The Case Brings Out The Truth.

Chapter 3

A/N: Thank you for all the reviews, they put a smile on my face. Sorry for the long delay, been busy and was kind of stuck on what to do, and because it's such a sensitive subject I wanted to try and get it right. But anyway enough about me, on with the story!

Previously:

The woman held out her hand for Henry to Take and they walked down the hall way.

Tony turned to Gibbs and the team.

"I guess that you want to get Mike then, would ya?" Gibbs asked and Tony nodded.

"Defiantly" and walked into interrogation room 1, and the rest of the team went into observation room 1.

Tony walked in interrogation and sat down opposite Mike.

"What have you done Mike".

Mike didn't say anything but just leaned back in his chair, slight smile on his face.

Tony noticed the smile 'You murder your wife and abused your kid, and you're smiling about it? Sick or what' he thought.

"I talked to your son. Apparently you and your wife didn't get along the night she died" Tony said looking Mike in the eye.

"We had a disagreement".

Tony sighed "One hell of a disagreement to kill her".

Mike clenched his fists "I didn't kill my wife".

"Really, because she begged you to not do something before she died" Tony said.

"How the hell would you know?!" Mike replied annoyed.

"Got a witness".

"Who?".

Tony leant forward "Your son".

"That kid doesn't know anything" Mike said frowning.

"He saw you stab his mother" Tony said, getting close to wanting to kill the man sitting opposite him.

"I want a lawyer" Mike said.

"Tough, S**t. Now why did you kill her?" Tony said.

There was silence for a couple of minutes, until Mike spoke "She found out what I was doing to that kid. She said that she was going to tell the police and leave me. That bastard always came first with her, she always helped him. He should do everything by himself and not be such a baby" Mike said in disgust, like he was more important.

Tony stood up suddenly "HE WAS 12 YEARS OLD, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT!" he shouted.

Mike smiled and stood up as well "Protecting that kid are you. No point really, he's useless".

And that was when Tony lost it. He grabbed Mike by the collar and yanked him forward and said "You're a selfish, arrogant, son of a b***h who beat his kid and murdered his wife, for your own selfish needs" then let go of him and took a deep breath.

Mike observed Tony and frowned with interest "Is it me, or do you have your own daddy issues?" he asked.

Tony gave him a look "The only issue I have is you" and walked around the table and put Mike's arms behind his back "You're under arrest for the murder of Emily Jackson and child abuse. Anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law..." and Tony read him his rights and took him out the room.

NCIS Bullpen: NCIS NCIS NCIS NCIS.

The team were sitting at their desks, filling out their reports when Henry and Symone from Social Services walked past.

"Agent DiNozzo?" Tony looked up to see the Symone "Henry would like to speak with you".

Tony nodded and walked over to the window Henry was looking out at "Hey buddy".

Henry looked at Tony, who was now kneeling next to him, and asked "What's going to happen to me now, Tony?".

Tony thought for a moment then said "Is there anyone that you can trust to live with? Someone you know won't hurt you".

"My Aunt Charlie" Henry replied with a smile.

"Okay. While I give your Aunt a call and tell her to come here. Can you wait with the lovely lady again?" Tony said. Henry nodded and walked over to Symone.

Tony walked over to his computer and got Charlie's phone number and gave her a call and explained the situation that happened.

When Charlie arrived at NCIS she was escorted by an Agent. She had light brown hair and was wearing dark blue jeans and a plain red t-shirt. She was guided in the direction of the Bull pen and stood by the entrance "I'm here to see Agent DiNozzo?" she asked.

Gibbs looked up and saw Charlie. He stood up and walked over to her. "You must be Henry's Aunt?" he asked, holding out his hand for her to shake.

"Yes, Charlie Miller" she said, taking Gibbs hand.

"I'm Special Agent Gibbs. Henry is with Agent DiNozzo at the moment. Before I take you to see him, there's some forms I need you to fill out?" Gibbs asked.

Charlie nodded "Yeah sure".

NCIS Conference Room: NCIS NCIS NCIS NCIS

Tony and Henry were in the conference room, playing Hangman. Henry had won two games already, and Tony one.

"Ummm….F?" Tony guessed.

"Nope" Henry giggled and he drew a head.

Tony frowned. Five goes and he only had the third letter, which was A. "G?" he guessed.

Henry smiled "Yes!" and he put G at the end. It was only a seven letter word.

Two goes later and the hangman had a body and one arm. "Can I have a clue?" Tony asked.

Henry thought for a second with a smile in his face while he made a humming noise. "Only one".

Tony smiled "Okay, what's my one clue?".

Henry looked around the room in thought. It took him a minuet before he had thought of something "You are it".

Tony raised his eyebrows "Silly?" he guessed. Henry shook his head and Tony guessed again "Crazy? Loopy?".

Henry giggled "None of them have seven letter's, silly!".

"See, I am silly then!" Tony laughed.

Just at that moment the door opened and Gibbs walked in, Charlie following behind. Henry turned around at the sound of the door opening and saw Charlie "Aunt Charlie!" he shouted and ran towards her.

Charlie knelt down and pulled Henry in for a tight hug "Hello Henry".

"I have something I want to ask you, Henry" Charlie said as they pulled away.

Henry nodded and waited for his aunt to say something.

"Is it okay if you come and live with me?" she asked, afraid he was going to say no to her.

Henry smiled "Yes! I would love to live with you, auntie Charlie!".

Charlie gave him a big smile "That's great!".

Tony smiled at the scene in front of him. He was happy that Henry was going to live with someone that made him happy and filled him with joy.

Charlie looked at Gibbs "Can you take him downstairs for a moment?" she asked.

Seeing him frown she said "I would like to have a word with Agent DiNozzo, if that's okay?".

"No, that's fine" he said "Come on Henry, let's go and say goodbye to everyone" he said and Henry followed him out the room.

Charlie tuned to Tony and said "Thank you".

"For what?" he asked.

She smiled "For looking after him. And for making him smile for real" .

Tony gave her a smile "I'm glad I could help".

"Do you have children of your own, Miss Miller?" Ton asked.

"Unfortunately, I cannot have children" she replied.

"I'm sorry" Tony apologised.

"It's fine. I have Henry now" she smiled "And I am not going to do what his father did to him".

Tony nodded, trusting her.

NCIS Bull Pen: NCIS NCIS NCIS NCIS

Henry had said goodbye to Ziva, Bishop, McGee, Ducky and Abby. Now they were just waiting for Charlie and Tony. Just when Gibbs was going to go and see what was going on, he spotted Tony and Charlie walking down the stairs.

"You ready to go Henry?" Charlie said and Henry nodded.

Henry turned to Tony and gave him a hug. At first Tony hesitated, but he eventually returned the hug. "Thank you for saving me Tony".

"Your welcome bud" Tony smiled.

Henry pulled away and smiled at Tony.

Tony knelt down and reached into his pocket and pulled out one of his cards. "This is my number, Okay. You can call me at any time. Day or night, if you need someone to talk to" he said and gave Henry the card.

"Goodbye Tony" Henry said.

"See ya later, Henry" Tony smiled.

Henry and Charlie walked to the elevator. "Wait" Henry said and he walked back to the bull pen "The word was Amazing, Tony" he smiled and walked back to his aunt.

Tony smiled and he felt his heart swell with happiness. It was the word Tony was trying to guess in hangman.

A/N: There will be more, so don't go away. Please review and tell me what you think, Thanks – Haylee!
