"If your calling this number Miss Sidle, I take it you got the tape" a voice said on the other line.

Flashback:

Nick couldn't stop Sara from seeing the tape, as she took a seat, she tried her best to prepare for the worst. Her eyes couldn't believe what they were seeing, Grissom was covered in blood, being hung by his wrists on a hook. His right leg look in bad shape and there were so many cutes and scrapes on his face, he looked like he wasn't in any pain, but everyone watching knew that Grissom would try his best not to show his kidnappers weakness. "Grissom", whispered Sara as more tears began to form in her eyes. 'The blood and such things you see before you, were not caused by me, but a miss forutiate driving accident' a voice said. 'Sara Sidle, if you wish to keep him alive, than I suggest you call 702-555-3701.'

End Flashback

It had taken Sara almost an hour to make that phone call, but when she did she felt sick to her stomach. "I want to talk to Grissom...I need to know that he's still alive" she said into the phone, trying hard to keep her tears back. "Sara...Sara" whispered Grissom into the phone. "You see, he's still alive, but Sidle you didn't answer my question". "What question" asked Sara as she was begining to get confused.

"Weather or not you were ready to say goodbye, because by the looks of Gil here, I'm pretty sure he's ready. I mean he said he'd rather die of Cancer and its unfortunate that he won't be able to go back to the rainforest, but this is life". "Sara what's wrong?" asked Nick as he saw her drop the phone and look as if she'd seen a ghost.

Quickly Catherine picked up the phone and listened. "I'll take that long slience as a 'No' your not ready. That's your choice Sidle, we'll see how long Gil here can last while you think about it", with that Catherine heard a click on the phone. "Sara what's wrong...what did he say to you?" Nick asked as he lowered himself in front of her.

"I don't know how he could know those things...they were said in private" she whispered. "Sara is it possible he could've bugged yours or Grissom's place?" Nick asked. Shaking her head she lifted it to look at him, "We live together but it's possible" Nick looked towards Catherine who nodded her head, "Take Greg, your going to have to search the place. Let me know if you find anything"

"Cat, we found Grissom's vehicle, it's in pretty bad shape" Warrick said as he passed Nick and entered the lab. "Okay let's go check it out" she said. Sara too rose from her seat, "I'm going with you" she said. "Are you sure", Sara looked at Catherine, " I need to...I can't sit around hoping for something to come up...let's go we don't have a lot of time".

"This is quite the place that the two of them have here" said Greg as him and Nick entered the townhouse. "Remember we're looking for anything that could be used as a recording device. Sara said that the things that guy said on the tape we said in private between her and Gris so there has to be something here" Nick said as he began to look around.

"Nick I think I have something here...looks like this guy placed one in the phone" called Greg as he placed it in a bag. "I got one in the bedroom too" answered Nick, as he came out from around the corner. "Hey Nick, can I ask you something?" asked Greg. "What?" said Nick as he placed the 'bugs' in hsi kit. "Did you know that Grissom and Sara were together?". Dropping his head with a light chuckle, Nick smiled. "Greg, thier good at finding things...not hinding them. Come one let's get this back to the lab".

Please R/R..more to come very soon!
