A/N: Okay, so I know that Tony and Ziva are married and they have kids, but at headquarters Ziva is still referred to by her maiden name to avoid confusion.


Special Agent David

Ziva and Tony arrived at NCIS forty-five minutes later with Tyler and Chloe in tow. McGee and Gibbs were at their desks, along with Jenny, who was sitting on Gibbs's desk, a folder in her hand.

"Ah, Ziva, just the person I wanted to see," Jenny said as Ziva dropped Chloe's diaper bag behind her desk.

"What's up?" Ziva asked as struggled to hold Chloe while checking her mail.

"I have the papers," Jenny said. Ziva stopped rifling through the mail and looked up at Jenny.

"Really?" Ziva asked in disbelief.

"What papers?" Tony asked, looking up from setting Tyler up with a coloring book behind his desk.

"Ziva is now Special Agent David," Jenny said, handing Ziva the folder and taking Chloe from her, causing Gibbs to glare at her. Ziva opened the folder and looked at the papers with amazement.

"Thank you so much, Jenny," Ziva said.

"Anything for my friends," Jenny said. "I'll take Chloe upstairs with me."

"Alright, make sure you take her bag," Ziva said, waving a hand in the direction that she had dropped it, still staring at the papers in her hand. As soon as Jenny had went up stairs Tony practically leapt over his desk to stare over Ziva's shoulder at the termination papers from Mossad.

"Why didn't you tell me about this?" Tony asked sounding hurt.

"I was going to but then we had the case and it sort of slipped my mind," Ziva said, finally flipping the folder closed.

"So you're one of us now?" McGee asked.

"Yes, and I don't have to worry about getting recalled by Mossad," Ziva said as she placed the folder in her drawer. Just then, McGee and Tony's phone rang at the same time. They answered and each talked quietly for a moment and then hung up.

"Boss, that was Metro, the picked up Kierny on a traffic charge and when they ran his name, our BOLO came up. They're bringing him in now," Tony said. Gibbs turned to look at McGee.

"Boss, that was the hospital, Lisa Hollaway is awake," McGee said.

"Alright, McGee, you go to the hospital and interview Lisa Hollaway. Tony, take Tyler upstairs with Jenny and then I want you and Ziva in observation," Gibbs said, standing up.

"On it, Boss," Tony and McGee said at the same time.


Twenty minutes later Tony and Ziva were standing in observation waiting for Gibbs to walk in. Corporal Matt Kierny was sitting at the table, handcuffs still encircling his wrists. He was looking down at the table, not moving. Then, Gibbs burst through the door making Kierny jump. Gibbs threw the folder with the case information on the table, pictures of Kierny's wife spilling out. Kierny looked at the pictures, but didn't say anything.

"That is a picture of your wife with her face beaten in," Gibbs said finally. "Want to explain to me how it got that way?" Kierny looked up at Gibbs.

"I didn't kill my wife," he said hollowly.

"Oh, so she beat her own face in?" Gibbs said. "Here's the deal. We have a statement from your son saying that you and your wife had an argument. The next morning he went downstairs and found her like this. Can you imagine what that would do to a seven year old, finding his mother bloodied and dead? Oh, and on top of the murder charge we can add aggravated assault to the list."

"What for?" Kierny asked calmly.

"For viciously beating Sergeant Lance Hollaway's wife, Lisa Hollaway," Gibbs said. "And while we're discussing charges, let's add sexually assaulting a minor," Gibbs said sitting down at the table and folding his hands.

"I don't know what you're talking about," Kierny said.

"Like hell you don't, you molested your two year old daughter, threatened to kill your son, killed your wife and beat someone else's. Juries tend to take those things kind of seriously. So, here's the deal, we're going to charge you with two counts of aggravated assault, one count of murder, and one count of sexual assault of a minor. I hope you enjoy rotting in prison," Gibbs said, and then left the room, leaving the officers outside the door to haul Kierny away.


McGee was sitting at his desk when Gibbs, Tony, and Ziva walked back into the bullpen.

"I talked to Lisa Hollaway. She confirmed that she was beaten by Kierny. They were having an affair. When she found out that he murdered his wife, she told him that it was over. That was when he came over and beat her. The only thing that stopped him from killing her was our arrival, we missed him by a few minutes," McGee said.

"Good job, Tim," Gibbs said. "Oh, and by the way, congratulations." McGee stared at him.

"Boss, how did you," McGee began, but Tony clapped him on the shoulder.

"McGee, it's the Bossman, he knows everything," Tony said.


Later that evening McGee and Ziva went to get dinner, Tony approached Gibbs's desk. Gibbs looked up t him over his glasses.

"Is there something I can do for you, Tony?" Gibbs asked, pulling his glasses off of his face.

"Ziva and I talked about this and we've decided that we want to adopt Tyler and Chloe," Tony said. Gibbs opened one of his drawers and pulled a folder out.

"I was wondering when you were going to talk to me about that," Gibbs said, holding the folder out to Tony. "All you and Ziva have to do is sign and Tyler and Chloe are yours," Gibbs said. Tony looked down at the papers in his hand.

"Thanks, Boss," Tony said.


That night, after they had gotten the kids in bed, Tony showed Ziva the adoption papers.

"Maybe Abby is right," Ziva said as she signed the papers under Tony's signature. "Maybe Gibbs is psychic."

"Yeah," Tony said, kissing Ziva. "So, we are Special Agent David now?'

"Yes," Ziva said.

"You have no idea how sexy that is," Tony said, kissing Ziva again.

In the night, the sound of a smack against the head was heard.


A/N: So, there is only one more chapter left, which would be the epilogue. Please review, as always!
