Insanity of Sara Sidle
This is a little different.
Sara is placed in a scenario where all her past nightmares come back to haunt her, can her friends save her, or will she end up like her mother. GSR included .
CBS owns CSI, I only own the horror of my own mind. (creepy huh?)
Chapter 1
Sara Sidle was an enigma. Not only to her colleagues and friends, but to herself as well.
Now this was thrust upon her. Only problem was, what was this? Where was she?
She remembers falling, a sharp pain in her leg, then everything went black as her head hit something hard. It was still pitch black, but she was awake. Looking up she saw a vague lightening in the sky, she saw a star. She tried to stand only to fall down and gasp with pain shooting through her leg, she grasped it tightly only to feel it wet and sharp.
Feeling around in her surroundings, she found her kit and flashlight, she used the flashlight to examine her leg to find bone poking through the skin and material of her slacks. It screamed compound fracture, nasty. She looked around her and saw dark walls, no passages shooting off from it. She realized where she was, and the thought chilled her. She had been at a crime scene in the mining town just outside of Vegas, she had finished the scene and was walking back her Denali when the ground fell out from under her. Now she was stuck at the bottom of an unfinished mineshaft, probably unmarked too.
'Great Sidle, now you have really stuffed things up, they'll never find you now, hidden in an unknown mineshaft.'
The walls were eroded somewhat but not enough to find handholds to climb out with, harder to do with a broken leg and probably a concussion. She felt the back of her head, her hand came away wet, blood.
She hung on to the hope that someone would find the SUV, and hunt for her. She tried her cell phone but knew there would be no signal, there wasn't. She took stock of any other injuries she might have, mostly cuts and scratches from the fall. She now had to play the waiting game. She fell asleep since she hadn't slept much earlier.
After waking she realized that this hole was smaller than she'd like, she felt claustrophobic, trapped and she could feel her rational thoughts being pushed to one side and replaced with irrational ones. Her mind was running rampant, running through her life and picking out every last gory detail, her childhood, the horrors instilled back then. Every little painful thing that had happened to her, the lab explosion, the asylumn, Nick buried alive, Natalie and that ordeal in the desert. They all ran circles around in her mind while she was herself done this hole. She fought it but failed, her own mind ceasing to see logic and reason. 'Don't kid yourself Sidle, now you are buried alive, just like Nick was with difference of course, no one knows you are missing yet and you aren't sitting on a bomb. How long before someone notices and comes back here, who would care? '
Sara felt the first wave of panic overtaking her, panic and pain, the familiar sensations that had never left, just like the anxiety now biting at her. Her mind started flashing back to her childhood and the abuse, increasing her anxiety, now everything she'd felt came back in a rush, overwhelmed her suddenly and her mind began a spiral downwards into an abyss of horror, pain and hopelessness. The concussion from earlier hampered any reasoning processes her brain struggled to find. She just kept falling, unconscious, panicked, and terrified.
She lay there in the dark, cold, unconscious and full of fear, pain smashing at the dark recesses in her mind and there was no one to comfort her, nothing anyone could do, no one around. She was alone in her terror. Her own mind became her worst enemy.
Back at the lab, Grissom became concerned because Sara was overdue, she had left the crime scene at the same time as Jim Brass had, a little bit behind him, but she was seen heading for her car with her kit and evidence bags. He called Brass.
"Jim did you see Sara actually get in her car and leave?"
"No Gil, but she had everything and no more than a few yards from the SUV when I left. Isn't she back yet?"
"No. And I'm worried, we need to get back out there, her car might have broken down, run off the road, anything."
"Meet you in the parking lot in 5 minutes then Gil."
Grissom tried calling Sara. It went to her voicemail.
"Nick grab your kit, Catherine and meet me in the parking lot in 3 minutes. It's urgent."
In the car Grissom filled them in with what sketchy details he knew, how it was something of riddle to be solved now, but they had to find her.
