Author's note: I do not own anything
Rountree walked into ops, hoping Fatima had found a lead on their missing teammates. As soon as the doors opened, Fatima looked up. She ran over to him and put her arms around him. She suddenly couldn't control herself and burst into tears. Rountree was a bit shocked, but he gently hugged her back. "Hey, hey, take a deep breath. It'll be okay," he whispered as he gently rubbed her back. "We just recieved a video, I was about to come tell you guys but I needed a minute, I'm sorry," she whispered. "Hey, come here. It's okay. Tell you what. Let me get Callen and Sam, then you can play the video," he whispered. "No, it's bad, I can't watch it again," she sobbed. "You can't watch it againlike it won't let you, or you can't watch it like it was too traumatizing?" he asked gently. "Too traumatizing, plus Kensi would be so embarrassed if she knew the whole team saw it," she said, still crying. "Hey, if there's even a chance that there could be a clue, we need to go over it frame by frame. Okay? Because we need to find them, before Kessler gets out of the country with them, if he's not already. Be right back," he said. He quickly ran downstairs. Once Callen, Sam, and Admiral Kilbride were there, Rountree went over and played the video. He squeezed Fatima's hand gently. Almost immediately, Kensi appeared on the screen. She was completely naked, And she looked weaker than ever. Her entire body was covered in bruises and cuts, and she had a gunshot wound to her leg. Deeks could be seen in the background, tied to a bed. His injuries appeared much more minor, he only had a few cuts and bruises. Then Kessler appeared on the screen. He grinned at the camera and started kissing Kensi. They could see the pain and fear in Kensi's eyes. She let out a tiny sob. Then the video cut off. "Agent Namazi, try to trace it. I want this guy's head on a platter," Kilbride snapped. He walked out of the room and into his office. Rountree reached over. "Come here. I'll stay with you until they have something for me to do, okay?" he whispered. She nodded and began typing at her station. Then she started crying again. Rountree gently put his arms around her.
