Author's note: I tried to update this yesterday evening but I was told the server had overloaded!!! This is a short chapter so I may write another one for tonight!!

Gibbs and Kate arrived back at the NCIS headquarters after a thorough search of the fake witnesses house. They went straight down to the lab so that Abby could start sorting the evidence, and they needed to let her know what was happening.

"Hey Gibbs did you find them?" Abby asked as he and Kate walked through the door.

"McGee's ok, but we think he was drugged so he's at the hospital, and Tony, Tony's been taken."

"His father?"

"Looks like, so we need you to start looking through this evidence, cos we need a lead Abs. At the moment, we've got nothing."

"I'm on it bossman, I will find something that will lead us to Tony."

"Good girl," Gibbs said, kissing the Goth girl on the head and walking out of the lab.

"Kate, I need you to find out who that house belongs to, go back there and interview the neighbours if you have to, but we need to find out if that woman was there for a reason or if it was a random finding."

"Will do Gibbs."

"I'll be with the director."

"Well Anthony, answer the question," Mr Dinozzo snr said, standing directly in front of his son.

Tony just sat still staring at his father, he knew it was a bad idea to disobey him but he wasn't going to play along.

"You've grown some balls since I last saw you, when you were a child you never would have ignored me."

Tony still said nothing, and he got a hit across the face for his stubbornness, he was used to the violence so I few punches wouldn't hurt him.

"We're going to have a little fun at your expense Anthony, and I'm going to thoroughly enjoy it. Once I'm finished with you, you're going to either be dead, or you're going to be broken into little pieces, and not even your precious Gibbs will be able to put you back together."

Dinozzo snr then hit his son again and left the room, turning out the light as his went. Tony lay back onto the bed thinking over what his father had said, trying hard to stay positive. He knew that Gibbs would find him, he always did, but he knew what his father was like, he knew that when he was mad he was mad, and when he said he was going to do something he wouldn't back down. Tony was scared, scared of what his father was capable of, and scared that by the time Gibbs found him it would be too late.
