So my Pharmacology class was sufficiently boring, my three day weekend sufficiently long and my rez network sufficiently fixed (finally) that it spawned another chapter of When The Darkness Turns To Light so enjoy.
Same disclaimer applies, nothing is mine so please don't sue me.
When The Darkness Turns To Light: Found
By: PrepSatan
"Sara! Sara! Sara if you can still hear me I'm coming over!" Grissom could still hear her breathing, deep and slow, so he knew that she hadn't hung up. He raced out the door stopping just long enough to tell Warrick what was happening.
When Sara woke up Grissom was sitting on the floor with her. She wanted to look at him, to talk to him, but she was so tired. Her eyes wouldn't focus on anything and it was making her dizzy. "Sara, Sara stay with me her" Grissom's voice sounded so far away, she tried to listen, to focus, but it was too hard.
A chill ran down Grissom's spine when Sara lost consciousness again. He had been there for less than five minutes and he knew that something was terribly wrong. Suddenly his training kicked in, he quickly checked Sara over for injuries, and all things considered she seemed fine. He looked around for any sign of struggle or anything that would explain what was going on. The only thing he found was the alarm clock that Sara had smashed earlier that day. So at least she was coherent at some point that day. There were no bottles or signs that anyone had attacked or drugged her, he was about to check the bathroom when he heard Sara say "Grissom?" She sounded so weak, so childlike. In his efforts to figure out what had happened he had forgotten that Sara was still on the floor. He went back to her. "Sara, does your neck hurt?" "No" came her quiet reply. "Good can you wiggle your toes for me?" He looked down and watched as they wiggled. "Good, let's get you back in bed then." He picked her up gently, she instinctively turned towards him. It wasn't until her head came to a rest against his neck that Grissom felt the fever. He wondered to himself how he could have missed the most obvious thing; he thought maybe he selectively ruled that she was sick out in his head because he couldn't stand the thought of Sara sick or in pain. He set Sara back in bed and covered her. "Sara why didn't you call in sick?"
"I'm not sick." She slurred her words together into one sound and struggled against the blanket. Grissom put his hand on her shoulder and pushed her back down. He let a small smile play on his lips. "Sara you are sick, stay here, I'll be right back." He went into her kitchen and retrieved a glass of water, stopping in the bathroom on his way back he grabbed a bottle of Aspirin to find it almost empty. He also found a prescription bottle that read "meprobamate". 'I wonder what that is?' Grissom thought as walked back to Sara's bedroom. "Sara? Did you feel sick yesterday? When you went to bed? When you woke up this morning and smashed your clock?"
"Smashed clock?" Sara asked.
"Yes Sara you smashed your alarm clock."
"Too loud, it was too loud."
Sara was slurring to the point she sounded drunk. Grissom thought he should just cut to the chase. "Sara, look at me and think hard." He waited until she looked at him and focused as best she could. "Did you take anything yesterday when you got home from work?" She closed her eyes for a minute then opened them
"No."
"Okay, good, did you take anything this morning when you woke up." Again she closed her eyes and thought
"No."
"Good, sit up and take these." He said holding out the last two Aspirin. Sara struggled to sit; Grissom helped her up and held the glass while she took the pills. He let her go back to sleep and went to read what was on the prescription bottle.
(Insert maniacal laughter here)
That's all for now, you'll have to wait and see what happens. For those of you who know what the drug is please don't ruin it for everyone else.
