Here's the 5th story in my series. If you haven't read the other stories, then I advise you to not proceed until you do. This is a series. It runs in sequence. To understand certain things (especially where Jamie came from), it's best to just start at the beginning. This series is kind of like my very own NCIS season 4. As of this point, the series consists of: story 1 A Link to the Past (comes in 3 parts)… story 2 Wrong Place, Wrong Time…. story 3 Second Job… story 4 Daughters… story 5 A Personal Vendetta (current story). Hope you enjoy it. NOTE: The series is now up-to-date on this website, so story updates won't come so quickly anymore.

Monday

Chapter 1

Early Monday morning, in an old abandoned house somewhere along the Potomac River, a man has been working all night long. The house is boarded-up and unclean. A battery powered light is what illuminates a small area in the back of the house that the man needed in order to work on his project. On the wall, there are a couple photographs of three people. Three of the photographs have been blown-up to a larger size. The photographs of Jethro and Jamie Gibbs, and also Anthony DiNozzo just hang there on the wall. The man, who is sitting on a stool in front of the table, looks at the photographs.

"You'll pay for what you did Gibbs…"

The man stands up and walks over to the photographs. He leans against the wall right next to Jethro's photo. He looks into the eyes of the photo.

"Don't think your actions will go unpunished."

The man walks to the right in order to view the photo of Jamie. He leans against the wall near Jamie's photo. He gently glides his fingers across the picture of Jamie.

"Such a beautiful daughter you have Gibbs…"

The man looks back at Jethro's photo.

"It's a shame you'll have to loose her. But don't worry Gibbs… You'll join her in death."

The man walks back over to the table where the light is. Once at the table, he grabs a knife, quickly turns around and throws the knife. The knife lands in the head of Jethro's photo. He grabs another knife and throws it in the head of Jamie's photo. The man smiles evilly.

"You're time will come… Both of you."

The man sits on the stool. He continues working on his project. He fastens a couple wires to complete a bomb.

"The final bomb is set… Let's see if it works."

The man grabs a radio detonator. He pushes the button in order to arm the bomb. The little red light doesn't turn on. He looks at the detonator.

"Haha… Silly of me, eh Jethro. I forgot to attach a wire."

The man attaches a wire in the detonator. Then he pushes the button in order to arm the bomb. The little red light goes on. He looks at the photo of Jethro.

"What do you know, Gibbs… It works."

The man pushes the button once more. The little red light goes off.

"But you know what Gibbs… The next time this button is pushed. There will be no way to turn it off… Well, one could try pushing the button again, but I wouldn't recommend doing so. Cuz that would mean… Boom!"

The man continues working on the detonator for a couple more minutes. He makes a few minor adjustments to the detonator. He then makes a few minor adjustments to the actual bomb itself.

"There… Now if the button is pushed, it will arm the bomb. And if the button is pushed a second time… It's all over." The man said. "But that's not gonna be the only way this bomb is detonated. I got a little surprise in store for this fantastic device Gibbs."

The man gets up and walks over to the photographs again. He pulls the knife out of Jethro's photo.

"However this goes down… Just know… Your daughter will die."

There's a pause of silence before the man looks at Tony's photo.

"As for you you… You're just gonna watch the two of them die."

The man walks back over to the table. He turns around and throws the knife at Jamie's photo. The knife lands in the head of Jamie's photo, so now there are two knives sticking out of her picture. The man sits down and continues working on his device. He makes a few minor additions and puts the entire thing together. The man smiles evilly because he's now ready to do what he wants to do.
