Light forced its way through the blurred mind of Anthony DiNozzo as he laid upon the cold ground of a locked room. His weak hands slowly moved to his bleeding forehead.
"Did you enjoy your sleep Mr. DiNozzo?"
"Who the hell are you?"
"Oh, you don't remember? The only true man you put away that told the honest truth."
"...Wolfe...Midshipman Wolfe..."
"Ah it seems you are smart after all DiNozzo. So then tell me something, why did you sign for my parole knowing full well that I would be at your throat?"
"Why not? Seemed like the right thing to do since I as you said was a fool." He was jolted by a sharp kick in the side, his body hitting the concrete floor with a dull smack. He coughed blood spilling from his mouth as he was repeatidly beaten.

Gibbs paced up and down Abby's lab, his hands firmly placed within his pockets as he growled slightly. He kept moving in quick movements, each leg slamming down onto the ground. Though he was stopped when Abby walked slowly and morsefully from her station.
"Gibbs...it...its Tony."
"Damn!" Gibbs shouted his hands flying in the air before he turned around his back towards Abby. In his mind he kept saying, 'Don't you do it, don't you show them you care. You are a hardass and have to be seen as such. You don't care, that is all there is to it. You didn't care when you thought he was dead in that car, you don't care now. Damn it, but you do care you rat...'
But his thoughts were quickly removed by the sobs emmitting from Abby, she had also turned her body quaking. She knew that it was foolish for her to be taking it so hard, they didn't know if he was alive or dead. But she had a feeling that something just wasn't right. I mean, the other day he had walked out of the office with a box of things from his desk. He kept speaking as if he was to be leaving soon. It just was, hinky. To say the least.
"Abby, it's alright we will find him."
"But will you find him alive and safe Gibbs? Do you know anything about him any more?"
Gibbs sighed, it was true lately he believed he didn't know a thing about the agent that he cared for like a son. Though an estranged son, it was still there. He sighed and went to hold her, but she pulled away.
"No Gibbs, you can't hug me like I am a little girl and expect my worries to go away. I am not your daughter and he isn't your son. Gibbs, I have been here for to long not to know when an agent won't be coming back. And it is usually when something like this happens...so just...don't..." She ran out of the lab leaving the shattered and crushed senior agent standing with a tear streaming down his face. It was true, he had seen it too. But he wasn't giving hope up yet, damned if he was going to let someone kill DiNozzo other than himself.

Gibbs had made his way back to the office cubicle he called his own, but now he wished he hadn't. His hand still trembled holding the phone, the line was dead now but it didn't change what he had heard.
A phone call had come from DiNozzo's doctor, he had heard the news and was calling to alert Gibbs and NCIS of the health concern following their missing agent.
"Gibbs."
"Agent Gibbs, this is Doctor Marlow. I am Anthony DiNozzo's physician."
"Hello Doctor, is there something I can do for you?"
"Well yes, get my patient back."
"We are doing our best doctor."
"With all due respect sir, he needs to be found as quickly as possible."
"Yes we know..."
"No sir, you don't. He is suffering from congestive heart failure."
"..."
"Agent Gibbs?"
"I..I'm here, sorry about that Doctor."
"His health concerns make him a potentially dead agent sir. If he is not found soon, he could run out of medication."
"He is out...he was going to pick it up today."
"Then you best find him very soon."
"Goodbye Doctor..."
Gibbs' mind was still absorbing all that had just happened, the positive test of the DNA, the phone call from the doctor, and now this morbid feeling of guilt. He sighed his hands rose to his face as he tried to hide himself from what he was thinking.
"Gibbs, what is it?" A hand fell on his shoulder, he recognized the voice to be Kate's and lowered his hands the tear stained face appearing from beneath it.
"It's Tony...and Kate...it is serious." Her hand fell from his shoulders to her side, her dark eyes closing.
"Then you were right, he wouldn't have said something because he would rather be with family." She began to sob, her head falling to lay at her chest.
Gibbs pushed his chair back, rising slowly he moved to wipe the tears from her eyes. "Shh, its alright Caitlyn. He will be fine, we'll find him if its the last thing we do. And find him alive...I swear." He spoke soflty pulling her into his grasp, his hands around her back. His head was leaning against her's gently as he tried to comfort his agent.
Author's Note: I don't know if this is a Kibbs or a Tabby, it maybe something you never expected. I am just going by the seat of my pants at the moment. Hope you all are enjoying this, I am having a good time writing it. As for whether I am going to kill Tony, I don't know. Last time I had it all planned, this time I just started writing. So your guess is as good as mine.
