Chapter 4
When Catherine awoke she was confused, at first all she could remember was that she and Warrick had been shot, and she was trying to get help, as she was aware of a concerned voice asking questions that were being answered by a more calm one, she became fully awake and felt someone holding her hand, she looked to her right and noticed Grissom dozing on the chair next to her bed holding her hand and her daughter, Lindsay curled up on another chair sleeping also, the concerned voice was none other than Greg Saunders, the lowly lab tech "Greg?" she asked softly "How long have I been out?" "According to what the chart says, you were brought in at 0700 and its 2300, you found Nick at 0645 so about 17 hours. at that Grissom stirred, "Catherine! You're okay!" was his elated statement "More or less."
3 weeks later.
(Theme "Who are you?" cell phone ringer) Nick fumbles for phone on night stand, knocking gun and i.d. off, he finds phone and punches send "Stokes" Nick says, sleepily "Nick get your ass in the lab NOW!! You and Sidle are 2 hours late; I presume she's with you" "uh no sir I haven't seen Sara since we had dinner at her apartment after end of shift yesterday" "that's odd, she's not answering her pager, cell, or home phone" "I'll stop by her place on the way in, this isn't like her, I'm worried."
10 minutes later, Sara's apartment.
(Pound, Pound, Pound) "Hey Sara! It's Nick! You home baby?" "Shit" Nick said to him self "Fine I'll kick the fucking door down" "Sara! If you can hear me I'm kicking the door in, I'll buy you a new one!" (Kick, Kick, Kick "CRAAAACK") Nick draws his gun "Sara!? Are you here?" Nick approaches her bedroom door, he try the knob but it's locked, Nick shoulders the door open and finds Sara sprawled across her bed clad in a bra and a pair of Nicks boxers, a pair of slacks and a blouse lay next to her, presumably what she was going to wear to work. "Sara!" Nick cried, he rushed to her side, her skin was cool to the touch, her hair was damp and a wet towel hung over her bathroom door, suggesting that she had recently taken a shower. Nick took her pulse, weak but no airway; he immediately began mouth to mouth resuscitation in an attempt to revive his lovely Sara "Come on Sara! Breathe! Come on! Breathe damn it! I love you Sara! Breathe!" no response "Sara breathe! Baby I love you! Please Breathe!" still no response "don't die on me damn it! I still owe you a cup of coffee! Breathe!" Sara started coughing and breathing but she was still unconscious. Nick took off his coat, put it around Sara, picked her up and ran out to his Tahoe.
Sara's Point Of View
Where the hell am I? You're safe Sara Daddy? But you're dead You were pretty close to joining me, permanently What happened? All I remember is taking a shower and starting to get ready for work than nothing. she trailed off Daddy, where are we? Well, Sara that's a hard question to answer; it's kind of in between heaven and purgatory It's so pretty, can you ask someone to turn down the white light? It's hurting my eyes Sure sweetie (light dims) So. am I dead? Or am I having an out of body experience? Well neither, really Damn, I need to pay more attention to the expiration date on those fig newtons Sara, there are three options and I will let you see the out come in your world of each choice, if you promise me I don't see you again for a long time, okay? Yes daddy Okay option number one: you die now Results: nick becomes broken man and never loves again, dies of broken heart Hmmm, No! #2 die and become reborn Results: sure you live but have no knowledge of anything and no one has any knowledge of you Gee, can I think about that? No! #3 go back to nick hmmm let me think about that, of course yes Okay I said yes, now what? Just think about Nick.
Reality: in Nick's Tahoe
"Sara, baby, wake up, I love you" Nick said with tears in his eyes "damn it" when she didn't respond, Nick drove up the emergency exit for Fremont medical center and jumped out, leaving the engine running and door open, he ran around to the passenger side and picked Sara's limp body up again and ran inside "Help, she's unconscious with weak pulse and shallow breathing" Nick yelled, as orderlies and doctors rushed with a gurney Nick broke down and started sobbing. Nick felt a hand on his shoulder; he spun around to face Catherine "Oh my god, Nick what happened?" "I don't know!" Nick sobbed "Sara will be okay" Catherine put a comforting arm around the big man's shoulders and led him to the waiting room.
