As the elevator door swung open Catherine cautiously stepped out, before fully exiting the elevator she looked both ways. As her body trembled in fear she took a deep breath and stepped out of the elevator.

"Hello" she called as she walked away from the elevator " Is anyone there?" There was a brief silence that gave Catherine the creeps. As she continued to walk through the basement searching for an emergency exit she jumped at the delaying of the elevator door that had just closed. Catherine turned around after being startled and tried to cam her self down. " You're fine Cath. Gil will be here soon and everything will be fine you just have to stay out of sight." Catherine made her way down the dimly lit corridor until she saw a figure of a man coming toward her. Catherine squinted her eyes and called to him " excuse me sir, I need your help there is this guy and he…" Catherine trailed off when she realized who the man was. " Todd" she whispered to herself as she turned to run back to the Elevator.

Todd ran after her and grabbed her. " You thought you would lose me didn't you?" Todd laughed " Well I will have you know that my partner in crime, you're doctor gave me full access to the hospital, I know every nook and cranny in this place, and I think we should go somewhere we can be alone." He wrapped his arm around Catherine neck and dragged her down the hallway. " I guess we could go to the morgue, no one will be looking at us or for us in there."

Catherine struggle to get way from him but his grip only got tighter. " I am not letting you get away again baby, you should know that by now." Todd reached the morgue and pushed Catherine inside. Sliding across the floor Catherine slammed in to the wall and curled up with her knees against her chest. " Please Todd " she begged " What do you want form me? Please just leave me alone." Catherine felt the tears making their way through and she tried desperately not to let the fear over come her.

After barricading the door wit the autopsy table Todd walked over to her and pulled her up by here hair. " Where do you feel mod comfortable doing this?" he smiled "Doing what?" Catherine tried again not to how her fear. Todd leaned his head in and kissed Catherine. " I remember the first time I kissed you, the first time I touched you, you were amazing." Todd smiled and slid his hand through the back of her Hospital gown. Catherine raised her hands to stop him and tried to push away. " Please Todd, not again, I am begging you please you don't have to do this." Knowing very well of Todd's of intensions Catherine let the fear overcome her. "You don't' have to be afraid, baby, Todd is going to take care of you."

Catherine struggled to get away again. " You will never get away with this," she snapped. Todd smiled wickedly " I got away with it the first time, and with my special condition I will get away with it again."

Todd lifted his hand and slapped Catherine across the face and proceeded to throw her on to the floor.

Getting on the floor with Catherine, he straddled her and slowly ran his hands up her leg.

Todd bent down again and kissed her. As he did so he began to remove his belt form around his waist.

Already far to weak to fight him or push him off, Catherine began to struggle, Todd was getting frustrated and pulled out his gun that was in the back of his pants around his waist line and jammed the gun in her mouth. " Stop fighting me kit cat, you don't want to die do you" Catherine shook her head no as the tears came back to her.

Todd removed the gun and wedged it set it down beside him. "Now, to finfish what I started" Todd bent back down to kiss her again. Catherine turned her face and saw the gun, she tried to free her hands from Todd 's grip but he was far to strong for her. Catherine knew she had to do something fast, so when he kissed her again she chomped down on his tongue. As Todd's head snapped back in pain, Catherine could see the blood falling from his mouth from where she had injured him. Grabbing the gun she aimed at Todd and stood up quickly. " I told you to stop, I want you to stay away from me, and if you come near me again I swear to god I will kill you." Todd stood u, you don't want to shoot me, I know you, and you could not harm another human being if you tried. So just out the gun down and we can talk about this." Todd put his hand up and step forward. Catherine stood her ground and kept the gun pointed. " I am warning you, stay where are you." Catherine kept the gun aimed until she heard the rattling at the door. "Catherine are you in there." Todd stepped forward hoping that she was distracted by the voice but she was not fooled and pointed the gun again, her hands tremble and she still could not fight the tears. Gil" she called " I am in here, and I am okay." Gil kicked at the door and entered the room. Catherine" he looked over at her " it's not worth it, put the gun down." Catherine shook her head " I can't Gil, he has hurt us so much, Gil he tried tot rape me again, I just want him dead Gil please just make it go away."

"Catherine" Gil walked slowly toward her " please" as he reached her Gil grabbed the gun and she fell into his arms. Todd took this as an opportunity and charged at the two. Todd grabbed the gun that was knocked out of Gil's hand and pointed it at the two who were now on the ground.

"Well well the table have certainly turned" Todd laughed and pointed the gun at Gil " Anything you want to say before I kill your boyfriend." Todd looked at Catherine. Todd smiled " nothing at all?" he pointed the gun " okay" Todd gripped the trigger and aimed at Gil " I just want you to know that after I have a little fun with her she will be joining you."

Catherine buried her face in Gil's chest and Gil wrapped his rams around Catherine.

BANG

Gil and Catherine waited for a few seconds and lifted their heads when they heard a body fall to the ground. They looked up to se Todd on the ground. He was dead and behind him standing with a gun aimed at the spot where was Todd was standing was Dr. Mike Renel. He then looked at the other two on the floor. " Are you two okay" Gil stood up and helped Catherine to her feet. Placing his hands on her face, he smiled " I thought I was going to lose you, are you okay?" Catherine shook her head " Yeah, I am okay, I was so scared."

Catherine and Gil walked out of the morgue and up to the main floor where the met up with Brass and the entire graveyard shift.

Catherine looked at Gil and took his hand. "Did I tell you how sorry I was for hurting you?"

Gil shook his head yes " but don't worry about that right now, we have a family to start and soon we will have a wedding to plan." Catherine made a face and kissed him. " As you asking me to marry you?" Gil kissed her back. "You're a smart girl, you figure it out." Gil took her hand and they walked back to her hospital room.
