Tony's phone rang he picked it up, "Dinozzo."
"We told your boss to stay away from this one...you need to stay away as well or we will kill one you love."
"Who is this? How did you get this number?"
"We know all about you and your team, to keep them safe stay away leave this case alone." the caller hung up. Tony growled at himself as he put his phone back in his pocket.
"Who was that?"
"Someone that had a wrong number." he was lying but he was more concerned about others he spoke again softer, "Cassidy you got this from here?"
"Yeah its alright Tony you can bail."
"Good..." and he walked to her car, "Call Abby she will give you a ride."
"Right leave me with her alone..."
Tony arrived at the hospital, he completely ignored the doctors as he walked right to Gibbs' room. It was obvious that he had been here before and that Gibbs had also.
"Hey boss how you doing?"
"You are late Tony..."
"Boss, I know...I sent Kate with the password though so you know what happened."
"But I still needed you."
"Gibbs, am I not good enough to help you?" Kate popped in she was agitated now.
"You are Kate, but Tony is the only one is supposed to know about this place. Its kinda like a safe house for NCIS agents."
"Oh, and I am not an agent?"
"Tony help me..."
"Not getting into this one boss you have some explaining to do."
"Damn...look this is a place where wounded agents can come and heal and no one knows they were hurt...it is kind of like a safe house in a way because it protects us."
"So you both have been here before huh?"
"Yes this is typically were Tony recovers from his...relapses." Kate looked at the two of them they were quite serious.
"Alright I will let it slide this time but my god if either of you keep this kind of thing from me agian I will personally kill both of you." they nodded a slight grin on Gibbs face as he pushed himself up in bed.
"So Tony did you find anything out about the case?"
"Yes boss the commander was pregnant, with another of our Jag friends baby. Seems her and Commander Beckz have been going together for sometime. Last time she was seen was 3 days ago at the office since then she has been missing. As far as the gunney is concerned he has been dead long before the gunshot wound. Ducky says he was kept on ice after suffering a major coronary."
"Well seems we know alot..Kate have you found out anything else?"
"Yes...the paint chips Tony recovered are from an old lead based paint sold in Norfolk. It was only used at one location, the Sun Shine Houseing complexes at 1056 Dunberry Rd. I was going to check it out today."
"Good but we need to check it out together...for now none of us are safe alone I want you two to stay together at all times alright?"
"Boss, I am sure we're fine..."
"Tony I mean it stay together!"
"Alright boss." Tony sighed...he was going to be alone with Kate...it would be torture and he knew it.
"Now both of you get!" at that they stood and left walking to their cars.
"Well its to earlier for work...where are we going to go Kate?"
"My place has nothing to offer, food wise and such. Does yours?"
"Yeah, actually for once it does."
