Sorry about the spacing last chapter. My computer is acting weird so hopefully it will be better this chapter. Thanks so much for the good reviews.
I'm not sure if I'll put a pairing in this story, but definitely in the next. So please don't stop reading and leaving reviews!
Chapter 2: The Find
The next afternoon, Catherine was in the locker room before her shift. She took out her equipment and headed out to the break room. She walked into the room and, to her surprise, found it empty. Sara was always first to work no matter what, but she didn't think about it long. She settled on the couch and did some paperwork. It was not long before she heard the voices of her colleagues Nick and Warrick coming down the hall. They walked in talking about a hokey game from the night before. Nick looked at Catherine.
"Where's Catherine?" he asked.
"I don't know," she replied, "but maybe Grissom does. I need to talk to him anyway." She got up and left the boys continuing their conversation. It wasn't long before she reached his office. Catherine walked in and found him rustling through his desk. "Hey Gris, do you know where Sara is?"
"No, she's not here?"
"Not that I know of."
"Ok, I'll call and see if she's home. Go tell the guys I'll be there in a minute to hand out assignments." Catherine turned to leave. "Oh, and Greg is not going to be here, still sick." Catherine nodded and left. She entered the break room and relayed Grissom's news to Nick and Warrick.
A few minutes later Grissom walked into the break room.
"Ok, nothing has come in yet and until it does, Nick and Warrick, finish some paperwork. Catherine, go find Sara, I can't get a hold of her." He turned and left.
"Great, paperwork! A CSI's dream!" Nick left the room followed by Warrick and Catherine. She headed out to parking lot and got into black Tahoe. She had an easy time finding Sara's townhouse. She pulled up to the side of the road and got out. She walked up to the door.
"Sara, it's Catherine." She banged on the door. "Sara?" She waited a moment with no answer. Catherine took out her cell to call Grissom. She looked out towards the street and something caught her eye. She walked over. "Oh my god. Sara."
She called Grissom.
Grissom was back at his office. He was finishing a report when his cell phone rang.
He answered it. "Grissom"
"It's Catherine. I'm at Sara's. I think you should come down here with your kit. You may want to bring Nick and Warrick too."
"Why, what's wrong?"
"I just found blood all over the curb in front of her house. You need to get down here now!"
"We are on our way." Grissom gathered his equipment and went to find Nick and Warrick. He found them in the layout room. "Guys get your stuff. I'll meet you in the parking lot." He left them too quickly to answer the question Nick didn't even ask yet. Grissom went back to his office to call Brass about what happened. "
"Brass, Catherine's found us a crime scene."
"Where?"
"At Sara's house, she's missing. The guys and I are going to get this."
"But you can't! Anything you and the team touch will be tainted and will never stand up in court. You are too emotionally involved!"
"There is no way I am letting another team take this. I'll need you to find us temps for the shift. I'll call you later." Grissom didn't give Brass time to protest. He just hung up the phone and went out to the parking lot.
"Are you going to tell us what is going on?" asked Warrick
"Sara's in trouble and we have got a crime scene to process."
They got into the remaining Tahoe. Before they knew it, they were diving into a crime that would change their lives.
