At ten minutes to five the intercom buzzed. It was security. They told Vivian that two people from Las Vegas were requesting permission to meet with Malone.

She told them that they were expected and that she'd be down to meet them.

"Our guests arrive?"Jack asked with a smile.

Vivivan nodded. "I was just on my way to escort them. Do you want to come?"

Jack shook his head. "Go ahead. I'll catch Martin and Sam when they're done with the Palmer interagation. That way everybody will be here when they arrive."

Vivivan nodded. "I'll go get them."

"You okay?"Grissom asked as he rubbed the small of Sara's back.

Sara nodded as she placed the visitor's pass on her shirt. "I'm fine. I'm just trying not to remember why I'm here to thank them."

If she allowed herself Sara could still feel Caton's hands on her shoulders.

She could still feel his arm around her throat.

Grissom turned Sara to face him so he could look into her eyes. "They'll understand if you need to do this another day. We just got here we have all the time in the world."

Sara smiled and placed her right hand over his as she met his gaze. "I'm okay, really. I need to thank them. It'll be closure for me."

"Alright."Grissom replied. As he straightened he spotted Vivivan Johnson stepping out of an elevator.

"Dr. Grissom, Ms. Sidle."Vivivan greeted as she approached them right hand outstretched. "Dr. Grissom, it's good to see you again. Ms. Sidle, I'm Special Agent Vivivan Johnson."

Sara returned the older woman's smile as she shook her head. "Please call me Sara. It's nice to finally meet you."

Vivivan nodded. "I know you've had a long flight so let's go upstairs."

Sara and Grissom followed Vivivan into the elevators and the doors slid closed.
