"Bishop?! Torres?!", Gibbs called into the walkie-talkie. There was no response. Fornell called his team, but to no avail. By now, both teams were starting to be afraid that their friends had been killed. Just when McGee was ready to rush in and find them, They heard voices. Between fits of coughing, Bishop called out,

"We're here! We're ok!"

"Can't say the same for Abaza, though.", Torres said, as they came up to the rest of the group. McGee and Quinn each gave their friends a quick hug, and Gibbs hugged Bishop and slapped Torres on the back. At the same time Fornell's team greeted each other. Then Gibbs said,

"Glad you are all ok."

"Sorry we couldn't get any evidence, Gibbs.", Bishop said.

"Me Too. But all that really matters is that you're both alive and ok. And Rule six, Bishop."

"Right. We did learn a couple of things before we had to get out though.", Bishop replied.

"Like what?", Gibbs asked.

"Well, Abaza had to have died not long after leaving NCIS. The smell prooved he'd been dead for several days. Ducky or Palmer would have to have been the ones to tell you the exact time, but he's been dead for awhile.", Bishop replied. FBI agent Simson spoke up next

"We also think that maybe it could have been homiside. The chair was too far away to have been kicked over by Abaza. Which means…." Gibbs nodded and finished the thought,

"This case isn't over and Amira is probably still in danger." That thought sobered ,the group and it was quiet for a few moments. Then Gibbs spoke up.

"Back to headquarters. There's still a case to solve." So everyone headed back to NCIS to do what they could to wrap up this case and protect Amira. Meanwhile, in Paris, Ziva had thought long and hard over the past few days. Now she needed to talk with Tony. One night after Tali was in bed, Ziva went into the living room and sat down next to her boyfriend.

"Tony. I have been thinking and I have decided that… You are right. It is time to trust our family and it is safe to let them in now."

"Are you sure you're ready?", Tony asked. He wanted to make sure Ziva knew it was up to her. That he would be on board with whatever she decided. He didn't want her to feel pushed into this reunion.

"I am positive. I am nervous about seeing everyone again, especially like this. But It is time. And I want Tali to know love from a big extended family. I know you skype with everyone back in DC, but I haven't. We were a family. I would like to have that again. If it is possible."

"Ok. I will start with my dad. We will talk to him and let him know we are coming and then he can help us get there. Maybe for Christmas. I will try and put out feelers and make sure everyone will be in town then."

"That sounds nice. A family Christmas."

"I'll get ahold of Senior right now. Then I'll contact Abby tomorrow. She always knows everyones plans for the holidays. Don't worry. I won't tell her anything about you yet.

"Thankyou, Tony. I need to tell everyone in person. Senior can know before. We will be staying with him most likely. But we may have to figure out how to not alert McGee. Didn't you say that he recently moved in to your old apartment ,and also that Senior lives in that building?"

"Yeah. He and his girlfriend, Delilah. But my Dad actually doesn't live in the building. He found a place in another building nearby. He was in charge of subletting my apartment. But anyway. There's not a chance of us seeing McGee and Delilah before the party if we lay low at Seniors place till then

"That could work. Alright. That will be our tentitive plan. Let's go call your father now."

"Ok. Sounds like a plan.", Tony replied. Together they went to the computer to attempt a skype with Senior.

Back across the pond, the case with Amira was still going on. She had not been told yet about her Uncle. Gibbs didn't want to tell her until he knew more. The team worked tirelessly and were able to track down the men that Abaza had been involved with. Abel Motyk and Abraham Meir. At first they refused to talk. After experiencing a joint interrigation by Gibbs, Fornell AND Vance, However,they caved. They admitted to the murder of Ahmeen Abaza plus destroying evidence and attempted murder of federal agents. They also gave up several more names after this harsh interrigation. After a few more days, Fornell's team and the NCIS team were able to get locations. Together, NCIS, the FBI as well as NSA and DOD were able to catch ALL of the terrorists in Abaza's ring with very few casualties. After all the terrorist ring members were in prison, Gibbs headed down to get Amira and have a talk with her. He found her and Abby playing a card game in Abby's office.

"Abbs? Could I have a few minutes alone with Amira?"

"Of Course. You can use my office. It's sound proof. Here's the remote for the door. I'll just go close down things in my lab." Abby got up and hugged the little girl before smiling and heading out. After she was gone, Gibbs shut the door and sat down,signaling to Amira. The little girl picked up Henrietta hippo and climbed into her Godfather's lap. He looked at her and began,

"Sweetpea, I have something to tell you." Amira looked at Gibbs anxiously.

"Did you get the bad guys. Did you get my uncle? Is he in jail?" Gibbs stroked the little girl's hair as he replied,

" Yeah. We got the bad guys. They can't hurt you anymore. But there's more to it than that." Amira looked worried and Gibbs sighed before continuing with the rest of the news.

Well, the terrorists are caught, but how will Amira react to the news Gibbs has for her? How will the gang react to Ziva? Ziva and Tony will return to DC in the chapter after next, but the Amira and Gibbs conversation will be posted on Saturday! Remember ALL reviews are MUCH appreciated! Please don't forget! Thanks! Catch ya later!
