"8 years, she's 8" Lisa rolled her eyes as though it was obvious

Gibbs laid out the three photos from above in front of her "Who are these two children" he asked her

"That's Ava" she said "I don't know her" she pointed to the other girl, Tali

"This is Talia and this is Kaida" Gibbs stated "Neither of them are Ava"

"Yes that is my daughter Ava" "I've never heard of those other girls" she sighed


"Gibbs" McGee interrupted "I have something you're going to want to know"

"It better be important" Gibbs sighed closing the door behind him

"Lisa Sawyers had a daughter named Ava Leanne Sawyers who died nearly 4 years ago, she was 4"

"So 'Ava' exists" Gibbs asked

"That's what I'm saying" McGee nodded "only she doesn't exist anymore"


Gibbs went back into the room

"What were you doing in the weeks running up till Christmas"

"I was at home with Ava"

"Did you ever leave and go to Washington DC"

"no"

"Lisa you know that Ava is dead" he asked

"You told me that she was safe" Lisa yelled

"I told you that Kaida was safe, you took Kaida as your daughter"

"Where is Ava" she yelled

"You know your daughter died when she was four" Gibbs said

"My daughter is not dead" she yelled

"I'm done here" Gibbs sighed leaving

He slammed the door on the way out.


While Kai was resting on the couch in the staff room Gibbs called a meeting with, Tony, Ziva and McGee. They discussed the case and Lisa, it seemed genuine she honestly didn't know what happened to her daughter now they needed to work out what to do. "We should head back to Washington" Tony sighed "We're leaving in an hour" Gibbs decided leaving to book the flights and arrange transfer for Lisa.


"Kai" Ziva smiled, the small girl was sitting on the couch staring into space

"Ima" Kai said looking back at Ziva

"We're going to go back to Washington soon" Ziva smiled

"okay"

"A few things have changed tateleh" Ziva smiled looking at Kai "Abba has gone to get the things we brought with us do you want to get anything from your house" Ziva asked

"It's not my house" Kai stated "and I don't want anything from there"

"There's absolutely nothing" Ziva asked

"nothing" Kai said

"We have to go there anyway" Ziva said

"I don't want to" Kai said crossing her arms and glaring at Ziva

"Why not" Ziva asked

"I'm not Ava" she said "Everything there is Ava's not mine"

"We have to go get uhh" "Lisa or Mom" Ziva asked

"Lisa" Kai stuttered

"Okay Lisa needs some clothes" Ziva said taking Kai's hand and grabbing a couple cookies off the table

"Fine" Kai sighed getting up

"Thank you" Ziva said leading her out to the car.
