Russell sat behind his desk doing paperwork when his phone rang, "Are you positive?" After confirmation, and the call had ended he let out a sigh. He then prceeded to call the rest of the team.
Greg answered the phone with a very sleepy, groggy voice. He was talking to Russell but his voice began to get louder and louder, once he awoke more. All of a sudden out of nowhere a females hand reached out under the blanket putting her hand over his mouth to quiet him. Greg looked over towards the female and smiled at her as he removed her hand. "Yes boss, I'm listening. I'll be right in."
After Russell had finished his phone call with Greg, he walked out of his office, seeing Sara approaching. "I just got your urgent message, what's this all about?"
"Maria Valar. You know the name?"
Sara gave him a weird look but answered anyways. "Not personally, but I know the story. They called her the broken heart killer. She killed 3 men who hurt her over a course of 5 years before she was finally caught. It was Catherine's first big kiss actually. Her and Gil worked it together. She was convicted over 20 years ago. Why the sudden interest in her?"
"Day shift found a body this morning. Florian Anderson. The MO matches that of Maria. Ecklie is the one that remembers it. Days are shorthanded and behind on other cases so I volunteered to take it off thier hands. They are suppose to be bringing all the evidence to us as soon as they can. Till then maybe you can check into Florian's background and see what kind of life he lead."
"You got it boss" Sara said as she walked away.
Greg walked back into the bedroom completely dressed after his shower. He quietly climbed onto the bed halfway beside and halfway atop her. "I gotta go into work early, I'll call you." She lets out a groan from underneath the pillow as Greg gently sends kisses up her shoulder to her cheek and leaves.
After putting his jacket and keys in his locker, he starts to walk to Russell's office but instead finds him and Sara in the hallway outside his office. "Hey, I just ran into Brass. Is it true? A case that matches one from 20 years ago?"
Russell looked at him. "Yes. The MO matches and everything. I tried to call Morgan but I got no answer. She comes back from her week long vacation tonight so we can catch her up on everything then. Considering the importance of this case and the factor that were down two CSI's, I called in a bit of help."
Greg looked between Russell and Sara when he saw two familiar faces walking towards their direction. Grissom? Catherine? What are you two doing here?"
Gil squuezed Cath's hand that he had been holding since before they walked up to them. Catherine smiled at the younger CSI, "We are your help. We worked the original case, so we were already in town for a convention when I received the call from Russell. Gil and I talked about it, and decided after everything that has been going on here you guys could use our assistance."
As Greg was standing there talking and catching up with both of his mentors, all Sara could do was look at them completely lost in thought. She knew they had gotten together about a year ago, but actually seeing them together was different. What she had shared with Gil was special. It's not something you can just get over in one day. But deep down she had to admit he looked happy. And that made her happy. They had both made their amends and moved on. He was now engaged to Catherine, and she in a very committed relationship with Nick. She never understood why she felt so close to him, but now she knows it was more then that. She loves him. Deep down she knew there was always something more then friendship there. It was just a matter of finally acting on those feelings. Even with him living in San Diego, they still manage to make it work.
After many moments of being lost in all those thoughts she was finally ripped out of them when she heard Russell saying her name. "I'm sorry, what were you saying?"
"I said did days get you all the evidence from that crime scene. "
"Oh yea. It's all layed out and separated."
"Great, lets get started then." Russell said as they all followed him into the layout room.
Thank you all for reading. Chapter 2 up as soon as it's written.
