Great writing LII2. Update soon

As the cold winds raced through her long blonde hair, Lilly knew she had to find Scotty. While walking around followed a path into the woods after seeing some blood on the ground. Now standing in the pitch darkness of the night she found another abandoned home.

Inside the floors creaked while Lilly felt her heart beginning to pound inside. This place reminded her of being in the attic with George. Just hearing his voice sent more chills running down her spine as she reminded herself that he was dead. Then she stopped and turned upon seeing an evil looking man with black eyes staring right at her.

“You are petrified of me” He grinned” I hear it from both your heartbeat and breathing”.

Lilly remained focused” Don’t care now tell me where my partner is” before heavy smoke began to rise up. After finding a way out she ran fast until landing up on another street which led right to where Vera had been standing.

“Lil you alright” Jefferies asked

She breathed out realizing that the other building never went up in smoke. In fact it was still there Lilly knew this game of his had to end now.

“We got the wrong place” she said after Jefferies traced his last phone call. Now rushing over to another location Lilly was prepared even more to find him. When they got there she didn’t go into the building but walked around it .

Pushing some brush away she spotted an odd shaped barn but didn’t dare to walk closer to it. Now heading back the building burst into heavy flames. Lilly backed away far enough before hearing several footsteps walking closer.

“ So lost without your partner aren’t we Lillian” as the killer leaned closer” Remember those nightmares of waking up so scared and alone”?
Lilly already had her walls up not letting this twisted psychopath send her back downhill “ You say that but maybe it’s you having those nightmares. Except you make them become a reality”.
As he charged towards her she shot him as his body fell to the ground. Game was only halfway over since he was still alive. Now letting the paramedics work on him while Vera drove her home. It was morning as she fell asleep with Allie in her arms.

Wow...go Lil! Nice update.

[longislanditalian2]

Thanks took my all night to write this one

[lsr]

gah! Where is Scotty?! Lilly is going to find him right? It took a few days to get through all your chapters (just found your story - yep, I'm slow to the boat) but I gotta say.. I'm really enjoying this fic... I can't wait to read what happens next! Good job LII2!

[longislanditalian2]

Now awoke the killer watched as a male nurse checked his pulse. Inside his mind he wasn’t a vampire but had a desire to drink blood, especially of the weak. Just by looking at this man the killer knew he wasn’t one of them. Now all alone he was pondering his next escape needing to see the weakness that was haunting a certain blonde woman.

Meanwhile in the middle of a search, Lilly was able to get inside of the barn. Inside the sound of a heartbeat was heard before finding a note attached to the ground.

Everyone has a darkened sea

Taking the tape on the ground she began to run into the woods. Nearby there was a lake as a deep fear of death began to race through her mind.


In the brushes the killer spoke into a phone“Your breathing and hear rate are erratic oh I can hear it well” while watching the blonde. It now began to rain hard as Lilly walked through keeping an eye out for anything suspicious. Thunder now echoed through the sky before she turned before someone knocked her down.

Now lying there she heard a hissing sound close by. Now firing three shots everything went quiet as Lilly realized the bullets never stuck him. With fear shooting through her veins before being found by Jefferies; on their way back she saw dozen of lights blaring. A few minutes later Lilly stood there wrapped in a blanket.

Something caught her eyes as she followed the men. On the stretcher was Scotty as he held out his hand for her. Lilly immediately took it and didn’t stop holding it even on the way to the hospital. There she felt relieve to have her partner back alive.

“I think the tape might have information boss”

Stillman touched her shoulder” Let us take care of it; right now you are on maternity leave”.
By the next afternoon Lilly was sitting on Scotty’s hospital bed talking. Though he had a bandage around his stomach the wound wasn’t very deep but enough to have stitches. His memory was fully intact but didn’t mention what had recently happened. Even that night after Lilly had left Scotty felt guilty for leaving her alone with their daughter.

In fact he hated himself for doing that, but knew that they both still loved each other. Now breathing out Scotty tried shake off what the killer had put into his mind. He wasn’t going to give up the one person who had meant everything to him.

Just four days later the killer was nowhere to be seen. Everyone knew it would be another four years until he had struck again. Now leaving this case active the team wasn’t about to leave this one alone even with newer one to solve.

Meanwhile Scotty was starting to relapse but not all the way. What brought him comfort was holding Allie in his arms.
“Didn’t think I’d ever have her” Lilly said before drifted off to sleep.

4yrs later.


Lilly picked up the phone in the bullpen as a familiar voice came on the line” I’m backing Lillian miss me, you know it feels so good to kill again”.

She glanced over at her husband before the killer spoke” Got two children now and another one the way, ever tell your daughter where she really was born”?

“No why are you watching my family” glancing over at a photo of both her daughter and son.
He hissed” I know you fear me Lillian”.

After the phone call had ended Lilly sighed” He’s back but now he’s going to change his motive again”.
The squad knew they had to solve this before he went back into hiding. No one knew where to start looking since all the building had burnt down. Not trusting this everyone decided to keep cool and go through all the angles of this case from the beginning.

On the walk home, Scotty realized that Allie wasn’t with him. Nicholas was with Lilly as he began to frantically search for her. After calling for backup he knew this case was personal knowing the killer was only after them.


tbc..

[longislanditalian2]

During the whole night Scotty began to get aggravated with the killer. In fact he felt his fist clenching into a ball wanting to punch out this guy. That wasn’t going to do anything since nobody knew where he was going to be next. When while Lilly felt even more depressed while sitting there holding Allie’s baby blanket in her hands.

Silent tears began to stream downward frightened about where her own daughter was. Then the phone rang as more chills raced down her spine.

“I know your dread sweet Lillian can see that also on your daughter’s face. She cried all night for you and your partner”
Lilly glanced over at Nicholas before speaking” What did you do to her”?
“Nothing until you find me she’s won’t be found” before the killer watched Allie curling up in a ball quivering hard. Although he wasn’t going to kill her instead he threw decided to leave her alone and go out to murder some more.

It took more than a week before the squad found the body. On a trail a necklace was found as Scotty knew it had belonged to Allie. Holding it in his hand he could feel the sadness etching inside of him as the sun peeked through the trees. Other than that the search had come up empty as everyone got back into the car.

At headquarters Scotty too threw himself into relieving his own experience. His heart was constantly being listened to which was odd. Then just being alone unable to do anything before having to relieve the feeling he felt about almost losing Lilly.

Why was the killer changing motives each time he had reappeared? One thing still puzzled him as to why he knew so much about them. Just two months later the two of them get worried when a big blizzard struck Philly.

“What if the killer had pulled a Stockholm syndrome on her”?

Scotty let out a breath” Let’s hope he didn’t Lil”.

“ Allie probably thinks we don’t love her. She hasn’t seen us for awhile”.

He held her close as Lilly began to cry” Nicky’s missing her terribly, he’s sleeping her bed”.

Two days later Scotty was on his way up to Connecticut after the killer by accident called from a phone from a convince store. Luckily the store had the tape which clear identified him but also the car he had been driving. Now out searching in the woods Scotty found a pair of shoes belonging to his daughter.

That was the last time he was seen. Lilly now was worried for both her daughter and husband. She remained strong for Nicholas and now her unborn child. Although she had found out about it this morning her attention wasn’t on it.

Meanwhile the killer and Scotty were having it out in an abandoned factory.

“ I always wanted to be a doctor but couldn’t. One night I killed someone and tasted their blood. You knew it made me become alive again”.

Scotty remained strong” I already know you are a monster. Why taunt my partner and I for four years”?

The killer just grinned before hearing another set of footsteps” You are one heartless person taking innocent lives. Making it look like you could cure their heart but couldn’t”.

Lilly stood there” By the way second mistake by using a payphone close by just got you arrested. You are the ones with the darkened sea” as she stared into his cold eyes before whispering” It’s all in your mind”.

At that point he was losing it before he began to fire. After four shots Scotty looked up in deep fear before seeing his wife standing there.
“I’m fine” Lilly said before receiving word that they had found his car but where was their daughter?

[cellogal]

Eek. This guy is creepy. Like...George...creepy. *shudder* Good job with his character. Hope they find Allie soon!

[longislanditalian2]

Inside there was no sign of their daughter as the weather conditions began intolerable to search. Now staying in a motel Lilly was already asleep but not having the best of dreams. This particular one she felt as cold as tiny Goosebumps began to form on her porcelain skin. Her feet felt freezing as if she were walking on two big ice blocks.

Suddenly it grew quiet as Lilly felt so alone not knowing where she was. Then there was a gigantic mirror right in front as she stepped forward. Her heart beat slowed then her breathing as she saw the tiny life growing inside.
Then Lilly gasped seeing her own heart beating as flashes of the worst moments of her life appeared. Out of anger she smashed as tiny bits of glass began to stream all over the place. Then everything grew silent until her body began frozen like an ice berg again.

Looking up she saw Scotty as two shots rang out. Her heart began to race before his body disappeared underneath the water before someone held her under also. Lilly then gasped as she tried to get some precious oxygen into her lungs.

That’s when she awoke before finding herself on Scotty’s chest. Just feeling safe and comforted Lilly breathed out.
“It’s okay beautiful” he whispered.
She then noticed that his hand was gently stroking her abdomen. Before long Lilly had fallen asleep while Scotty lay there thinking about Allie. The truth was is anything did happen he wouldn’t know how to react. One thing he was for certain this interrogation was going to be one for the ages.

By the next night Lilly was walked down the now plowed road. Now looking up as a group of paramedics rushed over as she followed. In the snow lay her daughter still alive before holding up her hand” Mommy”?

Lilly took it” I’m here little one” as she got into the ambulance. Scotty saw a glimpse of his little girl lying there in a stretcher as more heartbreak continued. Deep in the snow back he found two tapes that he hoped who contain evidence.

At the hospital Allie lay in bed with an IV in her arm and a breathing mask over her face. The doctors knew she would make a good recovery. Lilly sat there stroking her cheek as Scotty stood there feeling extremely queasy. Utter shocked ripped through his veins upon seeing Allie there. Tears then began to stream downward.

Now backing into the hallway Scotty slid down the wall crying for his little girl. He felt like an absolute failure as father. Close by a clock ticked before he sat in the waiting room too scared go near Allie’s room.

Just two days later, Allie was having bad nightmares as Lilly spent half of the night reading the same book her mother once had.

“Read it again”

Lilly smiled remembering how many times her mother had read it to her. Somehow The Velveteen Rabbit had also brought Allie comfort especially now. By morning she sat there as Scotty peaked his head into the room.

He then entered” Hey Princess”

Allie hid underneath the blanket as Scotty looked at Lilly” Why is she still afraid of me”?
“It’s odd when Vera and the boss came in she acted normal”.

He sighed knowing that yesterday she had thrown a complete fit. Days after she had been released Lilly took some time off to spend with her. Allie's nightmares had become so terrible that she had stopped breathing.

Now once again hospitalized Scotty traveled back to Connecticut to see the killer. Sure enough he was doing much better and able to talk.
“Remember the basement where your Dad took you. You were so weak and in pain from not being able to fight”.

Scotty then realized who this person was” Why find me now”?

He grinned” I prey on weak people like you. Deep down you want to kill yourself, so bad. Didn’t the water feel nice”?

“Yeah” letting the words slip out

The killer took his hand” Leave your family Lillian doesn’t need a screw up like you. That baby needs to be given up you will stop her, it was a mistake”.

Scotty could feel his cold black eyes staring into his feeling now quite different. Now outside he knew he loved Lilly with all his heart. She was his one true love but maybe this baby wasn’t supposed to have happened. They barely had room for another child let alone for Allie to have her own bedroom.

[rebandmel]

Powerful update, update soon.

[cellogal]

Nice update! I love how Lil's reading The Velveteen Rabbit to Allie...nice touch from the show!

[Khaya]

We're making a big jump with skipping 4 years. Shocking to read the killer is again after them!
I think Scotty thinks way too bad of himself.
He does the best he can!

I'm sorry for the long time I didn't answer, but I explained it before. Very busy with school and writing myself. And reading costs a lot of time. I'll try to stick up a bit from now on

Great story ;D

[longislanditalian2]

Now heading over to the hospital Scotty knew he had get Allie to trust him again. Now sitting on the bed he watched as she began to hold on tightly to the blanket.

“Don’t hurt me” her voice merely a whisper as tears began to stream down. Scotty leaned closer” Why would I harm you princess”?

Allie began to cry some more as he wiped the tears away before pulling out a necklace from his pocket” Remember this”?

She reached up touching the necklace” Mine” allowing him to put it around her neck. Once there he pulled up the blankets closer before whispering something to her in Spanish.

Allie knew a little bit of it before refusing to sleep due to nightmare, like Lilly had after the shooting.

Now seeing her standing there, she got an idea “Think I may know something”. Few minutes later Allie was listening to Lilly’s heart through a stethoscope.

The sound was beginning to soothe her as she lay there began falling asleep. Scotty knew the killer used this because he never had had comfort or was frequently abused so much he started to enjoy it.

Now jotting down some theories, he made a mental note to head back to Connecticut. Soon after Lilly knew that Allie was in a deep sleep now as she put down the instrument.

“Whatever his motive you can’t let him get into your mind” she said

Scotty let out a breath before seeing his wife asleep. He then placed his hand on top of hers, a sign that he loved their unborn child as well. Glancing over at Allie he felt lucky that she was alive but would do everything to help her.

The next day Allie was doing much better as Scotty sat there giving her plenty of attention. Just about every doctor and nurse commented him on what a great father he was.

Somehow when she finally came home a few days later Allie remained quiet.
In fact one night she let Scotty hold her since her abduction. As he held her tightly Lilly smiled seeing that her little girl was a tough fighter. Just four weeks after these they both noticed that Allie starting to act likes herself again.

Now inside of an abandoned building Scotty faced the second killer.

“The heart beat is the first thing we hear, but it’s also bad. Lillian knows that very well the pain from being hurt. You do as well they also know. See I take it all away by convincing them that they aren’t really alive”.

Scotty could feel the coldness in the air” You prey on our darkened seas that right”?

He hissed” We all have them but Lillian is the strongest of them. She isn’t what I want but now I have my last victim you”.

Now staring into his eyes the killer hissed some more” You weren’t there for when Lillian needed you. It’s your fault she slashed her wrists. She trusts you but you can’t display your true feelings”.

Then a flash happened as Scotty remembered how Elisa told Lilly that she’s beautiful. Later on he blamed it on her medical illness. It flashed to series of more events leading up to shooting the aftermath.

Even during two particular cases he never tried to talk to Lilly. Although he saw the tears building up he just watched, especially since she wasn’t sleeping well. Scotty was facing the fact that he wasn’t such a good friend or husband.

The killer was right about him not being there emotionally for her. Now hearing footsteps Lilly stood there looking at him.

“Scotty he’s playing you against me”.

“No I acted like a fool all these years’.

Lilly looked at her husband” Not when you helped me through a tough time. Gave me a chance to be a mother, I’ve been able to put some stuff behind us”.

Scotty moved closer” Like the time I was with your sister”
“You were lost after losing Elisa”.

His fists began to clench as the killer spoke” You weren’t even there for her either. No wonder the poor thing killed her”.

Lilly bit her lip hard” He’s the one with the weakness not you”.

Scotty stood in front of his wife staring into her two blue eyes. Then he remembered just walking with her near 30th street taking about some train tickets found with victim.

On the Cardiff case back in ’04 he recalled sharing something about Elisa before heading into a meat packaging plant.

“Should have brought a coat, want mine won’t make you any less of a man”. Scotty then responded with” I’d rather Freeze”.

Lilly too liked those moments when they playfully bantered with each other. In her mind she adored him to no end. He was realizing this also especially knowing that his love for her was always strong. Now the killer started to flee as Scotty jumped on him.


The official game was over now the squad would have to find out the real truth from both men. A few hours later CSU was all over even the place where Allie had been found. Now recovering more tapes the squad was trying to get a better understanding of the killers mind.

For Scotty he stood there not understand why all of this had to happen. This wasn’t about him but something even much deeper than this. After a further mental evaluation the squad would determine the right cause of action for both men.


tbc...

[longislanditalian2]

Now with Scotty avoiding Lilly he slept downstairs on the couch. It wasn’t that they were fighting or anything but after everything the killer had said it made him ponder some things. By the next day while watching her unborn child on the monitor it got Lilly to thinking about the case. Maybe this was just a case of insanity than anything else.

What if this was just a ploy just so they could test out their reactions? It was obvious that they had studied their activity these past four years but why them and what was with the brainwashing? All these questions were pondering around inside of Lilly’s mind.
After the sonogram was over the doctor wanted to examine her in private. Scotty grew worried so much that he called Vera to watch the kids for a couple of minutes. Once inside he took her hand as Lilly sat there stroking her abdomen.

“We’re going to be okay” Scotty said before seeing the doctor walking in.
During the examination it revealed that Lilly was so stressed out that she needed to be one a month’s bed rest.
“I’m in a middle of solving a case” she said

The doctor jotted something down” If you don’t rest the baby could be in serious danger. Right now it’s a bit stressed itself”.

Afterwards Scotty led his wife home straight into bed. Lilly groaned” At least let me read over more”.

“No work Lil” he warned “Rest”

Just as Scotty was walking to work the next morning; Allie grabbed his hand tightly. Turning out she screamed before seeing that her father was nowhere to be seen.


tbc..

[longislanditalian2]

Allie grew scared as Scotty picked her up trying to protect her. Luckily they made it to headquarters before he sat her down in the break room.

“Permanezca aquí” (Stay here) before hugging her. Back in the bullpen he was busy getting on a bullet proof vest while preparing to go back to Connecticut. Somehow both of the killers had hidden the last remaining pieces of the puzzle up there. After putting on his Jacket Scotty came back in to hug his daughter once again.

Five minutes later, Kat took Allie home. Inside she saw Lilly sitting up in bed playing with Nicholas.

“Relax Lil we got everything covered”.

Lilly wanted to go out but as a mother she had to be there for her children; but felt relieved when Kat sat she would keep her informed. Now looking down Allie and Nicholas she knew her life was better with them in it.

Back in Connecticut Scotty was inside of the house when he fell through a trap door. Inside it was dark as he began feeling his way around. Using his flashlight something caught his attention of several dead bodies. One was recent judging from the blood that was caked on the victim’s mouth but behind them was a door.

Inside of that was four skeletal remains of people, looking down it appeared to be the members of a family. Sure enough on a man’s wrist it read the words” Darkened Seas”. Blood dripped down from the wall before his body hit the ground cold.

Looking up Scotty shook his head upon seeing his own gun in his hands. A bullet was discharged but didn’t make a sound. Then he saw Lilly lying on the floor as blood began to flow out of her. Water then surrounded her before seeing her blue eyes staring straight at him.

Scotty was now in the darkened sea which was the house that was the original place of the murder. He felt trapped but soon realized that this was the final brother he had to catch. The one whom brought the bodies to Philly and set up all the crimes scenes so perfectly; giving ample opportunity to leave any detective stumped.

Now with heavy smoke surrounded him Scotty had to get out of there. Upon hearing the creepy voice once more two bullets rang out; before both seeing the man’s lying on the floor as fire began to break out.

Meanwhile Lilly was beyond worried for her husband as she remembered what he said of the day of her shooting” If you need me, Just say Hey and I’ll be there”.

Her lips mouthed the words needing Scotty to be with her right now. Now hearing the bad news fear went through her. Losing him would be the worst thing especially how much love he had given her. As time when on by she remained strong, while gently rubbing Nicholas’s back as she began to sing softly.

Scotty found a way out as he breathed harder before watching the place burn. Despite getting some oxygen the paramedics took him to the hospital just to make sure. Vera was badly hurt as he lay there with a long cast on his arm. Now getting into the car someone collided into them on the Merit Parkway.

By morning Scotty was confused as the car drove over the Throgs Neck Bridge wondering if the collision really did in fact happen. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary before seeing Nick snoring next to him. His arm wasn’t in a cast.

After sometime he awoke again seeing the sign reading Philadelphia knowing they were on the Jersey Turnpike. Now opening up the door to the apartment Lilly embraced him as the two held onto each other for a long time, before darkness over took him.
When Scotty awoke he found himself hearing the sound of Jefferies voice.

“You okay”?

“Where are we man” he asked

Jefferies pulled him out” Had a little accident, think you can walk towards the other car”?

Nodding to himself Scotty got up and got into the backseat of the car” What if he’s still out there”?

“He’s dead you killed him”

Feeling relieved about this he sat there before noticing that Vera had faked him out in the hospital. The practical joker he was but then somehow the guy took a very wrong turn. By sunrise Jefferies groaned as they got stranded on the White Stone Bridge.

“You had to take that one didn’t you”?

Nick got out as Jefferies took over. Now cold Scotty sighed after finding out this cell battery was dead.

[longislanditalian2]

If anyone is still reading this here's the next chapter

In the backseat Scotty’s eyes drifted closed knowing that now him and Lilly needed time to heal; after everything that had happened to them both. Later that night he entered their apartment and went upstairs before seeing Lilly’s eyes fluttering open, moving closer the two shared a small kiss.

After changing into some warm clothes Scotty got into bed before feeling his wife’s head on his chest. Now listening to her breathing softly he too joined her in dreamland. By the next morning Lilly somehow got info on what had happened.


“I think they saw someone’s heart getting ripped out during the murders. Maybe he or she got too close to discovering the truth and got killed. That man must have brainwashed them so much that it became second nature to do so”.

Scotty shivering from see the images in his head” There was blood Lil, and bodies”. Pretty much after that he lay there trying to figure out how to move on. It had been clearly just two days before he had finally come home.

Now noticing that his wife had gone silent he grew worried “Something wrong”.

She nodded” I don’t like the way that Allie is breathing lately”.

He grew worried as Scotty got up and went into the next room. Bending down he listened to her breathe” You make an appointment” he whispered.

“Early tomorrow morning” she mouthed before seeing him check Nicholas. As a father he would do anything to ensure that his children would be alight. Now turning to Lilly the two went back into their bedroom before Scotty leaned down to kiss her stomach.
The news wasn’t good in fact after running some tests, Lilly cried upon hearing that Allie needed some minor surgery.

tbc..

[cellogal]

Surgery? Eek.

[longislanditalian2]

Yeah I might discountinue it since I can't find a way to finish this story

[cellogal]

Well, they've gotta at least catch this guy...
