Wow loving all the reviews, thanks everyone, please keep them all coming.

Hope you like thing chapter.

Chapter 9 –

Dayan was talking to another Israeli man dressed just as smartly as he was, they were talking about a ship, a bomb and NCIS 'it must be destroyed' Dayan said 'of course' the other man said 'but you can't do it you have a price on your head so high you cant even leave this place, why did you take this child in the first place?'

Dayan scowled 'she is going to help me get some 20 year old revenge' his friend shook his head 'seriously it is not healthy to carry grudges for so long' 'well soon I will have fulfilled my fathers dying wish and I will not have to carry the grudge any longer because she will finally be dead'

His companion frowned 'what does this girl have to do with Ziva David?' he asked 'everything' Dayan responded 'she is her daughter' his friend shook his head again 'wow you really are determined to get her aren't you if you kidnap her daughter' Dayan just smiled.

At that moment the guards all came running in 'well' Dayan snapped 'where is she what is that noise for' the guards all looked at each other uncomfortably 'um well she escaped' one of them mumbled 'she proper attacked us and just ran, we put guards on the doors and she shouldn't have been able to make it out in time but she cant be found in the building sir' Dayan stared at them and Tali could almost see him swelling up with rage

Dayan began to scream at his staff, 'how could you be so stupid, she is the daughter of Ziva David of course she wasn't just going to come quietly' the guard didn't say anything, they just hung their heads in shame 'you had better bring her back or else it will be you heads' he shouted they all nodded and then turned and left.

Dayan sighed and sat in his chair rubbing his temples growling a stream of abuse at Tali who shifted nervously, she hoped her Uncle Gibbs would get here soon, she didn't know what to do, they would be combing the outside of this place by now with guns by now, she wasn't going to be able to just drop out of the vents and run, they would gun her down.

Dayan companion moved forward, 'maybe there is a way we can get your revenge and complete our mission together Elead' Dayan stared at him, 'what do you have in mind' he asked and they bent their heads together and began to plot. Tali leaned away from the hole her hand over her mouth to muffle her loud and fast breathing, they were going to blow up a marine boat and try and kill her mother at the same time, and if her mother was on the ship then her whole family would be on the ship, trying to find the bomb, they would all be killed.

She had to get out of here and warn everyone, but she didn't have much evidence either, just two men plotting, she didn't know when or what ship they were targeting. She just had them planning.

And she had no idea who this other man was so that wouldn't be much help either.

She let out a tiny groan and then began to slide forward carefully round the vent and on looking desperately round for the great outdoors, she passed over many more vents and in each one she saw the guars desperately turning the room upside down in search of her. She eventually realised how big and confusing this network of vents was, eventually she curled up crying softly and waited for a miracle

XOXOXOXO

Gibbs drove at a speed to rival Ziva's but for once Tony didn't care, he wanted him to go even faster, his daughter was in danger and he wanted to get to her so he could fulfil his duty as a father and protect her, Gibbs pulled out his phone and told him to call McGee, Tony did so putting it on speaker, 'yeah boss' the agent called 'Probie it's me where are we going' 'hey Tony just completed the scan, tracking your location, oh you need to go west at the next turning, Gibbs wrenched the steering wheel round sending the car spinning round gown the turning that they had already been upon when McGee told them, ignoring the blaring of horns Gibbs shouted 'where now McGee' 'I'm sending the directions to you phone boss' 'got them' Tony shouted'

Suddenly from the other end of the phone Ziva cried 'they are asking for the conference Gibbs' 'accept it and let us hear what they want to say now, maybe if we are lucky we will catch them in the act' there was a brief silence on the other end and then some Hebrew to which Ziva replied also in Hebrew. Then they switched to English 'well Ziva are you going to come to a meeting' 'I want to see my daughter' Ziva demanded 'no can do my dear' 'why not' Ziva asked 'because my dear your daughter was killed after she tried to escape, my men gunned her down when they could not catch her' Tony felt as though his whole world had just been crushed, no it couldn't be possible, Tali couldn't be dead, 'no she wasn't dead she cant be' he thought wildly on the other end of the phone he heard Ziva cry out 'no' and desperately whished he was there with her to comfort her and make sure that nothing would happen to her. He glanced sideways at Gibbs and saw that his boss looked as crushed and broken as he felt, he realised that it must be like losing Kelly again for him, and he now understood his bosses pain.

Just then Dayan began to speak again 'very well if you will not agree to a meeting I will have to just tell you what I have done and not tell you how to stop it' Ziva sounded like she was crying but she carried on with the meeting 'what have you done' 'on the ship the Defender, I have planted a bomb big enough to destroy it and the rest of the ships surrounding it' everyone gasped 'it is going to blow in 5 hours so I suggest you forget about your daughter and get your sorry little butts down to the docks and find that bomb, happy hunting'

Tony and Gibbs heard the sound of the connection being lost and Gibbs leapt into action 'Ziva McGee you get down to the docks now, if that bomb it as big as he says it is a lot of people are going to die if we don't stop that bomb, Ziva I am so sorry about Tali, and I know we are all going to miss her, but right now we have to stop more innocent people dying' there was silence and then Ziva responded 'yes Gibbs, just promise me if he is still there don't kill him, I want to hurt him the same way I hurt his father' Gibbs answered carefully 'we will bring him into interrogation Ziver I promise'. And with that Ziva hung up.

XOXOXOXOXO

Tali had been hiding above the conference room when she had heard Dayan tell her mother that she was dead, and she wanted nothing more that to jump out and she tell her mother that she was alive, she could see how her mother crumpled after she had heard that, she felt so angry at Dayan, she watched him hang up and then he laughed, 'well I think she believed me' his companion laughed too 'you are certain that you hid it well so they wont find it' 'relax' Dayan said 'no one is going to look in an oil drum filled with oil for a bomb, it is only a small bomb but with that much fuel around it, it will certainly be big' 'and it is rigged to explode in 4 hours not 5 so they will all still be on the ship right'

Tali reeled away ok now she really had to get out of here, she noticed that they were packing up, they were leaving, running, if her Uncle Gibbs was coming he had better arrive soon.

They left 10 minutes later and Tali climbed out of the vents and ran, she had to get to Norfolk and fast, to warn her family that unless they all abandoned ship, they were all going to die.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Gibbs' car came screeching to a stop in front of the warehouse where McGee said Tali had been held, they both leapt out of the car and ran to the building bursting down the door and splitting up, checking every room 'clear' Gibbs called but didn't hear Tony respond he found his agent standing in the doorway to a secure looking room with bars on the window and a tiny hard looking bed, Tony moved into the room and picked something up off of the bed, Tali's favourite jumper, stained in blood, Gibbs clapped him on the shoulder, 'she wouldn't want you to pine for her Tony, she would want you to go save lives'.

Tony nodded and they left after checking the rest of the rooms.

Hope you like it, next time, will they be able to find/stop the bomb, will Tali ever see her family again.

PLEASE let me know what you think, I will update as quickly as it is humanly possible if I get a lot of reviews, but I do want to do the next chapter just right

Thanks
