The three stare his limp body as it falls.

"Son of a-" Rossi shouts.

"They couldn't have gone far. We'll find them," Reid says looking around the house immediatly.

The search every room, closet, even the attic, but nothing.

"Guys, if you can hear us say something, please!" J.J. yells.

Rossi and Reid join in and yell out their names.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Derek, Emily and Hotch sit, until they hear J.J. It's muffled, but definetly J.J.

"Down here! Get medics, guys!"

Hotch drift off again.

"No, no, no, Hotch wake up man," Derek says as Emily screams.

"Still nothing," Emily huffs.

Hotch passes out. Fully out.

"Derek try with me. We might have to risk going up these God awful stairs," Emily sighs.

"You're lighter, go first," Derek says and she nods.

Emily walks up the stairs as easily as she can. One cracks under her and she yelps.

Derek grabs her waist and reassures her.

"Okay, I can't step on that one, it'll break. But try beating on the door and I'll yell. Okay?" Derek asks and Emily hesitates looking at the creaky stairs.

"Y- Yeah."

"I believe you, I'll be right here to help you," Derek says.

"Okay, okay," Emily says, "Five more stairs. You got this, Emily."

One step.

"Keep going, I'll start yelling," Derek says and he starts.

Two steps.

"Why is it easier going down than up," Emily huffs.

Three step.

It creaks and Emily jumps.

"Few more," Derek cheers her on.

Emily nods feeling a bit more confident.

Fourth step.

It breaks under weight and she falls down.

Emily yells and Derek rushes down and under the stairs.

"Emily, are you alright?" Derek rushes. He touches her arm and she flinches.

Derek looks at her arm seeing blood cover his hand.

"I'm okay. We got to keep going, Hotch's unconscious and my arm has a nail in it," Emily says covering the wound.

Derek looks down and sure enough there was a nail sticking out of her arm where she landed.

"Lucky day for us, huh?" Derek laughs but Emily doesn't.

"Just yell more, please," Emily huffs.

Derek nods and does as he's told.
-----------------------------------------------------------
"Where are they?" Rossi kicks the wall.

"Let's ask where it is. We'll ask Dasmin," J.J. says.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang.

"They're outside, let's go!" Rossi races outside.

They go outside then they realize there is nothing to hide in.

"Where are they," Rossi says to himself.

"Get the dogs. Who knows how long it'll take for him to reveal where they are," Reid says, disappointed.

They get the dogs and they let the dogs smell there phone and gun.

The dog runs straight to the bookshelf and everyone goes confused.

"I think we got a broken dog," Rossi jokes.

"No, we didn't," Reid says.

He rushes to the bookshelf and moves it, J.J. helps him and they see a door.

"Oh my God," J.J. says and rushes to Reggie's kitchen.

Reid smiles. We found them.

J.J. rushes back and unlocks the door with the key in his kitchen and they go down.

"Spencer!" J.J. stops him and points out the broken floor.

"Guys! Is that you?" Emily says looking up and Derek rushes to the steps.

"The steps are way too unsturdy to go up. Also, get medics, we got two wounded," Derek says.

"Is one of them Hotch?" Reid hides his smile.

"Yes, it is," Derek sighs gratefully and Rossi calls for medics.

"We need to figure a way to get you, Hotch and Prentiss out," Reid says.

"I see a plank of wood, I'm sure if we balance it could work," Derek says after looking around.

He grabs it and steadies it for Emily to get up. Emily slowly but surely gets up the plank and Derek grabs Hotch's limp body.

"Now or never," Derek huffs as they hold the plank on the other side.

The plank wobbles back and forth but Derek steadies back and forth and makes it up safely.

Spencer's eyes well up of joy from seeing him and that he is alive but also of sadness cause of the condition he's in.

"I'll ride with him to the hospital," Spencer offers.

"Prentiss can go with him, she's getting fixed up anyways. We'll meet them there," Rossi says.

Sadness forms in Reid but he hides it and walks away.
