Thank you, to everyone for reviewing, I'm flabbergasted! So many reviews, and so few people who have guessed right. Lets continue!
Grissom ran into the crime lab as he heard the sirens of an approaching ambulance.
"What's going on?" he asked the first person he saw.
"The elevators crashed."
"What's going on? Everyone back to work!" Ecklie shouted, stepping into the crowd.
"One of the elevators has crashed." Bobby said, running out from the stairs and skidded to a stop before Ecklie.
"Is anyone hurt?" Catherine asked, jogging up to the group with Sara and Brass in toe.
"Nick thinks Sofia was in the lift." He told them, leading the way to the stairs.
"Nick!" Warrick ran out from the stairs, having arrived ten minutes after the first group.
"Hey." Nick greeted him, phased out slightly as he sat outside the morgue.
"You okay?" he asked.
"Yeah. We should get started, clean this up." He said, trying to stand up but pushed back down by Grissom.
"Warrick, take him home." He ordered. "And stay with him until he calms down." He continued.
"Sure." Warrick agreed. "Come on man." And led him up the stairs.
The firemen had just managed to open up the crushed elevator. And were allowing paramedics to go in to check vitals.
"Dead." One of them answered, sending Grissom back into a chair.
"Bring the Coroner over." Another one shouted. The group parted as a trolley came through and the Coroner helped to lift the mangled body out.
"Grissom." He looked up at Catherine. "Lets take you home." She said, helping him up.
"I'm alright." He said, pulling his arm away.
"No. You've hardly slept or eaten. I'm over ruling you, you're in no state." She said.
"Sara, will you take him home?" she asked.
"Yeah." The two led Grissom to the stairs and Sara walked him up.
"Warricks cleared. You, Sara and Grissom are cleared and Nick's just been cleared." Greg said, stepping down to Catherine a few minutes after she sent Grissom home.
"I thought you said the camera was covered?" she questioned.
"Not entirely, I could still make out some of Nick's face. He never got on the elevator and the person who did this got on, on the floor above. That one was covered as well." He handed her some snap shots of Nick going into storage.
"Lets you and me check with the firemen." She started. "We'll see if they can find what went wrong. This could have been and accident." She explained.
"I doubt it." Greg said. "With the camera's covered, this was planned."
The two walked up the stairs and found the firemen on the top floor with Ecklie.
"Have you been cleared Sanders?" he asked, none too happy about what was going on.
"Yes, I've got CCTV of me with some lab techs on the third floor around the time the elevator crashed." He said, very professionally.
"Good." He stepped back to let them do their job.
It was the next night when the whole living team were back in the meeting room. They were slowly going over each case.
"Archie, found be Greg." Grissom said, putting a picture into the middle of the table.
"Killed the morning before Greg went to see him." Al Robbins explained, putting his autopsy file with the pictures. "Asphyxiation due to strangulation."
"Everyone was cleared by friends or family at the time." Catherine explained, putting her interview papers with the growing pile.
"No prints, or evidence other that the fibres from a CSI jacket." Nick explained, putting the fibres down.
"Next was David Hodges." Grissom continued, starting a new pile.
"Axe through into the face, severing the lower jaw from the rest of the body." Robbins said.
"Prints on the Axe included most people in the lab." Warrick added.
"David Phillips. Bled out." Grissom said, starting yet another pile.
"CSI knife, no records of any new purchases for this item." Catherine explained.
"No prints." Sara added.
"Sofia." Grissom started, letting Catherine put the pictures down.
"No suspects." She explained.
"Wire was cut causing the elevator to fall." Greg said, pulling out photos of the cut wire. "Not all with a message." He said.
"The last two had no message, unless verbal to the deceased." Brass finished.
"And we still have nothing!" Nick exclaimed, falling back into his chair.
"I suggest that we all take some form of protection. Guns with you the whole time." Brass suggested.
"But what will we do with these cases, wait for another attack?" Greg asked.
"We may have to." Ecklie said, having listened to all the evidence. He'd ended up having to sit in to hear everything since the safety of the lab was now in danger.
"Take the day off." He ordered. "Day shift are coming in since this is all happening to night and swing shift." Everyone nodded and headed for their cars.
Catherine sat for a moment and waved each person off as she had been left with the parking space in the far corner of the lot. Just as she started the car a man walked past the front and opened his car door next to her. She smiled at him and put her car into first gear.
"Don't move!" she turned and pulled out her gun, eyes wide as she realised who it was.
"Put you gun down or I'll shoot him." He held up and unconscious Bobby from ballistics."
"Okay, okay." She answered, trying to keep calm. She dropped the gun out of the driver's side window as the man threw Bobby into the back and climbed into the front. "Drive." He ordered.
"Where?" she asked, trying to keep the fear out of her voice.
"To your home." He answered.
"Okay." She said, feeling the gun press into her ribs. She backed out and drove off, thinking every fear in her head.
Is this any good people, am not sure about this chapter.
