Chapter Twenty five The final showdown

Before long I again was awakened by Heather's evil voice.

"So I see you have managed to get your feet free." "Well don't worry it will all end soon Sara." "Ah I see your water has broken also what a wonderful way to finish it off." "I guess I won't have to perform a c-section after all nature has a way of doing it better itself." Heather replied.

I only hoped that she didn't find the cell phone I had purposely tried to hide it under my feet so that Grissom could somehow find me in this awful place. I only hoped he was on his way because if he didn't get there soon my life would surely come to an end.

All of a sudden I heard sirens and I saw flashing blue and red lights. Thank God Grissom had managed to find me after all.

"You little witch how did you manage this? Heather yelled at me. "That's it Sara you are done if you think he will ever see you alive again then you are wrong!!

Before I knew it she grabbed my hair and yanked the rope off of my burned wrists.

"GET UP NOW!! She screamed.

"I can't I am in too much pain! I whined

"FINE IF YOU WON'T GET UP THEN I WILL JUST DRAG YOU!

Without even thinking she grabbed me by my hair and started dragging me towards the ocean. I screamed in pain and I tried to drag me body so that she couldn't move me as easily. If I could give Grissom just a little more time I am sure that he will find me.

Just then I heard the most wonderful sound in the world it was Grissom he had come to save me.

"Heather drop her now or I will have to shoot! He replied coldly.

"No chance in hell Gil, I would rather die than let your little bitch go!" She said.

"Heather since when did life get this bad?"

"Since you left me Gil, and took away everything! You promised to marry me and love me forever what a lie!"

"Heather I have always loved Sara, I am sorry that things happened the way they did but I have a family now and a future." "You can have that too Heather just let her go please he pleaded."

"No way Gil that's it she is gone!"

"No Heather put the gun down come one lets talk about this!"

Before I knew what was happening I heard the dreaded pop again and this time I felt it burn right in my chest. That was it the end I could no longer hope to live I knew in that moment I was done for. I held on just long enough to see Grissom yell "NO" at Heather and then he shot her one shot right to the head and she fell.

Time seemed like it was whirling in slow motion Grissom Picked me up and held me close. He ran to the ambulance carrying me in tow. I don't know how I was still alive but I was. Maybe it was love all of the love that I had inside of me was fighting to live for him and my children. I didn't want to die not yet I wanted to stay right where I was warm and comfortable in his arms forever.

I awoke sometime later I was sitting in a hospital room covered in bandages and hooked up to machines. I had an evil tube shoved down my throat so I couldn't talk. I could hear the slow beat of the heart monitor and in the back ground I could hear someone snoring. I looked to my right and there sitting next to me on a chair was Grissom. His salt and pepper curls were tousled just like a little boy he looked so handsome and peaceful as he slept. I couldn't help but just watch and wait in the quiet peacefulness of the evening.

Then my mind remembered that I had indeed been pregnant that is when I started to panic I felt my stomach and it felt flat my balloon was gone. Were the babies okay? Did they die or did they somehow survive this horrible nightmare? As I listened I looked to my left and there next to my bed were not one but two cribs each held a perfect tiny little infant one had a baby wrapped in blue and the other held an infant wrapped in pink. I had never been so happy to see a baby in my entire life. A girl and a boy! I couldn't believe my eyes had God really granted me this much of a miracle after such a horrible storm?

I looked at the baby wrapped in blue and under his little blue cap were dark brown locks just like his big brother his tiny eyes were shut and he was sleeping peacefully I watched as his little chest rose and fell peacefully. I was trying hard to think of a name for the tiny bundle I decided on the name Gavin Michael Grissom. It was a strong name he would have to have a strong name after surviving like he did.

Then my eye turned to the little girl wrapped up in pink with a pink bow on her head. Again she also had dark curly locks and she looked just like her big sister Maddy it was hard to believe that it had been that long since Max and Maddy had come into my world. I decided to name her Gracelynn Marie Grissom.

She was full of Grace and love. She was awake and she had blue eyes just like her Daddy she turned and looked at me with her big bright eyes and I couldn't have felt more like I was in heaven then at that very moment. Watching the miracle of life truly is the greatest blessing that I Sara Sidle have ever witnessed
