Sara walked up to the garage, she pulled out the origami paper and double-checked the address, she was at the right place. She prepared to head inside when her phone rang.

"Gil?" She answered, Grissom spoke quickly, "Sara, Agent Norman Jayden from the FBI is here, he's helping us out as much as possible, if you have any difficulty with the trials...you can call him for advice."

Sara breathed a sigh of relief, "Great, thanks."

After taking note of Jayden's number she headed inside and pulled out the ticket before heading up to the counter. The man behind the counter looked up surprised and put his newspaper aside.

"Can I help you Miss?" He asked, Sara held out the ticket. "I'm here to pick up this car, a friend left it here for me."

The man read the ticket and nodded, "Ah yes, he brought the car in yesterday, here's the key, it's down in the garage."

Sara thanked the man and took the key before taking the elevator down to the garage. She stepped out and saw the multitude of cars, she sighed and used the fob to find the car, it's lights flashing as it unlocked. She hurried into it and closed the door. Once inside she looked around, but was lost, she had no idea what to do next.

She sighed and pulled out her phone, she quickly called Agent Jayden.

"Miss Sidle?" He replied, Sara explained her problem, "I'm doing the first trial, I'm in the car, I don't know what to do next."

"Check the driver's side door; there should be a GPS in it, that'll give you directions."

Sara thanked him, hung up and pulled out the GPS; she fixed it in place and then turned it on. It began giving her directions and she drove out of the garage, following them. Eventually the directions stopped and Sara stopped the car, she was sitting on a ramp leading onto the freeway. However this ramp led into the oncoming lane, suddenly the GPS spoke.

"You have reached your destination. Are you prepared to show courage to save your child? You must drive your vehicle against the traffic and travel five miles in five minutes, the time will start, the moment you drive down to the freeway."

Sara stared wide-eyed at the GPS.

'What, that's crazy...No, I can't think like that, I have to do it, for Holly.'

Sara took a deep breath, made sure she was fastened in securely and then hit the gas. The clock stated ticking, counting down from five minutes as she drove.

She knew that to drive five miles in five minutes she'd have to at least consistently do sixty. As she drove she weaved between the oncoming traffic, several times she only missed the other vehicle narrowly.

"Come on," She hissed through her teeth. She pushed the car as hard as she could.

Suddenly she saw a large semi approaching and swerved hard to avoid it, she over steered and the car started to skid.

"Crap, crap!" She tried to correct and luckily managed to save the car.

She kept going, her heart pounding from the near miss.

"You still have four miles to go, to reach your destination." The GPS said.

Sara forced herself to keep going, she had to hurry. Sure enough, before long she had gone through two miles and then three. Suddenly she found that the main lanes were blocked by traffic, all heading straight for her. She swerved into the hard shoulder, scarping along the median before passing the vehicles and weaving back into the centre of the road.

'Way too close.'

She quickly checked the GPS and continued to drive as fast as she could; finally she heard it, words that gave her hope.

"You still have one mile to go, to reach your destination."

She managed a small smile.

'Nearly there, c'mon, I can do this…' She thought to herself, she glanced at the GPS again, 'Still got two minutes left, I can make it.'

However at that moment she found two large semis approaching.

"Fuck, fuck!" She yelled as she tried to swerve out the way. The car skidded and she tried to correct but sadly overcorrected. The car spun before launching itself through the air and crashing next to the freeway, upside down.

Sara groaned in pain as she recovered from the crash, she then realized that the car had flipped.

'No, now how am I supposed to…' He despair was cut short however when the GPS spoke, "You have reached your destination, please press the screen."

Sara was shocked, she had made it. Ignoring the pain she reached out and touched the screen.

"Your reward is in the glove compartment, the key is inside the GPS."

Sara immediately took the GPS and smashed it to pieces; she picked up the key and opened the glove compartment. The phone memory card inside fell out, she picked it up, pocketed it and then struggled to undo her seatbelt. She then smelled smoke, the car was on fire. She struggled again and managed to undo her seatbelt. She collapsed painfully before recovering, as it was undamaged she kicked open the front passenger door, although it took a few tries. Finally she crawled out of the car and hurried away as fast as she could. Ignoring the pain she took out the cell phone and memory card and plugged it in, she was once again subjected to a video of Holly in the well, the water level was getting higher and Holly was more panicked. The hangman appeared and suddenly some of the letters for the address appeared.

Groaning in pain as the screen went blank she pocketed the phone and hurried away as fast as she could, heading back home.

When she made it back she found Grissom waiting for her.

"Sara," He hurried towards her when he saw her, she managed a weak smile, "I did it, I got through the first trial."

Grissom nodded and lead her through to the kitchen; he then got their medical supplies.

"Gil I…" Sara began but he shook his head, "We need to at least clean that cut before you go back out."

Sara sighed and nodded, while Grissom cleaned and disinfected the cut on her forehead she told him about the trial and how she was sure she had broken at least two ribs. After cleaning the cut and swallowing some painkillers Sara turned back to the origami figures. She took a deep breath and opened the second one, which was shaped like a butterfly. She read the trial, it read;

Are you prepared to suffer in order to save your child?

Sara collected herself and, with a nod of reassurance to Grissom, pocketed the paper and headed out, this time she had to take her own car due to the distance to the address, she drove to the trial location, desperate to complete it and save her daughter.
