Summary: While investigating a scene, the murderer comes back. Which means that there's more to the murder than the CSI's thought.
Disclaimer: I do not own CSI. This is the usual statement that goes throughout every fanfiction that has ever been made. (Just those that are CSI of course.)
Author's Note: It might take awhile to update the next chapter. Until then, feel free to review, review, review, and review. Thanks!
Chapter 1: The Scene of the Crime
Gregory Sanders dragged his kit along the steps of the old victorian house, and headed towards the door. It was made of wonderful oak wood, and it had a beautiful design on it. The windows were made of stained glass, and Greg couldn't help but pause to admire it. He sighed inwardly, then turned the doorknob, and went in. The cops had already checked out the scene, and there had been no one-save for the dead woman-around the house.
Inside the house, there was the usual musty smell that came with old homes. The wallpaper was needed replacement badly, and the floors were slowly rotting. Greg wondered how the owner could have lived here at all with the place such a mess. Then, shrugging his shoulders, he moved his way into the living room that looked somewhat better than the entrance hall. He gazed at the scene for a few minutes, then-almost without thinking-he picked up his camera, and snapped a few photos around the room.
The living room itself was huge, Greg noted. There was a pretty chandelier on the ceiling, and there was a large dining room table near a side door leading to another room. Greg frowned as he looked at the door. There seemed to be some strange markings on it...
He started towards the door, currently ignoring the victims body that was laying near the kitchen. The woman had been stabbed, and the knife was still sticking out of her. The look on her face was one of horror and pain. Greg paused slightly as he neared the door. He could smell something, but he wasn't sure what it was.
As he started snapping pictures of the door, he turned to snap pictures of the body. As he snapped pictures, he heard a creak behind him. He turned, but was to slow. He was struck from behind, and he fell to the floor. As he raised his arms to defend himself, he heard the sound of gunfire, and then felt pain in his right arm. Taking a breath, he looked at it, and saw that there was a bullet lodged there. He heard the intruder chuckle, and say,
"You're a brave man, Mr. Sanders. Too bad I have to kill you-" Suddenly, he heard another shot-but it didn't come from the intruder. The inturder fell dead, right in front of Greg, who winced as the body fell on his feet. He moved backwards, and heard a familiar voice shout,
"Greg! Are you alright?" It was Warrick. He was running towards him, looking scared. Greg took another deep breath as he slowly stood up.
"I...I was shot in the arm." He said, blinking back tears of pain. Warrick glanced at his right arm, and stated,
"Come with me. We're going to the hospital. We'll get your arm fixed up, and then I'll have to get a statement from you." Greg nodded. He gestured at the guy, and said,
"Do you think that he was the killer? He said that he was going to kill me before you shot him." Warrick froze, then said calmly...though it sounded forced,
"He might've been the killer, Greg. Come on, let's get out of here." With Warrick's help, the two managed to make it out of the house, and Greg spotted the two cops outside by Warrick's Tahoe.
"The intruder came back. I need you two to call Gil Grissom and Catherine Willows to the scene." Warrick shouted at them. "Tell them that I'm taking Greg to the hospital." One of the cops nodded, and got into the car to radio for back-up. Warrick looked at Greg.
"You okay?" He asked, concerned. Greg nodded, looking back at the house.
"I'm fine." Greg said, though he felt as though his arm was screaming at him. As the two left in the Tahoe towards the hospital, Greg's last thought before he drifted off to sleep was that the intruder had come back for something at the scene. And that he needed to find out what it was before it was lost in the process.
