I forgot this in the prologue. I do not own CSI. Though i do own Auggie and the McCarty's.

Last time

"Mommy!" yelled a little girl around the age of four or five. She woke just moments ago by the sound of banging and yelling from down stairs. No sooner did she finish yelling did the door banged open revealing her mother.

"Auggie! Get in the closet and don't come out till I come for you." Her mother said panic and fear lacing her voice as she bustled her only daughter into the closet. "I love you don't forget that." She closed the door in time to turn around and meet her untimely death.

Chapter 1: The Crime Scene

"Gil." Jim Brass, a former homicide detective , greeted as they entered the house.

"Jim. What do we got?" Grissom, a forty year old man with dark brown hair and electric blue eyes asked.

"Intruder broke in to the McCarty's house where he saw Mr. McCarty. They fought. The ruckus must have alerted Mrs. McCarty because she was found in a room upstairs."

"Thanks, Nicky grab your kit we're processing the scene upstairs. Catherine , Warrick..."

"Process the body and the fight down stairs. Got it Gris." The strawberry blonde Catherine Willows said grabbing Warrick and leading him to the living room where the husband s body was.

Going up the stairs Grissom hugged the wall as the signs of the struggle Mrs. McCarty had going up the stairs.

She still could hear the last words her husband said to her. "GO! Go Hide!" he yelled to her. Stumbling and falling she went up the stairs looking over her shoulder as she went. Seeing no exit she ran into the room where she met her untimely death.

Entering the room they could see where the blood spattered from the shots.

"Take notes for me Nicky. Two gunshot wounds shot at point blank to five feet away. One shot entered the right temporal lobe and the other the middle of the nose. Most likely shattering the cartilage where the fragments lodged into the brain. Blood spattered on the ..." But something stopped Grissom. Where the There! It was a quiet whimper. Like a child. Pinpointing the noise, Grissom cautiously walked over to the closet making Nick draw his gun. Slowly opening the door Grissom saw a scared five year old run out and hug his legs.

Carefully Grissom Picked up the child and attempted to calm the little girl with no avail. Seeing that Grissom was failing Nick gave him the camera, took the little girl into his arms. It took a few minutes but Nicky got her to calm down. Grissom looked at him in awe.

"Uncle Nicky was a very popular babysitter before he moved to Vegas." Nick said rocking the little girl.

"Can you tell me your name sweetie?" Nick asked.

"A-A-Auggie McCarty." Auggie stuttered out.

"Well, Auggie, what were you doing in the closet?" Gil asked

"Mommy put me in the closet and to stay there till she got me."

"Okay Auggie, I m going to take you down stairs and introduce you to a nice police officer. You'll stay with him till we re done up here." Gil said taking Auggie again, making sure she didn't see her mother(no one should see their loved ones that way) and taking her down stairs to meet Brass at the door way. ( They still hadn't removed her father's body yet)

"Auggie this is Captain Jim Brass. Jim this is August Auggie McCarty. Could you watch her till we finish processing the crime scene?" Gil asked.

"Of course. Why don t we meet you at the lab?" Jim asked

"Alright. We ll meet you there. Take Nick with you. Sara's here to help." Gil said handing Auggie over but she tightened her grip on Grissom. He sighed and rubbed her back gently.

"Hey Poncho! You re heading back to the lab with Brass! Take the evidence that you collected with you!" Grissom hollered up the stairs.

A minute later Nick came down the stairs with his kit in hand. (The evidence was in the kit.) This time Gil tried to hand Auggie to Nick and she cooperated. Setting his kit down Nicky rocked her gently sending her into a light slumber. Nicky smiled gently down at the sleeping form in his arms. Making sure he had a good grip on Auggie he bent down and picked up his kit again.

"I'll see you back at the station, Gris." Nick said before heading to the Taurus. Buckling Auggie into the back and putting his coat around her he headed off to the lab. Noticing that Auggie still hadn't woken up yet Nicky gently lifted her from the SUV along with his kit and settled her on the couch in Grissom's office while he went to drop the samples that he go to Greg.

Nick had to give a husky chuckle when he saw their local lab Geek rocking out with his monster mask and a rubber glove on his head. This wasn't the first time that they have found Greg rocking out like this and it most certainly won't be the last.

"Greg," Nick called, no answer

"Greg!" Still no answer so he turned down the music and tried one more time.

"Greg!"

"Oh! Hi Nick. What can I do for you tonight?" Greg Sanders a spiked hair twenty three year old asked.
"I need you to run these samples for me, Ashton Buck." Nick said handing over the samples. "There's more coming when the gang comes back."

"Why were you sent back? Didn t get into trouble did you?" Greg asked, raising an eyebrow.

"No the victim's daughter is still alive and needs someone to watch after her. She will only let Grissom and me hold her." Nick explained before walking out.

A/N I hate them too. Sorry about the short chapter's. I'm taking the chapters from the document that i'm writing this in and it's hard to say where to end a chapter. If there is any mistakes left it's because i used notepad to transfer the chapter.
