“Jeez, what happened to you?” Gibbs asked as I limped over to where he and a few others were gathered. “Yeah, Shadow you look like hell” Tony piped up from next to Gibbs. I sighed, I already figured they were going to say something. “I don’t want to talk about it” I grumbled. However, I knew it was futile, because they can be very stubborn. Yep there it was,“Come on Shadow, you gotta give us something about what happened” Tony said. I sighed again, really not wanting to explain about why I’m all wet and dirty, with a nasty gash on my right shin. Thinking about it, if I saw myself, I would also be very concerned for my well being. Once again, I sighed, I've been doing that a lot, I mused silently before I started to explain. “Ok, fine, a group of people got the drop on me next to a river, we fought, mostly in the river. Of course I won, they’re fine, they went running.” I knew what Gibbs would say before he even said anything. “Ok, well you need to get that gash checked out, go see Ducky” Gibbs said. Knowing I won’t be able to protest, I just did what he said to do, but not without giving him a look.
