"Hey Grissom!" Greg Sanders called after his boss. "Is it true you're bringing in the big shots?"
Grissom winced in annoyance. He sighed, "Did you the results in from the rape kit?"
"Oh, come on! You don't need to keep anything from Greg," said Greg, speaking in third person. "Everyone needs help once in a while." Greg saw his boss opening his mouth to make an angry retort so he interrupted him. "Yes I got the results and sadly they were positive. Not in the system, however. Do we have anything yet? Suspects?"
"Not yet, that's why we're bringing the 'big shots' in as you so wisely put it," said Grissom, walking away from his open-mouthed team member.
"Seriously? When do they get here, Griss?" he called out.
"There are coming in as we speak."
…..
The CSI team waited in the lobby for the BAU team. Catherine was grinning, glad Grissom had finally swallowed his pride and allowed the FBI to get involved. Nick and Greg were joking around together, picturing what the stiffs would look like.
"I'm tellin' you Sanders, picture Men in Black. I can see it already," laughed Nick. He didn't know what to think of the situation, but he did admit that they needed help and if these profilers were all the media cracked them up to be, then it sounded like a good plan.
"Have you ever seen FBI guys or worked with them, for that matter?" asked Greg, still being relatively new to the team as he was the youngest member.
"Not really seen them too much, and no I haven't worked with them yet, thank God," joked Nick, laughing along with Greg.
Sara was next to Grissom. She didn't believe in all of this "profiling" nonsense. The team had been on the case for months, and these guys thought that they could just march on in and solve it? Yeah, right.
Then, the door opened and in walked the BAU team. It was more or less like the CSI team expected, with a few exceptions.
A petite blonde woman who was very pretty walked right up to Grissom and held her hand out. "Hello, I'm Jennifer Jareu, but you can call me JJ. We spoke on the phone, correct?"
Grissom had indeed spoken to her. Gideon was apparently updating the team on their new case and Jennifer had called him herself.
"Yes, we did. I'm Gill Grissom."
"Nice to meet you."
Nick's Men in Black image walked up to Grissom, face set seriously, looking as if his face hadn't seen a smile since his childhood years. "I'm SSA Aaron Hotchner."
Catherine smirked at him and raised her eyebrows. Well, this was different.
Greg incognito-ly handed Nick a twenty dollar bill as Nick had an evil grin on his face.
Sara tried to contain her scoff.
"This is Agent Prentiss," Hotch introduced as Prentiss came forward to shake Grissom's hand. She was a pretty woman as well, buy different from JJ. She was poised and professional, with dark hair and a pleasant smile.
"-Agent Morgan." Greg looked from Morgan to Nick and back again. They would get along smashingly… Morgan was a large man, dark skinned, and not the kind of person to messed with. Greg decided he would stay out of his way.
"-Agent Gideon, who I believe you already know." Grissom and Gideon nodded curtly to each other and Catherine rolled her eyes from behind Grissom.
"-and Dr. Spencer Reid," Hotch finished. Sara stifled her laugh with a cough, earning her a reproachful stare from Grissom. Dr.? Sara thought Greg looked older than him, and that was saying something. He looked fourteen? How in God's name did he get into the FBI? Nick thought the gun he had on his belt looked largely out of place. Greg smiled to himself. Finally he wouldn't be the only one getting picked on!
Grissom smiled as he remembered Spencer Reid from their previous encounter. Well, he looked a tad bit older, he supposed. The eyes maybe…
Spencer just waved shyly from the back of the group and crossed his arms.
"Thank you for coming out so quickly," said Grissom sincerely. He did appreciate it, despite his idea that they couldn't help too much. "This is Catherine Willows, Greg Sanders, Nick Stokes, and Sara Sidle," said Grissom, nodding to each one of his team members.
"Nice to meet you. So, do you mind filling us in on what you have?" asked Hotch. He was definitely ready to get started…
….
"Six bodies, all young women, found dead in the desert eyeless," muttered Dr. Reid, gazing down at the file in his hands, turning the pages one after the other very quickly.
Nick and Catherine stared at him, mouths agape. "Um, can you really read that fast?" said Nick, eyebrow raised. Spencer looked up, realizing that they were watching him.
"Actually, the human mind is capable of processings-" started Reid.
"Yes, he can read that fast," interrupted Morgan, a smile on his face. Spencer blushed and went back to the file.
"Oh, that's impressive," said Catherine, pouring herself some coffee. This team really was something else…
Just then, Hotch and Gideon entered the room, followed by Grissom.
"We decided to do the latest crime scene together," announced Grissom, cringing as he saw Sara's reaction. He shook his head slightly urging her to keep her mouth shut.
"Sara, you will be with Dr. Reid and Greg out by the dump site." Sara glared at Grissom before going to get her gun and badge from her locker.
"Is she okay?" asked Morgan, motioning towards the back of Sara.
"Better than usual, why do you ask?" said Greg, laughing.
"Morgan, you, Emily and CSI Stokes will head over to the latest victim's family. Garcia is waiting for you to call her with something, so we really need something useful," explained Hotch.
"Who's Garcia?" asked Catherine.
"She's our technical analyst back at Quantico," said Morgan, thinking about his Baby Girl.
"Catherine, you will have to find out what kind of gun was used. The bullet we produced was practically destroyed. You and Agent's Morgan and Gideon will go to see the body as well," said Grissom, sighing. It was a long shot, but at least they had some extra hands.
There was an awkward pause before Morgan said, "So, shall we get started?"
The group got up and divided into their teams, ready to start the investigation.
It was going to be a long day. Grissom could tell.
