AN: Well, don't blame me if the medical information isn't correct because I'm not a doctor and I don't even try to play one on TV. Thank you for the response from the last chapter! It was wonderfully appreciated! Enjoy this next one!

After a week of IV antibiotics, the doctors said that Nikki was well enough to go home, but had to take a prescription for the next week. Jenny and Gibbs didn't care as long as their little girl was joining them at home.

After Rachel had been discharged she refused to leave without Nikki and the team refused to leave as well, but they all came to an understanding, well, more along the lines of Gibbs told them what was going to happen. Rachel and the team were all sent to Ducky's while Jenny and Gibbs stayed at the hospital overnight with Nikki, but they were all allowed back during the day. They all agreed on the terms and were satisfied, but now that Nikki was going home, Gibbs and Jenny knew they were in for extra guests for the next few weeks, at least until Nikki's cast could come off.

Outside in the hallway, Jenny and Gibbs tried to reason with their children while Rachel and Nikki were spending some time together. Jenny sighed at the latest excuse that Tony had come up for the reason why they need to stay over.

"I have a security detail Tony. I think that's enough protection," Jenny said.

"Yeah, they did nothing to protect them the day they were taken. Aaron even impersonated one of the agents, so that's not enough. Besides, what if they have flashbacks or something like that with the detail hanging around?" Tony offered. Jenny groaned and Gibbs grumbled.

"Gibbs, Jenny, we are merely trying to help. Tony, McGee, and I will be there as security and Abby and Ducky for support so that you two can focus on helping Nikki and Rachel both heal from this traumatic experience," Ziva said.

Gibbs sighed and looked to Jenny. They spoke with their eyes and knew that there was no getting out of this. Jenny looked to their children and then in on the twins who were on the bed together playing a card game. She looked to her children again.

"Fine, but if there is one ounce of bickering or arguing, you all are going home," Jenny warned.

"We'll be on our best behaviors," Abby said bouncing up and down and then lunging forward to wrap the two in a hug while the others stood there with big smiles on their faces.

"Uh-huh, I'll believe that when I see it, Abs," Gibbs said. Abby chuckled.

"So, shall we tell them?" Jenny asked. The group nodded and they all made their way into Nikki's room.

Rachel and Nikki were playing Crazy Eights. They occasionally glanced over at the window where their family was talking amongst themselves. Rachel looked to Nikki.

"Whatcha think they talkin' bout?" Rachel asked her sister. Nikki looked over at the window.

"I dunno. Maybe about the people or what happens after I go home," Nikki speculated.

Rachel nodded in agreement with her sister. She lay down a nine of clubs and turned to look at her family. Apparently Abby had gotten her way about something because she was bouncing and then hugged her parents. She grinned and turned to Nikki who had lay down her last card winning the game.

"You always win this game!" Rachel said.

"Well, you always win at Go Fish, so it seems fair to me," Nikki said.

Then her door opened and in came their family. Jenny and Gibbs moved to opposite sides of the bed and the others stood in a row facing the girls. Rachel moved over next to Nikki.

"Okay girls, this is what's going to happen for the next few weeks," Jenny started, "Your brothers and sisters are going to be staying with us for a while to be sure that you guys are safe so that Daddy and I can focus on you guys. Grandpa is going to come and check on your progress and make sure everything is going fine. Are you two okay with this?"

"Yes ma'am," they said in unison.

"Okay, but know that the moment your brothers and sisters start arguing or bickering about something they go home, got it?" Gibbs said.

"Got it," they said.

Just then the doctor walked in. He held the papers out to Gibbs who took them.

"Okay, Nikki is all set to go home. I've included instructions on how to care for her with a broken arm and I've given you a prescription for the antibiotics. Be sure that she takes all of them because she risks re-infection if she doesn't," the doctor told them.

"Thank you so much for everything," Jenny told him and shook his hand.

"No problem. I just hope your girls get better," the doctor said and left the room.

"Does this mean I can finally leave this place now?" Nikki asked.

"Yes, it doe sweetheart," replied Gibbs. Nikki let a big grin loose.

"Are you ready?" Jenny asked.

"Am I ever?" Nikki responded. Everyone laughed at the little girl and they all left the hospital to go home.

Nikki and Rachel fell asleep on the ride home so Jenny sent McGee and Abby to pick up the prescriptions. They each carried a girl into the house and settled them into their beds. They stood back and looked at their girls. They were both happy to have them back home. They went downstairs to join Tony and Ziva.

"So, lunch anyone?" Tony asked. Ziva rolled her eyes.

"Tony, when do you not think about food? Wait, do not answer that, I do not want to know," Ziva said. Tony made a face at her.

"I think we could all eat. Um, pizza or Chinese today DiNozzo?" Gibbs asked knowing full well what the answer would be.

"Pizza, as always Boss," Tony said with his DiNozzo grin.

They ordered pizza and McGee and Abby came back with the prescriptions.

While waiting for the pizza they talked about sleeping arrangements and other things, but that was ceased when screams filled the house. Tony and Ziva both moved like lightning up the stairs, Gibbs and Jenny on their heels. They got to the girls' room to find Nikki and Rachel both in the holds of nightmares. Jenny took Nikki's hands in hers.

"Nikki, baby, it's okay. You're home and safe, wake up," Jenny said to her daughter. Nikki whimpered and moaned before opening her eyes and leapt up to wrap her arms around her mother and began to cry.

While Jenny was calming Nikki, Gibbs tried to wake Rachel, but he seemed to only make it worse as she wouldn't open her eyes. Ziva touched his shoulder.

"Maybe it is because she was held by men that is the reason she is not responding. Let me try, yes?" Ziva asked. Gibbs nodded and moved. Ziva took his place and put her hands on Rachel's hands gently.

"Rachel, it is okay. Come on, wake up, Tateleh," Ziva said softly. Rachel moaned and sobbed and turned again.

"Rachel, it is Ziva, you are safe at home," Ziva tried again. Rachel turned to face the voice and opened her eyes. She hugged Ziva tightly as her own tears fell.

Both women soothed the twins until their sobs became hiccups which dissolved into sniffles. It was silent shortly after that.

"Mommy," Nikki said, "The men ain't comin' back are they?"

"No sweetheart. Daddy, Ziva, and Tony took care of them. You and Rachel are safe now," Jenny said softly. She kissed her daughter's head and rocked her some more.

"Do I smell pizza?" Nikki asked. Jenny chuckled.

"Yes, you do. We ordered lunch. Are you hungry?" Jenny asked. Nikki nodded. They got up and joined the others downstairs.

Ziva and Rachel were left alone. Rachel was still wrapped around Ziva.

"Tateleh, do you want to talk about your dream?" Ziva asked.

"No, I jus' want it to go away so I don't gotta think bout it no more," Rachel said.

"Okay. Aba and Ima ordered lunch. Are you ready to eat?" Ziva asked.

"Okay, but don't let me go please," Rachel begged. Ziva lifted the girl into her arms and carried her down to join the others.

Tony, McGee, and Abby were around the coffee table and Jenny and Gibbs were on the couch with Nikki between them. Ziva walked in carrying Rachel. Gibbs looked up at her. Ziva nodded that she was okay and took a seat next to the coffee table across from Tony, McGee, and Abby. Rachel settled into her lap.

Nikki was eating her second slice when she looked over to her sister. She got up with her plate and went over next to Rachel and Ziva and sat with them. When Nikki sat down, Rachel got off Ziva's lap and sat next to her sister. They held hands while they ate. The group watched them in silence. They all knew that if anything that this traumatic experience had brought them closer together.
