Sara´s POV
As shot was fired and Catherine screamed after that everything was silent. I didn’t even know that it could be so silent outside. I was holding Catherine with all my might, I wanted confirmation about that shot before I let her go.
Ecklie came running over to the small group of devastated people anxiously waiting to hear what happened.
“One of the snipers shot the man, they are going in now to secure the scene. We can go in when they get out.”
“Lindsey?”
“I haven’t had a confirmation on her yet, I’m sorry they are searching for her.”
Catherine freed herself from my embrace and ran down to the information center, quickly followed by Grissom, Nick and Warrick. Ecklie handed me my crutches that where on the ground and I slowly moved towards the center. Fearing the worst but hoping for the best.
Catherine´s POV
First thing that I saw when I opened the door to the information center was that bastard lying on the floor in a pool of blood. Then I saw my sister, her face was pale and in shock. Two officers where opening her chains, she looked up and saw me. She nodded telling me that she was alright. I asked if they had found Lindsey, but all I got in return where sad looks. A man walked up to me and told me that they where searching for her. I asked for his flashlight, I wanted to search for her. I wanted to be the first person that she saw. He handed it to me, but he hesitated.
“You better give her the flashlight, she will be searching anyway, with or without it.” Warrick’s warm voice said.
“He walked through that door with Lindsey,” Jenn said while she pointed at one of the doors in the office. “Catherine, she probably doesn’t know what happened she was unconscious the whole time. I couldn’t find any wounds, maybe he used some kind of fluid. I don’t know, I haven’t seen it happen. Catherine, I’m sorry!”
I stepped towards the door and opened it, I turned the flashlight on. Warrick followed me. I started caling (calling) out Lindsey’s name and I hoped to hear a response from her. However, there was no other sound then the sound that Warrick and I produced.
Sara´s POV
Ecklie opened the door to the information center for me, and I stepped inside. Jenn stood up from her chair, and stepped towards me. We embraced each other.
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah, just some cuts and bruises nothing bad actually.” I saw her wrists covered in blood, the rope made cuts in her wrists. I asked for an Emergency Kit and someone handed it to me. I sat down on the chair and started to wrap Jenn´s wrists in bandages.
“How’s Catherine holding up?”
“Bad, but she will be okay when she holds Lindsey in her arms.”
Lindsey’s POV
I was sitting in a corner against the wall when I heard a popping sound in the silence. A couple of minutes later I heard some footsteps, but I was afraid to call out to them. Maybe it was the man I saw in Jenn´s house.
I waited and listened if I heard anything else, suddenly I heard my mom calling out my name. Was I hallucinating or was she really calling my name?
I moved closer towards the noise and listened carefully.
“Lindsey, Lindsey!” I heard it again, and this time I knew for sure that it was my mom.
“Mom, mom I’m here please don’t leave me?” I screamed while I slammed my hand against the wall.
There was a complete silence on the opposite site of the wall when I started calling out again.
I was answered by my mother’s voice.
“Lindsey, Lindsey oh my God are you okay?”
“I guess, mummy it’s dark and I can’t find an exit.”
“Hold on baby. Warrick, Nick and Grissom are searching for a way in, and we bring down the walls if we have to. Just don’t worry sweetie.”
Catherine´s POV
“Nick can you tell Sara and Jenn that we found Lindsey and that she’s okay?”
“Yep sure no problem.” He ran off and within minutes, the corridor was covered in people walking around with lamps trying to find a way in. I was pacing up and down the corridor when I heard Grissom calling my name. I ran over to him and he grabbed my hand.
“She’s probably down there he said, while he pointed at the door in front of him, but watch your step, there are a few steps missing in that the stairs.”
We followed our way down the stairs and at the bottom, there was an other corridor. I couldn’t wait and walked further until I found an other door I opened it and I called out Lindsey’s name and it sounded as if she was only a meter away.
The light of my flashlight followed the wall and there she was my little girl. She ran over to me when she saw me.
She fell into my arms and we started crying again. Grissom walked back to the stairs and called out that we found her. I slowly stood up and Lindsey wrapped her legs around my hips. I carried her up the stairs, and into the information center. Sara and Jenn where sitting on the chairs waiting to see Lindsey. A paramedic was pleading to Jenn that he wanted to see her wounds but she refused.
“No I want to see my niece first, I don’t care about my wounds. It’s only cuts and bruises anyway.”
Sara looked up and saw me standing in the door opening with Lindsey in my arms, her troubled face disappeared like snow to the sun.
