Will You Take Care of Me?

Found

Gibbs reached out his arm and wrapped it around his wife. She turned back to look at him. "Good morning," she said with a grin as she gave him a peck on the lips.

"How's my girl and my baby?"

"We are just fine." She smiled down at her small baby bump and then back at him. He kissed her on the forehead.

"What did I ever do to deserve you?" He asked. Her smile turned to a look of pain.

"You don't. You put me and our child in danger. You didn't project us. Why didn't you protect us, Jethro?" She said with tears in her eyes.

Gibbs awoke from his nightmare to the ringing of his phone. "McGee, it's four o'clock in the morning, what's goin' on?"

"Bishop, Boss, she's awake. They say she's out of the woods and they'll move her out of ICU later today." Gibbs quickly threw on some clothes and drove to the hospital. When he arrived, he walked past the waiting room and went straight to the front desk.

"Eleanor Bishop?"

"Right this way, sir." A nurse showed him to the room.

"Bishop..." He walked over and sat on the edge of her bed. "You're okay..." She leaned up to hug him.

"I guess Jack was right."

"What'd you say?"

"I said Jack was right. She told me I would be okay." Ellie told him.

"When was this, Bishop?" He asked.

"I'm not sure, I've lost track of time, but it was shortly after I was kidnapped."

"So she's okay?" He wondered. Ellie nodded.

"I don't think the woman intends to hurt Jack unless things don't go her way."

"What are you talkin' about, Bishop? Tell me what happened."

"A man shot me when Nick and I got to the house.  He put me in a room and that's where Jack was.  The woman, who I think was the primary kidnapper told Jack that I would be okay if she did what she wanted.  And for some reason, she had the idea that I was Sloane's daughter."

"Can you describe this woman?"

"Late forties, reddish hair, and her name was Vanessa.  Sloane called her by name as if she knew her." As she finished, McGee walked in and they greeted each other.  "Hey guys..." she said after a few minutes.  "Where's Nick?"

"McGee, fill her in.  After you two talk for a few minutes, I need you at the office. I think we've got our kidnapper." McGee nodded. Before Gibbs left the hospital, he stopped by Nick's room, knocking lightly on the door.

"Door's open." Nick called.

"Torres," a small smile came to Gibbs' face.  "You look like you're feelin' better."

"Yeah, but what about Bishop?"

"Just woke up and she's already askin' about you."

"Does she remember anything that happened?" Gibbs nodded.

"She gave a description and name for the kidnapper. McGee and I are gonna head to the office and see what we can find about her."

After updating Vance, Gibbs came down to the bullpen. "Tim, what've you got?"

"Vanessa Hale, 48 years old. She's the wife that Torres and Bishop went to talk to the other day."

"Any idea where she might be keeping Jack?"

"Not yet, Boss." As he said this, his phone beeped. "Boss, I got a text from Bishop."

"What'd she say?" McGee read the text to Gibbs and responded to Bishop.

B: Daniel. Captor. Works for Vanessa.

M: Thanks.

"Alright McGee, find any connections you can between Vanessa Hale and anyone named Daniel."

"Got it, Boss."

A few hours later, Kasie came running into the bullpen. "McGee! Where's Gibbs? I think I've got our guy."

"Right here, Kas." Gibbs said as he walked in. "What've you got?"

"Jimmy had me run the DNA from the body you found in Vanessa Hale's house. I ran it through the military database and found one Petty Officer Martin Camden."

"How does Camden connect to our kidnapper?"

"I wasn't finished yet. I also ran his DNA against some I found on Bishop's clothes."

"And?" Gibbs was starting to get impatient.

"It was a familial match. I searched to see if Petty Officer Camden had any relatives in the area and he did. A brother. Dan Camden."

"That would be Daniel..." McGee said as he started typing something into his computer.

"McGee, I want an address."

"Already got one, Boss."

***

"NCIS, open up." Gibbs shouted, knocking on the door. "Mr. Camden, open up!" When no one came, Gibbs kicked in the door and started searching the house.

"Bedrooms are clear, Boss." McGee called.

"So is the rest of the house."  Suddenly, they heard someone scream.

"Sounds like it came from over there." McGee pointed to a door in the corner that they hadn't noticed before and walked over to it.  The two agents held up their weapons and slowly opened the door, which led to a staircase.

"Help!  Down here!" They heard a voice call from the bottom of the stairs.  The two hurried down the stairs. When they got there, they saw a teenage boy standing next to a woman who they were sure was Vanessa unconscious on the floor.

"Are you okay?" McGee asked him.

"I am, but she's not.  You've got to help her." He nodded towards a figure lying in the shadows on the floor in the corner of the room.  Gibbs ran over and knelt beside her.  Her face was covered in bruises.

"Jethro..." Jack breathed.

"Jack, Jack are you alright?" Gibbs lifted her up to where she was laying against his arm.

"I don't know..." She said weakly. "No..."
