Chapter 34

SSB RESIDENCE/HQ

7:00 PM

"I'm going to pretend I didn't hear what you said earlier." Marsha finally breaks the two hour long silence.

"Thanks Marsha." Catherine smiled at her. Jenny skipped into the room. She did a quick fill in to the two as Jenny looked at a map of Vegas curiously. "She's a temporary agent."

"I'm stuck babysitting," Marsha groaned playfully. "So she's Agent Sanders?"

"No, Special Agent Willows. She's got my badge." She smiled. "I'm using my spare ID."

"You have two badges."

"IDs." Mike smirked. "She seems to misplace things. So when she's off duty I normally lock her badge up at home. She keeps a spare ID in her purse in case she leaves one at home or work."

"So giving a six year old her badge is smart?" Jon gave her a look.

"You still have my badge, Jenny?" The girl nodded pointing to the badge fastened to her belt on her side. Catherine looked at her and noticed she was still looking at the map. "Jenny?"

"My house." She pointed. Catherine grabbed a chair and placed her on it. Jenny put her finger on where she lives. The desert was right next to it. "Don't you mark these?"

"We can." Going to the table she grabbed some sticks and markers. Marking the house she waited.

"School." Again Jenny pointed at a place and again she marked it. "The lab," Catherine noticed it all was in reach for her. "And Liz's."

"Places you've been." Catherine noted. 'And me.' She thought to herself realizing the school was Butterfield Academy.

"And Grandpa Willows … or whatever his name is."

"You never said you saw him at Liz's."

"He was parked outside when I went up to her apartment." Catherine motioned to Marsha to call someone to pick up security tapes from there to analyze. "Another guy was with him and was driving."

"Hey, boss," Jon spoke looking at the map. He marked the desert crime scene. "Notice anything?"

"A star." She drew the lines and marked the first scene. "With Ecklie's house smack dab in the middle."

"Everything is like ten, fifteen miles apart or less." Marsha noted. "Randy's getting the tapes."

"The question is was this done on purpose."

"How could it have been?" Mike spoke. Catherine understood but contemplated reasons.

"Could have a mole." She suggested. "Maybe he is staying some place near one of these points."

"Did I solve it?" Jenny looked please with herself.

"Maybe," She helped Jenny down as Jon removed photos of the victims from the wall. Marsha began working on the map putting the victims in as well. Mike left to go make a couple calls. At eight the rest of the team joined them."

"Hi!" Jenny waved excitedly. Catherine introduced her then filled them in. Drake bent to the girl's height and gave her a box. "Mine?"

"Yeah." He smiled as she removed the charm bracelet with all her favorite things on it. "Here," he helped her put it on.

"Thanks Mike," Catherine spoke knowing the bracelet had a GPS locater in it. "Can it be removed?"

"Yes. I figured she could choose to keep it or take it out. After you return her to her dad her parents can decide."

"You know I wanted to do that to Lindsey." She picked up Jenny when she hugged her. "How's my favorite Agent?"

"Hungry." Jenny replied over the multiple 'Hey's and 'That's not cool.' She couldn't help but smile.

"Well we can't have hungry agents now can we." Mike smiled as he and Randy raised Wendy's bags. Smiling she let Jenny go eat.

"Did you know Dr. Grissom and Detective Brass both live outside our star?" Marsha spoke. Everyone looked at the map to see all the victims lived in the star. Even their FBI house had been in it. Grissom and Brass, though, lived on the other side of the lab. "Even Sue Ecklie was in the star."

"Which means his victims were specifically chosen." Her brow furrowed as she studied the map. "This wasn't a coincidence. He wanted his victims in the star. Both of theirs. Only Brass and Grissom didn't fit in. Now the question is – did he follow them as well?"

"The threats he sent targeted Grissom." Randy spoke. Everyone was silent trying to figure it out.

"It could be a sign." Jenny suggested shrugging her shoulders as they looked at her and her frosty covered mouth.

"Why do you think that?" Sophia asked raising an eyebrow.

"Cuz he told me if I wanted to find him to follow the star, duh." She rolled her eyes as if they were all stupid.

"Well let's follow it then." Catherine grabbed some color pencils.

"You're listening to a six year old?" Sophia looked surprised.

"She's six?" Was Catherine's response, which made her team laugh completely at Sophia's shocked and annoyed face. A couple seconds later she stepped back to show five shaded in sections on the map. From each point she had drawn two diagonal lines at the same angles until they combined with another point's line.

"Possible locations?" Mark asked intrigued.

"Archie's looking for that car." Vega spoke.

"When he gets it we'll probably put an APB out on it then look in those areas." O'Riley concluded. The detectives then left to go do their jobs or get some rest or whatever it was they had to go do.

"Did I help?" Jenny asked. "Is it going to help find them?"

"Yes, you helped." Catherine bent to her height. "This is a big lead. You want me to tell everyone or do you want to?"

"Can I?" Smiling Catherine took her hand as they went into the living room.

"What?" Sandra asked eyeing the two.

"I helped!" Was all Jenny said. Trying not to laugh Catherine took over.

"My partner," When she said that Jenny's jaw dropped forming a face of surprise. "Helped us to narrow our search to specific areas. She also helped lead us to a possible vehicle. It's not a lot but I will help."

"You're closer." Mia looked ready to cry. "That's all that matters."

"Mommy, she got me a charm bracelet." Jenny held up her wrist. Sandra glared at Catherine.

"You told her." She accused.

"Jenny why don't you go show Marsha it." After Jenny left Catherine nodded. "I had to, Sandra. I didn't want her to break a promise so I told her to get the letter. The bracelet has a GPS locator in it just in case. She's a possible target."

"Oh god," Sandra sank into a chair. "My baby."

"Marsha and Jon have strict orders to keep an eye on her. When I'm here I'm watching her. I'm doing everything I can to keep her safe."

"She trusts him though." Mia said. "Or did you tell her he's a bad guy?"

"I did but I believe she would approach him if she saw him again. Probably only to ask if he's bad." Catherine sighed. "She did help, Sandra, and will probably help a lot more."

"How?" Julie asked in disbelief. "The girls just a kid."

"And is very bright. This is just a mystery to her. It is to all of us but for her, a child, it's different. I'm solving it because it's my job. She on the other hand, it's like playing a game of detective."

"And?" Maria was confused.

"She's doing it to win, to be proud of herself and she sees things differently."

"Hey, boss," Marsha appeared. "Archie called. He found the vehicle and got a plate number. It's registered to Joseph Ecklie."

"Another Ecklie?" She smirked. "Now that's not right." Re-entering the room she pointed at Mark. "I want you to cross reference. Make a list of every twenty to twenty-five year old Joseph in Vegas. Get one of the detectives to help."

"What are you thinking?" Randy asked as Mark left.

"That he only changed the last name to hide his fake identity."

"A fake ID for a fake ID." Jon said. "Not trying to hide is he?"

"Such a party pooper." Drake smiled. Jenny giggled which made Catherine smile.

"Seriously, do you know how many names can pop up?" Randy looked at her.

"We eliminate those we know it can't be. Mark knows to do that. When we get the list we see what names we get. Map them and see what happens."

"And if it doesn't work?"

"We'll try something else."

"Maybe he lived there." Jenny tilted her head in thought.

A/N: I hope everyone enjoyed this chapter. Stay tuned for more. I believe we are much closer to the end now.
