It was 9:00 am and Sara had decided to get up and get ready to go visit her mother. It has been 3 months since she left her life in Las Vegas for a more calming life in San Francisco. She was just starting to get a hold of her new life. No more victims, no more worries about work. Also, no more Gil. She was very upset that she had to leave him behind.
Sara had rolled out of bed and into the shower. She had the water running and couldn't hear anything in her surroundings. Couldn't hear the couple in the apartment beside her yelling at each other, couldn't hear the birds chirping, couldn't hear the man entering her apartment.
He was completely covered in black from head to toe. He wore a ski mask to hide his identity. He also had a gun hidden in the waistband of his slacks.
He entered the front room so silently, he took in his surroundings, and quickly devised a plan for an easy escape with the girl. He hid in a closet; waiting for his chance.
Sara walked out of the shower and got dressed. She headed towards the kitchen to grab some breakfast. She just got to her fridge when she heard a creak from behind her. She quickly spun around and saw a man walking towards her with a gun drawn.
Sara froze. She looked worried for a moment then calmed herself down, "What do want?"
The man just laughed, "I can't believe you travelled across state lines to get away from it all."
Sara started wondering how he knew all this about her. She left her old life behind.
The man walked a little closer, "I know all about you Sara. Your parents, your job, your Grissom."
"What do you want?" Sara repeated trying to change the subject.
The man grabbed one of Sara's arms, "I need your expertise as a CSI," the man started pulling Sara towards the door.
Sara fought back. She started punching the man in the gut. He stumbled back but kept a firm grasp on Sara's arm. The gun got dropped in the struggle so the man grabbed for a kitchen knife. He held it up to Sara's neck and she stopped struggling.
The man, now exhausted, said, "that's better. You try to fight back again and you will never be able to see your beloved Grissom again."
"What do you mean? I wasn't planning on seeing him again anyways," Sara said trying not to move and make things worse.
The man started releasing Sara, "you should see him, he misses you."
"Is there a reason you came here besides telling me Grissom misses me?" Sara said now trying to think of a way to get rid of him.
"Yes, there is. I came here to get you to come back to Vegas with me," the man said grabbing onto Sara's arm again.
Sara tried to back away, "I'm not going back to Vegas. I won't."
The man pulled a cloth out of his pocket, "what makes you think I'm giving you a choice?" he said as he covered Sara's mouth and nose.
Sara fought back and got out of his grasp. The man was quick though and grabbed the knife and stabbed her in the side. She doubled over in pain. The man covered her mouth again and everything went black.
Once Sara was out, the man carried her to his car. He put her in the trunk and tied her arms behind her back. He got in the car and drove off towards Las Vegas, Nevada.
