a/n: been a long update but that's because haven't had many reviews and been busy so hope to update more

a while later, at Bethesda

Abby and Tony walk into Max room after getting past the guard outside and see Max laying on Gibbs chest both sound asleep and a nurse in the room who just smiles at them as she walks around the room and stops next to them, "He woke up scared and fell asleep like that."

"Not going to do anything with him on the bed?" Abby asked taking a picture.

She shakes her head, "He's not bothering anything right now and his primary doctor a Dr. Mallard mentioned it would be easier way to get him to stay calm."

"Well he does love to fall asleep that way with just about everyone on the team," Abby said to no one in particular.

Max opens his eyes and see them and smiles a little, "Ab...Poni."

Abby moves over and kisses his forehead and runs a hand thru his dark hair, "Hey little man you making sure dad gets some sleep?"

He nods and lays his head back on his chest, "Hmm...sore."

The nurse smiles and adds something to his IV again, "That's Tramadol should help him with pain. Need something just come to the front desk or hit the call button."

They watch her leave and Gibbs wakes up, "So find anything new?" He asked rubbing circles in his back as fall asleep.

Tony leans against the wall in the room, "Running a few leads but nothing really right now. Ziva and McGee are running known associates of them and see if can find something but nothing so far. Abby has a few things running down in the lab and Fornell is doing something."

Abby looks at the clock, "Some stuff should be ready in the lab but we will back later and see you guys."

~~NCIS~~

Ziva looks up from her desk when hear the elevator dings and Tony walks over and sets his gear down behind his desk and hands her a cup of coffee and McGee walked in passing around a bag of food for everyone and sitting at his own desk and asked, "How is he?"

Tony shakes his head sighing, "Doing okay so far. Boss said he had a nightmare last night and hopefully be going home in a week or so."

Abby walks in and hands Tony a piece of paper, "List of names of her associates I got in the DC area from her brother that's flying in this afternoon and Jackson will be here tonight but have to get him from the airport at 7. You know Gibbs has a brother?"

They all shrug and the director walks in with a tall man with black spikey hair and blue eyes, "Actually we don't talk to much these days so he doesn't say much."

Abby turns to face him, "Joel your here?" She wrapped her arms around his neck and he returns the hug.

McGee, Tony and Ziva look at them confused, "Abbs care to explain?" Tony asked the hyper goth.

She releases him from the hug smiling, "Joel is Gibbs baby brother who he never talks about but from time to time."

"Wait the boss has a brother? How you know?" Tony asked even more confused to the development.

He sits down at his brothers desk and pulls something up on the computer and then on the plasma screen, "Corporal Darnell has some nasty connections with some gun runners and that's where I ran into both of them yesterday morning and she-"

"Wouldn't she know who you are?" McGee asked him.

"Jet never really talks about me much and unlike him I didn't recognicle with our father recently. Amelia has no idea am his brother which is working in my favor right now for what planning and should be capturing her tomorrow and a few more wanted people."

Just then, Gibbs and Fornell walks in, "Damn thought you were in Africa or somewhere," Fornell said.

Younger Gibbs rolls his eyes at the FBI agent, "Nice to see you to Tobias but came here because of your director calling me and reminded me why in the hell someone else seems to hate the FBI and demanded me to fly out at 2 in the morning."

"Your the one that pissed him off the last time you saw him."

He waves his hand at him huffing, "Not my fault some probie puked all over his new Mercedez last year."

Older Gibbs and the rest of the team look at him, "Uh huh. What you have?" Gibbs asked slapping the back of his head.

He shakes his head and stands up and slaps the back of his head, "Last time you did that 4 times in one hour I had a concussion," he clicked away on a tablet. "She's suppose to meet me tomorrow afternoon to pick-up 3 shipment of AK47's and pay $2m and that's when we bust her."

Fornell smirks at watching the two of them, "We will coordinate with NCIS and make this a joint bust since the directors have already figured that out."

around midnight, at Bethesda

Max is still up hoping his dad was going to spend the night once again and watching Spongebob on TV and the nurse was checking him over and he was ignoring her as messed about the room and he turned to the door as opens and see Joel, "Uncle Joel."

He smiles and hands him a 'GET WELL' bear and kisses the top of his head, "He buddy your dad said were in here and had to come and see you."

Max smiles and wraps his arms around his neck until sits down on the bed and lays his head on his shoulder, "Thank you for escuin me."

The nurse leaves and Gibbs walks in and kisses the top of his son's head, "At least you were smart enough to call 9-1-1."

He shakes his head at his older brother, "I got him away but pressing matters forced me to leave him there but not before made sure you were almost there."

"Well dad is coming to see him in the morning and if want not to see him better be gone around 8 since you two aren't talking still."

He rolls his eyes at his older brother, "Haven't had the time like you to make up with the old man but maybe in time and after all of this we can try."

what you think about the part where Gibbs has a brother whose just as annoying as him? thought it would be funny and good to add into the story
