This is the last chapter of this short and fun story…. Thanks to my quick readers. I hope many more people read this and review…
P.C. thirty one said "we've caught a dirty one"
Maxwell stands alonePainting testimonial pictures, oh, oh, oh, oh
Rose and Valerie screaming from the gallery
Say he must go free
The judge does not agree, and he tells them so-o-o-o
But, as the words are leaving his lips
A noise comes form behind
Maxwell's silver hammer
Alex was arrested for the murder of Megan and the college professor. A murder weapon was never found.
At Grissom's town house Sara was preparing for pre-trial. The stereo blaring the Beatles
"BANG BANG Maxwell's silver hammer came down upon her head,
Bang Bang Maxwell's silver hammer made sure the she was dead."
Grissom stomped into the living room and shut the stereo off.
"I hate the Beatles." He said.
Sara stood up and straitened his tie. "You're just upset that I was right."
"You're not right… you just noticed it."
"Isn't that the same thing?" She said smiling.
Grissom sighed." I guess."
Sara laughed and kissed him. They gathered their papers and left for the hearing.
"ALEX MUST GO FREE. ALEX MUST GO FREE." A bunch of young college students shouted.
Warrick, Grissom and Sara glared at them.
"This is eerie." Warrick said.
As Alex was walking into the court he turned to the cameras.
"I just wanted to say that my parent's death and the pressures of this hearing won't stop me from pursuing my dreams." He said as he let tears slip down his face.
"Painting testimonial pictures oh oh oh oh ." Warrick whispered to Sara.
"ALEX MUST GO FREE. ALEX MUST GO FREE."
"We got a dirty one didn't we?" The sheriff asked as he took Alex by the arm.
"ALEX MUST GO FREE. ALEX MUST GO FREE." The girls shouted.
"I don't think so." The sheriff shouted to them.
Grissom heard a rustling a turned to see Alex raise a silver hammer.
"SARA!" He shouted and dove for her.
Alex brought the hammer down on the sheriff's head. Once... twice...
He turned towards Sara, but Grissom tackled him to the ground. Alex reached up and brought the hammer down on his arm.
Warrick and Brass rushed over and pulled Alex up.
"Oh my God." Sara said.
Grissom glanced up at her.
In the hospital Grissom sat waiting for the release papers. His arm was broken in three places.
"You're lucky that was your arm and not your head... like the poor sheriff." Sara said as walked in.
"He's going to be fine." Grissom said as he got up.
As they walked down the hall Brass fell in-step.
"Hey Gil."
Grissom stopped and turned towards him. "What?" He said
"Maybe you should listen to her from now on... you know... listen to the lyrics."
"Thanks. I'll do that when we have a 'Carpenters' killer."
As they walked out of the hospital Sara couldn't resist herself.
"Maxwell Edison majoring in medicine..." She sang.
Grissom covered his ear... the one nearest to her. "I HATE THAT SONG." He hissed.
"Bang Bang Maxwell's silver Hammer came upon her head... Bang Bang Maxwell's silver hammer made sure--"
Grissom pulled her into a kiss. "OK... you're right."
Sara smirked as the walked towards the car. Victory.
THE END...
