Chapter Forty One: Consequences

New York City

Only a few hours had passed since she had arrived in New York. Night now consumed the city and she imagined that tonight the streets of New York would be quiet for once. Mac, Stella, and Danny would have already arrived in New York, and soon things would go back to normal for them. They would be working as CSI investigators again, arresting murderers and putting them in jail where they belonged. She, on the other hand, would be in jail for the rest of her life, watching those murderers get thrown into jail cells. Her life wouldn't go back to normal; it wouldn't ever be able to.

She sat in the corner of her jail cell, shivering from the cold. She already hated her first night of jail; she was homesick and missed Danny. She knew he would miss her too, but even that didn't comfort her. He would at least be able to live his life contentedly. She would not.

She cried herself to sleep that night, like she had done when she had figured out about her double identity. But she didn't wonder who she was anymore; she did know her true identity. Though she didn't like what she had done as Paige, she knew she had to accept the fact that there was no way of getting out. She was Paige Hobson and she had murdered someone, and she would stay in jail for the rest of her life. She deserved her punishment and that was it. No one needed to save her; nothing else had to be said. In jail she was, and in jail she would stay.

The next and final installment of the Rising Storm series is Finding Truth! It should be up either Wednesday or Thursday!
