Gil grabbed onto Catherine's hand as Paul lead them quietly up a large stair case to the main floor .

"Wait here" Jacob whispered as he walked through the door and out of sight.

"Okay" Gil sighed " What the hell is happening?"

Catherien shook her head " he said Brass was outside with every cop in vegas" she paused and looked down at the marks on his wrists "looks like we are going to get out of here after all"

Gil grabbed her and pulled her into his arms " I'm so sorry Cath, I am sorry he hurt you, I am sorry I let him did those things to you, this is all my fault and I.."

Catherin cut him off " Stop it. I'm fine really" she pulled away "don't worry about me"

Gil made a face when she pulled away " don't be like that" he whispered " don't be distant, don't put a wall up and lock me out"

Catherien shook her head " Jacob told us not to talk" she whispered and looked at him. " what" she snapped when she saw him making a face at her and put his arm out to hold her "Please Gil...I don't want to be touched. I just want to go home"

Gil dropped his hand " okay, I'm sorry"

Gil did not try to comfort her anymore as he stood with his heart breaking in two and waited for Jacob to come back.

Jacob walked slowy through the kitchen and the bedrooms looking for Paul but he was nowhere to be found.

"Now's our chance" Jacob whispered to himself and and quickly ran back to the stariwell. to the two csi's.

"Now" he whispered " we have to go now"

Jacob opende the door for the two to run. Gil grabbed Catherine's hand and helped her up he last few steps, as the two rounded the kitchen to get to the front door Paul stepped out of the shadows and grabbed Catherine by her hair.

"Interesting" Paul snapped pointing his gun at her temple "how my own flesh and blood could betray me like this" he yelled staring at Gil but talking to Jacob.

"You were supposed to kill him" he said tightening his grip on Catheirn's hair " we had a deal and you backed out"

Paul stepped backward pulling Catherine with him and backed into the kitchen " did you really think your were going to escape?" he screamed and threw Catherine down to the floor.

Paul ran back to the hallway and raised his gun.

"Wait" Catherine yelled from the kitchen trying to pull hersef to her feet " Wait please"

Paul laughed and glared at her "Say good bye" he smiled and pulled the trigger on his gun sending a loud shoot ringing through the air

Gil squeezed his eyes shut and waited for his body to give in to the pain but it never happened. Gil opened his eyes just in time to see Jacob's body fall to the floor in front of him.

Gil looked back up at Paul and saw him run back to the kitchen and grab Catherine.

"No" she yelled as she tried backing away from him " don't touch me"

Paul grabbed her up and wrapped his arm around her neck and slowy inched his way back toward the front door.

"You are my ticket out of here" he whisperd in her ear " and you" he snapped pointing his gun at Gil "open the door"

Gil slowly walked toward the door when he heard a familiar voice yelling for him to stop

"Freeze"

Paul quickly turned to see Brass and Warrick pointing guns at him.
