So sorry it took me so long to update, I felt really bad so here is a short chapter…thanks for all your understanding and reviews…they have really helped me get through this.
Disclaimer: Only own Maddie….

"Jethro? How are you holding up?" Doctor Mallards gentle voice roused Gibbs from his state of despair.
"How could I lose her, Ducky? I was meant to be looking after her…what if she never comes back?" Leroy Jethro Gibbs turns to look at his long time friend, running his fingers through his hair.
Not meaning to, Ducky let out a small chuckle, holding his hand out to stop Gibbs yelling at him for being 'inconsiderate'. "I didn't mean it like that. I was more laughing about what Jenny will say when we find her," He explains himself, emphasizing the word will. "You should be out there, with your team," Ducky explains, gesturing over to where Tony, McGee, Ziva and his newest member, Maddie were wandering around, not entirely sure what to do without the influence of their boss.
Sighing, Gibbs couldn't help but agree with him. He hadn't told anyone about him and Jenny, but it was painstakingly obvious to those who knew him.
"DiNozzo, bag and tag! Maddie, pictures! David and McGee, search the house for any leads!" His team just stare at him. "Now!"
…
She was in a dark room, that much was obvious as she opened her eyes, vaguely aware of the sharp pain in her temple. Jenny couldn't remember anything past her and Jethro arriving at the house. Lifting her fingers gently to touch her forehead, she felt something sticky and warm, knowing immediately it was blood, and that there was a chance she could have a concussion.
"Hello?" She called out, desperate to know where she was, who she was with, and why she was there.
A laugh answers her call. "Well, well, well, look who is finally awake." She shrieks in surprise as a hand grips her shoulder, sending spasms of pain through her body. "Not for long, my precious." A knee connects with her stomach, and Jenny Shepard, Director of NCIS, is quiet once more.
…
"Boss!" Tony called out, signalling to the rest of the team to follow him.
"What have you got DiNozzo?" Gibbs asks, desperate for news. In his hand, Tony hold a ragged piece of cloth, covered in an intricate weaving of colours. Not even thinking, Maddie pushes both men out of the way and grabs the fabric.
"Oi! Rule number three, Agent Todd!"
"Gibbs…I know this fabric. Someone is playing with us! Someone is trying to break us…first you, Gibbs, with Jenny, and now me, with this!" Maddie chokes back a sob as she explains.
"What is it?" Ziva asks, confused.
"It is part of a jumper…it was my mums jumper, Gibbs. The one she was wearing when she died!"
This is really a filler chapter so I don't feel bad for not writing anything…Hope it is okay :/
