CHAPTER 2
My human was very excited today! He has to leave me for a few days. Not the first that happened, nor will it be the last, I know, but this time was special. He told me he had to go to Stillwater, Pennsylvania. I know, it didn't ring any bell either to me, but he told me that's where Bossman grew up! Yep, they have to investigate a murder in his hometown and that got my Tony all excited. I don't really like to be left alone of course but he always has tons of things to tell me when he gets back and I'm sure this time will be no different!
Yep, I was right, it was no different. Well, maybe it was, cause he was bouncing even more than usual! I'm not kidding! He got to meet Bossman's dad. He even gave him a sweater. I think my Human fell in love. Not like that! Maybe he wished Jackson, that's Bossman's dad's name, was his own dad. He told me he was really nice and mischievous but sure could have a temper. Actually, except for the blue eyes and being strong headed, father and son don't really look alike … at first. You can see how they care though, and not just for each other, although Gibbs tries to hide it. I think my Tony is very observant. I would like to meet this Jackson guy someday, and Bossman, and Probie, and Ninja, and of course Abby, Duckman and the Autopsy Gremlin to be able to forge my own opinion of them but from what I hear day in and day out, it's not always pretty. Well, that depends on whom we're talking about of course but I'd still love to meet them. My guess is that I'll meet the Gremlin first. He's the less judgmental of all and was a great help during the "Mexico Interlude" as we shall speak of it. Hey, those are his words, not mine! Anyway, back to Stillwater. I think my Tony made a new friend in Jackson. He told me they exchanged phone numbers, and not just so he could update the old man on his son's welfare or latest vendetta. Yep, going there was definitely good for him. I bet he'll keep smiling and talking to me about this trip for days!
I was wrong. *deep sigh* The first one from the team who ever laid foot to my Human's "Sanctuary" was Ninja, not Autopsy Gremlin. Damn, so soon after his father's fiasco here, he didn't need that. I guess it's not really a Sanctuary anymore. He should invite the Gremlin, watch a few James Bond movies together and play some basketball afterwards. I don't know, he seems so lost and angry that she came to his place. Granted he invited her, kinda, but he didn't really want to, he told me so, and I could really see it. Gremlin would be nice, I'm sure of it. He wouldn't ask questions. I know I would like him if I ever met him. May be I should suggest it to my Human. I don't know how I'll do it, but I'll make him listen to me. I promise, or my name is not Kate anymore!
