Alrighty then!! I have written some original Horatio/Calleigh scenes for the show. It's the stuff that you may never see... or will eventually see if I get on the writer's team. :lol: These two scenes were previously posted in the DuCaine shipper thread, but I will post these scenes and all updates to this forum in the future. Have a read, and let me know what you think. Constuctive critiscism please, be completely honest. Thanks guys!! It's the end of a long day. Horatio and the team have apprehended a serial killer, whose victims were young mothers and their children. Using mainly trace and ballistics evidence, the killer is going away for a long time, thanks to the crimelab. Horatio is at home after comforting the family of the killer's final victim, but he's not alone. He's joined by a mystery guest... But who is it?? (Pssst.. you all know who it is, but just to those who wouldn't know... ) FADE IN [INT. HORATIO'S HOUSE -- NIGHT] (There are candles lighting everywhere. Soft music in the background. Various dissolves in and out as the camera moves around the room.) FADE IN (Front shot of Horatio sitting on a leather sofa. Pans in slowly as he starts talking.) HORATIO: It's always the same... everyday. Another scene, another victim... CUT TO: (Camera following a pair of black high heels walking across tiled floor. Horatio continues speaking during this.) HORATIOv.o.) Another murder solved, another funeral. (Cut back to: Camera focusing in slowly on Horatio, panning slightly left.) HORATIO: No matter how hard I try, how much I put into them, these cases always haunt me... CUT TO: (Shot of hands taking out a bottle of wine.) HORATIO: (v.o.) They plague me... and I can't escape... (Cut back to: Camera still panning slowly left of Horatio.) HORATIO: Their families have closure, justice is served... CUT TO: (Two wine glasses being filled.) HORATIO: (v.o.) But I can't help feeling defeated... feeling like a failure. CUT TO: (Horatio in full profile. His eyes close now as he talks.) The pain dives me until it's unbearable... CUT TO: (Half shot of the woman, holding the glasses, walking to the left of the screen. We don't see her face, and she's wearing a black dress.) HORATIO: (v.o.) I strive to make things right, to make this city safer... CUT TO: (Profile shot of Horatio.) HORATIO: It never relents, the endless cycle, it keeps on going. CUT TO: (Woman's hands putting glasses on coffee table. Camera moves towards Horatio, as does the woman, we still don't see her face.) HORATIO: Life doesn't wait for you... that couldn't be truer. (Horatio in focus, the woman sits down beside him. We see that it's Calleigh.) CALLEIGH: I feel the same... (Camera focuses in on her.) CALLEIGH: It doesn't get easier, does it? HORATIO: (leaning forward with a sigh) I just want it to end... I want... (looks at her) the pain to stop. CUT TO: (Front shot of Horatio and Calleigh. As dialogue continues, camera moves in slowly.) CALLEIGH: The pain you feel shows you're human... you have a heart, and that's what I admire about you. (Horatio smiles slightly, leaning back a little. Camera focuses in on him.) HORATIO: Hmmm... you've always cared, Calleigh. (Calleigh leans towards him slightly. Horatio dips his head, eyes downcast.) CALLEIGH: Each day I feel the pain... it pulls my heart... I am letting you know now that you're not alone... the agony you feel... I share it. CUT TO: (Horatio smiling.) HORATIO: I believe you. CUT TO: (Front shot if them both. Camera pans slowly to Calleigh's hands, as she takes his left hand in her own, interlacing their fingers.) HORATIO: (glancing up) Calleigh? CALLEIGH: Horatio? (Close up of them as they smile at each other. Horatio looks down at their hands, and rests his right hand over them. Close up on Calleigh as she smiles even more. Front shot of them as they lean towards each other. They hug.) HORATIO: I love your dress... CALLEIGH: (laughs) You flatterer! But I still think that I don't look good in all-black... HORATIO: (stroking her hair) Once again, sweetheart... (Camera cuts to close up of Calleigh closing her eyes, still smiling. Horatio pulls her back slowly to face him, and rests his forehead against hers.) HORATIO: ... I beg to differ. (They both open their eyes to look at each other. Camera pans slowly backwards. Final shot of Horatio and Calleigh holding each other.) (FADE TO BLACK.) Here's the second scene: Synopsis: Calleigh was involved in a shootout at a crimescene. She is cornered with a rifle pointing at her. Luckily, back-up arrives, with Horatio close behind. She is saved, but is whisked away by EMTs to check her out. Horatio arrests the perp, steaming mad. It's later that day, and Horatio comes by the lab to check on Calleigh. It's late, and the entire lab is empty... What's going to happen?? White flash to: [INT - CRIMELAB - NIGHT] (Shot of Calleigh in the firing range. Camera slowly pans from behind her to in front of her as she fires round after round.)

CUT TO: (Horatio smiling more, raising his hand to the door. He knocks 3 times.) Horatio: Knock, knock, knock. Cut back to: (Calleigh smiling widely now, as she turns back to her gun.) Calleigh: If this gun was loaded... Cut to: (Horatio walking in a few steps.) Horatio: I shudder to think... then again, you are the Bullet Girl... (He reaches a spot a few feet behind her.) Cut to: (Calleigh smiling, still cleaning her gun.) Horatio: (quietly) I'd expect nothing less... (Calleigh puts the gun down, tucking her hair behind her ears, she turns around, leaning against the table.) Calleigh: You sure know how to flatter a girl, Handsome. (Cut to shot of Horatio as he smiles, dipping his head. But he raises it again, serious now.) Horatio: Umm... I just came by... to see how you're doing. (A beat.) Are you okay, Calleigh? Cut to: (Calleigh lowering her eyes. Long beat. She raises her head.) Calleigh: I am, considering... (She bites her lip.) (Horatio steps in a little more, Calleigh plays with her hands,) Horatio: What happened to you was unthinkable... no one should have to go through it... CUT TO: (Calleigh smiling ironically.) Calleigh: I went through it, Horatio. What does that tell you? Cut back to: (Horatio looking at her, hands on his hips.) Horatio: Today tells me that right now... there is a very brave woman standing in front of me... CUT TO: (Calleigh shifting, her face glowing.) Cut back to: (Horatio talking.) Horatio: ... who has overcome everything that was thrown at her... and I am here to tell you, that I'm very proud of you, Calleigh. CUT TO: (Calleigh smiling.) Calleigh: Aw, Horatio... I'm blushing!!

CUT TO: (Horatio, glancing at their hands. He pulls her in a little closer to him. He gently squeezes her hand.) Horatio: You hang in there, Cal. CUT TO: (Calleigh looking down demurely, nodding. She looks up.) Calleigh: (quietly) I will. (Her eyes flick to their hands. Horatio slowly lets her go. Slow-motion shot of their hands parting.) (Shot of Horatio and Calleigh smiling at each other.

Calleigh: Make me strong... don't let go... Horatio... Horatio: Calleigh... (Camera slowly moves back and away from them Several white flashes during the final shot of them, still holding each other in the lab.) (FADE TO BLACK.)

(FADE TO BLACK.) Just a quick note: some of my future scenes may not go in chronological order with this one, but I will do my best to make a decent storyline out of this. Most of them will be kind of one-off's, but I will try to keep some order to them. Tell me what you think... more coming soon!! See ya!!
Hello!! Waiting's over for this installment! I hope it's not too much of a dive, I really like it, and I know for a fact, that something like this will NEVER happen on CSI: Miami! But in CSI: DuCaine, anything's possible!! Lyrics are copyright of Shivaree. The song is called "Goodnight Moon". A stint in the Everglades has left a distinct impression on Calleigh... namely mud and grime! CALLEIGH: The worst crime-scene ever!! I'll never get this gunk outta my hair!! HORATIO: Perserverance pays in the end... and patience is a virtue. CALLEIGH: Easy for you to say! You stood on the bank! HORATIO: (chuckles.) A bit of dialogue from earlier on. Here's the scene now.

He freezes...) (Calleigh starts to sing.) CUT TO: (Horatio in half-focus, then focus in on the door behind him.) CALLEIGH: (singing) There's a nail in the door And there's glass on the lawn Tacks on the floor And the TV is on And I always sleep with my guns When you're gone... (Horatio turns around slowly, a smile spreading across his face. Calleigh's still singing, as Horatio leans back against the wall of the shower-room, listening.) CALLEIGH: There's a blade by the bed And a phone in my hand A dog on the floor And some cash on the nightstand When I'm all alone the dreaming stops And I just can't stand What should I do? I'm just a little baby What if the lights go out And maybe and then the wind just starts to moan Outside the door He followed me home Now goodnight moon I want the sun If it's not here soon I might be done No it won't be too soon 'Til I say Goodnight moon (She hums the riff of the song between verses.

CUT TO: (Horatio standing outside the locker-room, before he heads away, shaking his head and chuckling to himself.) CUT TO: (Locker-room.) (Calleigh emerges from the shower room, fully dressed, looking around.) CALLEIGH: Hmmm... I could've sworn... huh... (She walks out, taking another look around. She shrugs, and is about to leave, when something catches her eye.) CUT TO: (Shot of Horatio's locker-door, fully open.) (Calleigh walks over.) WHITE FLASH TO: (Before she had her shower, she walks by Horatio's locker, and we see that the door was fully closed.) (Calleigh pauses beside the locker door, and she looks down to see Horatio's shirt.) Cut to: (Close-up of her eyes, blinking rapidly. She then smiles secretly, biting her lip, and pulling on her damp hair in her ponytail. Cut to: (Shot of her picking up his shirt, folding it, and putting it back into his locker, shutting the door.

If anyone had any ideas, or would like to make requests for future scenes, I'm open to anything you think up. This is for all DuCaine fans, and I would like to see everyone have some creative input. You can PM me your ideas, or post them in this thread or the DuCaine ship thread. Thank you very much! More coming soon!
Wow what great and intricate scenes you have written, you have a great talent and I think the writing team could use someone like you. Your scenes are so full of passion and feeling that it makes me feel as though I am there watching from the side lines or the veiws in which you exspress certain shots. Once again I say you have a great talent and I can't wait to see more of what you write!
Oh, wow! Thank you all very much!! I'm so glad you enjoy my work. These scenes are the the product of shipping frustration and love for Horatio and Calleigh's relationship. I want to see them in something that can make an impact on someone; something beautiful that is really memorable. I see I've achieved just that! Thanks again for your lovely comments! Another scene is coming up!!
