Last time on Long lost daughter:
Ixchel screamed.
"Calm down darling calm down" Tony said trying to calm her down.
But, before the team could do anything, Ixchel's world went black and she slipped into unconsciousness.

When Ixchel woke up, everything was in a bit of a haze. All she could see was two outlines of people hovering over her. At first she couldn't make out who the two people, until her world looked normal again. It was Gibbs calling my name, and Tony just looking over her with worry in his eyes. Gibbs mumbled something to Tony, but Ixchel couldn't make out what they were saying as her ears couldn't adjust to all of the noise. She only realised what they were talking about when Tony came back with an open water bottle and poured it onto her face.
Ixchel was startled and sat up very quickly and looked up at Tony "Oi! No need to have done that because I was awake!"
"Well it's good that you are yourself again" Tony said smiling.
Ixchel just growled at him and Tony chuckled.
"There is a reason I sent Tony to get his water bottle" Gibbs started and looked at his watch "You have been unconscious for an hour and I was getting worried"
"Wow!" Ixchel said smiling "Men getting worried, that's a new one on me!"
Gibbs just ignored her comment and just chuckled.
"I have found out, thanks to Ixchel, that the CIA somehow have a file plan to bomb NCIS, but these are a few months old, which means these were for the last bombing" McGee suddenly said.
All three headed over to McGee's desk. Ixchel was stopped dead in her tracks when she saw somebody outside of the window that she was all too familiar with.
A Sniper was outside of the window 200 yards away.
"DOWN!" Ixchel shouted as she reached for her gun.
Everybody ducked where they were and two gun shots rang out of Ixchel's gun. This lasted only one or two seconds as she hit him.
"Everything is alright now" Ixchel said. Everybody, confused by what just happened, continued with what they were doing.
Ixchel turned to the team, putting her gun back in its holster.
"Who the hell were you shooting at?" Gibbs' first question was.
"I finally got him" Ixchel said, completely ignoring Gibbs.
"Got who?" Tony asked.
Ixchel sighed. This was the right time to tell them as she had now connected all of the dots. "The CIA has been after me for the past 2 months. I don't know what the hell there problem is, or now was. I shot that guy, finally. The other few times my aim wasn't so good"
"Why do you only tell us that now? It could have helped us!" Gibbs said sternly.
"For your information, I thought it was nothing to do with this. I only realised when McGee mentioned the CIA, and there being a shooter outside. I had to connect all of the dots first before I set off an alarm!" Ixchel said sternly back.
Tony's cell phone went off. He quickly picked it up. "DiNozzo….. ok…..I will tell him" he declined the call and put his cell phone back in his pocket.
"Who was it?" Gibbs asked.
"It was the director" Tony started "she said that she sent Hollis Mann's team out to investigate the man that just got shot, so we don't have to do anything"
"WHAT? Gibbs started "Since when did Hollis join NCIS?"
"Didn't you find out? She been working her for a week" Tony said, and Gibbs looked blankly at him. "OK you didn't"
Gibbs was about to say something when Ixchel spoke.
"Hollis Mann?" Ixchel half said half asked, thinking that she may know her.
"Yeah, do you know her?" Gibbs asked, turning to her.
"Oh yeah I sure do" Ixchel started with caution "She's my boyfriend's mum"
Gibbs just froze. She had never told him she had a son and now she was a bit angry with her. Not only had he never known that she had a son, also she hiding him away Gibbs. Gibbs wanted to soon have a word with her.
"I'm surprised she's allowed to be out in the field" Ixchel suddenly blurted out, getting everyone's attention "She's 4 months pregnant with her second child. Edward told me that last month. Also, I talked to her privately whilst Edward was having a shower after football practice. I ask her if she knew who the father was because her husband had died a lot of years ago, and she answered….." she trailed off realising what she was about to say.
"Who?" Gibbs asked wanting to know who it was, potentially knowing who it was.
"Oh shit" Ixchel started "I'm so bad at connecting all of the dots that I completely forgot the obvious… the father is…is… you Gibbs"
Gibbs almost froze. What stopped him was realising why it was him. He had been dating for a number of years, without the team knowing. The indication he was giving to the team was that he had broken up with her, but he only did that so his team could actually work without getting distracted. He remembered that he might have gotten too close to her four months ago, when a simple kiss turned into something deeper. To make sure it was really him, Gibbs asked a question.
"Are you sure?" Gibbs asked.
"Yes I'm sure because she said to me that the father was Agent Gibbs who works for NCIS. Of course I'm sure!"
"Erm… guys?" McGee suddenly said sounding worried. "I have received a message. It says that if we don't give Harper Dearing a 1 million dollar ransom in the next 6 hours, then Ziva and Kate will die"
With this information now imbedded in everyone's minds, everybody was worried about them now. How will they find them? But an even bigger question arose. Where would they get 1 million dollars from?
A/N: How was that? I'm sorry to those who thought that this chapter was going to be about rescuing Ziva and Kate, but I wanted something else in this chapter for the whole story to make sense. Also, just to let you know, I have changed the name of the last chapter from 'Finding Them Part 1' to "Searching' because the story would then make much more sense. Reviews please?
