For this fic, I kept the main parts of season 18 canon the same, and the main change is the Bishop-leaking documents storyline. So, other aspects of the finale like with Gibbs and his boat, and Ellie being trained by Odette is the same but I tried to make the storyline more true to her character and also added my own interpretations of what happened in prior events. I don't know how many parts there are going to be or when I will post each one, so thank you for your patience and I will upload new chapters as soon as I finish them. This whole story is just a perspective I have of a possible alternate plot point for the S18 finale that I hope feels more in character and is enjoyable. Also, there will of course be plenty of Ellick! :)
    
    Quick Summary/Introduction: Classified documents have been leaked from the NSA and all signs point to Ellie Bishop. However, she is not at all responsible as it goes against everything she is and believes in. So the question remains, who actually released the intel and why would they frame Ellie? And what is going on with Nick that he isn't sharing with her? They might be able to finally express to each other their true feelings and have a chance at a future together, or Bishop will be punished for a crime she didn't commit and never be able to return to her life as an NCIS special agent.All Rights Reserved
