Chapter 7 is here. Chapter 8 will be called "Mafia vs. Mafia"
Chapter 7: Siege
Bullets pelted by, right in front of Ziva, through a window. Shouts and yells came from around the building. Lyov ran by, carrying a submachine gun, and he aimed out a broken window, and let loose. Ziva joined him, and they shot away. A yell from one of the Russians told Ziva he had been hit. Lyov fired angrily, covering his friend. With the Italians making their move, it was too dangerous to stay outside. Everyone retreated, taking up positions inside the building. Ziva heard Miroslav say something to Gibbs, and she thought she heard one of the Italians yelling. More bullets flew through the air. She fired back, trying not to leave herself exposed.
After a few more minutes of back and forth gunfire, the shooting stopped. Tim stepped outside, and was promptly forced back in by a submachine gun firing at him. Ziva sighed. Miroslav had disappeared, and she figured the don was down with Lyov, guarding the main entrance. Gibbs stepped by Ziva, and said "We'd better stay alert". She nodded, and Gibbs moved on.
MAFIA***MAFIA
Further down the hallway, Tim was also watching. He figured the Italians would make their big move soon. He gathered his clips of ammo, and gritted his teeth. In a few minutes, the firing started again. Tim ducked as bullets flew through the broken window. The Russians retaliated, firing back. Tim added his own gun to the shootout. About a minute later, the firing stopped. This went on for about 4 hours. The Italians would fire for 1-2 minutes, than wait about 20 minutes, shooting at anyone outside of the building. Tim grew nervous, wondering when they would try to get in.
MAFIA***MAFIA
As it grew dark out, Ziva wondered if the Italians would leave. Her question was promptly answered by another burst of bullets. Gibbs came to check on her again, and she asked if he had seen Miroslav. He said no.
Eventually, the firing stopped all together. Ziva fell asleep, exhausted from the day's events. She didn't know that Miroslav was close by, keeping an eye on her. When she woke up, her watch read 2 A.M. Tim came to her, and said,
"I think I'll try to run for it, call for backup from DC."
"Tim, it's too dangerous" Ziva replied. Tim shook his head.
"The whole job is dangerous."
"Tim, don't…" He got up, and left. She sighed.
MAFIA***MAFIA
About a half hour later, Ziva spotted Tim, coming out of the door. He looked around nervously. Lyov was with him, and he gave Tim his submachine gun, and an extra clip. Tim nodded to Lyov, and began to jog off, gun trained. He made it halfway to where the shooting has been coming from, and then he stopped, and looked around. Not a sound. He continued on, gun at the ready.
Ziva saw a flash, bright in the darkness. She heard one gunshot, and saw Tim fall to the ground, clutching his head.
"TIM!" She screamed.
