The only advantage to a psycho being after Tony. Was that it allowed Gibbs to stay by Tony's side even after visiting hours had ended. Somehow the message to fight had gotten through because Tony had improved from that afternoon. He was still very sick and there was still a far to great chance that he could die but he had improved. If he could just get through this and somebody could donate their lungs to him everything would be perfect. Gibbs heard the door open and looked up to see Dr. Pitt standing in front of him. He had obviously just gotten off work because his scrubs had been replaced by a pair of faded blue jeans and a purple Michigan t-shirt.

"You're lucky Tony can't see you in that." Gibbs replied.

"I know but I love this shirt." Dr. Pitt replied.

"Any word on a transplant?" Gibbs asked.

"Not yet I'm sorry." Dr. Pitt replied.

"Then why are you here?" Gibbs questioned.

"Just wanted to see my friend." Dr. Pitt replied.

"Don't treat this like a deathbed." Gibbs warned.

"I'm not I just wanted to check on him one last time before I left to go home." Dr. Pitt explained.

"If you promise that all that this is. I will step out and give you two some privacy." Gibbs replied.


It was late and Ducky was getting ready to go to bed. Yielding further complications. Jimmy would be released tomorrow and he would need somebody to care for him. Since Breena remained missing. It was up to him to care for his young assistant until he was recovered. He just prayed that they would find Breena before too long and that she would be without too much damage. Jimmy needed her and vice versa. Not to mention if she died than Ray would win. He was just getting under the covers. When there was a knock at the door. Sighing he climbed out of bed and made his way to the front door. Standing on the other side was Special Agent Michael Cortez.

"Michael what are you doing here at this hour?" Ducky asked.

"I heard that Jimmy was awake." Michael replied.

"He woke up around six." Ducky replied.

"How is he?" Michael asked.

"He is doing well. He is tired and upset about Breena and Anthony but he is OK." Ducky explained.

"Does he blame me? For what happened to Breena?" Michael asked.

"No he is upset that she was kidnapped but understands that these things happen." Ducky explained.

"Do you think he will be up for visitors tomorrow?" Michael asked.

"Well he is set to be released around noon. So how about you just come over here and meet him then? It will be easier on everybody like that." Ducky offered.

"Sounds like a plan. I just hope they find Breena." Michael sighed.

"So do I Michael." Ducky replied.


Emily lay awake every time she heard a sound. She was sure that it was her phone ringing and that it was Gibbs saying that Tony was dead. As it turned out nobody could sleep. Dylan and Carly climbed into bed with her. She was just drifting off to sleep when she heard cries from across the hall. She pulled herself out of bed. To go and see what Jack wanted. She quickly realized that he needed a new diaper. She got him changed and then sat with him for a while. Tony claimed that the baby looked just like Ziva but she noticed a lot of his father in him too. She hoped that she would get to watch him grow and be there for all the big moments of his life. One of the last conversations she;d had with Tony before all this happened. Was about how Tony wanted to make up for the way his dad treated him with Jack. Sadly right now it looked like he wouldn't get the opportunity.

"Your daddy loves you Jack. Never forget that." Emily whispered.


Breena felt the blood rush to her head. She was just starting to come to consciousness and realize that she was tied up and upside down. She looked down and saw that she was hanging from a pipe on the ceiling and her body was duct taped. She tried her hardest to wiggle out of the trap. Her hair was reddish-brown from all the dried blood and she felt like she'd been hit by a truck. The door swung open and Ray stormed back in slamming the door behind him. He ran up and started using her body like a punching bag. Calling her every cruel and derogatory name in the book. She had tried so hard not to cry and show weakness during the ordeal but when he grabbed her hair and yanked out a handful. She broke down. Unfortunately this only seemed to make him angrier. He grabbed the end of the duct tape and yanked it off of her body with all his might. A sharp burning sensation rushed through her body. Her stomach churned and she vomited all over the floor. Ray grabbed her the shoulders, yanked her out of her trap. Her body crashed to the ground with a thud. She knew that multiple bones had broken in her body.

"Smile I want Gibbs to see this." Ray taunted snapping a picture of Breena on his phone.


Since Agent Cortez was out of commission and so was most of Team Gibbs. McGee had taken the job of Senior Field Agent for his team. It was six in the morning and the sun was just starting to come up. When they finally got a lead on Breena. That genius CI Ray had decided to send a text on his personal cellphone and they had managed to get his location. He balanced his laptop on his legs and barked directions. While Agent Roberts sped down the street. All four Agents prayed the whole way there that they were not too late. McGee had also managed to pull up the picture and it showed her bloody and bruised. She also had a huge chuck of hair missing and her clothes were torn. Agent Roberts slammed on the brakes outside of an abandoned gas station. The agents kicked the glass out of the doors and stormed into the building. Then worked together to knock down the door to the backroom. Agent Roberts and the members of his team rushed over and tried to take Ray down. While McGee rushed over to Breena's side. He reached for her neck and checked for a pulse. There was one but it was very weak. He pulled her into his arms and held her close to his chest. One of the other agents yelled that they had called for 911. Breena stirred slightly

"It's OK Breena I'm here." McGee assured.

"Tell Jimmy I love him." Breena rasped and then she went completely limp.


McGee didn't hesitate he lay Breena on the floor and began CPR. Agent Roberts and his team looked on helplessly. They had turned Ray's trap against him and he was now the one hanging from the ceiling. The first responders arrived and took Ray down and led him to the police car. While the paramedics attended to Breena. They got her heart started again but they could not get her to breathe. They placed an oxygen mask over her face, loaded her into the ambulance and raced away. The four agents silently walked back to their car, climbed in, and silently drove down the street behind the ambulance.

"She has to be OK. She just has to." McGee whispered.
