Truth
"Don't lie to me , Nick"
"I am not lying …"
"Yes you are …ahhhh" he said .
"What is it ? Are you okay ?" Nick asked him , seeing his white face .
"Just … just a headache "
Greg's face frightened Nick . He looked so pale … clearly he wasn't feeling good .
"Now , let's show Greg what real pain means " Jonathan said taking Nick's gun in his hand "you know this gun , Nicky ? You know who's this gun , don't you ?" he said pressing it against Greg's shoulder ."you know that the most painful gunshot wound are those ones ? From close distance … let's see how much it hurts" he laugh pulling the trigger .
"AAhhhh !!!" Greg screamed .
The CSI were stunned . They saw the pain on his face , his eyes . And the blood draining from the wound .
"You…. Bastard ! You criminal !" Warrick yelled .
"You enjoyed this , guys don't you ?" Bobby laughed ."Wanna repeat the scene ?" he said , taking the gun from Mike's hand and putting it on Greg's leg ."this will hurts" he said , pulling the trigger .
This time the scream was louder , the pain was more intense . Bobby and Jonathan laughed .
He remembered the laugh . The excruciating pain in his shoulder and after that , in his leg . It was horrible . But the memories were coming back . And those weren't pleasant ones .
His mind became dizzy , the room was spinning . He heard Nick' voice , but he couldn't understand what he was saying .
"C'mon , let me help you " Nick tried to put him on a chair .
"Okay …" he whispered before falling to his knees and then fainting on the floor .
"Greg ? Greg !" Nick yelled .
Everybody in the room was stunned .
"Help me , why are you all staying like that ?" Nick yelled .
Warrick gave Nick a hand and they putted their younger friend on the couch .
"What the hell happened ?" Sara asked .
"I think …I think he remembered something " Catherine answered.
"Yeah … but I think he knows all about the kidnapping ."
"Oh , no , Grissom , don't say that … this is the last thing I want him to remember . I hoped the memories from that time were erased at all ."
"Yeah , me too ."
They heard a groan and turned to the place were Greg was .
"Hey , sleeping beauty . How are you feeling ?"
"Like crap . My head hurts bad ."
"Here , the doctor gave this to you . Some pills for the headache ."
"Thank , Catherine ."
"You're welcome , sweetie . You scared us all when you fainted ."
"Yeah , man …."
"You're still a liar , Nick"
"What ?"
"It wasn't an accident . I know all . "
"You remembered ?"
"Yeah …"
"All ?"
"I think so "
"You remembered us ?"
"No … just the torture …"
"Oh boy" Sara said .
"So , correct me if I'm wrong ."
"Alright . Speak ."
"I was at the crime scene …. That girl dead . I went upstairs to take evidences and I heard a gunshot . I went down and I was hit in the head . When I woke up I was in a room , my arms were tied to the ceiling of a room with chains …"
"Until now , is good"
"Then it was a first phone call … he called you … the whip …I was blindfolded … the pain was horrid …" he has shaking .
"Take it easy , Greg , no one's rushing you , okay ?"
"Alright . After that , he beat me several times and then left . I passed out ."
"So this explain the bruises ."
"Yeah . The next one , when I woke up he told me you're going to see me … not only to hear me … then he stabbed me " Greg closed his eyes as he remembered ."so you saw everything . This part was …. Horrible ….I couldn't stop the pain , it was worse every moment …"
"Oh Greg …" Catherine whispered .
"And when he let me make the call … I have told you all that I remembered , I think the amnesia started then …. Because is something I don't know … beside Bobby …who's Bobby ? The name just came into my mind …"
"Bobby is the guy that betrayed us "
"Ah … I remember telling you something about this Bobby …" his voice was trembling , his face became pale as he told his memories .
"Yeah , go on." Nick smiled .
"Fine , I remember only the gunshots and the blood draining on my arm … then everything became black ." they could see the pain in his eyes , the fear on his face .
"So , this is all you remember ."
"I think so ."
"You can't remember us ?"
"No , I still don't …"
"But why the hell you remembered Hodges ?"
"I dunno …it has to be a reason ." he smiled .
"Yeah . We are going to discover it soon . I promise ."
Greg leaned his head on the couch , looking at nothing , just thinking at the memories . Why the hell he remembered those horrible things ? Why he didn't remember his friends ? Those question will have an answer soon , he hoped .
