A/N: sorry for the long period of no updating just lost my muse for the story and have had this chapter ready for a while now and finally added it


Travis Andrew's walks into Abby's room and see Franks there and he looks over to the ex agent not missing the sign of a gun in back of his pants and hands her a bag of food and of course her No Caf-Pow earning a smile from the happy goth and slides down in one of the chairs drinking a coffee before breaking the silence in the room, "So far have found nothing new that didn't know. All they are doing now is talking with someone in MTAC that may know something."

Abby sighed as takes a drink hoping to get a normal one and soon, "Eventually we will find something to get the shooter. Sleep anytime recently?"

Franks looks over at the man seeing he looked exhausted, "Looks like haven't slept in a few days. Should go home."

Travis chuckles at him, "Insomnia and sleep when I can. Rest of my team is running everything so far and nothing new but have to wait and see what they get."

"So far we have no clues still on who decided to shoot up the lab or where Tormentor is or why he let her go. Guards will be outside both rooms at all times."

a few hours later

Callen walks into Abby's room to see Franks and her asleep and he sets down a vase of black roses and a few balloons and turn to see Luca open the door and he motions for him to follow him outside of the room and they shake hands, "Everything okay? Seen the guards?"

"Yeah, just a precaution that's all," he said hoping to relieve some anxiety. "Right now is asleep but can go in and sit with her."

Vance joins him after Luca goes inside the room, "Agent Callen what brings you here?"

Callen turns to face the Director taking a sip of coffee, "Was in town to see Gibbs who had told me what happened and decided to stop by. Anything?"

"Nothing that already don't know. Andrew's headed back already to look at something but have to see."

Franks looks at the door when opens and nods at the younger man, "Nice to see made it."

He sets down a few flowers and a bear, "Well, flew in to Dulles about an hour ago but everything okay?"

"Yeah, nothing probie and his team can't handle. No need to worry," Callen said as he walked into the room trying to reassure his friends brother who was worried for his little sister. "Just something about an old case od theirs that trying to make sure nothing goes wrong."

Gibbs and his team walk out of MTAC to see Andrew's at his desk swearing at someone on his cell phone as they sit down at their desks and once he hangs up he walks over and pops something up on the plasma screen that's in their bullpen, "Bullet that went through the window in the lab a month ago matches up to a bullet that killed Petty Officer Max Collins last night in Quantico. My team got the case and seems Pete just was able to make the match since was badly damaged when hit his body."

"What we know about PO Collins?" Tony asked him. "Why shot at Abby and wait a month and kill him?"

"Not sure about that but Vance wants your team to take over the case since my team is due for time off that is mandatory after the shootout yesterday," he hands them a case file. "Everything we have and all of the evidence is down in the lab. My case so will be working with your team."

Tony sighs, "So, is rule #38 in effect?"

Gibbs nods at his senior agent, "Right now your on the team and work the case with us."

"Fine by me, at least but can show you were we found the body?" He grabs his backpack. "Coming or not?"

The ride to the scene is in silence and once there can see just the tape and he leads them to the area taped off, "This it?" McGee asked.

"Jogger found the body after his dog started barking for no reason and then he called the cops and they called us once they found out he was military. More than happy to hand it over."

Tony looks around and spots something, "Found something boss."

Gibbs and Travis walks over, "What you got DiNozzo?"

He holds up a piece of paper as a note, "Seems someone left this for us."

Team Gibbs,
this is definitely not my first kill that you have but failed to notice.
seems even the lab isn't as safe as use to be if can shoot at it.

your families may have guards but doesn't mean their safe.
see you all real soon,
Tormentor

"That name mean something to you guys?"

"He's the man who had kidnapped Hollis a month ago but we found her a week later but no sign of him anywhere near where she turned up," Tony told him. "Send it to Pete and see what he can get. Need to get them to a safe house or somewhere more secure, boss."

"Well, Pete can look into unsolved shootings in the area that maybe related to this man," McGee said. "What about-"

"Vance will double up security and once can leave take them to the Navy Yard," Travis suggested. "No place is more secure than there."

a few hours later

Abby looks up as the door to her room opens and smiles as see McGee walking in with a more food and a No Caf-Pow and he hands them both to her and kisses her on the lips softly before sliding down into a chair next to the bed yawning and she sighed, "What's wrong?"

"Travis and his team handed over a case to us and seems that the Tormentor was responsible for the shooting in the lab and a few other deaths that we haven't connected according to a note he had left at the latest crime scene after they had searched the area and wasn't there last night."

"Which means he had gone back after they left and put it there but how did he know you would go back there?"

"Not sure but his team was taken off the case after they were in a shootout with some gang members and needed a few days off," he pulls out his phone dialing the lab. "Pete can you check the bullets from the shootout and see if any connections to any open case Gibbs team has?"

Typing can be heard over the phone, "They match some bullets found at the house where Hollis was found. Gang members house there too."

Gibbs walks in just then and see him hang up, "What you find?"

"Seems the bullets from the shootout his team was involved in are connected to the bullets we recovered in the house where Hollis was found."

"So means that they were all thee but what's this mean?" Abby asked looking at both of them. "What are we going to do?"

Callen walks into the room, "Could keep an eye on you both after put in the same room."

She sits up and pulls him into a bone crushing hug, "What are you doing here? Not that miss seeing you."

He shakes his head and plants a kiss on top of her head, "Hetty gave us all a week vacation after case load we had and came here."

She rolls her eyes, "Were switching rooms again?"

"Easier to guard both of you if in the same room and be out in a few days. Safe house once get out."


a few days later

Gibbs walks into his place after making sure the doors were all locked to see Tony and Ziva sitting on the couch watching a movie and grins as walk into the kitchen and see his youngest daughter making something as he leans against the wall and watches and Abby says, "No lurking without permission," without turning to face him. "Back already."

He can't help but grin but soon fades, "Thought, you were going to take a nap?"

She sticks her tongue out at him, "Couldn't sleep so put him in the play yard in the livingroom with goofballs in there while cook dinner. Timmy went to take Luca to the airport and Hollis decided to take a nap while both of the babies are also doing the same thing. Hungry?"

He pours himself some coffee and kisses side of her head, "Sure looks pretty good. Where is Callen?"

Callen walks in the kitchen and snatches a bottle of water from the fridge, "Went for a run since needed to get away from Tiva bickering which can be worse than listening to Densi." He can see the confused look on his mentors face for the nicknames. "Tiva means-"

Abby interrupts him by pushing him away, "Shower before dinner," she watches him leave. "Tiva means Tony/Ziva and Densi is Deeks/Kensi."

"Yeah I figured that out on my own Abbs but almost done?"

She glares at him, "You mean before those two kill each other in there? Yes in a few minutes."

McGee walks into the house to see Tony pinned to the ground with Ziva sitting on his chest snickering, "Not going to ask."

Ziva nods at her friend before tapping her fiance on the cheek, "Going to shut down so can listen to the movie or find the duct tape?"

McGee shakes his head before correcting her, "Ziva, its 'shut up' not down."

She shrugs before standing up and moving to pick up her godson who was crying, "Never the less, he wont shut up so can watch the movie in peace."

Gibbs walks in and slaps the back of his head, "DiNozzo, shut up or will let her finish what she was doing a second ago."

Tony rubs the back of his head before sitting with his back against the couch, "Shutting up now boss."

Abby walks into the room, "Dinner is ready if want to eat or wake her up."

Gibbs carefully walks up to his bedroom to see his wife curled up under a blanket asleep and once looks inside the bassinett sees the baby awake and heads back downstairs to join rest of them, "Will let her sleep for now and she can eat later when wakes up if want to."

Callen hands him a warm bottle before the baby starts to cry, "Figured he would be hungry."

/

Once everyone was done eating and the dishes were done everyone was gathered in the livingroom with both babies asleep in their father's arms as Abby lays her head on McGee's shoulder trying to hide her yawning as turn to Tony was looking through some movies, "Pick one already."

Tony turns his head to glare at her before putting one in the DVD player, "There, haven't seen this in a while."

Callen shakes his head as see the previews, "Indian Jones and the Temple Of Doom?"

He turns to face the other senior agent once he sits on the floor next to Ziva, "What we have seen a few of his movies but not this one."

"Yeah, but thought you would have found something more-"

Abby leans forward and slaps the back of both of their heads, "Quiet or go somewhere and argue."

Callen rolls his eyes at her before leaning back in the chair, "Let's watch the movie."

***NCIS***

a few hours later

Gibbs turned off the movie after realizing the rest of them had fallen asleep and he covers Tony/Ziva who were asleep on the floor up, McGee and Abby were asleep on the couch and he puts Ethan down in the play yard in the room and see Callen sitting outside, "What never sleep?"

Callen doesn't turn to see him, "I do once in a while but Nell took the opportunity before the baby comes to go home and see her folks and told me to come here."

He hands him a cup of bourbon before sitting next to him on the stairs, "Not the same with having Sam's kids around and now going to be your own?"

"Nell, has been talking nonstop with Hetty about what they are going to do with the new place which is going to be done while were gone. I love Sam's kids but going to be different since didn't ever think would meet someone like Nell and end up settling down and having this."

"In time you will get the hang of it but remember to that your team can be more useful when need sometime alone."

"Yeah, Sam said no babysitting until the kid is at least crawling but not sure that will last long. This bringing back some memories?"

He runs a hand over his face knowing what he was getting at, "Reminds me of when Shannon and me brought Kelly home the first day and only ones here were her mom and Jackson. Nick was deployed at the time but did show up to see her about a month later. Memories come and go but am dealing with them to enjoy this."

"Surprised that Ducky didn't show up tonight to do something with you."

"His mother is getting worse with her Alzheimer's so he wanted to get her looked at so will stop by tomorrow. Nick, Craig and Jeremy will by in a few days when they get the time."
