Follow the evidence
Chapter 12: The traitor
A/N: Sorry I took so long to post this chapter. I'm home for the holidays and it's hard to get enough time to write the story with five other people wanting the computer. I'll be back in my dorm by Sunday though and there I'm the only one who uses the computer. Sorry also that this is short. It's kind of a lead up to a long chapter.
"Who's watching Greg?" Catherine demanded as Nick ran into the break room. He sat down in an empty chair to catch his breath before replying to her question.
"Grissom sent Mandy to my house to relieve me," Nick explained, still not quite comfortable with leaving Greg with her but he was needed here. "He said she volunteered so I could come in. I should be back before he even wakes up so hopefully he won't even notice."
"At least he didn't send Vincent," Warrick chuckled as he imagine the fuss Greg would put up if he were left with Vincent. "Did Griss fill you in? He and Sara are at the hospital with Brass waiting for news on JB. I personally hope he's in a lot of pain."
"When we found him he was in the process of killing another girl," Catherine explained when she saw the confused look on Nick's face. She gave him a moment for the news to sink in before continuing. "We searched his place for a clue to where he might be and found an address. We were almost too late but the girl is going to be fine. Him on the other hand, Brass shot him once in the thigh and once in the chest. We still don't know whether he'll survive."
"Grissom was right," Nick murmured in shock. He looked over at Catherine then at Warrick and could tell they felt betrayed by Jordan's actions. "He must have attacked Greg then stolen all the evidence. He'd better live so we can put him in jail for the rest of his life. He could have killed Greg!"
"Calm down Nicky," Catherine put a hand on his arm to try to soothe him. She had a feeling he'd react this way and regretted how Greg would act even more. "We got him. And Greg's just fine, that's the important thing. Jordan can't hurt any of us anymore."
"You're right," Nick took a few deep breaths to calm himself down then stood up. He wanted to go back to his place to deliver the news to Greg himself. "I'm going home to tell Greg. I know he'll be upset but he'll be even more upset if we try to hide this from him."
"We'll go with you," Warrick got to his feet as did Catherine. Nick gave his friends a small smile for their support then lead the way to his car.
