As the ambulance pulled away and he knew Ziva was going to be safe, Tony ran... Even as Gibbs called after him, he kept going...kept running. He didn't know what else to do. He didn't want the other EMTs to help him; to bandage his bloody wounds. He didn't deserve their help. Not after what he'd done. So he ran. And at the first fire-escape ladder he came to, he started his way to the top.
Gibbs couldn't understand why his senior field agent had unexpectedly taken off. He and McGee, with Abby's help, had finally found them; saved them. And now Tony was running. As he chased after him, he saw the younger man start to climb the side of the building and knew he could catch up.
Tony was already on top of the roof when Gibbs reached the ladder. And when the older man finally reached the top, he hadn't expected to see him standing near the edge, looking down...
"DiNozzo..." he called, cautiously. Tony spun around, a bit surprised that he'd been found so quickly. "What are you doing?" Gibbs saw raw pain and anguish written on his face. Then defeat, as he broke down in front of him, thwarted from his plans to jump over the edge of the building. He wouldn't do that in front of Gibbs...
His body crumbled to sit on the on the concrete below him as he hid his face behind his hands.
"Tony... What happened?" Gibbs asked as he knelt beside him, unsure of what to say or do.
"He made me..." he squeaked as he attempted to bring his sobs to a halt. He swallowed a painful lump, "He made me rape her..." his sobs rekindled.
"What?"
"He made me rape Ziva..." he laid his head down on the concrete roof and balled up on his side.
Tbc...
