Chapter 1
3rd POV
Ziva was standing, smug against the office wall. Her fist was curled in front of her mouth as she watched Tony and McGee fight. The fight was going to end soon and she knew who the winner would be, she heard the elevator ding as someone came to their floor.
McGee heard it to. 'You are such a weirdo Tony.' McGee said and turned back to his computer screen.
'Oh, yeah?' Tony was on his feet, standing rigidly. 'Well…' He thought for a moment, his finger hanging in the air. 'Well,' He said proudly, 'You're a geek!' He said waving his finger, he chuckled.
Ziva smiled and turned toward her desk and McGee chuckled and squinted at the computer screen. They were both hiding their smiles. Toney dropped his finger, stood up strait and grimaced. 'He's right behind me, isn't he?' He asked.
There was a whoosh of air and a thwack. Tony flinched and Gibbs walked past him. 'Be nice.' He said. When he got to the end of the office area, he held up a Caf-pow (a caffeine drink) and said, 'We got a live one.' He walked off as his office sprang into action.
Abby's lab was booming with rock music as Gibbs walked in. Abby was flitting around the lab, nothing odd… except for the boy passed out in the corner of the room. He had brown hair that was either gelled or naturally defying gravity.
'HEY GIBBS!' Abby called as she rushed over and to hug him.
'What have you got Abbs?' He said and handed her the Caf-pow. 'And who is that?' He pointed at the boy.
'Oh, that's Sora. He saved me last night.' She turned and worked on one of her precious computers. 'And what I have is…' She stopped to suck on the straw of her Caf-pow, 'I ran a forensic test on the ash that was found around the wounds. But the ash shows is of no life form or thing that we know of.'
'So you've got noth-' he was cut off as the boy, Sora, groaned and sat up.
'Sorry Sora I didn't get to give you a pillow. You were asleep as soon as you touched the floor.' Abby said skipping over to him. Sora gripped at the fabric on his chest. Abby helped him up. 'This is Gibbs!' she said excitedly. 'Gibbs this is Sora.' She led him over and Sora held out his hand.
'Hi.' Gibbs said and shook his hand. 'So Abby says you saved her.' He crossed his arms like they were talking about his daughter.
'Huh? All I did was, stop the heartless.' Sora's eyes were wide and he gripped the back of his neck.
'JUST STOPPEDTHE HEARTLESS! You ran up to me and smashed those heartless!' Abby jumped up and down gripping Sora's hand. Sora blushed.
'Thankyou Sora…' He didn't know what his last name was. Sora cocked his head to the side in confusion. 'What's your last name?'
Sora shook his head. 'What's a last name?'
Gibbs shook his head. 'Never mind, just thank you. So, you know what those shadows are? If so, how much do you know about them?' he stared at Sora. (He's in interrogation mode.)
'Oh, the heartless? Yes, I fight them all the time.' He said wincing at the pain in his chest. 'They come in different shapes and sizes and they always have some black and always have yellow eyes.' He looked away. 'Could I please sit down?' Abby nodded and pulled out a wheelie chair, Sora sat down sighing.
He might be able to catch the person controlling these things. 'In that case, are you able to come with me? You might be able to help catch a killer.' He turned to Sora.
'I'll do what I can.' Sora puffed. He followed Gibbs out the door, leaving behind a worried Abby.
