Sara and Nick came up from behind Grissom looking for the scene. Shock passed through their face when they saw all the blood by the bed but they stood patiently waiting for Grissom's orders.
There was a bang from behind them and Sara jumped. Nick grabbed her wrist and jumped around waiting to fight of anybody coming through the door but the only noise was an officer shouting. "Sorry, just dropped my flashlight!"
"My God, Be careful, this is a crime scene!" Grissom shouted out the door. He then turned to Nick and Sara who appeared to be holding hands. He felt a wave of jealousy flood threw him and it surprised him.
When Nick realized what Grissom was staring at he quickly dropped Sara's wrist and stepped side ways. Everyone knew that he had feelings towards Sara. The only problem was Sara was crushing on Grissom. Nick couldn't stand the feeling of liking someone and not having it returned. He wished that he had gone to the conference with Catherine instead of Warrick, then he would not be stuck in this triangle. Grissom then jumped into orders and Nicks mind returned to the case.
"Sara, I want you to get all the evidence off the body then go with it back to the lab. Make sure they check for rape. Get a sample of this blood and bring in the bed." Grissom paused as he eyed the curtains.
"The Bed?" Sara questioned
"Yes the bed and check the curtains too. Make sure to take lots and lots of photos." He finished and turned to Nick. "Nick, you get the exterior of the house I want to know where this guy was coming from and if he has been here before. I've got the interior."
"Looks like its going to be a long ni.. morning." Nick replied walking towards the front door. "Man, this house is big." He though to himself, "And for only one person." He took a walk around the perimeter of the house to get a feel for his surroundings and to see if there was any obvious evidence. On the front and one side of the house there were roads but on the back and other side of the house there was a forest. The house had no fence, driveway or even a garden, just a forest.
Nick headed towards the forest. The sun was now up so it wasn't completely dark any more, but after only 20 meters he couldn't see the house through the trees anymore. He had not realized just how thick the trees were. Then the trees disappeared before him and he was in a clearing a very small clearing with a very small shed in the middle of it. It all looked very familiar to him. Nick then realized that the shed had to be the same size as the victim's bed and the clearing the same size of the circle of blood. Nick slowly headed towards the shed and opened the door. Inside the shed was completely empty and the walls, floor, and ceiling were all painted blood red at least he hoped it was paint. Then door slammed behind him.
