So so so sorry I haven't updated in forever! I've just been so busy with school and planning stuff for this summer! Thanks for the reviews! Hope everyone's having a good summer.

"You ready?" Tony asked as he attempted to help her out of the car.

"It's up time I do this don't you think? He's bound to be worrying" she asked as he chuckled walking towards the door.

"It's HIGH time, not up time. And we have all been worried" He said as he opened the door for her with a smile, "after you."

They both could hear Gibbs working in the basement, and were positive he heard them come in. Tony took her hand and squeezed it. When she looked back at him he gave her an encouraging smile as he let go of her hand and waited for her to go downstairs.

She could feel the lump in her throat as she held back her tears, don't cry Ziva, don't cry, you can do this. It's Gibbs, how mad could he be? Oh shit.

When She first entered the doorway to the basement she froze. Remembering.

"Ziva?" Gibbs asked from the bottom of the stairs.

When she looked at him she could feel the tears in her eyes. She then ran down the stairs and into his arms, feeling so comfortable and content with her real Father.

"Where have you been Ziva? What is going on?" He asked as he held her close in his arms.

She didn't know how to explain everything. How could she tell him that her brother had a bother that is coming after him to kill him because he thinks the Gibbs killed his brother? No, she couldn't do that.

"I'm okay, I'll be fine. I just-I just need you to be safe, this is no joke Gibbs, you need protection. But I promise you I will be fine, I will handle this."

"Okay." Gibbs 'agreed'. If he was getting a protection detail, he was gonna put a tail on her.

"Boss are you crazy!" Tony asked from the top of the stairs. "Ziva, don't be stupid, boss tell her, we need to keep everyone safe!"

"Then we'll stay at NCIS." Gibbs suggested.

"No, I need to do what I have to. Tony I'll be fine"

As if on cue, her cell phone rang, both men stared at her as she walked away from them to answer the call.

"Shalom." She said, smiling when Tony gave her an irritated glare knowing she was gonna talk in a different language so he wouldn't understand.

""He's made contact. He wants to speak to Gibbs." Hadar said

"No, if he wants to talk to anyone, it will be me." She said in arabic

"He's calling Gibbs now."

"No!" She shouted as she hung up the phone when she heard Gibbs' cell go off.

"Gibbs, don't answer it, give it to me! Please." She spoke holding out her hand.

Gibbs just looked at her as he pulled out his and hit the answer button along with the speaker button.

"Gibbs." He said as he stared at Ziva

"Leroy Jethro Gibbs, what a pleasure." The voice spoke, while Ziva glared at the phone, listening to the familiar voice of her brother.

"Mhmm, mind telling me who you are?"

"A friend. Is Ziva with you?" the voice sounding all to pleased.

"I'm here. Ziva said

"Do you know who I am?"

"Yes, I know exactly who you are. I just don't know what it is you want."

"You know exactly what I want, he's standing right infront of you." He said as a shot was heard from the other end of the line.

"Down!" Ziva shouted. And as they ducked 3 shots were fired through the basement window.

Ziva reached for the phone Gibbs' dropped as he ducked down.

"Better luck next time." Then the line cut off.

"Alright, so who the hell was that?" Gibbs asked.

"My other brother." Ziva said simply as she stood and retrieved the slugs that were imbedded in the wall behind them.

Sorry it's a short chapter. I'll update within a week if I get 10 more reviews! If not you'll have to wait till I get back from Portugal!

Thanks!
