A/N: I was thinking about writing it for awhile, so in my sick haze, I am finally doing it.

Caleb Ari

It was morning. The sun barely peeking through the colorful leafs that attached them-self's to the branches. A soft breeze rustled the leafs that scattered the ground where Serena and Caleb walked, hand in hand.

They had slept amongst the trees, which towered over them, waking early to see if they could get back to the park, or at least a road, but both children were losing hope quickly. Serena sighed for what seemed like the billionth time and as kind as Caleb was, he was getting annoyed.

"Caleb, are we ever going to see our Mommie's or Daddy's?"

"Yes, Serena. We are going to see them and Malka and Abira and both our families." Caleb comforted her…again. Serena kicked the ground with the toe of her sandal. The shoe caught on a rock, causing her to trip forward.

Serena squeaked and reached out to grab on to the closest thing to her, which just happened to be the boy that was her best friend. Caleb yelled as they tumbled down a small hill. Bush branches scratched at their skin, making red lines upon them.

Once the ground stopped moving, both friends sat up. They laid on a dirt trail that went miles in both directions. Serena sat up, still dazed. Caleb, trained like his mother, jumped to his feet and looked around after making sure Serena was alright.

"Are we…on a walking trail?" Serena asked. Caleb nodded soundlessly.

"Mommie told me that if I ever got lost to look for places to go. Let us follow this road somewhere. Might lead us to people." Caleb told her in full 'Savior' mode.

"Okay." She conceded. He pulled her up and went to follow the dirt path.

An hour passed and they ran out of things to talk about, and before they heard someone. A thin, dark haired woman came up the trail. She had jogging shorts on and her hair was tied back into a high ponytail. The woman looked startled when she Caleb and Serena standing there in the middle of the walkway.

"Hey, what are you two doing out here? Where are your parents?" The lady crouched down to their height. Caleb eyed the woman, but did not move, not sensing anything bad about her.

"We got lost." Serena answered when Caleb choose to stay silent.

"Aw, you poor things. What are your names?"

"I'm Serena and this is Caleb. You?"

"Jeanne. What's you're last name? Maybe I can help find your Mom or Dad."

"David-DiNozzo." Caleb spoke up, finally revealing to her his identity. Jeanne's jaw went slack. She felt as though she has been slapped in the face. She didn't want to believe it, she hoped it didn't mean what it implied.

"Is your father Tony DiNa-I mean, Tony DiNozzo?"

"Yes." Jeanne gulped. She stood and took their hands in hers.

"C'mon, let's, uh, let's get you out of here."
