Disclaimer: Ok once again I am writing the same this I do not own NCIS or the characters.

A/N: So this was a really random idea that popped into my head one night while I was trying to sleep. I hope you all like it. This chapter is a little slow because it is explaining the idea.

"DiNozzo, David… Director wants you in his office" Gibbs says walking through the squad room. We jump out of our seats and follow Gibbs up to the director's office. All three of us walk in and Vance is waiting for us.

"Agents DiNozzo and David, I have an undercover assignment for you two to handle" He announces as Gibbs closes the door.

"What is the assignment?" Tony asks after sharing a look with me.

"David, I need to know if you are up for the job. You will be doing things that you may not be comfortable with" Vance asks ignoring Tony's question.

"What is it?" I ask. At the same time, I am agreeing to take the assignment. I am curious now and I want to find out more about our mission.

"We have a serial killer going after married Marines that tell their wives they won't be home for at least a week when really they are home, but staying at a hotel and hanging out at strip clubs all week with their friends. DiNozzo you will pose as one of these marines and David you will be-"

"A stripper" I finish for him. I am not sure what to think. Do I want to dance, strip, and who-knows-what else in front of all those people and my partner?

"David, I need you to go in a few days earlier than DiNozzo. You need to make friends with the girls and people need to know your face. You showing for just a few weeks won't work. DiNozzo you will call Ms. Scuito and tell her you won't be home for a few more weeks and you won't be able to contact her again until you are home. You will be staying at a hotel down the street from the club. Now, DiNozzo, you better keep this professional. Be on your guard at all times. David, I want you to keep a look out while you're doing what you do" Vance tells us.

"Are you both sure you can do this?" Vance asks us one more time.

"Yes" we answer in unison.

"Good… David, I want you to pack your bags and get wired. You leave as soon as you can. We already set up a job spot for you at the club. Your undercover name is Roxie,which is the name you will need to sign into for your spot" Vance demands.

"Yes Sir." I nod my head and listen for Tony's instructions so I know what he is doing.

"As for you DiNozzo, you will be dressed in a military uniform while at this strip club. Your undercover name is Jeremy Tyler. You have been married for 5 years. When you make the call to your wife, you will be standing outside the club. You leave in a few days. So pack your bags as well. Once you get back, help everyone else while Ziva is there until it is your time to leave" Vance tells him.

"On it Sir." Tony takes my arm whilewalking out of the office, leaving only Gibbs and Vance.

"When did this case come about?" Tony asks me, stopping me at the top of the stairs.

"I do not know but we have no choice now. We agreed to do it." I tell him.

"I know we did. I just wish it was different. What does our serial killer look like? Is it a woman or a man? Short or tall? Skinny or fat? Which one is it?" he asks.

"I do not know, Tony. But we have to be on our guards and look out for each other. Most likely our killer is killing both the strippers and the Marine" I tell him.

"Are you going to be comfortable doing that?" he asks, showing all his concern just in the way he is looking at me.

"I do not know. I do not know how I am going to strip and dance for people. It will be very weird… and you not being there for the first few days makes it worse. I mean, I know you will be watching, but that is not the same as you actually being in the room" I tell him.

"Look… if anything happens, I promise I will be there in a heartbeat" he assures me.

"Thank you, Tony. Now I have to go pack. I have a busy day ahead of me" I say, turning away and walking down the stairs. What the heck do I pack for something like this? I have no "stripper" clothes. Do I get things there, or do I have to buy them myself? I guess I will just pack for when I am not working and I am in my hotel. I grab my stuff and walk to the elevator. I reach the parking lot and drive home for the night.

I arrive home and quickly throw a bag together. With pajamas and clothes and my bathroom items. I zip the bag shut and sit on my bed for a little while. How am I going to do this? I mean, if I just had to dance for Tony, I wouldn't have a problem with that. I have a problem with all the other people throwing money at me so I do things for them… so they can touch me.

Just thinking about it disgusts me. I guess this type of assignment comes with the job. I have to protect the Marines. Yes they are being total jerks, but they are still Marines. I stand up from my bed and grab a piece of paper and pen and write a quick note to Tony explaining that he needs to get to the club as fast as he can. I fold the note and stick it in my pocket. I grab my bag and carry it out the door of my apartment. I lock the door on my way out and I make my way back out to my car. I drive back to NCIS headquarters to get my wire and microphone.

When I walk into the squad room, Tony is still at his desk; same for McGee and Gibbs.

"Hey" Tony says, not looking up from his work.

"Vance forgot to tell you that your outfits will be given to you when you arrive at the club" Gibbs informs me. I walk over to Tony and pass the slip of paper onto his desk. I turn back around and walk down to Abby's lab. As the elevator door opens,I can hear the blaring music from her stereo. She turns around to face me as I walk into the lab.

"Ziva!" She runs over and hugs me tightly. I can tell she is worried about the assignment as well.

"You have my stuff ready?" I ask pulling away from her hug.

"Yup it's all here. Here is your ear piece, microphone, and camera" she explains to me while handing me each item.

"Now when you get your outfit, don't forget to place the camera on it" she tells me. I look down into my hand see the ear piece that is fairly small. The microphone is also tiny and then an object that is small and black. It almost looks like a small bug that clings on to a screen or something. Maybe if there is lace on my outfit I could stick it there. It would blend in perfectly.

"Thank you, Abby. I will see you after the assignment" I say hugging her goodbye.

"Don't worry, Ziva. I will be doing what I can so you can come home as soon as possible" she tells me, pulling away.

LATER THAT NIGHT

I arrive at the club. I walk up to a blonde-haired woman named Vicky. She has a giant smile on her face as I approach her.

"You must be Roxie?" she half asks, looking me up and down.

"Yes I am" I answer briefly.

"Ok. Well let me show you around" she says, walking away. I follow her through the club and into a back room.

"This is your outfit rack. You can choose anyone of these" she says while showing me a rack with about 5 outfits on it. I wouldn't even call them outfits though. They are more like just pieces of cloth. I pull one out and look at it. This one isn't so bad I guess. The top is a corset type thing. It opens in the front, but it is closed by a ribbon that makes an X on the front and ties into a bow in the back. The ribbon is red and the corset itself is red, but it is covered in black lace. It also has two thin straps coming off of it. The bottom looks like a skirt. By the way it looks; I say it will only come halfway down my butt. The waist area is solid black, but then it breaks off into little stringy things that are red and then the tips of them are back to black. I can already imagine what Tony's face is going to look like once he sees me in this. Maybe this could be fun. I could tease him all I wanted and not be questioned by Gibbs… oh yes… this will be interesting.

"Roxie, you coming!" I hear Vicky yell. I follow her once again and she leads me over to a curtain.

"This is the stage. And in the far back are the private areas. Now I was told you are up for a lot as long as you are paid well. is thaat true?" she asks.

"Yes" I answer. I do not know what Vance told this woman, but whatever she says I will listen to. I hope I do not have to do anything too drastic.

"Good. Now go get dressed. You start in an hour" she tells me, pushing me back towards the clothing rack she showed me earlier.

"I can't wait to watch you dance in that outfit, Ziva." I hear Tony's voice say in my ear. I am beginning to wonder why I have to wear an earpiece for this assignment?

"Shut your trap, DiNozzo" I tell him.

"Besides… you will not be able to see me just yet" I explain.

"We have cameras inside the place, Ziva. We have to watch everyone's movements" he says. He begins to laugh and I know tonight is going to be a long night if I do not find a way to shut him up.

A/N: ok so this was just a random idea that I had. If you want more then I suggest you review… please.
