Ok so this is another Jibbs story for yours truly, why would I really write anything else? This was an idea given to me by my sister RUMad so I want to thank her for this amazing idea.
It's very AU so I'm not sure if your still going to like it but I hope some of you do.
For this story Shannon and Kelly never existed, sorry if that offends any of you, so this is set when Gibbs was in Desert Storm and Jenny is a struggling reporter or journalist.
Also I don't know very much about the war so I have looked it up but I will probably still make mistakes so that's a warning so I would prefer if people would nick pic later on about it.
Anyway Enjoy.

Semper-fi
The sun was hot on his face, he looked up into the sky, there was no cloud to be seen, , there was no shade to be found just the sun up in the sky taunting him so had no choice other than to stand in the sweltering heat.
He was surprised how much time seemed to pass so quickly while he was away from home, well this was his home now, what did he have back in Stillwater, only his father, the very man that had told him not to join the marines and look at him now, he was a gunnery sergeant in the sniper unit.
Gibbs didn't have anyone else to come home to, he didn't have a person he loved, he didn't have a girl waiting for him, to send him letters, to think about him, for him to think about them, he was kind of lonely.
That was why the Marines meant so much to him, why he put so much effort into protecting his country. He was risking his life so others could live there's safely and that's what drove him.
Today he was going to be reunited with his troops who were coming in by helicopter before they were all supposed to get into the arm vehicles and then head to the US marine base and there was where they were supposed to wait for their next orders, at least it meant that he could soon get a good night sleep, well if he didn't have the nightmares.
So there he stood waiting for the helicopter to arrive, he could hear the sounds of it's blades swiping, coming closer. He looked up to the sky once more, squinting his eyes in the sun, a moments later he lifted his hand to block it, to give him a little shade.
He stepped back as the helicopter came into view and made it clear they were going to land, he then looked away, shielding his eyes from the sand that the wind from the helicopter blades cutting through the air, getting in his eyes.
Moments later the helicopter finally landed and Gibbs made his way over to it even though the blades were still spinning "Gunny" Gibbs looked up to see his buddy Mark hopping out of the helicopter, they had been friends since meeting in boot camp and both had no one else other than the marines.
He walked over to Mark and patted him on the back "How you been Gunny?" the slightly younger man asked Gibbs.
"Same as normal Mark" Gibbs smiled at him patting him on the back as well.
"At least we'll be able to get a hot shower soon" Mark chuckled.
"Yeah" Gibbs nodded as the rest of the troop got off of the helicopter, he then noticed someone who shouldn't be there.
"Who the hell is that?" Gibbs asked turning to Mark, he then turned around and saw who Gibbs was looking at, the minute Mark had met the person in question he knew they would catch Gibbs' eye.
"That" Mark smiled "Is a reporter, here to cover the war back to the people back home" he explained.
"The hell she is" Gibbs pushed his friend out of the way and made his way over to the redheaded women,
Just as he was about to open his mouth she turned around to face him "Can I help you?" she asked him, her green eyes all of a sudden looking at him, it was almost as if she could see right through into his soul, he was taken by surprise so much that he momentarily forgot how to speak or what he was thinking. She gave him a small smile before turning back to her camera man "You can set up here" she assured him.
Gibbs' thoughts then came rushing back, he then tapped her on the back, "What" the women turned to him, anger evident in her eyes.
"You can't set up here" Gibbs informed her.
"I beg to differ" she shook her head before pulling a letter from the pocket of her shorts and handing them to him.
It informed Gibbs that he and his troop had to have this women, who he now knew as Jennifer Shepard, follow them around and report the war back to the people at home and that they had to look after her. He groaned before handing the letter back to her.
"This is also a civilian area and I'm a civilian" she motioned to the area around them that was civilian "Now unless you want to be in the shot, I would move" Jenny gave Gibbs a sickly sweet smile.
Gibbs groaned at her before moving out of camera shot, "Ok" Jenny cleared her throat before moving her fringe out of her eyes.
"OK and we're rolling" the camera man held up three fingers then two and then finally one and then pointed to her.
Just as Jenny opened her mouth and was about to talk, there came an all mighty blast, Jenny felt an extreme heat on her skin before she was knocked to the floor and everything went black.
What do you think? Kind of rubbish how I wrote it, do you want more?
