Tetra: Hi! Thanks for all the wonderful reviews! I loved them! So...I will continue. Now, remember, I don't own NCIS. Wish I did though. Anywho, ON WITH THE FIC!
Chapter 2
Gibb's reaction was a couple of minutes late before he realised what happened. He just stared blankly as McGee called the doctors and Ziva checked Tony's pulse and respiration. He watched as the paramedics put Tony on a stretcher and headed him to the infirmary, as Ziva followed, trying to find out what happened, as McGee lost it, and as Abby fainted. Gibbs couldn't move. The thought that not too long ago, he was arguing with the young man, about to fire him, and now...now he's in the hospital. He couldn't put right in his mind. And yet all that went through his head was: 'What happened?'
Abby came running to Gibbs with her usual 'Oh no! What if he dies' look and snapped him out of his daze. She was flailing about him asking questions; some that were obvious, and others that were too hard for him to explain.
"Gibbs! What happened? Is Tony going to be okay? What did the doctors say? Tony ain't going to die right? Of course not! He's strong enough to pull out of this! But what is it? Agggh! I hate this! Why won't those doctors say anything? Why won't you say anything? Gibbs?"
Abby stopped as she stared at Gibbs, who stared at her but said nothing. He gave her a clueless look (No! Not Gibbs! He's never this clueless!) which told her to shut up, in a nice way, and go away. Abby wasn't offended because she knew Gibbs wanted to know the exact same things. She walked off to interogate a doctor in the corner of the room. Gibbs looked around untill he spotted Ziva. As he walked to her, he could see that she was crying, whick was never a good sign.
"Ziva, what's going on? Is Tony okay?"
Ziva gave him a blank look as she smiled. "Yeah, he's going to be okay. They say he had a seizure! They don't know why though. I'm just scared. What could cause this? Another plague, probably not. Maybe a certain type of contagient in the air...OH NO! If that's it, then we could be infected too..."
Gibbs cut her off quickly. "It's probably stress and exhaustion. I had it once, about...18 or 19 years ago? Oh well, I can't remember. Anyway, Tony's should be fine. Now, we need to find this guy before he kills another person.
Ziva nodded and stalked off in the direction of her desk to find more information. She informed McGee to look too. As Gibbs watched them find more of the killer, he thought back to what Tony said earlier:
"I asked if you found anything of interest that you would like to share with us. Mostly because I was wondering what you were doing all this time. Not much I imagine."
Gibbs thought about it, about how true it was. He had no idea that Tony kept that in him so long. Of course, he had a few choice to tell Tony that he didn't. 'I guess Tony beat me to it.' He smirked a little as he walked to find Ducky and see Tony in person.
Tony was lying in a hospital bed with not much attatched to him. Gibbs frowned at that because when he had his seizure, he was attatched to more things than a computer is to cords. But his frown went away at how...peaceful, Tony looked as he lay there. As he looked at Tony, Ducky walked up behind him smiling.
"Why hello Jethro! I was about to call you."
Gibbs spun around faster that a ferris wheel at full speed. His heart racing at the sudden, new voice, and his voice was loud and frightened...just a little. "Ducky! Please, I told you don't sneak up on me. So...what's with Tony?"
Ducky gave his 'There's good news and there is bad news' smile. Gibbs hated it when people did that. They were so easy to predict.
"Well Jethro...Tony's going to be in perfect health. It was just a seizure due from exhaustion. (Huh, look at that! Gibbs was right, of course.) You know, It reminds me of a case back in...19...68! Yes that's it! Anyway...!"
"Ducky, not that your stories are totally fascinating, but please. Move on!" Gibbs returned his stare to Tony, who looked too peaceful for his liking. Something was wrong. Ducky poked his shoulder to get his attention back.
"Gibbs, I know that you know there's bad news. Now, you all said before Tony collapsed, that he had a blank expression on his face, right? Well, it could be that Tony didn't know what was happening."
"Duh, Ducky. Who would?"
"Please Jethro, it's rude to interupt. Now, I don't mean with just the situation he was, but with everything. I don't think he knew he was, we were, anything. I think the seizure caused him to forget...everything."
Gibbs looked at him in shock. Unable to say anything...what could he say.
"Now, I didn't tell Ziva or Abby because I knew Abby would have a breakdown and Ziva would try to shoot someone. But..."
"Ducky, are you telling me...you mean Tony can't remember...ANYTHING!"
Tetra: Yep, a cliffhanggy! This is another perfect ending, so I had to take it. But don't be mad. I will update quickly, but I would like some beautiful reviews. Press the button! Later ya'll!
