Danger

Tenth Chapter: Untitled

---

Unfortunately this is the last chapter to the story… and it’s short. I didn’t know where else to go with it. So this is it. Finally complete!

“H!” Eric yelled running over to Horatio, a paper in his hands. “I found something.”

“268 Starlite street… that’s an abandoned meat factory.” Horatio read the paper.

“A perfect place to hide a bomb and Ryan.”

“Eric… get SWAT and meet me over there.”

Eric nodded.

Horatio and Eric sped down the highway, sirens wailing. When they pulled up, SWAT was already waiting, armed and ready. They circled the factory. SWAT was first to go in. When they cleared it, Eric and Horatio followed. Robert and Ryan were no where to be found. A white piece of paper was taped to the steel wall.

So close Horatio… but no cigar. The clock is ticking. Better hurry.

Eric let out a frustrated groan. “We’re no closer to finding him then when we started!”

“We have three hours left. Isn’t there another abandoned meat factory? We were close if he left a note.”

“Yeah… there’s one a few blocks from here.”

“Let’s go.”

Ryan felt numb. Everything in him had shut down. Part of him was tingling and others felt like a thousand needles were going into him. He couldn’t stand it. He wish the bomb would just go off and put it out of his misery. His wrists were bruised from the tight chains and they dug into him.

The door opened to reveal Horatio and Eric. He sighed in relief. Eric and Horatio quickly freed him. The moment they did, his knees gave out and he fell to the floor. Horatio took off his jacket and put it around Ryan. Ryan was helped up by his friends.

“Thanks.” Ryan smiled.

“Awe! A little reunion.” Robert said from the doorway.

The three CSIs turned around. Robert now had dynamite strapped to his waist. In his hand was the detonator. He smiled crazily at them. His fingers were itching to press it.

“Don’t do it Robert.” Horatio calmly said reaching for his gun on his hip.

“Don’t do it Horatio.” Robert mimicked.

Horatio stopped.

Robert chuckled, “You don’t want to go to hell with me? That hurts me.”

A gunshot rang out. Blood came out of a bullet wound on Roberts chest. He ran his hand over the hole. He just stared at his blood stained hands. He fell to the floor with a dull thud. Horatio stood there, smoking gun in hand. He walked over and pronounced Robert dead.

“You all right?” Horatio asked Ryan.

Ryan simply nodded.

“Let’s get you to the hospital.” Eric said.

As they were leaving, Ryan took one last look at Robert. He felt bad for him even after everything he went through. They used to be friends and Robert turned into a monster.

Pretty crappy ending I know. But I hoped you liked it!
