Author's
note: I decided to post a second chapter, to make up for my
deficiency last week. This is a sort of "I'm sorry" and
"Please, please, won't you continue to read?" type of thing.
And no nastiness in this chapter at all!
Sorry if it's
completely out of character.

Grissom's vehicle
"We need to get back to that crime scene. We need to go over every inch of that house, find out who did this," Blatantly stating the obvious, Grissom placed his foot upon the gas pedal just a little more firmly. "We need to go back to that crime scene. We need to re-examine everything. I want you to dust for prints. Check everything. You got that? Everything."
"Griss…" vainly Sara tried to interrupt her unusually volatile supervisor.
"We need to catch this guy. He is sick… he's sick! I need to catch him. I need-"
"Grissom! Would you please… just… just stop it?" Sara was not one to beseech him in such a manner, but his nearly incoherent patois was only increasing her apprehension.
"Don't even ask me that. Just… just leave me alone for a minute."
"No! I'm not going to just… sit here, and listen to you prattle on like a madman. You need to stop it. You need to just… you need to stop talking. Just shut the fuck up and listen to me. Now!" Sara's pluck shocked even herself in her situation. "Please," she added as an afterthought.
"You don't… you don't understand," Hearing her supervisor, Mr. Gilbert Grissom: Superman Extraordinaire, seemingly made of stone and disconcerted by nothing, shaking and gasping for logic was much more than enough to shake her own stability.
She had to
do something, say something, to make everything better.
A few
magic words and the questions are answered.
In the
same manner that a kiss can cure an injury, she had to say something
to bring reason back to this man's shattered world.
As usual, she fucked it up.
I just realized. I probably should have included this in the other chapters, but I'll start now.
TBC…
