History Repeats Itself

History And Present Secrets

Hello, everyone! This is a story my dad and I came up with it back in the summer of 2020 and I have been working on it ever since!

I'm glad to have managed to finish this entirely so I will upload a chapter a day!

I hope you all enjoy this! It's the first time I'm writing something like this!

I dedicate this story to my dad!

Enjoy!

History repeats itself, it's a known fact. Now, if you don't see it then you're a fool and if you do then you realize that you are trapped in a never-ending cycle.

Leroy Jethro Gibbs never managed to see his wife and daughter's caskets being open and apparently there wasn't an open casket ceremony because their bodies were beyond repair. He managed to get to the service minutes before they lowered them to the ground and he requested a moment to say goodbye himself.

Shannon and Kelly Gibbs were dead.

Dead to him and to the world.

But pictures worth a thousand words or do they?

February 25th, 1991: Mid-day: Medical Examiner's autopsy room in METRO Police Station.

Doctor Paul Malcolm Severide was finishing up some papers on a case he had closed when two bodies appeared on his medical tables. He was told of the case of a murder of a mother, daughter, and NIS agent.

With a heavy heart, he decided to start the autopsy of the young girl when he unzipped the body bag and saw the eight-year-old girl with strawberry red hair and dirty face and clothes with blood he winced and tried to wipe some bloody hair out of the girl's face when the little girl gasp!

Doctor Severide almost had a heart attack as he checked the girl's pulse, weak but there. They confused her for dead!

He didn't know what to do when the girl's eyes fluttered open and locked eyes with the medical examiner as she gasped and with horror, in her eyes, she sat up and winced as she looked around her in a panic.

The doctor gave her a water bottle and introduced himself trying to calm the young girl.

The young girl and the Doctor sat on the floor of the autopsy room as the young girl sobbed as memories of the events that took place crashed on her and the death of her mother pained her.

The doctor asked questions trying to understand what happened while checking the case report he was given along with the bodies and he knew what he had to do. He had to protect this girl, he called his wife Mandy and asked her to come to the autopsy.

Mandy and Paul watched as the girl was looking at her mum's dead body and was silently crying while saying her goodbyes before Paul started the autopsy.

"She needs to be in witness protection, Paul." Mandy scolded her husband and he nodded.

"Can you tell your brother, Jackson, to make something happen?" Paul asked in hopes of his brother-in-law to use his FBI clearance to do something that would give this girl a second chance at a normal life.

Mandy sighed and promised she would call him.

Agent Jackson Curran, older brother of Mandy Severide (nee Curran) and part of the FBI was having a relatively easy and ordinary day of paperwork when he stood up to get more coffee which resulted in him seeing his little sister at the coffee stand he usually was getting his coffee from.

Holding hot cups of coffee Mandy took her brother to her husband's work and showed him the young girl who was now exhausted sleeping curled on Paul's chair with his jacket as a blanket.
