Disclaimer: Meh. It's christmas. I don't need one.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone.
Consider this my present to you.
Enjoy.
And please review.
"So why are you really keeping guard?" Tony asked, breaking the silence that had been going for the last fifteen minutes. "I mean you didn't bother before. What's changed?"
The man shrugged. "Got tipped off from the base that your boss was asking about me," he said. "Figured it wasn't a good idea to go back."
Tony suppressed a smile. So Gibbs was on his tail. That was good news. "You got a name?"
"Yeah, what's it to you?"
Tony shrugged. "I guess I want to be able to call you something."
"You can call me whatever you want," the man said. "I don't give a crap."
Tony thought for a moment. "How about… 'The asshole with a gun and no name that kidnapped two federal agents and is going to have his ass kicked into jail for it'?
The man rolled his eyes. "It's a bit long, don't you think?"
"Actually yeah," Tony said, "So what's your real name? It's not like we can tell anyone."
There was silence. Then, "Peter."
Tony nodded. "So Peter, can I ask you a question?"
"I'd rather you didn't."
Tony ignored him and went on anyway. "So you said you wanted a million dollars, yeah?"
Peter nodded, wondering where this was going.
"But you also said that this was for revenge," Tony continued. "What exactly did we do?" He gestured to Ziva and back to himself.
"You didn't do anything," Peter said. "It was your bloody agency."
"NCIS?"
Peter's face soured at that. "Of course," he muttered.
Ziva laughed. "And what exactly did NCIS do to piss you off so much?"
Peter narrowed his eyes and was silent for a moment, debating whether or not to tell them. He finally spoke, his voice low. "A year ago, my sister was killed by Jamie Sampson. Killed in cold blood. Your little agency let him off. He got away with murder."
"Sampson?" Tony asked, visibly shocked. "The guy that found Amy Peirce's body?"
Peter nodded, apparently pleased with himself. "Yep. My original plan was to just frame Sampson for her death, but then I thought, 'why not kill two birds with one stone?'" he said. "It was always obvious how Sampson felt about Amy. This way I'm taking down the agency, and I'm causing Sampson the pain he caused me," he laughed bitterly. "Your agency will seem incompetent now."
"So an innocent woman had to die for your petty revenge?" Tony asked.
"My sister was an innocent woman," Peter hissed.
Ziva cocked her head to one side. "How do you even know he killed her?"
Peter hesitated. "My gut."
Tony looked at Ziva, an amused expression on his face. "He's no Gibbs."
Peter pulled a cell phone out of his pocket and shoved it into Tony's hands. "Call."
"Huh?"
"Call your agency. Tell them what I need," he said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. "And out it on speaker," he added as an afterthought.
Tony looked down at the phone in his hands, his fingers poised over the numbers. Sighing, he dialed the all too familiar number and put the phone on speaker. It picked up in less than two rings.
"Yeah, Gibbs."
Tony sucked in a breath. "Boss? We got a situation here."
A/N: Review if you want more. Cause I'm not sure if too many people are interested. Didn't get many reviews last chapter. So review! It'll be my christmas present. :).
