For the next few days, the team were going in and out Ziva's room. Both to give her company and make sure she didn't disappear. Ziva was somewhat grateful that they were constantly giving her company but another part of her wanted them to leave her alone so she could sneak out and go home using her astute ninja spy escape tactics. But every time she thought she was alone, someone else would come in to take over. Usually Gibbs and Abby. Mainly because they knew she was not good at persuading them. Every single hour of the day, Ziva would ask the doctors if not one of the team go home and every time she asked the answer would be 'no'.

Ziva was getting better. She was eating slightly better. She didn't refuse to eat as much as she did before. Maybe because she's hungry or she was thinking of Abby's threat. She was also sleeping more too. Usually when she was told though. She was slowly getting better but also slowly getting more and more sick of the place. She was hoping to get out soon. She had actually been hoping to get out soon the moment she woke up. The doctors thought to keep her in to be on the safe side. The team agreed with them but Ziva did not.

"I'm afraid you can't leave yet Ziva. Sorry." Doctor Lewis told her apologetically.

"When can I leave?" Ziva was desperate at this point.

"Maybe tomorrow or the following day. Depending on how you feel tomorrow."

"Tomorrow." Ziva insisted.

"Well Ziva It really depends. We don't know if you'll be ready to leave tomorrow."

"Fine then. Today." Ziva suggested smugly.

"Not today Ziva." Doctor smiled.

She left. She was not up to dealing with Ziva's complaining any longer.

"THEN YOU COULD HAVE LET ME LEAVE YESTERDAY!" Ziva yelled after her.

Ziva sighed and she fell back in bed and shut her eyes. Then, she realized something. She was alone. No one was in the room with her. She thought about leaving. If I do not try now then I will not get a change to leave any chance to leave any time soon. But if I do get caught then Abby will do something. I am a trained Mossad assassin I can do it. She made her decision. She turned off the heartrate monitor and detached the leads off her body. She pulled out the IV out of her arm and snuck out of her room. Slipping past the marines when they were both not looking. She walked out and found she was actually not being followed. She felt like she couldn't use a taxi cab. She caught a bus instead. She actually made it home. She hoped the doctor wouldn't notice before she reached her apartment. She rode the elevator to her floor and she made her way to her apartment. She didn't have her keys because the doctors took it from her. She found her emergency key under the door mat and used that. She brought it in with her so whoever went to find her couldn't use it. She was glad that she didn't have her cellphone with her because then they couldn't trace it.

She changed out of her hospital gown and remembered she made her way all the way back home with it on. She changed out of it and burned it in the fire place. She felt happy to be back home. She fell in bed and she slept.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Gibbs was at work and her was typing at his keyboard. So were both Tony and McGee. He was running a lead to another case when his phone rang. "Yeah Gibbs." He answered.

It was Doctor Lewis again. "Hello Agent Gibbs. Ziva is gone again." She sounded flustered.

"When?"

"I don't know. When I went to check on her she was gone."

"Dammit." He said quietly.

"We will find her don't worry." He hung up.

He knew that Eli would come for her but he also knew that Ziva was desperate to leave. He weighed out the possibilities. He knew Eli was planning something but not this quickly. he decided it would make more sense that Ziva snuck out somehow past the marines because there was only one of her and Eli would probably come with an army of armed suits.

"Tony. You're with me."

"Why boss something wrong?"

"Ziva escaped." Gibbs sighed.

"Oh no." Tony smacked his hand to his head and shook his head.

"McGee. call Abby.: Gibbs said as he rushed to the elevator.

"Yes boss." McGee whispered to himself before he dialed Abby's number on his phone.

"Hey McGee! What's up!" Abby exclaimed cheerily.

"Hey Abby. Hey I've gotta tell you something."

"Shoot."

"Uh- Ziva kinda escaped." McGee explained quickly and casually.

"WHAT! WHEN?"

"I don't know when but she's probably back at her apartment."

"I'm going to give her a piece of my mind when I see her." Abby sounded angry.

"Okay." He said confused.

Abby hung up.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Gibbs and Tony walked up to Ziva's apartment door. Gibbs pounded on her door.

"Ziva open up! I know your in there!" Gibbs yelled.

Ziva gasped and sat up when she heard that. She opened her eyes up wide. HOW on EARTH DID THEY FIND ME?

"Ziva! Open up! Now!" Tony tried.

Ziva debated whether to open it or pretend she wasn't there. She was thinking about what was the better option would be. But Gibbs and Tony decided for her.

Gibbs picked the lock and Tony and Gibbs both stormed into her bedroom.

They found her sitting up in her bed. Ziva didn't know what else to say. "Um. Hello?"

"Ziva. What the hell!" Tony exclaimed.

Ziva just stared at him.

"I am not going back to the hospital." Ziva knew that was NOT going to happen for sure.

"No you're not. But you are going to stay here for the next month."
