Theme: Five stages of grief - bargaining
Rating: PG
A/N: Spoilers for "Twilight".

One night he finds himself on the floor of his basement, his back propped up by the still-unfinished boat, his legs sprawled out in front of him. The empty Scotch bottle lies on the floor next to him. In his hand is a gun, spent casings scattered amongst the sawdust.

Ari's photograph is unrecognizable; even drunk, Gibbs' aim is true.

(Please, he thinks, please bring her back, God.)

He hasn't once said her name since it happened; he still doesn't want to believe it.

His hand tightens on the handle of the gun. An eye for an eye.

(Please, God.)
