Gibbs arrived back at the squad room where McGee, Ziva and Parker were still tapping away at their computers.

"Got anything yet?" Gibbs asked.

"No not yet boss, but using receipts and tickets amongst other thins I have managed to find a lot of cameras around Washington where our vics have been up to a week before the first murder. Unfortunately there are a lot of them, we are only up to two days before the first kill. With more people it might go quicker but I doubt it will make much difference." McGee informed, pointing at the security tapes on each plasma as well as the ones on each individual screen the three agents were sat at.

"Tony, help them, we need to try and stop the next kill" Gibbs ordered. At that moment, Gibbs' personal cell rang.

"Yeah, Gibbs" He answered.

"Delaware Avenue." An automated voice said on the other end of the line, before hanging up.

"Tobias you might want to follow me, Special Agent Parker you as well, the rest of you, keep working on that." Gibbs growled, pointing at the plasma as he headed towards the lift alongside Fornell and a confused Parker.

"Who do you think was on the phone?" Ziva asked, looking at her co workers.

"Dont know, didn't sound like a normal voice." McGee said.

"Gibbs did seem in a hurry once he hung up, and it was a very short call." Tony said.

"An address maybe, another dead body." McGee said.

"But why would he take Parker instead of me?" Tony said, looking upset.

"Maybe Gibbs thinks that she is better than you Tony" Ziva said, taunting her co worker.

"He might think that for you Ziva, but I am Gibbs' senior field agent."

"Whatever you say Tony."


Gibbs, after explaining the call to Fornell and Parker in the car, and telling Fornell to call Sacks as well, Gibbs pulled up at the start of Delaware Avenue, right behind the already parked FBI car that belonged to Sacks. The three agents got out and met up with the FBI agent on the pavement.

"What are we doing here Tobias?" Sacks asked Fornell. After Fornell explained, the four agents walked up the street, looking for the reason they had been brought here.

"Gibbs" Parker said, pointing down a large alleyway that you couldn't see all the way down becuase of the large, overgrown trees sprouting over the walls from the gardens either side of the alleyway. However, an outline of what could of been a body caught Parker's eye, and she led the other four agents down the alleyway. As they got nearer they could all see that it was a body, laying life less on the ground. Parker rushed over to it.

"Woah, hold on there Parker, watch your step." Gibbs shouted, just stopping Parker from stepping on a bunch of leaves laid just in front of the body. Gibbs walked over to them and crouched to get a better look, because there had been no wind for a while, the leaves had not moved, and Gibbs could clearly see the letter D they had formed. "Definately the same guy, got a letter D here" Gibbs said to Fornell.

"D? Whose initial is that?" Sacks said, joining the agents.

"Doctor Mallard, his first name is Donald." Fornell explained to his agent. "Agent Sacks, why don't you go knock on the houses next door to this alley way, see if anyone heard anything."

"On it Tobias" Sacks said, before standing up and leaving, not noticing the pair of suspicious eyes watching him as he left.

"Speaking of Doctor Mallard, you better call him" Fornell said.

"Nah, I'm feeling nice today Fornell, you can have your ME do this one" Gibbs said.

"Gibbs your never feeling nice" Fornell replied, causing Agent Parker to smile. Which both agents noticed.

"Yeah well I was this morning when I sent Ducky and Palmer home to get some rest." Gibbs said, staring at Fornell.

"Jeez Gibbs you were nice to someone, you should of filmed it, probably could have sold that video for millions it's so rare." Fornell said, grinning as he pulled out his phone.

"Tobias, Agent Gibbs! you might want to take a look at this." Agent Sacks shouted from the other end of the alley way. Tobias hung up, Gibbs instructed Parker to stay with the body befoe the two agents walked up to Sack.

Inside the house, Sacks led the way upstairs and in to the bedroom, where a man lay in a pool of blood in his bed. As well as that a big letter J had been scrawled on to the wall behind the bed. "He hasn't been dead long I don't think, I think some of the blood might still be wet." Sacks said.

"Dammit Gibbs, two at a time, he's getting confident now." Fornell said.

After a couple of hours of Gibbs and Parker clearing up the alleyway murder while Fornell and Sacks did the home murder, it was confirmed by the FBI ME that the deaths had only been minutes apart.

"Alright, let's head back." Gibbs said, collecting the evidence and heading for the car.


*Ping*

Walking out the elevator, Gibbs saw his three agents sat at there desks motionless. He walked in to the squad room and saw that they were all asleep, the plasma still running the security tapes. Gibbs whistled loudly, waking them all up with a start.

"You three, double homicide with Ducky's and Palmers initials on, I'll tell you the rest tomorrow. For now, go home. We're not going to get anything done like this. Parker, you can go to. Tobias, Agent Sacks, you might as well go to. We'll continue in the morning." Gibbs ordered, all the agents except Fornell left for the elevator in a hurry, not waiting for Gibbs to change his mind.

"I take it you are going as well Gibbs?" Fornell asked once the other agents had gone.

"Sure Tobias, what am I going to do here on my own." Gibbs said, before getting up and heading to the lift with Fornell.


The clock read 3:00:00 am, yet Gibbs was still hammering away at his new boat, he had successfully got the case of his mind, if only for a few minutes. Then the phone rang.

"Gibbs!" A voice sounded down the line.

"Abby?" Gibbs said, confused.

"I got a print!" Abby said excitedly.

"What are you still doing up."

"Long story Gibbs, but you are not going to like who this print belongs too."

"Who?"


The house appeared in the distance, right on the end of the street. All the lights were off. The agent was obviously taking advantage of the break Gibbs had given them. I approached the house from the back, I knew where the bedroom was, I had already been in this house twice this week. This kill hadn't been part of the plan, but it was now necessarry, and also it would rock the rest of team Gibbs. She had been checking up on me, I had opened her laptop on my first visit, saw that she had been tracking my movements against the times of the murders. She had to be stopped. I slowly, silently and stealthily made my way in to the bedroom. There she was, the agent fast asleep. I had been expecting some sort of challange, but as I got nearer she still did not stir. I watched her for a few seconds, watching her take her last breaths. Then, I struck, the knife plunged deep in to her throat. This would be personal. her eyes flew open, but she could not speak, after another two stabs in to her stomach she went limb, blood was everywhere. She was dead. I took out a small paintbrush and dipped it in to the blood that was now dripping onto the floor. I wrote four letters on to the wall, this one was personal. The other letters were just a sub plots. The L for Leon, L for Leroy, T for Tobias, Z for Ziva, T for Tim, A for Abby and the D and J for Donald and Jimmy. But this one was different, this one was most definately personal, and I was loving it. After a few minutes I was finshed. I walked out, leaving the dead agent laying there on the bed.


If this is maybe a bit too violent I apologise, I wrote this straight after two straight fixed games on Fifa. :) Anyone want to take a guess at the agents name, you'll find out tomorrow.
