Okay, a bit more NCIS so far and a bit more of Alex's past returning...actually I didn't want Julius to be dead in this story but I already took Yassen and Ari for alive so I couldn't get around that Alex killed Julius.

Focus is still on Alex/ NCIS and a bit (!) Hannah Montana...perhaps there'll come more to justify the M-rating ;)

Now also the time is determined: Three years after Ari shot Kate and two years after Alex shot Julius.

Chapter 2

It was a dark night and already twelve o'clock midnight. Katelyn was inside a huge office tower in San Francisco. Dead bodies lay scattered on the floor and she dropped her submachine gun. It was empty and should be found as evidence.

There were no fingerprints on there, she wore gloves. Another mission for Mossad successfully completed. She went down the stairways, she hated elevators. Down in first floor she activated the alarm system. The alarm went off. She knew that Police would be soon here. She jumped onto the red and white motorcycle of her Dad and drove home where he already expected her.

'Hey, honey', Alex said and kissed his girlfriend Katelyn.

'I'm gonna be late for Maths', she said smilingly and went away. Alex sighed. He had never told her the truth about him and he didn't know that she already knew. He looked her disappearing in a classroom. She was sixteen, tall for a young girl, very strong, had black hair and black eyes. And very great tits. Sometimes Alex did not know what she felt, she just closed herself to him sometimes. He just loved her and he needed her. She was so nice to him and after all what he had been through he had become fragile and needed someone who cared about him. Although they knew each other for half a year now and have been together for three months already, he hasn't been at her house yet because they always have been at his, there they had more privacy. He knew that she was half Israeli and half American and that her mother had died three years ago.

But he did not know that her father was an Israeli agent working for Mossad and also wanted by NCIS for killing one of their team members. However, they still lived here under their real name, Haswari, protected by Israeli government and being agents still doing work for Mossad from time to time. Eli had wanted Ari out of sight for a little while, since Ziva had left Mossad to work for the Americans. Ari had never understood his half-sister. He could have never trusted her. That had been the reason why he and his daughter had directly fled to the Western Coast after he had shot sweet Caitlin. His daughter was the only person who knew what feelings he had had toward this NCIS agent.

Finally, the school bell rang and Alex Rider backed his school stuff as fast in his bag as he could. Together with Katelyn he left the building. Alex felt free when he was outside and he had tried to forget what happened. But he was nearly shocked to death when he saw a known face in the crowd among all the parents waiting for their children. Alan Blunt himself. He had retired over two years ago and Alex had left him and his work with deepest hatred and with the knowledge to never return again.

'See you this afternoon', he murmured to his girlfriend, kissed her and left her to walk to Mr. Blunt. 'What was this?', Miley asked and stepped next to Katelyn. She watched her boyfriend walking away and saw his destination. She sighed.

'I think Alex is in trouble', she said and smiled at Miley. 'Do we see us this afternoon? For bothering Rico a bit?', she asked. 'When I get done this loads of homework', Miley moaned and thought for a while. 'Oh, no. Hannah has to prepare for her next show in TV for next Saturday. I already visit the studios today. I'm sorry', she apologized.

'Doesn't matter', Kate said.

'I think it would also be better for me to start learning for Spanish exam on Friday', she said and walked down the stairway.

She looked around for Alex. She saw him just stepping into a black car, together with Mr. Blunt entering behind him. Her eyes met with those of Mr. Blunt for a moment. And just in that moment she knew, that he knew who she really was. Of course, she knew him because she had read everything about Alex and his past but it seems that she wasn't unknown to him either.

'What do you want from me?', Alex asked unfriendly.

'Nice to see you again, Alex. You've become older', Mr. Blunt said and sat down opposite to him in the big car. Alex noticed Mrs. Jones next to him. 'We missed you', she said silently.

'I don't think so', Alex responded. 'You two would be the first people to cheer when I am dead', he said. He had tried to forget his past but being remembered to it and how they had abused him made him more aggressive. All in all, he had become more aggressive and colder after killing Julius Grief. He never could repress the moment when he had pulled the trigger and saw himself dying. His dreams remembered him to these very last moments every night. 'How's school, Alex?', Mr. Blunt asked ignoring Alex's aggressive response.

'Difficult.'

'Last year. Do you already know what to do after that?'

'What do you want from me?', Alex asked harshly. He never wanted them to enter his life any more again.

'Your help', Mrs. Jones said. 'We need to track down a dangerous terrorist.'

'Then do it alone! And leave me out of this car', Alex said looking to the driver who didn't react. 'We can't. You're already involved', Mr. Blunt said. Alex looked up. He hadn't been involved in anything dangerous for nearly two years now.

'Whatever you're talking about, I'm not. I'm having a quiet and quite good and not dangerous life here', he said confused. 'At least I do have more countable friends here', he added.

'Are you sure?', Mrs. Jones asked. 'About your friends, I mean', she said.

Alex looked puzzled. He trusted each of them with his whole life. 'Yes.'

Mrs. Jones took a file from next to her and handed it to Alex. He opened it and saw a large picture of a man. He was tall, about 40 years old, had brown hair and brown eyes, wore a red and white leather suit and stood next to a motorcycle.

'He is an Al Qaeda terrorist…or a Mossad agent. We are not sure', Alan Blunt explained. 'He killed a lot of man and I think he was involved in a mass murder in San Francisco last Monday. He also killed a federal agent of NCIS in Washington three years ago. He is Israeli.' Alex nodded and looked at the picture. He had never seen this man before.

'What's his name?', he asked innocently.

'Ari Haswari', Mrs. Jones said coldly. Alex looked up, shocked.
