Heh thanks for the reviews, and thanks especially to Mandi and Ellen for the constructive criticism…and a big thanks to my friend Emily for helping me out (she goes by the penname "love-is-just")

…so here's the next chapter. Please tell me what you all think!!

Kate went to check her reflection in the rear-view mirror of Tony's car, but was shocked when she saw no one there. "Oh!" she then laughed as she realised that she was invisible to everyone but Tony. The situation reminded her of Beetle Juice.

"You ready to see the team again?" Tony asked nervously as he sat in the driver's seat next to Kate. It seemed as though it was himself he was trying to convince.

"Yeah." She shrugged nonchalantly, as if it was no big and she hadn't suggested it in the first place.

McGee looked up as the elevator doors opened; a relieved look came across his face when he saw it was Tony.

"Tony, where have you been?"

"Sorry, mom." Tony looked at the clock on the wall, "It's only 9am."

"Exactly. Gibbs won't be happy." McGee then watched as Tony turned to the space next to him and said, "I told you this would happen."

McGee gave Tony a curious look. He pointed to the space next to Tony and asked, "what was that?"

"Talkin' to Kate." Tony shrugged, "you can't see her?"

McGee shook his head cautiously. "Maybe you should sit down, take a deep breath."

Tony disagreed. "No, I'm gonna go see Abby. She'll believe me."

McGee watched as Tony walked off to the elevator, stepping - aside as if to let someone in, but there was no one there.

"Ok, Abby I tried explaining this to McGee but he wouldn't believe me." Tony called out as he walked in to Abby's lab. "I can see Kate."

Abby turned around; a sympathetic, yet patronising look on her face to begin with. But the moment she saw her dead best friend standing next to Tony, her face lit up. "Kate! I thought you'd died." She raced over with open arms, but when Abby went to her she ran right through her. Abby turned and looked at Tony, then Kate, confused.

"I am dead, Abby." Kate spoke, "You just can't touch me."

"Oh. Can you touch me?"

"Yeah, but you wouldn't be able to feel it."

There was a moment of awkward silence before Tony spoke again. "You know, this must mean that Abby hasn't moved on either."

"Why's that?"

"Well, because the only reason I can see her is 'cause I'm still attached. It must be the same for you." Tony explained, Kate nodding in agreement.

"Well in this case I'll never move on, 'cause I'm so glad you're still here!" Abby carefully wrapped her arms around the space that Kate stood in and pretended to hug her. She looked in the doorway of her lab and saw Ziva standing there, giving an extremely concerned look. From Ziva's point of view, Abby was hugging air, with no one else in sight but Tony.

"Hey Ziva!" Abby chirped. "This is our old co-worker, Kate! She's meant to be dead, but we can see her."

Ziva frowned. "I can't see anyone standing there."

"Yeah. See she didn't know Kate so she can't see her." Tony re-explained.

"But McGee knew me and he didn't see me." Kate grumbled.

"He's in denial, though."

"Mm, Uh huh." Abby nodded, her piggy tails bopping around.

Ziva rolled her eyes, "Mossad warned me about NCIS."

This earned her three scornful glares. Well, two. She just couldn't see the third one.

"What? I can't see her! Caitlin Todd is dead, yes?" Ziva said flatly.

Abby, Tony, and Kate crossed their arms in synchronisation.

"Ziva, just because you can't see Kate, it doesn't mean she's not there." Abby said matter-of-factly.

Ziva shook her head in disbelief, turned and left.

"So that's your new co-worker." Kate noted.

"No offence, but I don't think she likes you." Tony stated.

Gibbs turned from the MTAC screen, and blinked in shock to suddenly see Tony right next to him. He was standing uncomfortably close and giving him his infamous puppy-dog-eyes look.

"Coffee boss?" Tony held up a large Styrofoam Starbucks cup and Gibbs took it, looking at him warily. He took a sip.

"What'ya do to it this time?"

"Ha ha, Gibbs that wasn't me that time, it was Kate, remember?" Tony reminisced nostalgically.

(A/N: my old fanfic- Kate put salt in Gibbs' coffee).

Gibbs shrugged carelessly, "Why are you sucking up?"

Tony laughed nervously, "I'm not sucking up."

Gibbs' eyes narrowed, a knowing look cast over his face.

"Ok, maybe just a little," Tony admitted, "But I really need your opinion on this."

Gibbs fought hard to keep the smile off his face. "Ok." He liked the fact that someone needed his opinion.

"Have you ever had an experience with the supernatural?" Tony tried easing in to the topic.

Gibbs' eyebrows shot up questioningly. "I can't say that I have. Why?"

"Because I'm seeing Kate." Tony whispered, looking around suspiciously as if he were revealing a conspiracy theory the government doesn't want anyone knowing.

Gibbs didn't know whether or not to believe him. "Oh. So does she talk to you?"

"Yeah, she does. And she said that I can see her because I haven't gotten over her. So if that's the case, then you can see her as well." Tony was excited, like a little kid in a candy store.

Gibbs frowned doubtfully. "I don't know, Tony. Are you sure you haven't hit your head recently. Have you gone off your medication from the Plague?"

"No! Gibbs I swear I'm not seeing things. This is real."
