I am a huge fan of CSI and i am writing this story as if there was another member of the group. There will be more in the description. I hope you enjoy it.
Her name was Katie Grissom, yes same last name as Gill Grissom, why you ask? Because she is his niece. She came to Vegas to help them out after Holly Gribbs was shot and killed. Her life growing up wasn't easy. Her father, Grissom's brother, was an abusive drunk who loved to smack her and her mom around until one day when Katie who was 16 at the time, was waiting for her parents to pick her up from an after school event, she waited for a couple hours when finally she saw a car pull up, but it wasnt her parents, it was her uncle Grissom. He gets out of the car and walks over to her.
"Uncle Grissom what are you doing hre? I thought my parents were coming to pick me up" She said as she walked towards him. He stopped in frontof her and placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Katie i have something to tell you, Im so sorry but there was an accident" He said with a sad look in his eyes, "Your parents are dead sweetie, Im so sorry"
Katie was in shock, tears were starting to come into her eyes as Grissom pulled her into a hug. She didnt know what to think. On the drive to her house to get some things to stay at her uncles house she couldnt help but go over her emoitions in her head. She was saddened by the fact that her mom was gone but was happy that her dad was dead. Did that make her a horrible person? Was it wrong for her to feel that way? Her head was so mixed with thoughts she didnt know what to do.
Years later after Grissom fully became her legal guardian her life kept spiraling out of control. She turned into a bit of a rebel. Always skipping class, going to parties and doing ecstasy and smoking pot, getting into trouble at her school. Grissom didnt know what to do, he knew it had something to do wit her grieving over the death of her parents. He tried talking to her which just endd up with Katie getting mad and storming out. It wasnt until Katie was 17 and she finally snapped back into reality when her life was put in danger. She was getting bored of the same old high school parties so she decided to go visit the college campus and sneak into one of th frat house parties. She was drinking, dancing, flirting with older guys, one in particular. After he brought her a refill on her drink they went upstairs to his room where she started to feel really weird, turns out he had drugged her and was planning on taking advantage. She fought him off and was starting to get to the stairway when the drugs started to take hold. Not being able to keep her balance anymore he lost control and fell down the stairs.
She woke up in the hospital the next day to see Grissom sitting next to her bed asleep. She tried to sit up but her body hurt so bad she couldnt. She woke Grissom up and ask what happened, after he told what happened and that he was extremely terrified when he got the call Kati looked at him with sorrow and said "I promis I will turn my life around. I can do it uncle just give me another chance." She started getting tears in her eyes when Grissom hugged her.
"One more chance. Prove yourself."
Katie graduated after some really hard work and long hours. She went to college at CalTech to study criminalistics just like Grissom. Her life had turned around for the better, she still stayed in contact with Grissom but he was usually to busy sometime to talk to her. Which she understood she had her own life to take care of. Until one day when she got a job offer, from Grissom.
