Daddy's Girl-An NCIS Story

Struggle

Ziva woke up, stood up quickly, and ran to the car. She opened it and hugged Eli and Jackie for a moment and grabbed a lighter. She then ran to the garbage bin and lit the garbage on fire and ran aboard the ship as the crew ran off, scrambling to put out the fire. She ran up and down the hallways silently. She then caught a glimpse of Ilan and screamed at him.

"Ilan! Why? Why did you come here? Just to kill them? Or to kill me? Take your shot! You were never Eli's son," Ziva screamed, tears streaming down her face.

Ilan smiled and pulled her by her hair up to the top deck. It was at that point everything made sense to Ziva.. Ilan was trying to kill off the David family in hopes of being elected to the directors chair of Mossad. He must of had to kill Jackie because she would have been able to identify him. He then smacked Ziva, snapping her back into reality. He then threw her to the floor. Ziva's phone rang. Ilan Picked it up and shoved it to Ziva's ear.

"Gibbs! Please help me! Ilan has me held at the boat deck, top floor! Hurry," Ziva pleaded.

Ilan then hung up and threw the phone in the water. Ziva silently cursed. Ilan then picked her up by her hair. She struggled, and he smiled, then punched her firmly in her stomach. She screamed out in pain and tumbled to the ground. He landed on top of her as she rolled onto her back. Ilan grabbed a screwdriver and held it above her neck. Ziva was forced to use both her forearms to hold the screwdriver away from her neck. She mustered up the strength to throw him off her. She then hit him in the head with a fire extinguisher. He fell to the ground. She picked him up and threw him overboard onto the crates below. The team was walking up the ramp as he hit the crates. They briefly looked at him, then looked up. Ziva's head popped up as she wiped her blood off her face. The blood from her face trickled down, some into her mouth. It tasted like vomit to her, so she quickly spit it out. Then the wind howled, as if congratulating Ziva for her victory.
