Chapter Eleven

'What have you guys got!', came the pained voice of Gibbs.

'Gibbs! You should be recovering in the hospital!', Balboa says concerned.

'No, I need to be working this case, Tony went after Arkadi and Bobrov himself and won't mind killing Konn to.'

'Do you think he knows where they are?', Ziva asks.

'Perhaps, we couldn't find anything on Arkadi or Bobrov, but we didn't know there was a third party in the game. I want to know all about Alik Konn, now!'

'On it Gibbs!' Came the reply of Balboa and Ziva.

'Jethro! What are you doing here? You should be still in the hospital.'

'Have a job to do Duck, I'm fine.'

'You sound as bad as Anthony, your clearly in pain, if I can't get you back to the hospital then I insist on you taking pain pills and laying down.'

'No can do Duck, need to be sharp.' His voice sounds soft and near defeated. He knew that the Russians would kill Tony whenever possible. He made a promise to his girls and his son! He needs to get to Tony.

'You need no such thing Jethro, you will be of no use to Anthony when you can barely stand. Rest now and help Anthony once we get him back.'

'If we get him back Duck, he's gone as a civilian and I don't think he will care if they kill him as long as he gets to take them with him.'

'You think it's that bad?'

'Ducky, this has gone on for years, he wants it over and won't care how he gets it done, as long that he gets it done.'

'Let me give you something light for the pain.'

'Fine Duck, but nothing that makes me drowsy.'

He stood in front of the house he stood in front of a lot of time in the past. When Lisa and Kiara were still alive Roy would ask them to come over to his vacation home to hang out and have fun. They loved it there and had many happy memories in that house, he couldn't believe that it was now used to hide the people that killed his family...that his old partner who was friends with Lisa would help in their murder.

He checked his gun and checked in the glove compartment for the letters he had written for his team in case he would not make it out alive.

'This is for you girls, after today this will all be over, I promise you.'

He turned his phone on and called Gibbs. He waited till he heard Gibbs pick up the phone end placed his phone on his seat in the car.

"DiNozzo! DiNozzo, stay where you are! We are coming do you hear me?"

'Bye boss...', he whispers and slammed the car door shut.

'DiNozzo! Ziva tell Abby to trace this call then meet me in the garage, Balboa, get the the on call team to back us up and meet me is the garage.'

Ziva and Balboa hurried to do as they were told and ran to the garage jumping in the car. Just as Gibbs drove off Abby called with an address.

'Speak Abby.'

'Gibbs, the call came from Baltimore, I send Ziva a text with the address.'

'Good job Abbs.'

'Bring him back Gibbs.' Gibbs hung up and drove as fast as he could.

Tony looked through the doors window if he could see anyone and once confirmed that no one was there he slipped in careful to not walk in a trap. That he didn't care if he got killed or not didn't mean that he would just walk into his grave.

Gun held high he searched the house and ended up in the living room. He could hear sounds coming...he recognized his voice singing a happy birthday song.

"Congratulations little princes of ours!"

"Daddy, mommy, uncle Roy, can we eat cake now?"

"You ask me if we can eat cake now?" Tony hears himself say. "Of course we can eat cake now, you know how much I love cake!" Kiara laughs and Lisa snorts. "The whole wide world knows how much you love cake Tony." A closeup of Lisa follows, then he hears a shot destroying the TV. A bullet hole in the glass where just Lisa's head had been.

'Bobrov', Tony says.

'Your wife was a real beauty Aleks...Tony. It was a shame to kill her and her little girl', he says in Russian.

'Where is Arkadi, and Konn?' A shot sounds and Tony cries out in pain and falls on his knees.

'Right here, partner', comes the voice of Alik.

'Tony grabs his gun from the ankle holster and shoots at Alik while jumping up and running for cover. Alik who saw Tony move moved for himself to take a shot which saved his life.

Tony could hear the bullet fly past his ear. After that shot Arkadi and Bobrov started to shoot to. Tony crawled to a better position and took a shot. A cry of pain told him that he hit his target.

'Why did you do it Roy! You were our friend!'

'No I wasn't! I was only spying for the Russian, have been since I was eighteen!'

'Then I won't be sorry to do this.' Tony left his cover and stood, shooting Alik right between the eyes. Bobrov and Arkadi pulled their guns and shot Tony.

Tony got hit in his arm, side and leg but ignored the pain. He needed to be strong and hold on for a little longer. He dove for cover grabbing Alik's gun while doing so.

Taking aim from just a little over the couch he shot Arkadi in his stomach before he got shot in the back, after that everything went black.

Gibbs and his team arrived just as the last shot rang. They looked at each other, scared for their friend and partner they went for the house. They hoped that Tony would be okay, but he was outnumbered and those guys didn't play by the books.

They stormed the house, Gibbs first, Ziva second followed by Balboa. In front of the house the back up came in.

'NCIS, freeze!', Gibbs yelled.

Bobrov stood above Tony's limp body, ready to put a bullet in his head. Ziva who saw what Bobrov was planning raised her gun and put two bullets in his head. Arkadi dropped his gun and raised his hands, smiling.

'Congratulations, you guys win', he says.
