Jethro slowly opens his eyes...only to frown up at the blue sky before carefully sitting up to realise he is sitting in the middle of a crop-circle "Shit!? I...I'm back!?" with that he quickly gets up only to stumble as his legs threaten to give way. Once sure he can stand, he looks around...only to spot fields of corn (Great, just great) and looks up into the sky before shouting "KALICK!? KALICK I'M HERE!" he waits for an answer but hears nothing and he starts to panic as he begins to pace the ground "Shit! What are you going to do?" he jumps as he hears voices and he dives into the corn, to hide as the strangers approach
"Jack! See I told you!"
"Shit! How did this happen?"
"No idea, but the Government will be here soon to check it out as we don't want a repeat of what happened ten years ago with those Lizard men!"
Jethro frowns (Ten years? Seriously! I have been gone for ten years!?) with that thought in mind he slowly peeks out to spot two men, around his own height, staring at his landing spot only to cringe as as he trips and the corn rustles
The men jump and turn to face the direction of the noise
"S-Show yourself!"
"Yeah! W-What Kev said!"
He thinks over his options and sighs as he steps out into the open with his hands in the air "Hey...Guys"
Kev frowns before his eyes widen in shock "Shit! Jack it's him!"
Jack frowns "Don't be silly Kev, he is long gone!"
Jethro frowns but backs away as Kev approaches him
"Look at his neck! It's him!"
Jack sigh and walks over only to pause "I think you may be right Kev" he looks up and around "We need to get him away from here!"
Kev nods and turns to the man "You're the Silver Warrior? Aren't ya?"
Jethro warily looks at him and after a slight pause, he nods "Yeah...that's what the Luzardians called me" he backs away as both men approach him and he nervously growls
"Hey, we aren't gonna hurt ya...we just need to get you out of here before the Government men arrive as I have no doubt they'd take you away and after everything you've been through with the Lizard people...we can't let that happen"
He nods and goes to follow Kev out of the field but pauses as a helicopter flies past
Kev looks up before turning to him "Run! Quick go! We'll make sure they know nothing about you!"
Jethro nods and gives them a quick smile before dashing out of sight.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
He keeps to the shadows and blesses the fact that he has had Survival Training during his life in the Marines as he takes a break before trying to figure out where he should go (I wonder if Dad and the group are still around? Ten years is a long time) he stops and cocks his head to one side as he hears a...car, he turns and runs in the direction, sighing in relief at the sight of a red convertible and flags it down.
The car stops before him and he tries to get his breath back as the red headed woman raises an eyebrow at him
"Can I help you? Are you lost?"
He nods and asks "I...I need to find someone...and I have no idea where to start looking"
She smirks "Your friend got a name?"
Jethro thinks about each person and decides to tell her the name of the one he really needs to talk to "Doctor Donald Mallard"
She looks at him in shock "Ducky? An old British man?"
He frowns "You know Duck?"
She smirks "I Work with him" with that she opens the passenger door, pausing slightly at his state of dress before shaking herself free of the shock of the sight of leather "Get in, I'll take you to him"
He sighs in relief and accepts the lift "My names Jethro"
She smiles and hands out her hand "Jenny"
Jethro returns the smile and shakes her hand before doing up his seatbelt "Where does he Work now?"
"NCIS"
A frown crosses his face "Where?"
Jenny smirks as she drives "NCIS, Naval Criminal Investigative Service" she shakes her head "Where have you been the last ten years? Living under a rock?"
He gives her a small smile "You have no idea" with that he makes himself comfortable while wrapping his arms protectively around his stomach as he looks up into the darken sky.
He feels someone shaking his shoulder and he slowly awakens, only to frown at the sight of big building and the fact that it is clearly a new day "Whoa...did I fall asleep?"
Jenny chuckles as she opens his door "You slept the whole way. Now come on"
Jethro yawns and shakes himself as he follows her into the building and up to the desk
"You'll have to wait here for Ducky to meet you, as you don't have the Security Clearance"
He nods and watches her go before turning up the collar of his coat, to cover up his Mate Collar, as well as wrapping himself up as he gets odd looks at his state of dress. He rolls his eyes (You are in leather! Of course you'll be getting weird looks!) he turns around as he hears a voice ask
"J-Jethro?...Jethro i-is it you?"
A warm smile crosses his face at the sight of his dear friend and he holds back the tears as he nods "Yeah Duck...I'm back"
Ducky walks over and embraces his dear friend "Oh Jethro my dear boy...I thought I was never going to see you again!"
He hides his face in the crook of his neck as he lets the tears fall "Me neither"
The older man draws back and smiles "Come, let the Gang see you"
Jethro sniffs and wipes his eyes "They all here? And still Safe and Well?"
He nods as he takes leads him into the lift "When Jennifer told me about you, I informed the Gang and they are waiting for news in Abigails Lab...but lets surprise them"
Jethro chuckles and nods as he wipes his eyes as the lift descends. As soon as the door opens he straightens up and strides into the Lab only to stagger back as a young woman jumps him
"Bossman!"
He frowns and untangles himself to have a good look at her "Abby? Abs is that you?" at her nod he cocks his head to one side as he spots the black mark that looks like a cobweb on her neck and he slowly strokes along it before smiling "You got old!" with that he glances around the room "You've all got old!" he walks up to the older Woman and tugs her into a hug "Hi Kate...you've done well with Abs"
She nods as she hugs him tight "It's so good to see you again,even if you haven't aged at all!"
He chuckles and draws back before kissing her forehead "In Space time moves differently" with that he walks over to the young man and takes a good look at him "You've gotten tall Tim"
He nods and tugs him into a hug "I kept my Word for you Boss"
Jethro nods and pulls back before kissing his cheek "I'm proud of you Tim" with that he walks over to Ziva and smirks as he tugs her to his chest "You've done well with him Ziver"
She nods as she lets the tears fall "It's so good to hear your voice Gibbs"
He smirks and gives her a tight squeeze as he kisses the top of her hair before pulling back "As it is yours aswell" he turns to the nervous young man in glasses and chuckles as he tugs him into a hug "Hey Palmer, Jimmy...it's good to see you too"
"Thanks Mr Gibbs"
Jethro shakes his head and kisses his cheek as he steps back to smirk at the black man "Hey Gerald"
Gerald smirks back as he tugs him against his chest "Good to see you Gibbs, although I never expected to see you again"
He shrugs and accepts the hug before kissing his cheek and stepping back "Where's Dad"
"Here Leroy"
Jethro takes a deep breath before turning around and taking in the sight of his Dad. His bottom lip trembles as tears well up in his eyes and as Jack holds out his arms, he lets out a sob as he runs into them and buries his head into the crook of his neck as he lets himself break down to let out all the fear, pain and terror he has been holding in.
Jack frowns and glances at everyone in worry as he soothingly rubs along his back "Leroy?...Leroy what is it? What happened to you?"
Jethro tries to get himself under control (I'm a Marine for God sake! Get it together and suck it up!) with those thoughts in mind he pulls back, only a tiny bit, as he answers "I'm Pregnant"
Silence echoes through the room as everyone tries to understand what has been said, the only sound is the noise of Jethros sobs as he cries into his Dads chest.
