NCIS: Autopsy/Abby's Lab
Ziva got off the elevator and entered the autopsy. "Hello Ducky." She said somewhat cheerfully.
"Why hello Ziva! To what do I owe this pleasure?"
"May I ask you something?"
"Of course."
"How long have you known Agent Gibbs and Miss Shepard?"
"I've known Jethro for almost eighteen years. Jennifer I have known for fifteen years."
"How did you meet Miss Shepard?"
"I was the corner she worked with. She needed a second opinion about something."
"Ducky, she was asking you to confirm the fact the she was pregnant, wasn't she?"
"How did you know?" Ducky said in shock.
"I've meet Hannah. I was on protective detail in Cairo. Than meant Jennifer AND Hannah."
"When she came to me she was scared. I asked who the father was and she told me. When I told her I knew him she asked me not to tell him. I told her I wouldn't, I never did."
Ziva wasn't sure how to break the news to Ducky, so she decided to tell him straight out. "Hannah's been kidnapped."
"What?"
"She's Tel Aviv. Gibbs and Jennifer are on their way there as we speak. I'm going with them. I want you to come too. Will you?"
"Does Jethro know? About his daughter?"
"Yes."
"Of course I'll come, but why?"
"If anything happens to Hannah I want you there. And I'm sure Gibbs and Jennifer will too."
"Alright, how long do we have?"
"Our plane leaves at 10:00."
"We should tell the others. Expessialy if they are going to be left alone for any amount of time." Ducky said, think about the disaster that could follow.
"Why do I get the feeling that the idea of leaving them alone scares you?"
"Because it does."
"Hey Duck-man, what's happenin'?" Abby said as she bounced into autopsy.
"Hello Abigail, how are you?"
"Bored."
"Ducky, I've got to go." Ziva said.
"10:00, correct?"
"Yes." Ziva walked out of autopsy, with Abby glaring at her back.
"What was Ziva talking about Ducky?"
"How do you think Anthony and Timothy would fair without Jethro and Ziva for a week?"
"Bad. Very bad, Very, very bad. Why?"
"Jethro and Jennifer are going to Tel Aviv for a week. Ziva and I are joining them,"
"Why are Gibbs and the new director going to Tel Aviv?"
"Jennifer's daughter was kidnapped. She and Jethro are going to find her and taking Ziva because they need her help. Ziva wants me to come because she is worried about the child's condition."
"I still don't understand why Gibbs is going. And who is the kid's father?"
"That's why Jethro is going, he is the father."
"Ohhh." Abby said, finally understanding what Ducky was saying. "Do Tony and McGee know?"
"No, and it needs to stay that way. Just explain to them that they will be on their own this week. Tell them that Jethro, Jennifer and Ziva are on a case and that I am at a conference."
"Will do!"
"Thank you Abigail. Now I have to go. I will see you next week. Goodbye."
"Bye!" Abby said quite bubbly. She was really excited about this next week. Already she was making predictions about what Tony and McGee would do to each other. She was concerned about Gibbs' daughter but knew that he would handle it.
"Oh . . . and Abigail."
"Ya?"
"Please make sure Anthony and Timothy don't kill each other."
"Don't worry Ducky, I will."
"Alright. Goodbye." Ducky said, somewhat hesitantly.
"Bye." She stood in autopsy for a few minutes, her thoughts started racing. When had Gibbs and the new director been together? Was she one of his ex-wives? Were they married now? How long had Gibbs known he had a daughter? Shrugging her shoulders she walked into her lab. There she found McGee.
"Hey Abs."
"How ya doing McGee?"
"Great. Do you know why Ducky was leaving?"
"Oh ya. He was . . . " She was cut off by Tony who walked into her lab at that moment.
"Hey guys. Anyone know why Ducky is leaving?"
"He's going to a conference. He wanted to let you two know that Gibbs and the new director lady are on a case with Ziva. You two are on your own this week."
McGee seemed satisfied with Abby's answer, Tony on the other hand, wasn't. "Why the hell did they take Ziva! I am the senior field agent!"
"I think the director likes Ziva more Tony." McGee said, earning him a smack on the head.
"Hey," Abby said in a warning tone, "only Gibbs gets to whack people on the head."
"Since when are you my mother?"
"Since I told Ducky I'd keep you two from killing each other. Now, say you're sorry."
"Sorry McGee."
"It's okay Tony."
"Good. Now get out of my lab. I have tests to run."
