Kensi was very quiet the whole time she sat in the car. Deeks was at her side and he spoke about his dog Monty. He was as talkative as always while Kensi wasn't speaking or even listening. After he asked her a question and she didn't answer he looked at her for a moment. She was nervous and her hands were clamped around the steering wheel. Her knucklenone was white. "Hey, Kensellina, what's wrong? Is everything okay?"

Kensi looked at him for a short moment before she looked back at the street. ,,Sure, yeah, everything is alright. Its just that... I don't know. I have a bad feeling about this msision. My gut feeling os rebelling against this job." Deeks nodded. "No wonder that you are so nervous but everything will be alright, okay? We will just i interview a few witnesses. Fallen and Sam will be there too. We will take care of each other." He laid his hand on her tigh. A smile crept on her face. "Thank you Deeks. I love you don't forget that!" Deeks grinned. "That sounds much better. I love you too. You're my sunshine and gunpowder."

Kensi parked her car between Callens and Sams cars. She leaned forward and pressed her lips at Deeks' lips. Seems smiled and kissed her back. The kiss became passionate. A sudden knock on the window frightened them and they jumped in their seats. Callen stood grinning in the now open door and laughed. "I must say that you two are sweet together but we have a job to do so out the car. And a bit faster."

Still laughing he turned around and went away. Kensi squeezed Deeks hand. He whispered. "Everything is okay. I love you."
The moment they were at the side of Callen and Sam they could see a half collapsed house. Sam appraised the debris. Callen looked around and came back. "Deeks you are coming with me. We should let the bomb and fire professionals do their work. We can look around in the warehouse.

Deeks jogged to Callen. "Oh please, since when is Kensi a bomb professional?" Callen hit him in the arm. "Don't let her hear this. It could end deadly. She passed the test. You didn't." Deeks was a little bit confused. Since when is Callen making fun and jokes? Especially when he isn't drunken and on a mission. Had Deeks known that it was Callen way of hiding a bad feeling, he would have been scared.

When they entered the house it was full of smoke and ashes. The smoke settled slowly. A cold shiver went down Deeks back. He had to think about Kensi and her fear. "Why did we have to go inside this house? What are we looking for."

Callen bent down and picked up a large plastic piece with his gloves. "Sometimes homeless people live in such warehouses. Maybe someone is coming back so we can interview him. " Deeks squatted next to Callen. "And what if our witness died in the explosion? Or the culprit is not gone yet?"

Callen turned towards him. "Why are you so negative?" Deeks shrugged. "Don't know. Why are you so positive?" Callen also shrugged and turned to leave. Suddenly turning and looking up deeks looked at the same direction. "What was that? "

Their attention was distracted by Kensi coming toward them. Behind her followed Sam. "Well guys, did you find anything?" Callen held up the plastic part he just found. "Just that. Maybe it's was a jerrycan or something." Sam took a look at it and nodded. "Hm, that could be. I can bring it to the forensics. They are outside. When you two are ready with playing in the dirt they will search for leads."

Kensi nodded. "There must have been a bomb outside the warehouse. It's still under investigation but it was probably the cause of death of the Marine corps we're here for." Deeks shook his head."What would he want here anyway?" Callen pulled out his mobile phone and dialed the number of the wonder twins. Eric was the one to answer first." They Callen, what can we do for you?" Deeks grinned. "Could you please look for the Marine corps on the nearby cameras?" Eric tapped frantically on the keyboard in front of him.

"I have something guys. He came to the warehouse two days ago. But he had something in his hands. It looks like a small safe or something like that." They could hear the keyboard again. Nell spoke up. "Yeah it's a safe but it's special. It is fireproof." Callen nodded. "Thank you both. We are now looking for the safe and then we come back. We can stay in contact via the mobile phones."

Deeks looked around and scratched his head. "Great, and where do we start?" Kensi smiled. "It would be best if we get that to the forensics quickly. Sam, can you let the other cops know what to search for? You both can start here." Sam began to laugh. "It looks like you two got the dirty work." Sam and Kensi quickly ran away from Callen and Deeks before they could catch them.

Slightly at a loss they began to scrap in the dirt for minutes. After 15 minutes they could hear Kensi and Sam coming back to them. Deeks stood up and ran his dirty hands trough his face. Everyone laughed at the look of a dirty Deeks. Callen joined Deeks and signed. "We have nothing. Let the forensics and the clean-up team look for it."

The others nodded in agreement. Callen gave the room one last look around. Suddenly he stopped. A reflection had caught his eyes. Even before anyone could react he reached for his gun and screamed.

"SNIPER! DOWN!"
