Here is Chapter 2. The next two chapters will be called Preparations, and an Evening Walk.
Chapter 2: Meeting the Mob
Tim looked around as the agents walked down the streets, towards their meeting point with the NYPD. Looking back, Tim saw the original two men had been joined by 3 more, including one, who looked like he was in charge. Tim wondered if he was the Don of the mafia group. Ziva dropped back from the group, and joined Tim.
"How long have they been tailing us?" She asked.
"Since we got off the plane" Tim said.
"Their catching up" Ziva said.
"Well, we'd better alert Gibbs"
"Gibbs!" Ziva called.
"What?" he responded, more intent on watching out for an ambush.
"We got company" Tim said. All three of them turned around. The five Russians were about 50 feet behind them, walking fast. They were well dressed, and had no visible sign that they had guns. Their pace quickened even more. All of the NCIS agents pulled out their weapons. But, as the Russians closed the gap, it became apparent they didn't want trouble. The leader, who Tim thought might be the Don, held out his hand and introduced himself.
"My name is Miroslav. I am the don of the Siberian-Russian Mafia, of NYC." His men also introduced themselves, all having Russian names. Gibbs shook Miroslav's hand.
"I am Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs, and this is Senior Agent Tony DiNozzo, Ziva David, Tim McGee, Jim Palmer, and Director Vance" Gibbs introduced.
"We will be watching your back" An older Mafia member, Lyov, said.
"Our job is to watch yours" Gibbs protested, but Miroslav shook his head.
"You don't know the mob you're up against" the don said. Gibbs sighed. "Fine". Lyov and the others grinned, and retreated with their leader. That was when a shot rang out. One of the Russians gripped his arm in pain. Miroslav yelled to Gibbs, "We don't have out weapons!" Another bullet whizzed by, just missing Vance. A second gun joined in the commotion. Gibbs tossed Lyov a gun. Lyov took aim, and fired 5 rounds. The one shooter stopped, obviously scared off. "It's not the Italians" Miroslav yelled. The first shooter started again, and Miroslav fell to the ground.
Miroslav: "Peace and Glory" in Russian.
Lyov: "Lion" in Russian.
