With no hesitation, Gibbs shot the lock on the last remaining locked door - the one that separated him, hopefully, from McGee and Tony. He lifted up his leg and slammed all his body weight into the kick. The door swung open, splinters and metal flying into the air. Gibbs stepped into the garage and was quickly greeted by two surprised faces. McGee and Rick stood with their guns aimed at Gibbs. When both parties realised it was safe, their weapons dropped to their sides.

"You okay?" Gibbs asked immediately. McGee nodded. "Where's Tony?"

"You mean he's not with you?" McGee questioned. He had thought that Tony would try and find his way back to the squad room where there would be helped.

"Would I be asking if I knew where he was?" Gibbs shouted, his impatience and worry starting to show. Tony was the only team member he had yet to find.

"Well, he went up to the cells to get Harker, maybe he's-"

"I've checked there already McGee! He's not there."

"So he's somewhere between the cells and here?" Rick joined in.

Suddenly a switch in Gibbs' brain went on. He slowly turned around to come face to face with two grey sliding doors. "He's in the elevator," he spoke to himself.

"What was that boss?"

"He's in the goddamn elevator!" he shouted. He slammed his palm against the metal doors in anger.

"He can't be!" McGee spoke in disbelief. There was no way Tony was trapped in an elevator with a murderer.

"McGee, find something to pry these doors apart!" Gibbs spoke, his orders becoming more urgent by the second. Who knows what was happening in that elevator. Harker could have overpowered Tony already and was just waiting for the power to come back on to shoot his way out with Tony's gun. McGee began rummaging through the shelves for something, the little light available making it harder to see what he was looking for. "Hurry, McGee!" A second later McGee pulled something off the shelf.

"Found something." He held up the crowbar like it was the Olympic torch.

"Just get it over here, McGee." McGee passed it to Gibbs who slammed one end of the crow bar into the slot between the doors. With help from McGee and Rick, the doors finally slid open. Gibbs threw the crowbar to the ground with a clatter and instantly peered over the edge into the darkness. Looking down all he could see was black. He twisted and peered up to where the elevator car should be. "I can't see anything!"

"The torch ran out of batteries," McGee told Gibbs.

"Wait!" Rick called out. Gibbs and McGee turned to look at him. Rick unclipped his gun from his vest and handed it to Gibbs. He pulled out something from a vest pocket and handed that over too. "Infrared laser sight," he explained. "For those bad situations in the dark." Gibbs expertly clipped the laser sight onto the weapon and peered through it.

"Is he down there?" McGee asked nervously. Yes, Tony teased him incessantly but that didn't mean McGee didn't care if his friend was in trouble.

"There's definitely an elevator car stuck down the shaft but anyone could be in there. Hell, it could be empty for all we know!" Gibbs shouted into the shaft. "Tony!" The call echoed down the dark drop but no answer was shouted back. Either Tony couldn't hear Gibbs or Tony wasn't conscious to hear it. Gibbs turned back to McGee.

"We need to get down there."

"Boss, it's too dangerous!"

Gibbs replied with a glare. "There is no way I am leaving Tony down there."

"We would need torches, climbing gear, rope," McGee listed, hoping to dissuade his boss from doing anything drastic.

"Well, get some then!"

"It's all in the truck, Boss, and the truck's locked up outside."

"Damn it, McGee!" Gibbs shouted at the young agent.

"I'm sorry, Boss," McGee replied nervously. "There's nothing we can do until the power comes back on."

Gibbs sighed. "Get Fornell on the phone and tell him to hurry his ass up!"

McGee nodded and Rick instantly handed over the only working phone.
