Hellow! thanks so much for the reviews!
This next chappie is the longest I have written, and after reading it you probably will shoot me, but this has been the original almost ending of this fic, like it or not
enjoy
It was dark, there were no stars or clouds in the sky, the moon was hiding on the back of a mountain, it was quiet, there was no sound, just the wind and the cold atmosphere.
The street was quiet and abandon, it was full of empty warehouses, but the one in the corner was the one that stand out, it was gigantic, at first look your eyes couldn't reach the entire size without moving your head.
The quiet place was disturbed by the sound of cars and sirens approaching, it was three police cars, two big humvees and a black SUV
"Ok, this is it" shout Brass to the CSIs that were steping out of the SUV "I am going to the front door with four officers, five more are going to the back, we told you when you can enter" he turn and walked to the warehouse
"Why cant we go with them?" ask Nick
"Beacuse we are not police Nick" said Grissom looking at the movement in front of him.

20 minutes had pass since Brass and the police enter the warehouse, but for the CSIs it was an eternity, they spent that time sitting on the hood of the car, playing with the zipper of their jackets, looking for some stars in the sky, but that entire time the worry never left there faces.
5 minutes later Brass and a couple of officers step out of the warehouse, they reach the cars, whisperd to themselfs, and Brass walked to the team.
"We didnt find Brendon Cever" said Brass looking at each one of the team
"And the kids?" ask Catherine
Brass didnt say anything, he just stood there looking at Grissom, after a couple of seconds his head look at the floor and his right hand point to the warehouse.
As they saw this Warrick, Catherine, Nick and Sara leave the SUV, and run to the front door of the warehouse
"Wait, guys" shout Grissom "Whats the matter with them?" he said almost to himself
"They just waited enough, Gil" said Brass still looking at the floor
CSICSICSICSICSICSICSICSI
They open the front door and walk inside, it was dark, the first thing they saw was a big room full of chains, wood, and pieces of metal everywere, at the end were a couple of metal stairs that took to the next floor, and next to them was a large hall were one officer was walking out "There are two at the second floor and two more at the end of the hall, there are police officers with them, we are already calling for an ambulance" they nodded and he exit the warehouse
"So who is going to the hall?" ask Warrick
"Me and Sara" said Nick in a low voice
"How do you know?" said Catherine
"Didnt you notice how he looked at Sara?" he look at the hall "If Julie is there, Nathan is there"
"Ok, Catherine and I will go up" said Warrick puting his hand on Catherines waist
"Good luck" whisperd Nick "Sara?" he turn to her and notice she was shaking "Hey, you ok?"
"I saw him, how he looked at me" she whisperd "Julie is not alright" she look at Nick
"Lets just see for ourselfs, ok?" he said and she nodded, they walked hand in hand to the end of the hall.
CSICSICSICSICSICSICSICSICSI
As they reached the end of the hall they spot two officers standing at the end, they both look at the CSIs and at the floor "On the back of that desk" whisperd one
The room was big, there was no windows, just dust, and chains all over the place, and just in the middle of it, was a desk, a metal desk which make Nick shiver back of the desk he thought, he started walking to were the desk was, and as he moved his right hand he didnt feel anything in it, Sara wasn't with him, she was standing at the entrance of the room looking at him, still shaking, she is not coming he thought, he looked at her again and started walking to the back of the desk.
What he saw broke his heart
Nathan was lay down on the floor, with his back to the desk, his hair was a mess, and his face was full of bruises and blood, his legs… you couldnt see his legs, beacuse something was covering them, it was a body, it had his pants destroyed and covered on blood, his shirt was even worst and her hair, her hair Nick thought Oh no, Julie, his knees almost failed him, Nathan was hugging Jules body, her head was on the opposite side of were Nick was standing, and Nathans arms were hugging her from her waist.
Nick kneel down next to him "Nathan?"
The boy didnt answer, he doesnt even moved, but you could see that he was shaking, and by the small sounds that he was making, you could hear that he was sobbing
"Nathan?" ask Nick again, steping more closely
The boy turn his face to the man that was calling his name "I failed her" he whisperd
Nick step more closed to the sobbing boy
"I was supposed to protect her, to be with her, to take care of her" he took a deep breath and hold her closely
As he heard this Nick look at Jules body, he took the hair that was on the middle of her face to her right side to see her, Dami it, she is identical as Sara she was so pale, her eyes were closed, her lips match with the color of her face and she had a big bruise on her right cheek, her arms were one on each side, her legs were straight, on top of Nathans, and her chest… she had blood all over it, but if you watch closer you could see the at least three bullet wounds.
Nathan saw how Nick was watching very closely at her, so his hold became stronger
"Nathan… I… I am…" he sigh, Nick couldnt even said a word, his sadness was so big on him, he couldnt stop looking at Jules face, he thought that when they found the kids, they were going to be happy and safe, and that they were going to have a good laugh as they know each other, and that that wasent going to be the last time they saw them, but Nicks heart was broke as he look at Nathans sad face and at what his arms were holding.
He was sad and feeled empty, but he knew that the boy had to be worst, Nathan, his twin, had just lost his best friend, and he had to be strong for him.
"Nathan" he said again with a low voice, the boy look at him, Nick took a deep breth
"Im Nick Stokes, Im with the crime lab, we were looking for you" the boy look at Julie "I am so sorry for your lost" Nathan look at Nick and he could see that his eyes were starting to glow and get watery "I know that you said to Julie that you would always take care of her, protect her and make her happy, and she will always thank you for that"
"How do you know that?" whisperd Nathan still sobbing "Look how she is now" he buried his face with her hair "Even if I said all of those things to her, I never told her the most important and true of all" he look at her again "That I loved her" he whisperd "I love her so much, more than a friend, more than… than…" he buried his face again and start crying "She was everything to me" he said between sobs "My best friend, my support, my companion, my best mate" he look at her "And I never get to tell her how much I loved her" he look at Nick with tears on his face
"I have a friend, that is just like Julie" Nick look at Sara that was standing in a corner of the room with her arms cross and tears on her face, Nick took a deep breath and return to look at Nathan "She is my best friend too, I care about her so much that I will give anything I have for her, she has been always there for me, and she has giving me support when I most needed it, and I love her so much" he looked again at Sara but this time different, he looked at her with eyes full of feeling that if you look hardly you could see love, he turn to Nathan again "And you know what Nate, I have never told her that" he looked directly into the boys eyes
"You should, before its to late" said Nathan and he took a deep breath and begin to stroke Julies hair, just as he always do
"The ambulance will be here soon, you want me to wait with you?" ask Nick wiping his tears, the boy just nodded, Nick step closer to him, he tooks Julies right hand and begin to form circules with his thumb "She likes that" said Nathan looking at Nick "My friend likes it too" said Nick looking at him

Catherine and Warrick reach the second floor, it was dark, the walls were of cement, that made the room cold, there was nothing more than a chair and a broke lamp in the room but what stand out was big crack at the end.
Two officers were standing at the two sides of the crack, as they spot them they moved and directed them to the interior of the crack, they both look at each other and walked through it guiding them to another room, this one was larger, the roof was unbalanced, first was short, then tall and then more taller, there were parts of machines all over the place, the atmosphere was colder, and the low light wasnt helping.
They walked a couple of steps straight to a big machine, it was large, and look very heavy, but what it took thier atention was a small drop of liquid on the left side of the machine, they walked to were it was and saw another one, they follow it, and find another one, they continue like that until the drops took them to were it came from, CHRIS.
They turn around one of the machines and saw Chris laying on the floor covered in blood
"Oh my God" said Catherine "Chris... Chris?" she shook him
"No" said Warrick opening Chris shirt and revealing two bullet holes "No, this can be" whisperd Warrick "He is gone"
Catherine put his head on her lap and started crying "He was so young" she said stroking his hair "Where is Beth?" she said in a low voice
"I dont know" said Warrick "Iill find her" he reach Catherine and give her a kiss in her forehead, he stood up and begin to walk to the front machine
It was just like the other one, same size and same color, he walked to the other side of it and spot a small figure in the floor, he walked more closer and he could see that it was more bigger then he thought, he walked faster and he could see it more clearly.
It was Beth, she was laying on the floor, full of bruises, her hair wasnt blonde anymore it was dark brown, she was laying on her left side, the right arm in front and the left one on her back, clearly you could see that it was dislocated, something was on top of her legs, it look like a piece of metal and it was heavy.
Warrick kneel close to her back and try to move the metal piece, but as he knew it was to heavy, he rest a couple of seconds and when he was going to try again, she move.
At her movement, Warrick react steping in front of her, and he could see that she was alive.
"Beth" said Warrick in a low voice "You ok?" stupid question Warrick he thought
"Chris" she whisperd "You came" she reach her right hand and touch his
Warrick looked at her confused for a second but then he knew she thinks I am Chris, he took a deep breath, he knew what he have to do
"Yeah, Im here Beth" he reach his left hand and stroke her hair
"I always knew you will never leave me" her voice was low each time she talk "Can I ask you a question?"
"Anything" he said
"Even if you are still Mias boyfriend, do you ever loved me?" she said with tears on her eyes
He, took a deep breath and look at were Catherine was, she was still with Chris, stroking his hair, and by the looks of how she move, he could see that she was sobbing, but it didnt matter how sad she was, she look very beautiful even in the low light.
He looked at Beth, and he closed the space that was between them until they were face to face "Beth you have been always the girl in my mind, even if I am with someone else, I am always thinking of you, and I admit that I get really jealous when a guy talked to you" he smile "I love you Beth, I just wish a told you sooner" he reach her face and kiss her in the cheek
"I love you too" she said looking at him "Hey Chris, since when your eyes are green?" she smile
The warm atmosphere was broken, from a cry of pain that Beth made
"My back hurts, I cant feel my legs, and I feel that I am cut in two parts" she cried
"Try not to move, the ambulance will be here soon" he continue stroking her hair "I wait with you ok?"
"I am not going to make it" she whisperd
"You dont know that, your strong, you can make it, just dont give up so soon" he whisperd to her
"Im tierd, but Im afraid that if I close my eyes, I will never open them" she sob
"Its ok, I will be here" he took her hand and kiss it, then she closed her eyes.
In that moment Warrick felt that the girl that was touching wasnt there anymore

Outside, Brass told Grissom what he found
"Nathan and Julie are in the end of a hall, Julie is dead she has gun shots on her stomach and chest, Nathan is very shocked, I saw that he have bruises on his face he might need medical asistance, Chris and Beth are on the second level, Chris is dead he was shot in the chest, and Beth, she has a part of a machine on top of her legs, making pressure, she might not make it"
As Grissom heard this his mind think on how much his team were going through, seeing the kids face to face dead, and that they looked so much as the person that thay have been working for more than six years, it was very shocking and upseting.
Grissom just wish he was strong enough to help them get though this.
Two ambulance came and stopped in front of the warehouse, with three paramedics walking out from each.
It passed twenty minutes before they started to came out, first was two paramedics carrying a black bag, Sara was walking on the side, it was carried to a black van, probably corners, then other two were carrying Nathan on a stretcher, he looked like there was nothing more on the world to live for, but he was alive, Nick was walking beside him, five more minutes Catherine step out walking to the corners van opening the door, she had trails of black lines down her eyes, she had definitively been crying, another black bag was been carrying to the van, it took five more minutes to see the last one been carried for one paramedic and Warrick to the van.
Ten minutes later and the only thing that was on the street was the black CSIs SUV.
Ok, I know, you want to shoot me, but before you do that please review!
