Hey everyone! Back again with a new chapter of "Undercover Sisters." Now the op is in play. I hope everyone enjoys the new chapter. Here we go!
Chapter Eight:
Breakout!
Ziva watched as Abby hacked into the power systems of NCIS headquarters. She could not make sense of the lines of code that her "sister" was inputting into the computer, but she was relieved that Abby did. She was the one that listened to McGee explain the procedure for hacking into the power. Ziva had her own job to do.
She felt the shades that she had concealed in her jacket pocket. Two special pair of glasses that converted infrared light to visible light, they looked like regular wrap around sunglasses. They had an infrared LED light that shined out around with a special sensor that converted the light back to the visible spectrum. It was something that McGee had been toying with for some time now because he wanted to play paintball at night against Tony one day. Naomi and Abby had taken his concept a step further, and made the shades work.
Ziva took one pair out of her pocket and slid them on top of her head. A very natural look for her indeed and not out of the ordinary. The other pair stayed in her pocket for Naomi to use when they broke her out of the interrogation room.
"Go in like normal Ziva. I will input the codes in two minutes. That should give you enough time to pass through security. Then ten minutes to get Naomi out," Abby said.
"Okay." Ziva walked into the building, presenting her ID to the guard and walking through the metal detector with no problems. She walked casually to the elevator, keeping her pace normal. She pretended to wait for the elevator.
Then, that was when the power went out. She automatically slipped the glasses over her eyes and swiped her finger over the nearly invisible button that activated the vision scope. She easily made her way up the stairs and to the interrogation rooms. In the observation room, she spotted Tony still trying to keep an eye on Naomi despite the power outage. She had plenty of time, so she decided to have a little fun. She snuck up behind him.
Tony flinched slightly when she opened the door with a slight creaking sound. Not giving him a chance to react, she grabbed him by the collar and turned him roughly around, fusing her lips to his.
"I missed you," Tony half moaned when she released him.
"Your apartment, oh twenty three hundred. I'll be waiting," she whispered, releasing him and continuing to the interrogation room.
Naomi jumped up immediately when Ziva opened the door. "Hallo, Z. I was thinking you had forgotten me."
Ziva passed her the spare pair of glasses. Naomi took them and put them on.
"We have five minutes. Let's get out of here."
"You do not have to tell me twice. The back way is quicker, yes?" Naomi replied as they stealthily crept out of the hallway and back to the stairs.
With fifteen seconds to spare, they reached Abby. She shut down her laptop, and motioned for them to pile into her deuce coupe. "The guard at the gate has strict instructions from Director Shepard to let us out without questions. In about five minutes," Abby explained as she started the car and drove toward the main gate of the Navy Yard. "They will be alerted to an escaped detainee. They will be given a description and ordered to stop every car matching that and search for the person matching that description."
"And what will they be searching for?" Naomi asked.
"Your general description plus or minus a few things."
"Okay," Naomi nodded as they approached the main gate. As expected, they were able to pass without problems.
"Gibbs and Tony were able to set up a safe house near the crime scenes in Woodbridge that we can bunk at until the op is over," Abby continued. "McGee set up cameras and supplied us with some surveillance equipment. That is where I am headed now."
"By the way, I know Gibbs took your .38 so we grabbed your Sig Sauer and your knife. They are under your seat."
"Vielen Dank, you two." She reached under the seat and felt the comforting weight of her weapons. "I am not that fond of revolvers anyway."
They continued the drive to the safe house.
Three hours later, nearing ten thirty that night, the girls were in the living room. Naomi, sitting on the couch with Abby, noticed her friend fidgeting slightly. Every once in a while she would pace the room. Naomi knew she hated the idleness that came with this kind of operation, but this was different.
"Getting restless, Ziva?" she asked.
Ziva glared at her in true sisterly fashion. "No, anxious."
"You want to sneak out to see Tony, don't you?" Abby asked with a sly smile. She hugged Bert the Hippo close to her.
"That is what I am doing now," Ziva answered, grabbing her jacket and car keys.
"See you tomorrow!" Naomi fired back as Ziva shut the door. She could just see her friend rolling her eyes in annoyance. She looked at Abby. "I do believe I have never seen her this much in love with someone."
"How long have you known Ziva?" Abby asked.
"Since she was six years old. I was nearly four years old. I was close to her little sister Tali as well. I am quite ashamed to admit it now, but I had a crush on her brother when were teenagers. I saw what happened to Ari after his mother was killed. We were neighbors in Tel Aviv. My mother worked with her father as partners in Mossad before she was sent to Germany, and he went into administration. I spent the first three years of my life in Germany. Then a Neo Nazi organization kidnapped and killed my father for marrying a Jew. My mother went through Mossad channels and snuck us out of the country and back to Israel. I grew up with Eli David and his family. When I was ordered to America to work for NCIS, I had just returned from a long mission in Germany."
"How long were you in Germany?"
"Long enough to complete my mission," Naomi replied simply. "I do not like talking about it much."
"And a lot of it I don't need to know," Abby surmised with a grin.
"Ja."
"So, what's on the schedule for tomorrow?"
"We infiltrate the assassin ring," Naomi answered. "Here is what I was thinking…"
Tony whistled to himself as he locked the doors to his Mustang and bounded up the steps to his apartment some expensive wine in one hand and a bouquet of red roses in the other. He opened the door to his apartment and stepped in. He dropped the red roses in a vase and set the wine in the refrigerator to cool. He then dropped his bag off in his bedroom. That was when he noticed the sound of hot water running from his bathroom. Moments later Ziva walked out in one of his robes and very damp hair.
"You are late," she said simply.
"Ten minutes," he replied, blowing it off.
"Ten minutes too long," Ziva said pulling him close to her.
"Had to make a fashionable entrance," Tony joked as he leaned in to kiss her. "So what was with the little act earlier?"
"I wanted to have a little fun," Ziva smiled coyly.
"And now?"
"I still want to have fun," she whispered huskily in his ear.
Tony's grin went from ear to ear as he pulled her down on the bed.
So, what do you think? Little bit of TIVA mixed with a high tech breakout featuring technology that doesn't exist as far as I know. And you learn a little about Naomi's past. Cool, huh? Next chapter: What does Naomi have in mind for smoking out the Assassin Ring? Until then, Maylee
