[Kim Everette]

[-Continued from 'He Just Won't Stop'-]

"Zac?" Kim asked. A sigh escaped her. "Alright, I'll see what's important then." She said. Kim had sat up in bed next to Ryan, still staying very close to him, leaning on him a bit. She had the phone to her ear and had called Zac wondering what was so important that made him call her at night. Kim was waiting for Zac to pick up, maybe it was about Lee, hopefully they caught him.

Then he explained and her built up excitement of possibly having Lee captured went away, but she felt a cold shudder go down her back when Zac mentioned Wesley. "Yeah, I..do.." Kim said. "Are you serious?" Kim asked Zac. Sitting up even more. She felt a cold shudder in her back and her stomach started to hurt again causing her to lean over a little bit, "Damn it," Kim said, referring to the pain but Ryan and Zac would probably think she was referring to what Zac told her when she said 'damn it'

"Kesley Gideon?" Kim asked. "Yeah, it wouldn't be a copy cat, he always leaves "WM" on his victims..." Kim had some really bad memories from that case. "I'll come over there, we'll talk about it there." Kim said as she hung up the phone. Her head turned to Ryan, "An old case from New York came up, I have to go check it out." Kim said as she leaned over to kiss his cheek before getting out of the bed. Then she remembered, "Damn, I left my car down the street of Lee's house, can you take me to get it?" Kim asked, looking over to him. "Then you can come back and sleep," Kim said smiling to him.

---------------

After about 30 minutes, she had gotten to the FBI HQ, wondering if Ryan was going to go back home. "I'll call you when I'm done," Kim said as she kissed him softly on the lips and walked up the steps into the lab. Most likely, Zac was in the break room so she walked in there. "Alright, let's see the evidence, we'll go over it again." Kim said, standing at the doorway. She hated this case so much, and feared Wesley but didn't tell Ryan or else he wouldn't let her work it, why did she fear it? Well, the scar can explain it.

[Zac Villanova]

"Alright," Ryan smiled, kissing her back before she turned around and headed up the steps that lead to the FBI HQ. "Call me whenever and I'll come get you." he reminded her before turning around and getting back in the drivers seat of the yellow Hummer and pulling out of the parking lot.

Zac let out an annoyed sigh before leaning back in the wooden chair that was in the break room. He'd gone over all the old Morganson case files, any old news paper articles about Morganson or his victims, even went over the crime scene pictures from New York and compared them to the new crime scene photos of Kelsey Gideon; as much as he wanted to find something that says it was a copycat, there was no doubt that it was Wesley Morganson.

"I hate this guy," he mumbled to himself quietly, standing up and walking over to the half-empty coffee pot to refill his plastic coffee cup. "Had to come to Vegas. Out of all the states, of course he had to pick Las freakin' Vegas," he mumbled to himself again, he was about to say something else when he heard Kim's voice.

"Hey," he started, turning back around to face the doorway where Kim was standing. "Yeah. I wasn't able to get ahold of the actual evidence since it was locked away in the New York Evidence Vault. But I was able to get the crime scene photographs and our old reports on all the evidence." he explained, walking back over to the break room table and sitting back down. "I also had Reid fax me the case files, crime scene photographs, corner reports on the victims along with whatever else we had on this guy. Unless I'm missing something, there's no chance of a copy cat," God, I hate this case.

[Kim Everette]

Kim walked over to Zac and stood next to him, looking down at the table at all the new and old photographs. Kim grabbed one of the old photographs from New York, it had a close up to an arm and had a burn mark with "WM" on it and the Kesley photograph with "WM" "Look, he always puts WM on the arm." Kim began, looking closely. "Like a brand, he brands his victims. It's like this guy wants us to keep track of all of his victims." Kim said, looking over the photograph. "What gets me is...why he comes all the way from New York to Vegas," Kim said, puzzled. Why did he come? Out of all the close and far states, he chooses Vegas, Nevada.

"The sedative," She began. "If it's the same sedative he has always used it may not be a copy cat. Maybe he created his own sedative." Kim said, thinking. "Has the sedative already been traced to see what it's made of?" Kim asked, staring at it. "He's not only a murderer, he is a kidnapper." Kim said, remembering the day she went hostage. "We almost had him at that house, when he held me hostage.." Kim said, putting a hand to her stomach. "You know how much I hate this case and how much I fear it." Kim said looking to him. "Almost didn't make it, almost died" Kim said, picking up some pictures and looking through them. "Ryan doesn't even know.." Kim said shaking her head.

Then, she looked at another evidence bag. "You didn't check the evidence in this bag." Kim said opening it and dumping it out. There were little papers in there with numbers and words. "Hey, are these addresses?" Kim asked. "He keeps addresses of where his victims live or future victims.." She said as she reached over to grab a paper with the list of Addresses where the past victims were. "Alright, over here will be the addresses he has gone to and over here are the ones he might go to." Kim said seperating them, but 3 were left. "Oh my god, Zac, look!" Kim said showing him two papers. One paper has Zac's address and the other has Kim's address. "Future victims, he has been keeping tabs on us.." The other address was one they hadn't been to yet. Kim swallowed hard, worried and a bit scared, she hated this case from the past event that almost ended her life.

[Zac Villanova]

"Exactly," Zac replied when Kim said that it was like Morganson branded his victims with the 'WM' burn mark on their arm. "It's like he wants the police to know it was him," he added, looking at one of the old New York crime scene photographs again. "Like the drugging and kidnapping them before stabbing them in the stomach and shooting them twice in the head isn't 'signature' enough for him," he mumbled, remembering Morganson's M.O. for killing his victims.

He nodded, reaching over and going over the coroner's report for Kelsey Gideon that talked about the sedative found in her system before handing it to Kim, "It's the same. A mix of Niaprazine and Diphenhydramine... the same sedative mix that was found in all of Morganson's victims system's," he told her, naming the two sedative drugs used.

"Yeah..." he said quietly when Kim mentioned the day they almost caught Wesley Morganson in a house in New York when Morganson took Kim hostage. "..And then the gun misfired." he added, talking about the fact that when he tried the shot Morganson, the gun had jammed up and hadn't shot. "I know. I almost didn't call you for that reason. If you want I can get someone else to handle it..." he shrugged, knowing how much the case scared his friend. "We're going to catch him this time, Kim. No one's going to get hurt." he tried to reassure her.

How'd I miss that? "So, this guy keeps a address book of his victims and future victims?" Zac said more to himself them Kim, reaching over and looking at a few of the papers with addresses on them; one was from a victim in New York and another was Kelsey Gideon's address. "What?" he asked when Kim said 'oh my god' then showed him the papers where none other then their addresses. "We're on his future victim list..." he mumbled, looking at the papers again, almost hoping to notice that they read the addresses wrong; but nope, it was diffidently their addresses. "Wonderful." he mumbled sarcastically, worried for both of them.

[Kim Everette]

"Well, he did get the police to know and yet he still keeps it up.." Kim said as she looked at the pictures. "Drugs them first, kidnaps them second, then stabs them and shoots them twice. " Kim repeated, trying to think as she looked over the photographs. "He has our attention.." Kim said. "Wesley...what are you really after? Why let the police know who you killed..." Kim said to herself, thinking

"Niaprazine and Diphenhydramine," Kim repeated as she looked over the sedative trace in New York and the one in Vegas. "Yeah, he does use the same one and that is a very strong combination," She said. "Diphenhydramine can also be Benadryl," She continued, Benadryl helps with the allergies. "But mixing it with another sedative makes it very strong." Kim said, looking over the reports and whatnot. "Diphen as very strong side affects, perfect sedative for him apparently." Kim said looking over to him.

"It's not your fault, accidents happen." Kim replied when he said the gun had misfired. "No, I'll stay, I need to work the case because I'm the only one that knows it, besides you of course." Kim said when Zac said he could get someone else. "That was back in New York though, so it's in the past, no big deal." No big deal, yeah right. Kim thought to herself. She was trying to make Zac feel better cause it sounded like he had guilt in his voice when talking about the time his gun misfired but the same wound began to hurt again, and Kim hasn't had it checked.

"You think this is a game?" Kim asked, looking to Zac. "He keeps list of his victims, brands them with his initials, won't stop killing even though he has our attention. It's like a contest or something.." Kim quietly said. It could be anything but Kim was trying to throw out ideas to help with the case. She stared at the addresses. "Future victim's list..." She repeated with worry. "He won't get that far, why put our addresses? Doesn't he suspect we could call for backup? Unless, he wants us to play this little game with him by giving us addresses and such." She said. "There is this address," Kim said, showing it to Zac. "Should we go check it?"

[Zac Villanova]

"It's all a game to him. Serial killers do it all for not only to kill but to get everyone's attention, after he's got our attention, he wants to see how long he'll get away with it." Zac said, looking at some of the old New York newspaper stories about Wesley Morganson. "Maybe that's why he took off from New York in the first place. We where to close to catching him."

"Exactly. He wants a strong combination... knocks his victims out quickly and keeps them out longer." he commented when Kim talked about the sedative mix Wesley Morganson used. "Niaprazine is also a antihistamine... but it's normally used for its strong sedative effects. I mean, it's got to be strong since it's sometimes used to treat insomnia." he added, also looking over some of the reports and such. "This is one hell of a strong combination he has here,"

"Very possible." he replied when Kim asked if he thought this was a 'game' Morganson was playing. "He also might be doing this just to scare us..." he shrugged, talking about the fact that Morganson had their addresses on his 'future victim list'.

"It could be a trap..." he said quietly, looking over at the other address that Kim showed him and asked if they should go check it out. "But I guess so, incase it's not a trap we might be able to warn who ever lives there..." he added, unsure if this was a bad idea or not. I've got a bad feeling about this,

[Kim Everette]

Kim nodded to Zac as he talked. "Well, it's a sick game. A lot of serial killers do games like this." Kim said, shaking her head. "He won't get away with it for long, we'll get him this time, we have to." Kim said, also looking over the newspapers. "He, of course, uses force entry to get to his vitims. Wonder how he picks the victims," She asked, trying to piece everything together.

"He does have a strong combination. But how long do his victims stay out?" Kim asked. Kim turned around and walked to the computer that was in the break room and got on the internet, going to a website to research the sedatives. "Look at these side effects, especially on Diphen," Kim continued. "Put all this together, it's so much to take, he is a crazy man." She said, shaking her head. "This makes a very strong combination," She said, looking over the info as she walked back to him.

"Scare us? That's true," She replied. "He scares all of his victims. It's brutal how he makes them suffer, drugging them and with those side effects they must feel horrible." She said, looking over all the evidence.

"Could be but it might not be. We don't know." Kim said to him. "We'll go but we will stay very cautious and alert." Kim said as she slowly everything back in the evidence bag except for the address they were going to. "I've got a bad feeling but in order to catch him we have to follow what we have." Kim said as she finished cleaning and organizing things. "Let's go,"
