Disclaimer: I don't own CSI or its characters!
OK guys, this is my first attempt at writing an actual CASE story. I am not an expert at forensics, so don't get upset if I mess something up. I hope you enjoy it! Please review good OR bad so I can get better!


She finished grading the last test in her pile and sighed. Rubbing her hand over her ever growing belly, she tried to push the negative thoughts away and remember why she loved her new life in Vegas. There she didn't have to face the stigma of having been left at the alter, pregnant. Even better, she didn't have to see her sister, who caused it. But the best part of being in Vegas was being far away from him. Until now, that is, she thought. That day she thought she had seen the man who was the real reason she'd left Georgia. Her former teacher. The man who had stalked and raped her four and a half years before. Deciding it hadn't really been him, she went to bed.
She woke up to someone placing a damp rag over her mouth and nose. Her attempts at fighting back were futile; they only ended in her being back slapped, causing her head to hit the headboard. She felt blood running down her neck and heard her attacker say Don't worry, you'll be safe with me, sweetheart, before she blacked out.


Catharine walked up to Sara, who was hunched over some paperwork. Hey, I just talked to Brass. They were following up on a missing person request and came across a crime scene. All the boys are out...wanna join me?
Do you even have to ask? With that, the two CSIs were in a Tahoe and on their way to the missing woman's apartment.
Brass was waiting at the door when the women arrived. The missing woman is Emma Monroe, 22 years old. She is a biology teacher at a local high school and she's pregnant. That struck a nerve with Catharine and Sara, making them that much more eager to get to work.
Catharine went to collect evidence from the bed, and Sara checked out the rest of the room.
Hey, Cath, I'd say there is a pretty good chance that she's alive.
What makes you say that? Catharine inquired.
Well, her closet and drawers have been almost emptied, and her toiletries are missing, too. This guy is looking to keep her for the long run.
Brass came into the room. I just spoke with her family. They are on their way from Georgia. Seems she just moved out here from there. And get this, the reason she moved is because the man that had stalked and raped her was released from prison.
I think we might have a suspect, Sara declared.
