" Abbs, what do ya got for us?" Gibbs asked walking in turning the rockmusic to a tolerable level.

" Well, the blood on the bat is our victims. There were no fingerprints on the bat. I suspect the killer wore gloves. I did find a trace of nicotine. Our killer is a smoker." Abby finished leaning into Gibbs. Gibbs put his arm around her and pecked her on the forehead. "Thanks Abbs."

Tony turned to Kate and mouthed, 'What the fuc....!' Kate just shrugged and followed Gibbs to the good doctors autopsy room.

" Hey Ducky, whadyagot?"

" Well Jethro, our young LT here died of blunt force trauma to the head. He was hit repeatedly in the skull with the bat until he was bledding so bad there was no chance of stopping the flow. He bled to death. A slow and horrible death. I remember once back in 1967...."

" Thank you Ducky." Gibbs said and walked out cutting the famous "Ducky" saga short.

The trio entered the elevator in silence. each going over the evidence at hand trying to figure out a way to catch this bastard. the silence was braoken by the shrill singing of Gibbs's cell phone.

"Gibbs. Okay we will be right there. We got another one guys." The team ran to their desks and headed out into the field.

"Tony pictures. Kate...."

" I know, I know search around for evidence. Why does Tony get the easy job?" Gibbs just looked at her sideways with a hint of a smile.

" Talk to me Ducky."

" This time it is a Marine Colonel. Same style of murder. Blunt force trauma to the head caused by a baseball bat. He left the bat next to the body with a note attached to it." Ducky handed the note over to Gibbs who took it in his gloved hands.

Dear Unknown:

I hate the military. You are killing my people I will kill all of you. Be prepared to die.

" That is enough killing. I am going undercover to get this guy." gibbs stated to himself more then anyone. Unfortunatley Kate overheard this and her heart constricted. ' I can't lose him. I have to tell him.' "Team let's go." With that the team packed up and headed back for headquarters. The ride home was silent. Noone spoke a word. All Gibbs could think about was catching this guy. All Kate could think about was Gibbs and how she was going to tell him she was in love with him. All Tony thought about was about the hot babe he was meeting after work. Finally the pulled into HQ.

" Allright guys go home and get some rest. I expect you back here at the crack of dawn to cover my six, while I am undercover." Tony immediatley dashed for the door before Gibbs could change his mind. Kate hung back a little. She needed to talk to him.

" Hey Gibbs?' gibbs looked up at her with those piercing blue eyes. " You doing anything tonight?" Gibbs just shoke his head as he continued to pack his briefcase up. " Do you wanna come over for dinner tonight?" At this Gibbs looked up at her. She could see the excitment and joy behind his eyes.

" Sure Kate, but I insist you come to my place and I cook for you."

" Deal." Kate smiled as butterflies were let loose in her stomach. She walked to Gibbs desk and waited for him. He put his hand at the small of her back and lead her to the elevator. He smiled the entire way.
