A Light to Call Home

“This is me Tony. This is who I made of myself, but it’s not who I wanted to be.”
“I know. I know. You wanted to be a ballerina."

Ziva returned home to Israel to face her demons and start over. She wanted to follow her heart and when Tony left her that was just what she was about to do. Two years later her life was destroyed by an explosion and Tony was left to raise a daughter he hadn't even known existed. To protect his daughter from losing all she had left he walked away from his job at NCIS. Now two and a half years later Tony is picking up the pieces of his broken heart and learning how to live in a world without his best friend and ex partner.

Ziva was finally happy. She was given a miracle by the only man she'd ever loved only for the darkness in her life to rip her child away. She's been wandering lost and consumed by her grief. She is quickly losing the will to fight and a shell of the person everyone at NCIS knew. Longing for some kind of purpose again she finds herself returning to NCIS hoping maybe there is still a home waiting for her.
