Kate is still at the abandoned house by herself. She is crying hoping that her family will come find her and kill this guy or put him in prison. She then remembers something Ziva taught her. She loosens the ropes that were digging into her skin and she frees herself. She runs from the room looking carefully to make sure Max doesn't catch her. She hears a car pull up to the house so she acts quickly she runs out of the back door and runs but bumps into someone.
"Going somewhere kid?" Max asked sarcastically
She then runs the other way but Max catches her.
"LET ME GO! LET ME GO! I WANT MY DADDY!" Kate yelled.
"Quiet dumb brat". Max said.
Kate is kicking and screaming. Max then pulls a needle out with a sedative.
"W-what is that?" Kate asked scared referring to the needle. Which she is terrified of.
"Don't worry it won't hurt a bit". Max said.
Kate then fought him off.
"No No I don't want it. Please no I don't like needles". Kate said.
She then fights him, she kicks him and punches him. But he sticks the needle in her arm and she goes to sleep.
"Now agents it's game time so let's play". Max said.
NCIS HQ
Everybody is at their desk and their hear Gibbs phone rings.
-Yeah Gibbs. We'll be right said.
"Boss what's up?" Mcgee asked.
"We're needed in MTAC. All of us". Gibbs said.
MTAC
"Here's the call agents". The assistant said.
"This is special agents Gibbs, Dinozzo, David, and Mcgee. Who's this?" Gibbs asked.
Grandpa Gibbs? Is that you? Kate asked.
"Katie? Are you okay?" Gibbs asked.
"I'm scared. Where's daddy?" Kate asked.
"I'm here baby girl. Are you okay honey?" Tony asked his scared daughter.
"I'm fine. I wanna go home. Are you guys gonna find me?" Kate asked.
"Yes we will Katie I promise you we will". Mcgee assured his niece.
"I love you guys". Kate said.
"We love you too". Gibbs said.
"Times up". Max said.
"NO! DADDY! UNCLE TIM! AUNT ZIVA! GRANDPA GIBBS!" Kate cried.
"Katie. Katie". Tony yelled.
"Hello again agents that was a touchy phone call". Max said.
"What do you want Ryder?" Mcgee asked.
"I told you. Revenge. Since you took my freedom by putting me in jail I thought I would return the favor by going after someone you all care about. I was thinking about the scientist what's her name oh yes Abby. But once I found out about agent playboy's daughter I knew she make a great target". Max said.
"Like I said before Ryder hurt my daughter in anyway I'll kill you". Tony threatened.
The phone is silent for a moment then a high scream fills the phone. Max had took a knife and cut her arm.
"Katie? Baby are you okay?" Tony asked.
"He cut my arm". Kate said crying.
"Ryder what is it that you want? Other than revenge". Gibbs asked.
"Since you brought it up agent Gibbs I want in return for this brat I want a plane ticket anywhere of my choosing, 50 million dollars,a new passport to get me out of the country, and a plane". Max said.
"We give you this we get Kate back unhurt". Gibbs said.
"Yes. As for unhurt can't agent playboy threatened me so I had to teach him a lesson through his little girl and that lesson was a cut on her arm". Max said.
After he said that the four agents growled. Ziva was cursing in Hebrew, Mcgee was tracking the call while swearing under his breath, Tony wanted to find this guy and wring his neck and suck the life out of his body, and Gibbs wanted to get a sniper and use all of the bullets on Ryder for hurting his granddaughter.
"When do you want to meet Ryder?" Tony asked.
"Tomorrow night at 12:00 midnight. Navy docks". Max answered.
"How are we suppose to get all that before than?" Ziva asked.
"I don't know and I don't care. If I don't get it, any of it let's just say little Kate will not be returned". Max said.
"DADDY HELP ME! DADDY? I WANNA GO HOME! Uncle Tim? Auntie Ziva? Grandpa Gibbs? Will you guys find me? I wanna go home. I want my daddy". Kate said crying.
"We will find you Katie I promise. We will find you baby girl". Mcgee assured his scared niece. "Kate just like Uncle Tim said we will find you. You are so brave just like your father". Ziva said. "Katie, baby we will find you I promise. Me, Uncle Tim, Aunt Ziva, Grandpa Gibbs, we all will find you baby I swear on my life". Tony assured his daughter.
"I love you guys". Kate said sniffing.
"We love you Katie". Tony said.
"Bye bye agents". Ryder said.
"NO DADDY! UNCLE TIM! AUNT ZIVA! GRANDPA GIBBS!" Kate cried.
"Kate? Katie? Katie? Great just great. I need some air". Tony said angrily.
"I'll go after him". Gibbs said.
"Did you find a trace Mcgee?" Ziva asked.
"Not an exact trace all I can say is that she is in the Virginia area I just don't know where". Mcgee said.
Meanwhile
"Tony? Tony? TONY!" Gibbs barked.
"WHAT?! Oh hey boss what's up". Tony asked.
"Are you okay? Don't give me that I'm fine bull crap". Gibbs said.
"No boss I'm not fine. My little girl, my angel, my princess is missing. I don't know what I do if I lose her. After her mother died I promised and swore I'd always look after her. Even when I was a cop it was hard to keep criminals away from her". Tony said.
"What are you talking about Tony?" Gibbs asked.
"Back when I was a cop she was a toddler. Every time I go after someone they always bring up Kate. I had this one case I had to go after a murdering drug dealer. I collared him and when he was on the inside he told one of his crew members to...kidnap Kate in exchange I let him go". Tony explained.
"Did you let him go?" Gibbs asked.
"We did a exchange. Once I got Kate she held on to me so tight she could have choked the life out of me. As well for the dealers they are all dead or still locked up serving a life sentence. After that Kate had nightmares for a month and a half and she followed me everywhere I went. Ever since that happened I'd been on the protective side. When she went to school I had a few people watch her carefully and report anything back to me. Now that I joined NCIS I made more enemies now than ever. That is why I couldn't name Kate one godfather or godmother. Trouble finds any of us and God forbid if anything happens I want to have a backup plan". Tony explained.
"You made the right choices for her Tony all of them". Gibbs said.
"Thanks boss". Tony said.
"Now let's go find this son of a bitch". Gibbs said.
