A/N: Hey, guys! You must all think I'm crazy by now, but I really don't care. Yes, it's another Tiva fic. I know, I know. But that's me, so don't blame me for who I am. So, I just randomly got the idea for this fic while on a different website and the name isn't even NCIS related, but that really doesn't bother me one bit.

You know how in all the fics, everybody wonders what would happen if Ziva just disappeared from NCIS and wasn't hear from again for years? I'm gonna switch it up and ask, what would happen if Tony left? What would that do to all others involved?

Disclaimer: Sadly, after all this time, I still do not own NCIS or anything affiliated with it. Thank you, DPB; we owe all of this to you.

"DiNozzo; my office; now," Director Vance said when I picked up my desk phone and said hello.

He hung up after that and I put the phone down, a confused look on my face. The director usually called Gibbs when he wanted to say something about one of us, so I figured it was personal. But considering the director and I don't have a personal relationship (in any way), the call didn't make any sense.

"Gibbs, the Director wants to see me," I said, standing up.

"Go," he said, saying everything in his look at me that his words didn't say. He didn't know why the director had called me up either.

I didn't look at Ziva or McGee on my way upstairs. I knew exactly what looks they would have on their faces. Ziva would look confused; her eyebrows furrowed, a frown on her face, her eyes scrunching up. McGeek would have his mouth open slightly, his eyes opening wider, the rest of his face slack. I know them both so well. I didn't even have to look at Gibbs when I told him the director wanted to see me because his face, I knew, would be as impassive as ever.

When I got upstairs, I walked across the catwalk to the director's office, passing the secretary who told me to go right into his office. I opened the metal door and closed it behind me, leaving the two of us alone in his office.

"Agent DiNozzo," the director said, standing up when he saw me.

"Director," I said with no emotion in my voice. I hadn't forgiven him for anything he'd done while here, good or bad. He didn't live his life in my good books, but you couldn't trash the director of the agency where you worked if you wanted to keep your job, so I kept my mouth shut about him. "You called?"

"Yes. I've been reviewing your file again. Director Sheppard offered you a position in Spain a few years ago and you declined. I assigned you to Agent Afloat last year, but you came home. Why is that? You could have your own team, yet you stay on Gibbs," he said, taking a seat at the table and gesturing to me to do the same.

I sat down stiffly across from him, expecting the worst. "I like it on Agent Gibbs' team. I'm happy here in DC. I've never considered leaving, even for a second," I said. "It's not something I'm really interested in."

"I have a position for you. A team lost its leader yesterday. They're all young; the oldest has only been out of FLETC for eight months. The leader liked taking on new recruits. They need a new team leader. Do you see where I'm going with this?" he asked me.

Sadly, I did. "Yes, sir," I said.

"Good. So you accept?" he asked.

"Do I have a choice?" I asked, knowing the answer again.

"Good, pack you bags, you fly out tomorrow night," he said, standing up and walking over to his desk and grabbed some folders.

"Where am I going?" I asked him.

"Our base in Italy; I suggest you brush up on your Italian." He handed me three folders and dismissed me from his office.

A/N: I know, I hate Vance too. So, what did you think? I actually really enjoyed writing this, even though it wasn't easy at all because I have a brace on my wrist, so it slows down my typing considerably. This was short, I know, but I'm hoping future chapters will be longer!

To those of you who were expecting an Alessandra DiNozzo update who are reading this, I couldn't get inspired to write it this weekend. Sorry! I will update that later this week!

If I get at least 5 reviews, I'll update with another chapter this week!
