Chapter 35

Gibbs...

„There's no antidote. It's a vaccine, not antidote. Hannah must have misunderstood" Doctor Pandy defended himself.

"Oh, trust me. She understood very well" Gibbs said while pointing a gun at him and holding a guard's collar with his other hand.

"No, you don't know. She has a brain tumor!" He replied.

"So, that thing is killing her?" Gibbs asked.

"It's obviously affecting her brain, she is against those, why would she use it?" He swallowed.

"I don't know, you tell me. Why is the company making them anyway?" Gibbs questioned.

"No, we're not!" He said.

"What, you're telling me you didn't create this beast?" Gibbs slowly puts his gun away.

"We did, but only for defense against terrorists!" He explained. Gibbs put his gun back at him.

"WHAT? A terrorist isn't killing my agent, you are!" Gibbs yelled angrily.

"I completely understand why you're angry…" He tried to calm him down.

"NO, you don't! If you don't save him, you'll feel it very well!" Gibbs exclaimed.

"The gene kills itself after thirty-two hours!" He said, scared of Gibbs's gun.

"It dies?" Gibbs put his gun back in his pocket.

"Yes! It dies" Doctor nodded.

"Is it dead yet?" Gibbs asked.

"Yes, Y pestis is dead. However, there will be consequences" He says.

"Subject dies!?" Gibbs lifts the gun again.

"No, no! Not necessarily, he has a slight better chance of surviving plague, if he's young and healthy" He assures him.

"Tell me the survival rate!" Gibbs shouts.

"Well, before, people were weakened by the…" He starts, but Gibbs goes mad.

"DAMN IT, TELL ME WHAT'S THE SURVIVAL RATE!?" Gibbs yells from the bottom of his lungs.

"Fifteen percent!" He answered. Gibbs put his gun away in shock.

Tony and Kate…

"Oh, it looks like pneumonia!" Ducky says.

"Worse, I'm afraid, Doctor. He has symptoms of cyanosis. His lips and fingernails are going blue" Brad sighed with the explanation.

"Plague is taking his body oxygen. Too late to reverse?" Ducky asks.

"It's never too late, don't worry" Doctor Brad assures him.

"Yes, sure. Until I get the body" Ducky said.

…

I'm… sorry… I teased you… with all those… movies, Kate" Tony barely said.

"Please. You have tortured me. For two years, all I heard was John Wayne, Clint Eastwood and James Bond" Kate tried to joke, but it was very hard.

"James… Bond… He's a character… Played by… Sean Connery…George Lazenby… Roger… Moore… and Perce… Bronsan Why are you wearing a mask?" Tony tries to talk. He coughs again.

"Because I have a cold" Kate lies. Lie, lie, lie! Damn it, he found out.

"Why aren't you sick?" He says, weakly.

"Because, I'm stronger than you, Tony" She lies again. CAITLIN TODD, STOP LYING, NOW!

"Are not" He barely says.

"Am too" She says back at him and smiles. He couldn't see the smile, but, who cares. Tony chokes really bad.

"Tony! You need to sit up, Tony!" Kate yelled and tried to help him. Doctor Brad shows up.

Mariah Carry-Without you plays in the background.

"KATE! You really gotta go, I'm sorry" He says.

"But, wait…" She tries to resist.

"NOW" He says. She looks at Tony who was still fighting for some oxygen.

"Tony…" Kate whispered. She got out of the isolation and took off her mask. She started crying and saw Ducky there. She jumped in his arms and held him tight.

"He's… He's dying, Ducky! Oh My God!" She continued sobbing into his shoulder. He patted her back.

"I know, Kate, I know. It was very brave of you to stay here" Ducky whispered. She cried even more.

"Ah, the hell he's dying!" Gibbs passed by angrily. Kate was shocked, and quickly wiped her tears off.

Tony and Gibbs…

"Whoa, hold on. Who the hell are you?" Dr. Brad stops Gibbs.

"I'm his boss. He's no longer infectious" Gibbs says and walks by. He walks over to Tony.

"Tony, listen to me. Are you listening?" Gibbs whispers.

"I'm listening" Tony barely says.

"You're not gonna die. I repeat, you're not dying" Gibbs whispers.

"Okay, I got you boss" Tony responds.

"Good. Here's your new phone. I changed the number. Women kept calling for Spankie" Gibbs whispers and walks away.

"Spankie" Tony whispers to himself and smiles.

In the waiting room…

Gibbs walks out of the ordination. He spots a teenage brunette passing by. She was about thirteen, average height, and was very fit! She had beautiful eyes…. Anyways, she had a name tag that had: 'VISITOR' on it. Gibbs looked a little.

"Hey, boss!" McGee runs to Gibbs.

"Hey, McGee" Gibbs says without turning away from the girl. McGee sees her and then says:

"Is that…?" McGee asks.

"Nah" Gibbs waves his head off.

"So, how's Tony?" McGee asks.

"Oh, better, don't worry" Gibbs pats McGee's shoulder. He nods.

"When are we going to be able to see him?" McGee asks.

"Gee, I thought you hate Tony, McGee" Gibbs smiles.

"I don't hate him. He can be very annoying at some times, but…" McGee says.

"He's a good guy, McGee. We all know it" Gibbs cuts him off.

"Yeah" McGee agrees.

"So, wanna grab some coffee?" Gibbs suddenly says.

"Oh, sure" McGee says.

They both walk out of the waiting room.

In the isolation room…

Kate and Brad are standing outside the isolation room, watching Tony. Kate sighs, and then turns to Brad.

"Can I sleep here?" She asks.

"Well, as long as you don't get Tony that cold" Brad smiles.

"Thanks" Kate says and walks in. Emma passes by her.

"He's asleep now" Emma adds.

"Okay" Kate whispers. She approaches Tony and looks at him. He looked so peaceful while sleeping, so she didn't want to wake him up. She lied down in her bed and closed her eyes.

"Reminds me of the end of the 'Alien'" Tony says. Kate chuckles.

Without you stops playing.
