A/N: Poor Griss I really do like him underneath it all but, well he's in a bit of strife. That said I didn't really need to give him a bloody nose but considering his problem is sort of with his brain and that pressure on the brain/stress can cause nose bleeds I thought it wasn't too far fetched. Oh and I apologise for the one swear word, if your under 13 please think of the word as sugar instead of what it actually is.
"Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" Grissom screamed in his sleep almost as a howl more than actual words.
Catherine and Warrick had been discussing what to do next when they heard an almost animal cry come from Grissom's office. They both stopped and looked at each other wide eyed before turning heel and racing towards the source of the cry. Another one even louder than before pierced the air as they entered his office. What lay before them was something neither of them expected.
Grissom's face was covered in blood and slowly dripping onto his shirt he was thrashing from side to side as if trying to escape an invisible assailant. He was beyond normal agitation he was near manic. Just as Catherine and Warrick went to help him Nick appeared behind them.
"Nicky go grab a wet cloth from the bathroom." Catherine almost yelled at him as she continued moving towards Grissom. "Warrick you might need to hold him down, we need to wake him up and fast before he does any damage to himself"
Warrick and Catherine edged around either side of the desk so they could grab him evenly if need be.
"Grissom, Gil you need to wake up" Catherine demanded as Warrick reached to steady him.
"No, no oh god no' Grissom started to sob as Warrick started to hold him in his chair.
"Come on you need to wake up now" Catherine said angrily, her frustration for her friend showing in her words.
Slowly Grissom settled down, his breathing started evening out and his eyes sprang open.
"Sara" Grissom forced out looking from side to side at Warrick and Catherine.
"She's not here Griss she went to grab some food remember, she'll be back in a minute I can call her if you like" Warrick replied as Nick came sprinting through the door with a wet cloth hanging from his hand.
"Sara" he replied as he motioned to get up out of the chair.
"Your not going anywhere mister" Catherine replied as both her and Warrick held him down in his chair. "We need to get you cleaned up, you're a mess" she motioned for Nick to pass her the cloth. At this Grissom looked down at himself seeing his blood stained shirt "I'd say you've got a pretty good nose bleed there Gil, although it doesn't look like you've knocked it I'd say it's probably stress you worked yourself into a real state what the hell were you dreaming about, tilt your head back" Catherine requested as she started to clean his neck.
"Sara" Grissom requested angrily as if this plea would stop them from cleaning him and let him get up to look for her.
"Nick would you ring Sara seem's Grissom can't wait two seconds to find her" Catherine sighed frustrated at Grissom's persistence and lack of self preservation.
"She's not answering Cath, just going through to her voice mail" Nick commented as he closed his phone. At this Grissom pushed against Catherine and Warrick to get up, this time they let him go.
"Sara, he's got Sara" was all he got out as he raced out his office door.
"Shit, Warrick go with him, I'll meet you at the deli to try and find her so that we can calm him down, Nick stay here in case she comes back, keep trying her cell' with that they split.
Warrick raced out to the parking lot to find Grissom trying to get into his SUV.
"Griss let me" Warrick requested as he snatched the keys out of Grissom's hand, he saw anger flare in Grissom's eyes as he turned around to confront Warrick.
"Look you're in no state to drive, if you want to find Sara you're no good if you're dead in a car wreck". Warrick commented as he opened the driver's door. Grissom scrambled around to the passenger door.
"So are you going to tell me what's going on?" Warrick requested as he pulled the Tahoe out of the car park
Grissom sighed "He has Sara, the killer has Sara, he's a taxi driver, that's how he got the victim's to trust him, he's got her drugged, we have to find her, we don't have much time' Grissom put a hand to his head and groaned
"What is it?" Warrick questioned as he looked worriedly at his supervisor.
"My head it won't stop hurting, I can't concentrate, he's got her and I can't think straight, if she dies it'll be my fault, it'll be all my fault" Grissom claimed
"You can't blame yourself Griss we just need to find this guy" Warrick replied as he pulled into the Deli. They both jumped out of the Tahoe and headed towards the door.
Warrick started to wait in line so he could question the deli staff if they'd seen Sara, Grissom just kept his distance by the door looking around the crowded deli for Sara. He had the feeling that he was going to get nothing so he decided to head back outside to the car park. Something drew him to the corner of the car park and down the side of building where there was an access drive to the street behind that's when he saw it, Sara's necklace sparkling on the gritted drive, he'd given it to her for her last birthday. As he picked it up the amount of emotion he felt overwhelmed him.
"He went this way" he muttered angrily to himself as he started to pace down the drive way and into the street, leaving Warrick and everything else behind him. He was going to find Sara and he had to do it now.
