Awakenings-Prologue

Disclaimer: I do not own NCIS.

This is short, but I figured it was a prologue so that's OK LOL! I want to see if there is any interest before I continue. Let me know your thoughts!

Tony felt as if his lungs would burst. The pressure in his chest covered the insistent pounding of his heart. He could barely hear anything around him because his ears and eyes had been covered by a blindfold. The fabric was not rough, but soft, familiar even. A whiff of cologne reached his nose as he chocked on the overwhelming scent. He shut his eyes tightly as he suddenly felt them burning and tearing. A realization hit him increasing his anger. Whoever did this used his sling…his own sling to blindfold him. Immediate response in him was to feel his arm throb with distaste. He went to move the rest of his body but found that his hands and feet were also bound although not as gently as his eyes. The ropes were course and tore into his wrists and ankles. He tried his best to move, stretch but the position he had found himself in made it nearly impossible. He could just imagine the dirt covering his Armani suit. He sighed outwardly at his own foolishness, but still…his suit. No matter, suit or no suit, his knife was something he always carried. Rule #9….. Following rules was something he was usually good at. Other rules flowed into his head like Rule #11 Damn it ! Why didn't he just follow rule #11? Maybe things would be different. Hell, he knew things would be different. For one, Ziva would still be here and two if she were, he would never be in this predicament.

The thoughts only seemed to encourage him to attempt to reach the knife in his belt faster although he knew; he knew…it was pointless. The knife was gone. That means they knew about it too. How?

Tony swallowed his throat suddenly dry as he heard the door to his prison open. Tedious footsteps echoed off what Tony figured must be stone walls. A warm hand reached down to his face and tore off the blindfold. Tony blinked rapidly as a single light bulb swung wildly back and forth from the ceiling blinding him from seeing his captor's face.

Once he heard the man before him speak, he prayed to anyone who would listen that Gibbs would find him before it was too late.

"I told you I would show you my interrogation room one day, Agent DiNozzo."

Any thoughts? Review please! I have done ( and still need an epilogue) a story in the Batman Begins universe where Batman was captured and thought maybe we can do that to Tony and see how far he will go…I know I am bit odd! Thanks again for reading!!! If it seems well received I will write more.
