Disclaimer: If you'r feeling picky read the front page... The only thing I own is the character (Alyssa Crane) and her profil and backround. She is my creation. She is NOT a real CSI character... if they would like her... she comes witha fee P
Alyssa and Nick stood in front of the evidence table and slowly searched through the different articles. Swabbing, packaging and initialing everything she has collected. She slowly wondered in her head why people would intentionallyhurt other living beings. Don't be weak... you can't... be strong for these women… She thought as she sorted through a pair of knee highs.
"That hanging body was so decomposed, there are still large amount of skin on this girls stockings." She said sighing.
Nick nodded and opened the photos from the large folder. They worked in silence for 5 more minutes.
"Guys!" Alyssa jumped and faced The Intercom.
"Jesus…" she said a little too loud.
"No, the name's Greg but Thank you, I have your results, shall, I come to you?"
"That would be great Greg." Alyssa said re-composing her self.
"Coffee, I have a feeling it's gonna be a long night." He said sounding sympathetic.
"I'll love you forever thank you." Alyssa perked up a bit.
"Whoa, that's your fourth." Nick said in his southern twang. Alyssa shrugged.
"You Nick?" Greg asked.
"Please, Thanks." Nick thanked his friend.
"But that's your fourth." She teased as Nick shook his head and smirked as he said turning back to the matted cotton dress he was inspecting.
The intercom clicked and Greg was gone. Within minutes Greg was standing in the door way of the evidence room.
"Here you go ma'am." Greg smiled and placed a coffee cup on the table behind the pair.
"Yours is here too Nick." Greg said setting a second cup next to the first.
"Thanks man." Nick said not even looking up.
"So, our news my slave." She smiled and took a sip from her coffee and smiled at the guy infront of her. Setting it back down and walking back next to Nick,
"Your victim… well all three mother and two daughters." Greg said as a matter-of-factly
"What!" Alyssa said suddenly awake. She held her hand out for Greg to pass her the paper to read. He did so and she and Nick examined the contents on the white paper slowly.
"Warrant," Was all she said,
"Care to elaborate…English maby?" Greg asked clearly puzzled.
"Chances of this mother having a husband?" She said looking around. Nick caught on.
"You think?" He asked.
"Just a hunch, I don't think I can ask for a warrant can I?" She asked.
Nick shrugged, "Try, bring, it to brass…Greg 'bout the prints?" Nick asked.
"Nothing came up in AFIS." Greg said. "
Thanks you've been awesome. Can I have the paper with the print and I'll go hassle Brass." She said hanging the lab coat up.
"Nick you ok here?"
"Yea I'll grab your notes and finish up whatever is left, there's not much." Nick smiled at her and she returned it pulling off her gloves and ran her bare hand through her ponytail. She cringed when she came to the curls forming at the bottom.
"I'm off later guys." She said jogging slowly down the hall.
Reaching Brass' door she knocked softly. "Come in," Came a husky voice.
"Hey Brass," Alyssa smiled warmly. "I have a favor to ask of you." She said plopping in the chair across from him.
He raised his left brow and floded his hands infront of him. She had his full attention.
"Nick sent me… well it's for our case." She slowly explained. He nodded in recognition. She explained their findings.
"It'd be great if we could make it out tonight." She said somewhat pleadingly. He smiled.
"I'll see what I can do, I'll page you." He said holding out a note pad for the girl to write her number down on.
"You're awesome thank you!" She said and skipped out the door almost pumping into a familiar brown haired girl. "Hey Sara," She smiled and Sara returned her smiled.
"Heard you got a case," Sara said nodding. Alyssa smiled, "Yea,"
"Congrats." Sara smiled,
"Thanks, I'd love to talk but I have to get back." Alyssa said already taking off.
Sara waved and proceeded to Brass' office.
Alyssa walked in the evidence examining room only to find Nick packing up. "Damn done already?" She smiled putting gloves on to help him clean.
Nick laughed, "Upset?" He said playing along.
"Heart's broken, may never heel." She laughed softly and put the last of the remaining clothing in the bag. "Get the warrant?"
"Well I-" She was cut off.
"Yes She did." Brass said cutting in. Alyssa beamed.
"Road trip, you Tagging' along g Brass ole' boy?" Nick said pulling his own gloves off. Brass nodded.
"All over this case like a cheap suite." He said pocketing the warrant.
"That's the spirit." Alyssa said putting away the evidence and smirked. "Shall we gentlemen?"
"Already there," Nick said.
"Can I Drive?" Alyssa smirked devilishly.
Nick slowly turned a looked at her.
"OK How dangerous can I be!" She said letting her hands drop and hit her thighs.
Nick looked at Brass. "Let the girl drive, she's gotta be safer than Warrick." He gave in. Nick sighed and gave in too.
They all headed back to the Tahoe and Brass to his Taurus.
Alyssa drove along as Nick was telling her where to go and ever so often pointing out good local restraints and the usual hang outs and sites. Alyssa smiled taking Las Vegas in.
"So how do you like it so far?" He asked. Alyssa nodded slowly, a small smile forming on her face.
"It's sweet, totally different from home, New Jersey." She continued. "But nice and fast for all for 4 days I've actually been here," She glanced at him and smiled.
He smiled back.
"Are we coming close?" She asked anxious.
"We are ma'am." Nick said, "Go right here…and that's it right there." He pointed to large white house with green shutters.
Alyssa nodded and parked.
The trio exited their cars, the two CSIs had their kits in hand.They allmet at the foot of the paved drive way.
"Well, this is it," Brass said and faced the two standing before him.
"Think he'll co-operate?" Alyssa asked.
"Cross you're finger, chances are he knows why we're here and won't." Brass said crushing all hopes.
"Wonderful." Nick sighed and motioned for Brass to go first.
"Ladies first," Nick smiled.
They all headed to the front door.
