CHAPTER 22: TIME IS RUNNING OUT
Gibbs, Veron, Tony, Kate, Ziva, McGee and Vicky are in the bullpen they are discussing the best plan of attack to get Abby and Emma back, the director is standing
outside of MTAC watching the two teams becoming one huge crime fighting machine.
"Kate and Tony take the south entrance, Veron and Vicky take the west entrance, McGee and Ziva take the east entrance and the Director and I will take the north
entrance, everyone clear on that?" Gibbs asks the group
"Got it" They all say in unison
"Will you be joining us Director?" Veron asks his back to her
"Ready when you are" The director says stunned how Veron could have known she was standing there
"Lets go get our girls" Gibbs says and they all load their weapons and put on their protective gear
They arrive at the warehouse to the sound of gunfire and bullets ring out as they hit the windsheild of Gibbs' car as he approaches the front of the warehouse. The others
are all in position around the warehouse ready to move in.
"How did you know that they were being held here?" The director asks
"Ziva and Vicky spotted them on the way to interview a suspect" Gibbs says in a hushed tone
The groups all go into position and start making their way towards the building, guns raised and held out in front of them. Veron and Vicky are the first to reach their
position as they anounce to everyone through the headsets.
"Veron and Smith in position, standing by" Veron says whispering
"DiNozzo and Todd in position, ready on your mark boss" Tony says
"McGee and Ziva in position boss" McGee says
"In position any visuals?" Gibbs asks
"Negative" Veron says
"Negative boss" Tony says
"We have a visual on the east entrance, female" McGee says
"No body move untill we get confirmation of the target" Gibbs says
"I think it is Agent Minion" Ziva says
"You THINK agent David" Gibbs says in an angered tone
"Visual confirmed as Agent Minion boss" Ziva says
"On my mark move in" Gibbs says "Go, go, go"
It felt like she had been in this same room for days, she had only been there for about 6 hours but it had felt so much longer, she was hungry which was no surprise as she could
eat more than anyone had ever before and now she was eating for two she could use that as an excuse to eat more. She looked over into the corner of the room and tried to focus
on the figure in the corner, she squinted and best she could but it just seemed to be a black figure which could have been a woman or man or the bastards that had taken her
from the hospital bed she has no comfortably resting in.
"Who's there?" Emma called out into the darkness aiming the question at the figure
"Emma?" she heard back the voice groggy and slow
"Abby?" Emma said hoping it wasn't
"Yeah its me, i thought you were dead!"
"Nah a little bomb won't stop me!" Emma said smiling and letting out a laughing sigh
"I'm so glad you are ok, i was worried when the bomb went off that you didn't make it out in time" Abby said trying to stay concious
"I didn't make it out, you should see my face and hands they are so messed up" Emma said still feeling the burn on her skin
"Why did you save me even though you could have been killed?" Abby asked closing her eyes
"It was my fault that we were even in that position, a crazy guy I had an affair with a while back tried to kill me and used the lab as a prime setting"
She heard no responce from Abby and kept trying to talk to her but still Abby didn't respond, suddenly she heard what she assumed sounded like gun fire, but it was far away it
seemed untill she could hear footsteps running towards the room they were in. The door opened and David and Agent Best entered the room and loaded their guns, David armed
with a shotgun and Agent Best had her FBI sig, Amy walked up to Abby and slapped her hard across the face a couple of times waking her up.
"Bitch!" Abby screamed trying to free herself from the restraints
"Leave her alone!" Emma shouted
"I don't think it is very sensible for you to be shouting and stressing your out or something horrible may happen to the baby" David said snidely
"Who are you to talk? i am surprised your sober enough to even stand!" Emma shot back
"Little Whore!" David said grabbing Emmas hair and pulling her head back towards his face
"Easy David we want her calm for the happy ending!" Craig said walking out from the shadows
"You son of a bitch!" Emma screamed at Craig
"I heard your little conversation before with Abby and i don't think you told her all the truth" Craig said kneeling in front of Emma
"What is going on here?" Abby asked
Craig walks over to Abby and unties her, grabbing her arms and binding her wrists he pulls her over to where Emma is. He throws Abby onto a chair and ties her to it and moves it
in front of Emma so they can see each other.
"Its time that everyone knew the truth about Emma Harvey the little Home wrecker" Craig says
