Tony sat at his desk and did his paperwork, he didn't want to go home even though Gibbs repeatedly told him to. He just wanted to go through the day, just like it was a normal day. But he couldn't help but thank the Lord that they didn't get any cases that day, he really didn't want to deal with that now. It was nearing five o'clock and Tony heard footsteps coming to his desk. He looked up to see Gibbs standing over him.

"Tony you're going home." He said in a monotone showing no emotion on his face what so ever.

Tony groaned and leaned back in his chair. "But, Boss, I don't wanna go home. There is no reason I have to go." He said placing his hands behind his head.

"DiNozzo, are you arguing with me?" Gibbs asked folding his arms.

"No."

"Then go home, I don't need to explain myself." Gibbs said and walked back over to his desk. Grabbing his coffee he sat down and Tony glared at him for a few seconds until he looked back up. "Do I need to walk you to your car?" he asked in a cocky voice.

"No, I'm fine." Tony said picking up his things. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Kate walking over as he picked up his bag. "Hey, what's up?" He asked as she stopped next to his desk.

"I'm going to drive you home." She said and Tony rolled his eyes.

"Oh, why?" he moaned.

"Because we all agreed you are in no condition to drive yourself home." She said.

"I am in perfect condition, I feel fine." Kate raised an eyebrow at him. "Okay so maybe I was out for few seconds," she shot him another look. "Minutes, fine I was out for a few hours or so what do you want from me?"

"To admit that you can't deal with this on your own," she said.

"I've been dealing with this for years and years and years. I never needed help controlling my temper or my feelings. I'm good at keeping my cool. As long as my emotions stay in check I'm fine and I really don't see myself blowing up on anything soon." Tony said in a low voice trying to stay completely calm.

"You can't bottle everything up forever and when you finally do blow someone could get hurt!" Kate said her voice rising a little bit; she was getting tired of Tony's attitude.

Tony had no response, he knew this was true. One day he would lose his temper, and he would hurt someone. He didn't want that, he's been having nightmares of that happening for years, ever since he first discovered his power. It haunted him. Mentally shaking his head he pushed those thought out of his head and slowly nodded in defeat.

"Okay then," Kate nodded and began to leave with Tony following. "Come on McGee."

"Wait what?" Tony asked looking confused.

"Someone has to take your car back." Kate said as though it were obvious.

Tony looked horrified at someone driving his car. McGee smiled and walked over to him. "Don't worry, Tony, I'll careful."

For the first time since he had seen McGee since this happened he looked normal. He looked as though nothing had ever happened at all; Tony couldn't help but smile at this.

"See that you do, Probie." He said.

The trio walked over to the elevator and went down to the garage. Gibbs watched them as they left, things weren't going to change, not at all.

Abby was in her lab drinking her caf-pow bobbing her head to some overly-loud music. She was dead bored. Wandering around she went to the live security cameras and decided to look around and see what's up. Clicking around them she paused and the straw fell out of her mouth and she stared with her mouth open at the screen she just pulled up.

"Oh, no…" She whispered and grabbed her cell phone speed dialing Gibb's number. After one ring he picked up and she didn't even allow him to say anything. "Gibbs, don't let them down to the garages!"

The elevator door dinged and opened they took about one step and were swarmed with paparazzi. All asking a thousand questions at once.

"Is it true that you're a mutant?"

"Are you going to continue to work with the NCIS?"

"Is it true you attacked your boss?"

"Will you continue to work with him now that you know what he really is?"

Tony immediately panicked, he started to back up only to realize the doors have already closed and he was stuck. He could feel his suppressed emotions begin to rise. His body temperature going up higher then it already was. Kate, being pinned up against him, felt his body heat increase. She tuned and looked at him with a worried face and saw his face in sheer terror. Glancing over to McGee she saw him try and take charge (to the best of his ability, he wasn't exactly the best at it), she knew she should help him since Tony seemed immobile but she also couldn't leave Tony in the state he was.

"Tony!" She yelled over the reporters. "Tony! Tony, look at me!" She grabbed the sides of his face and forced him to look down at her, Lord, his face was so hot it felt like he had a temperature of 120 degrees but she knew it was much higher then that.

Fearful eyes looked down at her and she stared into them. "Tony, please, calm down. Just breath, everything will be fine."

"I can't." He breathed barley audible, nothing was working he was losing control again, he shook his head saying he couldn't calm down he couldn't stop it. She felt the heat under her hands rise.

Her hands were burning under his skin, she tried not to let it show and just hold onto him but he caught the slight pain in her eyes. He reached up to get her hands off him with his but only succeeded in burning her wrists.

"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?"

Almost everyone went silent, they turned and saw Gibbs standing in the elevator door. He was mad, he looked around at all the reporters with pure hatred. "How the hell did you get in here and stop harassing my agent!" he yelled at them. "Get out!"

They hardly moved and one reporter even had the nerve to yell out 'freedom of the press'. Gibbs looked as if he was about to shot something when the door opened once again revealing Jenny and Abby, she must have gotten her when she saw that Gibbs didn't.

Jenny walked over and gave a hard glare to everyone. "Leave my building, now!" She said in a stern pissed off as anything voice. "You're not even allowed to be here in the first place, so get your asses out of here."

The group began to scatter and soon, after several more threats by various NCIS agents, they were all gone. Kate looked down at Tony, she had to let go, she didn't want to but she had to. Looking at him she felt a wave a sympathy wash over her, he was on the floor against the wall with his knees to his chest and holding his head in his hands. She kneeled down next to him and began to talk to him in a low voice trying to calm him down.

Gibbs looked at his agent, damn media, getting their nose into everything. They had no right. After a few seconds he looked up at Jenny who was also looking down at Tony with a crushed look on. "What are you doing down here?" he asked quietly so only they could hear.

"I'm not that mean, Jethro, Abby got me. DiNozzo is a good kid, he disserves all the people he can get standing up for him. And I'm not going to stand by and watch while people ridicule him." She said softly.

Gibbs nodded and said nothing more he looked back down to his shaken up agent. He noticed that Abby was now at Tony's side trying to calm him a long with Kate. He wanted to bend down pick up his agent put one of his arms around his shoulders and walk him to his own car to give him a ride home, but he couldn't touch him. No one could. The only way Tony was going to move is if Tony moved himself.

What seemed like hours later, but was really only a few minutes Tony shifted him position. He looked up at his co-workers and took in a shaky breath. "Sorry." He whispered.

Gibbs let out a breath and slapped him lightly on the back of the head; thank god his temperature was now decreasing. "Shut up." He said quietly. "Tony, I'm taking you home."

Tony nodded and stuffed his hands in his pockets, Gibbs led him over to his car and they both got in and drove off leaving the rest of the team behind. They remained silent and walked back up to the offices.

AN: Sorry this was so late but I am real busy. But at least I got it up right? And I'm also sorry for any OOC on Jenny's part but I have never written her. So sorry on that, I don't plan on giving her too many lines except maybe a few more talks with Gibbs but that's about it. Um, also I'll be leaving for vacation on Saturday so I'm like 95 percent sure there will be no more updates before I leave but the next chapter will be interesting, I have most of it already planned out so there is a small chance I'll get one more up but don't get your hopes up to high. Thank you for all the reviews and I'll see you next time!
