So sorry that it has taken forever to get a new chapter up. I have been so busy. To everyone that reviewed, Thanks! And I have changed the way I go from one scene to the next, telling you where they are takes away from the story. And I don't own Crossing Jordan. Now on with the show...

"So I am pretty sure you know what tools to use and for what," Bug said as he pushed the body back into the cooler.

"Yea pretty much and we can conclude that these two died of gunshot wounds to the head. Execution style." Saren answered as she wrote down the results on the chart.

"Well it is pretty much lunch time, so lets clean up and head down to the break room," He looked at her as she finished up and placed the clipboard down.

"Alright, you first," Saren said as she opened the door and allowed him to exit.

Nigel was swaying from one foot to the next as Garret walked in.

"You shouldn't tell her just yet, Nigel," he said as he noticed the uneasiness in the room, "I mean she just started work and all. So it might be a bad idea."

Lily walked into the room, "So I called the Davizzi family and they said that they will stop by in about fifteen minutes."

"We really should tell her, I mean she is going to wonder why her family is here and she might be offended that we didn't tell her first. Seeing that she is new and getting on her bad side this early in the game could make the working environment a little," Nigel paused, "Weird."

"It is your funeral," Garret said as Lily sat down.

Jordan walked in and she sat down near Garret, "I'll tell her, seeing that she probably won't like me because I am such a nice person."

"That isn't true and you know it," Lily said as the door opened and Saren stepped in with Bug not far behind.

"Hello everyone," Saren said as she walked over to the coffee pot and fixed herself a cup, "Anybody want one."

A whole bunch of no's was their reply.

"Saren we have to tell you something," Jordan said as Saren took a seat at the far end of the table.

"Yes," she replied and then took a sip from her cup.

"Well we know that you recently moved here and that your brother, the one from New York, recently moved here on the other side of town." Garret said as Jordan gave him a scolding look.

"Your point is..." Saren looked a little confused.

"When was the last time you talked to your brother?" Garret asked returning Jordan's look.

"About two weeks ago," She felt a little lost. "Why?"

"I'm going to cut to the chase," Jordan said as she leaned forward in her chair. "As you know, today we had a John Doe fall into our hands. Well he isn't a John Doe after all, his name is Lucas Davizzi."

It felt as if fists were being pounded into her body again. "What, who, is this a joke, because it isn't all that funny!"

"No, he was stabbed and we were wondering if you had any ideas why." Garret looked at Saren and sighed as he saw pain stretch across her face.

"No," was her simple answer. "Did you call the rest of the family?"

At that moment the door opened and Woody poked his head inside, "Don't mean to be interrupting your break, but the Davizzi family is here to collect a body."

Everyone stood up and Woody smiled at Saren and dumbly commented, "Are they killing you already?"

"Shut up," Saren replied, which completely wiped the smile off of his face, slowly he followed them to the waiting room wondering what he could have said to offend her.

Entering the waiting room Saren's brothers jumped to their feet and started to hug her as she cried uncontrollably. After signing a few papers and discussing the possibility that Lucas might have had enemies, everyone said their good-byes and left. Once everyone was gone Saren just stood facing the door anger growing inside her.

"Thank you," She said turning around.

"What for?" Lily asked.

"For telling me and not letting me find out through them." She smiled.

Bug sat down and asked, "Why weren't your mother and father here too?"

Saren plopped down on the couch by the window, "Because they haven't been apart of our lives for about three years."

"Oh, I am so sorry, did they die too?" Nigel asked looking concerned.

"No, they just thought they could control my life and because of their decisions I wound up in the hospital for about a year." Saren said as she wiped a stray tear from her cheek.

"I think maybe we should know what happened, it could help with finding Lucas' killer. That is only if you want to talk about it." Garret said as everyone else took a set and got comfortable.

Saren took a deep breath, "I guess that it is time that I come clean..."

Yes I know cliffhanger, but it is late and my eyes are starting to close. I promise that I will try to update every few days and not every 5 months. Hope you enjoyed!
