Revenge

Scene Three: Too Many Questions

"Mr. Caine!" Rosita called to Horatio as she got off the elevator.

Horatio turned around. "Rosita… why aren't you in school?"

"I was in the hospital getting some surgery done. Is it true? Did they really escape from prison?"

"I'm afraid so."

"So they'll be coming after Joe and me? What are we going to do, Mr. Caine?"

Horatio saw how afraid she was. Her dark brown eyes wide with fear. Her short black hair was hidden under a baseball cap. She looked like she was trying to hide. The elevator doors opened and Joe ran out.

"Why don't I put an officer to keep an eye on you two until they're caught?" Horatio asked.

Joe's blue eyes were just like Rosita's. "I don't think that'll work. They want to kill us. Nothing will stop them!"

"Do we even know if they're still in Miami? They could have left." Rosita said. Not likely.

Calleigh walked over to them worried. "Horatio… have you seen Ryan?"

Horatio knew Ryan pretty well. He was always on time. If he was going to be late he would have called. He was now half an hour late. Something was not right.

"No, I haven't."

"He hasn't called and he's not here. No one's seen or heard from him since last night."

"They've already got him. They'll come after us next." Rosita's voice was shaky.

Calleigh looked even more worried. "You mean the people who broke out of prison?"

Martha sat next to Steve in the large gray room. On the ground a few feet away from them was the unconscious CSI. He laid on his chest, hand tied behind him. He had been out for hours.

"You sure he's alive, honey?" Martha asked.

"He should be," Steve grunted before chuckling, "If he's not, oh well! No loss there."

Martha chuckled too. "Where did Josh go?"

"To get your lovely ex-husband. Geek boy's taking too long to wake up. We need to find those annoying two. Ex-husband seems like the perfect candidate who knows where they are."

"But, honey, he's away. How do you plan on getting him?"

"He's not out of town. He was with the kid. That was the family matter."

Martha smirked. It'd be so great if Diego was here. Then the four of them could burn in hell together.

Steve noticed the smirk. He smiled. "What's that look for?"

"Can we make them suffer?"

"You want to help?"

"I'd love to. I want to hear them beg for me to stop. I want to see them take their last breath."

Steve kissed her cheek. "That's why I love you, babe."

Diego rushed into the front doors of Sanchez INC. He took the elevator to the fifteenth floor. Something felt something. He didn't like the feeling. Once he stepped off the elevator, he realized that the feeling was fear. It began to overwhelm him. He quickened his pace down the reception room.

He didn't see his normal secretary Carrie sitting at her desk. It was lunch time but someone should be taking over till she came back. The moment he got inside his office, he locked the door. Taking a deep breath he sat down in the large black leather chair.

"Calm down. Nothing's happening. Rosita's fine and so are you. Martha and those guys wouldn't be able to get past security." Diego said out loud, closing his eyes.

"You sure about that?" someone said.

Diego's eyes snapped open. Now that he thought about it, he didn't remember seeing the guards in the main lobby… or anywhere. He bolted to his feet and spun around. Josh stood behind his chair. He twirled a crowbar in his hand.

"What do you want?" Diego's voice was full of bravado.

"You to come with me. We want to have s few words with you." Josh smirked.

Diego headed for the door. Josh was too fast. He jumped onto the desk and tackled Diego. With the crowbar Josh repeatedly hit him in the head until he stopped moving.
