"Drop the gun Agent."
McGee turned around and dropped the gun. Then he rose his hands. "What do you want with me?"
"I want to see your boss squirm a little. Gibbs has something I want."
"And what is that exactly?"
"My son. He was arrested the other day. I want him released or your dead. And I need your boss to believe I'll do it. So I'll just mame you right now."
He pulled the trigger on the gun and shot McGee in the shoulder. He cried out and fell back. McGee immediately put his hand to his shoulder. He took a deep breath and looked up at the shooter.
Lance forced McGee up and dragged him inside the building. There were several other men loooing at a map on a wall, trying to figure out how to get this guy's son out of jail. Tim was forced to sit onto a chair. His hands were handcuffed behind his back. He grunted from his shoulder hurting. It hurt like hell. Next thing he knew, his mouth was taped up. He looked up angrily.
"Its so you don't talk to us while we work."
A camera was set up and it faced Tim. He looked down at his shoulder and it was still bleeding.
Abby was in her lab running around from computer to computer, typing and trying to figure out if a bullet was a match to a murder they had recieved earlier that day.
Suddenly, all her computers froze and turned off.
"Woah...What's happening?" She asked herself. "Come on. Don't do this to me." She said as she started typing really fast to figure out what was going on.
Gibbs walked into the lab and noticed the computers had shut off.
"What happened Abs?"
"I don't know Gibbs. They went all wacky on me."
While her back was turned to Gibbs, all the computers turned on again. But it wasn't at the screens they were on. Gibbs looked up and frowned.
"Abs! Your computers."
"What?"
She turned around and saw what appeared to besomeone tied up on a chair in the middle of a dark room.
"Oh my god. Who's that? Why is this showing up? Gibbs, did I miss something? What's going on?"
Gibbs approached the computer and said: "Can you zoom in on the face? I can't get a good look."
"Uh, yeah. Sure."
After typing on the computer, it zoomed in to reveal McGee.
"Oh my god! Its Timmy!"
"Can you trace this video?"
"I can try but I'm not Timmy. Something happened to him and you didn't tell me! What if we don't get him back? What if he's hurt? I'm going to kill him Gibbs."
She turned around and Gibbs was gone.
"I hate when he does that!"
Gibbs approached his desk and looked over at DiNozzo who was on the phone. "DiNozzo! Hang up and get down to the lab! Ziva, I need you to do McGee's job and find out if you can dig anything up on the video from the lab. See if there's anything important you can see that can help us track him down."
Before sny of them moved from their desks, the computer screen behind Gibbs turned off on its own. Gibbs knew what that meant. He turned to Ziva.
"Find out who's hacking into our computers."
Ziva went to McGee's desk and started typing. Then, a video was shown.
"Boss..." Tony said and approached the screen.
"I know Tony. Get to work. Since the video was brought to us, there's no need for you to go to the lab." Gibbs phone rang. It was an unknown number.
"Yeah...Gibbs."
"Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs...Nice to finally talk to you."
"Who's this?"
"I'm the one who has your agent."
"What do you want with him?"
"Its not what I want from him. Its what I want from you."
"And what is that?"
"You have my son. My son for your agent."
"Let me speak to McGee. I wanf to see how he's doing."
"Can't you tell by thd video I sent?"
"I want to hear it from him."
"Very well..."
McGee was tense. He tried to get out of the cuffs. His captor approached him and ripped off the tape.
"Now you want me to talk?"
"Your boss wants to know if your okay. Say anything wrong and I'll shoot you again."
He put the phone up to McGee's ear. "Don't forget...I will kill you if he doesn't comply."
McGee sighed and spoke into the phone. "Boss?" He questioned not really sure if that's who was on the other line.
"McGee! Are you okay? Have they hurt you at all?"
"I'm fine. At least, right now I am. Listen, he's made it quite clear that he'll kill me if you don't get his son out of jail."
"Its going to take a little bit it of time McGee. Think you can survive that long?"
"Uh, I think so. Just as long as my shoulder doesn't get infected, I'll be just fine."
"I thought you said you weren't hurt."
"I'm not...well, I am but not too bad. Just a flesh wound."
"Don't lie to me again or I'll smack you when you get back."
