Work Text:
As a white sheet is placed over the remains of Navy Petty Officer First Class Bobby Wilkes, the medics having done everything they could to save him but ulimately failed as Petty Officer Wilkes has died, Gibbs knows that this isn't normal.
Or even an accident.
No...
If anything, this is a murder.
A cold, calculated killing.
Which means whoever supplied Wilkes with the drugs on board this very ship is going to great lengths to keep the crime hidden.
They can run.
But they won't be able to hide.
Not from the NCIS team.
Or Gibbs himself.
He'll mourn the death later.
Right now, though, they have a case to work on.
To solve.
Hopefully they can ID the killer.
And arrest him or her, preferably before more lives are lost.
