The plane ride was long and tiring for Alex. It had been 12:30 when he left London. Since the eastern part of the United States was 4 hours behind, it was much earlier. The plane ride had also taken about 4 hours. And Alex was getting really tired.

About a half an hour later, Alex landed in Washington D.C. He got passed passport control, and got his luggage, so now he was supposed to look for this Special Agent Gibbs. He had no idea what this man looked like. He felt a hand touch his shoulder. "Huh-?" Alex turned around.

"Are you Alex Rider?" A tall man with silver hair and a marine-style haircut asked.

"Uh- yes sir. Are you Special Agent Gibbs?" Alex asked.

"Uh huh. Let's go, Alex." Gibbs beckoned him to come with him.

**

Gibbs' car was very nice and comfortable. It made Alex even sleepier than he wanted to be. But soon enough, Alex and Gibbs had made it to the NCIS building. Pretty normal looking building. Alex thought.

Gibbs led Alex to an elevator where they went up 3 floors. The elevator opened, and the floor looked pretty normal too. Just offices. Nothing else. "Uh…Agent Gibbs?" Alex asked.

"McGee's desk is by that television over there. Go sit down and sleep." Gibbs said as he walked away.

"How-oh never mind." Alex said.

**

"McGee, you still tire?" Ziva asked.

"Ziva…It's tired." McGee said.

"That's what I said."

"Yeah…Yeah I am."

"Alright, McGee."

The elevator opened up. "Hey, Gibbs is here early…actually at his desk too." McGee said.

"That's odd." Ziva said.

"Uh…Gibbs…? Who's the kid at my desk…who's knocked out?" McGee asked.

"He's my son." Gibbs said matter-of-factly.

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?" Ziva and McGee said at the same time.

"I was just kidding. Where's DiNozzo?" Gibbs asked.

"Oh…good. I don't know where Tony is actually." McGee said.

"Quit looking. I found him." Ziva said.

"Hello everyone! Both probies and boss." Tony said as he walked to the desks. "And the kid who's knocked out at McGee's desk."

"Boss…who is he?" McGee asked.

"He will be working with us for a while. Nothing more. Now, let's go. Ducky wants to see us." Gibbs said as he walked out of the area and into the elevators.

"But…what about the kid?" Tony asked.

**

"Ah, Jethro, Ziva, McGee, and Tony! I never expected all of you to come down." Ducky exclaimed.

"What's up Ducky?" Gibbs asked.

"Well, we have a guest…a petty officer."

"We get lots of petty officers here, ducky."

"This one has an odd case."

"How so?"

"This petty officer…was shot down in Britain." Ducky said.

"And petty officers aren't supposed to be in Britain?" Ziva asked.

"Yes, Ziva. Especially when this particular one was supposed to be in Afghanistan." Ducky said.

"Oh I see." Ziva said.

"The poor man was shot, and the shooter was actually found out cold himself." Ducky explained.

"That's weird…hey this reminds me of a movie…" Tony started.

"We don't need to hear any movie scenarios right now, Tony." Ziva said.

"So, you have an identity then, Ducky?" Gibbs asked.

"No…but Abby might. I sent her up some samples." Ducky said.

"Good enough. We can put his face in face reconization." Gibbs said, and left autopsy.

"What's wrong with him? Do any of you know?" Ducky asked.

"Well…I don't know, all I know is that there's a blond-haired kid sleeping on my desk." McGee said.

"A blond haired kid?" Ducky asked, "Why in the world is there a child sleeping at your desk?"

"No idea. Gibbs won't tell any of us." McGee sighed.

Alex had a wonderful nap. When he awoke, he actually felt refreshed, even though he was sleeping at someone's desk, but the seat was absolutely wonderful. I would like this chair now… Alex sighed.

"Hey! Guys!!! Come back!!! Mystery kid's up!!!" Tony exclaimed.

McGee and Ziva rushed back over to the offices where they were stationed.

"Hey!! Why are you in my seat?" McGee exclaimed.

"Um…well…Mr. Gibbs told me to sleep here…" Alex said very smoothly in an English accent.

"He's English." Ziva said.

"Yeah…What's an English kid doing at my desk?" McGee asked again.

"I don't know Probie…didn't you here that 'Mr. Gibbs' told him to sleep there?" Tony sneered.

"Mr. DiNozzo, would you like to tell us your joke?" Gibbs walked in.

"Uh…no Boss. We all just want to know who he is…that's all." Tony said.

"His name is Alex. He will be working with you for a while, on an undercover assignment. To be more correct, you and Ziva will become his parents for the time being." Gibbs said.

"You've got be kidding. Me and Ziva? Come on Gibbs! We've done this before, you know." Tony complained.

"You have to, DiNozzo." Gibbs said.

"Come on, boss! I look nothing like Alan…" Tony said.

"Um…sir, my name's Alex." Alex said.

"Whatever. I don't think I can do this…that's all." Tony said.

"Sure you can." Gibbs said.

"Alex, why don't you go down to Abby's lab…and see if she has anything for me." Gibbs said.

"Sure…wait, before I go, where's Abby's lab?" Alex said.

"Basement. She'll have music on, if that helps." Gibbs said.

"Yes, I believe it does…" Alex left the room.

**

*insert one of Abby's awesome tunes here*

"Um…hello, are you Abby?" Alex asked reluctantly.

"Yeah! Who are you? A British teenager?" Abby said.

"Well…yes."

"Who sent you down here?"

"Agent Gibbs. He wanted to know if you had anything for him."

"Oooh!! Yes!!! Wow…Gibbs really knows when I have something." Abby exclaimed, "You don't have caf-pow, do you?"

"No…but he said check your freezer…or something like that." Alex said, "He said there was two of something in there, and one was for me."

"Really…but I never saw him come in…" she said. "Oh! There's two Caf-Pow's here! One has a note…"

Be nice to Alex and give this to him. He needs caffeine from the long plane ride from Britain.-Gibbs.

"One is for you…" Abby said.

"What is it?" Alex asked.

"Caf-Pow…you know, it's a high-caffeine drink." Abby said, "Here."

"WHOA. That's huge." Alex said, "That's amazing!"

"Yeah…I suppose so…" Abby said, "Oh! Take this up to Gibbs also while you're at it."

"Okay then. Thanks for the drink Abby." Alex said as he left Abby's forensic lab.

Okay, not the best chapter in the whole wide world…mkay?

But I had recently got a review about something that I'm going to put into my Fanfic…I actually already did…I'm sorry I can't remember your name…^^;
