I kissed her on cheek and then left. I didn't have even a minute to think how to tell them about my powers. Will I ever get the chance to explain or will I just have to leave them to explain themselves.
I got down to dad's desk. He looked up at me with a worried look. He definitely wanted to know something. I knew what was next. Sighing, I left to the elevator. He smirked and went to the elevator too. We got in and then, as usually, he stopped it. He leaned against the wall and then looked at me.
"Dad? You wanted to ask me something particular or just stare at me?"
"Both. She told you?"
"Yes she did."
"What was her response when I told her to speak with you?"
"At first she didn't want to but after a while she opened up and told me everything."
"It's good that she has you. She never talked to anyone about her problems, her feelings."
"What was that woman's name?"
"Samantha Pierce. I remember Jenny coming back to hotel that night. She was in pain. All she did was lay in bed and start crying. I couldn't comfort her, there was nothing I could do. I tried to find out what happened but all I got was you'll never understand. After a couple of days she told me that she couldn't shoot her. I didn't understand why she would mercy her although Samantha was pregnant. Now when I know about you, I understand her."
"And you really think Samantha is the one seeking for revenge?"
"Probably, or anyone from her family. But it's definitely Samantha's lead."
"I'll protect you both, I promise." I thought for a while about telling him about my powers but we were in elevator so there was no way to show him so I didn't.
"Anything else you want to tell?"
"No… nothing for now. I'll report to you on every clue I find."
"You sure there is nothing to tell me?"
"I'm sure."
"Okay then." He turned the elevator back on. He went to his desk and I asked Ziva for a walk. She looked at dad and when he nodded she stood up and we went outside.
"You wanted to talk to me?" Ziva asked when we were already outside. It was sunny spring day. It wasn't cold anymore, just great for a walk.
"Yeah. I was thinking how to tell my…" I suddenly remembered she doesn't know yet. She doesn't know who my parents are.
"Tell whom? What?"
"How to tell my parents about my super powers."
"You found you parents?" Ziva screamed with a smile on her face. "That's so cool! You have your parents. May I ask who are your parents? Have you already met them? Tell me everything."
"Ziva… Jenny Shepard and Leroy Jethro Gibbs are my parents."
"Wow, really?" she was still smiling. "You have a great parents you know… They both know how to be loving, caring. I think they'll love you as much as you deserve."
"I know. I really get along well with both of them. They are both happy to have me I just don't know how to tell them about my super powers. I think, now that I met them, those powers are genetic."
"How would it be genetic?"
"Look, I have my father's gut feelings. My mom doesn't simply break in front of others and neither do I. Even if I feel in pain like dying, I don't say a simple word that I'm in pain. I can fly, I don't know how to explain that but it must be a mixture of something. I have a great knowledge, my mom learns things fast. My dad's muscles, look at me, I can lift up anything I want."
"They really are genetic just that with you they are more stronger."
"Yes, when I lived on my own I don't remember much. But as I guess, I had to get food somehow, so I developed those powers faster and more obvious. I think I needed to fly to avoid danger, to get food. The same I think for my strength."
"Ann, you are one amazing girl and you're parents are lucky to have you. I think there should be no problem telling them about your powers."
"But how to tell them? I don't want to scare any of them."
"I know you don't want to but you didn't scare me, you didn't scare Abby but we are special, I know. You know what? Just tell them that they need to know everything about you. Tell them the whole story like you told me. They will understand. Just don't hesitate because Gibbs will notice something is wrong."
"You think it will work? I don't know what's wrong with me. I never doubted in myself like that."
"Just tell them and don't doubt in yourself, you'll do everything right. I believe in you." She smiled and hugged me.
"Thanks Ziva."
"No problem."
I smiled at her and we walked back to NCIS. I decided I will tell my parents about my super powers as soon as they will both have time.
Ziva sat back at her desk and everyone else curiously looked at me. "What?" I said when saw everyone staring at me. Ziva just nodded at me.
"Dad? When you have time, can you please come in my mom's office?"
"Yep." Starring at me, he almost whispered.
"Thanks."
Ziva smiled at me as I ran upstairs in my mom's office. I didn't bother to wait or knock. I just opened the door and walked in. She was talking on the phone so I just took my time to carefully check everything in her office. I checked all the drinks she stored there and I saw bourbon mostly. I stepped to the window and enjoyed in view.
"Ann hi. Sorry, I was talking to SecNav." She said, pulling me back from my world.
"Don't worry. I have something to tell you."
"Is it about why Jethro wanted to talk to you?"
"No. I have something to tell both of you. Just we'll have to wait until he comes up. I told him to come ASAP."
"Okay, I can wait. In the meantime, why did he wanted to talk with you."
"Just to check if you really spoke with me about Samantha Pierce."
"She told you her name?"
"I think I'll just kill her." I said with serious voice but mom managed to smirk at my belief.
Then the door opened. Dad came and he sat on the sofa. My mom stared at him for a while than she sat down next to him. Oh my God! I'm really telling them and they are both just sitting quiet and staring at me.
"Well, mom, dad. I think you two deserve to know everything about me."
"Ya think?" Dad said with a serious voice.
"Let her speak." Mom tried to hush him. I couldn't help but I smirked.
"As you know, I lived on my own since my birth. I didn't have anyone to raise me up so genetics and circumstances made me the one I am now. I had to survive somehow, to feed myself. So before you break my speech, completely surprised at what I will tell you, please don't run away until I show you that I'm telling you the truth." I was afraid they won't believe me and then think I am some crazy girl. "No, I will just show you everything because I don't want you to be scared. Mom, can you come here please?" I asked carefully.
She surprisingly looked at me then she finally stood up and walked towards me. I lifted her up as she screamed. I didn't know if it was because of a fear or because of surprise.
"Don't scream please. And before you ask, no one is to heavy for me. I can lift up anyone." She smiled to me. I think she understood me. But my dad, he was a completely different story. With mouth open, he couldn't do anything but stare at me. I lost my smile immediately. It happened exactly what I was most afraid of. He couldn't say anything to me. He stood up and walked towards the door to leave the room.
"Dad, please. Don't leave me, please. Don't do just what I was most afraid of, that you won't take it and just left me as I never existed." If I was a normal girl I would be crying till now. But I wasn't. I never cried and by that I mean really never. "Just wait, I have one more thing to show you. I can fly and now I want you dad to be here and hold my hand to show you."
He turned around and I saw his face, his frightened face with tears gathering in his eyes. He slowly approached me and grabbed my hand. I put my mom down then looked in my dad's eyes. It didn't take a second to be up, flying. He instinctively hugged me so he wouldn't fall.
"Don't worry, you won't fall. Not when I'm holding you." I smiled to him and he whispered in my ear.
"I didn't want to leave you. I just couldn't see you holding your mom just the way I did when we were in Paris. Elevator in ten minutes okay?"
"Okay." Smiling to him, we slowly got back down. He left the office and my mom hugged me.
"I have super daughter. The most amazing girl I could ever meet is my daughter. I love you Ann."
"Love you too mom."
