"Alright Keni, this is gonna be hard I know. Take it slow, don't try and rush to get it over with alright?" JJ spoke softly to the girl.
Hotch and JJ were sat in chairs next to the bed with Keni sat up facing them and Spencer sitting on the bed next to her for support like she wanted.
"So do you know the man who took you?" Hotch started the questioning off with an easy question. The girl nodded looking anywhere but the two agents sat in front of her. "Would you be able to identify the man if we stood him in front of you?" Another nod came from the girl.
"Ok. Would you be willing to describe the man to a sketch artist?" She nodded again earning a chuckle from the blonde agent in front of her. "You will have to speak in order to do that, you know that right?" There was undertones of sass laced through what JJ said to the girl who still hadn't spoken unless it had to do with the lanky boy next to her.
"I-i kn-ow. I-i can d-do it." Her voice was still quiet and raspy but they could still make it out clearly.
"Alright good. Next, where exactly were you held for the three days you were gone? If you remember?" She thought for a moment "i-i don't k-know...there was a ro-om... everything w-was wh-ite...t-then a p-i-nk r-room...t-then a-a long hall-way..." The three agents looked confused. "do you know the lay out Keni?"
"T-the white room...it was above..the pink room...i-i had to climb down a trap door to g-get into it...then t-the pink room was at the end of the hall way.." it was the first clear and coherent sentence she'd spoken the whole time.
"Were there any windows in the hallway or any of the rooms?" JJ pried for more information from the girl. "one small o-one in the white room..none an-ywhere else.." Hotch wrote everything down and nodes before standing up "Good job Keni, thank you. Reid, come on."
The boy stood up and followed Hotch and JJ out of the room as the nurse walked in past them.

"Ok so clearly she was held in a basement right?" JJ asked once they entered the private room where the rest of their team was in.
"Well Florida homes don't have basements...maybe a building that's been built with no windows?" Emily said looking at the notes Hotch took during the interview.
"I don't know...she could have just been in rooms with no windows." Hotch said "we can't be sure the rest of the building doesn't have windows." The team agreed as Morgan went to call Garcia to have her look up information. "oh Spencer, you can go back to Keni now."
He quickly walked back down the hallway of the hospital to the girls room. He couldn't shake this stupid protective feeling he had over Keni. He just wanted to be near her, make sure she was always safe and it had to be him watching over her or else it wasn't good enough.
He stepped in the room and saw Mari sitting in the chair JJ had previously sat in, she was speaking to Keni who was leaning back against the pillows listening to her sister. Both heads turned to Spencer once he entered the room. Immediately Keni patted the open spot next to her wanted the man to sit on the bed with her, which he did obviously.
"Thank you for taking care of her agent." Mari said once Spencer sat down on the bed. "You can just call me Spencer" he smiled "and it's my pleasure, she's very special." He glanced at Keni to see her cheeks tinted pink and her eyes casted to her hands in her lap.
"I heard she's been speaking, is that true?" Spencer nodded answering the older girls question. "She answered all our questions and she's also asked me a few questions herself. Which is a very big step and I'm very proud of her." Her sister continued to ramble on but Spencer's eyes were on Keni. The girl was now asleep, a soft blush across her cheeks and her face softened and relaxed as she got much needed rest.
