AN/ It's bee a while since I was five and I don't remember how I acted and I don't have a lot of children around me so no experience at all. So if Kiara seems a little wise for her ages just accept it, if she appears a little childish for her age accept it.
Also, my Russian is a little (okay a lot...) rusty so I keep it in English, you'll know when they talk Russian.
And some of you might have noticed that I removed SOS Ronald Reagan, but my fin in that story disappeared, I will be putting a different story for it in it's place. One where Shannon and Kelly survived and Gibbs meets Tony.
Chapter three
Flashback;
'Dadda!' Once he came home he heard his little girl shouting for him and soon after footsteps could be heard. Laughing he caught the also laughing four year old in his arms.
'Hi little girl, have you missed me?'
'Yes! I have made a drawing for you!'
'You know how I love those! Go get him baby girl while I say mommy hello.' He put Kiara down. He then looked at Lisa.
'Hello beautiful', he said.
'Hi handsome, glad your home safe' she said before kissing him. Tony had made it clear that he would never talk about his work, he wanted his family safe and protected.
'I have dinner ready.'
'You know how I love diner!', he said jokingly like he had done earlier with his daughter.
'And don't I know it,' Said Lisa laughing. 'Go freshen yourself up and put some other clothes on, then we can eat. Right then Kiara came back running and threw herself in her fathers arms again.
'Here dadda!', she said proudly. Tony accepted the painting and grinned wide.
'It's us in front of our house! I only drew a dog extra since you promised I could have one for my birthday.'
'It's beautiful, baby girl, I like what you have done with my hair, do you think I should really paint it green?' Kiare giggled.
'Don't you dare', Lisa warned.
'Daddy? May I have a purple dog, just like the drawing?'
'I don't know, they are really, really rare, I have never seen one yet,' he said while putting her down. 'Now, go wash your hands, daddy will be right back', he said before walking upstairs.
End flashback
Tony woke up with a shock and cursed this all. It had been years since he had dreamed about them but now that this all was happening it all came back to him.
'He took a look at his clock, he had slept pretty long, he had missed lunch...hell, it's time for dinner! He stood up and then it hit him. This isn't home!
He heard noise coming from outside the room and went to check. While dong that the day started slowly to return to him. The picture he received, telling everyone about his family, the migraine...Gibbs! He's in Gibbs' house. Awkward.
He opened the door and nearly knocked Gibbs over...or visa versa.
'Gibbs, sorry about that...and about earlier.'
'Don't apologize DiNozzo.'
'I know, it's a sign of weakness.'
'Not now or here and especially not between friends.' He beckons Tony to follow him to the living room. On the coffee table lay two boxes of pizza and two beer bottles.
'I thought we could talk over a pizza and beer.' Tony nodded his agreement and sat down.
'What's this about Gibbs?' He took a good look at the older man and didn't like what he saw. Gibbs was as pale as the dead body's in autopsy.
'Gibbs, are you okay?'
'Yeah, just not easy to talk about.'
'You don't have to.' Gibbs shook his head.
'I gave you a piece of advise, it's time I took it myself.' Tony had no idea what Gibbs was talking about. He watched how Gibbs opened his wallet and took a picture out.
'I'm going to tell you something, show you something but I don't want the team to know it just yet.' Tony gave a short nod.
'When I was still in the marines, I to had a family. A wife and a beautiful daughter,' he showed Tony the picture. Tony's eyes were wide in surprise. The it hit him! Gibbs had used past sentence with them!
'When I was deployed my wife, Shannon, witnessed a Mexican drug dealer named Pedro Hernandez kill a marine. She and my daughter, Kelly, fell under witness protection...' Damn it was difficult to talk about them! He didn't want to talk about them, it still hurt to much!
'One day they were in the car, driving when the driver, a NIS agent who had to protect them got shot. Shannon and Kelly died in the crash.'
'Boss, I'm so sorry...', Tony whispered. Gibbs shook his head and gave him a sad smile.
'Happened a long time ago Tony, I know what you are going through and I know you want the pay the bastard's back...I did.'
'You killed him.' It was a statement, not a question.
'Mike went to the head and left the file where I could find him on his desk. Accidentally of course.'
'Of course', came Tony's answer.
'Anyway, I went to Mexico with my riffle and put a bullet in his head. I joined NIS after that.'
'They were beautiful boss, how old was Kelly?'
'She was eight when she died.'
'I'm sorry you had to go through that.'
'I will help you to get the bastard Tony, no matter what.' Tony gave his boss a thankful smile when his phone rang. He didn't check caller ID and just picked up.
'DiNozzo.' he said. It was then that he heard the Russian voice he despises.
'Hello Aleks, have you missed me?' Tony had to swallow a few times before he could answer. It had been a while since he had spoken Russian but he knew he could still do it!
'What do you want Arkadi?' Gibbs was impressed, he should have known that Tony speaks Russian, how else could he have gone undercover as a Russian arms dealer.
'Look out the window.' Then the connection was broken. Tony looked out the window and saw a man, dressed in black give him a smile and throw something. Pure on instinct he threw himself over Gibbs and hit the ground just before the explosion. Then everything became black. Gibbs stayed conscious a little longer. It took him a while to register why Tony tackled him but then it it him. There was an explosion! The world was spinning around him and his head was killing him where he hit it on the floor. He tried to look for Tony but the spinning and the nausea was becoming to much for him and blacked out.
Just to be clear, the conversation on the phone was in Russian. I know that Tony in NCIS doesn't speak Russian but here he does.
