A couple of minutes later we were on our way to the parking lot, Nick carrying Sara while I held Catherine. It must have looked pretty funny for someone who didn’t know what was going on. But of course there was nothing funny about the situation.

Jenn’s POV

I was so scared during the drive to Lake Mead; I have been to Lake Mead many times and so I could leave clues for Grissom. I hope that he picked up the clues and that he knew where to find us. I quickly put the phone back in my pocket when the car stopped. He told me to get out of the car and open the door to the information centre. I was glad that Lindsey was still unconscious, but it also worried me she had been unconscious for about an hour and she didn’t have any visible wounds. Hopefully she wasn’t hurt internally.

He pushed my inside the information centre and I could feel his gun in my back.

“Put the girl on the floor and sit down on the chair.” I hesitated but his gun made me aware that there was no choice. He tied me down to the chair and then I picked Lindsey up. I begged him not to hurt her, and he disappeared behind a door. Several minutes later he was back with a grin on his face when he saw the fear in my eyes.

Lindsey’s POV

I was scared and I wanted to know where I was. I was crawling over the floor but I couldn’t find an exit. There were only walls and darkness surrounding me.

Chapter 30

The sound of silence

We arrived at the scene where Grissom wanted us to put on bullet proof vests. We immediately obeyed to his wishes while he walked over to Ecklie and the commander of the snipers.

Grissom’s POV

I was dragging my feet over the ground through the sand; I didn’t want to hear what they had to tell me. I just wished that I would wake up from this nightmare, and see that everything was like it was supposed to be. I just wished that I would wake up and go to work tonight and that everyone would be there waiting for me to hand them their assignments. However this was the reality and I had to handle it and I needed to do it right now.
