Dark Void

Chapter 110th

Alicia watched Gibbs be placed on the stretcher looking so pale with the lost of blood. Doctor Palmer shaking his head thinking that Gibbs and Loreile had been so much during the past three years.

While the two bodies were now ready for transport with the ambulance outside placing Gibbs inside with Lt. Jamieson going with him as emotional support.

Meanwhile with the NCIS agents Tyler and Brown were told that both of the Russian snipers were hiding out in the attic having deactivated the motion sensors. "This is where we will be heading to check out the attic. Maybe they were able to leave further evidence?" Lt. Brown had to say on the subject.

Alicia and Palmer along with his assistant had watched the two of them to head upstairs to investigate the attic checking for any other booby-traps.

Palmer and his assistant carried the bodies out one at a time with the yellow banner with a number of the neighbors still curious as to what exactly had been going on. Police officers at the perimeter had been pushing them back to let the coroner do his job with getting the bodies into the van and back to NCIS Naval Yards.

It was Alicia's job to call Loreile to give her the bad news about her husband. Loreile wasn't able to sleep after checking on the two boys twice from being restless for the most part.

She had placed her cell-phone on the table next to the double bed. While she was laying on the top of the bed. She was just about ready to get up when the phone started to vibrate. All of a sudden her heart was now in her throat after seeing the name on the screen to be Alicia for the I.D.

"DAMN!" She grabs the phone quickly to answer it with trying to keep her voice down low without waking the boys. "What's wrong?"

"I am so sorry Loreile to be call you like this. However Gibbs had been shot in the stomach with the two Russian snipers having set up a decoy outside the house with explosives and smoke bombs. While the one Russian had caught Gibbs off guard with hitting his face with the butt of the rifle before shooting him." she said with anger in her demeanor.

"Alicia did you get them both ?" she needed to know with wanting to hit something with her hand.

"Damn right I did Loreile before calling for an ambulance. While Lt. Jamieson from across the street helped Jethro until the ambulance had arrived and went them to the hospital."

"Listen as soon as you're free with all of the questions from the police. Close up the house with coming here to the safe house with the car so that I will be able to head for the hospital?" she said with annoyance...

"I will Loreile. However I wanted to let you know that NCIS is here as well to investigate with orders from Director Vance. But in the meantime Tyler and Lt. Brown are up in the attic checking it out for any other type of evidence."

"When you get the chance call me later so that I can get you any type of news in regard to my husband?" she commented with hanging up to pack another go bag to be staying in the hospital for the time. However she doesn't want the boys to know at this time that there father is in the hospital.

Moments later Tyler and Lt. Brown came down with further evidence of paperwork found written in Russian that needs to be translated with an expert and a cell-phone to checked over by the lab at NCIS and see if Kasie will be able to find out which calls had been made that will lead to who was in charge of trying to kill Gibbs in the first place.

"We will bring this back to NCIS and have Kasie called in since this is extremely important to figure out the truth." Lt. Brown needed to say to Alicia asking questions from a detective Don Ascott of the local Metro police walking out with the answers he needed. Though he was next going to talk with some of the neighbors and those of the D.O.D. living across the street.

Meanwhile she watched the two NCIS to leave with Palmer and his assistant cleaning up before heading back to NCIS to start with the autopsies in the morning.

Once the house was emptied out. It gave Alicia the chance to close up the house with putting together her go bag to head out for the Evergreen safe house. She had gone up the stairs having chills throughout her entire body after what had happened earlier with Gibbs being shot.

She started to pack the things she was going to be needing. She had brought the go bag downstairs with making sure that the kitchen door was locked before dressing warmly for outside with the cold. She locked the front door with her keys to be heading for her vehicle and warming it up for a moment or two before taking off heading for the safe house.

She didn't wish to be in the house any longer with the remnants of the ghosts of those two Russians on Gibbs floor. She headed for her vehicle with everyone now gone and hopefully to hell with the both of them.

Pulling off and onto the main road to head for the Evergreen safe house. She was exhausted and will try to sleep once Loreile takes off for the hospital. She knew that no doubt the two boys were going to be up early wondering where their mother had gone and she has the excuse to be giving the both of them. Even though the both of them won't be believing her at all.

She had checked on them before heading into the same bedroom Loreile was sleeping in. Shane and Nathan had been sleeping together since the both of them were scared with being in a strange place.
