Title: Come Together

Disclaimer: I do not own CSI here or there, I do not own it anywhere! Not in a car, not in a train, not on a boat, not in a plane. I do not like green eggs and…Oh. Wrong story!


Catherine had gone home. After a call from Warrick assuring her he and the gang were alright, he had gone home for some much needed sleep. Her head had barely hit the pillow though, when her cell phone rang. She sighed and checked her caller ID. "CSI Dpt." She picked it up. "Willows," she mumbled. Judy, the receptionist, was sobbing on the other end. "Honey, what's wrong?" Catherine asked.

"E-e-eee," she managed to get out before bursting into tears.

Catherine sighed. "Do you need me to come down?"

"Ye-yes!" Judy sobbed. Catherine hung up. So much for sleeping.


"Hello? Hello, hello, hello?" Greg yelled into the walkie-talkie. He knew that the other walkie-talkie was on, but no one was answering. Maybe no one could answer. Images of Sara and Grissom's mangled bodies drenched in blood floated into his mind. He began to dry heave. In an instant Brass was by his side.

"Hey man, don't throw up on the crime scene," he joked uncertianly. Greg stopped, holding his stomach.

"I don't know what I'd do if we didn't find them in time," he whispered hoarsely. "Sara is one of my best friends. If we don't find them, I'll feel like I have failed her!" Upon uttering these words, he broke out in tears. Brass looked around, not knowing exactly what to do.

"Well Greggo, you need to start looking harder I guess. Don't give up now!" Jim said, patting the younger CSI on the back. Greg stood up and wiped away his tears just as Warrick came into the clearing looking shocked. In one hand was his cellphone. The other was clenching and unclenching.

"You guys aren't going to believe this!" He exclaimed. Nick walked up behind him.

"What's up?"

Warrick paused, looking at each man in turn. "Catherine just called from the crime lab," he said, taking another pause.

Greg piped up. "And?"

"And," Warrick began again, "Ecklie…he's dead." Everyone stared in shock. "Amelia Lane from days found him this morining after he didn't show up to work. They found him shot to death in his closet."


A/N: Sorry it is so short. I'm going to be gone for a week, so I will try and update when I get back!
