Jimmy and Gibbs watched outside of Tony's room in horror. He had been fine. Badly injured and lying in a coma but he was fine. Dr. Pitt, the surgical team, and the doctor and nurse who were charged with Tony now that he was out of surgery. Had all been very optimistic that he would wake up and come back to them. Now his limp body was being shocked and a tube had been shoved down his throat. Trying to bring him back to them. Gibbs just stood there. His attempts to remain stoic and unaffected were futile. He could feel tears stinging his eyes. Tears that he refused to let fall because crying meant that Tony really was in trouble maybe even dead. Beside him Jimmy had completely lost control. Hysterical sobs racked his body. Ordinarily Gibbs would slap on the back of the head and demand that he pull it together but after the day that kid had had he just let it happen. Three minutes later the doctors pulled the tube from Tony's throat and put the paddles back on the cart. The heart-broken cry of no had already escaped Gibbs's throat. Before he realized that they had gotten him back. Doctor Pitt was assisting a nurse and younger doctor with putting Tony on a ventilator. Gibbs and Jimmy looked at each other and breathed sighs of relief. Tony was back he was on a ventilator but he was back. If he was being perfectly honest. Gibbs was surprised it took Tony this long to need a vent. He wouldn't put it past Tony to go in for a routine physical and end up on a ventilator or scaring the hell out of everybody in some other way. In the nine years since Tony had first contracted the plague. Every doctor and nurse at Bethesda quickly learned how much he meant to Gibbs and how terrifying his wrath was in you made ever one tiny mistake in Tony's care. The door opened and every doctor and nurse who had been in there trying to get Tony back. Stopped and started pointing to each other and whispering. Finally Dr. Pitt stepped out of the room and approached Gibbs.

"Brad?" Gibbs asked in a whisper.

"Tony was in cardiac and respiratory arrest for a total of three minutes. We managed to get his heart back but his lungs are currently only functioning at fifty percent. Which as you know means the vent is doing half the work for him. As of right now I can't tell you how long he will be on the vent or whether or not he will needed it turned up or down in the near future." Dr. Pitt explained.

"Any idea what caused the arrest?" Gibbs questioned.

"As of right now no." Dr. Pitt replied.

"Can we see him?" Jimmy asked nervously.

"Of course if you talk to him and show him how much you care for him. It may just bring him back around sooner." Dr. Pitt explained.

"Can I hold him?" Gibbs asked.

"I suppose just be careful of his equipment." Dr. Pitt replied.

"Thank you so much for bringing him back Brad." Gibbs replied.

"I didn't actually do anything. I just rushed in the room when I got the page that he was in respiratory arrest." Dr. Pitt explained.

"Well still thanks." Gibbs replied.

"You're welcome. Now unfortunately I have to tend to my other patients. I would like to stay here just in case Tony gives us anymore trouble." Dr. Pitt replied.

"It's OK I can watch him." Gibbs replied.

"He is in very good hands Agent Gibbs. I personally see to it only the best take care of our boy. Especially since I found out he has a little one." Dr. Pitt assured.

"Thanks Brad, I really should go check on Sadie." Gibbs replied.

Gibbs had mixed feelings about his conversation with Brad. On one hand he hadn't received bad news about his son but he hadn't exactly gotten good news either. He lived in fear of getting the results back of his DNA test. Saying that Tony was his son and then Tony would promptly die from complications. Making the only thing he did with his new-found son was bury him. He had bonded with Tony before he found out that he may be his son but things would be different if Tony was biologically related to him. He tried not to focus on his own fears so that he could call Leon and check on Sadie. They may end up needing each other more than ever if Tony died.

"Leon?"

"Jethro? How is he?"

"He crashed."

"Oh God no. Please tell me they got him back."

"They did but his lungs are only working at fifty percent now."

"I hope that he pulls through."

"Me too Leon. For me and more importantly for Sadie."

"Sadie? What should I tell her."

"Just tell her that her dad is hurt really bad and has to stay in the hospital for a while."

"I can do that but what if he uh you know?"

"If he dies I will talk to her."

"Thank you it was bad enough telling my kids about Jackie."

"I can't talk about this anymore."

"Right what do you want to talk about?"

"Well I actually called to check on Sadie."

"She is doing well. She is outside with Jared and Kayla right now."

"I am glad she is doing well. How do Jared and Kayla like her?"

"They love her. She is like their little pet."

"Oh good."

"You OK Jethro?"

"I miss her. Tony is really sick and I can't be with Sadie."

"Would you like to talk to her?

"Yes please."

"OK I will be right back."

"Hi Gibbs!"

"Hi Sadie"

"How's daddy."

"He's hurt really bad and has to stay in the hospital for a while."

"Can I see him?"

"He is really hurt right now but hopefully in a few days."

"OK"

"I miss you and your daddy misses you."

"How's Breena?"

"She is OK. She is hurt and has to stay in the hospital overnight but she will be home tomorrow."

"Can she and Jimmy babysit me again tomorrow?"

"I don't know she is pretty shaken up."

"Me too."

"We all are."

"Who was that man today?"

"A very bad man. Who you will hopefully never see again."

"He's mean."

"He really is."

"Can I play?"

"Yeah I should get back to Tony anyway."

"Bye Gibbs"

"Bye Sadie."

A/N: At least Sadie is OK. Hopefully Gibbs and Jimmy will be able to get Tony back soon. New chapter will be up soon. Please review and thanks for reading.
