--Chapter 15--

"Sara…" Grissom mumbled.

"What is it?" she asked and looked at him. He was very pale and Sara saw blood running down his chest.

"We need to get out of here, I don't how much more I can take…" he looked at her, bent over, and kissed her cheek. "Thanks for helping me" he gave her a small smile and hugged her. "You made a huge sacrifice for me, and I don't know…" Sara laid a finger on his lips. "It's ok," she whispered. "No it's not!" He said and held her tighter. "What you did for me was…I can't even describe it!" he released her and their eyes locked. He caressed her cheek and placed a kiss on her lips.

Sara looked at him. She was stunned, he had kissed her. The man who was afraid to let anyone in his life, had kissed her. She tried not to think about it.

"We have to get out of here," she whispered and walked towards the stairs. Grissom leaned towards the wall but as soon as he moved pain shot though his body and he sank onto his knees.

Sara turned around when she heard a grunt. She saw Grissom's face. She ran towards him and helped him up and put her arms around his waist. Grissom leaned on her shoulder and slowly they moved towards the stairs. 

"We first need to disarm Hodges," Grissom said and sat down on the stairs.

"Yeah, but how?" Sara sat down next to him and started thinking. Then she turned to face Griss. "Do you think you can pull a stunt like that again?" and pointed to the room where Hank was in.

"What do you have in mind?" Grissom looked at her.

"If I can get Hodges down here, you can try to overpower him…" she looked into Grissom's eyes.

"I'll try, it's all I can do!" he sighted and got up from the stairs. He leaned against the wall to support himself. He took a piece of wood that he could use as a weapon, stumbled to the door, opened it, and went inside.

Sara walked up the stairs and opened the door to the living room. Hodges was sitting on a chair across the room.

"Hank needs some help," she said as casual as possible.

"Why?" he asked irritated, but after the word had left his mouth, he knew that it had something to do with Grissom. "Why did he let you leave the basement?" he asked suspiciously, "did something happen?"

"Grissom…he…" Sara stumbled.

"Ok" he grunted and rose from the chair and followed her downstairs.

When Hodges opened the door and walked inside, he saw Hank sitting in a corner. He was taped up. Hodges pulled his gun but he was to late. Grissom hit him with the piece of wood in his stomach. Hodges lost his grip on the gun and it fell to the floor. Grissom hit him again and Hodges fell to the floor. The gun was not far from him, so he tried to get it. Grissom saw what he was doing and lunged at him. Hodges got the gun and Grissom tried to grab it. Sara was looking at the gun; she was frozen at the spot. She couldn't do anything. She was scared that if she picked it up, she would have to use it.

Grissom desperately tried to get control of the gun. When he thought he had it, it went off, and both men didn't move anymore.

Sara screamed Grissom's name and suddenly found she could move again. She ran towards the men and saw that neither of them were moving.

"Grissom?" she said again and touched his arm.

Grissom opened his eyes and looked over to Sara. He pushed himself of Hodges and saw that the bullet had penetrated his chest. Grissom checked if he had a pulse, but he couldn't find one.

"He's dead…" he whispered and crawled towards Sara.

Tears were running down her cheeks. Grissom put both hands on her face and brushed the tears from her face. "It's ok…he's dead…" his voice trembled. He took her in his arms and he started to cry too. After a couple of minutes they pulled away from each other and tried to stand up.

They stumbled out of the room and went up the stairs.

*******

Outside everyone heard the shot. They looked at each other, but they didn't move.

Suddenly the door swung open and Sara stepped outside. They saw someone behind her.

"I bet he's dead…I bet Grissom's dead," Nick voice trembled.

Then they saw who was behind Sara. Grissom! The gang ran towards them and Grissom collapsed into Warrick's arms.

"Jeez!" Warrick looked to Nick, "Get the paramedics!" he yelled towards Catherine.

"Hang on Grissom…" Warrick begged.

Sara collapsed into Nick's arms. "I'm fine…" she said, "he's not," and pointed towards Grissom.

"Hank…" Grissom looked to Warrick, "Basement…"

"Hank was the other person?" Warrick and Nick looked at him.

Grissom nodded.

The paramedics ran over to Grissom and Sara.

"Where is Hodges?" Nick looked at Sara.

"Dead." she simply stated. Then a tear ran down her cheek. "Help Grissom, please?" She pleaded. "He can't die…"

Two paramedics checked out Sara and brought her to the ambulance. The other two paramedics were helping Grissom. After ten minutes Grissom was in the ambulance on his way to the hospital.

Nick and Warrick went inside with three officers.

"He said that they were in the basement," Warrick said to the officers. They nodded and went down the stairs. There was only one door. The officers pulled their guns and walked slowly towards the door, and opened it.

They saw Hodges lying on the floor in a pool of blood. Hank was sitting in a corner. He was taped up.

Nick walked towards Hank and pulled him up, immediately Nick fist landed in Hank's face. "You little SOB!" he shouted.

The police officers ran towards Nick and Hank, and pulled Nick away. They cut the tape and replaced it by handcuffs.
