"Marsha. Marsha wake up." Tony said shaking his daughter. "Huh?" she said waking up. She was groggy so she looked at the time. "Crap I'm late." She said waking up and raced for the elevator and calling it. "Whoa, whoa, whoa you aren't going anywhere." Tony said picking her up and going to the bullpen where he set her down. "I have a job to do." " Well I do to and right now it's to keep you safe." "Well then can I at least make a few calls?" "To?"
"My friends and then work." "Why your friends." "So they won't worry?" The elevators opened and the two were still arguing. "You can't call your friends." "And why not?" "Cause we are right here." Marsha turned around to see all five of them there with Ziva and McGee bringing up the rear. "What are you guys doing here?" "We were hoping you could tell us." Ashlee answered.
"Well I'm just glad your okay. How are you holding up?" Kellie asked giving Marsha a bear hug. "They told you?" The boys and Ashlee nodded their heads. "Okay and Kellie if you don't stop hugging me I will pass out." Kellie let her go. As Marsha took a step backwards and she tripped over Talto. "Wow Tony she's just as clumsy as you." Ziva said heading for her desk.
"Well it's good to know she inherttited something from me." Tony retorted while Ben helped Marsha up. "Why is Ben always the one to help me get off the floor?" "Because I am a gentleman." Ben said kissing her hand. "Yeah right." And all of them cracked up with laughter. Gibbs came into the bullpen to see them all laughing. " How did you all meet anyway?" McGee asked trying to figure out how so many people with different personalities could be so close.
"Well Ashlee and I have been friends since the fourth grade. In sixth grade we became friends with Kellie. That same year Ashlee began to date Travis. So we became friends with him and Zack. This year Travis's foster parents died so he moved in with Ben and his older brother." Marsha explained. "Nice summery." Zack commented. "Better than one I could have come up with." Ashlee added.
"So is there anything fun to do around here?" Travis asked slinging his arm around Ashlee's shoulder. "Well we could hang in Abby's lab but she's probably still mad at me." "What did you do?" they asked. 'I'll tell you later or at least after I try to pull the security camera footage." "So is there anything we can do?" Travis repeated.
"Well there is a pool." Gibbs stated getting annoyed with the teens banter. "Yeah we could if we had swimsuits." "David. Dinozzo." "Yeah boss." "Get these kids swimsuits." "On it boss. Lets go." The kids shrugged and followed the agents to the elevator
At the Pool
"Where are the girls?" Tony asked coming out of the changing rooms. "Still changing." Travis said. Ben was grinning like an idiot. "What are you so happy about?" Zack asked. "Oh nothing."
Flashback
"Ben get over here." "What do you want Marsha?" 'It's about Ziva and Tony. You got to help me hook them up. "Yeah sure but how can you tell they're into each other?" "Same way I could tell about Ashlee and Travis. Now I need you to tell me," She said grabbing his arm, "which swimsuit would get my dad attracted to her?"
End of Flashback
"Oh look here the come." Ben stated. Marsha came out first followed by Kellie. Marsha wore a rainbow-striped bikini. Kellie wore a pink floral tankini. Ashlee ran out wearing a black two-piece with a skull on her heart.
"Ziva get out here." Marsha yelled into the girl's changing room. "No I'm not coming out especially in this." The girls looked at each other and nodded. "Okay but you asked for it." The girl's ran in and grabbed her and through her out. Tony's mouth dropped open when he saw her.
Ziva wore an olive green colored two-piece. "Wow Ziva you look great." He felt a slap on the back of his head. "Thanks but I fell like a baboon and that was Marsha." He glared at Marsha "The term is buffoon Zeevah." "Last one in is a rotten egg." Marsha said jumping in. "No Fair." The other's yelled jumping in.
When they surfaced Kellie, Ashlee, Travis, and Zack began to play while Ben swam over to Marsha. He looked over at Tony to see he was completely soaked and Ziva didn't have a drop of water on her. "What happened?"
"Well when you all jumped in you created something like a tidal wave. So he pulled Ziva into a hug and turned so he was in between her and the water." "The plan is working." "Yep." They high fived one another. After a while they started a game of chicken.
(That's where all the girls get on top of the guys shoulders.)
Ashlee, Travis, Kellie, and Zack went down in the first five minutes. It took another five minutes for someone to win. "I'm getting really tired of losing to you Marsha." Ziva said coming out of the water in front of Tony.
"Oh come on you've only lost to me twice. Don't forget you lost to Ben too." Marsha said still atop Ben's shoulders. "Yeah," Ben said before losing his footing, "whoa." He and Marsha went under. Everyone began laughing as the pair came up sputtering. "Come on I think it's time to go." Ziva said getting out.
Back in the Bullpen
"Hey boss we're back." "Get your gear we got another one." "Should we bring the kids?" "No none of them want to see this." And the doors closed leaving the kids in the bullpen.
Down in Forensics
"Hey Abb's." Marsha said coming in with her friends. "Oh hey Marsha." "Do you know a place where we could trace calls from?" "Yeah at McGee's desk." "Thanks and just to make sure are you still mad at me?" "No." "So you two are together?" "That's for me to know and for you to find out." "I'll take that as a yes." Marsha said before following her friends back into the elevator. "One down two to go." Marsha said when the elevator was closed.
"Marsha what are you doing?" Kellie asked. "Figuring out who was murdered." Marsha said hacking into McGee's computer. "Got it now to call Ziva." She said pulling out a cell. "Whose cell?" "Tony's." "Picked his pocket?" "Yep." She placed the call and all six watched the screen intently. The minute Ziva picked up they were able to pinpoint the location. Marsha hung up the phone. "Ben isn't that your house?" "Yeah it is."
At the crime scene
Ziva looked at the caller ID. "Tony your standing five feet away from me why did you call me?" "I didn't my phone is missing." Tony said checking his pockets. They both looked at each other "Marsha." "Well now they know there's no point in hiding it." Ziva said taking photos of the Ben's older brother.
"You two go check out the boy's room." Gibbs ordered. They walked down the hall and opened the door. "Boss you should see this." Tony hollered. "What the hell." Gibbs said looking inside the boy's room. On the floor was a message spelled in black gunk. It said BRING ME THE KIDS OR THEIR WILL BE MORE!!! There was a file near by containing pictures of all six teens. "Were dealing with a serial killer." Gibbs said exiting the room.
Back at NCIS
They came back about an hour later. They came up to see the Kellie and Ashlee banging on the other elevator. The boys were in the bullpen. Tony pointed to the elevator. "Marsha shut off the elevator with herself inside." Zack explained. "Good God." "Nice job it's your second day as a parent and your still screwing up." Ziva said. "This is not my fault." "Fine then Ill go talk to her." "I don't care what you do Ziva just get her out of that elevator."
"Sure thing." She shooed the girls away from the door "Marsha will you please open up the elevator?" "Are they still there." "No." Marsha turned the elevator back on and let Ziva in before shutting it off again. Ziva sat down beside Marsha. "Why are you doing in here exactly?" "Hiding from the world, from Ben." "Why would you?" "Well how would you feel if you knew you were the cause of someone's death especially someone you love. And now because of me Ben's only living relative is now dead." Marsha had turned on the elevator while she was yelling and ran out.
She went past the bullpen tears streaming down her face everyone saw her. The minute Tony saw Ziva he asked, "What did you do to my kid Zee?" "Nothing. She blames herself for the deaths. She's hiding something." Ben and the other's hear this. So while Ben went to find Marsha the others went to pay Abby a visit.
Marsha was in the stairwell when Ben found her. "There you are." He said hugging her. "What do you want?" she asked not looking at him. "To tell you it's not your fault and your not alone." Her tears came back and Ben held her tight. When she finished she looked up and their lips met.
I need help I've got huge writers block and can't think of what to do next any ideas would be nice
