Chapter 2

"Is he okay?" asked Sue as her and Jack were driving towards the scene where D was shot. Jack shrugged.

"He was shot while getting out of his car at his house, by a car going by. He was taken to the hospital. I don't really know much about it yet." Said Jack as they speeded towards D's house. Sue sank down into her seat and took a deep breath. Dimitrius, an FBI agent, shot at his own house.

"I just… I can't believe it." Said Sue. "So you think was personal?" asked Sue. Jack once again shrugged.

"I really don't know. We'll just have to talk to the bystanders and D's wife. Maybe they saw something." Said Jack as they turned the corner. 10 minutes later they were driving down a road right outside the busy streets of DC. As they closed into D's house, they could see the crime scene tape and police car lights. Sue watched as Jack took a deep breath and showed his badge out the window to an officer standing guard. Sue could see the many bystanders standing outside the tape watching the police at work.

Jack parked and they both exited the vehicle. Sue grabbed Levi and exited the car.

"Crime scene done?" asked Jack. An officer who was watching over the working C.S.I.'s came over to meet them.

"Almost. Not much here at the house, it was a drive by." Said the officer. "Just pools of blood and acceleration marks on the road." He pointed over to where the front of the driveway was.

"Where is his wife?" asked Jack. The officer pointed over where a tree was looming over the yard. Tara and Bobby were already over there talking to her.

"Thanks." Said Jack. Sue quickly followed as they made their way over to the group. Tara and D's wife were leaving the group and getting into Tara's car.

"Where are they going?" asked Sue. Bobby came over.

"Hospital." Said Bobby simply. He stopped in front of Jack.

"How did this happen?" asked Jack. Bobby drew in a breath and ran his hand through his hair.

"Drive by, no witnesses except for the wife, who heard the shots and the car accelerating off. Some other neighbours also came out after the noise." Said Bobby.

"How is he?" asked Sue worriedly.

"We don't know." Said Bobby. "He was shot in the stomach and the shoulder. He was alive when the paramedics got here. We were just arriving when the paramedics were packing him up." He pointed over at the crime scene investigators.

"Anything substantial?" Bobby asked. Sue looked over at the crime scene.

"Well, the officer didn't really say much." Said Sue. She looked over at Jack and then he began to walk over to the C.S.I.'s that were now clambering out from underneath the tape.

"Excuse me." Called Jack. The man in front looked over at him.

"Agent Hudson, Manning." Said the man. Jack nodded.

"Dr. Keller." Replied Jack.

"Who's this? I've seen you around." Said the investigator.

"Sue Thomas." She replied holding out her hand. The doctor put up his gloved hands.

"Sorry." Replied Sue.

"Find anything?" asked Jack. The man looked over at the scene and then to his silver case which he held. They were interupted by Myles.

"Jack, I need you for a second." He yelled. Jack gave a smile before leaving Sue and Bobby to talk to the Doctor.

"Pools of blood, most likely from the victim, but we also found something else." He said. He put his hand in the air. "Hey Jessie!" he yelled. A young woman with bright red hair came over.

"What?" she asked.

"Show them the letter." Said Dr. Keller. Jessie fumbled with her case and retrieved a plastic evidence bag from her case.

"The letter?" asked Bobby. Jessie stood from her case and handed Bobby the letter. Sue watched as Bobby read the letter. His eyes widening as he read it.

"I thought this was a drive by." He said. Dr. Keller nodded.

"It was according to all the eye witnesses here." He answered.

"Then how did this get here?" asked Bobby as he held up the letter. The doctor shrugged.

"That I don't know." He said. "Maybe someone got out of the car."

"Where was it found?" asked Bobby. The doctor pointed to D's car.

"The front seat." Said Dr. Keller. Sue instantly put her hand up.

"What does the letter say?" asked Sue. They were interuppted when Jack came back. Bobby instantly cleared his throat.

"Jack, there is something you need to see." Said Bobby. Jack looked at the letter that was in Bobby's hands and then he took it from him. He flattened the letter out in front of him and began to read. Instantly his eyes widened and his arms began to shake.

"Oh my…" Jack said as he read the letter over.

"Jack?" asked Sue. Levi began to paw at the ground. Jack looked up from the letter and then over at Bobby. He covered his mouth with his hand.

"What is it?" asked Sue more sternly. Jack gave a cough.

"It's a letter," he said, "a letter addressed to me."
