Hey, everyone. I'm sorry for the delay. I took a little hiatus while my school work began to pile up. But, I emerged on top and enjoy.
Review, please! Thanks.
"Nothing? How is there nothing? This is a busy street corner in a huge city," I half-yell in frustration.
"Jane, we will get this guy," he insists.
"I know," I sigh. "I'm just so pissed," I say, kicking a garbage can. I look up and notice something on the lamppost. "Frost, what's that?"
"A security cam," he says with a smile. By the time, we watch through all of the footage, it is already nighttime. "OK, so we have a face all we need know is an ID." Frost rubs his face and says, "You know what. How about you go home and I'll run his face through facial rec?" I grudgingly agreed, but instead of going home, I headed in a different direction. After parking in the street, I make my way up the driveway, to the door. I knock and step back, waiting for an answer. The door creaks open and it reveals a tired looking Maura.
"Are you ok, Maura?"
She sniffles and replies, "No, not really." I pull her into a hug, when suddenly, I get an idea.
"Maura?"
"Yes?"
"I need to know more."
"Jane, I already told you what I know, what more can I tell you."
"We need to call them," I say, handing her the phone.
"Okay." Maura calls the NCIS team and invites them over. Moments later, the doorbell rings. I motion to Maura to stand back and pull out my service weapon. I creep over to the door and tear it open, only to find myself facing four federal agents. I lowered my weapon and welcomed them in.
Tony walks in wide-eyed and says, "Nice digs, Kate. I mean Maura."
"It's ok DiNozzo; you can call me Kate inside my own house."
Meanwhile, in a van just down the block…
"So, it really is you." The man laughs.
Back at Maura\Kate's house…
"I need you to tell me everything," I say, sitting down in the living room.
"Alright," says Gibbs.
"I will start," says Ziva. She takes a deep breath and sighs. "Ari was my half-brother. He was the product of an affair between my father, Eli, and Hasmia Haswari, an Arab doctor. My father groomed him to be Mossad's mole into Hamas. 11 years ago, Eli bombed the camp where his mother worked, killing her. This caused Ari to hate him even more and that was probably what turned him."
"I'm sorry, but turned him into what?"
"A terrorist. Instead of continuing as Mossad's mole, he began working for various terrorist organizations under the ruse that he was still in Mossad. Unfortunately, I don't really know what happened between him and Kate."
"He began obsessing over her and eventually he 'killed' Kate," adds Gibbs.
"And I was the one who killed him," finishes Ziva, her voice thick with pain.
"You killed your own half-brother?" I find myself asking.
"Yes."
"I'm sorry."
"It was for the best."
"I need to get some air," mumbles Maura. She gets up and slowly walks across the room as though she is in a minefield.
"Wait, Maura," I say as she walks out the door. I get up and try to catch up to her. "Maura!" She turns. She opens her mouth to speak, but I shush her, sensing something wrong. "I have a feeling that someone's watching us."
"Jane, that's impossible. You can't feel someone watching you."
"Maura, I want you to turn and quickly go back home. Ok?"
"OK." I watch her walk down the block and I turn to survey my surroundings. I try to turn toward the left, but a sweet-smelling cloth is held over my mouth before I can. "Maura," I whisper as my world went black.
