anyone.
Still on the long, narrow road to Cheyenne Mountain, it seemed as if they were getting nowhere fast. Stopping at a bend in the road to check it out, they split up to cover the ground faster. Katie Todd kept going straight, Tony Dinozzo went right, and Leroy Gibbs went left.
Both Katie and Leroy were back at the car in under fifteen minutes; however, Tony was still out there. Walking in the direction he was last seen going, they heard a scream.
***
The reason he was late getting back was because he thought he heard something or someone. Knowing his curious nature, he went after the source of the sound and saw someone in strange armor running really fast. Pulling his weapon, he was ready to fight against whatever this thing was.
"Hey you, stop right there" Tony told it, raising his gun.
The creature, or whatever it was, seemed startled. He raised a strange, long stick-like thing and aimed it at Tony. Assuming it was a weapon of some sort, Tony fired off a few shots, which just bounced off the silver plating. A blinding streak of red darted across his path. Was Tony Dinozzo seeing things?
Another streak of red caught him in the shoulder and it burned like fire. He screamed and dropped to the ground like a sack of potatoes.
***
His friends caught up to his position and dragged him away while shooting the creature that was out there, whatever it was. Tony passed out when he fell to the ground, and he seemed to be putting on weight as they pulled him to the car.
Once they were all in, they sped away from the scene in those trees, going to the nearest place, Cheyenne Mountain.
Upon arrival at the metal gate, they were asked for clearance.
"My man was shot outside your facility, and I would like to know what is going on here. Let me speak with your superior", Gibbs demanded.
He was angry now, and he wanted to know what was going on in this mountain.
The airman at the gate peered into the car and looked at Tony. He recognized the wound and gave them immediate clearance to enter the facility.
Once inside the mountain, they got out of the car and handed their IDs to the men inside and told them their story. After that was over with, they gave up their weapons and the infirmary was called up to the level they were on.
***
Dr. Janet Fraiser wondered why she was called to the entrance of the mountain. Usually she was called to the Embarkation Room, not the entrance to the complex.
Rushing up there with a team as fast as they could, she saw two men and a woman. None of them were in uniform, but one of them was injured. Placing him on the gurney she had with her, Janet looked at his wounds. He had a slight scratch on his head, but his shoulder was shot...with a staff weapon.
"I have to get this man to the infirmary, call General Hammond" Janet informed a nearby Sgt. Siler.
He nodded and did as he was told. Once assured that the general was on his way to the infirmary, Siler escorted the other two people behind the rushing medical team as they went back down to the infirmary.
***
Great, just great, a general was down to see them. Of course, he didn't really expect any of this to be happening, but now that a general was on his way, he didn't particularly like it. Of course, now he could ask what was going on, but Gibbs was anything but pleased about the whole matter.
He was concerned, of course with how Tony was doing. He shoulder looked like it was hit with pure fire, no wonder he screamed. But Gibbs was also wondering about that being that had done the shooting. He was wearing something that Leroy had never seen before, and most of the bullets just bounced off of it.
Agent Gibbs was unable to see his hot-shot agent to see how he was fairing, but finally, a short bald man walked in the doorway.
