Author's Note: Well I'm back after ZOOMTOWN TURNED OFF OUR INTERNET! Since we supposedly "downloaded illegal movies." I hate you, Zoomtown. But now we have our internet back. Yay. Read on, my friends.
We walk softly down the stairs about ten steps behind Miley and Lindsey, who are frantically running down them. They get to the bottom of the stairs when Catherine steps on something plastic. A loud crunch fills the strangely quiet air.
"What was that?" I hear Lindsey whisper to Miley.
"What the hell are we-?"
"Just stand still and hold your breath, Gil."
"But we have glowing-"
"STAND." Whoa, down Catherine. Ok. So I follow Catherine's lead and stand completely still. Miley and Lindsey look up towards us.
"Hmm… must have been from somewhere else." Miley whispers and the both head off to the left. I breathe a sigh of relief.
"How come they didn't see us?" I ask in confusion.
"The lights on our guns and shields turn off after twenty seconds of not being moved. To save battery power."
"Ahh, you just know everything, don't you?" I ask sarcastically and Catherine nods.
"Come on, let's go." We walk softly down the stairs and watch as Miley and Lindsey thread through the walls, looking for us. We reach the bottom step and Catherine giggles with delight like a little girl.
"We are so gonna get them." She grins and rubs her hands together.
"Ok, that was a little scary." I say.
"Really? Maybe I should have done that to Greg."
"No, I think what you did had the, er, desired effect." I say and she grins. We start walking towards where Lindsey and Miley were heading, and soon spot them.
"There they-" I stop short as Catherine shoves me behind the wall, knocking me onto my knees. "Ow! This is not the time to be attacking me!"
"Shh! Sara's behind us!"
"Oh, Catherine, Gris… I know you're over there!" We hear from behind the wall.
"She's probably trying to get us back for getting Greg!" I exclaim softly.
"Go!" Catherine pushes me onto my hands and knees and we crawl in between the walls.
"Don't be shy…." We hear from behind us.
"Forget about you being scary." I say to Catherine. I peek around the other side of the wall and stop short. Catherine runs into me.
"Ow! Why'd you stop?"
"Greg. They're two-timing us!" I exclaim angrily.
"Oh, it's definitely on now." Catherine pulls on my shirt and motions for me to turn around. We get up and start walking slowly the other way, our backs to the walls. Greg peeks his head around the corner just as we're at the end of the wall.
"Holy sh-" Catherine yells but covers her mouth as Greg's head shows up centimeters away from her face.
"We've got you now." Greg says evilly and rubs his hands together. Oh crap.
"Ok, ok. We surrender." Catherine walks out into the middle of the isle and throws her hands up. I follow her. I see her flip open her cell phone and type something. "You've got us." I read her cell as she positions it towards me. When I cough, run. Oh, great plan, Cath. Just then she coughs and looks at me.
"Go!" I yell and we run down the isles, zig zagging our way through them. I laugh as I hear Greg and Sara shout at each other behind us.
"Why didn't you grab them?"
"Who do you think I am, Superman?" Greg shouts back. I laugh again. We turn the corner and run back up the steps when a voice comes over the speakers.
"Dudes and dudes' kids, you have three minutes left in your session." Greg number two says over the speakers. "If you get shot from now on, your shields will not turn back on. Last dudes standing win!"
"Ok, let's hustle." Catherine says. Hustle? I'll ask her about that one later. We run softly around the floor, looking for Lindsey and Miley.
"There!" Catherine whispers softly and tackles me, shoving me behind a wall onto the ground.
"Ow! This is not football!" I yell at her. She shoves her hand over my mouth.
"Shush! They're around the corner on the other side of the wall!" I sit up and grin.
"Let's get 'em." I say. We get up softly and round the corner. Lindsey and Miley are standing there, their backs to us. We walk up slowly and…
"YES!" Catherine shouts in victory as we shoot their targets. Lindsey and Miley turn around.
"What? Aww man!" Lindsey says. I grin at her.
"We got you, we got you." Catherine sings as she dances around them.
"Mom, you're crazy!" Lindsey exclaims as Catherine continues to shout in victory.
"We may be crazy, but we got you!" Catherine shouts. "Ok well, gotta go, see ya, bye!" We both run the other way in search of Nick, Warrick, Sara, and Greg. I see Sara out of the corner of my eye and shoot at her target.
"Oh yeah!" Catherine shouts and we slap hi-fives as Sara looks around to see who hit her target.
"GRISSOM!" She yells angrily. Uh oh, time to go. We run the other way as we hear Sara yell for Greg. I turn around and look as Catherine swings around and shoots Greg's target.
"Woo hoo!" Catherine yells and we start running again. Greg sinks onto his knees in defeat.
"Nooooo!" He yells behind us as Catherine throws her head up and laughs.
"Warrick and Nick at 2 o'clock!" Catherine yells and we dive behind a wall. Nick and Warrick turn around.
"Did you just hear Cath yell?" Warrick asks.
"Yep." Nick replies.
"Oh crap." Catherine says. We crawl on the floor as we hear Nick and Warrick walking closer towards us. Catherine pops up and shoots their targets through a hole in the wall
"HAHA! YES! GIL WE WON!" Nick and Warrick look down at their targets.
"Damnit!" They both yell. I grin and Catherine pulls me to her. She kisses me in victory.
"Maybe we should play laser tag more often." I say and she grins. The buzzer sounds through the speakers.
"Damn, you guys got us good." Warrick says to us.
"All in a day's work, Warrick." I say and he rolls his eyes. I laugh as we head down the steps.
"Great game, dudes! Catherine and Grissom, you are the winners!" Greg number two shouts. Catherine raises her hands in victory.
"Thank you, thank you very much." She says and everyone laughs.
"Now the question is who really did better? Catherine or the amazing shooter Grissom?" Sara asked and grinned.
"Well, I personally think that I did better." I say jokingly to Catherine.
"Oh really?" She places her hands on her hips. "You're gonna get it now!"
"Uh oh." I say and run back into the arena, Catherine following me close behind.
