This was a beautiful story. There were times when I wanted to headslap McGee for thinking the way he was, but I’m glad Gibbs got there in time.

Now it’s 1am and I should have been asleep two hours ago.

Well done my friend!

Lovely. A really good read.

Excellent story. You have great writing skills.

Hi again, This story was seriously amazing! You kept the story progressing from a very good start, and never let up. By moments I felt so sorry Tim had to go through it all. But it was worth it, to see justice triumph. It felt right for Tim to not switch from depressive to happy just at the arrestation of David and Lawrence. And I liked that Tony, Ziva, and Abby made sure that his car would be repaired, giving Tim a wonderful surprise at the end.
I would never have suspected such depth to 'Deep Six', and you made it so believable! But the irony that 'Rock Hollow' would not be personal is a foreshadowing of great turmoil (even greater than we've seen on the show).
Thank you for a great read!

Hi, with your latest story so engrossing, I went looking for another story of yours, and found this one. I totally love it so far! When you explained the names of the bullies, I went and checked McGee's teenage alias Ballot, and found "Nerd". Very clever indeed!

Gibbs looked up.
"Over?" he asked.
"Yeah, Boss. It's over."
Time to move forward Tim no staying in the past.

Great story. Loved the troubled times from Tim's past that crashed headlong into Tim's present. Tim got over his fears and learned to rely not only on his team but himself too. He stumbled through low self worth and irrational fault claiming thoughts to come out in the end a stinger person than his tormentors.

Thank you for creating this well written story and sharing it with us readers!

No McGee the good is still happening. Glad that Detective Warner talked with Tim and let him know he didn't blame him. Hope Tim takes it to heart and doesn't discount it.

Tim don't you do it! Don't go off on your own. Hopefully Tony and Ziva are still watching David.

Ha! How you like that Louis!? McGee did awesome standing tall even though he was nervous.

I know Tim was relieved to hear this after so long "What I'm saying is that you were right and we may be able to prove it."

Ducky smiled. "On whether or not Timothy can remember his own value."

That's hard for anyone to do. People put others before themselves and tend to forget their worth.

Tim looked at him, looked away and then back at him.

"Do you really not think less of me, seeing all this?"

"You think I should?"

"Yes."

That simple answer told Gibbs a lot about how Tim was thinking of this whole mess.

It was all his fault.

"No."

Gibbs tells it like it is.

These mofo are DEAD! I want them dead I want their family dead I want their pets dead hell I even want their mailman dead just by association. Okay I went overboard with the pets it's not their fault their owners are douchebags! lol Please please PLEASE let Tim be ok.

It's just like Tim to fight for justice for others but not for himself. Ducky made a valid point, he's been fighting and losing to bullies for a long time and doesn't see a point when it comes to himself. Really hope if Gibbs backs off he listens to that famous "gut" and still keeps an eye on him. Once again I think David is the most dangerous of the two. He knows how to get what he wants and seems to have patients unlike most criminals. The sneaky smooth bastard! lol So not only am I telling you what I like from Killing the Monster but also Deep Six. This part "Do you believe me? I need to know."
"Why?"
"Because no one believes me, and Sandy deserves to be remembered right. She didn't kill herself! Do you believe me?" that is Tim as a child/teenager fighting for someone to just believe him and it's incredibly sad. Great chapter!

Why do I have a feeling someone else will be driving his car!?
I guess I'll have to read more to find out what happens. :)
