Really sorry about the delay - mum took my computer again. Fanfiction has now been blocked at school so I am stuck. Sorry if this is short and crap. Thank you sooooo much for all the reviews in the last chapter. This chapter is for Penny (Penelope Louise) who writes brilliant fanfics and has been sooo patient. Also because she had two major exams yesterday and is probably doing her homework and sulking now. Please review!
"What?" asked Ziva as Mcgee, Tony and Gibbs stared at her.
Gibbs was the first to recover. "You weren't supposed to knock them out!" he moaned, "The Director is going to give me hell!"
"They will be fine." sighed Ziva, "They will just have a tiny headache. That is all."
Gibbs sighed before turning to Mcgee. "What did Abby want?" he asked.
"She didn't say." said Mcgee as he led the trio to the elevator. He pressed the down the button. The lift doors soon opened and they were almost knocked over by the volume of Abby's music.
"TURN IT DOWN ABS!!!!" yelled Gibbs over Android Lust's Hole Solution.
Abby sighed and obediently turned it down.
"Hey Energizer Abby!" said Tony.
Abby sighed again. "You have been talking to the guys in the mail room again, haven't you." she moaned.
"What did you want Abs?" asked Gibbs impatiently. He was wasting the time he could have been spending with his daughter.
"There were two guys in the room." she announced. Her face seemed to harden and she looked upset.
"Isn't that a good thing?" asked Tony.
"Not if he raped Lizzie as well and I can't find his name through fingerprints or DNA." scowled Abby.
Gibbs' face turned to stone. Mcgee saw the look on his face and stepped up to the spare computer and started typing. Ziva puled out her knife and slammed it into the wooden frame of one of Abby's counters.
"Hey!" moaned Abby.
"Sorry." said Ziva as she grabbed her knife. She hadn't meant to stab the counter. She did it without thinking. Ziva stalked out of the lab. She was closely followed by Gibbs and Tony.
When they arrived in at the bullpen Ziva and Tony obediently stepped up to their desks and started walking. Gibbs stormed straight to the elevator.
He quickly drove to the hospital. He broke five speed limits and executed an illegal u turn. When he got to the hospital he stormed straight to Lizzie's room. Jenny stood outside of the door and looked slightly more relaxed than the last tme Gibbs saw her. She was leaning against teh wall and she held a strong cup of coffee in her hand.
"She is awake." she told Gibbs as he stepped up to the door.
"Good." said Gibbs as he turned the doorknob, "We need some answers."
He was slightly shocked at the small frail figure in the corner of the bed.
The scar on Lizzie's cheek had been stitched up. The start, black thread contrasted against her chalky, pale skin. One of her eyes was black. She looked shocked and scared.
"Lizzie?" asked Gibbs.
Lizzie nodded slightly.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Yeah." said Lizzie quietly.
"I need some answers." he told her. "You were raped, yes?"
Lizzie nodded.
"By two guys?" asked Gibbs.
Lizzie nodded.
"Do you know their names?" asked Gibbs.
"Bruce and Jack Porter." choked Lizzie. She was on the verge of tears. She was also mad at herself. Why couldn't she stop remembering?, she asked herself over and over again.
Gibbs nodded. Jenny glared at him. Why didn't she know this?
"Have they done a rape kit yet?" Jenny asked Lizzie.
Lizzie shook her head.
"You need one." said Jenny gently.
She hugged Lizzie and glanced up at Gibbs. He nodded – his questioning was finished. He had all the answers he needed. He got up and left them. As he walked out of the door and glanced back. He didn't see his boss and his child. He saw a mother and a child, his lover and his child.
When he was outside the door he was met by a figure with grey hair. He swore under his breath.
"Fornell." he said out loud.
"Gibbs." said Fornell.
"Why are you here?" Gibbs scowled.
"We think we made a breakthrough." said Fornell.
"Really?" asked Gibbs in amazement. He had never expected the FBI to get anywhere.
"Nah." said Fornell. "I just wanted to get away from Sacs."
"How bad is he?" asked Gibbs.
"Bad." sighed Fornell.
"That bad?" smirked Gibbs.
They were walking down the corridor when Ziva came skidding down the corridor. "Abby's got something." she smiled.
"What?" asked Gibbs and Fornell at the same time.
Thanks sooo much for all the reviews again. I've been writing this on the sly (my parents don't know at all) so it will probably have some typos and it probably isn't that good. PLease tell me in your reviews!
Bye :)
