I don't own them - I don't know who does
This story came to me after watching "Body count" - I started thinking - what would have happened if the ending was different? What if the confrontation between Calleigh and Kerner went down a different way?
Please don't hate me for putting Calleigh through this and don't send me any hate mail - It was just something that went through my head. so don't shoot the messenger!!!

Calleigh woke up with a jolt, taking a second to realize where she was. Then she saw John Hagen sleeping peacefully on the chair and remembered that she stayed the night on the couch at the crime lab. She smiled as she looked at him sleeping there in the obviously uncomfortable chair - no matter how hard she protested, she had to admit that she felt flattered and even slightly touched that he was so adamant on protecting her. She didn't need it - but it was charming non-the less.
She got up and stretched on the way to the lab "Hey Cynthia! Got anything for me?" She greeted the young technician
"Yeah I got the analysis on your gun lubricant. It's a special brand, pretty old school. They don't sell this stuff at just any gun store"
"Yeah" Calleigh said thoughtfully, examining the results "And I know exactly where they do!"

John Hagen opened his eyes groggily about an hour later. All signs of tiredness were gone though, the second he noticed that Calleigh wasn't on the couch. For a moment, his paranoia took over and he started considering the possibility that Kerner had taken her, abducted her from right under his nose.
# Get a grip on your self John! This is a police station! Not even Kerner is dumb enough to come in her with all the cops and detectives roaming the halls #
He practically ran to the lab down the hall, asking everyone who crossed his path weather they had seen her.
"Calleigh Duquesne, have you seen her?" He asked as he got into the lab, still pulling on his jacket
"She came in about an hour ago" Cynthia replied
"What did she want?"
"Results on that substance you recovered. The gun slick brand"
"Where did she go?"
"I don't know. She took off like a bat out of hell"
Hagen sighed in frustration. For some reason he was getting a bad feeling about this.
*
Calleigh walked slowly through the isles of the gun shop, her gun was drawn and her eyes were fixed on the mirror - not loosing sight of Kerner's location.
She breathed deeply, calming herself and tried to walk as quietly as possible and not alert him to her presence. She had to look down for a moment to watch where she was going and not bump into and item that lay on the floor. It was only for a second, but when she looked back up to the mirror - Kerenr was gone from her line of sight.
*
Hagen was driving around in his car aimlessly. He had no idea where Calleigh went. He had no where to find her - instead, he was listening closely to the police scanner, hoping against hope to hear nothing.
But the call finally came
"All units, all units we have an officer down at Baker's gun shop at Lexington and Maple, multiple shots fired, suspect seen fleeing the scene, considered armed and dangerous"

Horatio was just watching as the cops were putting Stuart into the car when his phone range
"H, it's Speedle"
The sound of the young man's voice was enough for Horatio to know that something horrible has happened
"Speed what is it?"
"It's Calleigh, Kerner got to her H, he shot her H"
"Is she?." Horatio couldn't bring himself to utter the words
"They're on their way to the hospital, I don't know yet, but it doesn't look good!!!"
