Summary: "You ever notice that it's always the quiet unassuming ones?" Morgan asks.

A/N: Guys, I cannot Angst today for the life of me.



"You ever notice that it's always the quiet unassuming ones?" Morgan asks. Tony DiNozzo, Italian decent, dark good looks, a player, but not a hook-up looks over his shoulder.

"I don't know about you, but I don't think anyone could ever call Abby quiet and unassuming," he says. When he smiles it's with all of his white, shiny, teeth and it looks friendly but Morgan can see it for what it is, a warning to stay the hell away.

The BAU team has been overly lucky in finding the NCIS headquarters and making it in before final quarantine procedures had locked the building down. While Morgan's not sure how to take this team of agents, they are at the very least competent and caring and willing to take a chance to save people. Morgan smiles and shakes his head.

"You're right, I don't think those qualities really fit Garcia either," he admits. "But I will say I never really expected our hacker girl to be able to kill the un-dead with such..." he trails off because he's not sure what exactly it is he's trying to say. Luckily he has Reid for that.

"Gleeful abandon?" Reid offers. Morgan chuckles.

"Yeah, Kid, that's exactly what it is." He's taken to calling Reid 'Kid' again, and Reid hasn't objected yet. Morgan figures their resident genius is stressed enough, being that they couldn't find Hotch or Rossi before the lock down, that the familiar is helping him cope. You do what you have to.

"Do you think we should go and drag them back in?" Tony asks. The number of Zombies that were in the parking garage weren't anything to really worry about with their slow and cumbersome shuffling, but the girls had been in there for twenty minutes now. Tony doesn't wait for an answer, or opinion, he steps up and calls out to the girls "You know what, I think it's time to call it a day!"

Abby, in her bloodied white lab coat, pigtails and tattoos spins around with a happy squeal. "Zombies, Tony!" she shouts. "Zombies!"

"I know, Abs, but it's time to get your butts back in here before the bossman has my..." he stops and looks over his shoulder with a different grin, this one Morgan would categorize as amused, but not apologetic. "Hey Boss," he says.

"Abby, get in here," Abby whirls around and bashes one last Zombie on the head with a baseball bat she had pulled out of a drawer in her lab.

"Come on, Penny," she says and pulls Garcia along with her.

"Aww, but it's fun," Garcia says. Reid looks over Garcia's head at Morgan and mouths 'penny' with a bemused expression. Morgan grins and tilts his head at the elevator. He sees the worried look Reid casts at the doors and claps a hand on the younger man's shoulder.

"Don't worry, Kid," he says with more conviction than he feels. "They're fine. You don't think a little thing like a Zombie uprising can stop Hotch do you? Now let’s get back up there before that Mossad agent teaches Prentiss how to kill us with her little toe."

"You don't think she can do that, do you?" Reid asks.

"Yeah," Gibbs says as the elevator closes. "She can do that." Morgan grins because the joke, and the twinkly in Gibbs' eye go completely over Reid's head.
