To CSI Gray: Thanks for the tips and nice reviews.

To Fairygurl621: It's true.

Wow, sorry that it took me so long to get a new chapter up. I've been helping my mom out with a rummage sale…for the next five days as well : (

Warrick Brown was not in a good mood. There was a missing nine year old girl, lost in Vegas. All the cadets and a lot of officers were out looking for her. Catherine was with them too, doing her best to help find the little girl before someone else did. They were making an effort. He was sitting here, waiting for some family member to show up. All of the closest relatives had been contacted, but no one had known anything, or hadn't answered. So he was left to sit it out, hoping someone would come along.

Glancing up from the photos and papers strewn about him, he saw a young woman at the front desk. She looked awfully familiar. He glanced back down at the pictures.

"No way," he muttered. Quickly, he crossed the evidence room, heading towards the confused looking lady. She looked at him, her deep blue eyes full of tears.

"Are you Misses Marches?" Warrick asked slowly. "Lorelei Marches?" To his surprise, she started shaking her head vigorously.

"No, I'm Emily Loren. Lorelei's sister, her twin, to be exact," she explained. "Twins run in our family."

"Ahh, that explains a bit," Warrick murmured. "Do you know where your sister is?"

"She's on a second honeymoon with Dale in Hawaii," Emily said. "Is it true? The kids are…" before she could finish, she broke out into tears.

"Well, Emma and Martin at least. The other twin--"

"Lee, her name was Lee," Emily whispered. "Emma and Lee, Emily. They were named for me." She paused, wiping tears from her face. "I'm sorry, it's just--"

"That's okay Miss Lorden. I see stuff like this everyday. Now, here, sit down," Warrick sat across from her. "Have you ever met their babysitter, Lauren Drake?"

"Yeah, I met her once. Funny story, actually," Emily gave a small snort of laughter. "She was cleaning out the fish bowl and the fish jumped out of the little green net thingy." Warrick smiled, glad that Emily seemed to be calming down She smiled back at him. "Well, she started screaming, and Dale had to come and put the fish back in the bowl. It was like she had a total panic attack, and was calling about how the fish tried to commit suicide. Was it a sign?"

"No," Warrick stood up. "If I'm right, someone else did it, made it look like she did. That's what I'm thinking."

"Why's that?" she sniffled.

"Because if she freaked at a fish trying to 'commit suicide', then how could she do it herself?" With that, Warrick left the grieving girl to call Catherine.

Catherine Willows was not happy. It was pretty cold outside, and here she was, walking through two feet of murky water. The Marches lived only a block away from a lake, so it was possible that the little girl had come here. Everyone worked in silence, in case the child called out to any of them. Suddenly, her pants started chirping at her.

"Willows," she said quietly into her phone. She waded closer to shore as she recognized Warrick's voice.

"Hey Cath, I just talked to Miss Emily Lorden. She's sisters with the mother," Warrick rushed into the phone.

"Okay, what did she say?" Catherine ventured. "Like--"

"The twin's name is Lee, for starters. And second, I don't think the babysitter did it," came the gravely reply.

"What? Oh, one sec," She turned, facing the searchers on the lake. "Guys, her name is Lee!" Suddenly, the name Lee was shouted and heard all over. "Alright Warrick, why don't you think it was the babysitter?"

"The sister told me that Lauren freaked when the Marches' pet fish almost died. Doesn't sound like someone who would later turn around and try to kill anyone."

"Then who--" Catherine didn't get to finish, because she was interrupted by a shout from the lake.

"I've got her!"

Alright, and again I'm sorry for not updating.

Teaser for next time

"Happy birthday!" wink
