NCIS

"Us?" Tony asked, "I don't see it."

"Well, that is where it is from," Ziva defended.

"Well, I think that it is time for lunch," Tony declared as he headed towards the door.

After lunch the team came back inside to the students that were whispering in a huddle in the middle of the room. When the students heard the door swing open they looked around, and then went back to the huddle.

When Ms. Becky came into the room, she called the class to order, "Boys and girls, please take your seats." The kids waited until Becca and Kevin nodded solemnly for them to take their seats. The kids sat down and worked hard to avoid looking any of the adults in the eyes.

"You all look guilty of something," Abby observed, "Maybe we should talk about something fun?"

Kevin raised his hand, "What do you guys find most important?" he asked.

The team looked around, and then Abby had an idea, "Gibbs rules to follow!"

Gibbs laughed, "Abby I don't think that they want to learn about those." The class argued that they did, "Why not?"

Now, Gibbs had the idea, "Why doesn't my team try and name all of my rules in order to see if they actually know them?"

"Uh…" the team started to protest, but Director Sheppard backed up her old partner, giving them no choice. "Rule number one, Abby?"

"Rule number one, never screw over your partner," Tony responded automatically.

"DiNozzo, since when were you female?"

Abby stuck out her tongue, and then went on, "I thought rule number one was never let suspects stay together."

After a pause McGee continued the list, "Rule number two, always wear gloves at a crime scene."

Ziva picked up, "Rule number three, do not believe what you are told, double check."

"Wait," Tony interrupted, "I thought three was never be unreachable."

McGee nodded, "I agree with Tony."

Abby stood, "I agree with Ziva."

Gibbs, Jenny, and Ducky all started to laugh. "Well, Jethro, I think you should have written these down."

John in the back spoke without looking up, "Don't worry, I am. What number was the one about gloves?"

The team turned to Gibbs, "Do you actually know them?"

He laughed, "Yes. But then again, I might not and you would never know."

Abby kept them moving, "why don't we just cover the rules without worrying about numbers."

The team started to list things that were in the list. At one point Tony started to make some up (don't curse your friends), but the team corrected him. Once they were done they accepted questions. John raised his hand, "Can we tell you our rules?"

Some of the students stood up without waiting for an answer. The team moved and filled the empty spaces and listened as they explained.

"Rule number one, watch each other's backs. Rule number two, don't wait for someone to tell you the answer, figure it out for yourself. Rule number three, absolutely no purple."

"Wait," Tony interrupted, "why is there no purple? I thought that it was a perfectly good color."

"You know, tony, that in the middle ages the peasants weren't allowed to wear purple beucase the dyes used were very…" Ducky started before he was cut off by Matt who continued, "… hard to get and to make for the clothes. Therefore only the very wealthy…"

"No," Kevin said, interrupting the story, "The color itself is fine. Purple is explained by the color each gender is. Girls are red and boys are blue. When they mix they make purple."

"Well then Tony should be kicked out now," McGee jibed. The room was now filled with laughter.

"How about we move away from the rules?" Abby suggested.

"That works. But then what would we talk about?" asked Becca as the students returned to their seats and the team went to the front again.

Ziva looked around the room, "Wait a minute." She moved towards the back of the room and pointed to two empty desks in the back of the room. "There were people sitting here before lunch. Annelise and TJ sit here. Where did they go?"

The class looked down, the room fell silent.

"They didn't come back from lunch, did they," Jenny asked the students.

"No ma'am," the students murmured back.

"Well, where did they go?" Gibbs demanded.

Becca and Kevin stood, "Home, maybe, they are twins. They got a call on their cell phones, and then they left without another word."

Jenny pulled out her phone and walked out of the room. "Wait, I thought students weren't supposed to have their phones on at school," McGee said.

Becca nodded, "Yes, but TJ never follows that rule."

"Did their parents pick them up?" Abby asked.

"No ma'am"

"Did they mention anything about meeting anyone or who had called?"

"No sir, they just said they had to leave."

Jenny walked back in, "Jethro," Gibbs walked over to her. "Their father was found dead. And they have been missing. I think that the kids know more than they are telling."

"Jen, who's case is it?"

"Ours, their father was a Marine."
