different. This is going back a few weeks (three to be exact) before the first chapter. PLEASE leave a review and let me know what you think! I REALLY need feedback!
Quit Running You're Mouth DiNozzo, Chapter Two
"Special Agent DiNozzo." Tony answered his desk phone on the third ring after running across the full squad room, dodging people, desks and flying papers. He was slightly out of breath as he sat listening to the person on the other line.
Ziva chuckled softly to herself at Tony's antics. If he had been where he was supposed to be like a good agent instead of flirting with a new female from another bullpen, he wouldn't have had to run.
"McAcklin?" Ziva looked up when Tony said the name of an ex-suspect. Someone they had already put behind bars. "Johnny McAcklin?" Tony laughed this time, "so Johnny how's prison?"
Ziva walked over as she walked over to try and hear the other side of the conversation.
"Well I'm out of prison DiNozzo." Ziva barely heard the voice say.
She looked at Tony's face to see his expression. Vaguely she was aware of McGee and Gibbs as they came up beside her.
"Oh really Johnny? I thought you didn't get out for," Tony pretended to act like he was looking at a calendar, "you know, life?" He had a laugh in his voice.
"Well I am out DiNozzo." Ziva heard, a little better this time. She could also hear the growl in the voice, "and you can bet your pretty white ass that I'm comin'. Comin' for you."
Tony laughed into the phone, "alright Johnny boy. I hope I'm still alive when your life sentence ends!" He hung up.
"DiNozzo?" Gibbs looked at Tony, his ice blue eyes searing into Tony.
"Just a prankster boss." Tony assured what he thought was true. He thought the person was someone pretending to be McAcklin.
Gibbs nodded. Then he gave Tony a swift hit to the back of the head before walking to his desk, his ever present coffee in hand, where he got it, nobody knew.
"What was that for!" Tony yelped.
"What else DiNozzo? Stop flirting." Gibbs snapped. "Do your work." He began to do his own.
Tony sighed and began to organize the files on his desk before putting them in the file cabnint beside his desk. Then he noticed Ziva and McGee staring at him. "What?"
"Just a prankster Tony?" McGee shadowed Tony's earlier words.
"Sounded like he was serious." Ziva's eyes showed concern for her co-worker and questions.
"Guys relax. Its nothing." Tony shrugged. "Now go, go work." He shooed.
Ziva opened her mouth and Tony popped out of his seat and covered her mouth, "shhhh my ninjetic probette," Tony hushed, "just go work my ninja."
Ziva stared into his green eyes and sighed. "Whatever Tony." She turned on her heel and went to her desk.
"Tony, its not nothing when he's threatening you. Prankster or not-" Tony began to run his hands across McGee's face making him stop talking.
"Shh Elf Lord. Just shhh." Tony shushed the computer geek field agent.
McGee stared at Tony when he moved his hands. "Just remember Tony, threatening federal agent's needs to be taken seriously." He went to his desk just like Ziva had.
Tony sat again and got to work. He glanced up and saw Ziva working, she was distracted and glancing at him some. Each time he caught her gaze she'd pause for a moment, and he could see in her chocolate brown eyes the worry she was trying to hide, before she ducked her head down and began to work again.
After Tony came into the bullpen carrying a bag of Chinese food for everyone, his phone rang again. Quickly he set the bag on Ziva's desk as he walked by it. He grabbed his phone and answered. "Special Agent DiNozzo."
"It's me again DiNozzo." Greeted the voice on the other end.
"Johnny, you have weird timing. I'm always rushing to the phone." Tony laughed. "And if you really think your going to be as you so said, 'coming for us', well we put you in prison once right? Or was that, no it was once. But we can easily do it again?"
Ziva looked at Tony in shock. How could he be joking about this to a killer who wanted Team Gibbs dead? How could he do it, so calmly, so relaxed, and almost giddy about this? This was a federal crime the guy was committing. Even if it was a prankster as he said, it was a federal crime to threaten federal agents!
"You better watch out DiNozzo. Someday someone's gonna put your foot in your mouth where it belongs you dumb ass." McAcklin growled.
Tony laughed. "Yes, just like you belong in an electric chair my friend."
Ziva's eyes widened. Was he seriously taunting the killer? Making him pissed off even more?
"I'd learn to sleep with one eye open DiNozzo. Or with a gun like I've seen your Israeli Goddess do." Then, the buzzing of a tone dial.
Tony's eyes grew to the size of saucers. Did McAcklin just say-?
"Tony?" Ziva hurried to his side.
"Zee, I just made a huge mistake." Tony said slowly.
"Should quit running your mouth then DiNozzo." Gibbs sauntered into the bullpen. "No time for lunch. We now have a case. McGee, track that last call and the previous one. Ziva look up everything on McAcklin. See if he did get out. Tony, just sit your ass down and don't you dare answer that phone or say one damn word." Gibbs glared at the special agent who had just put the whole team in danger.
Tony gulped. They were dead meat thanks to him.
