I thought of this as a story and my brain almost imploded! It's gonna take a lot of work but I'm prepared to take the risk with the holidays coming up soon. Evangel is a new forensics agent on a mission. A mission unknown to the rest of the gang.

My speciality, as you may have guessed, is adding new characters and then killing them off (well, most of the time I kill them off)

Lets have another little profile then, shall we?

Name: Evangel Joplin

Age: 28

Siblings: unknown

Position: NCIS forensics agent on transfer from South Miami

Specialties: Forensics, Combat, Weaponry and a little Computer Technics (she's basically a whole crew in one!)

Reason for transfer: unknown

Gibbs entered his familiar workplace environment and realised someone was sitting at his desk. he could only see the back of the chair swinging slightly as the person rocked from side to side on the balls of their feet.

He grabbed the chair and pulled it around to be greeted by a beautiful young woman. Gibbs thought she looked like someone he knew, then pushed it aside as the lady stuck her hand out. "Forensics Agent Evangel Joplin reporting for duty" she said formally and stood up.

Gibbs took her hand in his and shook it, "you must be the transfer. I'm Special Agent Gibbs, the leader of this mob" he said, referring to Agent McGee who was typing away madly on the computer, Agent David who was reading the morning paper and Agent DiNozzo, who was struggling to stay awake at this early time of the day.

"guys!" Gibbs yelled over the gradually rising amount of noise, "I'd like you to meet Agent Evangel Joplin!" the rest of the crew immediately stopped what they were doing and stared at the new arrival.

She gave a small wave and Agent David smiled warmly at her. Those girls have to stick together in a place like that. DiNozzo immediately stared at her large bust and toned legs. Evangel knew she's always get attention from him.

McGee gave her a small two fingered salute and returned to the computer. Evangel let herself be led to the forensics lab where she'd now be working. Gibbs informed her that the last forensics expert (Abby) was unfortunately dead and most of the crew were still suffering from a large amount of grief.

She was left in the rather large lab to get to know her surroundings. A man named Charles came out of the woodwork and introduced himself, also adding that he was referred to as 'Chip'.

McGee wandered in, "hey. Evangel isn't it?" Evangel nodded and continued to scan over the files written by Abby. "I've come to tell you about everyone that works here. Let's start with Agent David. She's Spanish and her English has improved but sometimes you just don't get what she's saying"

He pointed out the dark hair beauty and then continued to talk, "Anthony DiNozzo. What can you say about Tony… I know. He'll try to crack onto you in the next 48 hours, that's for sure. You need to be careful around Gibbs for the time being, he's broken up about Abby's death. She was like a daughter to him"

Gibbs was one of those timeless looking men. If you changed his hair colour then you wouldn't be able to distinguish if he was 25 or 60. He seemed to flow around the office with ease, laughing with colleagues and poking witty insults in DiNozzo's direction.

Evangel smiled at McGee, 'Thanks McGee. I know who to talk to if I find anything difficult in the next few days." She patted him on the shoulder, then pushed past to collect a piles of files on the tiled floor.

McGee exited the office and headed straight for Gibbs' desk. He wasn't only being friendly, the rest of the crew had voted him to go get a read on her mental status. 'she seems… nice." He reported and the rest of the mob gaped at him.

"nice? That's all you got?" DiNozzo said, "good work Probie. My turn" he swiftly moved around the edge of his desk and half ran into the lab. "hey" he said sweetly and flashed his million dollar smile.

Evangel looked up from yet another file and smiled in return, "morning Anthony" and DiNozzo flapped it away, "call me DiNozzo or Tony. How do you like the lab?" he sat on the edge of the desk and waited patiently for an answer.

She sat on one of the high stools opposite him and kicked off her stilettos, "it's certainly bigger than what I'm used to. My lab back in Miami was probably half the size of this one" she said and gestured to the large space.

DiNozzo stared out the window to where Gibbs was signalling madly at him. "excuse me, I'm being summoned by the 'Great Gibbsterish One'." He also exited the room and then sat at his desk.

"so?" Gibbs asked impatiently and Tony shrugged, "she's the complete opposite of Abby. So quiet and docile" he shuddered, "I want our Abby back!" Gibbs leant back in his chair and Ziva frowned at DiNozzo's comment, 'we can all learn to accept Evangel like we did Abby"

Evangel took an extended lunchbreak on her first day to call her dad and visit her sister's grave. After spending 20 minutes on the phone she jumped into her Lexus and sped off. Gibbs decided to follow her.

He knew it was completely against protocol but someone who takes an extended lunch on their first day is obviously troubled. He parked a few spaces away from her car as to avoid being seen. He noted the way she wobbled through the graveyard, almost as if she was drunk.

Then he came to the conclusion that her stilettos were sinking into the grass. She came to a stop next to Abby's grave. Gibbs stood a fair distance away and watched as Evangel collapsed to the ground in tears.

He edged neared slowly so he could hear what she was saying, "hey Abbs. I'm sorry I couldn't make it to the funeral but I'm here now. I was just on the phone to Daddy and he misses you too. I told him I'd come and visit once a week so here I am"

Her chest heaved and she continued, "I moved my stuff into your office today and had to stop myself crying about a million times. Your colleagues seem nice though. McGee offered to help out anytime but I'm not so sure about Tony"

"Gibbs seems truly broken up about you being gone. So much that he sent two of the gang in to interrogate me. He obviously thinks I didn't notice. Anyway, I just wanted to come and say hi and goodbye at the same time"

she heard a twig crack behind her and stood up quickly, twirling around at the same time. Gibbs stood there calmly with his hands in his pockets, "how do you know our Abby?" he asked softly. Evangel sniffed quietly, "she was my sister. Well, half sister but our parents never let us refer to each other that way"

Evangel picked her bag off of the ground, "I'd prefer if you didn't tell anyone about this' she made her way past Gibbs but her grabbed her wrist in a light but firm grip, "I think it's time we talked a bit about you and Abby" he stated and led her back to the grave.

A/N: there we are! First chapter is underway. Evangel is not a Mary Sue. You'll find out why in a few chapters time. send me a review after you've finished and let me know what you think. Please no flames…
