Note: This story starts Tuesday January, 16th 2007. It's the beginning of the Graveyard shift.
Background info: Everything is the same as the show except Sara got tired of waiting for Grissom, so she moved on. She married a lawyer and is three months pregnant. Lindsay, Catherine's daughter, is 13 and is going through her rebellious stage and is a complete handful. Grissom (still alone), as team supervisor, has been told by his superiors that he needs to add a 7th member to his team because they are too stretched out when there are multiple cases. To remind you the team is: Grissom, Catherine, Sara, Nick, Warrick, and Greg. Like I said, nothing has changed.

Sara rolls over and grabs her phone.
"Hello?" she says sleeply.
"Sara? Are you asleep?" Catherine asks sarcastically.
"Ha ha. Not any more. What's up?" says Sara as she sits up in bed.
"Grissom wants us all together. He says he has some news for us. He also said not to worry 'cause no one's leaving" Catherine said reasureingly.
"OK I'll be right there." Sara said and she shut her phone.
About thirty minutes later everyone was in the break room except for Grissom.
"How can he be late if he's just down the hall?" asked Greg.
"He was on the phone when I walked by." said Sara.
Everyone looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders. Then the door swung open and Grissom walked in.
"Alright. Sorry I'm late." says Grissom as he sits at the table (the others sit as well), "I have some news. The head of the department called me three weeks ago. He says we need to hire one more to our team."
"And the reason for this would be what exactly?" asked Sara.
"He says we're stretched out too much when there are multiple scenes to process. He gave me the job of finding said newcomer." he replied.
"That's why you've been so preoccupied lately." said Catherine.
"Now the past three weeks make sense to me." said Nick. The others nodded in agreement.
"Yes, that is why. Which brings me to why you're all here. After many hours of searching, I have finaly found some one more than adequate for this job. Catherine gives Grissom a weird look Don't worry, I took the time to interview this person." said Grissom.
Just then a woman walked in. She had brown hair, really big glasses, old style clothes on and braces.
"Is this our..?" Catherine asked Grissom as she looked at the others.
Then the woman handed Grissom some files and left. She had come and gone without saying a word. This had creeped everyone but Grissom out.
"No, that was the department head's new assistant. This is the person I want you to meet." Grissom said as he opened the door and beconed their new coworker in.
"Daaaamn!"Warrick whispered as their new coworker walked in.
Nick smiled and nodded at Warrick in agreement. The girls were just as shocked. Even Grissom looked somewhat stunned, but he quickly got his expression under control.
They all knew that Grissom would hire some one who was right for the job no matter what they looked like. When he said this person was more than adequate they thought they were getting a 'bookworm' who looked somewhat like the girl who had given Grissom the files, but this person was so far from that, that you would never believe they were interested in Criminal Science.
Their new coworker was female. She is five foot five, with long brown hair, and deep blue eyes. She's wearing a pinstripe suit with a baby blue button down shirt, with the top three buttons unbuttoned, and her hair was in a ponytail which went down to the middle of her back. She was carrying a small, brown, leather back pack.
"This is Buffy, the new addition to our team." said Grissom as she stopped next to him.
Ok readers, sorry for the messups, just fixed everything...
