Chapter 7

A/N All chapters for this story have now been sent to my wonderful beta. I think I've sent her five chapters in two days lol. I want to thank her for all her hard work. It's very much appreciated.

The elevator opened and there stood Gibbs.

"Tony?"

"I'm going to see Abby."

"Why?"

"This is a file of all my hospital visits as a kid. You can thank Carrie and her colleagues. She thought it might help to keep my father away, permanently hopefully."

"I could give it to her?" Gibbs didn't want to put Tony in a position where she could verbally abuse him again.

"I need to do this; afterwards whatever friendship Abby and I had is over."

Gibbs nodded he hated how things had turned out, but he could understand Tony's point of view and would stand by the younger man.

Abby looked up as Tony and Gibbs walked in. She opened her mouth to speak, but before a word could be uttered a large file was slammed on the table in front of her.

"This is the evidence of my father's abuse over the years. He has and always will be a conman. The friendship we did have is now nothing; you made your choice after believing my father over me. After this we are only work colleagues, you will show me the respect I deserve being Gibbs' Second. Anything remotely inappropriate will be reported immediately." With that he turned and walked away.

"I will support him, after you read that give it to me. If I hear anything from anyone else especially McGee or Ziva and you'll wish you'd never met me."

Abby's mouth fell open as the man she adored more than anything walked away from her. She pulled the file towards her and opened it.

Tony concentrated on the information in front of him. It had been collected by different people police and agents. He no longer believed that Ziva and McGee had his best interests at heart. He was going over everything to make sure the undercover op was ready. Gibbs had headed down to see Ducky and trusted him to look over the case files. He really hoped that they solved these murders afterwards he might take some time off, he really needed it.

Carrie was at her desk, she checked over the information about Tony's mother's death. There were things she needed to look at before she headed towards NCIS.

"Carrie?" Al asked as he walked over.

"I need to make sure he stays away from Tony, I don't think the abuse is going to be enough."

"So what are you planning to do? Something legal, I hope."

"There's something off about her death. I chased up with the lawyers; it seems that she had looked into getting a divorce. The lawyer Mrs DiNozzo had spoken to was a friend of Seniors. He died years ago, all his 'personal' files went back to the firm. It was why no one knew about it, but–"

"Anthony DiNozzo Senior." Al added. "So his friend told him and instead of getting a divorce he became a widower."

"The money was hers. If she left him he would've lost it all." Carrie wanted to find him and beat the truth out of him.

"I think it's something we should look into. What do you need us to do?" He indicated their colleagues who nodded in agreement.

Gibbs sighed as the elevator doors opened and there was Abby with a familiar folder in her hands.

"Gibbs, I...I'm sorry. You have to forgive me. I didn't mean to hurt you." She snivelled and moved back so he could join her.

"Why are you asking for my forgiveness? What have you done to me?" He looked at her with disgust. "What have you become? Did you always act like this, was I blind to it? This spoilt child act stops now. All I want from you is you to do your job in a professional way." With that Gibbs jabbed the button for his floor and never said another word.

Ziva watched Gibbs hold a file tightly. She was sure that this was the same one from Abby's lab. There was only one way to find out. If anything was going on with the team she wanted to know about it, especially if it was about Tony. It amazed her that even though he was a joke there was nothing at NCIS that could be used against him. He always seemed to tell everyone about everything that went on in his life, but when you look back you realise he hasn't actually told you anything specific. It was very frustrating, but this finally could be something.

Abby braced her head on her hands and sulked. How could Gibbs talk to her like that, apart from Ducky she'd known him the longest, as friends anyway.

"Abby, are you alright?" Ziva asked hopefully in a friendly voice.

"Fine." She mumbled as she tried to figure out what to do next and to get things to go back to the way they were.

"What was in the folder Gibbs was carrying?"

"Hmm oh it's just the evidence of Tony's abuse at his father's hands." Abby suddenly blinked and paled. She grabbed Ziva by the shoulders. "You can't say anything, promise me. Gibbs promised to kill me if I said anything to anyone."

"I promise not to say a word." So he had been a victim. It didn't matter if it was true; she needed to get rid of Tony once and for all. This information was something she could use to her advantage.

XXXXX

It had been a long day for Ziva, especially with the glares from Gibbs and Tony just ignored her no matter what she did. He wasn't allowed to do that. When she spoke all of his attention should be on her. Ziva raised her and knocked on the door. A sexy smirk on her face as soon as it opened aimed at the man who had answered.

"Mr DiNozzo, I think there are some things you need to know."

"Come in my dear." Senior smiled at this rate it was going to be easy to get the two women from NCIS in his bed. He stepped back so she could come in. "So, what is it that you need to tell me?"

"There's this file at work. I haven't read it, but I have learned from a reliable source that it's so called evidence of your abuse towards your son. I believe it's all lies as I don't think you would do something like that." Ziva paused. "You really need to talk to Tony." She reached into her pocket and pulled out a piece of paper. "Here's where he'll be tomorrow night. I've written down a 'suggested' time for you to be there by." He hoped that they would cause a scene and the killer would deal with Tony. No one would know she arranged it, no one would believe Senior, he was an abusive father after all.

"Thank you my dear." Senior watched her for a moment longer. "I wonder if I may be so bold and ask for a favour?"

"And that is?"

"Well, this file, all lies of course, could ruin my reputation. It would cause me no end of problems. Is there any way you could get it for me? I would be in your debt."

She weighed her options; Gibbs kept it in the draw that held his weapon. It was only locked when he was there. A favour from him might come in handy one day. "I will try, for you."

"I appreciate that." He held out his hand and waited for her to take it. Senior then pulled her close and softly kissed her lips.

Once he realised her she smiled, turned away and left the room. Tomorrow he and his waste of space excuse for a son would get time alone and he would deal with that troublesome brat.

XXXXX

Ziva snarled and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand. Once her teammate was dealt with she hopefully wouldn't see him every again. If she did and he tried anything, well he wasn't someone anyone would miss.
