Thank you for all of the reviews so far I really appreciated them. So please enjoy!


Horatio pulled into the street of the accident.

"There doesn't appear to have been any accident here," Horatio said, confused, "are you sure you got the right address?"

"Definitely, the accident should be right here."

"There's no sign of Calleigh either," Horatio noted.

"I'll try her calling her," Eric replied, he was beginning to get worried, if the scene had been a hoax Calleigh would have called them to let them know. He pulled his phone out and began dialling.

"I'll check the address of the person who called it in," Horatio said walking towards the front door of the house. He knocked on the door but got no reply, he began walking around the house checking in all of the windows to see if there was anyone home.

"She's not answering her phone," Eric told Horatio as he appeared from the side of the house, "something's not right H."

"It may be nothing Eric, maybe she realised it was a hoax and headed back to the lab and forgot to call us."

"But she's not answering her phone."

"Eric, she could be in the firing range in which case she would have turned her phone off so she didn't get distracted, let's get back to the lab and see if she's there."

"Ok, but I'm telling you H, something's not right."


Half an hour later Eric and Horatio arrived back at the lab, Eric went straight to the ballistics to look for Calleigh. Horatio made his way to DNA but bumped into Alex on the way.

"Hey Alex, have you seen Calleigh?"

"Not for a couple of hours Horatio, she was called to the scene of a traffic accident."

"Yeah we were just there, it was a hoax, but there was no sign of Calleigh."

"That was hours ago, Horatio, where is she? Have you tried calling her?"

"Yes, there's no answer." Horatio replied, concerned, it wasn't like Calleigh just to disappear without saying anything. Eric was walking towards them.

"She's not there H, and I've checked the trace lab and she's not there either. Neither Ryan nor Natalia have seen her. I'm getting worried Horatio, she should never have been out there on her own, he's got her hasn't he, you saw the note it said she was next, he's got her Horatio, I know he has." Eric was becoming increasingly alarmed.

"Eric, we need to stay focused, we're going to find her, and she's going to be ok," Horatio answered also worried about her, the thought of Bartlett being anywhere near her made him feel sick. "Her car, where's the hummer she was driving Eric?"

"Well, it's not in the parking lot, we would've seen it and it wasn't at the scene, he must have taken it when he took her."

"Eric, find me that car, I'm going to go to her apartment and see if there is any sign of her there." Horatio left the lab and began walking towards his car.


Horatio pulled up to Calleigh's apartment, got out the hummer and walked up the stairs to her apartment. He realised he had never actually been to her apartment the whole time he had known her. He knocked on the door, no answer. He tried again and no answer. He leaned against the door with his shoulder and then backed away before crashing into the door as hard as he could, the door broke open and he walked in. He walked through her living area toward the kitchen; there was no sign of Calleigh. He continued into her bedroom, her entire apartment was spotlessly tidy; her bedroom had pale yellow walls and on her dressing table was some photographs. One of her and her dad in what appeared to be a restaurant and a photo beside it of who he decided must have been her mother and brothers. The larger photograph on the other side of the table was of the team when Tim was still alive. Calleigh was in the middle smiling, and Eric and Tim were stood on either side of her with their arms around her shoulders. He and Alex were stood next to Tim. He looked at Calleigh again, she was always so happy no matter what was going on she always had a smile on her face, the entire time he had known her he could only ever remember her being upset once, when Tim had died. He looked back at Tim, he had already had to bury one member of his team he did not intend to have to do that again. He was going to find her. He left her apartment and headed back to CSI, he wanted to see if Eric had found her car.


Eric couldn't believe what was happening, he had been with Calleigh this morning and all of a sudden that seemed like a lifetime ago, he wanted to be with her again, to hold her, he had promised himself he'd make sure she was ok and now some maniac had her. He wished he had stayed with her all day like he had wanted to, no matter how much she had objected he should have followed her. The hummer had a GPS system built in, all he had to do was turn it on and find out where it was then go there and find her. He walked over to the computer in the lab and began tracing her hummer, the computer was taking it's time trying to find her, it was driving him mad, he hated the idea of her being out there with some animal, whilst he was stuck in this lab waiting for some stupid computer to tell him where she was. He thought about last night, what he wouldn't give to be back there with her, holding her in his arms whilst she slept, she was so beautiful she did not deserve this. The computer finally started bleeping, it had found it. The hummer was stationary next to some wasteland near some warehouses in downtown Miami. He picked up his phone and dialled Horatio's number.

"Caine," Horatio answered the phone.

"H, I have a location for the car."

"Eric wait there, I'm on my way back to the lab I'll be there in 5 minutes," Horatio replied before hanging up, he would normally have arranged to meet Eric at the scene but, if Eric found the guy who had Calleigh before he got there, there was no saying what he'd do. At least this way he could keep an eye on him.

When Horatio arrived back at the lab Eric was waiting for him, he jumped into the car before Horatio had the chance to stop.


Fifteen minutes later they pulled up at the wasteland and found the hummer, the doors were wide open but there was no sign of Calleigh anywhere. They got out of the car and walked towards the hummer, Eric looked into the back seat.

"Horatio," he said, Horatio moved around the where Eric was standing and looked into the car.

"Blood," he said, starring at the blood that was smeared, across the seat of the car. Eric began to panic, before, he could still hope that she was ok and that this was a big mistake and that she'd just gone somewhere and forgotten to tell anyone. He knew it was unlikely but it was possible, now he knew Bartlett had her, he had her. He just continued to stare at the blood hoping if he stared for long enough, it would disappear and he would wake up from this nightmare.


Calleigh began to wake up, it was dark, she had a banging headache, she put her hand to her head and realised that she was bleeding. She was in a van, she realised that it was beginning to slow down and it came to a stop, she was terrified and suddenly the doors on the van opened…….


Don't you just hate me so much! I promise you will find out what happens to Calleigh soon, but first you have to read and review, or maybe I'll get bored and not post any more and who knows what will happen to Calleigh if Eric doesn't get the chance to save her! Thank you for reading and please review, reviews make me very very happy.
