Tony just swallowed hard, he didn't like the look in Kate's eyes. This was going to be a long day.

Kate was bored and annoyed. Tony was pacing since Gibbs left.

"Would you please stop pacing? You're making me nauseous. By the way, I have to go to the bathroom. Think you can take these cuffs off?"

"I don't know, do you promise not to try anything?" He asked.

"Fine, just take these off. I really have to go. I'm not gonna try anything." She said as Tony just watched her.

"Okay then." He took off the cuffs and let Kate go to the bathroom. After a while he was hit on the head from behind and passed out.

"Did you really think I was gonna allow you to tie me up again?" Kate asked with a smirk and ran out the door.

Gibbs' cell phone started to ring.

"Yeah, Gibbs." He said.

"Boss, we have a problem. Kate just ran off. She kinda had to go to the bathroom and she knocked me out."

"Did she take her cell phone?" He asked annoyed.

"I think so, I didn't exactly see it, since I was out cold."

"Get back here, Dinozzo." He then hang up.

"McGee, track Kate on her cell phone. If you can't do it, work with Abby."

Gibbs was very mad right now. He was also very worried for Kate's sake. He hoped she was okay.

In the mean time Kate arrived at the bar she and her sister went to. She went to the bar.

"Hi, I'm special agent Kate Todd, NCIS," she showed her badge. "I want to ask you some questions."

"What can I do for you?"

"I was in here two days ago with a woman, but I left. Did you see this woman?" She showed him a picture of her sister.

"Ah yes, she was in here, she had a fight with someone."

"Yes, that would be with me."

"No, with someone else, a blonde, tall woman. They started screaming at each other about breaking up. They left together after that."

She wrote down the information. "Did anyone hear what happened after that?"

"Well, I heard something that seemed like fighting, but it ended as soon as it started."

"Thank you."

"Did you two stop fighting? I could tell you were worried about her. Something about someone beating her."

Kate then remembered what the fight was about.

"Oh come on, Sammie, you can't just let that woman treat you like that! You deserve better! You have to talk to someone about it."

"I can't Kate, she'll kill me. Or she might go after you. I can't risk that. You're my everything." She said in tears.

"Sammie, I want to help you, but have to allow me to do that. I can't just sit by and watch and wonder that when the phone rings it's the police telling me you're dead. I can't just do that. Please, just think about it. You mean everything to me. I can't lose you like that. Not you."

"You're right. I can't live my life being afraid. I'm gonna talk to her and we'll break it off."

"Alright. Do you want me to take you home?"

"No, I said to her to meet me here."

"You want me to stay? Cause I can."

"No, that's okay, I'll call you afterwards."

"Okay. I love you, Sammie."

"I love you too, Kate. I'll call you later."

Kate was in tears at this moment. All of a sudden there was someone holding her. She looked up and saw Gibbs.

"What are you doing here, Gibbs?"

"Getting you back to my place, and possibly yell at you. What did you think you were doing?"

"I had to come here, Gibbs, I had to remember what we were fighting about."

By this time they were in the car.

"Well, what was it about?"

"She was in a violent relationship. Her girlfriend hurt her and I wanted her to stop seeing her. She was going to talk to her and call me afterwards, but she never did."

"Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" Gibbs asked.

"I didn't remember much of that night, I was drunk. I should have stayed with her."

"Then you could've gotten killed too."

"Or I could have saved her."

"We will find her, trust me."

"Thank you Gibbs. So, how is Tony?"

"He has a headache and is worried sick about you. He's also avoiding me because he thinks I'm going to hurt him for letting you out of his sight."

"Well, are you?" Kate asked with a smile.

"No…he's already hurt. But you might wanna talk to him soon."
