Cate's Nap




"So Lieutenant you have no idea where those prescription pads went?"

Agent Caitlin Todd didn't believe a word the young Lieutenant was saying. She
was aboard the USS Seahawk the massive carrier in port at Norfolk. Not long
after putting in, prescription notes from the carrier's dentist section had
showed up on base. A ring of prescription drug thieves seemed to be using the
pads to steal from the Navy. NCIS had been tasked to find out who was
responsible. Cate's gut was telling her the twenty something Lieutenant
Williams in front of her was responsible. Her answers were not rubbing Cate
the right way and her body language screamed that she wanted to get away from
Caitlin.

"Like I said ma'am several times, I don't know how our scripts got taken." Lt.
Williams was a thin tall blonde. Her hair was pinned back and away in standard
military style. Her khaki uniform hug tight to her curves but still seemed
within regulation.

"Then you won't mind letting me search the office?" Cate replied. She was
dressed in a dark navy colored suit. A left over from her Secret Service days
the suit had a skirt that was just a little above knee length. The sudden
arrival of cool weather before she left had prompted Cate to put on some
pantyhose before leaving the office. This of course had led to a comment from
DiNozzo before she left who had instantly spotted the change to Cate's legs.
Some black heels completed the look. Her brunette hair was down to her
shoulders and Cate's red lips smiled as the officer twitched at the request.

"Agent Todd I'm sorry but ... ." The lieutenant started.

Cate didn't let up, "Are you worried I'll find something?"

Williams wanted to smack the noisy agent but kept her mouth shut, "Of course
not ma'am."

She moved aside letting the NCIS Agent pass. The blonde naval officer though
winced, damn it she'll find my money, why the hell didn't I get it off the
ship! Starting to panic Lt. Williams knew that she had a way to deal with
Agent Todd. It would be tricky but maybe she could pull it off. Following Todd
inside she saw the compartment where she worked and the anesthetic was stored.
Caitlin didn't pay much attention to the large green tanks that were stored
along the wall. She was going through the desk the lieutenant used.

"If I'm going to find anything, best to tell me now", Cate told Williams.

Williams was standing next to a cabinet which she discreetly opened. Luckily
the hinges had just been oiled earlier in the day so she opened the door with
ease. Grabbing a syringe she also took a small bottle of sedative. She
answered the agent as she quickly took some of the sedative into the syringe,
"You won't find anything Agent Todd because I haven't done anything."

She finished just in time pocketing the syringe and bottle as Agent Todd
turned around, "Why don't I believe you lieutenant?"

Williams intentionally looked towards a drawer before looking back at Agent
Todd. Gotcha! Cate thought with a smile, "So I won't find anything in here ...
"

Cate turned her head to open the drawer which is when Williams struck. She
came forwards and snapped her arm tightly around Cate's waist and pulled her
close against her. Before Caitlin could counterattack the dental anesthetist
jabbed her syringe into Cate's neck! Her eyes widened and face winced as the
needle hit home. Williams pumped the contents of the syringe into Cate's body
pulling the syringe out quickly. She stepped back and admired her handiwork.

"You made a big mis ... take ... .." Caitlin reached for her Sig Sauer pistol
but as soon as her fingers gripped the gun, they seemed to lose their
strength. Cate shook her head as things became blurry. She tried to steady
herself on the desk but bumped into it, causing her to grip the edge to regain
her balance. Williams smiled coming forwards taking Cate's gun from its
holster.

"I don't think so Agent Todd, you should have remembered where we were and
what my job is." Williams put the gun out of reach before yanking a chair out.
She shoved Cate into the chair where her head tilted back as she struggled
against the drug in her system.

"What ... did ... .you give me ... .." Cate mumbled as she tried to fight off
the injection.

Williams grabbed Cate's arms and pulled them behind the chair. She wanted to
tie the agent up just in case the sedative dose she gave didn't last as long
as she thought it would. However there was no rope or anything. Spotting her
bag which was packed for her getaway from the carrier, Williams pulled it over
and rummaged inside for something that would fit the bill.

"Always hated wearing these with my dress uniform", Williams said aloud, "Glad
they have some use."

A pair of pantyhose was crumbled in Williams's hand as it came out of the bag.
With a smile she tied the flesh colored nylon around Agent Todd's wrists. Cate
felt her wrists crossed together and then the grip of the nylon around them.
Williams stood up and prepared the next part of her plan. Cate struggled a bit
but found drugged she was still too weak to break the pantyhose which was
quite tight.

"I need some time to get off the base, so you're going to relax here Agent
Todd."

Williams had pulled over one of her gas tanks of anesthetics. With years of
practice under her belt she hooked up a clear mask and tube to the tank. This
she then fitted over Agent Todd's face. Cate feeling a little stronger said,
"What are you doing?"

Williams twisted the knob atop the tank with a turn, causing a hiss to fill
the room. Cate heard this too and wondered what was flowing into her mask. It
didn't take her long to recognize the smell, one she hated from the dentist.
She struggled but Williams smirked, "That's right Agent Todd a little nap is
in order, no point fighting it, nobody can."

Cate shook her head trying to get the mask off her nose and mouth but it was
useless. With each breath she sucked in more gas which was making her light
headed. Williams taunted her by asking, "Want to countdown from a hundred?"

Cate wanted to say something very catholic but her strength was waning. Her
head began to tilt forwards as the gas put her to sleep. Her pretty brown eyes
were getting harder to keep open. Cate's body slackened as her muscles started
to relax. She let out a loud sigh as her lungs drank in more of the tainted
air. Williams saw that Agent Todd was almost out, to make sure she stayed that
way long enough for her to make an escape, she turned up the gas for a brief
moment. The increased amount caused Agent Todd's eyes to widen for a moment.
They quickly closed though as she sighed heavily and slumped forwards.
Williams smiled and patted the unconscious agent on the head, "Nightie night
Agent Todd."

Cate couldn't answer as she slumbered. Williams turned down the gas and left
it at a brief trickle which wouldn't hurt Agent Todd but keep her nice and
out. Packing up her money the corrupt lieutenant also took Agent Todd's phone
battery. Nobody would be finding her for hours. Locking Cate inside the office
Williams made her escape. Cate didn't worry about this as she was still out
inside the office. Her brown hair hanging down around her face, eyes shut
tight with the clear gas mask keeping her docile, and tied up with a pair of
pantyhose, the NCIS Agent had only thought one thing before passing out.

I'm never going to hear the end of this from DiNozzo ...
