AN: More secrets start to come out and Jibbs reforms! Stuff is starting to get serious. Enjoy.
AN 2: For those of you wonderful people who are Motive fans I know that in one of the earlier episodes Dr. Rogers character says she is glad she does not have children but then again that is the beauty of AU stories anything can happen.
"Why the hell is he in Vancouver DiNozzo?" Director Vance asked.
"Probably trying to get the teams mommy back Sir." Abby answered.
"Translation, he figured out former Director Shepard is alive so he went to profess his love for her and get her to come back here with us. Hopefully he can convince her to come back." Tony replied.
"What?!" Vance asked confused.

"Kids I am home and I have someone I would like you to meet so come to the livingroom." Jen yelled into the house as she opened the door.
"Hello I'm Alexis, I am 12 and the oldest. Nice to meet you Sir." a young woman with long, curly, dark brown hair and green eyes said cheerfully.
"Hello Alexis, I am Jethro Gibbs. You can call me Jethro or Gibbs, but not Sir since that makes me feel old." Gibbs replied just seconds after the 3 other children walked into the room.
"Hello Gibbs I am 9 years old and my name is Jared." a small black-haired boy said.
"Hi Jared it's nice to meet you buddy." Gibbs replied.
"Hi Mr. Gibbs I am Jared's twin Kyle and I am 9 too." the other small black-haired boy introduced himself.
"Hi Kyle, I look forward to getting to know you." Gibbs smiled.
Now feeling comfortable after her older sister and brothers introduced themselves to this seemingly nice man, the pretty little girl with Jen's red hair and his blue eyes gently tugged on his pant leg. Gibbs then squatted down to her level. "Hi Sweetie, I am a special friend of your mommy's, my name is Jethro. What's yours?"
"This is Sophia she is 4 and will be 5 on November 23rd. Alexis, Jared and Kyle can you go up to your rooms and get into clothes for dinner? And Alexis can you get something out for Sophia while Gibbs, Sophia and I have a little chat about something." Jenny said introducing their daughter not making a giant spectacle of the situation.
"Sure thing mom." Alexis said as she and her brothers ran up the stairs to change for a dinner out in town.
"So Soph do you remember mommy telling you that there is different about you than your sister and brothers? And when you asked what it was and I told you that you are the only one that came from mommy's tummy. I have something else to tell you about that and it involves my special friend Jethro here. Can you say hi to him?" Jen said one she was sure the three older kids were upstairs.
"Hi Mr. Jethro, I's Sophia!" the little girl said shyly.
"Jethro I know that by now you probably were able to put two and two together and figure out who Sophia is so why don't you introduce yourself to her again while I go explain things a bit better to the older kids." Jen said leaving Gibbs to talk to their daughter.
"Hi Sophia, I have one more part to tell you about your special connection with mommy. That is that I am your daddy. I know this is confusing but even though I just met you, sweet girl, I love you so much." Gibbs said picking his daughter up."Why don't we go upstairs and get you dressed for dinner?"
(Meanwhile Upstairs)
"Hey Kiddos, the 4 of us need to talk now that you are all ready for dinner so come with me." Jen said leading Alexis, Jared, and Kyle into her room.
"What's up mom are you okay?" Alexis asked.
"I am fine hun. What I need to tell you guys is that Sophia is not adopted like you three are. I still love the four of you the same as ever. But that man is downstairs is her father and until today he thought I died back in May of 2008 just before I adopted the three of you. We were together for about 2 years then I left to further my career but 6 years later I went back to DC and we ended up starting where we left off but this time it was a secret. Then sadly I had to make him think I died since someone was trying to hurt us so I came here to start over. Now he wants to get to know all four of you kids so that he can make us all happy and maybe even make our family whole one day." Jen explained.
"Mommy, I have an important question about Mr. Gibbs." Kyle said excitedly.
"And what is that Kyle?" Jen asked her son just as enthusiastically as Gibbs reached the doorway with Sophia dressed and ready for dinner.
"I want to ask him if he likes boats like I do." Kyle said seriously making everyone including Gibbs laugh as he set Sophia down.
"I love boats Kyle. I build them in the basement at my house. You will have to come help me someday." Gibbs replied smiling at the young boy.
"How about we leave for dinner now so we can be home to get to bed on time? To the van of awesomeness!" Jenny said leading the kids downstairs to the van.
Once the kids were in the van there was a staredown between Jenny and Gibbs which after about five minutes resulted in Gibbs reluctantly getting into the passenger seat of the minivan.
