This story was interesting! Can’t wait for more!!
This Tony will take ‘no crap’ from anyone!
The idea of the fairy godmother was interesting, too! Does this make him special or a prince in disguise?

The team had had a case in Rock Creek yet again. Gibbs had power walked the trail as he was in a hurry to get to the body, Kate was running/jogging to keep up, neither one was looking at where their feet were and ignored Tony’s warning of the Fairy Ring they had just stepped in, that is until they found themselves frozen in place. One foot raised to continue their walk. The other stepping in the middle of the now glowing Ring.
Tony just stood back with his hand covering his face in disbelief that Gibbs at least was that stupid. Kate had no belief in the Fair Folk or the Little People feeling that they were just myths, as her priests told her.

Gibbs eyes looking pissed off and glaring while Kate was looking scared as this wasn’t supposed to be possible.
Tony’s Fairy Godmother popped up and looked at her Godson then at them and shook her head. They both remembered the way they met when he and his mom were out walking around the estate, she had bought the new family after she got pregnant. Her own family close to their own Fae so her own Godmother had come with her when she had moved there, claiming the Land for the whole family and putting it officially in the Clan’s name and keeping it from Clair’s husband. She and her own close family had run their own Rings on the Land so Tony knew just what trouble the two team members were in.

Tony’s Godmother flew around the head of each of them, and glared impishly back at Gibbs, called out a quote from A Mid-Summer’s Night Dream, “Oh what fool’s these mortals be.” Getting a giggle and a smoky poof. Out of it, Gibbs and Kate were out of the Ring and asleep. Kate was dressed as Ophelia, and Gibbs now had an ass’s head instead of his. The weapons that they had had on them were now wooden and placed away from them.

Tony just sighed as his Godmother giggled and disappeared, took a picture with his Blackberry and sent it to Morrow with the caption saying the pair ran afoul of Fairies. Send another team that won’t step in Fairy Rings. Oh, and send the Magical Reversal Team to un-bugger the stupid ones.

Morrow’s reply was just characters to show he was swearing before saying they were on the way. Then please take lots of blackmail pictures for later.
