And on with the chapter...
Previously:
Things in the Gibbs Mansion really do go bump in the night...
"Jen!" a voice shouted she could hear the undertones of panic and worry.
Suddenly, her husband came running towards her. "Panic room." He said as he handed her a gun.
Glass shattered, windows were being broken into, and the enemy began to get inside.
Abby made a discovery...
"I know these encryption codes Gibbs! They may have hacked out security defences but they did a pretty bad job." Said Abby
"A bad job? Then why are we in the panic room and they are in our house?" said Gibbs
"Jethro, shut up." Said Jenny
"They left a paper trail. Ari is working for Fornell!" explained Abby
Gibbs eyes widened, that fucking son a bitch!
And Gibbs came up with a plan...
"I'm going in," said Gibbs
"The hell you are!" argued Jenny
"Abby activate the flash bombs in section D-54 and B-92." Ordered Gibbs
Two seconds later, the flash bombs went off and then the gun shots began.
Jenny made something clear with her husband...
"In the morning, I'm gonna pay Fornell a visit"
"Abandoning me again?"
"I love you, Jen. But business is business."
"Yeah, Jethro, I know."
But she also said way too much that her husband didn't know about...
"Do you think that the break in had anything to do with the flash drive?" asked Jenny
"What flash drive?" asked Gibbs
Uh oh, thought Jenny.
He was looking at her with curiosity, she couldn't tell exactly what his emotions were, she was waiting for one of his tell-tale signs.
"Would you like to explain?" he asked, his voice wasn't gruff, his tone was neutral
"Not particularly." She said coolly as she ate another French fry.
"I will find out." He threatened her
He wasn't angry per say, he was more worried, he had been on a protective streak lately.
"Well there's a flash drive, its pink." Stated Jenny as she described the flash drive she had bought from the black market.
"What's on it?" asked Gibbs, fishing for more information
"Well glitter, since its sparkly." Said Jenny as she easily side-stepped his question
"You know what I mean Jen." He said, getting straight to the point.
"Enough to lock up the Fornell's except Emily and send all of his little pawns to prison." She stated with a smirk.
Gibbs was less than impressed.
"You steal it?" he asked, trying to get a reaction.
"Bought it, black market from Kurt." She answered. He nodded, seeming satisfied
"And where's the flash drive?"
"That's need to know."
"Yeah? Well I need to know."
"Not this time, honey."
"How you holding up?" asked Tony, nobody seemed to be too shaken up. Of course, they all we're a little bit, there were rarely ever people able to bypass the security of the mansion.
"I'm fine, Tony." Said Kate
"Are you sure?" he asked her, no one knew that they had started seeing each other, but at times like these they let a little bit of their emotions slip through the charade.
"Yeah." Was the short answer Tony received, something was up.
"Katie, you can tell me anything." He tried
"Tony, maybe it's best that we stop seeing each other." Kate said slowly and Tony looked at her as if she was insane.
"What? Why?" he demanded, she faltered, she'd never planned on actually telling him.
Kate took a deep breath before she said what she had to. "I'm pregnant."
Tony stayed silent for a minute but it felt like a lifetime, "Is it mine?" was the first question and Kate wanted to slap him.
"Of course it's yours!"
"How far along are you?"
"Four weeks."
"Oh Kate. I love you!" he murmured as he kissed her deeply.
Jenny slammed the door of the car as she got out and walked towards the mansion. Gibbs was beside her, his hand was casually draped on her hip.
Jenny was eager to see her son, she was getting used to the idea of being a mom.
Noemi and Cynthia met her at the door with Chris in Cynthia's arms. Jenny took the baby immediately.
"Hey baby boy." She cooed, "I've missed you." She continued as she planted a light kiss on his forehead.
They walked upstairs into the panic room. Gibbs opened the doorway and then the three of them went inside. Tony and Kate were waiting for them.
Jenny sat down on a couch with Chris and Gibbs gave Tony a look.
The men walked off together to a separate part of the panic room whilst Kate took a seat next to Jenny.
"Do you enjoy being a mom?" Kate asked cautiously
"I have my moments where I don't but majority of the time, I love it." Jenny answered
"I'm pregnant." Kate stated bluntly, it was better that Jenny knew now
"Who's the father?" Jenny asked warily as she cared for Kate, Kate was like her baby sister
"Tony, in fact we've been seeing each other for six months."
"What are you going to do?"
"Honestly, I don't know. But please do not tell anyone, especially Gibbs."
"Secret's safe."
"I don't want you in the field as much."
"Jenny..."
"Kate, as your boss and as a friend, please listen to me."
"I'm only four weeks."
"Four weeks what?" asked a masculine voice. Gibbs.
"Kate was just telling me that she was four weeks into her new job." Answered Jenny smoothly
"Which is...?" asked Gibbs, he was fishing for information, like always.
"Classified." Stated Tony
Everyone looked in his direction.
"Actually, as my assistant." Said Jenny, everyone's eyes were on Jenny.
"You already have one." Gibbs stated
"Yes, but I need two, is that a problem?" Jenny asked in her, 'don't tell me what to do,' tone with a hint of 'don't question my judgement.' undertones.
Gibbs didn't say a word about the subject; instead he began a new one.
"DiNozzo, go and get Cynthia and Noemi to move some of Jenny and Chris' essentials into here." Gibbs instructed
Tony moved at once and then froze in place at the sound of Jenny's voice.
"Don't take another step Tony or I'll keelhaul you."
Tony looked from Jenny and to Gibbs; both of them were dead serious.
"Boss, I'm kind of in a compromising position here." Said Tony, he didn't want to be in Gibbs' bad books or Jenny's.
"Jethro, this protective streak of yours ends now." Said Jenny, she was finally putting her foot down.
"Now, DiNozzo, don't make me ask again." Growled Gibbs and Tony didn't need to be told twice, he basically ran out of there.
Chris began crying as he could feel the tension in the room.
Jenny swore softly, Gibbs was at her side in an instant.
"Hey, little man. It's okay, mommy and daddy are here." Jenny tried
"Mommy is just being irrational but daddy likes it when she's feisty." Gibbs whispered into Jenny's ear as he kissed it.
Chris was quieter but not he was not in his usual placid mood.
Jenny sighed; she was drained, physically and emotionally. She was ready for bed.
"I can put him down if you like." Kate offered.
"No, Kate, don't be silly. Have the rest of the night off. You must be feeling exhausted." Jenny ordered
Kate nodded and left the room.
"You look tired," Gibbs observed
"I am." Jenny answered
"Go to bed." He told her
Jenny just looked at him and stood up; she put Chris down in the portable cot. She then went and straddled her husband as he was now sitting. She leaned into him, she rested her head in the crook of his neck, shutting her eyes, and she began to relax.
"I need a partner for the night."
"I'm not a slut, Jethro." Stated Jenny
"No," he said as he pinched her ass. "You're fucking beautiful and all mine."
"Jethro!" she squealed and she laughed and then she heard a window behind her shatter.
Pain, intense pain.
She felt the bullet tear through her skin, she felt it puncture through her body, and she knew that the bullet had torn though her lungs, she was finding it impossible to breathe. She had less than a few minutes to live.
She didn't have time to think, her thoughts were on Chris and Jethro.
She loved them both more than anything but she was terrified.
She wanted to cry but she didn't have the strength. She could barely hear the person shouting her name, her eyes were glued shut.
She braced what was waiting for her, death.
Jenny screamed as she woke up, her whole body was in a cold sweat. She couldn't help but let the tears fall. She was hysterically crying, it had all felt so real.
The door to the bedroom was knocked down, Tony, McGee and Gibbs all came running with their guns drawn.
Gibbs lowered his gun and handed it to Tony before sitting with Jenny and comforting her.
"It was horrible! And I swear to God it was real!" she said panicked.
"Shhhh..." Gibbs tried; Tony got her a glass and a jug of water.
"I can't even..." she choked out as she cried more into Gibbs' chest,
"I've got you baby, you're safe." He murmured to her
"Perimeter is clear, Boss." Stated McGee
"Stand down," Gibbs ordered as Tony and McGee scattered.
"Talk to me, Jen."
"I was shot, I died, you and Chris..." She broke off as she let more tears fall down her cheeks
"No one is going to hurt you." He stated firmly
"Jethro, if anything happens to me..." she began
"Nothing is going to happen to you, not now, not ever." He interrupted.
"You don't know that, anything could..." she tried to get him to see from her perspective
"Nothing will ever hurt you, Jen. I won't let them."
"How's Jenny?" asked Abby anxiously, she heard the screaming
"Okay, shaken up." Answered Tim
"She okay's though, right?" Abby demanded answers
"Yeah, Abs," said McGee as he sighed, "She's fine."
Abby hugged Tim tightly before letting go.
"I can't imagine anything happening to her." Stated Abby
"Nothing will, Abby. Gibbs won't let anyone near her."
"I have to go out for a couple of hours; Cynthia and Noemi are watching Chris. He's fine. I'll be back as soon as I can." Said Gibbs
"Okay." She muttered, to be honest, he wasn't expecting her to agree so easily.
He kissed her on the lips, lightly. And then he turned on his heels and left her.
Jenny waited five minutes before she figured it was safe enough to move from her position. She got dressed in a tight black leather suit, which covered her entire body. She put on a pair of leather gloves and she put on a pair of black leather stiletto boots that went up to her knees. She pulled her hair back into a pony tail and she put on some light make-up.
She would have to move around the mansion undetected.
She grabbed her blackberry and she armed herself well. Taking two guns, plenty of knives, a couple of bombs and a lot of bullets.
Finally, she was ready to go. She opened one of the secret entrance's that lead to a tunnel which was her escape. As she walked down the tunnel, she disabled the GSP chip in her phone.
She saw a ladder on her right hand side, she climbed up it and she silently opened the grate entrance above her head.
She climbed up further and took in her surroundings; no-one was in the parking garage.
She was out of the tunnel and she grabbed the keys to the jag, it was black with tinted windows and it was fully equipped.
She opened the car and slid into the driver's seat.
Without further ado, she switched the car on, opened the garage door with the electronic keypad and she floored the accelerator.
The car's tyre's skidded against the floors before the car picked up speed and she was coming up toward the main gate. It was still open as Jethro would have probably gone at least two minutes ago, the car sped towards the gate, and it was beginning to close. She pressed a shiny blue button in the car which in turn made the car go quicker and faster.
Jenny turned right as she made her way to the one place that she knew Jethro would go.
The Fornell's residence.
She had no idea what she was doing but that wasn't going to stop her.
She truly was a woman on a mission.
Pretty please review!
