It was almost seven o'clock Monday night. A hand full of Pizza boxes lay strewn across the floor. There was no room for them on the desks, as there were piles of papers everywhere. They had only been able to go through about a quarter of the papers when Gibbs' phone rang.

"Gibbs." Everyone sat in silence as Gibbs hung up his phone and stood. "Gear up. Dead Marine, Rock Creek Park. DiNozzo call Ducky." Looking at Daniel and the Marines he said, "Well come on, let's go." Gibbs grabbed his cup as she started for the elevator. Everyone else jumped up and hurried to catch up with him.

"Is he always like this?" Towen asked.

"Yep." Tony replied with a grin, after hanging up with Ducky.

Towen turned to Daniel, "Are we sure he isn't related to the General?"

Daniel snorted and smiled trying not to laugh, while looking at Gibbs, who was glaring at Towen. "Nah, I think the world would have known by now, if that was the case."

"One of them would have killed the other." Reynolds added with a straight face from behind Daniel.

Daniel gave a quick chuckle and glance towards Reynolds before looking at Gibbs again. After a moment of thought he said, "No, I think it would be the rest of us that would be in trouble, not the other way around."

"Great, just what we need. Two Generals." Towen mumbled under his breath so no one would hear but Daniel. Daniel just smiled at him as he took in the confused faces of everyone around him. Looking at Tim he saw he had an amused expression. Tim knew what Daniel meant.

When they got to the lot Gibbs announced, "DiNozzo, Towen take the truck. McGee, Ziva, Daniel, Colonel, you four, with me."

The ride to Rock Creek was a silent one until Tim turned to Daniel. "Hey, how about Yellow Stone. Or, the Grand Canyon?" Tim asked with an excited tone. Daniel looked at him before replying.

"I was thinking more like the Parthenon, or the great Pyramids." Daniel tried really hard not to smile at the look of shock Tim was giving him.

Reynolds leaned over and asked what the remaining three in the car wanted to know, "What?"

"We're trying to figure out where we want to take our vacation."

"What!" Tim had finally found his voice. "Really? I wasn't thinking 'other side of the world', but heck yeah." Tim had a dazed look for a minute until he frowned. "Though, I don't know if I can afford something like that." He said looking at Daniel.

Daniel just rolled his eyes, "Yeah, don't even go there."

"You are not paying for my trip!" Tim exclaimed.

"So we figure that out later." Daniel shrugged.

"Okay, okay." There was a moment of silence until Tim grabbed Daniels arm and asked, "Egypt? Really? We can really go there?"

"Only if you would like too." Daniel smiled. "I wouldn't mind going back. It's been a really long time."

"Yes! Yes, let's do it. Please?" Tim looked like a kid on Christmas morning. He was so excited he was shaking Daniels arm with the grip he had.

"Alright. We'll talk about it more later, okay?" Daniel said laughing.

"Yes!" Tim said pumping his fist's into the air. Catching his Boss' look in the mirror he took a deep breath, "Sorry Boss." He ducked his head and saw Daniel doing the same. They both winked and grin to each other.

A/N: Okay so a really, really, really short chapter. But the next will lead us more into the investigation, so I figured it would be a good stopping spot.
