Disclaimer: I definitely don't own any characters.

Author's Note: I have this story taking place at a time after Grissom Leaves although both he and Sara will be coming back in my story, and they will be coming back together!!! This is my first story so I hope you like (I'm very nervous) I picture this as crossing a series of episodes so hopefully I can tie this up without confusing or disappointing anyone.

Summary: I see this taking place sometime after Grissom Leave although until I see Lawrence Fishburn's character on screen I won't write him. A FBI CSI comes to town for her brother's wedding and ends up staying on as a CSI in Las Vegas. She will be tied to more than one CSI character (one will be obvious) but haven't quite figured out which yet. Will be Nick/OC, GSR and maybe some others.

Preface

Sam was just getting ready to pay the cab driver when her cell phone started to ring. Flipping open the phone she said, "Hey just a sec." and proceeded to pay the driver. Walking into the lobby of the Bellagio hotel, Sam started to talk on the phone again. "Hey big brother I just arrived... Yes I know I know, let me get checked in, cleaned up and changed I'll meet you in your room….655 ok I'll be there in a bit".. Sam went up to the desk "Samantha Krieg is checking in". The desk clerk went through the whole checking in routine giving her room key, room number, information about the hotel and the city, things Sam has heard before. Sam takes they key and heads to her room to shower away the D.C to Las Vegas travel exhaustion she felt all over her body.

Two hours after checking in, Sam made her way to her brother's room. When she reached room 655 she noticed the room door ajar. Knowing Kyle he was leaving it open in order for her to come in undisturbed. She really hated it when he did things like this, since it went against everything their father had instilled upon them about security, which she still used working at the FBI forensics lab. When she reached the door, she tapped lightly just as a courtesy knock. "Ok who's the older one here?" as she slowly opens the door. With a hand over her eyes she walks in saying "Dad would have a coronary if he saw the door left open. ". After not hearing anything, Sam took her hand away from her eyes. " Kyle?" she asked as she made her way to the main area of the room. What she saw next made her stomach drop. "Kyle?" she asked, but she knew since she has seen scenes similar to this too many times in her line of work. Going to the room phone she dialed 911. "I need to report a dead body in room 655 at the Bellagio. Possible homicide….. I'm Samantha Krieg, FBI".

Reese, Greg and Nick arrived at the crime scene. Originally it was just suppose to be Reese and Greg but since things around the CSI lab was oddly slow, Catherine sent Nick to help out with the scene. Brass came up to fill in the CSI's as to what was going on.
"Kyle Krieg, age 37, no signs of forced entry, poor guy was supposed to be getting married."
"Kyle Krieg?" Nick asked.
Nick went toward the body and saw a sight he didn't expect. "Are you all right?" Reese asked. "Uh, yeah I'm fine. I knew this guy back in Texas. We went to high school together." Nick stated with a sigh and continued, "Who found the body?"
"I did." Nick turned toward the very familiar voice . "Hello Nicky," Sam said stepping toward the CSI, "It's been a long time."
"I'm so sorry." was all Nick could say. Greg stepped up "Greg Sanders, Las Vegas Crime Lab what is your relationship to the victim?" Sam looked over at Greg, "He's my brother." Reese stepped up, "Hey Greg let's you and me have a look around, Nick can handle the questions." Reese had a feeling that there might have been a past between the two and this might be useful with questioning. She grabbed her kit and started to look around the room.
"Listen Sam I am sorry but there are.." Sam was quick to jump in "Yes Nick I know the routine, I'm a CSI in the FBI office in DC, but I need to call my father and Kyle's fiancé. I wanted to make sure the scene was secure before I contacted them. " "Of course I understand", Nick said, "I really am sorry Sam" Nick said as he reached out to give Sam a consoling hug. As soon as Sam felt Nick's embrace she broke down for the first time since discovering her brother's body.
