Chapter 13.

Dave and Gibbs descended on the nurses' station. A senior nurse looked up and swallowed; just by looking, she could tell these too were serious.

"Tim and Sarah McGee." They said.

She looked at her computer. "Rooms 317 and 320" she said.

Both Dave and Gibbs looked furious.

"I gave specific instruction they were to be kept together." Dave said.

"Is there a problem." A doctor came up to them.

"Why did you separate the McGee siblings?" Dave asked

"We do not put different sexes in the same room in this hospital." The doctor said.

There was a commotion from down the hallway, "You have to let me get to her, she needs me!"

"Tim!" Dave said and they went towards the commotion.

Two orderlies were holding Tim back and he was frantically trying to get away from them as another doctor came from behind with a syringe.

"Stop now!" Dave bellowed.

Tim instantly calmed and the doctor stopped.

"Do NOT put that in my son." Dave ordered.

The doctor looked at Tim and then Dave. "Sir, this man needs sedating he is extremely agitated." The doctor puffed his chest out sure of his own importance.

Dave squared up to the man, "I am the Director of the CIA, my son has been through a harrowing ordeal and MUST be put with his sister immediately," He ordered.

The doctor deflated and quickly changed tactic. "But he's agitated?"

Gibbs grabbed Tim by the arm, "McGee calm down we'll get you to Sarah."

Tim focused on his surroundings. "B….Boss?"

Gibbs and Dave helped Tim to Sarah's room with the doctor close on their heels.

"Sarah!" Tim said as he practically fell in the door.

Sarah clung to Tim like a lifeline, "Tim, they took me away from you again." She cried.

The others stood there as Tim and Sarah stared at each other; as Sarah nodded to Tim's unspoken question; both Dave and Gibbs knew the pair were having a silent conversation with each other.

"Better?" Dave asked,

"Daddy!" Sarah let go of Tim and wrapped her arms around her.

"It's over now baby," Dave said reassuring her, "You just have to get some fluids in you and you'll be able to go home."

As Sarah began to feel better, Tim's posture started to relax again.

Gibbs seeing that he could see Tim was ok went out to the waiting room where sure enough he found the others and surprisingly Director Vance waiting.

"Gibbs! How are they?" Abby asked.

"They're fine, Sarah needs more fluids she was the worse of the two, Tim is just about ready to be discharged." He told them.

The others breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good to hear, Agent Gibbs," Vance said leading his Agent aside.

"Tom Morrow is being cited on charges of kidnapping and torture." He told Gibbs who grunted appreciatively.

It was two more weeks before Tim was able to come back to work.

He got there early wanting to catch up on everything he had missed during his time 'away'.

Gibbs' desk was already occupied but both Tony and Ziva had not arrived yet.

"Morning, McGee." Gibbs said acknowledging his junior agents presence.

"Morning, Boss." Tim said starting up his computer. He groaned at the number of missed Emails he had to deal with. "This is why I hate missing work." He grumbled to himself.

Gibbs bit back a small grin at the grumble. He walked around his desk and stood in front of Tim's desk. "How's Sarah?" he asked.

Tim stopped and cocked his head slightly to one side. "She's fine, she says hi."

"Tim, just because we now know what you can do, it doesn't mean when I ask about your sister you have to ask her…. It's conversation, you know."

"Yes, Sorry Boss." Tim blurted out. "Does this mean you want me to hide what I can do?" he asked unsure of where he stood now.

"God, No!" Gibbs said, "Especially when what you do can help in a case, but you are not our personal 'mind-link' to Sarah, I have a cell phone, I can call her."

"Yes Boss, Sorry Boss." Tim said.

Gibbs turned to head to Vance's office and hid a smirk. That was one kid that, no matter how many times he quoted rule 6 would never stop apologizing.

"Hey McPsychic," Tony grinned as he entered the bullpen, "Welcome back."

Tim smiled over at Tony. "Thanks Tony," He said and waved his hand and Tony's computer came on by itself.

"Cool," Tony said slightly awed.

"Don't get used to it. It's a one time offer." Tim stated and got back to his emails.

Jimmy walked into the bullpen. "Oh?" he said and Tony looked up.

"Autopsy Gremlin, to what do we owe the pleasure?" He asked.

"Hey Tony, I was looking for Abby but she doesn't seem to be in yet." He said and walked over to Tim's desk, "Welcome back Tim."

"Thanks." Tim said absentmindedly, "Wait you said Abby wasn't in?"

"Well nothing is switched on in her lab and it's really quiet in there so I don't think she's in."

"I'll try calling her," Tony offered. He picked up his phone but all he got were voicemails.

Tim opened another email. His computer monitor flickered but he managed to keep it under control.

"I'm going for coffee Tony, you want some," he said.

Tony looked confused, Abby was possibly missing and Probie was going for coffee?

"Sure, Tim." He said as Tim got in the elevator Tony ran over to his desk.

He took a look at the email on Tim's computer and printed it out just as Tim's screen went blank.

"Boss!" Tony ran up to Gibbs who was descending the stairs, "We've got a problem."

"What's this DiNozzo?" He asked looking at the piece of paper Tony had given him.

"I got this off McGee's computer just before he wiped it."

Gibbs read the Email.

To.

From: J.V

Subject: I am Back.

I have the pleasure of Ms Scuito's company. Although she is not my type I'm sure I could find something to do to her to pass the time.

You see Timmy, I am a very patient man, Matt meant everything to me and you killed him and tried to kill our dream. You will NOT win. However, I digress I NEED YOU Timmy. Your father knew of your importance and I learnt of Ms Scuito's importance to you, I knew that she would be the perfect tool to get you to help me.

I will know when you receive this email; you must leave immediately and go to the place where your father and I taught you a lesson. DO NOT TELL ANYONE OR SHE WILL DIE!

Gibbs paled as he read this. He picked up the phone and called Dave. He explained the situation to him, "Do you understand any of this?" Gibbs asked.

"Julius Varano was involved with Matt McGee after Tim's mother died. He was helping beat Tim when I found him." Dave said.

"Involved?" Gibbs asked.

"They are….were lovers. I thought you had him in custody?" Dave said.

"Posted bail a few days ago. I need to know where you last saw Tim with Varano." Gibbs said.

Dave gave them an address in Herald Harbor on Riverside Drive. "Find him." Was all Dave said as Gibbs put the phone down.

"Grab yer gear," Gibbs said as the elevator doors closed Gibbs said quietly "Hold on Abbs, we're coming."
