Thanks to those who've reviewed...I really appreciate it! I hope that this chapter fulfills your desires and doesn't make you too mad. Hey, I told you there was a twist!


Catharine walked into the break room, which was already occupied by Warrick and Nick. Hey, guys. How's the case coming?
They said enthusiastically in unison.
I wish that I could say the same for the one Sara and I have been working. Speaking of Sara, have either of you seen her?
Neither of them had. Just then Grissom walked in with a lack of papers in his hand. We have no new cases, so Nick and Warrick, either work on paper work or help Sara and Cath. Where is Sara?
They all looked at each other with looks of confusion. They knew that Sara wouldn't be late. She'd even come to work when she was sick. They all became concerned.
I'm going to call her, this isn't like her, Grissom said as he walked out of the door.
Five minutes later he returned with a grim expression on his face. There was no answer. I'm going to her apartment.
I'm going with you, no arguments. Catharine demanded.
Nick and Warrick decided to stay behind in case she happened to come in.


Sara opened her eyes to an unfamiliar room. Her confusion faded quickly as she remembered him and the rape. She seethed with anger and hurt.
I was wondering when you were going to wake up. The voice startled her. She turned to see who it belonged to.
Oh my God. Emma.
How..do you know my name? The young woman queried.
Sara Sidle. I am a forensic scientist and I've been working to find you. It is so great to see you, but uh...not under these circumstances.
The two women shared stories. They cried together and got angry together.
I just don't understand why he got me, Sara said. He was obsessed with you, but he never met me.
Well, I have come to realize that when he encounters a beautiful woman who happens to be incredibly smart, he believes that he loves her and must have her. I don't know how he came across you, but you fit his qualifications. And now he is going to try to make you love him.
Sara scanned the room for the millionth time. There was only one way out: A heavy door that seemed to lock as soon as it was shut. There was a toilet, a standing shower, and two beds. Nothing else. Sara knew that they'd have to make a clever plan to escape. She also knew that the team would do everything they could to find them.
Look, Emma. We have got to work together to come up with some way to get out of here. The people that I work with are going to do everything they can to find us, but there is so little evidence to work with. It might be up to us.
They put their heads together and started brainstorming.


Dammit, Dammit! Grissom's head was spinning. He and Catharine had found blood and an obvious sign of struggle in Sara's bedroom.
God, Grissom. He's got her...All of her drawers and closet have been ransacked. The same goes for her bathroom. I can't believe this is happening.
Grissom was crying. He didn't do that, until now. His coworker, the person he'd hand-picked, and the woman he secretly loved, had been kidnaped by a maniac.
Catharine stood in awe. Not only was her friend missing, but her boss was crying. She didn't know what to think. Ok, Grissom. We've got to get it together. There's more evidence here than at the first site. And standing here is not going to get her back.
She was right. Ok. Let's collect evidence. Call Nick and Warrick and tell them to find anything they can about that bastard. NOW. That last word came out louder than it should have, but for the first time in his life, Grissom was emotionally involved in a case.

tbc....
