SHIELD and NCIS United c13

AN: Here is the next chapter, I hope you enjoy. I do not own any NCIS characters or agents of SHIELD. Until next time.

Gibbs returned to NCIS with McGee and their two assailants. The man that shot at them and Petty Officer Michael Foster. He had an agent take them to an interview room as he made his way to the ballpein he was surprised to see Tony there alone. He looked around but didn't see Ziva.

"Where's Ziva?" McGee asked moving to his desk.

"She's down with Abbey. Are you guys alright? Where's Bishop?"

"She went with her sister." Gibbs said leaving the two and heading up to see the director. As he left he heard McGee talking about what happened. Tony watched Gibbs leave and turned his attention to McGee he sighed before starting at the beginning. Tony had to make him skip the science stuff but Tony noted how in awe McGee spoke, but then his expression turned grim as he recounted the ambush and how one of the SHIELD agents died and that Ellie's sister was hurt. When he had finished he asked for an update on Ziva asking if she was back for good. And Tony sighed.

"I don't know man, do you think I will be a good dad?" he asked in total seriousness.

"Are you kidding I think you will make a great one. You and Ziva just click and your girl…"

"Tali."

"She is adorable."

"Yes." And McGee saw Tony smile as he thought about his little girl.

"What is Ziva doing now?"

"Spending time with Abbey. When you called and told me what was happening…I jumped right into helping you."

"Yes thanks for that."

"Anytime probie."

"Hey." McGee stated but his phone rang so he had to pick it up. Gibbs returned putt his gun and badge into his draw then making his way to the interrogation room. McGee followed as Tony made his way to Abbey's lab.

20 minutes later Gibbs came out of the interrogation room convinced they did not have the killer. He got the Petty Officer to talk but the man that was in his apartment said nothing, Gibbs came to the conclusion that the man in the apartment was sent to kill the Petty Officer and that was how he got him to talk if they could protect him. He sat on his desk and picked up his phone thinking if he should call agent Morse but then he remembered he never got their number. He thought of Ellie and wanted to know about her sister so instead called her.

"Gibbs?" she answered

"Bishop how is your sister?"

"She's awake, that's good but she' been put on bed rest much to her displeasure. Few broken ribs and a punctured lung. She says she will be fine." Ellie replied "How did the interrogation go?"

"I got him to talk."

"Good, I'm on my way back now."

"You don't have to." Gibbs started to say

"No, I got my answers plus I still have a job to do in fact Sam insisted I come back. I also have something for Abbey to run."

"Ok I will see you when you get back." Gibbs stated before looking over at McGee.

"What?"

"Sir, there is an Agent Coulson wanting to talk to you." McGee replied and Gibbs sighed, Coulson was the man he met with Bishop's sister, he nodded his head and McGee affirmed it down the line. 30seconds later the elevator door opened and out came Coulson in a suite with the Asian agent what was her name, May yes that was it. Gibbs nodded to himself and went over to meet them waving off the agent that escorted them up. Coulson went over Gibbs and debriefed him on what they found then the two walked off talking. Agent May hung back leaving the talking to Coulson and Gibbs but looked around the room. McGee was watching her and couldn't read any emotions from her what so ever. He even felt slightly intimidated by her. He kept her in his line of sight but had to return to his work seeming that they were at square one once again. When McGee looked back up he noticed the other SHIELD agent was gone and freaked out looking around for her, he saw Gibbs and this agent Coulson off to one side in a heated conversation. He turned back to his desk after stepping around it planning on going to Gibbs but thought better of it…and practically jumped out of his skin, the second agent was standing next to him desk waiting patiently for him.

"Damn you gave me a fright." And his response was a raised eyebrow in a questioning manner one he has only seen too many times from Gibbs. Damn he thought to himself again. "Can I help you with something?" He asked getting his heart rate back down to normal.

"Skye." She said in a no bullshit tone.

"What?" he asked confused and slightly freaked out by this woman how did she get there without him seeing her?

"Skye where is she?" May asked in an irritated tone and McGee knew it was irritation.

"She's down with our forensic analyst." He replied and when she continued looking at him he hesitatingly continued. "I can take you down to her?" he asked and his only reply was a small barely noticeable nod.

When McGee arrived down at the lab laughter rang out into the hall, he look at the SHIELD agent May and still he couldn't read anything from her. When he entered the room he found Abbey standing next to Ziva and Tony talking it was Abbey that was laughing along with Ziva, Tony was shaking his head. When they noticed they had company Abbey made her way over to them while it seemed that Ziva stood there on edge.

"This is agent May SHIELD where is Skye?" McGee asked. Abbey waved a small greeting McGee wasn't surprised this didn't initiate any reaction from this agent, Abbe shrugged her shoulders and led them into the other room where Skye was sitting at her desk she looked up when they entered.

"May." Skye smiled in greeting to McGee's surprise this got a reaction from her.

"Skye what have you found?"

"You were right." She replied and this got a small twitch of the lips, especially when Skye shock her head in wonder at her.

"So he hasn't left?"

"No. like I said you were right. But why would he still be here I mean we have it now there is no way he can get it right?"

"He must think he can." Gibbs said entering the lab with Coulson right behind them. The room fell into an uncomfortable silence it was May's phone that broke it, Gibbs glared at her to which she held a firm expression she purposefully answered it.

"Bobbie…Yes…no…yes…ok." May said hanging up she turned to look at those in the room all looking at her expectantly but she didn't sway under any of them. She just put her phone away and returned to her stance beside Coulson.

"What is the plan? Do we have proof he killed these people?" Skye asked breaking the silence.

"We have the Petty Officer's statement but it won't be enough, the description is too general. No evidence here is tying to him is it?" Gibbs asked looking to Abbey but she was shaking her head.

"I'm good Gibbs but even I can't get evidence that is not there."

"So like I said before what is the plan?" Skye asked looking at Coulson when she spoke.

"We will be returning to the Bus." May said grabbing everyone's attention.

"What? Why?" Skye asked along with Abbey.

"Orders." She simply said, but Coulson knew her better than that.

"You have a lead?"

"One not here." May replied

"That's what Bobbie said on the phone?"

"No. that was something else."

"What did she say?" Coulson asked even though he knew she was annoyed at him and it was slowly turning to anger he could see it in her eyes, but still he pushed her for answers.

"Agent Morse asked for help on an assignment. I said yes." May said in a 'that's final' tone one Coulson would accept and move on. Gibbs was looking at them, internally berating himself as he knew these agents wouldn't stick around they have what they want why would they help them catch a killer.

"But..." Skye started but one look from May had her closing her mouth Coulson she could argue with she could get him to see her reason May, she was a no-non-since kind of person. Instead Skye returned to her computer. To let the 'grown ups' talk it out and they did. Skye was only kicking herself for not bringing her earbuds. She looked over to Abbey who had retreated into the lab area with Tim she noted that the other agent and kid wasn't in here at all they must have left when Coulson came in. They met her gaze and she offered them a small smile, she would love to stay and help them with this case but it looked like they were leaving. When May gave her the nod she knew what that meant so she started packing up her gear.

When they were leaving the NCIS building Skye saw Sam's sister walking into the building and a SHIELD SUV was leaving. Skye kept quiet on the ride back and when they pulled up on the base May left them and disappeared leaving Skye with Coulson.

"Why couldn't I stay and help them with the case?" Skye asked

"We have orders Skye. That is what we do, we follow them. Don't you think I wanted to stay and help them? We still have agents working from this end." Coulson reassured her causing Skye to look at him.

Back at the Navy Yard Ellie made her way into the ballpein, Gibbs was there with McGee and DiNozzo with Ziva and the little girl. They were talking amongst themselves she put her gear away and the thump made them look up.

"How's your sister?" McGee asked.

"She'll live. Was that Skye I saw walking out?" Ellie asked Gibbs walked over to her and watched her silently, Ellie looked down then back up at him. "What can I say Gibbs, it was scary seeing her like that. I had a long talk with her and a few points were made, it made her uncomfortable but now I can say we're even. I sat with her for a while but then Bobbie came back and I kind of felt like a third wheel and I knew I needed to get back, to solve this case. Sam is in good hands, besides she practically ordered me back here. I don't know how I feel about that?" Ellie stated taking a breath looking back him she saw both Tim and Tony smiling at her little rant.

"Looks to me you knew exactly what to say." Gibbs said moving back to his desk.

"Yes that was Skye leaving when you walked in. SHIELD is pulling back." Tim filled her in making her look at him sharply.

"Pulling back? But Bobbie said…" Ellie thought back to before she had left she was talking with both Bobbie and Maria, (Maria being the one who organized a ride back to the Navy Yard) they had said they would help them catch the killer before she had left seeming that Sam had told them she had promised her. All the agents were looking at her now, causing her back to their current position.

"Bobbie said?" Tony prompted

"That they'd help catch the killer is all." Ellie said looking at her desk fiddling with some paperwork on it.

"Yeah well SHIELD got what they wanted why would they stay and help us. Besides we don't need their help." Tim stated as he continued to type he pulled things up on the screen a picture of an Asian man in a suit talking on the phone.

"I don't believe that." Ellie stated almost to herself but Gibbs heard her.

"Boss do you need me?" Tony asked looking at him then Ziva.

"No, go take the night." Gibbs said

"Once this case is closed we will have a proper dinner." Tim called out as the new couple left to return to Tony's apartment. Gibbs moved over to Ellie next who made herself comfy on her chair she looked up at him.

"Go." He told her

"Go where?"

"Home, for tonight get some rest and we'll start back in the morning."

"Gibbs…" Ellie began but the look in his eyes made her stop and sigh. She nodded her head, finding out about her sister has been emotional. "I will see you bright and early." She replied looking at them both than leaving once reclaiming her gear. Gibbs turned to McGee and saw his expression.

"What have you got?" he asked

"Our possible killer. Or at least he may know who our killer is."
