A Tear In A Heart (Part 2)

~DiNozzo's POV~

Gibbs is dying. He's getting weaker and weaker. A steady stream of blood is running out of the corner of his mouth.

"Gibbs? Can you hear me?" I ask. No response. "Gibbs?!?" He moves his head a little. That's good, he's responding. "Can you get up?" I ask. He shakes his head no. "We are going to pick you up Gibbs. Ok?" He nods. I grab one arm, McGee the other, and Bishops runs to open a path. Aram hads disappeared, and I don't even care. I just care that Gibbs will be ok. As an agent you have to give up a lot of things like family, but then your co-workers become just that. And you can't help but care. Gibbs starts hacking, coughing like crazy. He is choking on blood.

"I'm here!!" Ducky yells. He comes over as fast as he can, "How is he doing?"  He ask us.

"He's dying, Ducky," Bishop whispers.

           ~Gibbs POV~

She's yelling for help. Shannon is dead in my arms, and Kelly is getting close. Another woman is screaming too. No, two of them, three of them. Its Kate, Jenny, and Ziva. They are being tortured, killed. I shut my eyes hard, not wanting to see anymore. My breath is coming out in low gasps, almost sobs. Tears streak down my face. I lost them once, and I don't want to again.

          ~McGee's POV~

Gibbs is muttering something that I can't make out. It sound like names.

"Kelly...Ziva...Jen..." A few more are said. It sounds like a list of names, dead people's name.

"Boss can you hear me?" An obvious question that I have already asked.

          ~Gibbs POV~

Some one is speaking.

"Boss," the sound is blurry, like speaking from underwater, "Can you hear me?" My eyes are still shut, but I manage to nod.

"Jethro," it's Ducky. Then I realize it is me that is underwater. I'm being choked. I start gasping for air and feel a few hands pull me up.

"Gibbs?" I think it's DiNozzo, maybe. I try to open my eyes, and see two things flash.

Tony, McGee, Ducky, and Bishop all looking down at me, and then fire. I smell smoke. And then I hear someone yell. I'm thrusted into the air, being lifted up on my feet.

"Can you walk Boss," McGee ask.

"Maybe," is all I manage to say. Pain shoots up and down me. There is a small throb on my neck. I take a few steps with tremendous effort. They start running, and I get dragged. Once we are out of the building, I realize, the place is on fire. I take gulps of breath, only to get smoke. I start coughing uncontrollably.

"Boss, hold on," Tony says. All of a sudden the ground lurches upwards and we are all thrown in different directions. My head slams agains the ground. I hear screams.

I open my eyes and see the others lying on the ground. An explosion destroyed the building. The ground starts to tip and fades to blackness.
