Abby and McGee furiously typed away after getting the security camera footage from the computer lab at Norfolk.
"Ok McGee, what time was the last one sent?" Abby commented, she was being more streamlined than usual, she wanted to find who was after her McGee and quick. Besides her caf-pow, no distractions.
"Um, Tuesday at 5pm." McGee retorted.
"Got it, but no good, the footage is all distorted, I can see two people barley, it will be hard to clean up. Let's see if one of the other times is better."
McGee nodded, "Next is from two weeks ago, Wednesday at 2pm."
Again Abby furiously typed. She stared at the computer screen in front of her, needing the clue to happen, needing to earn her caf-pow. "McGee, this picture is better." McGee looked up at the screen. "Looks like we have two girls and a guy in the lab at this time. I am going to speed it up and see if we can catch faces as they are leaving."
McGee nodded, maybe this would be it, they would get a face and a hit on facial recognition and it would be all over. They would bring her in and get her for murder and stalking a federal agent. Plus everyone would stop looking at him with pity, he didn't want to feel pitied that some women was killing people because of him, he wanted her stopped. Life at NCIS was never normal, but this was beyond what McGee felt was normal.
Abby had taken two different shots, she had got the guy and one of the girls. "Ugh, the other girl is covering up pretty well. I will send you and Tony the other two people, you could question them or maybe this other girl that I found is the one."
McGee rose his eyebrows, "we both know it's the one who is hiding, seems like she knows she is being watched." McGee sighed, "Thanks Abby, I will go tell the boss."
McGee, lost in thought, headed for elevator and nearly ran into Gibbs. He staggered back, "Sorry Boss, I was just coming for you, we found something."
Gibbs headed for Abby's lab without a word. McGee quickly followed in.
"What do you got Ab?" Gibbs said.
Abby turned around, "That was quick. Well we have facial recognition for 2 of the 3 people in the computer lab, we think the third is probably McGee's stalker and the killer but she covered her face well. However we could talk to the other two and see what we find out. Meet Petty Officer Mike Walker and Captain Marie Keller."
"Thanks Abbs, anything else?" Gibbs asked.
"Gibbs, one thing at a time. I am still trying to run the fingerprints found on Kent's jacket and nothing yet, so I have expanded the search. I will call if I get a hit. And I am looking into Marie Dent's life, so far all I am finding is that she was supposed to be going to a party on the night she died." Abby smiled and Gibbs gave her kiss and nodded at McGee to follow him.
Once in the elevator, there was silence between the two men. Gibbs was fine with the silence, it was never awkward for him. McGee on the other hand was desperately trying not to blurt out that he was creeped out and that he would rather not leave the Navy Yard. His mind raced, its one women, he could handle that even though two people are dead, he thought.
As they entered the squad room, McGee tried to shake off all the thoughts racing in his mind so he could focus.
Tony glanced up and noticed the brooding McGee, "Boss, it seems McGee's friend," McGee's eyes flashed at Tony's, "sorry stalker, has been very careful to avoid cameras, we checked the places that the photos were taken and all we got was shots of the back of her head or of the camera she was using. Most are long shots, but she did use her phone sometimes and in those cases she was extra careful to avoid cameras. Smart women." McGee sighed and rolled his eyes at Tony.
"Hmm," Gibbs said, "Anything else? Anything on Kent or Dent our two dead bodies?"
Ziva jumped in, "Both had emails a couple of days before their death inviting them to a party, now from what I can tell neither were big partiers but this was an invite for a birthday party for their captains at a house, which turns out to be abandoned. Also it appears there was more than one assailant, Abby found defensive wounds on both victims and it looks like Kent fought back and got skin cells, Abby says there are two different samples, and she is looking for DNA."
"Good work, all right, Tony and Ziva go talk to these two" He handed them a note, "they were both in the computer lab with another women we can't identify when the emails were sent to Tim. See what you can find out about her." Tony and Ziva nodded and grabbed their gear.
McGee sat down at his desk, he was upset hearing about all this, these people were dead because of him for some reason. What did he do? Did he lead a girl on recently, he couldn't think of any. He let out a small sigh and turned to his computer, he had gotten a new email.
"Boss, there is a new email for her, I will have Abby check to see if she is still in the lab."
Gibbs nodded, "What does this one say?"
"Check the car. Whatever that means." McGee stopped then suddenly lifted his eyes, "Tony and Ziva are going to a car."
Gibbs got on his phone and called Tony, "Check your car before you get in. Are you in?" McGee watched with growing anxiety. Suddenly Gibbs yelled in his phone, "Tony!"
