A Five lettered word for Surprise…
A/N: Okay, I haven't written in ages and I feel really, really, really bad. Hangs head in shame I've got some good excuses: school, uni and work interfere with my fanficion time. How dare they!
All thanks go to kap0w for updating, and I can't be out-updated by kap0w…Giant thanks to my readers, you guys are truly amazing. Enjoy.
Kate had no idea what sort of reception was waiting for her back at headquarters. It was the only thing she thought about on the trip home. Other than what crappy taste the two teenagers had in music. Talk about emo music. Sheesh.
As she made the long journey down to Abby's lab, her mind wandered back to events of the last two hours. She felt a mixture of nervousness and excitement. Kate also felt disappointed. Disappointed in their reactions and slightly disappointed that they'd replaced her already. Kate refused to dwell on it. She just wanted to see Abby.
Kate was met with blaring music as she entered the lab, and much to her dismay, she recognised the song as one that the girls had played in the car. Abby was clicking away on her computer. Kate cleared her throat.
"Hi Abs," Kate said loudly over the music.
Abby switched off the music and turned around. Shocked at what she saw, she fainted.
"Abby?" Kate said softly, kneeling beside her unconscious friend.
Abby blinked a few times and sat up. She pinched Kate.
"Oww! What was that for?" Kate rubbed her arm.
"Just making sure I wasn't dreaming," Abby said softly, "I always dreamt of this happening. I just didn't think it wouldn't end with me waking up"
"This isn't a dream, Abs," Kate whispered, standing.
Abby snickered.
"Arwen called, she want her dress back."
Kate reached out her hand, pulling Abby to her feet.
"Very funny," She said sarcastically, "but at least your reaction is better than everyone else's."
"What, you mean they weren't happy to see you?" Abby asked, shocked.
"More like, 'shocked, disbelieving, wary and cold'," Kate replied.
"I'm sure they're just shocked, I bet they're happy as well," Abby said supportively "Anyway, you look good! Resurrection really works for you!"
"Thanks," Kate answered "but how did you know it was resurrection
"I read some spoilers on the net," Abby answered simply, "but I didn't think the 'Powers That Be' would actually do it."
"I had some of the most powerful on my side." Kate smiled.
Abby turned her attention to CSIMel and kap0w.
"What's with the Olsens?" she asked.
"The names CSIMel and kap0w," CSIMel introduced, shaking Abby's hand.
"Huge fans," kap0w added.
"Um, do you mind…" CSIMel held out a 'TV Week' for her to sign.
"Sure," Abby said, signing the magazine.
CSIMel pulled out her camera and snapped a picture. Abby, confused handed her back the magazine.
"Imagine what we'll get for that on Ebay!" CSIMel said excitedly.
"Imagine all the coke we can buy!" kap0w answered.
They high-fived.
"Okay…" Abby turned her attention back to Kate, dragging her into a secluded corner.
"Where'd you find them?" Abby muttered, looking back at the two girls, who were drinking cans of coke.
"They helped with the resurrection," Kate replied "they're documenting my return."
"Right-o," Abby said, "Have you met Ziva?"
Kate nodded.
"I always knew they'd have to replace me," Kate said softly, "I just never thought they'd do it so soon."
"I'm pretty sure there's something going on between her and Tony," Abby muttered, a disgusted look on her face.
"I figured," Kate said, "B1 and B2 mentioned something like that."
"I'm sorry," Abby said softly
"Why?" Kate asked, "We're talking about Tony here and if the new girl doesn't know better, that's her own fault. I don't see why it should bother me."
But strangely enough, it did bother her.
"What the?" Abby turned around to see CSIMel and kap0w listening and scribbling frantically.
"Let me read that," Kate snatched the book from CSIMel.
But strangely enough, it did bother her.
"I didn't say that!" Kate said indignantly.
"But you were thinking it!" CSIMel protested.
"No, I wasn't!" Kate snapped, "Now retract that statement!"
"Okay, okay," CSIMel replied sighing and scribbling furiously.
But they were right. As much as she didn't want to admit it, Kate did care.
"This is the last time I'll tell you!" Kate cried.
"Sheese…" kap0w muttered.
"Come on!" CSIMel whined, "I need some Tate to keep the readers interested. No Tate equals no reviews."
"Fine, find," Kate rolled her eyes.
"Hang on," Abby interrupted, "what's a 'Tate'?"
"May I?" kap0w asked CSIMel.
CSIMel nodded.
"Where we come from, fanfictiondotnet, there is a certain thing called 'shippings', or pairings," kap0w explained slowly, "We write mainly Tate – Tony and Kate or McAbby – McGee and Abby."
"Eww!" Both Abby and Kate said at the same time.
"There are also other pairings…should we tell them?" kap0w asked CSIMel.
"Do you think they can handle it?" CSIMel studied the pair critically.
"Tell us," Abby demanded.
"Okay," kap0w said, "other pairing are Kibbs – Kate and Gibbs, GAbby – Gibbs and Abby and the most recent, Zony – Ziva and Tony."
"Double eww!" Kate and Abby cried.
"Must.Erase.Images." Abby hyperventilated, holding her head in her hands.
"Why did you tell us this?" Kate asked angrily.
"You wanted to know!" CSIMel answered indignantly.
"Gosh! Idiot!" kap0w sighed.
"If you promise not to share anything else about this fanfiction place, I'll let you put in one of those 'fake thought' things in. Deal?" Kate asked.
"Deal." CSIMel agreed.
"Good thing we didn't tell them about 'slash'," kap0w giggled.
"SHUT UP!" Kate and Abby cried.

Please review. Reviews create endorphins. Endorphins make people happy. Being happy makes me study hard. Studying make me pass. Passing makes me have to work less. Working less allows me to update more. Updating more means you get more ToF.
