Chapter 6
Callen's POV.
It's Monday, and a workday. It means I can see her again. Her sunny smile, her pale skin, her beautiful green eyes. She's not my partner anymore -Nate's back. Well, he's meant to be.
She struts in at nine o' clock, on the dot. She's wearing a black and red plaid shirt, black jeans, with her hair in a messy side braid. I've never been one to notice women's hair or clothes, but she pulls off her effortless attire perfectly.
"Morning Kensi, Deeks, Sam, Callen."
I stop myself from smiling when she says my name. It's almost like, every time she opens that beautiful mouth of hers, I want to smile. Her voice is just that amazing -everything about her is amazing.
"Morning." everyone says to her.
"So, my new partner, is he in yet?"
"Nope, any minute now." Kensi said.
Seconds later, a familiar voice joins the group conversation. "Morning, everybody."
"Nate!" Kensi says, hugging him.
"Welcome home, buddy." I say to Nate, shaking his hand.
"Good to see you man." Deeks says.
"Nate." says Sam.
"You must be my new partner," Nate says to A.J, extending his hand, "Nate Getz."
"A.J Connors," she says, shaking his hand, "I've heard great things about you."
"And I, you," Nate says, "born in Seattle, Washington, eldest of 6, 3 brothers, 2 sisters, achieved a BA in forensic science from California State University, and an M.D in forensic pathology from Boston University, you were recruited to the FBI straight out of college, and were stationed in Quantico for the last 2 years before you became an NCIS agent last week."
"You read my file." A.J says, after listening to her educational history.
"I have to know my partner."
She smiles that brilliant smile again.
I have to admit, I'm quite surprised at her choice of education. Forensics? I would have thought she studied, well something else, but I never suspected forensics.
"Wait, forensic pathology?" Deeks says, clearly as surprised as I am.
"Yeah. I'm a qualified Medical Examiner." she says, smiling.
The sound of Eric whistling interrupts our reunion with Nate.
"Nate! Good to see you man!" Eric shouts down to us. "Uh, we have a high-profile case."
Upon entering Ops, Assistant Director Granger is standing with Hetty.
"Nell, Director Vance, please." Hetty says to Nell. "Welcome back, Mr. Getz."
Nate nods.
This case must be bad, if Granger is here and Director Vance is on the line.
"Hetty." The Director's voice fills the room.
"Director." Hetty replies.
"Nell, start the briefing." Vance says.
"Yes, Director. This is Hasim Nasir, a bomb expert based in Washington," Nell began as she pulled up a picture of this man, "yesterday evening, a warehouse where Nasir had been living exploded. He was killed instantly. When the crime scene had been processed, the cause of the explosion was found to be a faulty gas line. Arson was ruled out. However, once the body had been autopsied, it was found that he did not die from the explosion. He was murdered. The Washington team investigating this homicide found that Nasir may have been killed by a client, as they found bomb making materials in the warehouse, and e-mails detailing a transaction between Nasir and an unknown party." Nell paused, "Nasir was found to have been wired two hundred thousand dollars the day before he was killed. The money came from a shell corporation known to be a front for transactions originating from a home-grown terrorist cell, based out of New York. We know that this cell was working with Al Qaeda to detonate a bomb in Los Angeles, within 72 hours."
"We received this message from the cell, claiming responsibility for the murder of Nasir." Eric said as he pulled up the email sent to the Washington field office.
The murder of Hasim Nasir is the first of many.
Consider this a warning, a bomb will go off in the City of Angels within 72 hours.
"The infidels will fall at the hands of the righteous"
"Mr. Callen, you and your team have less than 48 hours to stop a terrorist attack on U.S soil. Agents Gibbs and Dinozzo are on their way to assist your team." Hetty says to me. "They should be here within the hour."
"Gibbs?" I say.
"Yes, his team were the team that investigated this man's murder."
"Agent Callen," The Director says, "you and your team have been granted temporary immunity to get these sons-of-bitches. Use any means necessary."
"Yes, Director."
"Agent Callen. Our main priority is to find the cell and the target of the cell. Is that clear?"
"Crystal."
Please R&R!
