Part 7:
Flashback
Gibbs and Death had been at all the filing cabinets in Death’s office.
“I don’t think that you have the file,” said Gibbs.
Death was munching on his turkey sandwich. “Yeah. I don’t know where it could be.” Death thought for a minute. “Maybe Zofi would know.”
“Whose Zofi?”
“My secretary person. She might know where the file is. ZOFI!”
Suddenly a young girl appeared. She snapped her gum and said, “What Chief?”
“Where is the file on Leroy Jethro Gibbs?” Death asked.
Gibbs turned to glare at Death. “We were looking for my file?” he asked.
“Yes. The file Zofi.”
“Sure Chief. It was on my desk ‘cause he was going to be a new customer.”
Death sighed. “I should have know. Joe probably put it there. That jerk. Can I have it Zofi?”
“Sure. Here.” Zofi handed Death Gibbs’ file. “Later Chief.”
“Bye.” Zofi left still snapping her gum.
“She reminds me of Abby somehow,” said Gibbs.
“Who’s Abby?”
Gibbs then explained who Abby and the rest of his team was. “I consider Abby, Ducky, and Palmer part of my team.”
“I heard of Tony before. The whole plague thing was a shock. No one had died because of that in a really long time. I don’t know if I almost had the rest or not. But whatever. I have to read your file now. Be quiet.” Death began to read Gibbs’ file, while Gibbs wandered around the office. He did not to well with sitting still.
Death read for what felt like hours to Gibbs. Death’s brothers; Pestilence, War, and Famine, had come in and talked with Gibbs. War was particularly pleased with Gibbs. War said Gibbs had served him well and still was. They left as soon as Death finished reading the file.
“I hope my bros didn’t bug you too much,” said Death.
“No they were fine.”
“Good. Let’s go.”
“Where?”
“I have to take you back. You said that only you could catch the bad guy. And you were right. It’s still not your time, damnit!”
Gibbs looked at Death. “I’m sure there will be other times.”
Death pouted. “Don’t try to placate me. I’ll be watching you Gibbs.”
Gibbs and Death got to a portal. Through it they could see the paramedics still working on Gibbs.
“It’s only been a few seconds, maybe a minute. I’m going to send you back. Don’t fuck up your life anymore Jethro. There are people out there who care about you. And it’s not just Director Shepard. Oh, stay away from her. I give her two more years at least.” With that, Death pushed Gibbs through the portal.
A few seconds later, Gibbs woke up and remembered everything. He made the decision to be a little nicer to his team. And his friends.
They would be so freaked out, he thought with a smile.

“That’s what happened.”
“Jethro. That was very....interesting,” said Ducky.
“I know. Do you want to have dinner later Duck?” asked Gibbs.
Ducky beamed. “Of course Jethro. Now why don’t you go save Anthony from Death. And I will see you later.”
Jethro gave Ducky a small smile and left the morgue.
Ducky sighed. His day kept getting better.
