Hey so this is my first fanfiction on here. I originally did this for a school project a few years ago but I finally decided to put it on here. This is an AU story set in 2024. Starring Arabella, this daughter of Danny and Lindsey Messer, and Lucy, the new found daughter of Mac Taylor from CSI NY.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the character's you may reconize from the show, I just like to play with them; however Arabella, her siblings, Lucy, the Flack kids, and some future characters are of my own creation.

Witness

"Arabella!" hollered Lindsay Messer, Arabella's mother. "Lucy will be here soon!"

"Hold on. These stupid curls are driving me mad!" Arabella shouted back. She has been trying to get these three blonde curls to stay in her pony tail for an hour.

She and her best friend Lucy Taylor were going to the party that was supposed to be the 'best party of summer 2024'. Lucy had just moved to the states to live with her dad from London, where she had lived with her mum and Arabella wanted to introduce her to some friends before school started in the fall. So they just had to go.

"Ara!" being pulled out of her thoughts, she heard her little brother Louie call "She's here!"

"I'm coming, I'm coming,' Arabella muttered just loud enough to be heard. When she got to the living room, the girls said hello and good bye to Arabella's parents, siblings, and the Flack twins Jason and Lily. And they left to walk to the party.

On the walk the girls laughed and talked about their day and how excited Lucy was to start school in the fall for the first time in America. Arabella told Lucy about something Louie and Kelly had done earlier.

"Bang!" The girls turn to look at each other wide eyed. "Bang!" There it went again.

"Ok . . . What was that?" Lucy whispered frightened.

"I think it was a gun shot," Arabella answered.

Lucy had her mobile out and was dialing her dad, when the girls turned the corner they found two dead bodies, one body shot in the head and one in the back. Arabella screamed when she saw the bodies just as her "uncle" Mac Taylor answered the phone. Lucy told them what had happened and where they were. Mac said to stay calm and he and the team would be there soon. The team consisting of Stella Bonasera, Mac, Don and Jess Flack, Danny and Lindsay Messer arrived to the crime scene in a matter of minutes.

When the team got there they took the crime scene photos. The dead bodies were both white females, one with brown hair, blue eyes and one with blonde hair, green eyes. Danny Messer thought they looked to much like Arabella and Lucy for comfort.

Stella Bonasera and Lindsay Messer were trying to calm down the girls. Lucy was almost in tears and Arabella was just in shock. When the girls finally calmed down Lindsay suggested they go ahead to the party because the team would be at the crime scene for a long time. Then the girls left and went to the party.

Lucy and Arabella arrived at the party it was already in full swing and people were asking what had taken them so long. Because they were told not to talk about the crime scene, they said that Arabella was showing Lucy around. The girls went around talking to friends and introducing Lucy to the few she didn't know. Around midnight the girls decided they should head home if they were going to make it before curfew. When they walked out of the apartment building where the party was held and hailed a cab. Arabella told the driver the address and he said buckle up now. Thinking that was a little dodgy and not wanting any trouble, they did what he said. The cab driver drove around, not going where she had told him to for a long time and the girls were starting to worry but thought it would better to not say anything to make him mad.

Now it was 1:00 A.M. and Arabella knew something was wrong they should be home by now but they were still in the cab. She grabbed her bag and looked for her phone, it wasn't there. She told Lucy to check her bag for her mobile. It wasn't there. That was when the girls realized they were in trouble.
