Chapter 7

I do not own NCIS. Enjoy and remember to review if you have the time.

Snap shot: "You're saying I have two options?"

"I have something, everyone at the lab," Tony shouted coming into the bullpen and heading towards the back elevator. Ziva and Tim quickly stood up from behind their desk and ran after him. Gibb was close behind them.

"What's wrong? How's Jenny?" Abby asked as soon as she saw everyone come into the lab. Tony kept walking and the other three agents stopped, waiting for him to say something.

"Tony!" Ziva and Tim shouted. Tony walked back and forth twice before turning to everyone.

"La Grenouille arrived in the states three days ago." Ziva raised her eyebrow at him.

"The man the Director was after weeks ago?" Tony gave her a nod.

"A witness heard him talking over the phone and heard him say the name 'Kort', 'the Director' and 'kill her'. They also heard him say, "no one will know the better."

"Benoit set this up?" Tim asked Tony gave him a nod.

"It makes sense," he said.

"While everyone is focus on Gibbs, no one notices anything or anyone else." Abby said.

"McGee, I need you to track Benoit since his arrival three days ago. Ziva, find Kort, he's FBI or CIA."

"How do you know?" Ziva asked him. Tony looked at her.

"The Director pull some string and Benoit has been under surveillance. He wasn't allowed in D.C. without FBI or CIA escort."

"How do you know-" Tim started to say.

"It doesn't matter. What matters, is you tracking him. Ziva find Kort. Tim track Benoit's steps as far as you can. Abby find me any interaction between Benoit and the two bastards who mess with our mother!" Tony shouted. Everyone quickly got to work. Tony went over to Gibbs.

"I need you to list everyone you have interacted since your return. Anyone that seemed out of place, anyone that asked you 'how are you doing?' Anyone and I want that list in an hour." Tony said leaving Gibbs in Abby's lab. Abby ignored Gibbs as she got to work, Tim beside her.

"Tell me what you got?" Tony came into the lab with Ziva and Gibbs behind him an hour later. Abby turned around, sadness in her eyes and gave Tony a nod.

"Natasha received a call an hour before Jenny-… And the other guy, James Marco, received on half an hour before Ducky's time of death estimate." Tony gave her a nod.

"Anything else?" He asked looking at Tim who had not turned around from the computer. Time gave a nod but didn't turn away from the screen.

"The calls between both deaths and Benoit go back months. There are cell calls between Benoit and Marco going back four months ago. However, Benoit and Natasha's cell calls go back seven months. But that is not all." Tim finally turned away from the computer screen and looked at Tony.

"What did you find?"

"Natasha arrived to D.C. six in a half months ago. She was staying at a hotel, club membership, went out, etc. However, I found her name on the hospital record?" Everyone looked at Tim confuse?

"What about it?" Tony asked wanting to shake the answers out of him.

"About four months ago, she visited Gibbs at the hospital." Everyone turned to Gibbs who was shock and shook his head moments alter.

"I never saw her," he said.

"He didn't," Tim said turning to his computer. "He was still in his coma when she visited him. I went through the hospitals surveillance cameras and found her, she never goes into the room."

"Why?" Ziva asks confuse. Tim taps on the keyboard and points at the back of the lab for the team to see. On the screen they can see the back of Natasha in an expensive red overcoat.

"Look into the room," Tim said. Everyone looked pass Natasha and could see Gibbs laying on the bed, eyes close, and unconscious. But pass him they saw a figure, the person, who was a woman by the looks of her long red hair, laid her head beside Gibbs body, sleeping or taking a nap.

"That's Jenny," Ziva said.

"At what time is this?" Tony asked.

"This one is at around lunch time, 12:45."

"This one," Gibbs asked after being silent for a while. Tim looked at him but turned to Tony who gave him a nod.

"She came back later that night and spent the majority of the night sleeping beside you. She would leave at 4 in the morning and be back around lunch time." Tim said as he fast forward the video and showed Jenny grabbing Gibbs hand and then sitting beside him, later leaning forward and laying her head on the bed beside him.

"Natasha visited Gibbs once more but Jenny was there." Tim said as he showed Natasha once again outside Gibbs room with the expensive red overcoat.

"Jenny unknowingly saved Gibbs life twice, who knows what Natasha would have done to Gibbs if-" Abby started to say but was stopped by Tim.

"He might have been the target but after this, he stopped being so." Tim said. Everyone turned to look at him confuse.

"What else did you find?" Gibbs asked this time Tim didn't look at Tony but at his screen.

"McGee? Tim?" Tony asked, Tim still didn't look up but press buttons on the keyboard.

"I couldn't track Gibbs because he left to Mexico, so I tracked Jenny. I found either Natasha or Marco following her around D.C. for the first month Gibbs was gone." Tim brought up on the screen different picture shots of roads with the two same cars. There were some pictures that showed one of the cars parked outside Jenny's townhouse, a man or woman, Marco or Natasha, standing outside of it on every few pictures.

"On the second month, Jenny must have realized something because she changes her schedule either by ten, fifteen, or twenty minutes every couple of days. I called Stan who confirmed that Jenny knew something was wrong and they all came up with a plan to throw off whoever it was that were playing games." Again, more pictures were put up on the screen with a car waiting outside Jenny's house and leaving after realizing Jenny was gone.

"After the second week, Marco is station in front of her home during the night. Time passes and Gibbs comes back, the pair took turns either watching Gibbs or Jenny."

"They never interacted?" Ziva asked. Tim simply shook his head.

"I track Gibbs and find Natasha and Marco watching him but they loose interest after Ma- Lt. Colonel Mann comes into the picture. They do follow him at her place but they focus on Jenny once more." Tim and the room fell silent.

"Did you remember anything?" Tony asked looking at Gibbs who shook his head, still trying to wrap his mind around being followed and him not realizing.

"Maybe this will help a little?" Tim said cryptically. Everyone turned around to see him; his eyes were set in stone and cold. He press some buttons on his keyboard and pictures of Gibbs car parked outside Jenny's townhouse appeared. Others were of Gibbs opening his car door for Jenny as she stepped into it both of them always smiling at each other or Jenny laughing at Gibbs stare.

"The car that follows them is the same as the previous pictures," Ziva said.

"It is. Is Natasha." Tim says.

"When did you get this?" Tony asked but everyone turned to look at Gibbs who looked like everything he was seeing was foreign.

"Cameras only allowed me to go back for four in a half months," Tim said with anger in his voice. "Were you and the Director together?" He asked, the whole team also wondering the same thing. Gibbs couldn't say anything though… because… because he didn't know. He couldn't remember.

"Are there any changes?"

Silence.

"Are there any changes?!"

"No."

"What's wrong? What aren't you telling me?"

Silence.

"What's wrong?"

"Check her medical file."

Jenny sat on the topside of the booth's seat in the diner. Her arms rested against her thighs, both hands clasp in front of her. She looked out of the window but only saw white light.

"You're saying I have two options?"

Soooo…

Thanks for the reviews and I hope you keep enjoying the story.

This story only has maybe two chapters (or three) left and maybe some outtakes, depending if you guys want them. The outtakes would mostly be of Jenny and the conversations she has at the diner.

You guys might not like the ending but… I'm still trying to decide one of three possibilities. If you have any ideas of how you would like this story to end, send me a message and I'll consider it.

If you have time, please review, thanks.
