In autopsy, the Corporal's body was still on the table and Ducky was weighing the man's liver when Gibbs walked in.

"Ah, Jethro, I have only started. It's been backed up down here," Ducky said, "I'll let you know when I get something."

"Not what I came down here for Duck," Gibbs replied, "Has anyone told you?"

"Told me what? What has happened?" Ducky asked, concern etching his features.

Gibbs sighed and scrubbed a hand down his face. He looked up to Ducky and shook his head.

"Rachel and Nikki were…uh…were kidnapped," Gibbs forced out.

Ducky's features changed from concern to worry. He understood why his colleague was down there with him. He stopped working on the Corporal, covered him, removed his gloves, and washed his hands. He then sat down at his desk and indicated the opposite chair from him. Gibbs walked over, but chose to lean against the desk.

"What happened?" Ducky finally asked. Gibbs looked at his elder friend. He knew that Ducky had thought of his girls as his granddaughters.

"They were out front of the school building, waiting on Jenny and me to pick them up. Their teacher wasn't too far off. Then a man approached them and Mrs. Reid tried to get to them, but was held off by another parent, who I think had something to do with the whole thing. Anyway, Nikki and Rachel screamed and turned to run when he grabbed them and tossed them into a van. The van drove off with my little girls," Gibbs recounted what Mrs. Reid told him about what happened.

"Oh dear," Ducky said, "Do you have any idea who could've taken them?"

"Any number of people have a vendetta against me, Jen, Tony, McGee, Ziva, hell even Abby, but I have a feeling that it has to do with Corporal Davidson. I seriously do Duck. The man seems so familiar to me, but I can't place him and I keep thinking that if I can remember why that would be the key to finding Rachel and Nikki and getting them home safely," Gibbs said and put his head in his hands.

"Jethro, I will do everything in my power to help you figure this out. I want them home as much as anyone. I think of those little girls as my granddaughters and I love them dearly. I have to finish this autopsy and send some things up to Abby, but you know that is the worse part. The waiting can be excruciating when it's a family member in danger, especially the children," Ducky said, "Let me get this done and I'll call you the moment I have something."

"Thanks Duck and thanks for listening," Gibbs said.

"Anytime, now go find our girls," Ducky said with a grin. Gibbs smirked and walked out of autopsy with renewed determinedness to find his daughters.


Abby worked hard on the evidence. She checked, double checked, and triple checked everything, but there wasn't much she came up with. The tires that made the tracks were common in purchase and all the other things that were bagged and tagged were useless. She collapsed into her chair and stared at her monitor. She kept thinking about how Rachel and Nikki were out there scared and probably hurt and there was nothing that she could do to help them. She had never felt so useless before.

McGee noticed Abby's downtrodden look as she sat in her chair. He knew how she felt and that saddened him even more. He wanted nothing more than to find the little girls he'd come to love as sisters, but the evidence was getting them nowhere and he knew that was the reason for Abby's mood as for the reason that there was no music in the lab today. He heard the elevator and knew immediately who was coming and he knew that he wasn't going to like what they had found, or rather hadn't found.

"Abby!" Gibbs called as he walked into the lab. He noticed McGee at the outer terminal and that Abby was in her office. He walked straight back there nodding to McGee who looked down at the keyboard in front of him. Gibbs stood in front of Abby's desk as she was staring at the screen.

"Abs, everything okay?" he asked softly. Her gaze flickered up to him and he noticed the unshed tears in her eyes.

"No it's not Gibbs," Abby said, "I…I…I don't have anything to indicate who might've taken Rachel or Nikki! There's nothing! The evidence is useless and so am I!"

She pulled her knees to her chest and wrapped her arms around them. She put her head on top of them and began to sob.

Gibbs wasn't good with crying women, but Abby was different. He walked around the desk and squatted next to her even though his knees protested the movement. He put an arm around her shoulders and she shrugged him off.

"Abby, you're not useless. You're not, and I need you to get your head together because there are things that I need you to do that has nothing to do with the evidence. Help me find your sisters," Gibbs whispered softly to her.

Abby lifted her head to meet his eyes.

"Really?" she asked and he nodded. "Okay, what do you need?" She sniffled and straightened in her seat.

"That's my girl," he said with a grin, "I need you to dig up everything you can find on Corporal Davidson. His family, his coworkers, his contacts, absolutely everything you can find on him. I want to know everything about the man."

"Gibbs, you're not still working the case when Rachel and Nikki are out there? I mean, I understand throwing-"she stopped because she noticed his look, "You think that someone he knew had something to do with them being taken."

He nodded and grinned at her perceptiveness.

"I'm on it! Thanks Gibbs," she said and wrapped her arms around his neck. He returned the hug and kissed her cheek before leaving her to her work.

"McGee! Get back here!" she yelled and he watched as McGee scrambled to the office. Gibbs chuckled and headed back upstairs to see how the others had faired.


Jenny had just gotten out of MTAC. The op she had to run was a success and she felt better knowing that that was out of the way. Out on the catwalk she noticed Tony and Ziva frantically working and that her husband was nowhere in sight. She walked down to the MCRT area.

Tony looked up as did Ziva when Jenny walked into the bullpen.

"Director. Anything we can help you with?" Tony asked professionally.

"Where's Gibbs?" she asked not taking her eyes off her husband's desk.

"Autopsy," he replied.

"Why?" she asked.

"He didn't share the reason," Tony replied. Jenny nodded.

"Director?" Tony said. Jenny looked to him.

"We're gonna find them, and they are going to be find," Tony said. Jenny smirked at him.

"I know you will Tony," Jenny said, "You love them as your sisters and will do everything in your power to get them back."

"Not only me, Ma'am. Ziva and McGee do also. They are special girls and we will find them and the people who took them will go to prison for the rest of their natural lives, assuming of course if they survive long enough to get arrested," Tony said with his famous grin.

Jenny chuckled as she knew that the best team was searching for her children and that her husband had a bit of a temper and the now former Mossad operative on his team would do anything to protect the twin girls they all loved.

"I understand Tony. I just want them back is all," Jenny said her voice cracking, "Let me know if you get anything."

"Will do, Ma'am," Tony said as he bent his head down to get back to work.

"And Tony?" Jenny said he lifted his head, "Thanks." Tony grinned and went back to work.

Jenny trusted that everything was being done to find her girls. She went back to her office and collapsed into her chair. She hoped that her children were safe and that her other children and her husband would find them soon.


Rachel stared at the door as she heard footsteps approaching. She hoped that it wouldn't open and that they would just leave her and Nikki alone. Nikki was leaning against Rachel. She felt hot and she was sweating. Rachel knew that there was something wrong with Nikki. She didn't know what, but she knew that her sister was in a lot of pain. The footsteps stopped at the door and then walked off. Rachel released the breath she had been holding.

"We're gonna get outta here Nikki. I just know it. You gotta hold on Nikki. Just hold on," Rachel said over and over to her sister.

Nikki was in and out of consciousness, but she heard her sister and she was fighting to stay there with her. She was fighting for her life.
