1Disclaimer: I don't own CSI: NY or Adam Ross. But believe me I would love too!

AN: So this is really my first time attempting to write Adam, I noticed there weren't a lot of stories about him and I wanted to try to change that. I love him in the show and wanted to try something new. I'm not a fan of Kendall ,so I've created an OC with a twist for him. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

Adam Ross stepped out of his blue Chrysler Crossfire, looking both ways more than once before attempting to cross the busy New York street. He pulled his coat tighter around himself, then set off to his favorite coffee shop, Alternative Fuel.

Stepping into the coffee shop, he was assaulted with delicious smells that stimulated his overly sensitive senses. Breathing in the warmth of the coffee shop, Adam walked up to the counter to order his usual large coffee, complemented with a half a bagel. The waitress behind the counter, named Holli, gave him a warm smile before getting started on his order.

All of the workers knew what Adam ordered, as he frequented the shop quite often. Coming in every morning, never changing his routine. Holli handed him his coffee and bagel before ringing up the two items. Adam placed the money on the counter and grabbed the coffee and bagel, heading out the door into the cold New York morning.

Sipping his coffee and taking bites of his bagel, Adam started the journey to his car. Passing by an alley he thought he heard something, but thought nothing of it. I mean, really, this is New York City. Until he heard it again, a distinct voice crying for help. Throwing his coffee and bagel into a nearby trash can, Adam went to investigate.

Pulling out his 9 mm, which he had gotten licensed for shortly after the warehouse incident, he made his way down the alley. The noise kept getting louder and louder, Adam could make out two voices, a male voice was roughly telling a female voice to shut up, among other explicit things.

Rounding the corner Adam yelled, "NYPD" with his gun drawn. The male quickly got up running down the alley and hopping over a 20 foot chain-link fence. Knowing that he wouldn't be able to catch him, Adam turned his attention to the young woman. He pulled his phone out and called 911, reporting the incident quickly and then called Mac to tell him that he would be late for work. Mac told him that he would come down with Stella to process the scene and victim.

Adam finally focused in on the victim of the crime. Her clothes were torn and ragged and her face, arms, legs and stomach were covered in bruises. He knelt down next to her and checked for a pulse, relieved to find one. Adam gently shook her, hoping to wake her up. Much to his relief he saw her eyes flicker open and then in an instant she was back into fight mode. Arms flailing, legs kicking, she nailed Adam in the jaw before he realized what was happening.

Quickly restraining her, he started talking to her, "Hey, I'm here to help you. I'm not going to hurt you. He's gone. You're safe now. Everything's okay." She began to calm down and looked at Adam before glancing down at her battered body. He let go of her and began talking, "I'm Adam Ross and I work with the New York Crime Lab. What's your name?"

"My name is Sapphire Taylor."

"Ok, Sapphire help is on the way. Just stay calm and we'll get you to a hospital in no time."

She nodded once and then her body went limp again, Adam tried shaking her again, but to no avail. He was about to call Mac again when he heard the sirens. Glancing down the alley, he saw Mac and Stella coming down with their kits along with 2 paramedics carrying a stretcher. Adam called out to them, beckoning them with his hand as if that would make them go faster.

The paramedics rushed around Adam and he stepped out of the way to give them room to work on her. Mac and Stella glanced briefly at the victim, before turning their attention to Adam. He explained everything he knew and what he saw. He glanced over Mac's shoulder to see the paramedics loading Sapphire onto a stretcher.

Turning around to face Mac and Stella again, Adam realized that he hadn't told them her name. He cleared his throat before speaking, "Hey umm...Mac. This is kinda weird, but the vic has the same last name as you. Her name's Sapphire."

At the mention of the name Sapphire, Mac took off at dead run down the alley, following the paramedics. He stopped beside the body and glanced down at the face, his own face registering shock before going deathly pale.

Adam and Stella looked at each other before taking off after Mac, calling out questions. Coming up next to the ambulance as they loaded Sapphire, Mac climbed in back, much to the chagrin of the paramedics. Flashing his badge to keep them quiet he turned back to Stella, "Stella you're in charge, call Danny or Hawkes to process. I am a conflict of interest."

"Mac, how do you know her. And why are you a conflict of interest?"

"She's my baby sister." And with that the ambulance doors slammed shut, leaving a stunned Adam and Stella standing in the street watching the sirens and lights fade into the New York traffic.

So I realize that there wasn't a whole lot of interaction with Adam and Sapphire, but I'm trying to get the background story written for y'all. So, let me know what you think...Good, Bad, Hate It, Love It? All reviews and criticism welcome. I want feedback please!

Thanks! iheartcsinewyork
