"Boss?" He called, a sickening feeling filling his gut. Tony watched as the pair of legs walked down the stairs, their black sweats the only noise in the room. When the person stepped down on the bottom step, they looked at Tony with a smile. Tony looked back at the person and asked quietly, "Who the hell are you?" The man smiled as he ran a hand through his blonde hair. "Come on Officer DiNozzo. You don't remember me?" The man began walking towards Tony, a gun held tight in his right hand. "I'm that guy that you put in prison for fifteen years back when you just started as a cop. I swore to get my revenge? Swore to steal everything you loved?" The man laughed softly and murmured, "Cameron Davids."
Tony felt his face pale as his breathing began to quicken with fear. He licked his lips nervously, but smiled as he said, "I remember you now. I always thought you were just some stupid little wannabe, but it looks like you held onto your promise. So tell me, how'd you find me? How'd you know I was here?" Cameron laughed and said, "It was easier than finding a cloud in the sky, DiNozzo! I want to all the crime scenes I knew NCIS would be at. I followed you to and from work. Your phone has had a bug in it for three weeks now, allowing me to get a feel of who you work with. Abby Sciuto, Timothy McGee, Ziva David. Oh! And let's not forget, Leroy Jethro Gibbs."
Cameron cackled widely as he moved towards Tony some more and whispered, "I've been waiting for this day ever since you put me away, DiNozzo. And once I'm done brutally murdering you, I can finally get on with my life." Tony cocked an eyebrow, asking, "You wasted your entire stupid life figuring out a way to kill me?" Cameron nodded and pointed his gun at the door. "And now, I've done it. That door is rigged with a bomb so that no one can get in or out without dying." He turned his gun back at Tony and yelled, "And Jethro has already been gutted like a deer!" This time, it was Tony's turn to smile and laugh slightly.
Cameron began to grow angry as he snapped, "Stop laughing! There's nothing funny about it, you bastard!" Tony continued to smile as he asked, "Did you honestly think that you could lie to me about Gibbs? Apparently all your spying was for nothing. If you had spyed on me as much as you said, then you would know that Gibbs doesn't die. He's almost immortal." Cameron's face became a slight red as his anger rose and he yelled, "Shut up! Just shut up! That's all you stupid cops are good at is taunting people and getting them pissed off!" Tony nodded and shrugged slightly, replying, "That's what make the NCIS agency so unique. We're good at pissing people off and catching them at the same time."Cameron finally snapped, slamming the butt of the gun into Tony's jaw.
Tony fell to the ground, clutching his jaw, as he winced in pain. He wiped blood off his jaw and looked up at Cameron. Cameron smiled as a laugh slipped out his mouth. He lifted up a small, cylinder object and Tony's eyes widened. Cameron laughed as he murmured, "There's a bomb down here, DiNozzo." Tony yelled quickly, "What the hell are you thinking?! You'll die too, you bastard!" He looked around at all of Gibbs' things and was only slightly happy about the fact tha tall of Shannon and Kelly's things were now in Gibbs room somewhere.
Cameron shrugged and grinned maliciously. "Nah, the bombs not that strong. Should only do some really permanent damage to..." he looked around the room before pointing to the wall behind Tony. "That wall. So, if I go over by the stairs, I'll be safe and sound. No damage to the upstairs at all. Just to you." Tony clenched his teeth together before finally asking loudly, "This is all because I put you int jail?!" Cameron glared at Tony and shouted, "Not only that but you ruined my company! If you hadn't put me in jail...If you had just let me finish with my conference, my company would still be around! I'd be rich and I would've had something to look forward when I got out of that hellhole!" Tony bit his lower lip slightly and watched as Cameron set the detonator down on the table where the boat rested. He walked over to Tony and looked down at him. "Now...You will listen to every word I say or else I will kill you. Understand?" Tony looked up at the door before looking back at Cameron and answering calmly, "Fine."

McGee swore as he held his phone in his right hand and tried to sit still in the car as Ziva drove. Ziva kept muttering something in Hebrew as Abby sat in the back muttering, "Ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod." McGee finally heard Gibbs answer and froze when he spoke.
"McGee, get your ass over at my house before I fire you! DiNozzos down in the basement and the doors got a damn bomb attached to it!"
"Okay, Boss, just stay there. Don't touch the door."
"I know that McGee! Now get your ass down here! Where the hell are you?!"
"We're just coming down your road, Boss."

McGee sighed as he rushed from the car shortly after it stopped, gun in hands. Abby and Ziva followed as Abby stayed behind Ziva closely. Ziva looked at McGee with worry as she whispered, "I'll take the basement window." She rushed over to the window and McGee rushed into the house with Abby. Abby ran over to Gibbs and squeezed him tightly, almost crying into his shoulder. "Gibbs, is he alright?!" Gibbs pulled Abby away as he looked her in the eys and said, "Abbs, he'll be fine once you and McGee get rid of this damn bomb!"
Abby nodded, tears dripping off her chin. "Okay, right." She took a deep breath before approaching the bomb with McGee. The two began to work on the bomb as they heard Tony in the basement being, what sounded like, beat. Ziva suddenly called McGee's phone and whispered into it, "I have no visual available yet....Please hurry, McGee. Tony is not looking good." McGee sighed as he looked at the bomb and hung up. He took a deep breath before hearing Gibbs snap, "NOW McGee!" McGee nodded and heard the man shouting something below.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I'm gonna let 'im call you, NCIS bastards!" Cameron shouted, looking up at the door. "You should stop talking so damn loud!" He laughed and slammed his right foot into Tony's ribs. Tony wheezed in pain and clutched his ribcage, trying to get oxygen back into his lungs. Cameron sighed as he smiled and took out his cellphone, looking back up at the stairs. "What's your number, Agent Gibbs?!"
Gibbs debated on simply ignoring the guy, but then shouted back, "523-9457!"
Cameron smiled as he dialed in the number and set the phone by Tony's ear. Tony wheezed as he shut his eyes and heard Gibbs yell into the phone, "DiNozzo, you're gonna be alright!" Tony's eyes snapped open and he reached a shaky hand out to grab the phone. When his fingers wrapped around it, Cameron slammed his right foot onto his hand. Tony shouted in pain as he heard two of his fingers break. He glared at Cameron and Cameron murmured, "Put it on speaker or I'll kill you." He held the detonator up and Tony felt sick to his stomach. He put the phone on speaker and said calmly, "B-Boss...I can't breath...."
Gibbs swore and Abby screamed, "Stop touching him! He has weak lungs!" McGee looked at Abby with a look that screamed, "You idiot!" and Cameron laughed as he asked, "Really now?" He slammed his foot into Tony's chest again and Tony began gasping for air. He felt tears slip out his eyes as he tried to breath, but was having no such luck.
McGee swore and quickly continued with the bomb, trying to figure out which wire connected to the ignition of the bomb. He felt sweat drip down his face and he heard Abby sobbing behind him. Gibbs shouted angrily, "McGee!" McGee snapped back, "Boss, I'm trying!"
"Well apparently you aren't trying hard enough!"
McGee bit his lower lip and thought frantically about the wires, trying his hardest to figure out how to shut it down.
Tony moaned in pain as he rolled onto his back and finally realized how sore he was. He looked at Cameron and stuttered, "I-I don't...Understand why you're...Y-You're doing this." Cameron rolled his eyes and snapped, "I already told you! You ruined my life!" Tony coughed harshly and rolled back onto his right side, breathing heavily. "That's it?" He looked up at Cameron and said softly, "If people tried to kill me because I screwed up their lives, I'd have more than you coming after me." Cameron nodded and grabbed the detonator. "I've had enough of this..." Tony's eyes grew wide and Cameron's phone suddenly rang. He answered and swallowed slightly, listening to the voice on the other end. His eyes went to the window for a split second before returning to Cameron's.
"Tony, try to get him closer to the window."
Tony looked at Cameron and asked, "Why are you standing so far away from me? Don't you want to torture me? What's the point of planning this big fricken kill if you can't enjoy it, right?" Cameron smiled and aimed his gun at Tony. "You know what, you're right. Who's on the damn phone?" Tony put the phone on speaker and Ziva began speaking:
"So, Tony, do not stand anywhere near the stairs. We have another bomb hooked up there, but do not let the man know."
Cameron looked back at the stairs and exclaimed, "What?!" He glared at Tony and stormed over to him. "SIT UP!" Tony immediately sat up, leaning his back against the wall. Cameron aimed the gun at Tony's head and Tony smiled as he said, "You couldn't make that shot if you tried." Cameron growled angrily and shot three times, missing every shot. He felt his face turn red as he grew even angrier and he screamed, "YOU BASTARD!" Cameron slammed his right foot into Tony's chest, watching as Tony gasped for air. He then grabbed Tony by his hair and faced his head towards Cameron's face, grinning like mad. Since Tony was too busy trying to suck in air, he didn't even have time to close his mouth when Cameron jammed his finger down Tony's throat. Almost instantly, Tony's gag reflex kicked in and he felt himself getting ready to vomit. Cameron moved out of the way just as Tony began to throw up harshly, taking deep, ragged breaths.
McGee finally cut a wire and looked at Abby with huge eyes. Abby looked at Gibbs with her mascarra stained face. Her mouth trembled as it hung open and Gibbs shouted angrily, "What?!" Abby began to cry again and McGee looked at Gibbs with tears in his eyes as well. "Th-The bomb was a fake, Boss...We could've gone in at any moment." Gibbs' face twisted up in anger before he slammed down the door and rushed down the stairs. In the next instant, a loud BOOM sounded just as immense pressure and heat hit Gibbs.
Gibbs had instantly dropped down into a fetal position and awaited for everything to die down. When it did, smoke hanging in the air, he heard McGee on the phone with the hospital, Abby sobbing, and Ziva screaming, "TONY!" Gibbs coughed harshy as he walked through the smoke, hearing Ziva's voice getting closer. "TONY! TONY!" Gibbs yelled out, "Ziva, where the hell are you?!" Ziva's voice rang out, "ON THE FAR SIDE OF THE WALL, GIBBS!" Gibbs ran across the basement, searching for the attacker, but not seeing anyone. Gibbs swore and rushed over to where Ziva sat, Tony's head on her lap.
Ziva was calmly rubbing Tony's head as a single tear slipped out her left eye. She looked up at Gibbs and felt her lip quiver before Gibbs rushed over to Tony. Gibbs knelt down by Tony and began calling his name with worry on his face, something he hadn't noticed. "DiNozzo! Tony, get your ass up! Tony!"
Tony's forehead was bleeding slowly along with his eyes, nose, left shoulder, and left side. Dirt covered his face, making the blood running down his face look more like a black color. His eyes were half-lidded, his breath was ragged, and he felt hot all over. The left side of his face seemed to be badly burned, along with his arms. Tony seemed to be trying to talk to Gibbs and Ziva, but was failing miserably.
Gibbs coughed harshly from the smoke and he yelled at Ziva, "Grab his left arm! We've gotta get him out of here!" Ziva nodded, helping Gibbs to pick Tony up. When they were upstairs, they made Tony lye down on his back and Gibbs looked into Tony's bloody eyes as he began saying calmly, "Stay with me, Tony. Ya got that? If you pass out on me, DiNozzo, I'll be sure to hold this to you for years!" Tony nodded slightly before finally, everything and everyone vanished from view.

Well, this is the end of this chapter guys. I am now beginning on chapter 5 and hoping to return everyone back to the NCIS building. The next chapter will be all about Ziva and Tony, so be prepared. XD Also, I'm sorry I sort of copied one of the NCIS episodes by making Tony get blown up. I know that in the 3rd season, Gibbs gets blown up and that's kinda where I stole the idea from, so I apologize if anyone noticed that. And again, I do apologize for the absolutely horrible motive that all of my criminals have. I'm planning on making my people's motive a lot better, but I'm not sure where that'll go. Haha. Once more I thank you all for the reviews and the support and once more I apologize for the stupid motives, and the bit of copying I did. THANK YOU ALL!!!! Now I must simply get to the part where the evil guy comes back. No worries guys, I will tell you who the man is soon. Muhahahahahah! XD
