Prologue

The crime scene had been in the middle of the desert. "A male, approximately 25 to 30, dark brown hair, tall, not well built…estimated T.O.D. to be 48 hours ago." She continued to listen to the detective give her the basics as she stepped up next to the body slipping on latex gloves. "Mountain bikers found him…" He gestured to a couple who were talking to the other detective and Catherine Willows. She kneeled next to the body and scanned his body with her eyes, scars, punctures; it would be hard to figure out what the cause of his death. Then it happened, a flash out of the corner of her eyes and then, as fast as it flicked, it was gone.

Getting to her feet, she spotted Catherine still talking to the mountain bikers with Captain Jim Brass and there were cadets searching the land for anymore bodies. As she scanned the landscape, she saw it again, it flashed something metallic, and then it was gone again. Not waiting to think herself crazy, she walked in the direction of the appearing and disappearing object. She flashed her flashlight in front of her at a wide expanse in front of her. The light rippled and reflected as it hit, confused and curious, the scientist in her forced her to move forward until the reflected and rippling light was only inches from her hand. She heard someone calling her name somewhere behind her, but the pull in front of her was strong. Her hand slipped past the ripples of light and she saw no more.

"When was the last time she was seen? What was she doing? and Who was she with?" Grissom wrote those simple words, When, What, and Who on the glass beneath a picture of a brunette woman. "Anyone?" The strawberry blonde at the other end of the table looked up, guilt and grief making her face seems years older than it actually was.

"The Field Drop Crime Scene…I though she had gotten a lead of some sort off the DB and was following it." Catherine paused. "We were at the crime scene together but no one was with her when she wandered off." Everybody heard the guilt in her voice as she finished. "We searched the entire area, Gil, there are no tire tracks, and the only shoeprints there are all accounted for." She paused. "There's nothing to go on." Just then, the door opened and a woman was let in by the lab tech gone CSI Greg Sanders. The first to say anything was the tall black man who cleared his threat getting Gil Grissom to say something.

"I'm sorry to bother you, but I'm here to a Mr. Grissom about a possible abduction." The woman said. Grissom looked at her and nodded before leading her to his office, leaving his CSI team to sit and grieve over the loss of their friend and coworker. He motioned for her to sit and she smiled before sitting. "Mr. Grissom, I'm Special Agent Monica Reyes with the FBI…" She knew that all he needed was her name, he knew everything else. "About Ms. Sara Sidle's disappearance, what can you tell me about it?"

"Well…I suspect Mulder still chases aliens?"
