A/N Hey, one of the 60 second series. I think we all know with the upcoming season, Horatio and Delko are on a manhunt in Brazil. The aftermath and consequences of Delko snapping and killing someone in cold blood.

60 seconds to Regret

1.

"This is for Mari."

2.

The gun discharges soon after

3.

The vengeful words

4.

Gun powder sprays in several directions

5.

Peppered with the red of blood

6.

In an impromptu fireworks display

7.

Eric blinks

8.

Reality hasn't sunk in yet

9.

Horatio knocks his gun out of his hand

10.

It clatters against the ground

11.

Eric still doesn't understand but

12.

Impending doom begins to creep up on him

13.

"Eric!"

14.

His name

15.

He turns

16.

His eyes widen

17.

Innocent, clear

18.

Unaware of his surroundings

19.

Horatio looks at him

20.

With despair and

21.

Concern

22.

"Eric, that…"

23.

"That is not how we do things."

24.

Delko looks

25.

To the man on the ground

26.

He freezes

27.

Unable to cock his head

28.

Raise an eyebrow

29.

He forgets

30.

To breathe

31.

Anger and fury

32.

Washes out of him

33.

His hand begins to shake

34.

His feet trip over

35.

One another

36.

Time seems to crawl like molasses

37.

When it flies by

38.

He shakes his head now

39.

He stumbles, falls

40.

His eyes widen

41.

He would babble

42.

But his throat's closed up

43.

He looks to Horatio, hoping

44.

That this is a dream

45.

That it can be fixed

46.

He only sees

47.

His mentor shake his head

48.

The truth hits him in the gut

49.

He realizes he smells blood

50.

Covering him jealously

51.

The man is dead

52.

His life over so quickly

53.

Delko's gun pointed right at his head

54.

This is my fault

55.

I did this wrong

56.

Very wrong

57.

Eric looks at this killer

58.

This scum

59.

And realizes that now,

60.

They have become the same
