THANKS FOR THE FEEDBACK. I ALWAYS ENJOY CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM. IT'S FUNNY, CAUSE I REALLY LIKE PACKAGE DEAL. I'M REALLY GOING TO TRY TO MOVE THE STORY ALONG THIS CHAPTER. THANKS AGAIN! J
DON'T OWN IT. I JUST OWN THE GOONS.
Sam and Callen burst into Hetty's office noisily. Hetty was on the phone.
"Hold on a moment, Director, Callen is acting like a child." Hetty said, placing the phone against her shoulder to muffle her and Callen's conversation. "I'm on the phone with Director Vance. It better be quick and important."
"Wait, is it about Kensi and Deeks?" Callen asked breathlessly.
"Yes. But it's need to know. Which means you two out, and I'll fill you in on what I can later." Hetty said.
"Fine. But I think he should come over." Callen said, slamming the door as he and Sam walked out.
"Leon, I think you should come and assist this investigation, considering how sensitive the information is." Hetty said quietly.
"Very well, Hetty, if you wish. I'll catch the next flight." With that, he hung up.
The goons seemed to be done for the night, walking Kensi and Deeks back to their original cell.
"We have a problem." Deeks said seriously.
"Yeah, I noticed." Kensi said, looking furious.
"Well, this one's kinda bigger, I think." Deeks said, glancing at Kensi who was standing with her back to him.
"I'm listening." Kensi said.
"Before I, you know, tell you, I just want to ask you something." Deeks said.
"What?" Kensi asked, rolling her eyes. She was now facing him.
"Are you okay?" Deeks asked, concern laced in his voice.
"Dandy. We're stuck in the middle of who-knows-where, getting tortured, and we literally have no way to escape!" Kensi yelled, breathing heavily.
"I know this is a sticky situation, but…" Deeks shrugged. "We'll be okay. Or, I mean, you'll be okay."
"Stop joking around, Deeks!" Kensi yelled, this time even angrier. "Please." She whispered before collapsing into him, crying.
"Director Vance, good to see you again." Hetty said.
"Same here, Hetty." Vance said, bending down to give her a hug.
"I hope we find them." Hetty sighed.
"What brought this on?" Vance asked.
"I just thought of something Mr. Deeks would say, that's all. He's growing on the team, especially Ms. Blye. Mr. Callen and Mr. Hanna have deduced that the kidnappers want information from Ms. Blye." Hetty explained.
"She's strong. They both are, they'll be fine." Vance said. "Now, let's go get an update, and fill Agent Callen in." Vance said.
"So it's decided that only Mr. Callen will know of the file?" Hetty asked.
"Agent Hanna can know bits and pieces, but only enough vital to the recovery of Agent Blye and Detective Deeks." Vance said.
"Hey." Callen said in acknowledgement to his superiors.
"Mr. Callen, we'll be going to the boathouse." Hetty said.
"Why?" Callen asked.
"That's need to know, and you need to know. Now go. We'll meet you there." Vance said. Hetty and Vance drove together, taking a different route from Callen. Once there, they entered in the interrogation room, which, with the camera off, would be soundproof. What was said in there would stay in there.
"Anyone wanna tell me what this is about?" Callen asked, taking a seat.
"In this file, is one of the most top secret missions in the Navy's history." Vance said.
"Ok. I think I kind of got that already." Callen said irritably. They were wasting precious time that they could be using find Kensi and Deeks.
"Mr. Callen, you need to understand how sensitive this information is." Hetty said.
"Hetty, I get it. Just fill me in." Callen said.
"Alright. Leon, if you'd like to do the honors…" Hetty said, gesturing to him.
"Of course. Agent Blye's father, Jonathan Blye, was a victim of a hit-and-run 13 years ago. It was investigated by NCIS, but could find no evidence to lead to murder. The only problem with that was that a lot of the evidence to suggest that it was a hit-and-run didn't add up." Vance explained.
"And Ms. Blye occasionally looks back at the hit-and-run file. The official press release." Hetty said.
"And they think that Kensi knows what actually happened." Callen said, disbelief on his face.
"Yes." Hetty and Vance said in unison, nodding.
"So what actually happened?" Callen asked, regaining his composure.
"That is something that only Kensi knows." Vance said.
DID THAT MOVE IT ALONG A LITTLE?
