"God dammit Cath, do you want more people hurt or what?" Grissom screamed.

"He said that she was thrown out, just around the corner. Well I was just driving around the corner." she said as she opened the door and jumped out of the car.

The light of her torch shone across the sides of the road when all of the sudden she saw something lying in the dark. She moved the light circle in that direction and saw Sara. She didn’t react to the light and she still didn’t move when Catherine called her name.

"Brass call an ambulance, I found Sara!" Grissom ran toward her, and Cath moved towards Sara fearing the worst. Oh God, don’t let her die.

She fell down on her knees next to Sara and grabbed her hand, she felt her pulse beating slowly. But at least it was beating.

She grabbed Sara’s shoulder and turned her on her back, Sara moaned in pain. She opened her eyes a little.

"C…Cath…" I said as her face appeared in front of me. She was crying, why was she crying?

"L…Lind…sey?"

"Don’t worry about Lindsey, we have to worry about you!" Cath said and a tear fell off her cheek on to my face. I closed my eyes.

"Sara, don’t go to sleep, stay with me, talk to me. I need you." She bent down and I felt her lips placing a kiss on my cheek.

"Hold on baby, hold on." She whispered.

"Pain…"

Grissom sat down on my left side and asked me where pain was.

"Ribs… shoulder… my head and my leg."

He asked me whether I he could examine me. I nodded my head and he lifted my shirt. Cath gasped as she saw my ribs. Grissom gently touched my ribs and I screamed in pain. Tears were streaming down my cheek.

“Stop, Grissom don’t you dare touch her again, she has had enough pain.” Cath defended Sara. Sirens were howling in the night, as the ambulance quickly approached. Brass’ phone rang and he picked it up.

"Yes, we found her, we’re waiting for the ambulance. Well she’s conscious that’s all I can say so far. She needs a lot of medical attention. Did you get the SOB who did this?"

At that moment, the ambulance stopped at the scene. The paramedics jumped out, one approached them and asked me if I knew what had happened.

I nodded my head.

“She knows what happened, give her something for the pain.” Cath defended me.

They put a mask over my face to help me breathe better, the paramedic smiled at me and told me that I would be alright.

I closed my eyes; I was too tired to stay awake. Just wake me up when this nightmare is over. Here I was, next to a road, on the grass, in more pain then I ever imagined possible. Cath and Grissom arguing, Nick and Warrick following the ***** who did this and I just wanted to sleep.

The paramedic told me to stay awake, and Cath was holding my hand while he examined my body. Searching for internal bleeding, broken bones and wounds.

“You have a dislocated shoulder, some contused ribs, a broken leg and a cut on your head. Do you feel pain anywhere else?”

“P… Pain every… where…” I said while I looked at Cath, she was still holding my hand and I saw a tear sparkle in her eyes.

“Okay,” he said, ”this is going to be painful but there is no other way to do it, believe me if we could we would do it. We have to support your back, ‘cos there might be damage from the fall, this is only a precaution, but we have to support your back with a backboard and then we can put you down on the stretcher and send you to the ER. Do you understand what I’m telling you?” I nodded but I feared the pain, I didn’t think that I would be able to handle the pain.
