A/N: Thanks for the reviews everyone. I'm glad you like it so far. I'm
sorry to leave you hanging but this is categorized as suspense, so I have
to add some somewhere. Sorry I rook so long to update. I've had a really
bad writers block and I got the CSI computer game, and I'm addicted. lol.
Let me know what you think. E-mails are greatly welcomed too!!!

"Call an ambulance!" Grissom shouted as he rushed out the door after Hank. He made it outside just as the car sped down the alley and turned right. There was no way they could go after him, there was too much at stake. Hank could kill Nick in the blink of an eye. They'd just have to wait it out.
He headed back inside, where Catherine and Warrick were at Sara's side.
"How is she?" He asked, almost dreading to know what the answer was.
"She's still breathing. Pulse is faint but there. It looks like the bullet only grazed her side, but she's lost a lot of blood. I don't think the bullet hit an artery though, the blood is dark." Catherine informed him.
He let out a sigh of relief. At least she was alive. "Is an ambulance on the way?"
"Yeah, they should be here any minute."
"Good."
They could here the siren from the ambulance off in the distance.

She awoke in a bright yellow room surrounded by a half dozen people and flowers. The sun was shinning directly in her eyes, causing her to squint. I must be ok if they allowed visitors. She thought to herself. Or maybe I'm in really bad shape and they don't expect to make it. Ok, calm down Sara, the last thing I remember is a gun going off and the. nothing. Oh my God. I've been shot. Ok, relax Sara. Just then Grissom noticed she was awake.
"Sara!" He exclaimed and everyone looked towards her. Suddenly everyone was crowded around the bed asking how she was doing. It was almost overwhelming.
"How's Nick?" She asked, not knowing what happened after she was hit.
Every just looked at her. No one uttered a word. Ok, something bad must have happened.
"Somebody please tell me what happened to Nick." She pleaded.
Grissom was the first to speak. "Sara honey." He paused. "Hank has taken Nick hostage." He said quietly.
Her heart stopped. Hank still had Nick? This was bad. He would kill him for sure. This was all her fault. It was her he was after, not Nick. It was her fault Nick got dragged into this.
"Sara? Sara?" She made no response. Her eyes were distant, almost glazed. "Sara, honey, he's going to be ok." Grissom tried to assure her.
At that moment the nurse entered the room carrying a tray. "It's time for your meds. You'll all have to leave now. She needs her rest."
They all reluctantly left the room single file. Grissom was the last to leave. "Sara, it's going to be ok. We're going to find Nick." He assured her.

Back downstairs in the waiting room.
"Do you really think we'll be able to get Nick out alive?" Warrick asked doubtful.
"I really don't know." Grissom replied sitting down in one of the uncomfortable blue chairs. He ran his hands through his hair.
Catherine sat down next to him and rubbed his back with her hand. "Nick's smart. He'll figure out something to keep himself alive." She said, reassuringly.
"I hope you're right. I need to go get some air." He left the room and headed for the door. Once outside he leaned against the side of the building and closed his eyes. This was really bad.
He heard sirens off in the distance coming closer and closer. He opened his eyes in time to see an ambulance pull up not far from him. Two paramedics jumped out and ran to the back. They pulled out a stretcher and rushed towards the Emergency room door. As they got closer, Grissom got a good look at who was on the stretcher. He grabbed onto the wall to support himself.
Nick.

A/N: Yeah I know it's short, but I haven't really decided what I'm doing next, so bear with me. Should I have Catherine and Grissom get together? Please review and tell me what you think. ( I'm always opened to suggestions.
