I don't own.

Gibbs paced back and forth in the autopsy room, Ducky watching him.

"Are you alright, Jethro?" he asked finally.

"No, Duck! I'm not! Two of my Agents are running around somewhere with wanted terrorists. Two of my Agents are wanted terrorists." he shook his head angerly. "And as far as I can tell, they aren't terrorists. Some might be criminals, and bad ones at that, but they sure as hell aren't terrorists."

"Jethro, they killed federal agents, one held a gun to Abby-"

"A gun that wasn't loaded."

"-And if what you say is true, what these people can do, maybe it is best if they are captured." Ducky finished.

"Even Ziva and Tony? Tony can't even do anything." Gibbs questioned.

"I meant the ones with dangerous powers." Ducky explained.

"She can make people feel her pain. That has the potential for being dangerous."

Ducky watched Gibbs as he stopped pacing and shook his head. "You're worried, aren't you, Jethro?" he asked finally.

"This Petrelli, he wants to end this program. This rounding up of these people, dangerous or not. But this Danko, he's different. Doesn't see them as people. He see's them as animals. Petrelli fired him, so now he doesn't have to follow the governments rules on capturing them."

"You think he might go after them himself?" Ducky asked.

"I'm sure he will. Its just a matter of how many he kills before they stop him. If it hasn't happened already." Gibbs explained.

"You're worried he might hurt Tony or Ziva?"

"Or someone else. Duck, a lot of these people are just kids. A lot have families. They're all people."

Ducky nodded. "Then I suppose you have to hope he doesn't find them."

Line.

"Claire?"

Claire turned at the sound of her name being called. "Oh, hey, Amanda." she greeted as she saw the girl approaching.

"I have to talk to you about Gabriel." she said.

"Okay..."

"I can't go with you. So neither can my mom."

"I know." Claire told her, confused.

Amanda sighed, annoyed that Claire wasn't understanding what she needed to tell her. "Why do you think Gabriel hasn't killed everyone here?" she asked.

"I have no idea."

"Having my mom with him, it reminds him of who he is. Of the person she saw him as."

Claire raised an eyebrow. "And who was that, exactly?"

"A good person. A person that went to her mothers funeral with her, that saved her life, that gave her a place to live, that stood by her when she got pregnant young. A person that she loved with all her heart." Amanda swallowed. "The last time she saw him was the day Brian Davis died. She came to see him an hour before he came. She got into a huge fight with him. Told him that he shouldn't expect to see her ever again. That he wasn't special." she shook her head. "Between you and me, I think that was the real reason he let the hunger take over."

"What was your mother to him?" Claire asked quietly.

"When he was a kid, she was his protector. He got bullied a lot, and she could knock out a guy twice her ages teeth. When they got older, they were best friends. After he killed her dad- and saved her life, by the way- they started going out.

"Not long after that, she started disappearing for weeks at a time. When she would come back, they would still be together. But after a time, she started disappearing for months. Then she got pregnant. He watched her constantly for the entire nine months. Would take her to his shop during the day, never let her out of his sight.

"A month after I was born, he woke up and we weren't there. My mom had taken off. She didn't come back for a year. After that, she would come back to New York about twice a year. She would call him every month or so. It makes it hard to actually be involved with someone. Every time she came to see him, though, he tried to stop her from leaving. Never worked."

"That's sad." Claire commented.

"My point is, I wont be there so my mom wont be there so she wont be able to remind him who he is."

Claire took a few seconds until it sunk in. "You think he might go back to killing people uncontrollably?"

Amanda nodded. "I hope not. But I think its a possibility. A very likely possibility."

Claire shook her head. "Great. That's all I need. I'm going to be surrounded by the agents that we've been hiding from, and my backup might go psychotic on me."

"At least you can't get hurt."

"Can't even feel pain."

Amanda looked at her. "You can't feel pain? Makes sense. The only purpose of pain is to let us know when we're hurt, so we don't hurt ourselves worse. You can't hurt yourself, so..." she trailed off.

Claire stared at her, her eyes wide. "I stopped feeling it after Sylar attacked me. Sawed off the top of my head. It- it hurt worse than anything. And that's saying something." she shook her head slowly. "No one- no one has ever explained to me why."

"Well, that's kind of dumb. Its obviously been bothering you."

"I thought I wasn't human." she said quietly.

"There are normal people that don't have powers that can't feel pain. Your body just decided you didn't need to feel pain anymore." Amanda shrugged. "But the point is, if he loses control, you'll need something to stop him, help him remember who he is."

Claire nodded. "So, what? Do I tell him to think about your mom?" she asked doubtingly.

Amanda shook her head. "No. What you'll tell him is," she took in a deep breath. "Is that he's my father."

Wow! I don't think I kept that a very good secret. At least one person reading this knew, so, I guess I need to work on not being so obvious. Anyways, I hope this was okay. I've been suffering from a horrible disease lately called writers block.
