Chapter Ten: Love, fighting and fleeing the scene (Change title of the episode title because the title Sex, Lies and Larvae from the vision of the episode seen on tv did not match my vision)
Sara, Destiny and Gil Grissom are process an apartment where a woman was stabbed to death in front of her seven-year-old daughter Anne Bell. Gil Grissom is processing the kitchen, Sara's is processing the parents' bedroom. Destiny has already process the bathroom and she is now processing the living room and Ann Bell is watching Destiny's from the couch. While they wait for David to get there and take the victim, which is on the floor of the daughters' bedroom. They have been working for an hour now when Sara walks into the living room and she looks over at Anne Bell who is still sit on the couch still wanting for the social worker, because the social worker has not show up to the apartment to pick up Ann Bell yet. Destiny's walks over to Sara who is still looking at Anne Bell and she knows just by the look on Sara face this case is getting to her best friend.
"Sara how are you hold up?
"Ok, It's just hard, because I know what is going to happen next for Ann Bell. And no one should see one of their parents' stabbing the other parents' until their die. No matter how old the child is Destiny's!"
"I know, but since you know what it feels like maybe you should go over to Ann Bell and talk with her, it might make it easier for her knowing what is going to happen next from someone who went through it themselves."
"I might."
Just then David push the stretcher with the body bag on it comes into the apartment and he then wheels the stretcher with the body bag on it over to Sara and Destiny who are in the living room. Both Sara and Destiny stop talk as soon as David walk up to them.
"Can I take the victim to the lab?"
"Yeah we get the photo of the body at the scene when we get here David."
"Ok, By the way it is nice to see you made it into work tonight Destiny, Way were you not at work yesterday?"
"I take a personal day yesterday, David."
"Good to hear that, I was worry that you might have catch the flu from Catherine."
"No, I just need a day off is all David."
"David's do you have a crush on Destiny?"
"Yes, I know this is not the greatest time to ask this, but would you want to go to the movie and out to dinner on Sunday night Destiny?"
" We have to work Sunday night, but we could go to breakfast Monday morning, when we get off work and maybe go for a walk afterwards."
"Ok, then it a date."
"Yes it's a date."
David's wheel the stretcher with the body bag on it into Ann Bell's bedroom and then he takes the liver temperature. And once he has the liver temperature, he then puts the mother body into a body bag. David then puts the body bag with the mother body in it onto the stretcher. He then wheels the stretcher into the living room to found Gil Grissom, Destiny, Sara and Jim Brass along with Ann Bell all in the living room waiting for him. He stops push the stretcher and Gil Grissom walks up to David.
"How long has Mrs. Hopeson been dead for David?"
"She has been dead for an hour and forty-five minutes now, Mr. Grissom."
"Thanks, David and you can call me Gil or Grissom like everyone else, David!"
"Ok, Grissom. I need to get back to the lab, now.
"Ok, Tell Dr. Robbins that I should be there with the next hour or two."
"Ok, I will."
David pushes the stretcher through the living room and out the apartment door. Once David is through the door, Jim Brass's close the door. Then Destiny and Gil go into the girls' bedroom and start process the room that the crime happened at. While Sara and Brass get ready to talk to with the girl about what, she had seen that night. Brass takes out his notepad and pen so he can write down what the Anne Bell tells them. Sara takes a deep breath as Jim Brass opens his notepad.
"Ann Bell my name is Sara Sidle."
"And my name is Jim Brass, Ann Bell for the recorded can you tell me your whole name?"
"My name is Ann Bell Hopeson."
"Can you tell me what happened here tonight?"
"Yes Miss. Sidle, I was in my bedroom, reading the book my first grade teacher Mr. Simpson assigned for my book report that is do next Friday, when I hared my mom and dad fighting. The next thing I hear is my bedroom door opening and my mom comes run into my bedroom and slams the door close. I look up and my mom is leaning up against the door trying to keep it close and I can hear my dad on the other side pounding on the door. The next thing I know my dad kicks the door in and my mom goes flying across my bedroom and lands on my bean bag chair. My mom stand up as my dad comes running into my bedroom carrying a knife. He runs over to my mom and raise the knife and goes to stab her, but my mom grabs the knife by the blade and cuts her hand as my dad pull it out of her hand, he then stabs my mom in the chest and cuts himself as he is stabbing her, my mom tries to stop him the first time he stabs him and grabs the part of my father hand that was cut, with her cut hand. My father takes off after stabbing my mom seven time in the chest. And that when I run into the living room and call 911.
"Thanks Anne Bell that all for now, Sara will you stay with Anne Bell until the social worker from child warfare gets here?"
"Sure, Jim."
Jim Brass stands up from the love seat he was sitting on and walks out of the living room to found Gil Grissom and Destiny Kessler to fill them in on what Ann Bell told him and Sara. Ann Bell watching Jim Brass as he walks away from Sara and her and when Jim Brass is no longer in view Ann Bell looks at Sara and can see the tears running down Sara cheeks. Sara quickly wipes the tear off her cheeks when she notices that Ann Bell has seen her crying.
"Why are you crying Miss Sidle?"
"Because I know what you have just went through and what your life is now going to be like for you."
"You see your father murder your mom, Miss Sidle?"
"No, I saw my mother murder my father the same way your dad murder your mom."
"Oh, what is life going to be like for me now?"
"If the social worker cannot found any family members that will take you into they home, you will be put into fostered care and most likely will be moves around to several foster homes until the day that you turn eighteen, which is when you age out of the fostered care system."
"Is there any thing that I should know about the fostered care system incase I end up being in the fostered care system, Miss Sidle?"
"That the system is not perfect you could end up seeing some foster parents fighting, sexual assault. Some of the fostered families are doing foster care just for the monthly checks and they do not care about the children there are taking in. I was in a few homes where the fostered parents were physical abuse, but there are a few good souls that do foster care because they are not able to have they are children. These families really do love the children's they take in and treat them like they are they own children and give the children lots of love and everything they need. "Does that help you Ann Bell?"
"Yes it does Miss. Sidle and I hope if I end up in foster care that I get one of the fostered family that love the children they take in. Can I aks you one more thing Miss. Sidle?"
"Yes."
"Will I ever forget what I have seen tonight or will it be with me for the rest of my life?"
" I have never forget the night my mother killed my father, but it has get easier for me as the years have gone by, Ann Bell."
"Thanks, Miss. Sidle."
Jim, Destiny, Sara and Ann Bell did not know that Gil Grissom had walk out of the kitchen into the hallway to pick up evidence bag and that he is standing in front of parents bedroom. Gil stops what he is doing and listens to Sara and Ann Bell talking and he over hears everything Sara told. Ann Bell. After he listens to what Sara and Ann Bell was talking about, he wish that he did not overhear what they were talking about, because what she just told Ann Bell is something that she do not want her supervisor or her co-worker knowing seeing that she has never tell him about her mother stabbing her father seven time. A few minutes after Sara answer Ann Bell last question neither Sara nor Ann Bell notice Jim Brass, Gil Grissom and Destiny's walk into the living room carrying bags of evidence towards the apartment front door and on the way Jim Brass pick up the one brown bag that has the evidence from the living room in it.
"Sara's we finished processing the crime scene and the rest of the apartment. Now all that left for us to do is to load the evidence into the crime lab suv.
"Ok Grissom, Ann Bell lets go outside to wait for the social worker, who should be here anytime now."
Ann Bell and Sara stand up and follow Destiny, Gil and Jim out the apartment door and Sara close the door to the apartment since she is the last one through the door. Then the five of them walk out to the crime lab suv and Jim Brass car. A few minutes later the Social worker gets to the apartment as Gil, Jim and Destiny are putting the evidence into the back of the suv. Anne Bell is sitting on the hood of Brass car and Sara is standing next to Brass's car. The Social worker walks over to Anne Bell and Sara.
"Kara Smith, this is Ann Bell Hopeson, Ann Bell this is social worker Kara Smith.
"Thanks for induction us Sara Sidle."
"Your welcome"
"It is time for us to go, Ann Bell."
"Where are you taking me Kara Smith?"
"I am taking you to the fostered house that you will be stay with Ann Bell, unfortunate it is not in your current school district. So you will have to start at a new school next week."
"So I won't be in school the rest of this week and did you try to find any family member that would take me?"
"No, you will be out of school for the rest of this week and you have no other family members your mom was a only child and your father only has one sibling and his twin brother he is side with your father, so you can't stay with him and both of your grandparents are dead. I am still trying to reach your twin twenty-year-old brother and sister, but so far I am having no luck getting a hold of them. So far now you will have to go to a fostered home, you are not start school till next week, incase, I do reach your older brother and sister and one of them agrees to take you in. I do not want to make you switch school twice in two weeks."
"Ok."
Ann Bell hops off of the hood Jim Brass's car and follows Kara Smith to her car. Jim, Sara, Destiny and Gil watch Kara open the back door on the passenger side of the car and Ann Bell get into the car. Ann Bell close the door and Kara Smith gets into the car. After Kara Smith has drive off Gil, Sara and Destiny get into the suv and Sara drives to the lab and Jim gets into his car and heads to the police station. Two hours later Sara and Destiny watch Brass and Gil talking to Anne Bell father, but it is not going good at, all the evidence and the girls' statement say he did it. But Mr. Hopeson and his lawyer stand up and walk toward the room door and leave and they are now walking towards the main door. Sara and Destiny run over to Gil Grissom with looks on both their faces that say they are upset.
"Why does he get to leave, Grissom?"
"Because his boss confirmed that he was at work when the murder taken places, Sara."
"Gil you know the boss is lying for him, his boss is his twin bother."
"I know that Destiny"
"He killed his wife in front of their daughter Ann Bell, Gil and Ann Bell story support what Dr. Robbins and the evidence says, which is the knife that had his fingerprints in the blood and his DNA was a match to the DNA that was found in the wife cut from fighting back."
"Sara's, you, Jim, Destiny and I know that, so give Brass time and he will get Mr. Hopeson twin bother Tim Hopeson to tell the truth."
"But till then Mr. Hopeson could beat another woman to death, Gil!"
After Sara yells her last sentence at Grissom she runs out of Police department and Destiny runs after her. Gil Grissom stands there thinking what is Sara's problem for a minute and then he remembers what Sara told Ann Bell at the crime scene, Gil then runs after Sara and Destiny because they all ride together he makes it out to the suv just in time to hop in before Destiny's back out from the parking space the suv in.

"I am taking Sara home she is not feeling good."
"Sara is that true?"
"Yes I have a really bad headache."
"Fine are you coming back in after you drop off Sara, Destiny?"
"I am going to go home and take a shower. Then I am going to lie down and close my eyes, If you need me to come back into work, just call my cellphone Grissom."
"Ok."
