Chapter 8: Along came a spider
A/N: Sorry it took me so long to get this up. Exams suck! The good news is that everything is about to come together in this story.
"Any luck yet?" Jordan asked Greg as the entered the lab. He saw Greg bent over the table, a frown of concentration on his face. Greg looked up when Jordan spoke and gave him a smile.
"The machine's running now," Greg grinned widely. He was positive that they would have the killer once the machine was finished. "It'll be finished in about a minute then we'll know the name of the killer," he got to his feet when the machine beeped, signaling that it was done.
"Look out," Greg heard Jordan yell a second before something crashed on to his head. He slumped to the floor, unconscious.
***Ten minutes later***
"Has Greg gotten the results yet?" Catherine asked as Grissom entered the break room. Everyone except Jordan and Greg was now in there, waiting for Greg to page them with the results. The only problem was that their pagers had been silent ever since Greg left to analyze the hair.
"I'm going to see what's going on," Nick got to his feet and Warrick also stood up. They quickly made their way over to the lab and stopped in their tracks at the sight that met their eyes. "Shit! Greg! Are you all right? Warrick, call an ambulance. He's not waking up."
"Calm down Nick," Warrick pressed his cell phone into Nick's hands and told him to call the ambulance. Warrick crouched down beside the unconscious lab tech to make sure he was still breathing and still had a pulse. "He's alive Nicky. He's going to be all right. He's just knocked out."
"Ambulance is on the way," Nick kneeled on Greg's other side and used a piece of paper towel to dab at the blood on Greg's forehead. "The walls are fucking glass! Why didn't anybody see him? He could have been like this for hours. Come on Greggo, wake up."
"Nicky?" Greg groaned as he came to. He blinked as the light hit his eyes and waited until his eyes could focus before he tried to sit up.
"Stay down Greg," Warrick gently pushed the lab tech back down, gently shifting his position slightly so that he was now lying with his head on Nick's lap. "You're bleeding and you were unconscious for who knows how long. We called an ambulance. It'll be here soon."
"Where's JB?" Greg looked up at Nick and Warrick but couldn't see Jordan. He began to panic when he couldn't see the CSI who'd been in the room with him. "He yelled 'look out' then something hit me. Where is he? He has to be somewhere. Did he go get you guys?"
"I'm sure he's fine Greg," Nick reassured the younger man. He looked around the lab for evidence of the attack and seen a few things, like a shattered bottle on the floor and a portion of the glass wall that had the spider web effect going through it. Something had hit that sheet of glass.
"What happened in here?" Grissom demanded as he, Sara, and Catherine stepped into the lab. Their faces all wore looks of surprise and shock as they looked around and seen the broken glass and Greg on the floor. "Greg, are you all right? Did you guys call an ambulance?"
"It's on its way Griss," Warrick told his boss. "As for what happened, Jordan yelled for Greg to 'look out' then something hit him and he blacked out. We found him and he regained consciousness. The only problem is the JB's missing."
