A/N: This is slightly A/U. I don't think I have read anything like it before. If I have borrowed anything from anyone then you have my apologies. Let me know from which CSI story was used and I will gladly give credit where credit is due. Everything is completely made up and I have no idea how factual any of the medical information is. I wrote this story on a whim in February of '07. I think my muse is self medicating due to the crazy story ideas she sends me. (LOL)

Experimenting with Genetics
Sara and Greg entered the crime lab in the break room for the first time in a week. Nick was the first to spot them.
"Hey, how was the conference?"
"Awesome." "Disturbing." They both answered at the same time. Grissom took charge of the situation.
"Greg, why was it disturbing?" Greg set down at the table with two cups of coffee and placed one in front of Sara, who smiled gratefully.
"Ok, so it wasn't all bad, just the medical part. It was about the latest research to be released to the public. Apparently, there is now a way for men to carry babies. It's been experimented on monkeys successfully. They're looking for volunteers to try this on humans." Greg shivered in disgust. Sara placed some pamphlets on the table for all to peruse at their leisure. She started to talk at the same time.
"Everything Greg said is true. I found it fascinating. They shared all of their data as part of their presentation. They did say that their lab would cover all medical expenses if you are approved for the research. They even pay for the complete physical needed by both the potential mother and father. If you're approved, then you are subjected to rapid hormone shifts because you would be receiving three hormone shots in the ass everyday before conception and implantation. There are labs all over the country and I took the time to write down the Vegas information in case any of the men around here are interested." Greg shivered in disgust again.
"Where do the eggs come from?" Nick asked while glancing through the pamphlet.
"A spouse or girlfriend would be the obvious choice but there are also women volunteers in case you can't find a generous friend to help you. If any of you decide to do it, I would be glad to give you shots in the ass." Sara finished with a smile on her face.
"Would either of you be willing to donate an egg to me?" Nick asked.
"You can't be serious?" Greg was shocked that Nick was even asking these questions.
"Why not? I wouldn't do it unless I knew where the egg was coming from. So, what do you say ladies?"
"One kid is enough for me. Sorry Nick." Catherine answered while looking over his shoulder at the information Sara brought. He looked at Sara with a question in his eyes.
"I'll pass, but thanks."
"Are you ready for kids?" Warrick asked.
"Sure, I could be a single dad. I just don't want an anonymous egg."
"Well, there are a few other women around here or you could ask one of your ex-girlfriends. I know you're still friends with all of them."
"Maybe." Nick fell silent. Grissom on the other hand, focused on the slips of paper in his hand.
"Well, since no one is with child at this time, let's get to work shall we?" He handed out assignments and everyone dispersed.
