Chapter One

Greg Sanders was very proud and happy with what he was doing with his life at thirty-one, but he never expected that his past would catch up and haunt him. Greg had always known he was adopted and it wasn't till a few weeks ago, when he went to ask Grissom to help him find who his biological father was. He discovered that his father was a murderer. Greg actually thought it was kind of ironic with him being a CSI and all.

Grissom poked his head into the break room where Greg sat in thought about his father. "Greg, can I talk to you for a moment?" asked Grissom.

Greg sat up in the chair he was leaning back in. "Sure."

Grissom came in and sat down next to him. "I know you're not happy with your findings Greg."

"If that's what you came to talk about, I rather not," said Greg.

"Actually I wanted to let you know that you and I are going to the convention being held in Milwaukee," replied Grissom.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"You don't want to bring Sara?"

"No."

"What about Catherine?"

"No Greg."

"Or Ni-"

"Greg is it really so hard to believe that I want to take you to the convention?" asked Grissom.

"No, I was just checking."

"Good the plane leaves at noon. I suggest since you're off shift now that you go home and get ready."

Greg got up from his seat and started towards the exit before turning back to Grissom. "Thanks for helping me out. I mean with finding my dad, even if I didn't like the answer."

Grissom gave him a small smile before Greg turned and left the break room.


Greg had come home and quickly shoved some cloths into a bag. He wanted to get in some good rest before getting on the plane. Setting his luggage by the front door. He laid down on his couch closing his eyes and drifting off into sleep.

Greg was soon in the dream state the only problem was all he could see was black the only reason he knew he was dreaming was her heard the worried voice of a young girl murmuring something to an older man and the screams of a baby in the back ground. Another reason he knew it was a dream was that every once in awhile he could see his frightened two tear old self in his bed. There was a crashing noise and Greg woke up.

Greg laid there for a moment before sitting up rubbing his face. He tool a few deep breaths. That was the third time he had, had that dream and each time he had gotten further then he did the last. He looked over at the clock that hung on the wall it was ten. He hesitated a moment before getting up and grabbing his stuff to head out the door.


"Have you told him?" asked Sara sitting on the bed as Grissom packed his things.

"Told him what Sara. I already pretended to help him find his father," he replied.

"Because Greg deserves to know he still has family."

"Greg's lucky he knows he's adopted he knows he has family out there."

"What's that suppose to mean?" asked Sara.

"Their babysitter came to me in the middle of the night with them and told me their father tried to kill them. Two days later she was found dead."

"Grissom are you trying to tell me Greg has a sibling somewhere out there."

"He has a younger brother. I'm afraid if I tell him he'll ask me a bunch of questions that I may not have the answer to," replied him.

"Tell him Gil and answer everything he asks to the best of your ability. He'll appreciate it more then you keeping quiet. Come on I'll give you a ride to airport," said Sara. They both walked out the door.
