Nick opened his eyes and took in his surrounding, He lay on a small soft bed, in a small cold room. Shivering he looked down at himself and saw his shirt, shoe's, and sock had been removed. He yanked at the chains that held his arms above his head, to the head board.
"Stop that Nicky, you know you're not going anywhere." Delaney oily voice came from the far end of the room. Nick looked over and saw him sitting in a chair, which he pulled closer to the bed. Nick turned his head away from the hand that reached out to touch his face.
Then he felt Delaney crawled on top of him… and his cloths were now completely gone…. Nick screamed….
And sat up straight in is bed still trying fight off a demon, he blinked a few times as recognition set in and he realized he was at home in bed. He turned on the lamp and looked at the clock; the red digital numbers read four thirty A.M. It's been less than three days since he took me and tried to hurt me. His mind still tripped over the word rape as if it was the most shameful thing in the universe.
He took a few deep breaths trying to forget the dream but it stuck in his mind anyways. He turned his mind to something else, Delaney trial had been a speedy one; with a five minute jury deliberation, and a ten year sentencing that put Nick at ease for at least the next ten years.. He thought were cut off by the phone, he jumped and stare it surprise, he wasn't due to start work again until the following week; if he could pass the mental evaluation. The phone rang angina and Nick hurried to pick it up.
"Hello?" He asked biting back a yawn. Smiled to hear Grissoms voice on the other end.
"Nick I'm sorry I woke at such an hour but I figured you'd be awake, seeing as you used to theses hours anyways." Grissom babbled, and Nick got the distinct impression that he was beating around the bush about something.
"Yeah well, just trying to go back to sleep actually." He replied.
"Oh I see, having nightmares?" Grissom asked
"Yeah." Was Nick said to that one, no need to give him the gory details.
"Look, I need you to come to the lab right away." Grissom went deathly silent, no noise filled the background either, letting Nick know that every else was listening to them.
"Okay, why?" Nick asked.
"Something's happened and I think you should come to the lab till it's sorted out." Grissom explained, Nick felt his stomach turn over, and he swallowed hard.
"Okay I'll be there in twenty minutes tops." He replied and the call was cut, Nick jumped a shower and changes cloths in less then fifteen minutes, and then grabbing his keys and a ball cap left his house.
When he finally made to the lab he was met with stares and sympathetic eyes watched him walk up the hall to Grissom's office.
"Nicky, have a seat." Grissom motioned towards an empty chair between Warrick and Greg. Catherine and Sara sat of the either side of the boys. Nick watch them as he sat, their face showing him the same thing, what it was they wanted to come down here for it wasn't good.
"Umm, I don't an easy way to sat this so I'll just say it, Nick during prison transport, the bus crashed, and though most of the inmates were recaptured, some still managed to get away. We have reason the believe Samantha was among them." Grissom watched the emotions play out on Nicks face, anger, fear, and uncertainty.
"Do you think she'd try anything?" Nick asked, Sammy hadn't actually hurt beyond drugging him and laying out for Delaney to grab, Nick hadn't thought about her in weeks.
"We're not sure; Brass just thought you should be told, so you'll be a bit more careful in the field until we're sure she's not going to try anything." Catherine spoke up.
"So I can still come back to work next week?" Nick asked. Grissom smiled warmly and nodded.
"Yes, but you won't be pulling any solo's for a while you'll have a partner every shift for at least a couple of weeks." Grissom warned him.
"I can live with that, it's not forever right?" Nick grinned.
"No not forever just ill this thing blows over; hopefully Samantha just goes away and find's a place to hide out away from Las Vegas." Brass spoke up from the door. Nick turned to acknowledge him.
"Hey Nicky, I hope She does just go away for your sake. If she doesn't well, we'll just have to find and arrest her again." Brass grinned as he stepped into the already crowded office.
"The incompetent officers who were assigned the transport are being dealt with brutally, this is not the first they've screwed it up." Brass continued.
"Well, seeing as it's nearly time to head home, why don't we call it a night? Nick be careful." Grissom warned as he stood to leave.
"I won't put another detail on you but be cautious, need I say don't trust any one." Brass chipped on his two scents.
"I'll be careful." Nick promised and followed his friends out the door.
Delaney sat in cell, staring at the grey wall, when a guard came to gt him, said his sister was there to see him. He followed along like a good in mate and was surprised to Sammy sitting on the other side of the glass partition.
"Hey Mike, how's jail treating you?" Sammy asked him.
"Fine, are you sure you can find him?" Delaney asked grinning.
'Oh yeah, daisy took a shine to him when he showed up at the house she'll find him for me, But then what you can't have him in here?" Sammy asked.
"Oh don't you worry about that. I'll take care of getting out of the hell hole you just make sure you get Nicky, and have him ready for me." Delaney smiled manically. Sammy left him there, she and things to get done in order to be ready but the date he had given her. She couldn't wait have Nick with her, she too had some unfinished business with the CSI's.
A few hours later she pulled up to a house in the suburbs and climbing out was met by Daisy, who jumped up and down in excitement.
"Hey there daisy you ready play fetch." She grinned own at the happy dog, giving her a pat on the head.
