Re: Gone Missing at a Connvention.
((Okay, yes, that helps a bunches. I was just a little unsure about how Horatio should react. I thought that if it was before, he would, of course, hand over his shirt. If it was afterwards, however, he would be a little more concerned for Calleigh, since Lindsay already had Warrick and Danny helping her.. Thanks a lot, chickie.

Horatio immediately started unbottoning his navy blue shirt, leaving him in his black slacks and a white beater. A shiver ran up his spine from the cold, but he didn't have time to think about it. He went over to Lindsay, who was bleeding profusely from her head wound. He wrapped his shirt carefully, but firmly around her head, pressing on the wound.
Eric was just about to turn around to leave, after dumping Lindsay's body in the room when Horatio stood up and cut Delko with his words..
"Hey, Delko, I was there when your best friend died. Don't you hate that you weren't there? That must have been rough, hearing from me that your best friend was dead," it hurt Horatio to say those words, but he had to try to lure Eric in... He saw that Calleigh was about to slip through the door to freedom and safety. Unfortunately, so did Eric. Without warning, he grabbed her beautiful blonde hair and jammed a gun into her cheek.
"Woah, easy Delko, easy. I'm the one you want. Remember, I was there. You don't want Calleigh or Lindsay. You want me. If you let her go, I will leave quietly. You know me, Eric, you know that I will," Horatio tried to reason with his twisted ex-coworker. "Just calm down. What did any of these people do to you? I took everything from you. It's my fault your best friend is dead. It's my fault your sister is dead. I should have protected them better. Leave these people out of it. Come on, Eric, just let them go."
