CHAPTER 10: Taken
All of a sudden Tony can hear ringing coming from is bedroom, shaken up realising what has happened, he runs to the bedroom and realises that
Kate's phone is ringing, he crosses the room picks up her bag and takes out the cell phone.
"Abs!" Tony says
"Hey Tony, did we have a good night then?" Abby says
"Abs, Kates gone!" Tony says panic stricken
"What do you mean she's gone? she is probably making you guys breakfast or something, you know what..."Abby says before being cut off
"Someone's taken her, my coffee table's broken there is blood everywhere and my front door been left open! some bastards taken her!"
tony says without taking a breath
"Ok Tony, stay there We'll come and get you!" Abby says tearfully
"Hurry Abs!" Tony says scared
The sound of the phone being put down rings in Tony's ears, is this really happening? i have waited forever to be with Kate and she is taken
away from me before we have a chance to experience anything together. Tony sits in the edge of his bed and waits for the team to arrive.
Three cars pull up and Gibbs, Veron and Abby are the first to enter the crime scene a.k.a. Tony's apartment, Ziva and Smith are next to exit
their car followed by McGee and Emma in the third car. they all head towards the apartment carful not to disturb the crime scene just incase
there is a slight peice of eveidence that could help them find Kate.
"I need this procesed like a crime scene, McGee bag and tag, ziva pictures" Gibbs barks his orders
"Smith scetch, and Emma help McGee bag and tag" Veron tells his agents
Gibbs, Veron and Abby make their way to Tony's bedroom, on seeing Tony, Abby hugs Tony.
"Abs, we need you to step away so we can process DiNozzo, you know the drill" Gibbs says calmly
"I know boss" Abby says letting go of Tony
"Boss, i'm sorry!" Tony says his head down looking at the floor
"I Know DiNozzo but i have to do this, its procedure" Gibbs says
"I understand boss" Tony says
After all the evidence is collected and Tony is showered, changed and more alive they all make their way back to the NCIS building, everyone
knows what to do it is a routine they have perfected for nearly 2 years and without any direction from Gibbs they all scatter to different areas
to help find and bring back Kate alive.
Kate lies on a bed still wearing the dress she wore last night only it is not on a neat and is dirty and has blood stains all over it, she opens
and struggles to adjust to the light coming through a small window in front of her, she is sweaty and dirty and has a vaigue memory of what
happened last night, she remembers being in a restaurant with DiNozzo going back to his place, having wine, music....
"Oh god! did i sleep with him?" she says out loud and hears her echo mimic the words back.
"Where the hell am i?" she asks herself
She tries to move but her hands and feet are tied to an old iron rusty bed, her head is throbbing and she now sees the blood stains on her
arms legs and dress, she sees that she has loads of tiny little cuts all over her and hse cannot remember for the life of her where she could
have got those cuts from.
"Hello?" she says her voice echoes around the room
"Hello? can anybody hear me?" she shouts only to hear herself as the question again and again.
Think Kate, What would Gibbs Do?, oh great i am now quoting DiNozzo, i should have just stayed home last night then i wouldn't be in this mess,
trust your instincts Kate, but no you had to go on a date with him, but it was a great date and he did look gorgeous. No Kate focus! gotta
find a way to get out of here, right first i got to get this chain off my wrists and legs.
After a few minutes of thinking, Kate's head throbbed, she wondered how much she had drank last night but couldn't remember how much she had drank
she heard a noise from somewhere, it was definately moving going from right to left and then back again, she waited a few seconds to see if it
returned and the second time she called out to see if the noise had been someone, anyone who could probably get her out of here.
"Hello?" she called again, nothing
"Hello, can you hear me?" she asked again
The noise stopped and she thought she heard someone breathing but she couldn't be certain as she had no idea where she was so she could have heard
the wind or breeze blowing through a crack in the window, a door or a wall.
After what seemed like an eternity Kate heard a door open and then close, she could hear footsteps coming towards her they were getting louder
and louder, closer and closer until she could hear them behind her and them coming to a stop just above her head. She shook as her kidnapper
showed his face to her and stroked her hair.
"Remember me Kate?" he said smiling
