Chapter 3

Gibbs cursed mentally as he sat at his desk. The coffee hadn't helped. They had worked all day, gathering evidence to link anyone to the case.

"It's not polite to stare," Gibbs stated, his eyes never leaving the papers in his hands. "Jen…"

"So," Jenny acted as if there was no tension in the air. "Has Operation BLACK CAT reared its ugly head once again?"

"It appears to be that way Jen," Gibbs looked up. "Are you here to stare at me…or what?"

"Well I was going to tell you that I applied for a position as an agent here," she smirked. "But I can stare if you'd like?"

"Are you sure that's such a good idea Jen," Gibbs sighed. "I mean…what happened to Lauren…"

"Won't happen to me," Jenny said with confidence. "Lauren died with honor, her time was up, and when my time is up it will be, but for now I'd like to serve my community and my friends Jethro."

Gibbs couldn't believe the balls that woman had.

"S-Sarah…" Tony stammered, he was pale and shaking as he sat down on his couch. "Y-you should be dead…"

"Gee thanks Tony," Sarah laughed. "I REALLY take that as a compliment."

"O-ok so if you're not dead," Tony gulped. "Shouldn't you be…oh I don't know..an adult?!"

"Tony it's a long and complicated story alright," Sarah sighed and sat down next to him. "I will explain all I can in due time, but as of now, you're in more danger than you perceive."

"I know sister dear," Tony replied. "My boss told me."

"He doesn't know what I know and what I've foreseen," Sarah stared at him with all seriousness, Tony stared into her eyes, hadn't they been brown a few seconds earlier, they were crystal blue now, he shook it off as nerves. "There are people close to you who seek to ruin you and your family, I'm not talking about me or you but your NCIS family, and a person you trust and look to for leadership will betray you."

"Y-you don't mean…Gibbs?" Tony bit his lip.

"I didn't say him," Sarah spoke as if she were an oracle. "But someone…someone you least expect."

"That definitely puts my mind at ease Sarah…." Tony sighed. "Anyways…e-enough about me…what about you?"

"What about me?" Sarah sighed as well.

"Sarah it's been years," Tony explained. "Over thirty of them to be exact, why are you not…aged?"

"Tony," she cleared her throat and looked him straight in the eyes. "Do you believe in angels…?"

Drew stood in the break room with his cup of coffee. He stared intently at Carrie talking to other NCIS workers.

"Someone's focused." Ziva chuckled and joined him on the wall.

"Gotta do something," he shrugged and pulled his jacket up around him a little more. "Besides the sceneries nice…"

"You should tell her," Ziva smiled at him. "How you feel I mean?"

"I could never," Drew sighed. "Sure we hooked up once, but she doesn't want me…I've got baggage."

"Don't we all," Ziva said. "Drew everyone has a past, but if two people really love each other they accept each other's pasts and move on together."

Drew smiled at Ziva and she smiled back, the two studied each other's eyes for a few moments before Ziva left, leaving Drew to his thoughts.

"McGee," Vance said, tapping his fingers on the table in front of him. "How good of a hacker are you?"

"Uh…" McGee hesitated to answer.

"It's ok McGee," Vance smirked. "I know what Gibbs has made you do."

"Yes sir," McGee said. "I do believe I'm a pretty good hacker."

"Well then," Vance stood and paced behind him. "How'd you like to do something for me?"

"Sure," McGee stammered. "Name it..."

"How'd you like to hack Mr. Field's database for…" Vance stopped himself. "Personal reasons…I believe he's got information…need to know information."

McGee caught the director's eyes only once, but in them he saw something…something not so good. Vance was his superior though so he had to obey.

"Of course director," McGee stood and walked over to the doorway. "I'll be happy to oblige…"

"Good," Vance sat back down and popped a toothpick in his mouth. "Oh and McGee?"

"Yeah?" McGee gulped.

"Don't tell Gibbs." Vance replied.

Tony walked into the bullpen with Sarah next to him. She was wearing their grandfather's old aviator jacket and some beat up jeans, and her old vans. Gibbs and Ziva looked up as he walked in with a duffel bag and the girl next to him. Gibbs gave him a skeptical look and Ziva looked merely confused.

The girl plopped herself down at Tony's desk and begun to pick at her black nail polish.

"What?" Tony asked to Ziva and Gibbs.

"Who's this?" Gibbs asked.

"An informant," Tony replied. "She may look young, but I assure you…she's more than she appears to be."

Ziva cocked her head still confused, Gibbs seemed unconvinced, and Tony merely smirked.
