Thanks for the awesome reviews. :D

THE ENFORCER. :lol: Katie, you are terrific.

****************

Bio Lab

Horatio: *looks at files* Pack rat, isn't he?

Speed: Yeah his entire desk is like that. You think we'll find any information that might lead us to him?

Horatio: Well this seems like the kind of thing that he would plan out so I'm betting he wrote it down.

Speed: Explains why Martino might come back. Grab the list from Karden's desk.

Horatio: Mhm.

Lori: *walks in*

Horatio: *looks up*

Lori: The place is secure.

Horatio: Thank you Lori.

Speed: Are you absolutely sure?

Lori: No, I walked around the building smelling flowers and kissing puppies. There's no one out there.

Horatio: *mumbles* I wonder where she gets that from.

Lori: *places hands on hips* You have something to say, Red?

Speed: *looks at Lori* Hey.

Lori: *clears throat* Nevermind.

Horatio: *picks up paper*

Speed: You got something?

Horatio: Yes, it appears to be some sort of list. One freezer, clean guns...Kill bitch.

Speed: Which one?

Lori: Excuse me?

Horatio: Hard to say.

Speed: Freezer. Okay so they're storing the blood somewhere else and not in a lab.

Horatio: Mhm.

Speed: The only place they'd be able to sell that would be the black market.

Door clicks

Horatio: *looks at door*

Speed: *looks at door*

Horatio: Speed...

Speed: *pulls out gun*

Horatio: *pulls out gun* Cover me.

Speed: You got it. Lori, stay.

Lori: No way. *pulls out gun*

Speed: Do not move.

Lori: And miss all the action?

Speed: I told you to stay there.

Lori: I'm not going to sit around while you get to cap some guy's ass.

Horatio: Enough. *walks forward*

Speed: *follows*

Lori: *shakes head, walks back to desk*

Hall

Horatio: *looks around*

Shadow appears behind corner

Horatio: *walks to corner*

Speed: You see that?

Horatio: *nods* Yeah, I saw it. *walks*

Around corner, shots ring out

Lab

Lori: *looks at door*

Karden: *pointing gun at Lori* Pablo was right, you are pretty. Drop the gun.

Lori: *places gun on floor, stands back up*

Karden: It's a shame, too.

Lori: Oh?

Karden: From what Pablo's told me about you, you're quite the woman.

Lori: And how in the hell would he know?

Karden: He knows where you live and the men you bring over to your house.

Lori: Well you know what they say about the cat and his curiosity.

Karden: *walks closer* Y'know, I like you. You have a certain spunk about you. Very appealing.

Lori: Yeah well you have a certain stink about you which isn't.

Karden: *frowns, swings gun*

Lori: *ducks, kicks Karden*

Karden: AH! *falls backward*

Lori: *grabs at gun*

Karden: *steps on Lori's hand*

Lori: *screams*

Karden: *knees Lori in the face*

Lori: *falls over*

Karden: *points gun at Lori*

Lori: Oh so this is what I get for staying. I could have been riddled by bullets in the next room but no, I'm stuck with a lab guy who has bad aim and bad odour.

Karden: You're a little bitch, you know that?

Lori: People say.

Karden: *places finger on trigger*

Lori: *kicks Karden*

Karden: AH! *drops gun*

Lori: *stands, grabs Karden by the hair* Put your hands behind your fugly back and don't move.

Karden: Or what? You'll kill me?

Lori: No but I can make this very painful for you. You ever had five inch heels shoved up your ass?

Karden: *stares blankly*

Lori: *grabs zip-ties*

Hall

Horatio: *places hands on hips*

Speed: *stands* You get him?

Horatio: I believe so. *kicks gun away from Martino*

Speed: *lifts side of coat* Glass in his jacket.

Horatio: Well there's our missing viles.

Speed: Yeah.

Lori: *walks over* The lab rat's in the other room hog tied.

Speed: *looks at Lori*

Lori: Don't worry, I didn't kill anyone. Although he does smell kind of ripe.

Lab room

Horatio: Your partner's dead.

Karden: So?

Horatio: So this is all on you now.

Karden: What are you talking about? All I did was crash my car.

Speed: And you murdered your co-worker.

Karden: Hey man I can't help what happens after I crash.

Horatio: You also stole two viles of rare mink blood.

Karden: We were going to sell it on the black market. It was a 50/50 split. I gave him the viles, he gave me the money while I sat back.

Horatio: Well now you're going to sit back in prison, get up. *grabs Karden*

Karden: AH! AH! Man that hurts.

Horatio/Karden leave

Lori: *places gun in holster*

Speed: Good work.

Lori: Looks like you got your man. Dead, nonetheless.

Speed: We had no choice.

Lori: I know. I just wish I could have killed that dumbass lab guy.

Speed: You could have but you didn't.

Lori: *nods* Yeah well I didn't leave him alive because you told me not to murder anyone, I just didn't want to get his blood all over these clean clothes.

Speed: *smirks* Right.

Lori: Let's get out of here already.

Speed: I'm proud of you.

Lori: *rolls eyes* Ah don't say that. Now I have a reputation.

Speed: Alright, forget I said it.

Lori: Thank you.

Speed: So I guess this means you're going back to Colombia.

Lori: *lowers head* Um....

Speed: What.

Lori: I've been thinking about this whole thing. I have a house there, but...I have a home here. My family is here.

Speed: *nods*

Lori: But my job is there. I love those people and I want to keep helping them. *sigh*

Speed: It's okay, Lori. Any decision you make will be fine.

Lori: I don't know what to do.

Speed: Well you're welcome to stay at my place for a few days until you figure it out.

Lori: Thanks.

Speed: Come on.

TBC...............
 
Five inch heels sho...ouch. not good. :lol:

Nice, some kick ass action. And about the part before that: :eek: Speedle! Aw that is so so so sad. Angsty Whore you :p Poor Josh too.

The Christmas mobile? Priceless. It's like the batmobile but...lighter and more colorful. Love it. I agree with...(was it Lilly?) though that Horatio is not going to like that when he finds out. But right now they need to find Ethan!
 
OK, well, I'm back from camp with a newly reconstrcuted butt :p And yay! updates!

Gasp!! JOSHIE! YAY! I mean, don't get me wrong, gay Josh is awesome, but ""gay, leaving me and going to New York and getting my kids stolen by his pedophile boyfriend"" Josh is not so cool. But still YAY! JOSHIE!, but still NO! Ethan! he's not evil anymore...he's cute now...We must find him! *pumps fist*...ok, I'll shutup, I think camp made me a little crazy...

Woah, poor Lori...how many times does that kid die/almost die? Tough little thing...but awww, Speed is so cute! All...fatherly and whatnot. Hee :D

ROAD TRIP! Woo! But we don't have Costcos over here...I'm guessing it's some sort of...ok, I have no idea what it is. Hee, road trips are awesome! But I don't think Horatio is going to be too happy...maybe we should just get him high again ;)

Please update soon! (even though I'm gonna be gone for another three days on my own little Road Trip :D)
 
Welcome back Carly. Costco is like the super-store, with everything you could ever want and more. And it's so much fun.

That was awesometastic action going on, with Lori, and five inch heels...I don't even want to know; but she was awesome. And she didn't kill that asshole, maybe she's starting to change, be less of a rebel...I'll miss the old Lori in that case. But that scene with her and Speed, great. 'I'm proud of you' reminds me of what he said when he was with her in the morgue after she 'died' because he never (did he?) really say it when she was alive, and now he's making more of an effort. YAY for Speed!

Awesome update Geni, please update soon! :D
 
Awwww I love the little father daugter moments. That whole scene with LOri and Karden. See I told you Lori The Enforcer! I'm glad you think i'm terrific, Geni. At least somebody does *hugs*

I'm glad that whole case is solved and that Martino is dead and Karden's going to jail. Great work. Update soon please.
 
What a great way to end a case, and Lori didn't even kill anyone! Gotta love the father / daughter moment, and the fact that Horatio made the comment, " I wonder where she gets that from..." :lol: that was a great moment indeed.


As always, great update! Waiting for more!
 
Aww Carly, you're always gettin' your butt reconstructed. You must be a billionaire. :lol: :p

*hugs Katie* YOU ARE TERRIFIC!

Thanks for the reviews everyone. :D

*****************

Apartment, 9pm

Anni: Hey welcome back. *kisses Speed*

Speed: Hey.

Anni: Oh hi Lori.

Lori: *nods*

Speed: It's not a problem if she stays for a couple of days, right?

Anni: Not at all.

Speed: Great. I'll be in the shower.

Anni: A shower this late?

Speed: Yeah. *leaves*

Lori: *crosses arms*

Anni: Would you like anything to eat?

Lori: *shakes head*

Anni: Anything to drink?

Lori: Do you have alcohol?

Anni: No.

Lori: Then no, I'm good.

Anni: *smiles* Well, um...Would you like anything else?

Lori: No.

Anni: Oh...Uh...

Lori: Look, I don't like you, you don't like me, we both know it so why don't we cut the niceties.

Anni: What makes you think I don't like you?

Lori: *stares at Anni* Well I don't like you.

Anni: Why?

Lori: I don't know, maybe I always pictured my parents together. Not my dad and some bimbo.

Anni: Excuse me?

Lori: Well you sure swooped in when she left him!

Anni: Yeah she left him because they weren't happy, Lori. You really wanted themn to stay with each other when they weren't happy?

Lori: Yeah well it looks like you fixed that problem.

Anni: I loved him for a long time.

Lori: Yeah, whatever.

Anni: Fine! The only reason I got together with him was so I could sleep with him, are you happy?

Lori: Funny.

Anni: I married him because I love him. I didn't 'swoop' in. I know you wish your parents were still together but it didn't turn out that way and I'm sorry. But we're happy and you'll have to learn to accept it.

Lori: I might accept it, but I don't have to like you.

Anni: No one said you did and I'm not trying to be your mother.

Lori: I never said you were.

Anni: Well good.

Lori: Good.

Anni: *nods*

Lori: *frowning*

Anni: You still hate me.

Lori: You betcha.

Anni: Okay. I guess we can work around this.

Lori: How.

Anni: Well....We can pretend to be nice around your father and continue hating each other when he leaves.

Lori: Deal.

Speed: *walks in*

Anni: How was your shower?

Speed: ...Fine.

Anni: Lori and I were just having a conversation about how much she's going to miss us when she goes back to Colombia.

Speed: Really.

Lori: *smiles* Yeah. *sits at table*

Anni: *sits*

Speed: Well...That's good I guess. *sits*

Lori: Anni's the best isn't she? *sigh* Gosh she's...Wow. Really, she's the best.

Speed: Oh. Yeah, she is.

Anni: *smiling* And I admire Lori. She's such a spitfire and her attitude is just...Well gee she's just an excellent woman.

Speed: *looks at Lori*

Lori: *hugs Anni* I love you.

Anni: Aww I love you too.

Speed: ...Okay you can cut it out. I might have been in the shower but the walls aren't soundproof.

Lori: *lets go*

Anni: *frowns*

Speed: No one said you had to like each other.

Lori: *sits closer to Speed* I'm not getting within two feet of her.

Anni: Good, I don't want to be within two feet of you either. Even though I used to take care of you and feed you cookies and cheez-its and I sat you down to watch cartoons while your mother was in the hospital in a coma and your dad was freakin' out of his mind but HEY don't thank me.

Speed: I was...What?

Anni: And Lori, I made sure you were safe and you were happy but oh no. No, because that doesn't matter now. You probably don't even remember it.

Lori: *frown fades*

Speed: Looks like you two have things under control. *stands, leaves*

Anni: I'm just trying to be nice and I get slapped down for it.

Lori: I...Didn't know you did all of that.

Anni: It doesn't matter.

Lori: It does. I had no right to be rude to you. I'm sorry.

Anni: *stares at Lori*

Lori: Um...Thank you. For doing that.

Anni: It wasn't a problem.

Lori: *hugs Anni*

Anni: *lifts brow*

Lori: I'm really sorry.

TBC...................
 
Awww...revelations being made, and Anni and Lori are tight again. That was a bit weird though how it was Lori who made the big hug move thing. But she's changing, right? I sort of like the new Lori but don't know what to expect. Oh well, keep me guessing!

Awesome! :D
 
Wow, didn't think that Lori really hated me that much... What a revelation! But , I must say, the deal being struck between us was somewhat of a truce, even though it didn't fly. The ending of it was sweet, but a little unnerving- badass Lori is now sentimental... That will take some getting used to :lol: I loved how Tim just got up and left, leaving us to our own devices. That cracked me up big time!

I love every twist and turn of this! Can't wait for more!
 
It's so cool that Anni and Lori are getting along now, maybe now they've got all their disagreements out in the open it's helped them see alot more clearer.

update soon Geni.
 
I'm here. Having connectivity problems. Just want to say great updates and update soon. :D *submits before he disconnects again* :(
 
Welcome back Lora. :)

Sorry about your internet problems, Colton. :eek: *huggles*

And sorry I didn't update today. :eek: But thank you for the wonderful reviews!

***************

Miami Lab, Next morning

Horatio: *fiddles with shades* I understand you're in a bit of a situation.

Josh: *nods*

Horatio: How much luck have you had so far?

Josh: I found out who has him and where he was last seen. Here in Miami. His name's Ernest.

Horatio: And you two were together.

Josh: A long time ago.

Horatio: You know the odds aren't in our favor.

Josh: That's why I need your help.

Horatio: I'll see what I can do but without much of a lead-

Josh: I understand.

Calleigh: *walks over* Hey, what's goin' on?

Horatio: Calleigh, would you mind helping out on a case?

Calleigh: Uh...Actually I was just assigned to a different case but Eric's here and he's free.

Horatio: *nods* Okay, send Eric.

Calleigh: No problem. Good to see you again, Josh.

Josh: Likewise.

Calleigh: *walks away*

Horatio: Where in Miami was he last seen?

Josh: The club I was at earlier.

Horatio: You talk to anyone?

Josh: Not exactly.

Horatio: You got into a fight.

Josh: This is my son we're talking about here. I'll kill people to get to him.

Horatio: Well hold off on that for now.

Josh: Yeah.

Horatio: Come on, let's go get Eric and head back to the club.

Trace Lab

Speed: *looking through microscope*

Lori: *walks in* Martino's body is being transported to Colombia. Karden's still in holding.

Speed: Good.

Lori: Look, I want to apologize for yesterday.

Speed: Yeah well you made up with Anni so it all worked out.

Lori: No, not about that. I mean, we butt heads a lot. I didn't mean to go against you in the layout room when we were discussing the case. It's just that in Colombia we have customs.

Speed: *lifts head* Yes you did.

Lori: ...What?

Speed: You did mean to disagree with me.

Lori: Yeah well I figured I'd apologize anyway.

Speed: Is that because you're leaving?

Lori: *lowers head*

Speed: Trying to make amends in case you don't come back?

Lori: Yeah.

Speed: Lori just say what you're thinking. You always do, so there's no point in stopping now.

Lori: You still treat me like a child.

Speed: You are my child.

Lori: When are you going to learn to accept that I'm an adult and I can make my own decisions?

Speed: Because you can't seem to make your own decisions. You got into drugs the first day you were here, got drunk and fooled around with Eric, you left Alena out on the street for hours and you were about to murder a suspect for your country's personal gain. You know what Lori? You're not Colombian. You're American so pull your head out of your ass.

Lori: *frowning*

Speed: *frowning*

Lori: And you think you understand what I went through? What I had to endure?

Speed: *stands, walks over* I do understand.

Lori: No you don't. You have no idea. You lived in New York. I lived in a pimp's hut for eight years. You spent your life in a mansion with money, food, and parents. Do you have any idea of the suffering I had to go through?

Speed: This conversation is over.

Lori: Why, because all you had to worry about was which fast food place to eat at on a friday night?

Speed: Enough.

Lori: No. I want to know what was so damn hard about your life that you understand what I had gone through.

Speed: It doesn't matter. You got past it and you seem perfectly fine to me.

Lori: Funny, everyone else sees me as some damaged girl.

Speed: I don't.

Lori: You used to.

Speed: Maybe.

Lori: That guy...That I beat when we went to Colombia, he probably died. You let me do it. Why then and not now?

Speed: He caged you up like an animal until he needed you. He probably thought of himself as some sort of leader for you or someone you could come to for help. Like some twisted father figure and you probably trusted him, he kept you alive for that long. The truth is he was the animal. People like that don't deserve to breathe for another second.

Lori: *stares at Speed*

Speed: There's a difference between justice and murder.

Lori: ...Is that what happened to you?

Speed: No. My life was perfect. My only problem was which fast food place to eat at on a friday night. *leaves*

Lori: ...

TBC..................
 
Seriously Geni you and your 'father/daughter' moments. lol. I wouldn't go and say that Lori is damaged but she does have some problems that needs to be taken care of before she does somethin that she will really regret.

And awww poor Speed, I think we all know he has more problems then where to eat at on a Friday night.

And awww poor Joshie! *huggles* I hope Ethan is ok and that you find him! But Eric working the case? Is that such a good idea? I mean the man slept up in a tree all night long once upon a time....wait he did sleep in the tree didn't he? I dunno, I can't remmeber that was like...1,000 threads ago.

You're doing amazing work. Keep it up
 
Thanks Geni. Still having issues. Great update. :D

Update Soon. :D (FYI, this is the 3rd time I've typed this same review and the connection went on me the other 2 times. 3rd time's the charm I guess. :))

Edit: I think you're a good luck charm Geni. Everytime I post here, my connectivity seems to be ok for a little while afterwards. :D
