Very interesting
Josy

A/N: For all of you who do not know about Gibbs and his head slaps, I'll give you a clue; Tony says something sarcastic or leaves something out or being down right rude to other people and above all being left out of the loop.

It is now the end of spring and I will be brief with summer in the next chapter, then my favoirte time of year. The FALL!

Anyway, I hope you have enjoyed my story! I also wanted to clarify something this chapter has Abby (NCIS) and Abs (STFBE) hope that clears that up.
(this isn't the end....yet)

------------------------------------

Chapter Nine

Tony took the phone, dialed Gibbs office inside NCIS headquarters, and waited for him to answer, ..“Boss the investigation is over, paper work will be handled by the Air Force and the FBI…Let Abby know that she will receive her CafPow free from me the next time I see her…” looking at Sue, “yes she did… I know boss…Thanks Boss…” Then he hung up the blackberry and handed it back to Sue

Sue arched her eyebrow at Tony as if to say, ‘What was that about?’ As Tony was handing back her phone.

“I told Abby if Sam and I became parents that I would get her CafPows for a week. That is what was going on and if I am lucky Gibbs won‘t head slap me for not telling him face to face.”

Sue chuckled and shook her head; she just hoped that Jenny could get him calmed down so that wouldn’t happen. Sue’s arm is softly touched by Sam,” We are not the only ones,” Sam pointed her head slightly to Jackson and Abigail.”

Sue looked at Sam, “How do you know?”

“That is the same look I had when I found out that I was pregnant and was scared to tell Tony.”

Sue sighed, “Lucy is going to flip, that she missed this.” Lucy was still in Colorado with Teal’c, apparently she had become rather proficient in her hand-to-hand combat that she joined a special ops team, on top of that she was the mother of four kids. Sue just shook her head and walked over to her daughter and son-in-law.

“Sam tells me you have something to tell your father and I?”

Abigail turned beat read while in Jackson’s arms, who had bent down to see her face. “Yes, I do.”

Concern was etched in Jackson’s face, “Something wrong, Abs?”

“Nothing is wrong, we are going to be parents sometime when there is red leaves on the trees, with brown and yellow leaves on the grass.”

Jackson face went from concern, to curious, to out and out joy. He beamed with pride, “You mean it.”

“Yup,” Abigail said with a beaming smile, so like her daddy’s.

Jackson picked her up, then spun her around and did his daddy proud by exclaiming, “WooHoo.”

Bobby and Tara turned to see their son picking up their shared daughter with Jack and Sue. Tara immediately figured it out. She had that same look on her face when she announced she was pregnant with both kids.

Tara nudged her husband in the ribs, “Koala Boy, you still here. We are going to grandparents.” Then glancing around the room, she noticed that Tony was resting his hand on Sam’s stomach with her back toward him.

Tara knew that Lucy was missing this, she looked at General O’Neill who was conversing on a telephone. ‘I wonder what he is up to’ she thought. Then she directed her gaze to the two PFC’s. Jon and Daniel were looking smug. ‘Hmmm, I wonder what is up.’” Then all of a sudden there was a bright light and there stood Lucy in BDU’s with her arms around Teal’c.

Lucy looked around the room, “Alright, who is going to tell me what is going on?”

Myles took the opportunity to enlighten Lucy, “Sam and Abigail are expecting.” Then stepped back so he would not be in the line of fire of her squeal. Myles felt sorry for Teal’c who had to endure the squealing from so close a range. He glanced over at the military officers and did a mini salute to them for pulling the before entrance off. Myles looked at his wife, who was coming toward him rubbing her ears, he let out a chuckle.

Ziva saw his chuckle, “Myles, you could have warned me, yes?”

Myles answered with a smile on his face, “Now what would be the fun in that.”

Ziva just rolled her eyes. The last few days had been nothing short of nerve wracking but now with the suspects literally ‘hogtied’ to their chairs and going to prison for a long time for their involvement of her ‘niece’ being kidnapped. Jack, Bobby, Sue, and Tara had their children back, and now with the impending births of two children, who would be born in the fall, life couldn’t get any better than this.

Yay! Babies!!!

Grandpa Jack and Grandpa Bobby. Now, there's something that's hard to imagine.

fantastic just cant believe Jack and Sue along with Bobby and tara as grandparents can just think of them as parents to more little ones cant wait for more
Lin

Well, I speak of experience -- the autumn is the perfect time of year to be born. I'm glad there's happy news after the angst.

kav

Yay...babies at fall...


That line made me laugh
Josy

Babies in the fall - perfect!!!

Joy

Woohoo, baby time in the fall! This is great!

Sorry I got behind Scottiedog. But, I'm here and itching to catch up now. Some observations: P1-Ch 2-10 - If Bobby is the AD, what is Jack? Director? How did O'Neill know Abigal was Jack's daughter?
P2-Ch 3-17 - Ohhhhh! I guessed right, Jack is director!
Now, I had to stop here and make a list of all the characters so I can keep them straight. Otherwise, I would go bonkers trying to remember who is who and what show they came from.

P2-Ch 4-26 - Does Abigal work for Gibbs at NCIS?

P2-Ch 5-26 - Okay, Gibbs is now NCIS Director, right? Who is Sam, besides Tony's wife? Also, I wasn't sure what Semper Fi was, so I googled it..."always faithful". I love it when I learn something new out here! Thanks, Scottiedog!
Yes, Gibbs is the director! Now, assuming Abigal is an NCIS agent, or consultant, her kidnapping must have something to do with a case they are working on? This is a wonderful, fast moving story and I love it! Be back in awhile with the rest!

Lynn

P3-Ch 6-33 - Oh, my head is spinning with all these characters. Is Teal'c from SG1? And Agent Lee...NCIS? And is SG1 based at Quantico? P3-Ch 7-41 - What? Is the lackey talking about the Senator wanting Abby as his wife? That's sick! Now, who is this character? And I'm assuming the "old man" is General O'Neill? Gee, Debbie, you really know how to keep me hopping! I love it!

P4-Ch 8-47 - What is a Zat gun? Glad they were able to pin this on the Senator. What made them put the Senator under surveillance in the first place? Now, what is this announcement that Tony/Sam and Abigal have to make? I hope it is what I think it is!

P4-Ch 9-52 - I knew it! Both Tony/Sam and Abigal/Jackson are expecting! Woo-Hoo!!!!!! And Lucy made it back in time to rejoice with them! And Myles and Ziva are married? I suspected they might have a thing going, but didn't think marriage.

What a nice little case, all tied up in a neat package and now they can all get on with their lives. I can't wait to see what summer brings and then the birth of the babies in the fall! Great story, Debbie, and I'm so glad I got caught up!

Lynn

A/N: Clarification for those of you who don't watch Stargate SG1 or Atalantis. A zat gun is more like a stun gun but more technical.

When I say Abs in this story it means Abigial Hudson Manning, if I say Abby, I am referring to Abby Scioto from NCIS.

I wanted to say thank you for the reviews!

Here ya go, enjoy!

Sorry it is short!

Chapter Ten part a

Within three months time the trial of Gomez and Murch went without a hitch. They were both found guilty of conspirators to kidnapping the FBI directors daughter. Kinsey was charged with orchestrating the whole thing. With eyewitness testimony, all three got life sentences with out the possibility of parole.

Sam and Abigail were both around 6 months along, with June and July being the hottest months on record. The humidity in Colorado was a sweltering 40% but DC was worse at 70%, with temperatures up at 85 a piece.

Sam and Abigail emailed each other daily with their own progress reports. Sam told Abigail about Tony trying to fix the baby’s room an orange color, which Sam immediately vetoed. Abigail had a good laugh about that. Abigail told Sam about Jackson trying to put the crib together, he had to enlist his sisters help, which they both, Abigail and Elizabeth, just shook their heads over. Sam laughed over that one.

By August both women were counting down the days. Sam found out she was having a boy, which she told Abigail that Tony was on cloud nine. Abigail told Sam that they were having a girl, and that Jackson was also on cloud nine.

Finally, September rolled around, the leaves began to change from green to red, then to yellow and brown. By the end of the month both women were about to bite someone’s head off if the baby’s didn’t come soon.

For Sam her contractions came right in the middle of her doing experiment that for SG3.

“Doggone it!” Sam screamed at the time of her lungs. To Sam’s utter embarrassment General O’Neill just happened to by passing by Sam’s lab when she let loose.

General O’Neill walked in to see Sam clutching the lab table with her everything that she had. He immediately turned to the SF in the corridor, “Call Dr. Lam, tell her we are our way,” then he turned back to Sam, “Carter, I am taking you to Dr. Lam.” Jack noticed that Sam didn't protest and just nodded. He picked her up and carried her to the infirmary. When both Sam and Jack to the infirmary they encountered an orderly in the infirmary who General O'Neill told to call her husband Tony DiNozzo.....

oh boy at least ones in labour just hope daddys not around when his baby girl goes into labour as we know what jacks like with his daughter but cant wait to find out
Lin

A/N: Lindylou, here you go.... Thank you for the reviews everyone.

This is part b, still short in there we are getting to the (s)
Again, please see part a for clarificaiton of both Abigail's

--------------------
Chapter Ten part b

In DC, Abigail was watching tapes that her and her mother had from the team. She started to get up from her sitting position and let out a yell that both Jackson and Bobby heard as they walked into the door. Both of them drew their guns and made it to the bedroom. Upon entering they noticed Abigail clutching the bedspread, they put the safeties back on and hurried to Abigail’s side.

“When did the pains starts Abs?” Bobby asked in a hushed tone while looking at her.

“This morning,” Abigail said with tearful eyes as another contraction seized her side.

Jackson gasped, “Abs why didn’t you tell me?”

Abigail put up her finger for him to wait for the answer, after the contraction was over with she said, “I didn’t want to worry you.”

Jackson was touched but he was also worried, “Honey, let me worry okay, if anything happened to you, I would go nuts.”

Abigail gave him a small smile and then looked over at Bobby, “Call my dad.” as another contraction took hold.

Bobby noticing that the contractions were coming awful close together asked, “How far apart are they?”

“They were every 5 minutes, now they are down to every 90 seconds.”

Bobby and Jackson looked worried, they had never delivered a baby before, “I’ll call Sparky, move this stuff so we have someplace to work.”

Jackson nodded and got to work while his dad went into the other room.

-----
Bobby had his ear to the phone and after a couple of rings his best friend answered, “Sparky, you need to get over to Abigail’s.”

“What’s wrong Crash?”

“Abigail has gone into labor, her contractions are 90 seconds apart.”

“We are on our way Crash.”

"Good, see you in a few.” Bobby said with some trembling in his voice. Then hung up the phone and then dialed 911, told them of the emergency and stayed on the phone with them until help arrived.

Yippee! Both Sam and Abigail have gone into labor. But I have another question. Is Sam in Colorado?

Lynn

90 seconds apart!!! Baby will arrive VERY soon!!
Josy

Abigail, so like her mother!! Didn't want to worry her husband!! It's a good thing both Jackson and Bobby were there!!!

Sam was also lucky that General O'Neill was passing her office!!!

Now, here we go - we're going to have babies soon!!!

Joy

Babies, woohoo! Where is Sue? And Tara? Are Jack and Bobby and Jackson going to deliver this baby? I have mixed emotions. But that's ok, as long as their baby girl arrives safely.

I'm guessing Sam already had her baby boy before Abigail. Can't wait to hear more details.

Can you tell I love babies, I had 6 in 6 years.

A/N: I know that this is short, very short, but I wanted to be able to get this out for y'all before my mind went in overdrive for Tony and Sam.

I am sometimes not good at a paragraphs with details so I hope this makes sense.

Thank you for all the reviews!

Chapter Eleven part a

Jackson was exhausted, happy, and worried all at once. He was happy that his daughter Jacqueline Susannah Manning was happy and healthy at 7 pounds and 1-¼ ounces and 19-1/2 inches long; exhaustion from watching his wife go through to have their baby girl; worry because she was still out of it from having a Cesarean section. The paramedics had to rush her to Walter Reed and then she was whisked into surgery after his father and father-in-law had to use their credentials to get Abigail to the hospital on time. They were all glad that they didn’t have to deliver her at home.

Jackson felt a hand on his shoulder, glanced over his shoulder and saw his father give him a small smile of support. They both stayed in the hospital room until Abigail woke up to see their beautiful baby daughter.

thank you thank you for 2 wonderful yet I think abi is so much like her mum where there men are concerned pleased jack wasnt there to see his baby girl in pain but so pleased she and the baby are alright cant wait for the next chapter
Lin

Oh dear...a c-section. Ouch, that's no fun! But glad that mother and daughter are doing fine. Abigail will be fine, once the anesthetic wears off, won't she Debbie? I know I was!

A perfect little girl, for a perfect couple! I'm so happy for Jack and Sue and Bobby and Tara, not to mention, of course, Abigail, Jackson and little Jacqueline Susannah!

It's celebration time!

Lynn

A/N: With hubby home to take up some of the slack, I have written all of it except the epilogue. I from the bottom of my heart for all your reviews it has made me work that much harder to get this done.

I will be working on the seqeul to 'Teaming Together' after this finished, so bear with me, I will get there.

So here is the rest of it except the last chapter.....

Thanks again!

Chapter Eleven part b

Tara went to directly to Jack and Sue who were waiting for news of their daughter. She knew that if the situation was reversed she would be doing the same thing that they were: praying.

As Tara approached, she noticed Jack’s head come up and looked at her with a hopeful expression. Tara smiled and nodded herhead. She saw the relief in Jack’s face and eyes as he turned to nudge Sue, who turned to look at him and then glanced up at Tara with a genuine smile of gratitude.

Tara squatted down at Jack and Sue’s level who were currently sitting on the hard chairs from the waiting room, “Abigail is fine. The doctors and nurses wheeled her into a room,” her voice wavering, “they had to do Cesarean section because she was coming to fast and our granddaughter was breech.”

Sue gasped, “Is she going to be okay?”

Tara smiled, “Yes, she is going to be okay. She is a thriving 7 pound baby girl,” and then giggled, “from every indication she is going to be tall like her grandfathers."

Tara saw that both Jack and Sue let out a breath, that she knew that they were holding. “Would you two like to see our granddaughter?”

Jack and Sue both nodded and followed Tara to the nursery, where they found the nurses checking to make each baby was warm and snuggled in their beds. Tara pointed to the Manning baby to the nurse who brought her to the window.

“She’s gorgeous,” Sue said, with awe.

“Yeah she is, and she looks a lot like her mother and a lot like Jackson. What is her name?” Jack asked, as he gazed at his new granddaughter.

Tara nodded. She could see that as well, “She is named after her daddy and grandfather as well as her grandmothers. One of my middle names is Susannah.” Tara could feel Jack and Sue looking at her. “ Her full name is Jacqueline Susannah Manning.”

Jack had tears in his eyes as Tara was telling him and Sue his granddaughters name, he couldn’t get a sound out because of the lump in his throat. He turned to Sue and Tara and signed, “Jacqueline is very beautiful. Her hair looks like she could have dark brown hair and possibly have brown or green eyes.”

Tara nodded and then felt warm hands on her waist and she didn’t even need to turn around, with the sound of his voice filling in her heart and soul, “We raised excellent kids, don’t you think,“ Bobby said with a smirk on his face, Tara didn’t even need to look, she knew that his dimples were in full swing with the smirk. Bobby continued after a brief pause, “Abigail woke up, Jackson will be down here to fetch our granddaughter for her to see.”

Everyone nodded, to let Bobby know that they heard and saw him.

“Yeah Bobby we did,” Tara said as she patted his hand that was on his waist as they watched Jack and Sue gaze at their granddaughter.

Chapter Twelve

Back in Colorado, Sam was resting after giving birth to a healthy 7 pound 10 ounce baby boy, who by every indication would be as tall as his dad, considering that his length was 21 inches. She gazed at Tony who was sitting next to the bed with a huge smile on his face and who made just in the nick of time. Sam is proud of her husband who is currently at the Air Force Academy teaching the cadets about crime scenes and how not to contaminate them.

Sam was proud of him, even with the move, he found an outlet that he enjoyed. She was also glad that, he would push when necessary but would also back off when she needed the space or be there when she needed a hand that was comforting but not overbearing. At this moment, she fell head over heels in love her husband all over again. Sam could barely heard Daniel’s question.

“Have you named him?” Daniel glanced from Tony to Sam, who nodded to her husband.

“Yes, we have but we want General O’Neill in here before we do. He has gone to get my former boss from DC.” Tony said still gazing down at his son, whose hand was around Daniel’s finger.

“No need to wait any longer DiNozzo,” said a gruff voice from the doorway.

Tony glanced up at Sam who was beaming at him, “We have named him after two important people in our lives and that have meant to world to us.”

'Some things never change' Gibbs thought, “DiNozzo.”

“His name is Jonathon Jethro DiNozzo”

Daniel heard the small intake of breath behind him. He turned his body and looked right at Jack, whose face was soft, and tears in his eyes. Being his best friend he knew what that would mean to him. Then Daniel saw Sarah wrap her hand around Jack’s waist and put her head on his back, “I don’t think Charlie would mind.” he heard her murmur in Jack’s back. Then Daniel saw Jack pat Sarah’s hand and nodded.

Butterfly was standing next to Sarah and watched her husband with the child and then Jack and Sarah and knew that a healing had taken place with Jack as he accepted and acknowledged the baby’s name. She also watched Gibbs as he walked over to give Sam a hug and then looked at Tony and said with voice full of emotion, “Good Job DiNozzo.”

“We want you and Jack to be ‘honorary’ grandfathers to him,” Tony said as he looked to Gibbs and then Jack.

Jack and Jethro looked at each other, and Jack said with deep emotion, “We will be honored to be his grandfathers.”

Tony nodded. It was good to have a happy ending to the last few months. He handed the baby to Daniel who was closest to him and then went to Sam and gave her a kiss on the forehead, “Thank you for our son, and for being the beautiful woman that you are. I love you.”

“I love you too, Tony.” Then proceeded to give him a kiss that said exactly how she felt.

Very lovely... and I am so glad both babies are fine and mothers too
Josy

I love the name Jacqueline Susannah -- and the history that goes behind it.

kav

What a beautiIful addition to the Hudson/Manning families!

I wondered about the CO connection. I have a feeling both these little tykes are going to be spoiled rotten by the grandfathers, both real and honorary! That's what we grandparents like to do!

Lynn

A/N: Here is the epilogue. I really enjoyed writing this, this was fun.

I hope you all can see what I have written, I am not that great with word pictures like alot of you, but with the LORD's help I hope it has come out the way it is suppose to.

Unitl another Challenge comes along, I'll say bye for now as I go to finish my other story.

Take Care and God Bless,

Epilogue

Two months later in Colorado Springs, CO, right around Thanksgiving, there were two sets of families around a big oak coffee table. One set lived in DC where there was snow on the ground, the second set lived in Colorado Springs where the leaves were brown, red and yellow.

During this time, the women in the group were enjoying the time together while the guys took the little bundles of joy to the window to enjoy the nice colors and tell them about life.

“It was nice for you guys to join us for Thanksgiving,” Sam said with a soft happy smile.

Abigail smiled as she read what Sam said and then answered with a sparkling grin, “We were glad to get out of DC. I like snow, but not that much,” then she changed the subject, “where is Mr. O’Neill, I thought he was going to join us?”

Sam looked at Tony after Abigail asked her question with a smile on her face, “He is on his honeymoon with his wife Sarah.”

Sue read what she said and immediately got a happy grin on her face, “I am glad that they worked out their hurts and were able to get back together.”
Butterfly reached over and touched Sue’s arm, with a smile on her ebony face, “Daniel was very happy to be his best man, he had asked Tony but he politely turned him down knowing that Daniel was there first, and Daniel was the perfect person for it.”

Every woman in the room nodded with understanding and love for this archaeologist who would stand by you through thick and thin like a brother should.

“I think it is time to take a brisk walk with the kids. We have been bundling up Jackie for our walks so that we could take Lee for his walks,” Abigail said with a happy but sad smile because Lee was the son of Levi her mother’s dog who died in the line of duty just shy of Abigail giving birth to Jackie.

“Abs he would’ve been proud grandpa just like your father is right at this moment,” Sue said with a smile of reassurance.

“Someone say grandpa,” said a voice that had turned up unexpectedly at the door way to the living room.

“Jack, Sarah when did you get in?” Daniel asked with a smile on his face after turning around hearing his best friends voice..

Jack rolled his eyes as Sarah gave him a ‘behave’ look before answering his best friend, “We just Danny boy,” looking at the ladies, “now who said grandpa.”

“I did Jack,” said Sue from her spot in the living room, then she felt a hand on her shoulder and knew by the cologne that it was her Jack that walked up to her.

Jack O’Neill clapped his hands, “Well, why don’t we take the kids out for a walk so that the new mothers can get some rest,” then looking at Sarah with a mischief smile on his face, “and the rest of the ladies can catch up.”

Jack Hudson saw Jack O’Neill’s mischief smile and grinned, “ I like that idea.”

So the new mothers took their bundles of joy to the bedroom to get them changed and ready for a brisk walk around the block. As they came back with Jonathon and Jacqueline in their arms, their daddies took them and put them in the snugglies that they were both wearing, then headed out the door.

The women pulled back the curtain as they watched their significant others backs as they walked down the sidewalk that had a splattering of red on the concrete with brown and yellow leaves in the grass making a perfect fall day for togetherness and unity among this elite group of soldiers, who just happened to be fathers, and grandfathers to two perfect little bundles of joy.




FIN

Very lovely family scene...
Thanks for sharing this story with us Debbie.
I enjoyed it a lot
Josy

A perfect ending at a wonderful family gathering. Thanks Debbie. I enjoyed the merging of the show's characters. And Jack/Sue, Bobby/Tara grandparents. It doesn't get anybetter than that!

Lynn

What a perfect autumn ending -- so many happy families and great friendships that will stand the test of time.

kav

Two beautiful babies born into two loving families!! They will definitely be spoiled, with all those grandfathers around!!!

I'm so glad that they all got together for Thanksgiving!! I love a good story where even friends are very precious members of the families!!!

Thanks for sharing, Scottiedog!! Wonderful, wonderful story!!!

Joy

What a nice warm family gathering with close friends and the new babies. I loved grandpa's idea to let the mother's get some rest and Jack's reaction nothing gets by him. Sweet having the mom's watching the new daddies walking off with the babies. Very sweet story.

New daddies and granfdaddies!

Awesome autumn ending. It was fun to read about the families all growing. Grandpa Jack and Grandpa Bobby are still a little hard to picture, but you certainly made them come to life.

That was sweet.




Hope ~
