I do not own NCIS or any of the characters.

I will probably not finish this by January 12 so anything seen on the episode will not be related to this story.


McGee and Ziva were driving to Tony and Gibbs. McGee was driving much to Ziva's dislike.

"I do not understand why I can not drive. If I were driving we would already be there."

"If you were driving we'd probably be dead."

Ziva crossed he arms and stared out the window.

"Do you think that they are all right, Ziva?"

She turned to him, "Hopefully. Though I still can not believe that NCIS let a man charged with treason simply walk out."

"He does look a lot like Tony doesn't he?"

"Yes, but-"

"We were in Abby's lab, Gibbs and Tony were away."

"What about the guard we had standing in front of the interrogation room?"

"He might of..damn. He's dead. I left Tony's dad some paper work to sign with a pen and a never took it back. Shit," McGee hit the steering wheel and they started to swerve.

Ziva quickly grabbed hold of the steering wheel.

"Thanks, Ziva. I guess that my head was somewhere else today. I mean actually meeting Tony's dad, thinking that he was really a good guy. Do you think he planned this?"

"Maybe. You are okay if I let go of the steering wheel, yes?"

He smiled, "Yeah," then his face dropped, "I hope that they're okay."


Tony immediately went down after the shot and grabbed him stomach. He could feel the warm liquid seep into his hands. He knew that he needed to get medical attention, and fast. Gibbs was stunned and his hand tried to go to his gun, when he saw DiNozzo Sr.'s gun in his face.

"Drop the gun."

Gibbs did as he was told, and glanced at Tony, "You okay," he whispered.

"Never..been..better," though Gibbs could see a red pool of blood forming around Tony that worried him greatly.

DiNozzo Sr. got the trigger ready, "You know, Gibbs, I never really did like you. Started all of this trouble in the first place. Meddling in Tony's life."

"I care about him."

"Don't know how anybody could. I'm going to enjoy-"

He never finished that sentence. He fell back and blood started coming from his head. Gibbs turned and saw Tony holding his gun in his hand. He then dropped it and cried out in pain. Gibbs quickly went over to Tony.

"Tony, stay with me, okay. Stay with me."

Then Ziva and McGee came in with their guns ready after they heard the shot. But they saw Tony and rushed to his side.

"Hey..guys."

McGee was quickly dialing his phone, with tears in his eyes, "Yes 911.."

Ziva was cradling his head in her arms, murmuring something in Hebrew, trying her best not to cry, but was failing.

Gibbs was putting preassure on Tony's wound, though it was not helping that much.

Tony couldn't remember that much from then on. He saw a blur of people dressed in white clothes speaking some sort of gibberish that he could not understand. Then every thing went black and the last thing that Tony heard was Gibbs telling him that it was going to be all right.

********

Tony awoke to find himself in a big house. It looked oddly familiar, as if it was his own house. It then came to him that it was his house, from his child hood.

"Gibbs," cried out Tony, "Ziva! McGee!"

Tony heard no answer but a gentle singing voice. It was so beautiful and also familiar, and it was coming from a room down the hall. He slowly went forward and saw his mother rocking in a chair. He slowly approached her with a mix of emotions coming over him.

"Mom?"

She just kept singing. Her voice was just as beautiful just as Tony remembered it. He remembered that when he was little she would always sing to him before he went to bed. Then one the day singing stopped and it was never heard again until now. She was shaking her head, when Tony took a step toward her, she had a sad look on her face.

Tony then realised that she wanted him to go back, but he didn't want to. He wanted to stay with her forever and never leave, he didn't want her to disappear again.

"Mom I-"

She kept singing, tears started running down her face, but the tune stayed the same. She then began to get blurry and things started to get light. Just before she disappeared completely Tony whispered, "I love you, Mom."


What do you think? I really appreciate the reviews that I have been getting. There is only one or two chapters left now.
