The wax candle stands on the table the person's hand grabs the lighter
The menace of an shadowed figure in 15 minutes later stands there staring closely at the crisp, burnt, SUV inside of the SUV there was nothing there the car came turning to the right direction heading for the nearby area where the shadowed figure was standing still looking at the remains of the debris the next one stacked up logs made out of wood scattered together stacked on the ground light flame drops hitting the logs leaded to the fire growing in crackling in flames.
Callen stared at his own reflection in the rectangle mirror his baby blue pupil head were staring at the glass mirror he kept on staring at the mirror he was the leader of OPS team it all started when he first met ex CIA agent Henrietta Lange who rescued him from being sent to prison after the several trouble he has as a teenager she took him in and handle him worked and trained him not knowing what will happen in his his life.
He joined NCIS where he ended up being sent loaded of assignments going overseas to Serbia and Russia before joining NCIS he had other jobs in the FBI, DEA, and CIA in an unknown year Callen became assigned to the Office Special Projects stationed in California, Los Angeles a few years working with NCIS Callen couldn't understand about his personal past life that life all a blur he just wanted to know more about his family can't even figure it out.
It all started back after a drive by shooting almost killed him having been in critical condition for weeks he was transferred to the ICU until months later he was mysteriously recovering at a small apartment 4 months later he returned to work where he finds himself in a new Spanish building that was abandoned decades ago things are different things are new here including the most important thing he discovered Lara Macy was no longer there with Henrietta Lange taking over.
He wanted to know what the G in his first name actually stand for growing up in a foster home none of his foster parents, relatives or family can't even understand what the G name was Callen also trying to figure out who tried to kill him in a drive by shooting turns out the suspect who tried to kill him was CIA officer Ethan Stanhope planning the assassination on Callen he desired to get rid of all the people with knowledge of Operation Cossack a joint NCIS/DEA/CIA operation in Russia that ended up failing Stanhope compromised.
After the case of near death drive by shooting was finally solved Callen spent the whole time trying to figure out his personal life but it was cut when an NCIS agent was attacked and kidnapped in the middle of the night while driving home Callen and the team tried to find their missing agent he had to deal with being involved in cases and being there for his partner who was having a hard time with the disappearance of an NCIS colleague.
He heard the voice of someone echoing in his eardrums
Special Agent G. Callen advances entering into the living room with an pistol held in his hand setting down one and one foot after the other one with his shoes in quick pressing action on the maroon soft rugged carpet he looked up to the left lifting his head and chin up straight forward his grip helding onto the pistol, his eyes focused on the ceiling which was made out of cremation and clay glazed together he shifts the pistol turns his head and chin to the left corner side.
Sam tried to get up on 2 feet as he continued to struggle his 2 hands pressed to the hard cold cement ground with them they were supporting him tried to drag his legs away he dragged them all the way his fingertip digs the cement ground he tried to get up big on his own he was breathing in and out of his lungs he tried to pull his legs up but he was brought back down to the ground heavily breathing
In the background was an unidentified figure which Sam was unaware about since all he was focusing on trying to drag his legs away digging his fingertips deeply to the ground his fingertip felt burnt probably a pebble or rock in it he pressed his own neck his respiratory system that consisted of elastic sacs where air is drawn leads oxygen can pass into the blood on it's own he was running out of breath he was breathing heavily and rapidly felt a rasp come out of his mouth he felt the pain in his rib cage he tried to fight it off all at once he tried to stand pull his leg up even if it hurts him more than dragging his feet he jumped up and started to pace quickly on 2 feet running off he pressed the ear mic comm pressing button "G come in." he waited for his partner to pick up while running he started to Iose balance he fell to the ground he yelled in pain but all it came out was a raspy yell from the strength of someone's strong bold hands clutching and deeply strangling him as Sam was limping he pressed the ear mic comm pressing the button except he didn't hear nothing from his eardrum again he tried to run on 2 feet but his other leg wasn't supported enough.
He kept his mouth closed as he felt liquid slowly rising up inside of his windpipe his lungs were not able to control the liquid he kind of felt tasted he had the feeling he was about to retch or choke when the hands of someone strong and bold strangled him deeply to his neck he felt the nails deeply into his skin the knee of the same person push his knee down deeply into his chest pushed father down he felt his rib cage go farther down feeling like he felt one of his lower rib cage cracked the bony frame that defended, formed and around the chest.
The unknown criminal walk near him slowly on 2 feet from the corner of his eye he can see him slowly walking on 2 feet step by step not heard visibly laughing but the mouth was shut until the lips were curving and turning into this creepy smile lips tucked in from the upper lip teeth front and center briefly shown in some hell of scary darkness he slowly kneels to the ground and looked at Sam who shut his jaw shut he wanted to prevent any liquid coming or pouring out of his mouth like a waterfall he slowly stands Sam turns his head only for the sole of this man's shoe raise up high in the air he creepily smiled at the ex Navy SEAL who was about to receive more pain from this unidentified man who felt the fun wasn't over yet.
"Uncle Callen"
Callen pressed the ear mic comm and was ordering Sam to talk to him as he slowly went up the stairs with the pistol tightly and gripped to his hand the thumb not far from the trigger he was drenched in sweat breathing heavily and quietly his free hand gently pressed against the wall his shoes slowly step on another step of a staircase he pressed the ear mic com trying to get a signal and hear someone's voice come out of his eardrum "Sam." he pressed the ear mic again "Sam can you hear me." Callen said calmly while breathing heavily "Sam can you hear me answer." as he kept on calling his partner's name out on the ear mic he heard no voice, no response not even notice just quiet silence he pressed the ear mic com "Kensi can you hear me." Callen waited for her voice to come up he pressed the ear mic again "Kensi can you hear me." Callen advances up the stairs he rushes and bolts on 2 shoes he paces upstairs heading for the straight direction he moves his flashlight slowly he shifts his flashlight up along with his hand and sees the cremated glaze walls he moves it up his eyes briefly see the words the rest of them were not clear to be seen since it continued in the dark hallway all he was able to focus on and clearly see was C
He pressed the ear mic comm again "Kensi talk to me."
"Kensi can you hear me." Callen almost yelled out on the ear mic
"Kensi."
"KENSI!" he yelled out her name loud and clear he wanted to see if she will respond and yell back to him
"KENSI!"
"KENSI."
"KENSI"
He waited for her to respond back minutes later he heard no response
Callen turned his head back and forth his hand squeezed the blanket tightly pressed it hard clutching to it his mouth opened briefly and silently mumbled one word again and again his head and neck shifted up the curtains blowing quietly outside, door silently creaking open he found himself slowly walking up the stairs his shoes took another step to the staircase he turned his flashlight on trying to keep it alive and on he slowly took steps quietly for some reason static was visible in the kitchen from the other he is struggling to escape from the tunnels that kept going and going he was panting and breathing heavily as he was bolting and running.
There is sudden whispers Callen tried to twists the doorknob open a box of matches all lined up together like diced sat there next to the microwave a microwave that was left opened footsteps approaches near and into the kitchen black leather gloves controlled by unidentified hand clutches the box of matches and slowly pulls it off the table he scratches the match against the table fire ignites on the match flame slowly dances until from the tip of his finger the match is let loose and falls slowly to the ground reaching to the ground that's when the flames hit the ground.
Callen springs up from the couch and suddenly gasps his eyes open and were able to move his pupil shifts looking and staring into space he kept on gasping his mouth let the air out he put a hand on his chest felt his own heart beating and pumping inside he was drenched in sweat from that horrific nightmare he was having.
Earlier in the morning birds were chirping, the sky that turned into darkness pitch black was now turning into a dark blue sky the neighborhood area silent Callen left his own home and went to take a silent peaceful in order to get that horrific nightmare out of his mind he wanted to smell the clear fresh air, feel the warm air and look up at the bright dark blue sky.
The wooden door to the spanish building opened that stood for decades still came out strong it opened letting out an low creaking sound Callen who now acted calm and serious closed his eyes for a moment taking a deep silent breath his he wears his white buttoned up shirt, brown jacket that had black buttons to it, blue dark trousers he paces near through the OPS HQ paces near moving forward there was 2 agents seated at the desk
Kensi Blye nobody never called her by her last name by everyone except for Hetty she was one of the youngest members on the team she started NCIS in her early 20s 8 or 10 years younger than her current partner she was also the junior field agent of the team and only female agent to go out in the field up until a new NCIS member arrived to NCIS in October 2010 Kensi was stacking up some papers on her desk Callen looked at the woman and nodded his head to her Kensi eyes looked at him and nodded back before taking out a cinnamon roll she bite into it papers, documents, random stuff she brought from her home were sliding to the ground she got frustrated and Callen got up and offered to help her.
"Need some help."
"No but thanks." Kensi nodded her head no without saying anything.
Callen knew her ever since the start of her career the first time he met Kensi that started back in 2007 probably 7 months Sam joined the OPS team back than she wasn't an full time agent her boss in DC assigned her to Los Angeles in order to help the OPS team out Kensi worked in DC but not in the MCRT unit originally in 2006 she was assigned to the MCRT unit but turned it down for unknown reasons she had another duty assignment her boss assigned her to NCIS San Diego along with Leon Vance than went to LA while Vance remain in San Diego.
The Operational Manager was having a hard time trying to find new replacements after the loss of 2 or 3 agents with Mike Renko and Sam still standing Callen who was lone wolf was able to guide and mentor Kensi who wasn't that social towards anyone didn't let out one single word felt helpless and hopeless without her partner around Callen was the only to person to speak to her.
Callen was assigned to her and partnered up with her for the whole week during the case Callen tried to know Kensi and get to know her wanted to see how she was doing but Kensi wasn't that social towards him all she did was smile and wave at him she wasn't real familiar with undercover work that much she did but failed at it despite her training at FLETC people were amazed of her personality and skills but still needed a mentor Callen trained and worked with her out in the field she had more experience knowledge skills as an NCIS agent including with the lone wolf with her and supervising her she felt completely alone and helpless Callen was there for her no matter what.
After talking to witnesses Callen and Kensi went undercover as Paulson and Maria 2 best friends with a secret relationship Maria felt uncomfortable having to wear a bikini if they have to go to a beach Callen told her she does not have to do this if she is uncomfortable they went undercover as Paulson and Maria the work was going well with Maria participating as the girlfriend of a man name Diego while Paulson talk to a witness who saw a woman get assaulted last night after having an argument with her boyfriend the witness couldn't get the description out since it was dark out all he heard was the woman screaming and yelling.
Maria and Diego danced together Maria having fun with him Diego was a charming man, sexy, tanned man with a sexy voice he mainly spoke in spanish Maria was able to figure out what he was actually saying in spanish but their relationship got strained when he went after another woman late at night Paulson took her home and Maria got a hotel where the 2 remain there Maria was running around the room and kitchen where she discovered some of her favorite meals and took the food out of the fridge.
Paulson looked at the paintings on the walls and notified how old they were Paulson was going to take a walk outside and ordered Maria to stay at the hotel during his walk he found a black jeep parked not far from the hotel he passed by a a man with a goatee, manbun, in a low voice quietly speaking another language he couldn't figure out which language it was he was confused he ran back to the hotel but outside of the hotel he found a young woman bloodied, and her throat slashed he kneeled down he contacted police since he couldn't break out character he had to pretend to be a normal man who was secretly an CIA agent after police arrived he rushes back to the hotel.
He told Maria to get away from the door Maria didn't answer but jumped on the couch Paulson didn't care the next morning Paulson slept on the couch he found his arms wrapped around Maria's which her behavior became odd and strange she offered him some wine Paulson felt uncomfortable and went to take a shower only to hear banging coming from the walls but he ignored thinking it was the neighbors pounding a nail into the wall he got out of the shower he got a call from OPS saying their was identification to the young woman beaten, blooded and throat slashed her name Melissa Glendale who was age 23, single mother who worked as a prostitute to raise money for her children.
As the case went on seeing 6 or 7 bodies of women beaten, bloodied, throat slashed 2 had their heads cut off he realized there is a serial killer after coroners examined them, DNA was found underneath their fingernails, along with saliva this shows the serial killer was sexually assaulting them their knuckles were bruised they put up a fight with their killer the next night police discovered another beaten corpse laying on the ground around the corner and as they pressed 2 fingers against her neck they felt a pulse but unconscious from the severe beating she had gotten from her attacker\killer she waa rushed to the hospital and made it to surgery she was put in the ICU due to her critical condition Mike and Sam were willing to speak to her 3 days later she was able to make out the killer's appearance and quietly but scared that he was 6ft tall, dressed in a white shirt, wore black pants, black mask, sunglasses and recalled that he had an accent and armed with a sharp bladed knife.
Paulson and Maria relationship grow it turned into a strained relationship when Maria wasn't allowed out of the hotel Paulson told her to remain there for her safety Maria refused to and grew frustrated with Paulson thinking he should protect her and a bodyguard to her from this serial killer she pleaded to volunteer and go with him she didn't want him out of his sight after Paulson thinks about it he finally lets her Paulson and Maria go to Diego's home only to find him completely gone his house a mess Paulson looked around the room for him and as the door slammed open Maria was forced to run into air duct climbing thru it since she was the smallest she heard the fight happening between Paulson and some bodyguards she was about to go back and help Paulson but it was too late she found him beaten and unconscious she tried to wake him but he waa unconscious and hurt as the serial killer came by Maria did what she can to attack this man including digging her fingnerails into his face that left him 3 trails of blood dripping rapidly from his face.
Paulson and Maria were tied together and the serial killer threatened to kill Paulson after getting calls that Paulson was an NCIS agent he interrogated them all night the 2 refused to speak until a bullet is put into Paulson's chest Maria confessed the whole thing and everything including them going undercover she gave Paulson and her NCIS badge the serial killer realized she was NCIS and before he was about to slit his throat NCIS stormed into the warehouse all along she tricked them they were fake badges after the serial killer was brought to justice and sentenced to life in prison there was justice for the women.
Kensi stands at the bridge thinking about those women who were killed let out a single tear Callen joined in and see if she was okay Callen didn't understand her name and called her Maria Kensi mumbled quietly she opened her mouth for the first time not as Maria but a different woman who goes by the real name of her own Kensi Callen said his name preferring to be called Callen that's the name everyone calls him they were on the bridge together looking at the ocean they leaned in for a kiss until Kensi pushed him gently away from her and it felt it didn't seem right to kiss him.
She confessed she had a boyfriend back in DC who she dearly loved but when she met Callen she felt comfortable near him but never opened up to his past life as Kensi they acted similar to boyfriend and girlfriend but not real Callen for most of his adult life he lived completely alone on his own he once dated a woman but their relationship didn't last long.
Callen got to know her more out of anyone he was aware who she really was she was more than the new girl on the team who worked in NCIS Washington DC working normally in a suit she was a skilled sniper with a dark past she never revealed to him and even without her boyfriend she felt alone after 2 weeks of staying she went back to DC.
In 2008 she came down to OPS to help out Callen was glad to see her after the 2 were apart for 2 years they were reunited with each other and they partnered up together up until Lara Macy wanted Callen to partner up with Sam Kensi with Mike the partnership was great when Lara Macy went to DC to have a meeting with SECNAV Vance went down to Los Angeles to supervise OPS and switch partnerships Callen and Kensi were reunited again and able to go out in the field together their relationship grew closer Kensi opened up to Callen she was getting an job offering here since she turned down the one in DC feeling like she couldn't handle strict rules there and told her boyfriend about it which the 2 ended up breaking up and as it went on their relationship went even closer Kensi and Callen had this special relationship towards each other in May 2009 when Callen was gunned down and nearly killed Sam contacted an ambulance OPS were alerted by Lara Macy that Callen has been badly wounded Kensi felt shocked and concern pleaded Macy to let her to go to the hospital but they weren't allowed to.
Kensi and Mike rushed to the hospital where they found Sam arguing with a doctor about whether or not his partner will be fine and he got no answers Sam got impatient and near violent after Nate and Eric go to the hospital Nate and Mike had to restrain Sam while Kensi looked on and told Sam to stop as hours went on and on they waited all night Sam went back and forth Kensi was nearly in tears feeling like she was about to lose Callen after 12 to 13 hours Callen was put in the ICU which only one or two people were allowed to go in there Sam and Kensi were by his side for the whole time Sam left to get Kensi and others some food Mike went in there and comfort her checking up on her Kensi just stared at Callen who was unconscious and fighting for his life she clutched his hand tightly Mike, Eric, Nate left along with Sam who was going to check up on him Kensi stayed there and kissed him in the forehead she went to sleep she woke up and ended up seeing Callen having a seizure she yelled for doctors who quickly kicked her out of the room and was wheeled back after tragic hours and days of waiting for him to be out of surgery he was put on life support Kensi and Sam was by his side for weeks and weeks waiting for him to wake up but he was not moving or opening his mouth.
OPS fell apart Lara Macy left, Mike couldn't take the pressure anymore and went undercover Kensi and Sam had to partner up for months until 2 new members arrive Hetty was contacted since that was the only person Callen had for nearly his life and she was willing to open up another OPS after the old shut down and Dominic Vail arrived in September 2009 the team was completed again but there was no hunt for Callen's shooter.
After Dom went missing it turned frustrated for the whole team who loved him in May they lost him after he was gunned down by terrorists Kensi was upset and heartbroken over her partner's death Mike came in up until they find a replacement which months later Hetty hired an LAPD cop who would soon become the new member of OPS team.
Callen and Kensi were still good friends even though the partnerships are way more different here with the same people partnering up they rarely talked to other members who went out in the field but that doesn't mean they're enemies and rarely known each other they were all family they worry for one and another even if not partnered together for the job they still worry for each other no matter what look out for one and another.
There was another agent sitting alone since his desk partner wasn't there as he took out the medal and stared at it this man was no other Sam Hanna an ex Navy SEAL who highly respects the brotherhood of the military unit having been at NCIS for 6 or 7 years he remained at OPS ever since his partnership with Callen it first started out as a strained relationship since Callen refused to have a partnered or work with this 6ft tall brute agent their relationship grew slower after Sam saved Callen from a bomb and risked his life to disarm it Callen thanked him and wished he would have done the same thing for him the 2 started to warm up with each other as they became more and more partners they began to open up about their personalities and the past they confronted there were more partners also brothers without the same blood Sam who was married and had 2 kids made Callen their uncle and also hang out after work Callen who was single and alone was friends with a man who was happily married and had 2 kids the 2 were fit in as partners.
Deeks was already on the phone with someone else his phone pressed to his ear walking back and forth he was speed walking and the 3 agents all heard his voice talking on the phone but none of them couldn't make or understand what he was saying Sam and Kensi started to speak to each other about their days last night as Callen got up from his chair they just completely ignored him and continue to speak to each other he walked away and went somewhere else.
Deeks continued to speak on the phone walking back and forth in the boatshed having been around ever since 2010 the first he met them in April 2010 was when he went undercover at a MMA gym went by the name Jason Wyles the person he was going to fight in the octagon fighting ring was no other than a Navy SEAL name Sam Hanna who beat him off and won the fight while he lost the fight him and Sam's relationship started out intense unaware that he was an actual NCIS agent after the fight was over the 2 went at each other and attacked each other until they were arrested and thrown in jail Hetty bailed Sam out and told Sam that Jason Wyles turned out to be an LAPD detective name Marty Deeks and assigned him into their investigation as LAPD/NCIS joint task force Sam called him temp thru out the whole case nobody really liked having Deeks they felt upset and frustrated that Dom was now being replaced with him the next case he partnered up with Kensi mainly called her Fern once the case was over him and Kensi hang out.
He was assigned to NCIS to go deep undercover in order to prevent any human trafficking from operating him and his partner were working on but his partner was killed in an explosion while he escaped and suffer from cuts and scratches from the explosion the NCIS team went out to locate him they found him getting beaten and strangled by Russian group once he was saved he angrily confronted the detective putting a gun to his head, and assaulting him after the murder of a woman he had a relationship with Callen and Sam had to pull him back while he rage at that the fat detective after that he began the partnership with Kensi full time he became closer to her closer than anyone but he did had a close bond towards Sam.
As Callen, Sam, Kensi and Deeks waited for a case to happen and be called up in OPS they had to wait patiently even more Kensi ignored all the junk piles on her desk and talked to Sam about her day the 2 were chattering, Deeks was on the phone in the boatshed, Eric and Nell were up in OPS and Hetty nobody doesn't know where she is as she has not arrived yet to the OPS center.
Callen went to get some coffee to clear his mind off from the nightmare and keep himself awake having been up all night surfing the internet for any most wanted criminals out in Los Angeles he stayed late at OPS looking and researching any most wanted criminals that even dated back to the 1950s most wanted to infamous notorious criminals criminals to serial killers with twisted vicious minds of their own.
Footsteps were approaching coming near the stairs as a man with blonde hair, blonde beard, glasses wearing shorts, purple shirt and a jacket and also flip flops came downstairs he was the NCIS technical operator for a geek who loves to play video games and do tech stuff he whistled and brought everyone's attention including Callen and Deeks who were somewhere else
"OPS everyone!" Eric yelled and clapped both hands before running upstairs
The door shifts open Eric walks back a woman with red short hair, stranded there looking at the huge screen computer the woman was Intelligence Analyst Nell Jones who also happens to be an NCIS agent rarely goes out in the field with the 4 she was partnered with Eric Beale who at first didn't like her cause she kept on taking over his job, talking over him and interrupting him whenever he's talking but now the 2 are good partners having been out in the field together going undercover as hackers hacking into computers surfing the internet, going deeper into the internet, discovering websites that lead to answers and real information and sometimes flirting some people lead to get jealous of each other.
Eric and Nell were putting up photos of 4 people 3 men and 1 woman, images of their photos with badges, military logos like FBI, and ATF all their personalities, relationships and bio stored in folders, more images show a dead body laying on the ground next to a dumpster that was colored red Eric put up a video and scrolled it away putting it to the left corner.
The room had lots of computers and monitors with people operating behind it the windows that cover up the OPS tech room were generated and able to shift open itself without any help from a person right next to the computers and monitors was a regular phone from the 2000s it looked old and the front with the screen on it had the NCIS symbol logo on it.
The door shifts open Kensi came in first follow by Sam and Deeks and last Callen as the 4 of them found a place and area to stand to see the whole case clearly as they found a spot to stand Eric and Nell started to tell them what is really going on with this case.
What you see here is a car standing in the middle of the road last night around 10:00 pm a 4 car door black sudan was found parked in the middle of the road nobody knows why or understand the reason it parked on the road." Eric informed as he clicked the timeline replaying backwards to the day at 10:00 am "Drivers found the car parked in the middle of the road." The timeline shows other cars passing by over and over time going forward into 5 hours to 6 hours "Nearly all the drivers clearly ignored it and showed no signs of stopping their cars until one person stopped the car" The lights turned on and blinked as the unidentified male figure the timeline stops to 10:00pm he pauses the video with no sound.
"We don't know who this man is or his identification." Nell informed about it since the timeline in the video was pitch black and it was late at night the video played again the unidentified male figure was walking weirdly he gently pounded the window "There was no response until this happened." The lights turned on the unidentified male walks backwards still weirdly
"That's strange I wonder if the person in the car was sleeping all along." Deeks questioned
Eric continues to explain it "When he tried to open the door... this happens." The unidentified male figure is thrown backwards hitting the ground real quick as some quick shots of white flashing are clearly seen as the NCIS special agents looked at what they are seeing there
"What the hell was that." Sam asked feeling surprised as what he just saw
"We don't know there was more into the timeline between 10:00 to 1:00 am the lights have been on 2 to 3 hours clearly there are no witnesses there is no footage after the white flashing the footage mysteriously cuts off but the timeline still remains." Eric said showing the car lights to the team that blink on and off
"There is not the only video to this" Eric informed as the technical operator ipad beeps there was another video the video shows another unidentified male figure jogging on the pavement section outside in the afternoon but it ends
"That's it oh come on it's just a guy jogging outside." Kensi complained "How pointless is this."
Than for some unknown reasons it shows the unidentified male figure jogging again the video cuts to black after that the room becomes complete silent Kensi and Deeks mouths briefly opened Sam and Callen confused not understanding what just happened Eric's finger hit the buttons hitting each button twice he swipes the video to the left corner but he realize... this is not over yet "I lied there is no video... but this is when things get interesting." He clicks the photo and it pops up showing the photo of an man who is bald, dressed in a black suit along with a black tie he looked stoic and grim with signs of wrinkles slightly appearing in his neck.
He clicks another photo pops showing the photo of the 2nd man who had dark black hair, sideburns, dressed in a blue plaided shirt, he looked serious and handsome in the picture he also appeared to be younger
Another 3rd photo pops up the 3rd man who had dark brown hair, stubble beard that was growing even more including the neck, dressed in a white shirt, his image looked blurry and old so it was hard to tell wether or not he was sad or serious.
Another 4th photo the last one this time the person in the photo is not male but female she had blonde long hair that went down nearly to her back, dressed in a green polo shirt she was also wearing a gray jacket she looked younger and was the only one who was smiling in the image.
"4 FBI special agents were called in when 2 people broke into the bank and went into an epic intense shootout leaded to 12 deaths LAPD was already there at the time they were 3 members who went into the bank while 4 of them including an unnamed new member remained in the LAPD van 4 LAPD members were all armed with m16 rifles and pistols they stormed into the bank everything worked." As Eric pressed the video and played it the special agents were all feeling dismay, disappointment
Nell turned the volume up the video continue to play with the sounds of booming gun firing happening, yelling, gunshots, people screammg and yelling for help in an agonizing voice, man screaming in pain begging and crying pleading for his life to end the video shows bodies of the victims who had a deadly fate the victims of the shooting were helping each other thru this deadly shootout." The room was filled with pain and silence so much Nell tried not to go into tears it was stressful to watch she suddenly stopped the video.
"James Garvin, Derek Horrivich, Asalymuda Tzinuvinlast, Benjamin Zivieran were already there hours after LAPD arrived before them suddenly 4 FBI agents stormed into the bank robbery and got involved in a deadly shootout luckily lasted for 2 minutes the shooters manage to take down 3 one left standing Agents Garvin, Tzinuvinlast were shot multiple times Garvin mostly took the bullets Agents Ziverian, and Horrivich sustained no injuries." Nell explained despite being able to now control the feelings she is regaining but was talking in her normal voice
"First off how is this uh an NCIS case looks more like a LAPD robbery investigation." Deeks asked "Is it confusing that the shooters manage to shoot all 3 but one left standing so the 3rd person had to be Ziverian or Horrivich sustained injuries that felt no pain in them okay so LAPD arrives than hours after they arrived FBI arrives
"Its strange that somehow they responded to the OPS unit." Sam said "Isn't it seriously confusing that they knew who we really are?"
"The shooters responsible have been identified in this video?" Callen questioned
"Almost 3 weeks after the shooting LAPD has been working hard to identify the shooters, spoke to witnesses and victims explain to them about wether or any of them seen or known their relatives they contacted families except it failed there has been sketches and drawings of the shooters in the bank despite all the efforts from the LAPD... there was no identification of the shooters 2 weeks later after the shooting LAPD is called in this time they become the hostages FBI is called in the van rushes there 4 FBI agents suddenly stormed into the bank where the shooters open fire for 2 minutes they manage to take down 3 agents and one was left standing the shooters fled the scene in this familiar car." Eric explains
"Looks like we might have a connection here." Kensi said
"The one parked in the middle of the road is spotted again this time at the bank area look at the robbers fleeing the scene without any motion detector on them." Deeks pointed out
"What should we do now." Deeks looking baffled at the team
"Get deeper into this case Sam and I will go to the crime scene, Kensi and Deeks go and find that jogger." Callen ordered
OUTSIDE
Callen and Sam arrived to the bank where the deadly shooting happened Sam stopped the Challenger Callen who already opened the passenger car door exits out of the car he paces near the crime scene the bank a normal highest value place within a high security building it was a popular place nearly a tall building it only had 3 or 4 floors now nearly towards 3 weeks shooters opened fire killed 12 people only 30 injured LAPD went in a shootout with the shooters until they went missing LAPD didn't understand what the hell just happened 2 weeks later the shooters stormed into the same bank building again this time FBI got involved and stormed into the building the shootout only lasted for 2 minutes but the shooters manage to open fire again and hit 3 FBI agents and 1 left standing the shooters mysteriously fled the scene again for the 2nd time what the hell was even going it was frustrating.
Callen and Sam have been speaking to the bank manager who acted rude, annoyed he was already interviewed by FBI now he is being spoken to by NCIS he laid on the ground angry and annoyed thanking some random units are coming for him "Oh my god I don't know what really happened I was just doing my job for god sakes will you leave me alone!" The bank manager was seriously getting frustrated with them as Callen and Sam explained to this man but he kept on interrupting them and calling them out for coming to the bank area he owned minutes went by he refused to participate and told them to get out or he was going to call the cops on them Sam tried to keep his cool and be calm instead he was getting heavily annoyed with this man so much he wanted to raise a fist throw it at his rude not so nice face of his Callen was calm on the outside but on the inside he felt agitated and annoyed with him.
"Leave!" The bank manager yelled with his hand pointing in the other direction "Go back where the hell you came from I'm not letting you enter my building and calling it a crime scene how many times do the stupid dumb units have to revisit this scene it's off limits OFF LIMITS I SAID."
"Were not going to leave until we get answers" Sam said but raised his fist in the man's face
"Over my dead body." The bank manager calmly said
"Hold on is it strange that it happened at the same bank 3 weeks ago 2 weeks later it's a confused investigation how the hell could this happen almost 3 weeks after and 2 weeks later who the hell even staged this anyways."
"Now your going to believe what are your damn authorities anyways winning the points forget anything you see I know..." Before he can say anything the bank manager's head arched backwards pulling to the left right in front of their very own eyes Sam ran and threw himself down to the ground his stomach slides to the ground Callen flinched away and shut his eyes tightly the 2 men were blinded by something they felt warm liquid splash and splatter over the skin trickling down to their faces down to the lip Callen throw himself back first on the ground but instead landed on the hood of the car he felt his back hit the hood of the car he slides down in an uncomfortable position blinded by something Sam coughed heavily and Callen fell unconscious blood trickled down from his closed mouth.
The thick gray clouded smoke engulfs the area and devours Sam and Callen the bank manager was nowhere to be seen at all but there was amount of blood on the ground it was unknown who's blood it was after regaining conscious Sam was able to get up on his own but his other leg he had to support with his hands that had scratches and bruises but he didn't care he struggled to get himself up but had the ability to walk not normally since his leg was slowing him down he still didn't care he had survived a lot of things worse he ran quickly to his partner who was still in an uncomfortable position his head remaining on the hood of the car there were scratches all over his body, his face had minor cuts, his nose bleeding, and mouth bleeding to the neck down there was amount of blood it didn't look good.
"Callen come on buddy stay with me."
"Come on G stay with me stay with me."
"I won't let you die."
There were flashes of Sam holding his partner tightly to his arms gripping him in his arms
"Come on G fight it you need to fight the will to live."
"Fight the will to live you can't just die she wants you to live she wants you to keep fighting."
(explosion)
(gasps for air)
"His heart is crashing again."
"LET GO OF ME THAT IS MY FRIEND IN THERE I NEED TO SEE HIM."
"Heart rates dropping be the defibirilator."
"Charging.'
" CLEAR"
"You need to wake up Callen."
"Mr. Callen"
"Agent Callen"
"He's shaking."
"Please someone help him."
"G open your eyes."
"Callen open your eyes please."
"Oh god he's sweating this doesn't look good."
"Open your eyes"
(echoing) OPEN YOUR EYES
The eyelids pop open showing baby blue pupil eyes he is breathing in quick breaths rapidly breathing he felt his his heart beating inside he can feel someone's smooth skin touching the back of his hand he arches his head forward his eardrums hearing several phone ringing, people walking around back and fort heading to where they are supposed to be he can see other desks that were big computers, monitors, he looks back and notices a short woman, with black hair, glasses, wearing a brown suit, speaking several languages, fought in wars, trained foster kids into becoming secret agents this was the woman the head of OPS she looked unsettled for a moment she pressed her hands against her chest and shut her eyes for a moment in complete relief she was not the only one standing there Sam was kneeling next to him he examined him for a moment trying to see the feelings Callen is having, his eyes shifts to the hand clutching him tightly a matter of that hand squeezing his hand he looked up and saw Kensi's hand feeling anxious she looked worried, Deeks sighs a relief and smirked knowing their leader was able to regain back to consciousness they all felt concerned, worried for him some kept their real feelings silent not wanting show no fear Sam mostly.
"You okay." Deeks said in a calm tone
Callen didn't say anything he looked up at him like this was something for him say instead he just said "Better than ever." with a single grunt he looked up at the team including the OPS Manager who were all unable to think properly and react earlier when they saw Callen shaking and the effects of his movements scared half of the team whatever it was it baffled them he looked dazed and jumped out of his seat "Who are you... where are the real team." All of a sudden Callen went back to his normal self and reacted in a calm tone acting like nothing happened at all it's just a normal day "We got a case up in OPS."
"Callen you cool man." Deeks said in a calm tone but his face was fluster and confused he was not the only one his team were all confused and didn't understand what was really going on with him first he wakes up acts in a calm than jumps out of his seat and doesn't understand who his team really are all of a sudden for unknown reasons regains back to normal acting like nothing happened.
"I'm fine." Callen said without looking "Is there a case?"
"No." Deeks said in a calm voice "We need to be up in OPS it's urgent real urgent."
"Were up in OPS." The short woman said which she was no other than the amazing badass Henrietta Lange ever since the major shooting drive by happened Hetty has been assigned as Operations Manager even though all of them never knew her she was the only person who was a relative and guardian of Callen having watched him ever since the death of his parents.
"OPS EVERYONE." Eric yelled nowhere to be seen
"You heard Mr. Beale OPS ASAP." Hetty ordered everyone Sam paces, Kensi follows and Deeks walks but looks at Callen who mumbles I'm good" Deeks resumes walking again without saying a word Callen gets out of his desk chair letting out a single grunt being the last one up in OPS the door seals open, ex Navy SEAL, LAPD detective, enters following before bounty hunter, lone wolf and the head of OPS after everyone has entered in the door seals shut Eric who was behind the computer rolls his chair around, his back leaning against the leather chair his eyes front and direct at the 4 agents and Operations Manager the Office Special Projects Team currently has 4 special agents and one NCIS liaison officer 3 males and 2 females didn't matter about the rank, gender or even disability no matter what you are OPS is the place of loyal, respectful, meaningful, natural born heroes would risk their own lives to go undercover prevent terrorism, drug cartels shootouts and defend national security and countries from harm and danger
Callen was in the front arms crossed he was between Kensi and Deeks who had their arms low, Sam was next to Deeks and Hetty was standing straight she already wanted to know what was happening along with Callen.
"Callen, Sam, Kensi and Deeks." Eric said with a smirk on his face
Nell was next to Eric behind her was a chair but she didn't sit in it she was smirking but also wanted to keep a straight face she put her hand on Eric's shoulder Eric didn't mind "There is something important you all need to hear."
