'How did they know that I was helping CSI.' J.J. thought.

J.J. was back at her house laying on her bed, staring into space through her glass roof. The beautiful night sky illuminated her dark room by the many stars and huge moon that stared back at her. Her face was lit by the sky as she tried to get to sleep. A heavy sigh escaped as she looked at the clock which read 5:30.

She had to get up to do her job at the diner in just two hours. And she hadn't slept a wink since the call from Al.

'Why didn't I tell them about it in the first place.' J.J. kept beating her self up.

The door to her room slowly creaked open, allowing some light to sneak into the big room. A girl around six peeked her head into the room. Her brown hair glowed from the light., brown eyes shifted back and forth. She walked over to the side of J.J.'s bed, white nightgown flowing behind her.

"What's wrong Ann?" J.J. sat up to face her.

"I keep having nightmares." the girl sobbed.

J.J. moved to the other side of her queen size bed. She patted the place where she had just been laying.

"Come here." J.J. quietly said.

Ann slid in and laid against J.J.. J.J. smiled when Ann fell asleep almost instantly. And she finally fell asleep. Only to make it seem like she had been asleep for two minutes instead of two hours when her alarm rang. Quickly she turned off the alarm, not wanting to wake Ann.

Once she got dressed and did her daily routines, her cell phone began to ring. The name on the screen showed Grissom. She turned it off not wanting to talk to Grissom. She knew he had nothing important to say. She sat outside on the steps to her house. J.J. stood up when a car pulled up into her driveway.

Grissom wandered why J.J. wasn't answering her phone. He left her a voice message. He wanted to know more about the pictures she drew. There were four faces, Eric's SUV, a white van, and a strange building. Then there was another piece of paper that had a bunch of writing on it. He couldn't read it. The letters were all scrambled up.

Grissom remember J.J. worked at the home cook diner on Ashley Ave. He decided to go down to the diner to see if she was working.

J.J. was busy scrubbing tables and washing dishes. All of a sudden images flashed into her head. 144 Taris (made it up) Street, Al talking to Conner, Tony, and Shane, Conner nodding before getting back into Eric's SUV. The images went away as fast as they came. J.J. lent on the door frame to the kitchen for support.

The person behind the counter, who was taking orders, told her that someone wanted to see her. Confused she slowly walked out the door. She rolled her eyes as she saw Grissom.

"Can I help you?" J.J. asked standing akimbo.

"The pictures you drew. On the last sheet of paper you wrote some scrambled words. What are they?" Grissom asked calmly.

"You unscramble them. I just might screw up again!" J.J. yelled.

"You didn't screw up. You didn't think that was why he was killing everyone." Grissom tried to calm her down.

"Mommy!" A little girl's voice yelled.

Ann ran up to J.J. and hugged her knees. She had a tear streaked face. Just walking in the door was Rachael holding the hand of a six year old boy, who looked almost exactly like Ann. He had short blonde hair, and light brown eyes. The boy let go of Rachael's hand and also ran to J.J.

"What's the matter Ann?" J.J. pulled the little girl off and bent down to wipe away her tears.

"I woke up this morning and you weren't there." Ann sniffled.

"Mommy?" Grissom raised his brow.
