"Woah, ok then." Kate said when she saw the gun and magazines all packed into the building. It was a Ruger Mini-30. They got out the biggest evidence bag and put it in.
"You guys stay up here and keep looking we're going back down to give this to Gibbs." Tony said to Ziva and Jacob.
"Yeah sure, we'll see you down in a bit." Ziva said and Kate and Tony started heading back down the stairs.
"Boss we got what looks like murder weapon and its magazines." Tony explained.
It was about three hours later and they finally started to head back to NCIS to start the other end of the investigation. They were able to pull some white gravel off the roof and a partial footprint. All the evidence was sent down to Abby's temporary replacement. Kate and Tony went out all day interviewing people and asking them questions about Petty Officer Martin Smith but so far were blanc with suspects. After a long day out and about they headed back to the office to catch up with everyone else.
"Where's Gibbs?" Kate asked as she walked in.
"Coffee." Ziva replied still looking at her computer.
"Ok, well you guys got anything here?" Kate asked sitting down at her desk.
"No not really, this guy knows how to do his job, and does it well. So far no motive, no suspect." Jacob said.
"Gibbs isn't going to like that." Tony said sitting down at his own desk.
"What's that DiNozzo?" Gibbs made his entry perfect, as usual.
"Um boss, there is nothing unusual about the people we interviewed today. He was a happy person that loved the Navy and was good at it too." Tony said.
Gibbs gave Tony a look that said 'Why the hell are sitting around doing nothing?' Kate almost smiled. They continued to look through the Petty Officers files. Gibbs left, giving no indication to where. Jacob fell asleep, followed by Kate then Tony then Ziva. It had been a long day and tomorrow was going to be much of the same.
Kate woke up and took in her surroundings. She looked at her watch and it read 3:30 am. Everything in her body ached as she got up and stretched. Getting back to sleep was the last thing on her mind. Gibbs was still gone and everyone else was asleep. She started typing on her computer again and got Smiths Commanding Officers files and looked through them to see if he said anything about the unusual about them. She dug up everything she could find and then she found it. Deep in his personal notes he said that he did not like Petty Officer Smith and did not want him on the team. Kate read through everything else he said about Smith before walking over to were Tony was to wake him up. She quietly crept around the side of his desk.
"Tony." Nothing. "Tony!" Tony jumped up and grabbed Kate before pushing her back on the ground and landing on top of her.
"You hit?" Tony said looking around widely.
"No Tony, we're in the bullpen and its fine." Kate said and Tony looked down at her.
"O I see." Tony said grinning at her.
"You can get off me now." Kate said.
"Who says I want to?" Tony asked grinning at her again.
"I can't breath." Kate said though she could.
"Really?"
"You are a pest sometimes." Kate said looking into his eyes.
"One you love." Tony said and their lips met.
Kate pulled back after a while and smiled at Tony. "I think I have a lead on the case."
"Ok." Tony said getting up and pulling Kate with him. "Who?"
"His commanding officer didn't like him and wanted him off the team." Kate said and showed Tony all of the personal notes.
"Well I guess we'll tell Gibbs when he gets back." Tony said and he turned to face Kate.
"Yeah."
"You look tired, why don't you get some sleep?" Tony asked smiling at her.
"Yeah I guess so. What time is it?"
"4." Tony said. Tony then pulled Kate down onto the ground where Kate's pile of blankets lay and kissed her gently.
"See you in the morning." Tony said starting to get up.
"It is the morning." Kate said softly as Tony started to walk over to his desk.
