Previously::

"Nothing, I figured I'd check to see how everything is going? You were supposed to call me when you officially got the job." Tony said to his sister over the phone.

"Sorry Tony, but I don't even know if there is a job anymore, it's hard to explain. I was supposed to join sex crimes, then I get here and this woman wants me to play secret agent man for her-" Remy said.

"What does she want you to join?" he asked. He didn't like the idea of her working for a federal agency anyways, the least the FBI could do was be straight with her. Tony realized a while back that, after she was abducted, he'll never be able to figure out her tendency to run towards danger; he knew that Ducky would though…. [[THE FLASHBACK]]


Tony respects the hell out of law abiding Marines, but that does not mean he wanted his sister to go and join. When he had first heard that she was coming back to Virginia for good he was ecstatic and called Ducky and Jimmy to tell them the news; they scheduled a dinner between the four of them.

"B.A.U. But right now it's a tossup. I have to go before anyone sees me on my own cell, love ya bro." He listened, as Remy talked then hung up.

Ziva watched Tony talk on the phone and from his facial expression she could only assume he had been hung up on. She wasn't sure why, but as he sat there staring at his phone she got up and took some of the files off of his desk, bringing them to hers to do. When Ziva sat down Tony looked up and stared at her. Feeling his gaze, Ziva looked up as well. They found themselves having an entire conversation without speaking one word then each went back to working.

After Abby got McGee's face bandaged up she briefly thought about making a Hannibal Lector reference and taking a picture with him, but she had yet to tell him his face was blue. "Abby, what the hell?"

"It's Chip!"

"What is?" McGee asked.

"He never goes home! He comes in every single day. I thought that if I set a few traps he'd get the message and go home." Abby admitted.

sat gruffling at a particular file from Abby that made no sense; he decided to go ask her in person what it meant. "I'll be right back Zee, I need to ask Abby a question." Ziva watched her partner leave to go to the lab, Without a second thought she got up and started searching his desk for his cell phone. Aside from the papers on top, Tony's desk was somewhat organized, but she could find no cell phone. When Ziva's mind caught up with her actions, she chuckled at herself and considered giving up. Standing up from Tony's chair, Ziva thought of looking in his jacket. Cautiously, she slinked her hands into the pockets and managed to pull out Tony's cell.

Ziva stood there, behind her partner's desk cradling his phone. "It's for his safety." She convinced herself while opening the phone. She started searching though past incoming calls log. –NONE- it read. She switched to recent outgoing calls made where there was only one number. Committing the number to memory,she nearly dropped his phone as her desk phone started ringing. Making sure everything was beck in place she answered her phone. "David."

Tony was literally scratching his head as he left the elevator and heard Abby in her lab. "I thought he'd get the message and go home."

He was about to ask Abby who she was talking about until he rounded the corner and saw McGee; nose bandaged like he was hit in the face with a hockey puck, entire face blue along with his hands. Tony's instinct reaction was to drop the case file and laugh. Both McGee and Abby heard the file drop on the floor and saw Tony in shock for a fraction of a second before he started making noises that could only be constituted as laughing. McGee thought his laughter was aimed towards his bandaged face, but Abby knew that Tony was laughing at McGee's blue bandaged face, making her smirk a little. Tony's laughter got to the point where he wasn't sure if he was breathing. With a sigh, "Are you done yet Tony?" McGee asked.

No words said, Tony felt for his phone before remembering that it was in his jacket, so he went to Abby's lab phone and dialed a number. "David." He heard Ziva answer, but he still couldn't say anything yet. "Tony? Are you okay?"

"Zee… come…. lab… see… Probie…" He managed to say in between laughs. Both hung up the phone and in record timing Ziva came down the stairs. She entered the lab from the back, behind McGee, so she couldn't see his face yet only Tony struggling to breath while laughing.

"Tony?" She asked, seriously concerned for his health. Ziva looked to Abby, who pointed to McGee the same time Tony did. Curious, she stepped over to Tony to get a good look at McGee. Soon enough Ziva was struggling to not hurt McGee's feelings by laughing.

Having the ability to talk back, Tony showed no concerns for McGee's feelings, "He's like… a smurf Hannibal Lector!" With that statement Ziva and Abby cracked and began openly laughing. McGee was irritated that the team found his face so funny, completely missing the fact Tony had also compared him to a smurf.

Gibbs walked over to his desk and noticed none of his agents were there. McGee's desk was cleared. Ziva had a few files stacked up in two neat piles. Tony's desk was a mess of work. Gibbs pulled out his phone and dialed Tony's number only to hear it ring a few feet away at his desk. This time he called Ziva's phone. It was practically a full-proof guarantee that if either Tony or Ziva don't answer their phone, call the other and they're together. "David."

"Ziva, want to tell me where the hell you guys are?"

"We are in Abby's lab," Ziva laughed through the phone. She listened to the line as it went quiet. "Gibbs? Hello?"

"Ziva! You told him where we are?" McGee voiced his fear.

"Relax McSmurfie, it's not like he'd come all the way down here to see us… Well, maybe Abby and me, but not you two." Tony said. He watched as no one said anything. "He's right behind me, isn't he?" Tony turned around, facing the elevator entrance to Abby's lab.

As Tony turned around to look for Gibbs, Gibbs came into the lab from the stair entrance in the back and head-slapped Tony. "Now I am DiNozzo." Similar to when Ziva entered, Gibbs only saw the back of McGee's head and Tony, Ziva, and Abby laughing. "What is so damn funny that no one is working?" He demanded from his team.

"Nothing, boss." Tony said, struggling to contain his laughter.

Gibbs just stood there staring at his senior agent, "Well?"

Tony realized he should be back working, "On it boss!" Ziva was hot on his steps as she followed out to get back to work.

Gibbs finally turned to look at McGee, because he wasn't moving, and did a double take of his blue-faced junior agent. He looked at Abby, who was smiling, and back to McGee. "Elflord?"

That pulled McGee's attention to his boss. "Yes, boss?"

"You okay?"

"Yeah, boss."

"Well then, unless Abby's blue dye did brain damage, back to work." Gibbs walked forwards towards the elevator and smiled when they couldn't see him.

After Gibbs had left McGee turned to Abby, "What blue dye?"

"Ummm…." Abby hesitated, wishing she were doing just about anything else. "Your-hands-and-face-are-blue-from-the-glass-door." She admitted really quickly.

"What?!"

Tony and Ziva sat down at their desks, looked up at each other, and burst out laughing. When Tony's phone started ringing he composed himself best he could and answered the phone. "DiNozzo."

"DiNozzo" He heard his sister mock.

"Hey! How's it going?"

"I got a job!" Ziva watched as Tony smiled at something someone had said to him over the phone.

"We should celebrate." Peer, pizza, movies.

"I'm game," Remy said, "what time do you get off?"

He looked down at the paper work still covering his desk even after Ziva ha taken a portion of them. He knew the paper work was important and would take forever… but Remy was more important. "I'm not busy, how's seven sound to you?"

Ziva watched out of the corner of her eye as Tony scheduled a date for the night. Her heart plummeted as she caught glances of Tony's face lighting up from the person of the phone. "Get a clutch David, it's Tony. He'd do anything for a date." She thought to herself.

"Abby! I'm blue!" McGee shouted while he looked at his reflection.

"Really? Because you seem angry to me." She said, giving him a sad smile. "I'm really, really sorry Tim…" She said while looking at her feet.

"I was supposed to go on a date tonight Abby." McGee shut his eyes and let out a deep breath.

"I love you McGee. That should be enough." Abby said only immediately realizing what she had actually said to him. "Well, not LOVE-love, just love. Not like 'I LOVE you,' but like I-love-you… like how I love puppies."

McGee stood there while Abby backtracked in her rant only to start rambling. "I could have gone with out the comparison." He said, putting down the mirror.

Abby's eyebrow knitted together in confusion, "But I love puppies."

McGee walked over to Abby and gave her a hug. "More than enough, Abby." He said into her ear, kissing her cheek before heading back up to his desk, leaving Abby smiling as she got back to working.

Tony was still on the phone when McGee sat at his desk. Ziva was too busy making heself focus on work to have chuckled at the blue-McGee. Tony on the other hand jumped at the chance. "Hey, I have to go, something great just came up. I'll see you later." He said to Remy. He managed to start his phone camera and aimed it at McGee. "Probie!" Tony yelled loudly, scaring a few other agents on the outskirts of their desks.

"What?!" McGee jumped to look at Tony just as he was snapping the picture. "Was that necessary?"

"Aha! Why yes McSmurfie, it was. I want to remember this day." Tony said simply, but Ziva got the feeling he meant more than the blue-McGee. "McGee, how do I make a picture appear when someone calls me?" Tony asked seriously fidgeting with his phone.

"Go to Contacts, the person, edit, and options- it should be there." McGee spouted out without realizing Tony meant for his picture.

"Thanks." Tony said, following the instructions. "Ha! Zee-vah look at what will appear every time blue-McGoo calls me." He got up and stood behind Ziva so he could look at the photo as she did.

As Ziva and Tony were cracking up over the snapshot of McGee, Gibbs came back with a fresh cup of coffee. "Why is Elflord here the only one working?" He questioned as he sat down and checked his messages. Skimming through, Gibbs saw a missed call from Remy. He checked his voice mail and there was one new message, so he listened to it.

"Hey Leroy. Just thought I'd call you with the great news, I got a job! It's a pretty big deal too, I can't wait to tell you all about it… once I know more about it myself. It seems like it might be a challenge, but challenges are fun, right? Anyways, Tony said he'd celebrate with me, but knowing him, he probably lied about the amount of work he has to do. So, don't let him leave until he's mopped the floors. He'll be thankful tomorrow. Love you Leroy, Semper Fi."

Gibbs was smiling from the message when he looked up to see Tony staring at him. "Hey! DiNozzo, get to work!"

[[Not my best, but it would have been better had I updated sooner I think. That's my bad. Sorry that it was choppy-ish, but I couldn't figure out how else to working it so everything was happening within the same time frames. I'll get to work on typing up chapter ten~ Leave some reviews to let my know what you think? (This is not a demand for reviews for chapter ten, sometimes I just need reminders that people are actually reading this) THANK YOU ALL!!]]

:~Keggers~:

p.s. Chapter ten will be Remy POV. AND! I really suck at summaries, any one have any suggestions of a good summery that will have people reading? :]
