Note: As for tonights episode, wonderful. Everything, just wonderful, the story line, acting, just couldn't be better. And I guess I was partically right on the whole back story with Evan. Someone died that he was supposed to be taking care of which made him change careers. I mean I guess I was kinda close...in a way...-ish...Oh, and the promo, it is going to be fun to tie those clips in... As far as this story...yeah I don't know where I was going with that so uh...yeah. Hope you like it!

I DO NOT OWN BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Chapter 53

Catherine glared at the woman. "What the hell?"

Claire raised her gun and pointed it at Catherine's chest. "He doesn't come with me...I shoot you..."

"You shoot her I'll snap your neck!" Vincent growled trying to keep himself calm.

"Then what if I shoot you both?" The Claire asked raising an eye brow.

Vincent let out another growl and was about to move forward when Catherine grabbed his arm. "Vincent..." she whispered only loud enough for him to hear.

"I'm sure that Evan will be thrilled to know that you knew about Vincent here all along."

"How about the bitch he was dating also knew huh?" Catherine snapped.

"What Evan doesn't know wont hurt him." Claire smiled. "Besides, things between me and him...couldn't be better." She paused and looked down at her gun. "And with you out of the picture...he's all mine."

Vincent let out another growl but Catherine tightened the grip around his arm.

Claire smiled as two other men walked up beside her. "Last chance. You give me Vincent or well...you know."

Neither Catherine or Vincent moved when one of the men raised his gun and shot it towards Catherine's shoulder. As Catherine grabbed her shoulder with her hand as the impact pushed her to the ground. Vincent let the best take over and lunged towards the man who shot at Catherine. He quickly grabbed the man's arm and twisted it behind his back causing it to snap in half. The other man kicked at the beast side making Vincent quickly turn to snap his neck in half. Once the man fell life less to the ground he turned around to do the same to the other one. After both men were lying motionless he ran over to Catherine's side. "Catherine!" He said knealing down next to her.

She slowly got up and rubbed her hand across her shouler. "I'm fine."

"Did they shoot you?!" Vincent asked in a panicky tone.

Catherine shook her head and looked towards Vincent. "Made it by this much." She said holding up her hand with thumb and her index finger only about a centimeter apart.

Vincent sighed of relief as Catherine smiled. Her smiled then quickly fell. "Vincent?" she asked while making a concerned face. "Where's Claire?"

Evan walked into the morgue and took off his jacket.

"Guess what." Gabe said looking at his computer.

"What?" Evan asked turning towards Gabe.

Gabe picked up a small black object and tossed it to Evan.

Evan examinded the bug and then looked up at Gabe. "Whats this for?"

"Well what does it look like it's for?" Gabe asked.

Evan looked back down at the bug.

"I found it this morning...and I don't think it's yours."

Evan placed it back down on the desk. "Well you got that right, but why would someone bug the morgue?"

Gabe sighed and leaned back in his chair. "We are doing research on a very big topic with lots of evidence. Why wouldn't someone wanna bug it. Remember we present this to the government, my colleges, and the FBI, we show them that there is a mutating Beast-like-man in New York...we get paid...lots. And there are people out there who would kill for that kind of money."

"Yeah but who would know?" Evan asked. "I mean it's not like any one else here knows about the research we're doing."

Gabe let out another sigh. "That's we're your wrong..."

"You told people?" Evan asked in a frustated tone.

Gabe shook his head. "No of course not, we both did."

Evan gave Gabe a very confused look.

"Catherine..."

Evan laughed. "No, this doesn't belong to Cat."

"Then run it through a DNA check." Gabe said.

Evan picked up the small bug. "Fine."

After about 15-or-so minutes of waiting the DNA finally came through along with a picture and name of the person.

"Whoa.." Gabe said looking at the picture. "That is not Cat. Cat's not that hot."

Evan's eyed widened. "Oh my god..."

Gabe smiled. "I know right...just wait 'till we get her down here."

Evan continued to stare at the picture. "Gabe...I know her."

Catherine and Vincent walked up the porch steps of the cabin.

"Where the hell could she have gone?" Catherine asked.

Vincent pushed his hair back with his hands. "I have no idea, I didn't even hear her heart beat...then again all my focus was on those bastards who tried to shoot you."

Catherine smiled. "Well I appreciate that, thank you."

Vincent sighed. "Which mean's she's still out here."

"Lets just focus on getting back. She could be anywhere by now." Catherine said.

Vincent swallowed. "Fine."
