Chapter Six: Who are you?
It has been a long week for Gil Grissom and his night shift crew they have been working on cases dealing with a serial rapist and each night they have got a new case that matches the case from the night before. They have not been able to figure out who the rapist is yet and he does not leave any semen behind, because he uses a condom that he takes with him when he leaves the woman's house. The victim could only told the CSI that he wearing a ski mask over his head and only his eyes were showing. Theirs know he has blue eyes and he is six feet tell. Gil had sent his team home to get some sleep, because they had been working since Monday without a break and it now Friday afternoon, he even went home to get some rest. Gil knows that it was going to be hard for his team to come into work that night, he just hopes they do not get another case relation to this serial rapist. Gil gets back to the lab an hour before shift starts to find Sara and Destiny already sitting in the break room going over the case files from the cases they been working on since Monday night. He walks into the break room and gets himself a cup of coffee and sits down across from Sara. Destiny and Sarah look up at Gil, who give them a look that says he is worry about them.
"How long have the two of you been here?"
" I've been here for two hours, now."
"And you Destiny?"
" I have been here since one o'clock."
" I sent you home at noon why do you come back so soon?"
"I could not fall to sleep and I get home to my small four bedrooms, two bathroom house and find that my sixteen and half year old sister Dakota was home from school."
"She is in ten grades?"
"No Grissom, she a senior she skipped first grade. "
"Why was she not a school?"
"The school nurse sent her home sick, she was run a fever and could not stop sneezes and coughing."
"I need to go to my office and check if I have any message, and grab the case assignments for tonight. I see the two of you again when the shift start."
Gil gets up and walks out of the break room, at the sometime Destiny's get up and refill Sara and her coffee mugs up. Destiny walks back over to the table and hand Sara her cup and sits back down at the table. She sits her mug down on the table and then lays her hand down on the table and closes her eyes.
" Sara's wake me up when shift starts.
"ok!"
Sara could not find the heart to wake her at the start of the shift and since Gil Grissom has not come back into the break room yet Sara just let her sleep. Also, Nick, Warrick and Catherine would not wake Destiny's up either. Destiny's wakes up when Gil comes into the break room and slams his stuff onto the table, which cause Destiny to jump out of her seat. Everyone just looks at her, before looking at Grissom.
"What case do we have tonight, Grissom?"
"Sara we have another rape case that matches the other cases we being working on all week. But this time he raped a sixteen-year girl. But there is good news she was able to get the ski mask off his face as he was getting off her. Jim Brass says she can tell us what he looks like. Destiny can you stay here a minute, while everyone else goes to the locker room to get their kits.
"sure"
Sara, Nick, Warrick and Catherine stand up and walks out of the break room. Nick who was the last one out of the break room close the door behind him. Gil Grissom watches the CSI that just left the break room till they are out of sight and then turn to face Destiny who is still setting in a chair at the break room table and he notices she has a worried look on her face.
"I have to take you off the case Destiny!"
" Why are you taking me off the case Grissom?"
"The name of the sixteen-year-old is Dekota Kupp and you house is the crime scene."
" No, how did he get in I made sure I lock the house up before I left?"
"The rapist breaks the window on the back door of the house and then reach in and unlock the door, Destiny."
The rest of the team walks back into the break room and over heard what Grissom just told Destiny. Grissom had the CSI each a piece of paper with the crime scene address on it they all look up at Destiny when they see her address and her half sister name as the victim. Sara's runs over to Destiny and give her a hug.
" It will be ok she is a tough girl"
"Gil you have to keep me on this case I will not be able to sleep till the guy that is doing this is caught!"
"I will let you stay on the case, but you cannot work the scene. I want you to stay at the lab and go through the photo and evidence from the four other cases. I have laid out the cases in the evidence room, so we can compare this case to them.
"Ok."
Grissom, Sara, Nick, Warrick and Catherine leave the lab and Destiny stays behind at the lab to go through the evidence from the other four cases. Destiny's goes to the evidence room and she starts comparing the cases. At the sometime Grissom is driving one the crime lab suv and Sara is driving another crime lab suv to Destiny's house and Nick, Catherine and Warrick are in the suv that Sara is driving, but no one talks the whole way to the blue two-story craftsman' bungalow home, which is on the corner, and is the house that Destiny lives in. When the CSI gets to Destiny's house, the five CSI get out of the suv and grab they kits. As there walk up the steps of the porch, the CSI takes in the stone work on the porch and chimney. When they reach the door Gil Grissom knock and Jim Brass opens the front door and lets Grissom and the rest of the CSI into the house. When the CSI enter the house, they find Dakota sitting on the couch with her knee up against her chest and her arm wrap around them.
"Jim Brass why are you at this crime scene, you are a Homicide Detective?"
"Grissom's, I am filling in for Detective Sergeant Ray O'Riley who called in sick today. He and his wife and twin five daughters have the stomach flu."
"That not good.
" No, it is not good but I think Destiny would prefer me over him working this case."
" You might be right on that one and hi Dekota I am Gil Grissom can you tell me what happened to you?"
"Yes, A man who was in his late teen maybe, Ah-choo, twenty, coughs, rape me, Ah-choo, me and he had a ski mask on, but I pull it of off him as he was Ah-choo, getting off of me, which made him drop the condom he used as he was rush to leave."
"So you get a good look at the guy that raped you Dakota?'
"Yes Sara."
"So you will be able to describe him to a forensic sketch artist?"
"Yes, I will be able to describe him to a forensic sketch artist, Ah-choo, Catherine."
"Where did the guy rape you Dakota?"
" On the couch, Ah-choo, Gil Grissom and I'm very sorry that I can't stop sneezes or coughing. I have a bad head cold."
"It all right your sister had already told me you were sick and thanks for telling me where it happened, it will make our job easily."
"You welcome."
Dekota's start sniffly and reached for the tissue box on the coffee table but is not able to reach the tissue box. Jim Brass grabs a tissue and hands it to Dekota. She takes the tissue from him and blows her nose.
" Dekota, I need you to come with me to the hospital, so a nurse can do a sexual Assault kit on you."
"Ok, Sara."
Dekota stands up and walks over to the door and puts her shoes on. Sara walks over to the door and opens it up, then Sara and Dekota walk out the door. Brass close the front door after Warrick and Catherine went out the door. The two CSI are now walking around the outside of Destiny's house looking for any evidence the rapist might have left behind. Inside the house Nick grabs his kit and walks through the living room and into the dinning room. He then walks into the kitchen and walks over to the back door of the house, which is on his left-hand side. He set his kit down and then he open up his kit and puts on a pair of latex gloves. Nick then gets out his finger print kit and starts dust the door knob for finger prints. Meanwhile in living room Gil Grissom has already put the condom into an evidence bag and he is now checking the couch with a black light. A half hour later at Desert palm hospitals', the nurse has just finished the sexual Assault kit. The nurse also has giving Dakota a set of purple hospital scrub to wear because her clothing is evidence and have been bag. The nurse walks out of the examination room with the bag clothing and sexual Assault kit and hands them to Sara Sidle. At the sometime the Dekota is getting change, once she has change out of the hospital grown and into the scrub, she walks out into the hallway and over to Sara. Then Sara and Dekota leave the hospital and Sara driving Dekota to the Crime lab, so she can meet with the forensic sketch artist. Fifteen minutes later Dekota and Sara walk through the main doors of the crime lab. Dekota follows Sara down the hall towards the conference room, which is where the forensic sketch artist is at. Shortly after Dekota has started giving a describing of the man who rape her to the forensic sketch artist, Sara goes to the DNA lab and gives the sexual Assault kit and Dekota clothing to Greg. He takes the sexual assault kit and bag with the clothing in it for Sara.
"I will get to work on both of these right away, Sara. How is Destiny younger sister doing?"
"She is doing all right, for what she just went through. She handling being rape like she is an adult and not a sixteen-year-old girl."
"She is an elite gymnast, just like her older sisters and their tend to be more mature then an average sixteen-year-old because of all the travel there do."
"That could be it or the fact that her father was not much of a father to Dekota and she has basic raise her self, just like her older sister Destiny and Danielle did." How is Destiny holding up, Greg?"
"Why don't you ask me and instead of asking Greg how I am holding up? But to answers the question I am holding up ok!"
Both Greg and Sara turn around to see Destiny standing in the doorway to the DNA lab with both hands on her hip. Destiny walks into the DNA lab and over to where Sara is standing. Greg and Sara get a good look at Destiny and can see tears running down her cheeks. Sara gives her best friend a hug, at the sometime Gil Grissom walks into the DNA lab and set the DNA evidence collect at Destiny's home down on the lab table next to the sexual assault kit and bag of clothing.
"You sister holding up a lot better then you are right now Destiny. You should go and sees your sister, she is in the conference room with the forensic sketch artist."
"That sounds like a good idea Sara and thanks for the hug I need one."
"And Destiny's when your sister is down with the forensic sketch artist, take her home. I cleared the house before Nick, Warrick, Catherine and Brass left so you take her home and not have to check into a hotel for the night and also you can take the rest of the night off."
"Thanks, Grissom."
Sara's release Destiny's from the hug and then Destiny walks out of the DNA lab. When Destiny reached, the conference room Dekota had just stand up from the chair she was setting in. Dekota sees Destiny standing in the doorway of the conference room and runs up to her and Destiny gives her younger sister a big hug and Dekota hugs her sister back. The two sisters stand there hugging for several minutes and they do not even sees Catherine walk past them into the conference room and take the sketch from the forensic sketch artist.
"I can take you home now Dekota."
"Can we swing by, Ah-choo, Kay Vegetarian takeout and get something, coughs, to eat?"
"Sure."
"Dekota, feel better soon!"
"Thanks, Catherine and I help that I start to feel better Ah-choo soon!"
"I have to go give the sketch to Jim Brass so it can be sent it out with All Points Bulletin."
"Catherine can you call me and let me know when they catch the guy that rape mine little sister?"
"Sure Destiny."
Catherine walks out of the conference room, the two sisters walk out of the conference room a minute later and they walk down the halls to the locker room. When they reach the locker room Destiny's go in and Dekota waits in the hall as her older sister Destiny's get her purse out of her locker. When Destiny walks out of the locker room, she sees her younger sister lean up against the wall and coughing into her left hand. Once Dekota stops coughing the two sister walks to the main doors of the crime lab and then heads out to Destiny's car. At the sometime in the lab Nick is running the finger prints he found at the scene through AFIS, but so far all he hits he has got on the finger print belong to Destiny, Dekota and Danielle's (Destiny's twin sister). Several hours later at the lab Greg has just finish running the DNA form the condom and sexual assault kit and get a hit from CODIS. Greg print it out and run out of the DNA Lab and to Grissom officer and hands him the printout.
"The DNA matches a Thomas Kent, good job Greg. Great the picture on the print out matches the forensic sketch artist drew from what Dekota told her. I will give Brass a call and tell him."
"(Brass Stands in door way) I hear the whole thing and he is in police custody as we speck. Lockwood just called me as I was walking over here and he told me he picked up a Thomas Kent's up he looks just like the guy in the drawing. And Thomas Kent has confessed to raping all five girls."
"Good, let warp this case up and turn in the paper work for it."
"Sound like a plan to me Grissom and Catherine at the police station as we speck collection the clothing Thomas Kent is wearing and getting a sample of his DNA, but only because of protocol, seeing that he already admitted to raping the girls."
"Thanks for telling me that Brass, now lets all get back to work."
Jim and Greg walk out off Grissom office. Greg heads to the DNA lab and Brass head back to the police station to fill out paper work.
