Chapter 1: Catherine
I don't own anything!
Catherine had another argument with her parents before she had left for school that morning. She had not understood why they kept leaving her, her babysitter Mikal always asked her multiple questions about her father's line of work. She had never answered him, she thought that something wasn't right with her neighbour.
Catherine had remembered when Mary and John had adopted her. It was a week after her eleventh birthday when they had arrived, both dressed in military gear. Catherine had done everything to avoid them but John had spotted her as he was leaving the building. She was curled up under a tree with a pig and a panda teddy reading a book. She had been so engrossed with her book she had no idea that both Mary and John had talked to Elizabeth asking everything about little Catherine and if they could adopt her. At first Elizabeth was shocked to say anything, and even tried to make the couple to pick another child, any other child except her. It took an hour of negotiations in order for Elizabeth to finally admit defeat over the couple. When adopted they kept her name but changed Evans to Cullen. She had become Catherine Lousiana Cullen.
Catherine rushed out of the house with a huge slam of the door. She was wearing her black tank top, leather jacket, a pair of black Jean's and her favourite pair of boots with fur on them. She knew that Mr Anothony Dinozzo lived in his flat a few doors down and had probably heard the whole thing by now. Most people had heard their arguments by the time they had lived in the block of flats for a week. She had wanted to escape her pain of her parents finally telling her the truth….her parents were getting a divorce. Immediately she had shouted at both of her parents, grabbed the keys to her motorbike and floored it down the street. She had no idea that, that was the last time she was going to see her parents alive…..
Anthony dinozzo
He was beyond annoyed as he entered the NCIS marine building. His neighbours had been arguing again for the fourth time this week. This time resulted in the girl Catherine to run out of the building on her bike.
"Mc Goo please don't start arguing with Ziva today I have a headache and no Ziva it's not a hangover. My neighbours don't know how to keep their voices down when arguing." He exclaimed
"Okay Tony I won't" McGee said
"Gear up we have two dead marines in a flat!" Gibbs shouted as he grabbed his stuff from his desk.
"On it boss" Ziva, Tony and McGee said quickly.
As they drove in silence Tony realised they were at his building where he lived. But as they entered his complicated building he gutt was dreading what was the outcome. Immediately he thought about his neighbours or little Catherine who was now 16 years of age. He was scared something might have happened to her. As they grew closer to the door his fears became a reality. Scorch mark's were littered around the room covering every room. A family photo had blood on it, but a circle around Catherine's face. He immediately realise that the parents who were found in the hallway wasn't the intended victim...it was Catherine who the murderer wanted not her parents
