Chapter 8 is up!!!! ENJOY!!!!
--
Unknowing to Warrick and Grissom, Catherine and Sara slid out from behind them and stood next to each other, aiming their guns at the three men. They waited for the first shot to be fired, and when it was, it was a loud crack that came from Keith's gun. It seemed to go in slow motion, and it was aimed straight for Sara. Catherine noticed and leapt in front of Sara, the bullet striking her shoulder and sending her into Sara. Sara yelled out,
"Cat!" Warrick looked at them, but Sara gestured frantically to the fight, as Grissom was all alone in fighting the three men. With a frantic glance Warrick turned his attention back to the shoot-out and helped Grissom.
"Cat, can you hear me?" Sara said, and Catherine nodded. Sara carefully helped Catherine limp to a tree and sat her down, saying,
"Stay here, and try not to move your arm, kay?"
"Sure. Go get them, Sara." Catherine said weakly and Sara nodded, saying,
"Hang in there for me, Cat, hang in there." Catherine nodded and turned around to come face to face with Keith. Sara gasped, but before she could scream Keith slapped a hand over her mouth. Catherine screamed weakly, but Keith raised his gun to shoot Catherine. Sara bit his hand hard and kneed him in the groin, kicking his gun out of his hand at the same time, yelling,
"No! You will NOT shoot her!" Keith lay on the ground gasping for a moment and then grabbed Sara's ankle, taking her down with a sharp cry.
Keith scrambled to his feet and grabbed Sara's wrists, dragging her with him into the forest. Sara managed to shoot a glance at Catherine, and jerked her head at the gun, and then back at Catherine. Catherine understood and crawled over to the gun and held onto it, peeking out to see if she needed to help Grissom and Warrick with the gun fight. Sara was dragged further and further into the forest and farther and farther away from help.
Meanwhile, Grissom and Warrick were ducking and dodging bullets while they tried to hit the other guy's guns, not wanting to kill them, although they were mad enough to kill them. The two guys taunted Grissom and Warrick, telling them that they had fun with their girls, that they had broken Catherine and Sara. Those comments got Grissom and Warrick shaking with fury, but they still refused to kill the two of them, as they would rather have them rot in jail for the rest of their miserable lives than get out of that torture just by dying.
"Ha, ha ha ha ha," The two taunted, dodging another few rounds from Grissom and Warrick. Finally, Warrick had enough and launched himself at one of the guys, knocking the gun out of his hands and rolling around with him on the ground, using his fists to try and subdue him. The second guy went to aim his gun at Warrick, but Grissom shot the gun out of his hands. The guy glared at Grissom and launched himself at him, grabbing his gun just as it went off. Grissom groaned in pain and the guy sprung up from Grissom's limp body and grinned evilly as he aimed the gun down at him.
Warrick managed to get a good punch to the first guy's jaw and stunned him. Warrick twisted behind him and slowly choked off his air until he hung limp from Warrick's grip. Warrick was sorely tempted to keep choking him until he was dead, so he tightened his grip, hearing choking sounds coming from the guy's throat. Then, he heard the saving voice of an angel say,
"Warrick, stop!" He automatically stopped, looking over to see Catherine looking at him with a fierce look in her pain-filled eyes. Warrick let the guy go and stood up. He locked eyes with Catherine and she pointed at Grissom and the second guy. Warrick reluctantly tore his gaze away from Catherine and saw Grissom lying prone on the ground, about to get killed by the second guy pointing Grissom's own gun at Grissom. With an angry groan Warrick launched himself at the second guy, taking the gun away and knocking him out with one powerhouse punch to his jaw. With both the guys down for the count Warrick got up and kneeled down next to Grissom who was already sitting up.
"Gris, lay down, you're shot," Warrick said, but Grissom waved him off, saying,
"Just a flesh wound, I'm fine." Warrick gave up and helped Grissom to his feet, and Catherine edged around the tree, hanging onto it for support. Warrick saw the blood staining her shirt and tossed his cell at her, saying,
"Call an ambulance, Catherine." She nodded and Grissom looked frantically around the clearing for Sara.
"Where's Sara?" Grissom asked, his voice rising with hysteria.
"I dunno, Gris, but we'll find her." Warrick said, his own voice rough with worry. Catherine hung up and said,
"Sara! Keith dragged her off, I don't know where, but he's gonna kill her! He told me that he hates her! I know it! He's gonna kill her!"
Warrick looked at Grissom with horror-struck eyes, but Grissom had already shrugged off Warrick's helping arm and staggered into the forest on his own, ignoring his pain and forcing himself to concentrate of finding Sara before it was too late.

Meanwhile, Keith had dragged Sara off to another clearing and he threw her at a tree and she hit it, crumbling to the ground. He laughed moronically and said evilly,
"Get up Sara." She did, and glared at him.
"What do you want with me, Keith? What do you want with Catherine?"
"Don't you remember?" He asked innocently, twirling a lock of her hair between his fingers. When she didn't answer he tugged hard on her hair, making her wince.
"Well? Do you remember?" He demanded, and she reluctantly nodded.
"I thought you were dead." Sara said quietly, her voice shaking with anger.
"Nope. I'm alive and well. Back from the dead, you could say." He said mockingly, and then jerked her closer to him and said,
"You are going to pay for abandoning me. And when I'm finished with you, I'm going to visit Catherine, and avenge Eddie."
"What?" Sara gasped, and Keith smiled wickedly.
"Let's go back to our high school years, shall we?"
