I do not own NCIS or any of it's characters. Though I wish that I did.

Sorry for any spelling/grammar mistakes.


"Somebody killed you! Your dead!"

Ari did a nasty grin, "No...I'm alive."

******

Tony could not believe the words that he had just heard. He lunged at Ari in anger, but he just went right through him.

"Agent DiNozzo, I am just a figure of your imagination. The real me is somewhere out there."

"What are you going to do? Kill more innocent people!"

"No, what I want to do is not going to harm anyone."

"And how can I trust you?"

"You will trust me if you want me to go away. And in order to do that you must go to autopsy.

***

In autopsy.

Ducky was inspecting the body of Emma Meyer, when he heard the doors open.

"Hello Jethro, I was wondering when you would stop by."

"This isn't Gibbs, Duck."

"Why hello Anthony. How are you," Ducky had heard that something was going on with Tony.

"I'm fine, but she isn't."

"Ah, yes. This reminds me of...."

Tony was no longer listening. He was just staring at the body on the table.

Ari shook his head at Ducky, "Doctor Mallard has not changed it seems."

"No, he does seem to hate you more every day."

Ari didn't pay attention to that he walked over to the women on the autopsy table, and stroked his hand on her cheek.

Ari turned to Tony, "Does this look familiar to you?"

Tony eyed the bullet in the head and said nothing. Trying look like he was listening to Ducky, when he was trying to listen to Ari.

"The bullet in the head? The women," asked Ari.

Tony looked at her. She looked very similar to Kate, and the bullet in her head was in the same spot.

"Doesn't this remind you of Caitlin," Ari took a scarf out of his pocket and tied it around his neck, "This looks familiar, yes?"

"Anthony, have you been listening to a word of what I was saying," Ducky stared at him.

Tony swallowed, "Yeah."

"What did a just say?"

"You know, the Scottish person, and the story, and the moral."

"If you had been listening, Anthony, you would have heard me say that the bullet was delivered to Miss Emma Meyer after her death. Which means that either the person really didn't like her or something was set up."

"I have to go, Duck," Tony ran out of their and went into the elevator.

Ducky turned to the corpse, "I swear sometimes Anthony can be as strange as Mr. Palmer."

***

Tony flicked on the emergency switch in the elevator, "You killed her!"

"When I said I wasn't going to kill any more innocent people, I didn't include her. I put her out of her misery. I was walking through Bichland Park trying to clear my head. I was on my way to NCIS. I was very frustrated to I sat down on a bench and tried to clear my mind. Then I spotted this beautiful women. She looked like Caitlin, a little bit. I was admiring her when she started yelling at some man. He went toward her with a knife, and by her body on the table it is clear to what happened. I went over to her and tried to stop the bleeding with my scarf, but I knew that it was futile. So, I put her out of her misery."

"So you went from a heartless bastard, to a merciful man? Not likely. Ducky said that the shot was delivered when she was already dead."

" You are a smart man, Agent DiNozzo. I did meet up with her but I did not just stumble across her. I was following her. She was my ticket to NCIS. I had gotten her file and had known that she was a Petty Officer. So I was going to kill her, with a bullet to the head. But then a man, as I said before, attacked her with a knife. I went up to her and noticed her beauty,I tried to stop her bleeding with my scarf, but it did not work. She died, and I had to shoot her in the head. I needed someone to notice how this reminded them of Kate, and who killed her. The whole team tried to block it out but you let your guilt come to you. So you started having dreams and then you started hallucinating of me. I didn't expect for this to happen exactly, but it did, and now you know."

Tony glared at the man with complete and total hate, "You wanted to come to NCIS?"


What do you think? I tried to make things less confusing in this chapter and clear some things up. Why does Ari want to come to NCIS, and why did he shoot a Petty Officer to do it? All will be revealed soon. Please review this chapter, it would be much appreciated. The big green button is so pretty. You know you want to click on it.
