CSI:NY....."The evil that lives within"

Chapter 20


As Michael drove, he wasn't sure where he was headed, but as he rounded the corner, he came to a little Motel. Parking the car, he went inside, and paid for a room. "Listen...my wife is sound asleep in the car, if I carry her in, could you open the door for me"? "Sure...no prob's man". Opening the door, Michael carried the young girl to the bed, paid the guy a tip, and locked the door.



Walking back into the bedroom, he pulled the cords from the drapes, and bound her arms, to the posts. Leaving the room, Michael sat down, shinning his knife, while watching the news. Waking from her sleep, the young girl realized she was bound to the bed, and began screaming...."help...someone help me". Running into the room, Michael gagged her.



"Shut your mouth, scream again, and I'll kill you understand"? Shaking her head yes, she turned it to the side. Watching her, Michael noticed how beautiful she was, and for the first time, he was becoming excited. Taking his fingers, he touched her neck, causing her flesh to shiver. "You like that, do you like the way I touch you"? Trying to twist away from his touch, was turning Michael on more.



"Mmmm...God you are a sweet one". Taking his knife, he slit her blouse, and exposed her bra, tracing the shape, she turned away, and refused to look at him. "What is this....you dare turn away from me, you dirty bitch, look at me". Looking into her killer's eyes, she knew what was coming, she could see it in his eyes, as the knife went up, plunging down, her world went black.



At the hospital, Danny awoke to Don watching him. "Good morning, how you feeling Danno"? "Sore...very sore". "I have some news for you, the doc's said you can go home today, as long as someone stays with you". "Let me guess, you volunteered yourself"? "I did Danny, I hope that's okay". "As long as I don't have to eat your cooking, it should be alright". "Aww...come on Danno, you love my cooking".



"Hey....you're up, how go's it Danny"? "Better Stella, thanks". "I hear you are getting sprung today". "Yeah...listen....has Lindsay's parents picked her up yet"? "They did Danny, three days ago". "Why didn't anyone tell me"? "I'm sorry Danny, we've all been so busy with this Serial case". "Hmmm...are we any closer to getting him"? "Yes, and no, we've got a picture and a name, from the young waitress, but no luck in finding him".



"Great....how many more girls have to die, before we capture him"? "I know Danny, but he'll slip up again, they always do". "Stella....I need you to come with me, someone said they've seen our suspect". "Okay Mac, Don you coming"? "Yeah....I'll be back Danny, stay put". "Funny Don, like I can really get anywhere".



Heading out, Mac hoped this was the break, they were waiting for.

Chapter 21


When they arrived at the costume shop, Mac showed a picture of Michael, to the cashier. "I'm not sure, he had his head down, I could be wrong, but if it is him, he purchased a brown moustache, and beard". "Okay...thank you for all your help". "You're welcome, I wish I could be sure".



Leaving the store, they headed back to the lab, and had the sketch artist add a beard and moustache to the picture. "This is great, now make his hair, the same color of his beard". "Do you think this is him Mac"? "It could be, I wouldn't be surprised, if he changed his appearance, let's get this picture on the news".



As Michael cleaned up the room, he turned on the TV, and seen his updated picture once again. "Fuck....I gotta get the hell out of here". Looking outside, he seen it was dark enough to leave. Leaving the girl on the bed, covered up, he took off out the door.



Driving away in the car, he knew he had to ditch it, for they would be looking for it. Pulling into a parking lot, across from the Bus Station, he bought a ticket to Miami, leaving NY behind.



"Good job Michael, first thing to do, get a new look, Miami is great for that, so many plastic surgeon's, they'll never catch me now". Laying his head back, Michael fell asleep.



8pm.


They arrived at the Motel, the cleaning staff had called it in. "How long has she been here Sheldon"? "I put her death about four hours ago". "I'll be back, I'm going to see the front desk clerk". Leaving Stella with Don, and Sheldon, Mac headed over to the office.



"Excuse me....I'm Det.Taylor, could you tell me what happened here this evening"? "I'm not sure man, this guy checked in this afternoon, he paid cash, had his beautiful wife with him, I know, cause I had to hold the door open for him".



"Is this him"? "Yeah!! that's the guy, do you think he killed his wife, do you have any idea how this is going to boost my buisness", he smiled. "Pardon me...a young girl was killed, murdered in one of your rooms, and the only thing on your mind is money"? "Yeah man, everyone has to make a living you know".



Mac was sickened, "don't move, I'll be back". Heading back over to the room, Mac recieved a call they had located the car. "Don...Stel...we need to go, they've located the car in a parking lot, across from the bus station". "Oh great... do you think he's left NY"? "I'm not sure yet, that's what we need to find out, and fast".



Heading to the Bus Station, Mac had a feeling they were to late.

Chapter 22


As Mac, Stella and Flack entered the Bus Station, they showed Michael's picture to the teller's.


"Excuse me....could you tell me, have you seen this man, he may have bought a ticket"? "No..sorry, my shift just started, you may want to ask Michelle, she just finished her shift". "Where can we find her"? "Check the little Cafe, she usually heads in there for coffee, before going home".



Entering the Cafe, Mac seen the young girl sitting with some friends. "Excuse me, Michelle"? "Yes". "I'm Det.Mac Taylor, I need to ask you a few questions". "Sure...what about"? "Do you remember serving this man, it may have been about four, to five hours ago"?



Looking carefully at the picture, "I think so, only he didn't have a beard, just a moustache". "Do you remember where he bought his ticket too"? "Ummm...oh yeah, Miami, he was heading for Miami". "Thank you, you've been very helpful". "Now what Mac"? "Now I call Lt.Horatio Caine, and head out to Miami".



When they got back, Mac headed into his office, and called Horatio. "Caine". "Horatio...it's Det.Mac Taylor calling, how are you"? "Mac...I'm fine, and how are you"? "Not good, and I wish I was calling under better terms, but I need to inform you, you have our Serial Killer headed your way". "I'm sorry...". "His name is Michael Steffer, he's already murdered 5 University girls, and one of my detectives".



"I'm sorry to hear that Mac, can you fax us through his picture"? "I can...but he tends to change his appearance, I'll send you what we have, but I need your officer's to check the Bus Station, if my hunch is right, the bus from NY, should be arriving within the next 5 minutes".



"Okay...okay, I'll have Tripp send his officer's, I'll also have my team informed before you arrive". "How did you know, I'd be coming"? "I just knew Mac, it's what we do, hunt down the animal's, that invade our territory". "Thanks Horatio, I should be arriving around 6pm".



After hanging up the phone, Mac headed home to pack, unlocking his door, he found Stella already there, with his bag packed. "Hello my Marine". "Sweetheart...I'm glad you are here, I was hoping I'd have a chance to see you". "Of course I'd be here Mac, I love you, plus I'm not about to let you leave, without saying good bye".



Mac could see her tears forming on her lids. "Come here Stella". Walking over Mac embraced her in his arms, as he whispered...."I promise to be back soon as I can, and I'll stay safe". "I know you will Mac, just know I love you, and will be thinking about you". "I promise to call, when I arrive". Giving her one last long passionate kiss, Mac headed for the Airport.

Chapter 23


When Michael arrived in Miami, he seen the police waiting. "Damn, how did they find me so fast"? Thinking quickly, he hid under the seat, and waited. "Is this everyone on your bus"? "Yes it is officer, why"? "We are looking for someone, this man, by chance was he on your bus"?



Looking over the picture, the driver said..."he was, he was sitting in the back row, you must have missed him". "Okay sir, thank you". As Michael waited for the bus driver to go into the station, he peeked up, and seen the officer's had left his area. Opening the door, he snuck off the bus, and ran down the tunnel, out onto the streets of Miami.



When Horatio showed up with Frank, he asked the officer's...
"did you find him"? "No sir, he wasn't on the bus, or he got off before arriving at the station". "Did you check inside the bus"? "No sir, we did not, for the driver told us, everyone got off". Horatio's face showed his anger, "handle them Frank, I'm going to have a look on the bus".



"We are sorry Lt., we didn't think to look". Stepping onto the bus, Horatio checked under all the seats, and that's when he seen it, the wig, the moustache..."Frank". "What is it "H"? "He's here, son of a bitch is in Miami". "Great...now what"? "Now we put out a bulletin, also, have all your officer's check with the plastic surgeon's, also the gag shops, and costume store's, we don't rest till we find him".



"H"...". "What is it Eric"? "Detective Taylor has arrived, he's outside". "Okay Eric, I'm coming". Exiting the bus, Mac shook hands with Horatio. "Good to see you again Horatio, only wish it was under different circumstance's". "I hear you Mac, but we know for sure your serial is here in Miami, we found these on the bus".



"Have you got anyone on him yet"? "We do, we do, the officer's are searching all the shops, and plastic surgeon's, we'll get him Mac, that much I can promise you". "I hope you're right, because this guy is desperate now, and he's going to kill anyone, that gets in his way". Shaking his head that he understood, Horatio drove Mac over to his Hotel.

Chapter 24


When Mac arrived at the Hotel, he thanked Horatio, and informed him, he'd see him at 6pm. Opening the door, he dropped his bag, and phoned NY.


"Hello". "There's the voice of my Angel". "Mac...hi yourself, how's Miami"? "Lonely without you love". "Awww.. I miss you too my Marine, any luck locating our serial"? "Not yet Stel, though we know he's here, Horatio found part of his disguise on the bus". "But I thought they had police waiting at the bus station"? "They did love, but none of them bothered to check the bus".



"Hmmm...sounds like a bit of incompetence on their part, maybe you need more NY help in Miami". "Funny Stel, but I need you to stay where you are, someone has to take care of our team". "Why thank-you". "You my love, are welcome, I'm going to let you go for now, but before I do, know how much I love you Stella". "I know Mac, I love you too, call again soon". "I will love, bye". "Bye".



After hanging up the phone, Danny asked...."was that Mac, Stel"? "It was, it seems our serial is indeed in Miami". "Great, Mac gets all the action now, and the hot chicks". "Danny...he's not down their for pleasure, he's down their to catch a serial killer". "Geez Stel, little sensitve there, aren't you"? "No Danny, and by the way, don't you have a case that needs your attention"? "Yes maam, on my way".



Back in Miami, Mac had rented a car, and headed down to Miami-Dade lab. As he walked in, he seen Calleigh. "Hiya stranger, nice to have ya back in Miami, how have ya been"? "Great Calleigh, how about you"? "Just great, come on, I'll take to Horatio, he's waiting for you". "Thanks".



"Hi Mac, it's nice to have you back". "Thanks Eric, any word yet Horatio"? "Nothing yet Mac, but we've just gotten started". Feeling the frustration stetting in, Mac took a deep breath, and hoped to hell they would catch him, before he made his first kill, in Miami.



8pm.


He had found a cheap Motel, in the junkie part of Miami, but he didn't care, for it was good enough to do what he had to do. Heading out onto the street, he never seen so many young girls, they were everywhere, and he knew he had his pick. Looking down an Alley, he seen two young girls, prostituting, walking up, he offered her $100 bucks, for services.



Walking with her back to his Motel, he unlocked the door, and told her to wait in the bedroom, while he went into the washroom, and pulled out his knife, hiding it in his pants, he headed back out, and found her sitting on the bed. "Is it okay, if I tie your hands, and legs"? "Mmm...kinky one eh...sure, it's your $100 bucks".



Making sure she was bound good and tight, he forced a gag into her mouth, pulled out his knife, raised it in the air, said a prayer, and plunged it straight into her aorta, watching her bleed out, he sat upon her, and bathed his naked body in her blood.

Chapter 25


They recieved the call at 3am, from the Motel manager, as they arrived on scene, they seen him being sick. "Oh Christ, I've never seen anything like that, room 102". Leaving Calleigh to get information from the manager, Mac, Horatio, Frank and Eric, headed down to the room.



"Oh my God...Christ, what the hell", said Eric, as he seen the blood all over the walls, and bedding. "Easy Eric...I need you to process". "Sure "H", sorry, it's just...". "I know Eric, I know". "Good God Horatio, what are we dealing with", asked Alexx as she entered the room.



Looking over the body, Alexx took a body temp. "TOD between 8 or 9pm, straight plunge through to the aorta, this was a quick kill Horatio, what kind of animal, are we dealing with"? "A sick one Alexx, a very sick one". Giving the hauler's the okay to take the body, Alexx headed back to the morgue.



Meanwhile....Michael was sitting in a dark end of the bar, having a drink. "Christ Michael, you need to find a disguise, and quick". Seeing the girl sitting across from him, he asked...."could you tell me, is there a costume shop around here".



Laughing the girl replied...."this is Miami, you'll find lots of shops here, there is actually one open 24 hours, just two blocks from here, you should have a look, it's really cool". "Thanks...would you like to come with me"? "Ummm...no thanks, I'm meeting some friends here, but thanks for the offer".



Swallowing his drink, Michael headed down the street, until he seen the sign, walking into the store, he noticed two officer's asking the cashier questions. "Have you seen this man, he may have been here, please look carefully, at the picture's". "I'm sorry, I haven't seen anyone who looked like him, beleive me, I'd remember him, as I've seen it all over the news".



Thanking the girl, the officer's left the shop. Keeping his head low, Michael walked up to the counter, pulled out his knife, and slit the girls throat. "Sorry...I had no choice, I need a disguise, concider yourself lucky, you got off easy", he whispered to her. Grabbing a short black wig, some green contacts, he changed and left the shop.
