This chapter is really short(so sorry) and so is the next one. But I do want to give you a little wait(muahaha) at the end of this chapter 'cause there is a bit of a cliffhanger. I already have the next chapter wrote, I finished it yesterday, so I will probably post it tomorrow.
"What? When?"
"I don't know. We are working on finding out if she ever had the child." Brennan's phone rang. She answered it. "Brennan." There was a pause then, "Okay," and she hung up. " They found the child. Two-and-a-half years old. It's a girl named Jessie David-DiNozzo."
"My mini ninja," Tony said.
"Your what?"
"Never mind."
Tony flicked the switch and directed the elevator to go back to the squad room. When the doors opened they stepped out, Tony deep in thought, Brennan wondering what Tony was talking about when he said his 'mini ninja.' Then she remembered Tony had called Ziva a ninja.
"They found the child, Booth," Brennan said when she walked up to Booth.
"That's great, Bones."
"Bones?" Tony asked.
"I am a forensic anthropologist. I work with Bones at the Jeffersonian. Bones are very fascinating," Brennan replied.
"Does that mean Ziva is just bones now?"
"Yes, it does."
"Child?" McGee asked.
"Yes. Jessie David-DiNozzo."
"What?" McGee said, trying to sort out the facts in his head.
"Do they have her at the FBI or the Jeffersonian?" Booth asked.
"No. They just called to inform us. They do not even know if she is alive. She has been off the radar for two weeks, around the time of death of Ziva."
