Chapter 2

Gil Grissom sat at his desk, fascinated by one of his bug collections, when his desk phone rang.

"Grissom…Okay Melanie, put him through…"

"Gil?"

"Yes Eddie, how can I help you?"

"Is Cath still at work?"

"She went out to pick up Linzi from school and drop her at the babysitters, why?"

"Well," Eddie swallowed hard. "Catherine was mean to drop her off at our Babysitter, Chloe's house at 3pm and then I pick her up after work at 5pm and then I look after her until Catherine gets of shift but when I went to Chloe's to pick up Linzi, Chloe told me she hadn't shown up today."

Gill was slightly concerned because as he had been fascinated with his bugs, he hadn't noticed 2 hours go by. "Okay Eddie, let me make some inquires and I'll get back to you soon okay?"

"Okay, thank you, but Gill; you don't think anything has happened do you?"

"Well Eddie, that's what I'm going to try and find out." Gill replied as he hung up the phone. He left his office and headed to find Nick.

He caught up with him a short time later in the computer lab.

"Nick," Grissom said walking through the door, "Catherine back yet?"

"No man, she went out to pick up Linzi, maybe she is stuck in traffic?"

"I don't think so," Gill said as he dialed Catherine's cell phone. No Answer. He looked at Nick again. "She never showed up at the Babysitters."

"Did you ring the school?" Nick said as he stood up, looking quite worried.

"I don't have the number."

Nick thought for a second and gasped as he rushed out of the computer lab with Gill close behind him. Nick ran to the locker room and yanked open Catherine's locker. He scanned his eyes down the inside of her locker door until he found what he was looking for. He read the number out to Grissom who punched it into his cell phone.

"Hello, Orchid Elementary School, how can I help you?"

"Hi, my name is Gill Grissom, from the Las Vegas Crime Lab. I was wondering if I could speak to Linzi Willows teacher please."

"Of course, one minute please…Hello, I'm Linzi Willows teacher, Miss Bailey; I understand you wanted to speak to me?"

"Yes, Did Catherine Willows pick up Linzi from school today?"

"No, Eddie's brother Jonathan did."

"Oh, that's okay, thank you very much for your help."

Gill hung up the phone and turned to Nick. "Get everyone in my office immediately please."

Nick nodded and left to round up the rest of the team and Brass. Grissom called Eddie and told him to get down to the precinct.

15 minutes later, everyone was huddled into Grissom's office, waiting for Gill to tell them what was going on.

"We have a situation," Gill began.

"Catherine went out earlier to pick up Linzi from school; however she never made it to the babysitters. When I rang the school to find out if she picked Linzi up, they told me that Eddie's brother picked Linzi up, however I happen to know that Eddie is an only child which leads me to believe that something bad has happened to both Catherine and Linzi."

Everyone in the office looked extremely worried, especially since Catherine was one of their own.

"So, what's the plan?" Sara asked bleakly.

"Well, Warrick, I want you to track down Catherine's car. Sara, go and trace Catherine's cell phone and see if you can get a location on her. Nick, head over to the school and check out their security camera's and see if you can find out who this guy pretending to be Eddie's brother is."

The Guys nodded and set to work. "Brass, take Eddie and get a statement from him and maybe pay Catherine's house a visit."

Grissom left his office, and bumped into Warrick in the hallway.

"Gris, I got a location on Cath's car."

"Okay, I'm coming with you."

They pulled up across the street from where Catherine's car was parked. Grissom started to look around the car, while Warrick stood lost in thought. Grissom noticed Warrick's face.

"Warrick? What are you thinking?"

"Well, Linzi finishes school at 2:30pm and Cath signed out of the Lab at 3:05pm. That leads me to believe that she was running late to pick up Linzi. We're right around the corner from Linzi's school, and if you were already late for picking up your kid, you wouldn't walk the whole way around the block…"

Grissom finished his sentence. "…you'd find the nearest shortcut."

Warrick and Grissom began to walk across the street to the alley. They carefully searched the alleyway.

"Gris, I got something." Warrick said as he held up Catherine's jacket. Grissom had also found something as he held up a white cloth with, to Grissom, what smelled like chloroform. Warrick searched Cath's jacket and found her keys, Cell phone, badge and near the cloth, Grissom recovered Catherine's gun. He looked grimly at Warrick, who replied, "Gris, what the hell has happened to her?"

"I don't know Warrick, but I know it's not good."

Catherine slowly opened her eyes and everything was dark and blurry. She tried to adjust her eyes, and then she saw something in front of her. 'Linzi!' she thought, 'oh my God.' She tried to move over to her daughter, but her hands and feet were bound tightly with cable ties. She didn't know where she was, but she knew she was moving. Linzi's eyes were still shut, and Catherine tried to whisper her name, but her mouth was also duck taped.

The driver of the van smirked, 'Don't worry Willows; your friends aren't going to find you anytime soon.' He thought as he passed a sign saying 'Welcome to Phoenix, Arizona."
