She pulled her Denali up to the road side of what looked to be a pretty empty, derelict neighbor hood. Most of the houses that lined the streets were boarded up – the place looked pretty run down. She took a look around and caught sight of the squad car not far ahead of her. Taking her kit from her side she stepped out and slammed the door locking up she headed towards the house.
"Hey Stevens" Sara greeted the office; Mark Stevens was not much more than a kid. The New guy to join LVPD and a great sense of humor, Sara felt safe around him – and was happy it was himself in stead of the Officer Davis who would repeatedly question her actions.
"Hey Sidle, no one got in there since I arrived so it's all yours" He smiled.
"Thanks… so, how's It looking?" She asked, as she stood opposite him now.
"B and E, something's off though" he explained, "I can't explain it. It looks staged, maybe, I don't know. You're the CSI…get on in there" he smirked with a wink.
"I'll take a look – you hanging around out here?" She asked with a slight smile, though he was a young office, himself and Sara got on okay. He was like a kid brother to her.
"Yeah" he nodded, Sara turned to leave but he stopped her, "oh and Sidle rumor has it that you and Sanders have a little something going on?" He smiled knowingly.
"Is that right?" She turned back, "And what else does rumor say?"
"Says that I'm heart broken" He sighed with mock dramatics.
"I bet you are" She shot back with a laugh, "You never know, rumors might not be true"
"One can only hope" He joked. He knew she and Greg were happy, hell he'd seen the two on occasion – and he couldn't be happier for her and the young male CSI. "Careful in there Sidle"
"Always am" She smiled back.

"Come on – did she tell you anything. Like how much she loves me?" Greg had been asking these questions for over an hour now and Catherine had no idea how to shut him up – she'd actually found herself wondering what it was that was keeping Sara with this guy.
"Greg I've told you – what Sara tells me isn't something I tell you – it's how it is" She explained. There had been many things Sara had told her in the past ranging from her fears to her hopes – they weren't something Catherine went around repeating. The two of them had formed a friendship over the past few months, a strong bond.
"Oh come on – she said I'm Sexy right? I'm Sweet? How about, charming?" He continued. He loved to tease Catherine, especially when the woman was forced to stay around like now – they were working on a case.
"Annoying?" Catherine offered
Greg looked up from the evidence he had been processing to see the blond, still continuing to work. "Your kidding right, Sara never said that?"
"No… I said that" Catherine smirked, and then she looked up – "Why - did I get you worried?"
"No…" Greg looked back down to the evidence, after a few moments he gave in, "Fine – yeah a little" he explained. Sure she'd got him worried, he still couldn't believe that someone like Sara was with him, never in his life had he dreamed someone like Sara- so kind, smart, beautiful – never would they be into him.
"Hey you two, you hared or seen Sara?"
Both looked to Grissom who was stood in the doorway.
"You sent her on the solo" Catherine explained, looking at Gil as if he'd gone mad.
"Yeah – I sent her there hours ago – she hasn't come back here" He explained.
"Have you called her?" Greg asked - neither of the senior CSI's missed the concern in his voice.
"Yeah… I have…" Grissom stepped further into the room, "I told her to keep it on" he mumbled then looked to Catherine – "She's not picking up the radio either"
Instantly Greg went into his pocket and lifted his mobile – he had no messages, no voicemail – instantly he rang her number only to receive the endless ringing. No answer until it went through to her own voice mail – "Hey babe it's me, when you get the message give me a call – let me know your okay. Love you" he cut it off.
"It's not like her" Catherine explained, as she stood.
"Okay…look I'll call brass to go run by the scene and check on her" Grissom replied to the worried looks from the other two and left to head for his office.
"Do you think she's okay?" Greg asked Catherine.
"Yeah, she's probably got no network connection is all" She tried to comfort though it felt to her like something had gone wrong.

Pulling his car to the side he saw Sara's Denali pulled up out front near the squad car – it was eerily still when he stepped from the car and onto the side walk. Something was off – he could sense it. Stepping out he made his way to the car – everything seemed normal there. Then he made his was towards the house, and that's were all normality ended – the officer lay surrounded by blood, the officer was dead.
