Okay people I had to divide this chapter and probably the next, in two parts cuz, umm they became longer than I expected :) (Already 6 pages) and I don't want to bore you ! Thanks for the review! Keep them coming ;)

"Well… well… well Ziva! I think you know what come next. I can remember something about a couple of boys who disappear and a trip into the forest with Ari and Tali. Shall we let the videos tell the rest?

Suddenly Ziva stood up and stopped the DVD. "Gibbs I really want you to go out… Please" she asked, no she begged, she knew what the videos showed and she wouldn't let anyone see that. There were not tears in her eyes and her voice was normal, but she begged them.

"Please Gibbs!"

"I can't Ziva. You know that"

"I know Gibbs... One word and I will turn it off. And… And"

"What, Ziva?"

"I think maybe Abby should go. This part has nothing to do with me, but I think you will be very sad to hear the truth"

"I'm staying!" the goth said stubborn. How could Ziva think that she wouldn't be there for her. They were friends, and friends would always be there.

McGee pressed the start button.

"Just a background check. Little Ziva is 12 when she joins MOSSAD and here the fun is starting, but that isn't interesting so we start when she is thirteen or fourteen…

Ziva was in a gym with many other children, most of them older than her. They were divided in pairs. Ziva stood with boy who was twice her size, but she didn't looked scared. Actually, she looked bored.

"You know I can take you down in less than ten seconds right?" She hissed as she separated his attack.

"Yes I have heard about you miss David! A real killer, the best of the agents ect. But now you brother is in England, he can't protected you and.. you can't take more than one man down at once."

Ziva made two hits, a step, and boy laid down. Crying out in pain.

"You will regret it David!" and then Ziva let go of him. She was used to get those kinds of threats, and she laughed.

It was later that night Ziva was leaving the gym alone. She had trained the evening away. When she closed the doors behind her, she knew something was wrong. Someone was following her. Ziva turned around and faced the boy from earlier. However, he wasn't alone. About five boys at the same size were with him.

"What do you want?" Ziva asked, she didn't show her emotions, but she was scared.

"Oh we just want to have fun with you Ziva!"

Then all of them jumped at her, holding her down as one of them drugged her with something in a syringe. She was awake, but she couldn't feel her body.

"What did you give me!" she asked, trying not to panic.

"Oh, just some painkillers. You know, strong painkillers," one of the boys laughed

"I want her first!" the oldest of them said and the others just laughed, lying her down in a little room not far from the gym. Actually it wasn't a room, it was more like a closet.

They ripped the clothes off her body. Showing her little body. Rapping her one by one. She couldn't move, but she didn't cry. She just tried to tell them to stop. When they were done, a little girl lay passed out on the floor, unconscious and alone…

Gibbs eyes were burning! Tony's heart was bleeding, Abby's eyes was crying, McGee's soul was chocked, Ducky was speechless and Ziva. Ziva felt more naked than she was on the screen. She felt embarrassed and sick. She pulled her knees up to her chest, sinking down in chair. Protecting what was hers, her soul and body.

The little girl woke up. She was alone in the closet. Couldn't find the door. The panic crept deep inside her. Tear pressing in her eyes. She tried to stand up, her legs shook. Whole her body shook. She could hear voices outside the closet and felt the panic. She quickly dressed and walked out, without anyone noticed. Shestill shook as she walked down the hall, trying not to be noticed by the other students. And when Michael came, she ran. He tried to catch up with her, but she would not let him. She ran to the only place she felt safe. Hers and Ari's room. She stripped off her cloth and entered the bathroom. Trying to wash every sign and market away.
After half an hour, she stepped out. Full dressed, trying to hide as much of her skin as possible. She just stood for a moment, before taking the phone and dial a number. The other end answered.

"Shalom Ziva" Ari said, glad to hear his sisters voice again.

"Shalom Ari"

"Ziva? What is wrong?" Ari sensed eminently, that something was not right.

"Why does something have to be wrong? Can't I just… You know call?"

"Of course, I apologize. But Ziva, you have to promise me, that you will call, if something is wrong!"

"When are you returning Ari?" she said, avoiding answering.

"I'm coming home in the weekend"

"Okay. We miss you"

"I miss you too"

"Shalom"

"Shalom"

'Why did I not tell him?' Ziva stared at the phone, 'because you are strong and have to go through this alone'. She lay down on the bed, taking the blanket as far up as possible, covering for every entrance. Then the anger hit her. How could they think, that they just could use her like that? She jumped up from the bed, taking her running cloth on ran out from the room. She was not stupid enough to try taking him down alone, she needed to train, but right now the only thing she needed, was to get the anger to disappear...


They were all shocked and in some way, they had bad conscience. They had all hated Ari for killing Kate, they still did. But now. Now the truth came to them, yes he had been a terrorist, but he had also been an amazing brother. They had never heard Ziva mention Ari, and they rated him of what he did to Kate. Which they never would let go from their memories. He was a bastard, but he was an amazing brother too.

Ari knocked on the door. He was a day earlier than expected and when Ziva opened, she almost jumped into his arms. The siblings laughed and hugged, Ziva smiled. However, Ari could see something was wrong; the smile did not reach her eyes. Something Tony could see too, he could probably as the only one in MTAC, see the darkness in her eyes. Ari stepped into the house and was captured by Tali in a, what the team would call it: An Abby hug.

"Ari I missed you so much," the little girl said, looking into her brother's eyes

"I missed you too Tali"

"Want to see what I made last week?" before Ari had a chance to answer, Tali pulled him into her room. Ari looked surprised around before turning to Ziva, who was right behind.

"Are my bed still in our, I'm sorry, your room?"

Ziva smiled "yes," he smirked at her "no funny business in my bed". Ziva tried to hold her smile, but failed. Or did she? Tony knew she was shaking inside, but could the other see it? No. They sat calmly watching the screen.

"I won't, I promise"

A voice called from the kitchen. The smell of the dinner was amazing and Tali ran over to her father.

"Abba, Ari is home!" Eli David turned to face his son.

"Shalom Ari"

"Shalom Abba" it was clearly they did not like each other, but they tried to hide it.

"How is it going in England?" Eli asked and continued making the dinner.

"Very well actually, I have some good friends"

"That's good"

"Yes" Ari felt the sister's restraint, he tried to make her look into his eyes, but she refused.

"Ziva, could you and Tali unpack my thing for me?" Ziva smiled and nodded before picking up the girl and walk out of the kitchen.

"What have you done to her?" Ari asked his father angry.

"Done to who?"

"To Ziva! She is quiet and will barely look at me!" Ari tried not to yell, but Ziva heard him. In the room where she and Tali was unpacking his things, she turned on the music, trying to hide the loud voices for her sister.

"Ziva is almost a woman now Ari, do not protect her like that! She need to know what the world can do tot her, and if that means she change, that is what is going to happen"

"What have you done to her?" he said again

"I have done nothing to her Ari Haswari and you will never talk to me like that again!" Eli slapped him at the cheek and Ziva crimped. She knew they were fighting over her. She stood up and looked into the mirror on the wall. Had she really change, so much as people told she had? Michael asked her almost every day what was wrong. She could not tell him the truth. Her pride was too precious...

That night Ari locked the door and for once Ziva felt safe. Ari knew that. Her eyes and muscles were relaxed and she lay down on her bed. Staring up at the ceiling.

"Ziva? What is wrong? What have happen to you?"

Zivas eyes never left the ceiling as she answered, "Why do you think something has happened to me?"

"Ziva, I know you. Who has hurt you?"

Eminently Ziva sat up, taking her knees to her chest. Her eyes locked with his before she whispered, "they raped me."

Ari barely heard what she said and what he heard shocked him.

"Who Ziva?"

Zivas brown eyes was locked to the ceiling again. Tears were running down her cheeks. Why did she tell him? He would leave her again anyway. However, she gave him the names.

"Have you told Abba?" his voice was angry

Ziva nodded.

"Then why are these bastards still alive?" they locked eyes, both knew the answer. Ziva repeated the father words "a woman is no woman, if she cannot protect herself"…

That night Ari sneaked out and returned after an hour, Ziva sat awake, waiting on him. He nodded and Ziva let the tears fall, he sat down beside her. They sat like that the rest of the night. Ari was feeling more guilty than ever, how could he had had let this happen?


McGee stared at the screen, exactly like the others. However, he was the only one who knew how Ari felt. As the only one with a little sister, he knew how terrible Ari must feel. Not able to be at the right time and the right place, to protected his sister when she needed him.
Gibbs on the other hand was millimeters from calling Eli David and kill him! How could he teat his daughter like that?!
Then there was Ziva. Tears were running down her cheeks. Ari had loved her, protected her, and always been there when she needed him and what had she done to him? She had placed a single bullet between his eyes. To save a man she did not know!

The early sunlight was streaming into the room through the window. Ziva blinked once, twice. It was a year later. Ari was home again. They both looked older. Ari was muscular, his voice was deeper and he was taller. Ziva was also taller, her body was more developed and she was still beautiful.

Eli David knocked on the door and opened. His son and oldest daughter sat clothed on their beds, clearly waiting for him. Tali was just behind. She was older too. Almost eleven and looked a lot like her sister.

"You ready?" she eager asked her older siblings.

Ari and Ziva both nodded, a trip to the forest was exactly what they had in mind. Or not. Ziva and Ari had done it before. They would be left alone out in the forest, only their gut to tell them how to come out.

Trees were rising around them. Tali that had been so enthusiastic in the beginning, but she began to realize the reality. They would not come home, at least they found the way out themselves.

"Ziva I am freezing" Tali said, her voice clearly shoved the fear she felt.

"Tali relax, we will be out in no time" Ziva gave her sister her jacket.

"How can you say that? We have already been here in ten hours if not more!"

"Ziva, I think you should see this!" Ari yelled from at place between the trees. She walked over to her brother to see what he had found. A couple of dead eyes were staring back at her. However, she did not react as a girl at her age should, but Tali did. With fear and shock.

"Poor man!" she said. Tali had never seen a body. In some way the body looked familiar, but because of the fact that the twilight already had come, they hadn't time to think more about it.

Ziva took Tali's arm and pulled her away from the body.

"Ari we have not time to play around, we need to come out before the darkness arrives" Ziva said, bringing Ari back to the reality.

The darkness was almost covering the forest completely, when they reached the end. Tali was sleeping and Ari had carried her the last hour, and Ziva had never been so happy to see her father's car...


Tony could not help but smile. Ziva had told him about their 'funny trip into the forest,' he looked at her and they locked eyes, smirking to each other.

"You do not find a trip to the forest fun, Tony?" she smirked at him.

"Nahh, I prefer fun with, umm balls" he sent her his big DiNozzo smile and she laughed.

"Like..?"

"Golf" they looked at each other and collapsed laughed. The other agents just glared at them, didn't see the fun.

Gibbs mumbled, "Sometimes I feel like a teacher in a kindergarten …"
