Gibbs had decided it was time to get away from NCIS. He felt it was for good this time. After losing Kate; almost losing Ziva, Tony and Tim; and finally losing Jenny - it was just too much. He had to find somewhere to get away.
The last time he left he had gone to the ocean. He decided he wanted to keep his feet on dry land this time. His sea-legs were a bit wobbly. And being near the ocean reminded him too much of times passsed.
Somehow he ended up in Royston, Georgia. It was a strange place. The people he had seen so far were a mixed bag, to say the least. Taking in his surroundings, he noticed things appeared completely normal on the surface, but to the trained eye - one like his - he could see that something strange was boiling just below the surface.
Gibbs primary decision in choosing Royston was the fact that he could get away from his past. This place was remote, barely even registered on the map. This was a place to start new. Little did he know his past was just around the corner.
