Chapter two: Cool Change
The fellow Night Gil Grissom walks into the break room and looks at Catherine, Nick and Destiny. Gil Grissom's see that all of the CSI looks tired and all of them are drinking large cups of coffee. He also notices that Destiny's has her wrist brace off and is icing her right wrist, which is a little swollen. Destiny's notices that Grissom has came into the break room and hands him the form that say she passes her yearly firearm test and Gil takes the form from Destiny left hand and looks at it. He then puts the form at the bottom of the one case assignment that is in his left hand.
"Good evening everyone and to let the three of you know, as of now I am the acting supervise of the graveyard shift and Jim Brass is now back being a Homicide Detective. We are only working a single case tonight and that is the Holly Gribbs Shooting case. Nick's I need you to go to the hospital and collect the bullets the Surgeon removed from Holly, because they are evidence in an active Homicide case. Destiny and Catherine I want you at the crime scene.
"And what are you going to be working on Gil?
" Catherine's as of tonight we are a CSI short so, I have call Sarah Sidle's for the San Franciscan crime lab to do the investigate and report on Warrick Brown's whereabout. Sara's is also transfer to the Las Vegas crime lab full time and I have to be at the lab when she gets her.
"Catherine can you driver to the scene?"
"Sure, Destiny, is your right wrist bothering you?"
"Yes a little, I think the firearm test, aggravate the wrist."
"You think the firearm test could have be postpone till your wrist was full healed."
"It was, Nick. I was suppose to take the test two days before leaving San Franciscan, but my supervise in San Franciscan and Jim Brass allowed me to postpone the test till this morning, but no late then this morning."
"Let get to work now!"
"(Nick, Catherine and Destiny) Ok, Grissom."
Destiny takes the ice off her right wrist and puts her wrist brace back on. Then Nick, Catherine and Destiny's stand up and walks out of the break room. Then the three of them go to the locker room and get their kits. Nick, Destiny and Catherine walk outside to the parking lot then Nick gets in his crime lab suv and Catherine and Destiny gets into Catherine crime lab suv. Then they take off and head towards the hospital and the crime scene. On the ride to the crime scene Destiny is thinking about how hard the last seven and half weeks in Las Vegas have been for her, when she asks to be transfer to the Las Vegas Crime lab. She thought it would make her life easy by not being in the same state as her Father was doing his time in a mental hospital for the crime insane and that it would help put testify in the court case along with her twin Sister Danielle and half-sister Dakota ( who is 16 years old) on how they father sexual asserted them as children behind her, but it did not help at all. The reason for this is her best friend Sara Sidle the one person she could trust to talk about it with is no longer in the same state or town, until today. The only reason she and Danielle even went to the police and turn they father in was because Dakota, come over to her apartment and was cry one night after he had sexual assert her four times in a row. She no longer was able to keep what her father was doing a secret, because her sister should not have to go through it. She knows Foster care was not the best, because she was in fostered care for a short while after they father beat her up, but they lie and tell the social worker that he only physical assert her and Daniella, because at the time Destiny's did not want people to know that an elite gymnast with a chance of being the next Olympic gold medal in gymnastic was being sexual assert, abuse was bad enough. She hopes that her sister will luck out and gets to be in a nice home. She luck out after two different homes, when Bill and Jillian Stokes (Nick Stokes Parent) take her and her twin sister in as fostered children for the four years they were in high school. She stops thinking about what she had been through when Catherine parks the car at the crime scene.
"Destiny will you dust the door for finger paints and I will process the area the shooting happened at."
"Sure Catherine."
Destiny and Catherine gets out of the suv and grab their kits, then close the doors of the suv. The two ladies' CSI then walks up the sidewalk and Destiny stop at the door to the house and puts a pair of latex gloves on and then opens the door. Catherine heads into the house and Destiny gets to work dusting the door for prints. Meanwhile at the lab Nick is at ballistic with Bobby Dawson who is running the bullet to see what type it is. At the sometimes Sarah Sidle is interview Warrick Brown on way he left Holly Gribbs alone at the scene.
"Warrick, you do know the right way to clear a Crime scene?"
"Yes, I do know the right way to clear a crime scene."
"Then way did you leave Holly Gribbs alone on her first day?"
"As I told Grissom I had a personal Issues that came up that I had to take care of right away. Way should it matter, I was left alone all the time when I was a CSI one."
"It matters because Holly Gribbs die on the operation table. Were you in a casino when you were on the clock, it says here in your personnel file that you have a gamble problem?
"No, I do not have a gamble problem."
"You are not telling me the truth, I have you on video in the Rampark Casino, during the time you were supposed to be with Holly Gribbs."
"Whatever!"
Warrick stands up and walks out of the interrogated room and he slams the door closed behind him. Sara writes down in her notes that Warrick got mad at her when she told him that she had him on tape at the Rampark casino and when she asks him if he had a gamble problem. At the sometime, at the Crime Scene Catherine had just found a pager and Holly's gun lying on the ground. Also Destiny has just finish dusting for paints and is putting her supply away. The two of them gather up the evidence they have found and put it into the suv and then get into the suv and Catherine drives to the lab. Once back at the lab Catherine has Destiny paint the gun for finger paints and then Catherine takes the gun to Bobby Dawson, while Destiny runs the finger paints through AFIS. At the sometime Sara comes into the computer lab and sit down next to her.
"Destiny, how are you doing?"
" (Look up for the screen and smile) Ok, I miss talking to you face to face. It was just not the same talking to Nick about my family and life Issue, seeing that it has been ten you since we talk about that stuff."
"That because when you did talk or see him or his family you want them to think that it is no longer bothering you."
"We have a match to the other finger paint on Holly's gun it belongs to Jerrod Copper. "
" let go tell Brass and Grissom then Destiny."
The two girls get up and walk out of the room and walk to Grissom office to let Grissom and Brass know about Jerrod Copper paints being on Holly's gun. Sara also hands Grissom her report on Warrick.
"A Jerrod Copper shot Holly Gribbs with her own gun.
"Thanks for letting Grissom and I know that Destiny and I will go bring him in."
Jim Brass's walk out of Grissom office and close the door behind him. Destiny cellphone start ringing. She takes the cellphone of her hip and sees it is her younger half-sister calling. She answers her cellphone and walks out of Grissom office. Sara close the office door and Grissom and her start discussion her finding on Warrick Brown. The next day in the hallway Warrick is sitting on a bench when Grissom walks up to him and takes a set next to him.
"What did the head of the lab say Grissom?"
"He want me to fire you, but I am not going to fire you, but I am going to help you get over your gamble problem, Warrick."
"Thanks Grissom."
" I will see you at work tonight."
"See you tonight Grissom."
Gil Grissom and Warrick Brown stand up and the two of them walk out of the lab together and over to their cars and head home to get some sleep, before the night shrift starts.
