AN: I've changed the rating because I'm not sure if the rating was correct from the start. I might make things a bit more like a T story. I think.

Sorry for the long update!

Milton smirked. He had Mac exactly where he wanted him. For now at least. Though he had no intensions on killing Mac at the moment. He wanted Mac to make things right first.

"It's such a shame that I have to kidnap two people to make you see the truth." Milton smirked, "To make you find out what you and Dr. Hawkes did wrong ten years ago."

"You've recently been released from prison haven't you?" Mac asked.

"Actually, I've been out for quite a while. It took some time to plan this." Milton said, "Do you remember me Dt. Taylor?"

"I'm Chief Taylor now." Mac said.

"I know. But you weren't when you investigated my case. And Dr. Hawkes wasn't a CSI back then."

"I've handled a lot of cases."

"That's not an excuse! You'll probably remember me once you re-open the case." Milton said, "Here's a hint. It's a family murder. Sister killed by brother."

"Why not do this in a legal way?" Mac asked.

"And who would help an ex-con like me?" Milton asked, "No one would even bother to listen to me."

"What are you doing here now?" Mac asked.

"Actually I was looking for the boy. But I'll let him slip this time. You'll be hearing from me Dt." Milton said and backed away.

Mac waited until Milton was out of sight before he called it in and asked for assistant. Maybe Milton would be arrested as he fled. Mac walked towards some cars and bent down to Nicholas's eye level.

"That's him." Nicholas sobbed, "The bad man."

"I know Nicholas. He's not going to hurt you. You'll stay with me and Stella." Mac said and lifted Nicholas up in his arms.

Nicholas sobbed and Mac did his best to comfort the young boy. As a few officers arrived they started to search through the area for Milton. Mac put Nicholas in the backseat of his car and then drove towards the safe house that he and Stella had to live in. As they stopped outside the house, or rather apartment, Stella opened the door and came to greet her husband and Nicholas.

"Hi Nicholas." Stella smiled, "Are you hungry?"

Nicholas nodded and grabbed Stella's hand. Mac followed them inside the house. Stella had already made some lunch for herself, Mac and Nicholas. When Nicholas finished eating he went to the second bedroom to take a nap, since the poor guy was exhausted after all that had happened.

"I couldn't remember his face Stella." Mac sighed.

"It's been ten years Mac. I've bumped into witnessed from certain cases that I haven't remembered either." Stella said.

"This guy was convicted."

"It's still a long time ago. I don't think you and Sheldon did anything wrong back then, but maybe he was innocent." Stella said, "Maybe the evidence wasn't in his favour."

"It can't have been. He would never have been charged if the evidence didn't point towards him." Mac sighed and rubbed his eyes, "I have to get to the lab. Remember to rest."

"I know what to do Mac." Stella said and gave Mac a soft kiss, "I love you."

"I love you too." Mac said and stood up to leave.

As Mac drove towards the lab, his phone rang and the number was unknown. He frowned and got a gut feeling that it was the kidnapper.

"Taylor."

"Taylor, I'm disappointed in you. First you take the time to have lunch before you actually go to the lab." Milton said.

"The lunch was over in fifteen minutes and yes, I actually took the time to do that." Mac growled.

"I wonder how your pregnant wife is doing. Maybe I should pay her a visit." Milton smirked.

"You stay away from her!"

"I know where your safe house is. I can easily kill her and take your unborn children." Milton said.

Mac growled and hung up. He called Don and told him to move Stella and Nicholas to a knew location and this time, only Don and Mac were supposed to know where the new safe house was.

Mac knew that the kidnapper had to be disguising himself to be able to know so much about Mac's life. He could have easily waited outside the building for Mac, but he must have been inside the building to know that Stella was there. He couldn't have seen her exit the apartment if he hadn't been inside. Or maybe he had followed them before. Mac growled as he arrived at the lab.

15:30

Jackie and Sheldon froze as the hotel door opened and someone came closer to the bathroom. Milton opened the bathroom door and smirked at Jackie and Sheldon.

"You're lucky. Your son was with Dt. Taylor." Milton smirked, "I just gave Taylor a warning. They're both safe… for now."

"Let us go. You got Taylor's attention. He will investigate the case. Now you don't need us." Sheldon said.

"Yes I do! He needs to stay focused on the case. And I want to stay free. As long as I have you here, he won't touch me." Milton said, "Now, why don't you strip for me, Jackie is it?"

Jackie nodded. Milton cut her hands loose and pushed her out of the bathroom. Sheldon yelled for him to stay away from Jackie.

"So Jackie, how good is Sheldon in bed?" Milton asked.

"Better than anyone else." Jackie growled.

"How can you say that without even trying to fuck with me?" Milton asked and unbuckled his belt.

"Because you talk a lot of shit and you have a big ego. That means your dick is small." Jackie smirked evilly.

Milton laughed and walked towards Jackie with his belt in his hands. Jackie backed away. She soon backed up against a wall and Milton smirked evilly.

"Come on, what's the big deal? It's not like you're married to Hawkes." Milton said.

"Go to hell!" Jackie growled and tried to fight off Milton as he attacked her.

Milton threw Jackie towards the bed and ripped her clothes off. Jackie kicked and screamed.

"Come on, it'll be good!" Milton laughed and squeezed Jackie's breasts.

He licked her belly and Jackie tried to kick and bite him. Inside the bathroom, Sheldon tried to pull the ropes off his hands. He couldn't stand hearing Jackie screaming and he knew what Milton was trying to do.

"Leave her alone!" Sheldon yelled.

Milton ignored Sheldon and hit Jackie in the face three times. Jackie's vision got blurry and she almost blacked out. Milton touched her body and Jackie weakly tried to fight him off.

"Please don't." Jackie cried.

"You'll be saying please more soon." Milton smiled and took his pants off.

Inside the bathroom, Sheldon almost managed to pull the pipe lose and he grinned.

"I'll fucking kill you!" Sheldon yelled and pulled some more.

The door opened and Milton walked in, naked and hard, he hit Sheldon in the head with a frying pan and Sheldon was knocked out.

"Finally some peace and quiet." Milton smirked and then felt the need for some drugs.

He had heroin with him and he took some before he turned his attention back to Jackie. He caressed her body and ignored her pleas and cries as he raped her.

16:15

The team was looking through old case files that involved sibling-murders. Mac was trying to concentrate on reading but his mind kept going to Stella and Nicholas. Don had moved Stella and Nicholas to an apartment closer to his own place. Nobody except Mac and Don knew where it was. It was better that way. All Danny and the rest of the team knew was Stella had been moved, but not to where.

"I found something." Kim said and showed Mac a file.

"This is the guy." Mac said, "I know he looks ten years younger, but this is him."

Mac showed them the picture in the file of Milton Haynes. Convicted for murdering his sister and her husband.

"His sister Maggie was stabbed to death by Milton. Milton also murdered her husband. Supposedly because the husband beat his sister and he was high on heroin at the time. He didn't realize he had killed his sister as well. Two witness placed him outside the apartment around the time of the murder. They said they recognized his clothes." Mac said.

"You were in charge of the investigation." Danny said, "And Sheldon was the coroner."

"Yes, Sheldon said the murder weapon was a butcher knife that was later found in Milton's apartment." Mac said, "He had the same clothes as the murdered and the murder weapon. He was high when we arrested him. He denied killing his sister and her husband, but with two witness putting him on the scene and previous charges for disturbance, there was no doubt that he was the one." Mac sighed, "How could I be so wrong?"

"Mac, you didn't have the same technology back then that we today. Now we can make this right." Danny said.

"But it has nothing to do with technology. If we had tested the same things today we would have gotten the same results." Mac said.

"The clothes had blood on them?" Kim asked.

"Yeah, from the victims. Milton claimed he didn't know how it had gotten there. He must have been framed." Mac sighed and shook his head, "We have to talk to the witnesses again."

"Yeah, because I think they're seriously wrong about who they saw that day." Danny said.

"I'll see if I can find out where they live now." Adam said and turned to face his computer.

Mac's phone rang and again it was an unknown number. He nodded for Adam to trace the call.

"Taylor."

"Dt. Taylor we talk again. I see you've started investigating." Milton smirked, "What have you found?"

"The case you wanted me to find Milton." Mac said, "You're Milton Haynes."

"Exactly! So what's your next step?"

"Well, we'll check all the evidence again." Mac said, "Milton, release Sheldon and Jackie now. You got what you wanted."

"I want justice! And I haven't gotten it yet. And I don't know if I want to go back to jail." Milton chuckled.

"I will make everything right. But I need you to release Sheldon and Jackie first." Mac said.

"Jackie was a good fuck. A little life-less, but that could be because I beat her up first." Milton smirked.

"You what?! What have you done to her?" Mac asked.

"I fucked that bitch. It was good. And you won't be able to check for DNA. I used a condom Dt."

"You release them right now you son of a bitch!" Mac growled.

"No. Not until you've gotten a little further in your investigation. I will enjoy her company until then." Milton laughed and hung up.

Mac cursed and ran a hand through his hair. Adam shook his head sadly at Mac. Milton's phone signal was bouncing between different places in NY city.

"He's beaten and raped Jackie." Mac sighed.

"Shit." Danny sighed, "Alright, Adam have you found the witnesses?"

"Right here." Adam said and gave Danny a note with the addresses.

"I'm going to talk to these two and I'm going to get the truth out of them even if it means making some threats." Danny said.

"Danny, don't do anything stupid." Kim said.

"I'm tired of Milton's games. The truth is going to come out and we can get Jackie and Sheldon back." Danny said and left.

-I-

16:30

Sheldon opened his eyes and saw Milton sitting on the edge of the bathtub, smoking. Sheldon coughed and groaned as he shifted his body.

"What did you do to her?" Sheldon asked.

"I fucked her. She was good, I can see why you like her." Milton said, "I might do it again, but I'm taking a break for now."

"You son of a bitch. Leave her alone." Sheldon said weakly.

"Taylor has started investigating my old case. He's going to make things right and when he does I will let the two of you go. But, if you don't behave Hawkes, I will kill you."

"Let Jackie go."

"No. She's my toy now. My slave." Milton smirked.

"Leave her alone." Sheldon said and coughed.

"Say that again and I will beat the crap out of you!" Milton growled and left the bathroom.

Jackie was still tied to the bed and she was only covered with the sheets. Milton smiled at her as she started to wake up. She cried as she realized what Milton had done.

"Please let me go." Jackie pleaded.

"Nah, I still like you." Milton said, "Jackie, I'll make you a deal. You let me fuck you and I will stay away from your son."

"Promise?"

"Of course." Milton smirked.

"Okay. Deal." Jackie sobbed.

She hated giving her body the monster in front of her, but she did it to keep her son safe. She would do anything for Nicholas. She just hoped that in time she would be able to see him again. Milton left the hotel room to get some food. Jackie felt weak but she still had to try and get lose. She started to pull at the ropes that bound her and managed to get one hand free. But then she had no strength left and she blacked out again.

When Milton came back twenty minutes later he saw that Jackie had one hand lose. He growled and slapped her across the face. Jackie woke up.

"Did you try to get lose?" Milton asked, "I own your body now!"

"Please don't kill me!" Jackie screamed as Milton started hitting and kicking her.

Jackie felt two of her ribs breaking and the pain from Milton's fists as they connected with her face and chest. When Milton was done, Jackie coughed and sobbed.

"Now I feel much better. Keep still or you won't be so lucky next time." Milton said and left Jackie alone to watch some TV.

-I-

17:00

The door to the apartment opened and Danny showed the woman his badge.

"I'm Dt. Messer from the crime lab, are you Mrs. Lena Fredrickson?"

"Yes."

"Can I come in?" Danny asked.

Lena opened the door wider and let Danny inside. Danny decided to get straight to the point of things.

"Ten years ago you witnessed in a case against Milton Haynes." Danny said, "Tell me what you saw that night?"

"I saw a man with a black hooded-shirt and jeans." Lena said, "He came out with blood on his clothes. Mr. Haynes always wore that outfit."

"But did you actually see Mr. Haynes's face?" Danny asked.

"No. But I didn't need to. The evidence against him was enough." Lena said, "He used to come by every night and cause fights with the husband. It was only a matter of time before he actually killed him. It's just a pity that he had to kill his own sister as well."

"Alright thank you." Danny said.

He left the apartment and sighed. He had already asked the second witness, Mr. Leopold Warner and he had said the same thing as Lena. They had both just assumed that Milton was the killer. But he couldn't blame them. When the evidence against Milton had been so strong, there hadn't been any doubt that he had done it.

Danny went back to the lab and watched some surveillance tapes with Adam. The team had to figure out how Milton knew what they were doing all the time.

"I can't see anyone that looks even similar to Milton." Adam said, "These are just tapes from the lab."

"He had to be in the lab to see us working." Danny sighed, "Where's Mac?"

"Testing the clothes and knife used in the murder. This is really eating him up. He thinks he's made a huge mistake." Adam said.

"He didn't. Not a mistake that no one else wouldn't have made too. Everyone made a mistake. The DA, the CSI, Sheldon, the judge and the jury. Everyone put the wrong person in jail." Danny sighed, "Whoa, who's that?"

Danny pointed at a man with sunglasses standing at a corner, just a few feet away from the lab the team had been in.

"That has to be him." Adam said and zoomed in, "Yeah, that's Milton Haynes."

"He wore a uniform. He disguises himself to blend in. Clever man." Danny said.

-I-

21:00

Mac rubbed his tired eyes as he drove to the new safe house. Don was in a car behind him and they had made sure that no one else was following them. Mac had found the same evidence as before. But also something new. The clothes hadn't been worn by Milton, because Milton's DNA wasn't on it, which would be expected if Milton wore the same clothes all the time. Mac wanted to go back to the apartment though, the old crime scene and process it again. Hopefully nobody lived there and most of it was untouched.

Mac growled as his phone rang again and he knew it was Milton.

"What?" Mac answered.

"Stella is a beautiful woman, Taylor." Milton smirked, "She's sleeping right now. Oh, the baby kicked."

Mac paled.

"Are you in the safe house?" He asked.

"Why do you call it a house when it's an apartment?" Milton asked.

"Leave my wife alone!"

"Why should I? She's so sexy. I should fuck her too." Milton laughed, "See you soon Dt."

Mac stomped on the gas. Milton was in the apartment!
