Chapter 1 – OLD WOUNDS RE-OPENED
A heavily pregnant woman is walking toward her home, the curtains twitch and her husband opens the door. Only to find his wife face down in a pool of blood. He runs to her screaming, when he reaches her he notices a strange smell in the air, after a couple of seconds he rips the mobile (cell) out of her hands and dials 911. Just as the operator picks up a shot is fired, the man reels back and falls to the ground a bullet hole between his eyes and a knife stuck out of his wife's neck.
[18 YEARS LATER]
Grissom and Sara are stood facing two bodies one male, one female and in the exact same position as the double homicide as 18 years ago. Grissom could tell that the female was pregnant by the way her body was hunched awkwardly around her lower abdomen. The scene was exactly the same except for the blood pool from the female. It contained a message:
SHE'S BACK
SO AM I
"Oh No" whispered Grissom to nobody in particular.
A young girl steps out of a taxi and walks towards the doors of the Las Vegas crime lab. Her baggy jeans and scruffy backpack making her look extremely out of place in the pristine lab. At the sight of her dirty blonde hair and tight fitting t-shirt Catherine steps in.
"'Scuse me miss, are you alright? Can I help you with something?"
"Are you Catherine Willows?" The girl's accent surprised Catherine, an English girl in a crime lab? She had to be lost, but the question took her aback.
"Yeah that's me and you are?"
