"Fern please, you couldn't handle all of this, I am an unhandleable masterpiece."

"Really Deeks that's not even a word! Oh and..." Kensi swings round and punches Deeks in the arm before waltzing over to her desk and look over at her partner.

"Don't call me Fern" The anger in her voice clearly fake

"Trouble in paradise Callen watch your back" Sam whisper yells to his partner of 6 years. Before Callen has the chance to reply they heard the tremendous thud of Eric thundering down the stair, as they look up it becomes clear that Eric has tears streaming down his face.

In appearance Eric would seem to be the weakest of the group but anyone who knew him knew that emotionally he was the strongest you could ever meet so to see him in such a state had the group on their feet in a second.

"OPS now... Nell's been kidnapped." Eric's words were barely audible as the realization that this was actually happening sank in and he collapses forward, only just being caught by Deeks, whimpering and sobbing. All the team could do was let the word sink in and wait for Eric. After a minute or two Eric calms down and sprints up to OPS with the rest of the team hot on his tail. 

Once everyone is in OPS Hetty begins the de-brief.

"We received this video 10 minutes ago via a terrorist website AIWTWB or Allah Is With Those Who Believe. It was uploaded an hour ago, please be aware what it contains is not pleasant... Eric, if you would."

The video appears on the main screen. 

Nell is strapped to a chair with zip-ties and rope by her wrists and ankles and her head was resting on her chest, she was awake but was too exhausted to lift her head. She has deeps red gashes in her legs, arms and stomach and her clothes were in pieces,

A man walks on the screen with a hockey mask on and all black clothing the only part of him showing are his eyes and his mouth. 

"Hello there NCIS, as you can see I have your beloved friend Nell Jones here" With this he grabs her hair and pulls her head up

"My apologies for the damage we had some mild... communication issues shall we say" He cackles and pushes his hand on the deepest of her wounds ripping a blood-curling scream from the intelligence analyst. A scream that made everyone including Hetty cower slightly from the screen and caused Eric to start sobbing again. 

"She will be released in 48 hours, however it is up to you whether she goes to the hospital or the morgue. Unless you release our fearless leader Akan Almar from your prison and bring him to the location that will be given in 40 hours poor Miss Jones here" He lifts her head again and stares straight into the camera 

"will be leaving in a body bag" With that he shuts of the video. 

Kensi is the first to break the silence with a jolt

"Eric go back to where he lifts her head for the final time, she mouthed something at the camera!"

Kensi read the slight movements of Nell's lips as she tries to decipher what she is saying

"She said, Looks like your rockstar needs that help Wolfram, what the hell does that mean?"

"NELL JONES YOU'RE A GOD DAMN GENIUS" Eric shouted before darting to his computer and furiously tapping at the keyboard seemingly oblivious to the strange looks everyone is throwing his way.

"Care to fill us in Mr Beale?" Hetty asked a little impatiently to say the least.

With those words onto the main screen appears a location, a warehouse seemingly in the middle of nowhere.

"Rockstar is Research Of Core Kept Secret To Attain Respect, basically anything Nell knows that she thinks would cause you to think differently of her is kept here, I came up with the name, she has been there several times a week for the last few months. She was working on something important but every time I asked she said it was fine and if she needed help she would ask"

"Why didn't you tell us we could have helped god dammit!" Callens temper was wearing thin, his worst fear was someone dying and knowing he could have helped.

"Callen all I knew was what she told me, she told me she was safe I believed her, OK! Just like you would believe Sam so if you're going to have a go for trusting my partner then you can think twice!" With that he spun on his heal so he was facing the whole team and with a ferocious outburst yelled at the team to get out and find his partner. All were taken aback by this, darting out the door to the location on their phones.

Hetty step closer to Eric and rested her hand on his arm as he broke down again.

 "I can't lose her Hetty I can't" 

"And you wont Mr Beale but this attitude isn't going to help" Her tone was firm yet motherly "We will find her and we will get her back" Hetty left OPS seemingly very composed but feeling very fragile and afraid. 

Eric returned to his computer to try an figure out Nell's location but was quickly interrupted by Hetty's parting words

"Mr Beale, people are more likely to survive when they have something or someone to hold on for and Miss Jones does."

"What's that Hetty"

"She has you told hold on for Mr Beale now find her!" Those word were exactly what Eric needed. He wasn't going to let this man getting away with hurting his rockstar and he sure as hell wasn't going to let her die!
