It was a Thursday in October. The last day of class before Ivy Academy would break for a four day weekend. Friday was the day the teachers took to finalize their grades for the first quarter. Ivy had an earlier start date than the girls previous school and Monday was Columbus Day. Most kids were going home for the weekend. Vivian was bragging about a luxury vacation to Disney World. To everybody who would listen. Which was pretty much just her click of popular, rich girls, teachers who had to feign interest in even the most boring, over told stores, and the three or four girls who fell under the classification of "wannabees". Because of their "complicated circumstances" Mica and Kristen were among the group of girls forced to stay back at school over the long weekend. The only other girl they knew well who had to stay back was Olivia and she had no choice since her parents were dead and she had no other family to speak of. It was just around seven forty-five and the three girls were lying in a circle on the floor of Mica and Kristen's room waiting to be called to head to the main building for breakfast. Mica was trying to hide her pain and homesickness. She had been gone for almost a month now and it was not getting any easier. In fact it was getting harder. She wasn't allowed to even speak of her dad. Let alone with him. People asked and she just said he was not around and left it at that. Today was a really bad day. Her gut was telling her something was wrong or going to go wrong and she feared that it would involve her father. Tony had promised long ago to care for her if anything happened to her dad but that didn't the thought of losing him easier. It just gave her assurance that she would be protected and loved if anything did happen but more than anything she wanted to go home to her dad with Kristen and Abby Borin and be a family.

"We should do something this weekend." Kristen commented.

"We can't leave though." Olivia reminded.

"I know but we should do something on campus." Kristen replied.

"What?" Mica asked.

"I don't know but something fun." Kristen replied.

"What can we do? They don't like us to cause too much trouble?" Olivia asked.

"I didn't say anything bad! I said something fun!" Kristen cried.

"Well suggest something then." Olivia prodded.

"I don't know do you have any ideas?" Kristen asked.

"If I had an idea I would have told you, do you have anything Mica?" Olivia asked.

"Yeah" Mica replied.

"What?" Kristen asked.

"Getting to go home but we can't." Mica replied.

"Oh because your uncle works here?" Olivia asked.

"No because she misses her dad but he had to send her away." Kristen replied.

"Kristen!" Mica snapped.

"What? Oh that's just a joke." Kristen replied.

"Yeah I uh have to go to the bathroom." Olivia replied.

"Right there" Mica replied pointing to the dorm's bathroom,

"No I am going to the main bathroom down the hall." Olivia replied nervously.

Olivia left the dorm and walked down to the small janitor's closet at the other end of the hallway. She opened the door and walked inside. It was official, she could not deny it any longer. Kristen and Mica were the girls she was supposed to go after. She didn't want to hurt her new and only friends. They were all she had since her family had been killed. She figured she could just pretend like she didn't know them and when the time came the Hollis's could just kill her. She didn't have anything to live for anyway. Not since that horrible day. Her phone buzzed and she pulled it from her pocket expecting it to be a warning text from Mrs. Barnes or a text from Mica or Kristen asking if she was OK. Instead it was from the number that had been texting her regularly since the day she was abducted.

"We know that your new friends are the Gibbs and Borin girl. Lying is wrong and now you will have to pay. We will come today at noon and there is nothing you can do anymore."

Olivia took her phone and and shoved it back into her pocket. She didn't care about herself but she couldn't let anything happen to her friends. She stepped out of the closet and saw the other girls lined up waiting to go down to lunch. "Finally we are almost ten minutes late because of you." Vivian whined. Olivia opened her mouth to say something but the stern look she got from Mr. Barnes caused her to quickly shut her mouth. She shoved her hands in her pockets and followed the rest of the girls out of the building and into the main building. Instead of going to the cafeteria. She turned the opposite direction and walked towards the offices. She knocked on the door of the school's safety officer. "Come in!" a loud voice called from the other side of the door.

"Mrs. Rogers?" Olivia asked stepping in the room.

"What is it, Olivia?" Mrs. Rogers asked.

"I got a text today and somebody is going to hurt two students this afternoon." Olivia explained withdrawing her phone and showing the text.

"This is very serious, Olivia." Mrs. Rogers replied.

"I know they want to hurt Mica and Kristen DiNardo." Olivia replied.

"Olivia I know that you do not like your foster parents but they are charged with caring for you and you cannot accuse them of wanting to harm two other students. I am sorry but you are going to have to spend the day in the discipline office." Mrs. Rogers replied.

"No! I am telling the truth!" Olivia snapped.

"This is not funny and this conversation is over." Mrs. Rogers replied sternly.

Kristen and Mica sat beside each other in their fifth period class. Mica was worried for Olivia. She had looked upset when she came out of the janitor's closet that morning and then she had skipped out on going to the cafeteria and had been missing ever since. The world was silent and dull. Just like it always seemed to be on school days, then out of the blue the silence was shattered. By the sound of a bullet. More bullets sprayed and then people screamed. "Get down! Everybody get down!" Mr. Olson yelled. The students all threw themselves under their desks. Some kids were crying while others remained painfully silent. Mica could hear some softly praying. The door flung open and the sound of bullets was painfully close. She heard the desk beside her scrape across the floor and she shrank back further. Fearing that it was all over and then she heard two of the worst sounds she had ever heard in her life. The sound of Kristen screaming, followed by the sound of a gun-shot. She heard her desk move against the tile floor and then there was another gunshot, but this time she felt a pain graze her arm. The gunmen fled from the room and most of the students remained where they were. Mr. Olson walked over towards Kristen and Mica pulled herself close to her sister and best-friend.

"Kris?" Mica called.

"Get back, Mica. We don't have the all clear yet." Mr. Olson whispered.

"She's my sister." Mica sobbed.

"I know" Mr. Olson replied.

Tony was in his office when the shooting started. He immediate sprang into action; running from his office and shoving the students in they gym into the office, the locker rooms, and everywhere else he could find where he could keep students safe. He heard a gunshot that was terrifyingly close. He forced more students into the girls locker room. The shooter got closer, he took one last group of children into the locker room and then instructed the remaining students to get down. The last thing he remembered was the sound of a bullet and then a siring pain and then he fell to the gym floor in a pool of his own blood.

Gibbs hated that his little girls had been gone for so long. He was mourning children that were still alive. They had made no breaks in the case. No progress. He was wondering if he would ever see his little girls again. Abby Borin was working every day with the team trying to find the person targeting their daughters. He was getting ready to make his two o'clock coffee run when he heard his desk phone ring. He leaned over and picked it up.

"Hello?"

"What?!"

"Ye...Yeah I will tell Abby and we will be right there."

"Thank you, goodbye."

Gibbs let his phone fall back on to the cradle and then grabbed his hair into his hands. He kept his face buried and took deep, gasping breaths until he had regained composure and was sure that he was not going to cry.

"Jethro? What's wrong?" Abby Borin asked, she had taken over Tony's desk in his absence.

"That was the girl's school. There was a shooting." Gibbs replied.

"Is everybody OK?" Abby B. asked.

"Both girls and Tony were shot. Mica just got grazed in the arm but Tony and Kristen are in critical condition." Gibbs explained voice cracking.
