I do not own NCIS or any of it's characters.

Sorry for not updating yesterday. My mom forced me to watch the American ice skating competition with her and my sister was using it all day.


Gibbs was horrified and looked down below and the freezing water, he was about to jump in when McGee grabbed his arm, "Boss! You'll get killed!"

"Ya' think I don't know that McGee?" and Gibbs dived in. He was not going to lose another agent, he and Tony couldn't save Kate. But there was a chance that he could save Tony.

As soon as he hit the water it sent chills through his body, and he came to the surface gasping for breath, he knew he couldn't let Tony down. He dived under again and reached around hoping to grab Tony, no. Gibbs came to the surface for another breathe. He would find Tony. He dived down again and searched frantically, until he finally felt something skim against his wrist, he knew what it was and grabbed it.

Now he needed to get up to the surface, a difficult task. Gibbs held Tony with two hands and started kicking with his feet. It seemed like he was going no where and he started to feel dizzy. He would not give up. Gibbs kicked harder and harder until he emerged to the surface. He gasped for air and started going to the shore while holding Tony, where Ziva and McGee were standing and he heard sirens in the distance. Probably the paramedics.

He kept going untill he felt ground under his feet and he trudged to the shore holding Tony. Ziva and McGee rushed out and Ziva brought Tony in and McGee helped Gibbs in. They layed Gibbs on the ground so he could rest but Gibbs refused. The man was shivering violently but he went over to Tony, and started to do CPR. He pounded on his chest and breathed in his mouth but nothing happened. Tony's face had a blueish tinge, and Gibbs hoped that that was just from the cold. He continued doing CPR.

"Come on Tony!" he yelled. But there was no response. The sirens had grown louder and he saw an ambulance park up on the road, Ziva and McGee had probably called it. Paramedics rushed down and they put Tony and Gibbs on a stretcher and they rushed them up the hill, and into the ambulance. There was barely enough room in the ambulance for Tony, Gibbs, and the paramedics working on Tony. They were shocking him putting shots into him and doing CPR. Nothing seemed to be working. Gibbs turned his head and looked at Tony, the paramedics were on the other side of Tony. Gibbs sat up and leaned toward him, just a bit and he whispered, "You will not die."

Then the ambulance doors opened and many paramedics rushed Tony away while another group rushed Gibbs in but not as urgently or as quickly. They put Gibbs into a bed and put an IV into his arm. They said that he was going to be fine and when Gibbs asked about Tony they said that they would check.

Out in the waiting room were Ducky, Palmer, Ziva, McGee, and Abby. Abby's head was in McGee's lap and she was upset, "Why do they always do this, Timmy? Can't they just stay safe for once?"

McGee silently stroked her cheek and gave her a kind look, not sure what to say. Ziva was being quiet and she felt guilt all over her. There seemed to be a case of the guiltiness around here, Tony would probably say something like that. Palmer was just sitting there not sure what to do and Ducky was arguing with the women at the front desk.

"Why, you must let us see Jethro and Anthony we are there family."

The women shook her head, "I'm sorry but Anthony DiNozzo is in extensive care right now."

"Then why can't we see Jethro?" Duck was starting to get really annoyed. Gibbs was his long time friend and he wanted to see him.

"I don't-" began the women but then a doctor cut her off.

"It's all right, Barbara, Special Agent Gibbs is not in critical condition you may all see him."

Abby jumped up, "Which room?"

"Follow me," said the doctor and they all followed him to a room where they saw Gibbs in a bed. His was slightly shivering and his face was a little flushed. But besides that and the IV Gibbs didn't look as bad as Tony probably did right now.

Abby flew to Gibbs, "Gibbs," she exclaimed as she hugged him, "Your all right!"

Ducky walked over and he chuckled, "How are you feeling Jethro?"

"Like crap, but I'm okay. How's Tony?"

Ducky's face fell, "From what I know he is in critical condition, but they were able to restart his heart."

"Then he'll be fine," said Gibbs, "The boys a fighter.. and I ordered him to live. He would not disappoint me."

Tony was unconscious at the moment and he was actually liking it. He felt like he was as light as air and as strong as the Hulk. He was sitting at his desk in NCIS and across from him was Kate.

"Hey, Tony," said Kate.

Those words were like music to Tony's ears. How he missed her soft and soothing voice, "Am I dead?" he asked and he didn't know which answer he would prefer.

Kate smiled, "No, I;m just a figure of you imagination but this time," and she stood up, "Please keep me in these clothes and not in some Catholic School girl uniform like last time."

"I missed you, Kate."

Kate furrowed her eye brows, "Yeah Tony I know I've been watching you. Killing yourself? Seriously?"

Tony shrugged his shoulders, "I should've been the one to die, not you."

"Tony there was nothing that you could've done, to save me, but you can save yourself. You've become a good man over these past couple years. Some times I can't recongize the sex loving, moving loving, goof ball that was my partner. You've grown up."

"Kate...where you really mad at me?"

"No, Tony, I was just trying to hide my feelings that's all. And those rumors you made about me helped kindle the fire."

He smiled, "Do you think that Gibbs will be mad at me?"

"He will if you don't wake up. Gibbs, McGee, and everyone needs you. You can't let them down. If you do I'll kick your ass in heaven."

She came over and kissed Tony on the cheek, Kate slowly disappeared and Tony opened his eyes. "Good-bye Kate," said Tony softly and doctors stated rushing all around him.


There is now only one more chapter. I'm really pleased about this and I hope you are. This is the longest one that I have made so far. It's over 1,250 words. That's a big accomplishment for me.
