Title: Montezuma Author: daughtershade Fandom: Magnificent 7 (ATF AU)/NCIS Rating: PG-13 Pairing: None Prompt: The two teams have to work together on a case. Summary: A murder of a Marine Corporal brings Gibbs and the NCIS team in conflict with Denver’s ATF special unit Team Seven.
Author notes: I want to thank settiai for asking for this prompt because it let me write in TWO fandoms that I love, but have never written in.
This takes place sometime during NCIS Season 5, the current season, but there aren’t any real spoilers. There is mention of fallout from the season opener “Bury Your Dead” but nothing specific. Also there is a slight mention of events from the Season 4 episode “Dead Man Walking”.
As for the Mag7 boys, of course I have to give a nod to Mog who originally came up with the ATF universe and was kind enough to let everyone else play in it. The only episode spoilers that could be considered for Mag7 is a mention of the Season 2 episode “Lady Killers” all-be-it a modernized ATF version of it.
I have also alluded to a previous friendship between the NCIS character Dr. Donald Mallard (AKA Ducky) and the Magnificent Seven character Judge Orrin Travis. This is meant as a nod to Man from UNCLE fans since the characters are played by David McCallum and Robert Vaughn respectively. They were, of course, the two main actors from MUNCLE.
The title of this fic not only references the Marines’ Hymn, but also the more common use of ‘Montezuma’s Revenge.’ Both of which seemed apt for the meeting of these two teams.

For reference, I made Magnificent Seven and NCIS guides with extra information for newcomers along with character photos and such.
I have also created a wallpaper to go along with the fic. You can get it here.
I love this. More Sumner fic is always a pleasure to read but pretty rare, I'm guessing not only because he died so soon on the show but that he seems potentially harder character to write for. I…
Ah, poor Sumner - never to see his way home again! Good stuff, though - it would have been nice if he and Sheppard had gotten along eventually. I enjoyed!
