Thank you all for making time to read and review my story .

After the explosion

"Three of our friends are trapped in there , one is badly injured "

Then their heard an explosion and the house blow up ,with the three CSIs inside…

………

"No ! No , God !" Catherine fell to her knees , crying .Sara hugged Grissom tightly , tears falling from her eyes. They came here to save Greg from dying and now they had three deaths …it was horrible . That bastard had succeeded with his sick plan , that was for sure . He killed half of the team . They remained stunned , looking at the house that became the grave of Nick , Warrick and Greg . No one could survive that explosion . But hope , a little hope was still there in their hearts . The hope to see the three guys again .The fire was extinguished quickly .

The firefighters started digging into the dirt , to find the survivors .

"I found a body !" one of them yelled .

"Dead ?"

"Yeah … help me pull him out ."

Catherine ran there to see if it was one of them . Deep in her heart she wished it wasn't .Then she saw the dead guy was Wilder . She breathed in relief .

"Who is it ?" Grissom asked .

"Mike , " she answered "is Mike"

After another hour , one of the fire fighters found the body of Bobby Dawson , burned .

But they didn't find anyone from the team .Catherine and Sara started to look all over, to find anything that would prove the guys were alive .

They sat on a huge pile of mass , hoping that they will find something , anything .

"Help !" they heard a sound from under them .

"Warrick ?" Sara asked ."help us" she yelled to the fire fighters "we found a survivor "

After ten minutes of gigging , they finally uncovered the place where the boys were .

"Catherine , thank God ! Come on , you have to get Greg to a hospital quickly , his pulse is almost inexistent "

"Yeah . You two guys okay ? Nick ?"

"He's unconscious , he hit his head ."

"How about you ?"

"Fine , minor cuts on the arm , I'm better than those two "

"I'm so glad , Warrick ."

"Miss , we need to take this guys out , may we ?"

"Of course ."

The first was Greg , who looked horrible . His all body covered in deep cuts , blood , dirt …almost dead . but he was alive .

"May I go with him ?" Catherine asked the EMT .

"Yes , but hurry up , madam , we need to get him to the hospital ASAP"

The ambulance left in a matter of seconds after Catherine climbed in .

"Nick , are you okay ? Nicky ?" Sara asked .

"Come on , man wake up !" Warrick hold his hand .

"Rick ? Sara ? What the hell happened ?" he asked .

"Well , an explosion , you three were trapped inside " she said .

"Mr. Stokes , we have to get you to the hospital " a doctor said .

"Yes , of course"

"And Mr. Brown , you will came with us too , those wounds has to be cleaned"

"Okay."

………..

In Nick's ambulance

"War "

"Yes , Nick , what's wrong ?"

"Greg … is he alive"

"He was alive , barely, when they took him"

"Let's hope for the best "

……….

At the hospital , Sara , Catherine , Warrick and Grissom were waiting for someone to tell them something about their guys . Greg just entered in surgery , they made him a lot of transfusions before they operated him .And about Nick no one told them anything .

"I'll go take a coffee " Sara said ."you want something ?"

"One coffee for me , black"

"And another one for me , black too"

"Grissom ?"

"What ? A , yes , black"

Sara left to the cafeteria .

"What do you think ?" Catherine broke the silence "about our guys ?"

"Well , Nick is going to be okay , but Greg…he has a few chances to survive , you know " Grissom answered her .

"No , he will make it , he's to damn stubborn to give up !" Warrick laugh ."you remember that day , when you took his coffee ?? How nervous he was ?"

"Yeah , that was funny" the memory made them all to laugh .

"Or when you taught them how to print those mummy fingers ?" Catherine said .

"Or , you guys know how he failed his first proficiency ?"

"I don't remember really well …" Catherine said .

"He pee in the WC at the crime scene" Sara said , giving them the coffees .

They all laughed like the old times .

"So , you are thinking at the memories we have with Greg , huh ?"

"I have another one " Catherine said .

"What ?"

"The shower …" Sara blushed

"Grissom.." Sara whispered .

"Well it's funny , you two showered together …"

"Any one here for Nicholas Stokes ?"

"Yeah , how is he ?"

"Fine , just a mild concussion . "

"Can we see him ?"

"Not today , he's resting . Tomorrow "

"Okay , so Griss , one down , one to go" Warrick said .

………….

After other hours of waiting , they saw Greg's surgeon approaching them .

"You are here for Greg Sanders , right ?"

"Yes , how is he ?"

"Well ,,let's see what can say about your guy . Loss of blood caused hypothermia , we made him eleven transfusions . Hundreds of stitches all over his body , he had trails from cuts and whippings , he will have scars , this is for sure .

In his left shoulder a mess … his muscle destroyed , we had to rebuilt it all , but the bullet has gone out easily . In his right thigh the bullet cut the main artery , so here was the place where he lost the most blood . And not mentioning the fact he hadn't eaten anything for at least four days ….and some burns , 1st degree ."

"So how is he ?"

"I'm sorry , we lost him ….."
