I Know I'll Never Love This Way Again

Al Johnson still had that gun trained on Grissom while Rudy Vagn watched. He kept a eye on Grissom too, Rudy's gun was no where to be seen.
Meanwhile in the bathroom, Lindsay was reiterating everything that was going on and what she had heard from the two that had been holding Grissom hostage.
"Is somebody coming or what?" she asked. She was getting quite annoyed that no one believed her.
"Just you wait lil lady, is there an adult in the house that can back up your story"
"Are you kidding me" yelled Lindsey's grandmother into the phone. "Get your F-asses here right now"
In the bedroom Grissom cursed inwardly. Their cover was blown all because Catherine's mother wouldn't keep her voice down.
"I'll take care of it" Rudy said and took his gun out of his holster and headed to the bathroom.
Lindsey glared at her grandmother seething angrily. "What the hell did you do that for, you are gonna get us killed "
"Ya no thanks to that ass Gil Grissom" she replied.
Lindsey heard noises coming from outside the bathroom. She ordered her grandmother to get into the tub, while she, would hide behind the door.
"Don't you make a sound or I swear to you I will make you life a living hell" Lindsey said and pulled a gun from where it was hidden in the back of the toilet tank.
"Lindsey Willows don't you even think of touching that gun" her grandmother admonished. "you don't even know how to use one"
"I've been taking fire-arms lessons since I was ten years old grandma so be quiet or else" she said.
Lindsey's grandmother hid in the shower as she was told as her granddaughter hid behind the door.
Rudy turned the door handle of the bathroom and stepped in and when he was all the way in Lindsey jumped in front of him and aimed the gun right at his face and cocked the gun. "You move and you die" she said.
"You are a child, who let a child have a gun"
"I'm holding a gun to a man who is a danger to society, who held a friend of mine hostage and is standing in the bathroom of a home that does not belong to him. I will give you five seconds before I fire this gun to get the hell out of Gil Grissom's house. I am dead serious get out."
"You do not have the guts to fire that thing little girl" Rudy said with a lear.
Lindsey shrugged her shoulders helplessly. "You are right" she sighed I don't have the guts to shoot this thing.
Rudy stepped away smiling and giggling. "I knew it" he said and lowered his gun.
Lindsey raised her weapon again and aiming it at his leg fired not once but three times. Rudy screamed in pain and was down and was not moving his legs.
Al Jonson and Grissom came running. "What did you do Lindsey" asked Grissom.
"I shot him in the legs Mr. Grissom, he was a threat to us" she said and aimed her gun now at Al Johnson who was now caught off guard, his weapon not drawn because he was staring at his now fallen comrade.
"Don't move dirtbag" Lindsey said in a very gruff tough voice.. Soon the police arrived and took both Al Johnson and Rudy Vahn away. Lindsey was praised for being so calm when using that firearm.
"Lindsey!" Catherine cried and ran to her daughter, once mother and daughter were reunited at CSI.
"You were so brave, I am proud of you!" Catherine said to her daughter.
"I'm going to be a CSI just like you Mom." She said with a smile.
"Not if I can help it" said a sour voice.
Catherine went up to her mother and gave her a look. "What the hell is your problem mom? Be proud of your granddaughter, she saved your bloody life!"
With that Catherine and her daughter walked away.
Sara and Oscar arrived in a police car. Sara got out of the front seat and ran to Grissom and hugged him tightly.
"Ohmigod Grissom I have been though hell and back" she said and burst into uncontrollable tears.
"What? Calm down Sara I don't understand you through your tears" Grissom said.
"She killed herself Griss! Charlotte Jonson killed herself, I could not stop her!
Sara was overwhelmed with guilt at not being able to stop her from jumping and she was inconsolable too. The only thing that Grissom could do for now was just sit with her at home. The CSI team would be taking over the Charlotte Jonson case the following day. Grissom and Sara had permission to go home and sleep for a while until they could return to the scene and process it as well as have Sara talk about what had transpired in that 23rd floor room.
Also to give credit where credit is due, the line that Lindsey utters "Don't move dirt bag" is taken from the movie Police Academy and the character 'Hooks' who as those who had watched that movie had had a mousy voice all though the movie until the very end.
