A/N Thank you for all the alerts Faves and reviews this story is getting. and sorry for the delay I've never written 2 stories at once but they are both getting my attention and will both get finished...eventually!
I know i'm not posting as fast as i'd like but am in the process of moving my ever lovingly annoying 16 year old back home, no excuse i know but that also is causing a delay in posting so i'm posting every few days rather than every day.
Anyway enjoy this chapter and if you like please leave a review. :)
Disclaimer as chapter 1
Chapter 7
'What the hell just happened?' Tony asked himself sitting in interrogation.
Two minutes ago he was trying to find his friend the next thing he knew he was being accused of kidnapping him. This whole thing had been hinky from the start, what with Tim and Sarah's 'super' powers and working for the CIA and now this. He was beginning to wonder if he'd had too much to drink and was going to wake up soon.
"Abbs I need you to go through Tony's computer, check his bank records, personal files everything." Gibbs snapped.
"He didn't do this Gibbs, he couldn't have," Abby said worried for her friend. She cared about both Tim and Tony, but she had known Tony for years and in her mind there was no way he fiercely loyal 'big brother' would do anything to endanger anyone on his team.
"I need that info; Tim's not here so you have to get it... NOW!" he hated to be this forceful with her but he was now two men down and needed to sort this out.
If Tony was guilty he'd damn well go and sort him out, but if as he hoped he wasn't and it was just Tony's knack of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Then he had to clear him.
Dave sat at Tim's desk looking not like the head of a major government agency but like a father who had just lost everything. Gibbs knew exactly how he felt and sympathized with him.
"We will find him" Gibbs said. "Hopefully they'll be together and we'll find them both."
Dave looked up and Gibbs' gut clenched at the look in the man's eyes he'd seen that look in the mirror when he'd lost Shannon and Kelly.
"I don't know how this got out. They were such a closely kept secret, God Gibbs if it is him, even he doesn't know how powerful they are together. IF, Tim remembers and loses it and the bomb is nearby it wont matter if it is primed or not." Dave looked Gibbs in the eye making sure he got the full impact of what he was about to say, "Gibbs, with Sarah's boost Tim could accidentally take out the whole of Washington."
Gibbs grabbed the desk as the statement washed over him. Tim, HIS Tim on HIS team was really a dangerous weapon, and not knowing this had meant that HE had lost control and could be as responsible for this as those bastards that had taken him.
"G…Gibbs I've got something, but….." Abby said as she looked up from the computer with tears running down her face.
"Abbs?" He was beside her in less than a second. "Show me." He said quietly.
She pulled up Tony's accounts and put them on the plasma for all to see.
"Tony got a payment this morning from Varano's bank account for $500,000 also there are emails going back and forth for about 3 months from an ADMCG. To Tony." She sniffed and wiped her eyes.
"ADMCG?" Gibbs asked.
"That's what the email is signed" Abby explained. She put some of the Emails up on the plasma and Gibbs was shocked at the amount of apparent hatred that came from the emails. Tony saying about how McGee was messing with him, how he hated the fact he was so smart and was rubbing his face in things to how much the world would be better when The Way's objective was complete and the world was fairer.
"Print them out Abbs." Gibb said, grabbed the papers and strode down to interrogation.
Tim was groggy and he felt sick.
"OW!" He said after trying to sit up.
"Lay still stupid! You just had your head bashed in" Came a familiar voice.
"Sarah?" Tim said opening his eyes slowly and looking up into the face of his little sister.
"Yep," She smiled at him and felt the love he had for her wash over her in waves.
"I'm fine Timmy," She said and lovingly stroked his forehead and helped him slowly sit up. "I take it this isn't your rescue attempt?" she quipped at him.
"No I?" He stopped as he remembered what had happened. "I went to see Varano and got hit by…..Joe, Joe the janitor he's working with them!" He frantically started searching his pockets for his phone to let Gibbs know. "Damn, No phone."
He stopped as the sound of a bolt being drawn back came to him and the door opened. A large man's figure was silhouetted in the doorway and a deep voice boomed in the room. "Hello kids, miss me?"
Sarah looked at Tim confused. Tim shivered at the voice but try as he might he couldn't remember who this man was but his voice sent a wave of terror through Tim and he instinctively moved himself between this man and his sister.
Sarah looked at Tim feeling what he felt "Tim?" She whispered
'It's ok Sarah, stay behind me' Tim sent to her, 'I KNOW HIM! WHY DO I KNOW HIM? WHO IS HE?' His mind screamed and she flinched from the sheer terror he was feeling and was scared at how this time he couldn't hide the full force of his feelings from her.
The door slammed open and Gibbs threw a file in front of Tony who had jumped and scooted back in his chair as his boss stormed in.
"Wanna explain this?" Gibbs snarled at him.
Tony carefully reached for the file and started to look at the sheets of paper inside it. He looked completely confused.
"Boss?" Tony looked up, "I NEVER sent these emails. I don't know what this is about."
"How long have you been a member of this sick group? Do you enjoy selling out your Country and team mates?" Gibbs slammed a hand down on the desk, "COME ON DINOZZO…HOW LONG?"
Tony hadn't felt this set up since he'd been accused of murder. But that time Gibbs had been on his side.
"Boss….Can't you see it's like with Sterling…I'm being set up."
"Rule 17 DiNozzo." Gibbs said and glared at him. "It's not just the emails, you have stuff at your apartment, pamphlets, and a whole secret account ledger where you've been paying people, and IT'S IN YOUR HANDWRITING!" he yelled.
Tony sat stunned. "Boss, I'd never join those kooks. I'm being set up."
"Ya know DiNozzo, if it weren't for the video evidence on top of all this, I'd believe you." Gibbs was furious. "Ya know maybe your dad was right, you will end up in the gutter, Coz ya aren't working here anymore, Vance had fired your ass, and he's pushing for you to do time. Wanna lawyer?" He asked.
Tony collapsed… his whole world had just been ripped out from under him and they were here interrogating him instead of finding his friend. So he did the only thing he could think of and faked a major panic attack.
Gibbs stopped and looked at Tony struggling to breath and he got some of his clarity back.
"Hold on, let's get you to Ducky," He lifted Tony and helped him to the elevator.
As they left interrogation Gibbs waved the Agent guarding the door away, "Gonna take him to Ducky he needs medical help."
Tony leaned against the elevator and as Gibbs turned to press the button Tony grabbed the gun from the holster on Gibbs' hip and cold cocked him.
He hit the button for the evidence garage and he ran.
