I hope it isn't too hard on you guys with me updating so often. Maybe you feel it is too much to read since I know you probably don't have time to go to ff so often. I'm just impatient and want to write it as fast as I can. If I had a portable computer this story would probably have been finished already but I guess it is a good thing that I don't have one. It's on my spare time I come up with ideas.

………..Around 3 am outside Boston…………..

Tony and the man had gone to a bar. He wanted to drink before they entered the city. Tony still didn't know what was going on. He had asked but was told to shut up. The man appeared edgy and after all these hours Tony still didn't know his name. The tension was getting higher between them and Tony feared what would happen in New York. Since he was driving he only drank water but the other guy wanted to drink heavier things. If he had a major role in what would happen in Boston he wouldn't drink Tony thought. The other man then demanded that Tony gave him his phone. Tony felt he had to do it. It was his only way to contact somebody and he was mad about having it taken away. Blunt had told them about him having a microphone on him so it had been taken away from him before they left New York. As much as he wanted to trust an FBI agent he couldn't. The other man they walked away from Tony, to go and call someone from his cell phone. Tony then saw his chance in doing something. Someone was already talking on the pay phone so he couldn't do that. He then asked the bartender for a piece of paper and pen. He got them and started to think about what to write. Just as he was about to write something down the other man came back. Tony quickly shoved the paper and pen to the guy next to him so it looked like it belonged to him. The guy started to talk about a shop near a railway station and how it would blow everyone away. Tony wondered how stupid he was but Tony guessed he now felt comfortable around him. The phone call had changed something.

"Who were you talking to?" Tony asked him.

"The boss. Blunt has double crossed them and if you will do the same you will suffer the same consequences he did." The guy told him. Tony knew that he had to do something to stop everything that would happen. He tried to pump out some more information from him while trying to figure out how he would tell the police. The guy drank some more and told Tony a little bit about the plans for New York. Suddenly the guy went to the other end of the room to make another phone call. Tony then saw his chance. He quickly wrote something down and gave it to the drunken man beside him while giving him some money. Tony told him what to do and hoped he wasn't as drunk as he appeared. A few seconds later the other guy was back. He said he and Tony had to go now. Tony quickly slipped his hand in the other guy's pocket to get his cell phone back. Tony then said he just tripped so he wouldn't notice the phone was gone. When they stepped outside the bar two men came up to Tony. They led him to another car. Tony felt this was all planned. He had done his part and was now getting killed. He ran back to the bar to make a phone call. The other men got surprised and it took a little while before they found Tony who was in the men's bathroom. He was talking to someone on the phone. The three men overpowered him and dragged him out of the room.

…………Tuesday the 2nd of December 6.05 am in New York………..

The team was at the FBI headquarters. Kate did finally open the bathroom door to talk to Tony. She quickly closed and locked it as soon as she had got the phone. They spoke for a few minutes before Tony had to go because he couldn't speak for a long time in fear of the other guy waking up. During their talk Kate left the bathroom and wrote down a few things on a notepad before heading back to the bathroom. It was clear to Gibbs and Abby she didn't want them to find out what they were talking about. When Kate had found some strength after the phone call ended she went out to talk to Gibbs and Abby. Tony had told her about the license plate of the car and how it looked like. He had told her about where he was headed and everything else he knew which wasn't a lot. After they had been informed Gibbs decided they had to go the FBI and get the police to find the car. They had been there for four hours but no police had seen the car. They had tried to see if they could pinpoint his location by where his cell phone was linking up to a cell phone station but it seemed Tony had turned off his phone. They got worried but not so worried. Tony had survived so far so why wouldn't he be alive now. Then the shocking news came.

………….A few minutes later……..

"We found the car and only one person was in it. No body was found in it and it seemed clean. No signs of struggle or blood. The person in it was not Agent Dinozzo. The arrested man refuses to say a thing. He had your agent's cell phone on him but it was shut off. Everyone in Boston is trying to find out if a bomb will go off there today so not many are trying to find agent Dinozzo. We'll do our best but we don't have a lot of time on our hands." An FBI agent told them as soon as he entered the room.

"Let us question him." Gibbs told him.

"I have to clear it with some people higher up but I don't think they will allow you. Some FBI agents are already on their way to Boston." The FBI agent continued.

"So we're the last to know?" Kate asked him.

"Yes. I have my orders and I have to follow them." The FBI agent answered.

"Tell them I don't like your orders." Kate said angry with her arms crossed. She was tired after being up all night. Gibbs wanted to go to Boston but with no car and not enough money to take everyone there he knew he couldn't if FBI didn't pay for it. If he had been at home he knew he could have done so much more. Gibbs hated not being at NCIS right now.

……….10.15 am………..

Time had gone so slowly and no new news had come. The guy in Boston still refused to talk. Blunt couldn't be found and Tony was missing. Giving the network's track listing everyone thought both were dead but no one said it out loud. Giving up was too easy and it was too early to do that.

"We should get something to eat." Abby told them.

"We ate two hours ago. I'm not hungry." Kate replied.

"I am…I feel so useless. They let us sit here and do nothing. I hate it. The hotel seems like a better place. It at least has a bed." McGee told them. He didn't like FBI now.

"I think you're on to something. Let's go back to the hotel." Gibbs told them. Everyone looked at him. They didn't thought he would suggest that.

"Yeah, well I think we need some rest in case they do find out something. Maybe we'll hear something from Tony and solve this case by our own. The FBI isn't making much progress." Gibbs concluded.

"How come you're so calm?" Kate asked him.

"He told you he didn't do it. If he could get out of that kind of tough situation then he can get out of this." Gibbs quickly answered. He was referring to the picture he had. It was still in his pocket.

…………….

Kate thought about what Tony told her while they talked. Tony had sworn to Kate he hadn't killed that man but didn't want to tell Kate what really happen. He said she shouldn't hear such things especially from him. Kate didn't want to argue with him and just let him talk. She didn't talk so much during their conversation. Still she wondered if Tony had only told her what he thought she wanted to hear. Maybe he did do it but didn't want to admit it. Sinking so low was hard and admitting and accepting it was harder. The team had talked a lot about it the last few hours and even if they truly wanted him to be innocent the evidence talked against him.

…………An hour later……..

"A bomb has gone of in a toy store. We don't have much info but that's what we have. Also a bomb was found in Boston. Apparently someone called the police in Boston around 3 am telling them where it was. Before he could say something else the phone call ended it. The dispatcher heard something sounding like a struggle. Some music was playing in the background like from a bar so no one knew if it should be taken seriously but they did. They are sending the call to us to see if you can recognise the voice. It'll take a few minutes so come to my room. It'll be on the computer." A FBI agent told them.

"Finally something. If it isn't Tony then we'll head back to the hotel. If it is then we'll decide what to do next." Gibbs ordered.

………

The man who called in sounded just like Tony. The team now got a lot more worried especially since the reports from the bombing kept getting updated. A few more bombs had gone off at the same time and people had died but since people were warned not as many died as intended.

………4. 45 pm the same day…………

Everyone had been back at the hotel for a few hours now. They still hadn't found Tony and Blunt was gone too. The hours seemed to get longer and longer. Kate had a difficult time accepting the situation but she did her best. Staring up at the ceiling and doing nothing wasn't helping. If she did something useful then she wouldn't feel so worse.

Then the stationary phone in the hotel room rang. She picked it up and it was someone in the reception who wanted to say she had got a message 14 hours ago. A guy said he had got paid by someone to call the hotel and leave a message to miss Todd. The message was that I'm ok and find the row road.

Kate didn't understand the last part of it but decided to go to the lobby with everyone to see if they could make sense of it. To her it was clear somebody had been looking at Tony so he couldn't call himself and that he couldn't tell an unknown person about bombs and such. When they got to the reception they read the note. Kate then asked why it hadn't been sent to her earlier but the answer was she hadn't been at her hotel room and giving messages to the guests wasn't high on their priority list when they had a lot more to do. They also managed to call the one who worked during the night to ask if he remembered anything about the call. All he said was that the man sounded drunk and he had to repeat himself several times before he said the whole sentence. He also remembered the person talking about four men in hurry and one of them being very mad at the other one because of a phone call.

Everyone got worried. Had the man in custody in Boston done something to Tony because of his call to the police?

………..Thursday the 4th of December……….

"Kate. It's time." Abby told her. They were going home. Blunt and Tony hadn't been found. They had done everything they could to find them and FBI said they had done it too. No one understood what the row road meant so Tony's last message didn't help them in the search. Blunt's family had given up and Tony's family didn't want to do it but understood that the likelihood of him being alive was very slim. Kate had a really hard time facing it. Now she had to go home and pack up her life with Tony.

"I'm coming." Kate told her.
