Greed Chapter 2
As Calleigh, Natalia, and Walter collected the evidence from the house, Horatio headed outside to see for himself how strange Ryan was acting. Before Horatio even reached him, he could tell there was something very wrong. He didn't hear what the conversation was about, but Ryan seemed very upset about something.
"Whats going on, Mr. Wolfe?" Horatio asked as he approached. Ryan turned around and Horatio noticed his eyes seemed to have a bluish glow to them despite the fact that his eyes were brown.
"This guy is telling me to move the hummer," Ryan stated, simply.
"I'm sorry," said Horatio, confused. "I'm not sure I see how that would be a problem."
"I want to park here," said Ryan. "There is no reason why I should move. This is my spot."
"Are you feeling alright?" Horatio asked suddenly. The question seemed to take Ryan by surprise.
"Yes," Ryan replied. "Why? You want me to sit out during this case don't you? Well this is my case too and nobody is going to take it from me."
Ryan stormed off into the crime scene while Horatio watched him clearly worried. Frank walked up to Horatio noticing the look on his face.
"Whats wrong, Horatio?" Frank ask.
"I'm not sure yet," Horatio replied. "But I think Ryan and Jesse may be in trouble."
"What do you mean?"
"Our victims are not the only ones who are acting out of character," Horatio explained. "Jesse has been unusually tired lately, to the point that he is sleeping during the investigation. Just like our first victim who ended up sleeping on his couch because he was too tired to go up to his room."
"What's going on here, Horatio?" Frank asked, as his phone rang. He picked it up and looked at the message. "It looks like the police and Miami Dade National Bank picked up a guy trying to deposit 48 thousand dollars in cash. I wonder if that could be our vic's missing money."
"I would be willing to bet on it," said Horatio. "Lets meet him at the lab. Something tells me that he will be willing to admit that he killed our vic here, that is if he is anything like our past suspects."
"Yeah, but I still don't understand it, Horatio," said Frank. "Nobody admits to murder that easily. It's almost like someone is trying to make our job easier."
"Nobody ever tries to make our job easier," Horatio stated. "I think someone is trying to throw us off their trail. I believe someone is responsable for how our victims and subjects are acting and we are going to find them."
"How are we going to find them?"
"We follow the evidence, Frank. Sooner or later whoever is behind this is going to make a mistake and we will be there to find it."
