Chapter Two: The Call
|NCIS|
This next chapter is about really good song all the way around. But I really like first verse and first course. I highly recommend you listen to the song after reading this chapter. The name of the song and who it is sung by is at the bottom. This one of favorite chapters I wrote in any of my fan fiction stories.
Disclaimer: I do NOT own NCIS, the characters, or the actors who play them, any of Gibbs rules that are mentioned, and I also do NOT own any of the songs. All I own is a library card to let me access the computers for an hour to type this and I also own a flash drive where I can save all of my work.
Let me know what your favorite pair is at NCIS and give me a line in a song that reminds you of that pair.

"Today was going be the day He'd already wrote the note And parked that Chevrolet At end of that dead end road Had his finger on the trigger; just about end everything He was taking was one last long breathe; when he heard his cell phone ring And his best friends say man where you been? We're headed down to the lake this weekend You better not miss it 'cause buddy I swear It won't be the same If you ain't there And I told that girl you like so much You were coming along and her eyes lit up I better let you go man I really hope I didn't catch you in the middle of anything He said you kinda did but I don't at all I'm glad you called."

Tony was living a pretty good life until his mother died. That was when everything started to go downhill- really quickly. His father would bring in random girls and would get drunk and beat Tony to a pulp, saying it was his fault that his mother died. A couple of days ago, he made a mistake. A young girl almost died because of this mistake.

Two days ago: "Clear," Tim and Ziva yelled at the same time. "Clear," Gibbs called right after. Tony entered the room and all of them heard "Clear. NCIS- put your weapon down!" All three of them ran down the hallway, weapons drawn, to find Tony. There he was, standing in the middle of the room pointing his weapon at the criminal they had been searching for, Joe, and the five year girl, Kaye. Joe had a gun barrel to her head. Yesterday, they had found out that Joe was Kaye's biological father, and the mother would not have Kaye near Joe. Joe snarled, "What is NCSI?" Tony answered, "NCIS, Naval Criminal Investigative Service. Put your weapon down, and then we'll talk. I don't want scare your daughter by having to shoot you." "You don't understand, man! I just want my daughter to remember me." Tony, by now, was getting really frustrated with him, "Well, she will remember you holding her hostage, even though she is still young. This is a very traumatic experience. Not only that, but when people remember and talk about times of their childhood, they talk about memories in their lives between the ages of five and eight. So she will remember this for the rest of her life, right sweetie?" Kaye nods and sends Tony a smile. "I'm not letting her go, because it's her fault that this is going on the first place. Hear that, sweetie? This is your fault." Speaking of remembering your childhood, that's when his father's drunken words hit him. "It's your fault!" His farther's words pounded in his head. He turned off his safety off and heard two more safeties go off. He knew they were Tim's and Ziva's. He knew he was not the only one the words hit. Eli still blamed Ziva for her mother's and Tali's deaths. Even though Tim's mother did not die like Tony's and Ziva's, Tony had a feeling that the Admiral blamed Tim for the divorce that Tim's mother and the Admiral went through. "I'm going ask you one more time-put down the weapon!" Tony said forcefully. "No!" That's when the safety on Joe's gun went off, and Kaye began to cry. That's also when all three of the agents' guns went off. Kaye came running up to them, and all three of them bent down to Kaye's height. Ziva said, "Kaye, honey, I'm Special Agent Ziva David. These are my partners, Special Agents Timothy McGee and Anthony DiNozzo, but you can call them what everyone else calls them- Tim and Tony." Pointing to Tim and Tony, both men sending her a smile. Tim asked her, "Can you do us a favor? As soon as you do it, we'll take you to see your mommy." Kaye nodded. Then, Tony spoke up, "Okay, I'm going to wrap you up in my jacket and carry you outside where you can get checked out. Does anything hurt, Kaye?" She nodded her head and showed them were it looked like a bullet had grazed her head. Then, Tony said "Okay, honey, just look at me. We'll be outside in just a minute, then you'll get to see your mommy!" Tony wrapped his jacket around her small, shivering body, gathered in her in his arms, and carried her outside. On the way out, Kaye asked, "Are you the one who shot my daddy?" Tony nodded and replied, "Yes, all three of us did. Your dad told you it was your fault that he was in this mess, and it wasn't. All three of us, Tim, Ziva, and I, all had something happen to us that our fathers said the same thing to us." Kaye asked, "Oh, did you kill him?" Tony knew that Joe would not have survived, but he didn't know for sure. "I don't know. I have go back and check, but I hurt you in the process. If I had more concern about just getting your daddy into custody and not focusing on what my father said to me, you would not have gotten hurt." Kaye nodded at his response.

Today, he is in his truck on a side of D.C were no one seems to go anymore. He takes out his NCIS service weapon and points it at his head. While taking a last breath, he thinks about the people he's leaving behind, and all the people he might see again. One person who makes him reconsider what he's doing is Ziva. She had once said, "I always lose people who I get to close to." It was not fair to her, but he couldn't keep endangering people's lives, hers included, just like he had written in his note. His thoughts were interrupted when his cell phone started ringing with an unknown number. Half of him thought, "I should answer this, that way they have a time stamp." The other half thought, "I knew I should have left this at home." He answered it anyways. "Hello?" Tony said. "Hey, Tony. It's Tim. I just got a new number, and I need tell you something." There was a long pause. Finally, Tony snapped, "McGoo, I don't have all day!" "Oh, right, sorry! Tony, you know how Gibbs had been working on a new boat?" "Yeah, and-" "And get this, Tony! He is letting us, Ziva, Abby, you, and me, use it this weekend at the lake. He will stay here in case something happens to us or something comes up while we are away. What do you say?" "I don't think I want to…" McGee cut Tony off, "Awww-come on, Tony! It will be fun! It won't be the same if you're not there, either cracking jokes about fishing or spouting quotes about boat-related movies. Not only that, but I might have told Ziva you were coming..." "McGee, either you told her or you didn't, but I have a feeling you did." "Yes, Tony, I did. When I did, though, her eyes lit up! She is so excited that you are coming! I gotta go. I hope didn't catch you in the middle of doing something." Tony felt a lone tear streak down his cheek, "Yes on both: going to the lake and catching me in the middle of something. McGee whatever you do, never regret catching me in the middle of doing something today, if you say sorry about interrupting today I will give you a hard head slap. I'm really glad you called." With that, they hung up, and Tony made his way back home, knowing this week would end better than it started.
