……………………………….
A built man walked through the crime lab and straight into Mac's office which held the team if CSIs.
"Mac." he greeted.
"Markus." Mac said sternly. "Everyone, this is Special Agent Markus De Faro. He has been tracking Jim for a week now."
Markus nodded.
"As I told Mac on the phone, I have lost Jim…but I know where he has been staying, which could help us." Markus informed everyone.
"Stella, I think now is the time you tell everyone about what Jim did to Lindsay and her family." Mac told her.
Stella nodded, knowing exactly how everyone was going to react.
………………………………………
"That son of a bitch! How could he do that to her?" Danny shouted in a pissed off fluster as he rubbed his face.
"He is scum." Flack pointed out.
"When we find him I'm going to kill him! I'm going to make him hurt so much!" Danny said as he punched the wall.
"Danny, we need to concentrate on finding Lindsay." Stella said.
Danny nodded.
"Let's get to Jim's apartment." De Faro said.
………………………………………………………..
Mac, Markus, Stella, Flack, Hawkes and Danny all walked into Jim's apartment. It was old and dusty and looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a while. Markus walked around and saw pictures of Lindsay.
"Looks like Jim has had Lindsay under surveillance for a while."
"Hey guys, look at this. It's a prescription receipt to a pharmacy down the road." Hawkes informed everyone.
"Okay, Danny, Flack and Stella, you go to the chemist. We'll look around for more and meet you at the lab." Mac told everyone.
……………………………………………
Danny, Flack and Stella walked into the pharmacy, where only a few people stood about.
"Hey, do you have a guy named Frank who works here?" Stella asked.
"Yes. Can I ask why you want to know?" asked the guy at the front desk.
"He filled out this prescription for a suspect of ours." Flack said, holding up his badge.
"Okay sure, I'll go get him."
A few minutes later a small man appeared from the back of the store.
"How can I help you officers?" Frank asked.
"Did you fill out this prescription?" Danny asked holding the piece of paper up.
"Yes, it's for Ambien" Frank said.
"What is Ambien and what does it do?" Flack asked.
"Ambien is a sedative, also called a hypnotic. It's used to treat people with insomnia. You normally take with a full glass of water. If you don't get a full seven to eight hours sleep after taking it, the person doing so can get amnesia and forget what happened before she took it." Frank explained.
"How did you know it was a she who was taking it?" Danny asked.
"The man said his niece had trouble sleeping and needed help. He sounded sincere."
"They always do." Stella said.
"Shouldn't I have given him the prescription?" Frank asked.
"He's a killer. So no." Danny said with a blank look on his face.
"Oh…is there any way I could help you?" Frank insisted.
"Did he say if he was going anywhere with her?" Flack asked.
"Yeah… a café…I think its called Michelle's. It's down the road."
"Lindsay and I walked near there." Stella said. "Sir, would you mind coming with us?"
"Oh yes, I'll come and help you." Frank said as they left the pharmacy.
…………………………………………………
They all walked down to the café and looked through the window but didn't see Lindsay and Jim.
Flack walked in.
"Excuse me miss." Flack asked, showing his badge. "We're looking for two of your customers. An older male and a young female. She has shoulder length brown hair and brown eyes."
"Oh yeah, she was sick." The waitress said, "She collapsed and he said that she was sick and had to take these drugs that would make her fall asleep a lot."
"Did you see what way they went or what car they were getting into?" Danny asked.
"Oh, um, no." the waitress informed them.
"Helpful. Can we see your surveillance tapes?" Stella asked.
"Yeah, I suppose so. Go through there and ask Bobby." the waitress directed.
They all nodded as they walked through.
They rewound the tape and found where Lindsay went into the bathroom and Jim was putting something in her drink.
"Frank. What happens when you crush Ambien?" Stella asked.
"Too much of the drug is released at once, it works quicker but can be dangerous."
"We need to get to the lab." Danny said as he got up and walked out the café.
……………………………………………
"Did you guys find anything?" Stella asked.
"No, not much. You?" Markus said.
"Jim drugged Lindsay to take her with him. Then nothing. These surveillance tapes didn't show which way he took her." Danny explained.
"We will find her, Danny." Mac said. "Wait a sec."
"What is it, Mac?" Stella asked.
"We have a message here from an unknown source." Mac informed everyone as he opened it.
Hello everyone…Danny.
You want to see Lindsay click here
JIM
Mac clicked on the line and opened a window which held a video.
In the video Lindsay was lying on a bed knocked out to the world as Jim walked in. Jim went over and sat next to Lindsay he took her had and started to softly rub her skin.
"It's so soft isn't it, Danny?" Jim said with a smile on his face. He then kissed her hand "She looks a lot like her aunt." Jim then looked straight at the camera.
"Your time is running out…Tick, tock, tick, tock."
"Goodbye."
Then the video was over…
