Chapter Nine - The Cairo Mission

1995 7:03am - Cairo, Egypt - The Sunset Hotel

Jennifer was looking out the window though a pair of binoculars; she was observing the street below and the buildings that were scratched around. Jennifer was currently dressed in desert coloured pants with a white coloured tank top and matching boots; she also had a gun that was in a holstered behind her back. Turning away from the window for a second when she heard Ziva complaining.

"I can't believe you want let me work" Ziva said with a huff.

"It's Saturday Ziva, you get that day off"

"I'm happy to work Jen..." Ziva said sitting up with a sheet around her body. "What if a member of the team, needs medical attention" Ziva continued

"Then I'll let you work... "Jen said to Ziva. "Kate how's it looking out their" Jennifer said to Kate.

Kate was situated on one of the high buildings above the street, wearing clothes that matched in with the floor of the building she was on, having a good look though the scoop on her sniper rifle, noticing something out of the ordinary she reported back "Still nice and clear Jen" Kate said back to her boss though the ear piece she was wearing.

"Right oh, Kate" Jennifer replied back.

"You know Ziva, if you really what something to do, you could... lose the sheet" Jennifer said with a smile as she looked at Ziva.

Smirking Ziva removed the sheet, which caused a smile from Jennifer, standing Ziva went into the bathroom with Jennifer's eyes on her all the way. "You better turn back to the window, commander... I wouldn't want you to miss anything important" Ziva said to Jen leaning against the door frame that led into the bathroom walking in when Jen faced the window again.

A couple minutes later Ziva came out of the bathroom and walked over to Jen, standing behind her. "So tell me, does that come under working..." Ziva said leaning down to whisper in Jennifer's ear.

"Well, if you look though this" Jennifer said holding out the binoculars. "Yes, but you're welcome to stand there" Jennifer continued turning to give Ziva a kiss.

"I think I'll just get some more sleep" Ziva replied with a kiss then smiled as she walked over to the bed, feeling Jennifer's eyes on her back she said "keep your eyes focused outside..." Ziva then laughed as she got back in bed, Jen smiled and continued to look outside.

A couple hours later Jennifer was grabbing her jacket that was on the back of the chair; clearly hearing that Ziva was still sleeping, smiling as she left the room. Meeting Mark and Laura outside who asked her where Ziva was as soon as she was in view.

"Sleeping... besides being Jewish she get's this day off" Jennifer replied waiting to see if her two team members would say anything back.

When they gave no response Jennifer walked in front of them down the street, coming up behind the man she been watching for a couple of hours now, Kate watching all the way in case of a problem, the Intel on this guy said he wasn't that much of a threat.

Signalling for Mark to go in front and cut the guy off, holding his hand in front of the guy asking him to stop, identifying himself as CIA, which made the guy run in the other direction but luckily it was in Jen's direction who stuck her arm to close-line him when he run past her.

"Nice work, boss" Mark said to Jen as he restrained the guy's hands with a cable tie then check him for any weapons, when he didn't find any he stood up and brought the guy with him.

Walking him over to the car putting him in the back as Jen walked over. "Ok you three are going head back to Paris, we and Kate are going grab Ziva, go to Israel first and then we see you in Paris..." Jennifer said to Mark as Max and Laura walked over with their equipment. "You two are leaving with Mark, I'll see you all back in Paris" Jennifer said to Max and Laura when they arrived at the car.

Kate walked up to Jen when the others were just leaving "Shall we grab Ziva and get the hell out of here" Kate said to Jen as she adjusted the straps on her backpack that concealed her sniper rifle

Jennifer and Caitlin walked back into the Sunset Hotel, taking the stairs that led them to the top floor. Jennifer stopped outside her room, while Kate walked into hers. Stepping inside Jennifer saw Ziva looking out the window.

"Hey gorgeous, you not might to be working..." Jennifer said to Ziva as she packed up their things. "I heard something so I went to look..." Ziva replied looking at Jennifer strangely. "Oh... that's right you have advanced hearing, you going to have to get dressed we'll be leaving soon" Ziva nodded at Jen's answer and went to her bag to get some cloths.

Within a couple minutes Ziva was dressed and ready to go, stepping out into the hallway, Kate was stood there waiting. "You two ready, got everything" Kate asked Jen and Ziva. "Yes" they both said at the same time. Ziva walked out into the street and behind the hotel where her car was parked, while Jen and Kate went to the front desk.

Walking straight to the back of her car, Ziva put her bag in the truck and waited for Jen and Kate to return, in a second they were rounding the corner quickly dumping their things in the truck Ziva went round to the driver's side and got in, while Jen took the passage seat and Kate sat in the back.

"Kate, you're going to need you seat belt on, Ziva drives like a crazy person" Jennifer said to Kate turning to see if she'd done it, turning back and putting her seat belt on Ziva stated the car and moved out of her parking space and on to the street.

Speeding down the street, narrowly missing other cars and people; Ziva made it to the main road slamming on the brakes and taking the corner with ease. "It be about 4 hours until we in Israel, but maybe less if I can keep this speed up" Ziva said to her two passengers as she zigzagged other cars on the road.
