Let's see I own…nothing. It's that just the world's biggest surprise? It's not like you didn't know by now that I don't own Rhade, Nick, Bug, Legolas, Harper, Dylan (a.k.a. Hercules), Gill, Beka, William, Wesley, Greg, Trip, Archer, Kirk, Spock, Rommie, Doyle, Jordan, Luke, or Boe.
This is my first CSI fic. I usually write for Andromeda though I have been thinking about this one for a while. I only got to see a few shows before my grandma decided that I was too young to watch them even though I had been watching it on weekends for when I was at my moms for about two years. So most of my knowledge comes from other fics. Feel free to correct anything that you feel needs to be corrected. I'm not going write sex scenes, details about the investigation, or fight scenes due to lack of knowledge. Okay I might work in a little kissing and or closer stuff but it won't be too intense due in part to my bountiful knowledge and the limits on this sight though I do know one story that gets REALLY involved.
I know this probably isn't the best of ideas for a story but I actually thought of this before I Even knew about fanfcition. I came with similar stories for Star Trek TNG when I first saw it too.
Oh yeah here's my summary: While investigating a teenage suicide Nick's niece shows up claiming that her father is dead. He agrees to take care of her when his nephew who is n the Marines gets sent to Iraq.
Rating: PG-13 because I may add a few cuss words later, some interaction, and maybe some fighting if I can figure out how to write it. This is also basically because I have no clue how to decide a stories rating so I rate them all same. If at anytime I should change it let me know.
That's enough of my ranting I'll get on to my story.
Family and Friends
Chapter 1: The Picture
"Hey Nick you've got to see this," Greg called from the break room.
"See what?" Nick followed him in and looked around not seeing anything strange.
"This," Greg pointed to the bulletin board.
Nick walked over looking at the pictures and newspaper clippings. What caught his eye though was a pencil drawing. Taking a closer look he couldn't help but stare. It looked like a picture that was taken at his last family reunion. His niece was in front with himself, his nephew, and his brother behind her. "Who put this up?"
"No clue," Greg shrugged getting a cup of coffee. "I just noticed it when I came in this morning."
Nick took it down looking for any sign of who had drawn it. I he could find was a Star Trek like symbol in the bottom right hand corner. "Hey your into sci-fi do you recognize this?" He showed Greg the symbol.
"It looks like one I've seen before. I don't know where though."
"What's that?" Sarah asked walking into the break room.
"A picture," Nick showed it to her.
"Is that you?"
"I think it's one of the pictures they took a tour family reunion last year."
Sarah helped herself to some coffee. "And here I was thinking that you drew it."
"There's no way I could ever be that good."
"Who did it then?"
"Hey Nick what are you doing tonight?" Warrick asked joining them.
"Nothing yet," Nick replied. "Have you seen this before?"
"No who's it?"
"No clue," Greg answered.
"Probably belongs to that kid that was in here yesterday," Catherine said walking in.
"What kid?" Gill asked joining them and accepting the cup of coffee that Catherine offered.
"I caught one of the high schoolers in here yesterday. She claimed to have stopped to tie her shoe and gotten lost."
Gill took the picture and examined it closely. "That looks the symbol off of again," Sarah said.
"It's a web sight dedicated to Andromeda, CSI, and Star Trek," Greg answered. "One of the main writers uses the name Beka Rhade and that symbol."
"What do you know about this writer?" Nick asked taking the picture back.
"You can read the bio she put on the internet," Gill said.
"When did you get into sci-fi?" Greg asked.
"A few years ago," Gill shrugged. "Though I mainly read the CSI stories."
"You live that why do you want to read what other people think we do?" Catherine asked.
"Oh well," Nick shrugged as everyone turned to Gill. "I've got an interview in a few minutes," he carefully folded the drawing and stuck it in his back pocket before getting his own cup of coffee.
This is only the beginning and even if it doesn't sound all that interesting it might hopefully get better. So please review. I'm thinking about hooking Nick up with someone. Who should it be? Also feel free to e-mail me with any advice that you might have.
