Sara was slightly disappointed that their day off would now be occupied, but she hoped that the sooner things were investigated the sooner a solution would arise.
Shift seemed to drag by as they worked a B&E and a double homicide, not much on the exciting side. Sara and Greg had been stuck with the B&E, while everyone else was at a casino working the double homicide. The B&E was a simple open and shut case. Some teenager needed money and decided to break into a local convenience store, it was obvious from the beginning he was a rookie at this. His prints were everywhere, he didn't even know the video cameras were watching him the whole time, plus, he wasn't even smart enough to try and leave the scene once the cops were called. Let's just say it wasn't much of a case to go down in history.
The clock ticked slowly by as it finally read that shift was over. As she was in her car driving home (her car had been fixed within a day of the accident), Grissom called to say that he would be putting in some overtime for the double homicide. Apparently the killer was the opposite of the rookie who had robbed the convenience store, obviously, he had killed before.
"Well, it'll be better to stay and work on this case now then have to go in tonight and miss our paranormal rendezvous," he said to her.
"Okay... Do you have any idea when you'll be finished?" Sara asked, pulling into the driveway of the townhouse and shutting the engine off.
"Maybe in two hours. I'm gong to sort through some of this evidence and start to get some things processed and I'll try to get home right after that," he said as he entered the layout room only to be greeted by boxes of evidence. "Make that three."
"I'll let you get back to work then. I'll talk to you later." Sara said.
"Okay. I'll see you soon. Bye," Grissom said, ending the call.
Sara exited the car and headed to the front door. As she made her way up the walkway something caught her eye. She turned her head to get a better view of the sidewalk, and the woman standing there. The woman was staring at the townhouse but yet her facial expression showed her to be deep in thought, not really seeing what her eyes fell upon.
Sara walked slowly over to her.
"Miss, can I help you?" she asked, seeing if maybe the woman was lost and needed directions. A chill ran up her back as she watched the older woman, waiting for her to respond. Something was strangely familiar about her, but Sara was sure she had never met her before. Dressed in grey, the woman's skin seemed to match the color of the fabric and her eyes were dull and lifeless, if there wasn't just the bit of color there they would've been empty.
The woman shook her head no, finally exiting her trance and meeting Sara's gaze, but she looked away quickly. The woman turned on her heel and headed in the other direction down the sidewalk. Sara thought it strange that she didn't say anything more, not like she said much to begin with. She brushed it off as odd and headed back to her task of unlocking the front door.
She paused before entering the house, looking back over to the direction the lady was headed. She scanned the sidewalk and the street for her. She hadn't been walking fast, there was no way she had already turned the corner. She turned to click the lock button for the car and her gaze turned that way too, only to have her jump in surprise- and mostly fear- to see the woman now watching her from the driveway. Placing a hand over her rapidly beating heart, she closed her eyes for a moment to calm herself by repeating it's just a lady who needs directions. Except when she opened her eyes, the lady was gone. Now that was not normal. Sara looked quickly to her left and right and -relieved she didn't see her- rushed into the house, making sure to lock the door once she was inside.
