Part 2:
Gibbs and his team had just come back from working on their case. They were very tired. Soon they were very scared.
“Why don’t you guys take the rest of the day off. The case isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. I’ll call if something big happens,” said Gibbs.
Tony looked at Ziva David and McGee. They looked as shocked as he felt.
“Uhh....Boss that’s real nice of you. But I think we should stay here. The case could break at anytime,” said Tony.
“Yes Gibbs. There are forms we could fill out,” said Ziva.
McGee just nodded.
Gibbs shrugged. “If that’s what you want to do. I’m going to go see the Director and then Ducky.”
“Boss, maybe you should go see Abby. She’s still worried about you,” said McGee.
“Okay. The Director, Abby, and then Ducky. I’ll see you later.” With that Gibbs left his team in a shocked state.
“I think that Gibbs has a bolt loose,” said Ziva.
“You mean a screw,” Tony replied absentmindedly.
“Yes. Gibbs has a screw loose. Ever since...you know what happened.” Ziva could not finish her sentence. Gibbs’ team was still very insecure about actually losing Gibbs.
“I should call Abby and let her know,” said McGee. He did not move however.
The team watched Gibbs climb the stairs to the Directors office.
************
Gibbs entered Director Jenny Shepard’s office without knocking. Like he always did.
“I see you still don’t know how to knock. Or see my secretary,” said Jenny. She had always been lenient with Gibbs, but after he died she was even more lenient.
Gibbs just looked at her. “What do you want Jen?”
“I think you should take some time off. You died, Jethro. And came back to work the next day,” she said.
“I had a case,” was the reply.
Jenny sighed. “I know that Jethro. However, you were clinically dead. I think you should take off more than half a day.”
Gibbs glared at her. “I’m fine. I can do my job. And I’ll keep doing it until I can’t anymore. Was that all?”
“Yes.”
“Fine.” Gibbs left her office and went to see Abby. At least she wouldn’t bug him.
*********
Music was blaring and pumping through Abby’s lab when Gibbs entered.
“Abby! Turn it down!” yelled Gibbs.
Abby jumped and turned around. “Hey Gibbs! What are you doing down here?” she asked.
“Turn it down please Abs,” said Gibbs.
“Sure.” Abby walked over to her stereo and turned the music down to normal levels. “What are you doing down here?” she asked again.
“Just coming to see you.”
Abby suddenly hit Gibbs on the arm.
“What was that for?”
“ ‘Cause you lied to me. You said you only had a concussion. You died, Gibbs.”
Gibbs gave Abby a hug. “I know. I just didn’t want you to worry and wig out.”
Abby pulled back to look at Gibbs. “I never wig out. I am always calm and cool and collected,” she replied.
Gibbs smiled. “Sure Abby. I’ll remember next time.”
“There better not be a next time mister.”
Gibbs let go of Abby. “There won’t be Abs. I promise. Now, I have to go see Ducky. I’ll talk to you later.”
“Bye Gibbs,” said Abby. As he left, Abby turned the music back up.
************
“Ah, Jethro, you have returned. Now will you please finish what you were telling me?” asked Ducky as soon as Gibbs walked into the morgue.
Gibbs looked around. “Where’s Palmer?”
“I sent Jimmy home. There wasn’t much to do here any ways. Finish, Jethro, or I will tie you down and make you talk.”
Gibbs quirked his eyebrow at that. “Okay Duck. Where did I leave off?”
“Death had just told you ‘No!’”
“Oh yeah....”
*************
Flashback
“Did you just tell me ‘No’?” asked Gibbs.
“Yeah. I tell people ‘no’ all the time. You are no exception. Besides if you think I’m lettin’ you go now, you are nuts,” replied Death.
“What are you talking about?”
“You have been almost dying for a long time now. Each time I think I have then,” Death waves his hands, “*poof*! You’re alive. It’s frustrating.”
“Well sorry. I didn’t mean to mess up your thing.”
“Sarcasm won’t help you out any Gibbs.”
Gibbs glared at Death again. “I need to get back. Only I can catch this guy.”
Death looked at Gibbs. “I need to check something out. Come with me.” He made to grab Gibbs’ arm, but Gibbs pulled away.
“What about that?” asked Gibbs while pointing towards the paramedics and his body.
“Oh. That’s ok. There kind of frozen in time. It’s actually very hard to explain and I don’t have the time. Come on.” This time Death did manage to grab Gibbs’ arm. He pulled Gibbs through a portal.
“Where are we going?”
“To my office. That’s where the thing I need to look up is.” Death stopped walking for a minute. “Maybe I’ll introduce you to my Boss.” Death had an evil grin on his face. “I think you two will get along.”
“What are you talking about?” asked Gibbs.
“Oh you’ll see.” Death laughed. “You’ll see.” With that Death pulled Gibbs through the portal.

“Well Jethro. Don’t stop there,” said Ducky.
“I need to Duck. Nature calls. Plus, I need to eat,” said Gibbs.
“After lunch you better finish your story.”
“Fine Duck,” Gibbs sighed. “It doesn’t last much longer any ways.” Gibbs then left the morgue to use the bathroom and find some food.
“It had better be over soon. I don’t know what I’m going to tell Director Shepard and his team. Or Abigail,” said Ducky.
