The Lady and Her Genius.

The insane family.

'This is not going well.'

Once we discovered my father no longer being dead. We ended up taking him back to the fbi base and are now monitoring him and Nik together. Of course, we made sure Nik didn't have anything that he could use to murder him. So now I was sitting across from my brother and father, face palming through the entire interaction as Hotch sat next to me so I didn't punch my father.

"I told you dad didn't die. And you didn't believe me." Nik told in a smug know it all tone.
"Of course I didn't believe! He shot himself in front of me Nickolas!" I pointed out.
"As we can all see. I'm still alive." Dad told making me give him an annoyed look.
"I'm pissed off at you."
"You need to grow up."
"Grow up?!" I exclaimed making Hotch put a hand on my shoulder so I wouldn't move from my seat and start fighting him.
"We are just curious about what had occurred." Hotch told taking over.
"Wanted to get away from the world. Simple as that really."
"Should have just joined me in the moon institute. I was presumed dead for the most part.... Unless it was this dude called like Victor H something? I don't know? Kept asking me about our cousins and always got made when I kept telling him, no one talks to me."
"That's cause you murdered people." I pointed out.
"In good reason!"
"Jesus Christ my whole family is fucking insane."
"Oh River stop being over dramatic." Dad told.
"Over dramatic! I'm not the one who fucken shot themselves in the head and acted like I was dead for their kids whole lives."
"It wasn't your whole life and I didn't shoot myself in the head. That was your uncle."
"Yeah uncle Bill! Who you told us was dead at the age of ten!" I stated.
"I told him to shoot himself in the leg where we were going to have the hospital say the blood loss killed me. How was I supposed to know he was actually suicidal." He told as he let out a laugh.
"Yeah next your gonna say mums not dead." I sarcastically told.
"Oh shit that would be a great plot twist. But no I saw the life drain from her eyes so yeah she hella dead." Nik informed as he slightly enjoyed this crazy semi family reunion.
"I need some air away from you two." I admitted as I got up to leave with Hotch following.
"River wait!"
"No Harold you listen to me! You left me at the age of 8 cause of what? You couldn't handle the fact that Nick killed our mum and you didn't have the balls to kill him."
"It's complicated."
"Complicated! No you abandoned me and made everyone think you were fucking dead and to be honest I wish you fucking were! You left your only kid who wasn't fucking locked up alone in the world! I grew up thinking hey my father may be dead but at least people were left with a good memory of you and had a reason to think you were a good person. Turns out your just a giant pussy with no balls." I told before leaving the room.
"OH SHIT YOU JUST GOT ROASTED!!!" Nik exclaimed before laughing his head off at it and Hotch followed after me, but made sure there was an agent in there to watch them.

We joined the rest of the team in the room beside the interrogation room to just watch what they were doing left to their own devices..... which was them being confusingly idiotic.
"So that's your dad." J said in disbelief as we watched them debate.
"Hell na that's my uncle. He's a con artist." I admitted confusing them.
"Wait how did you work it out baby?" Derek asked.
"My dad didn't say he died at the age of ten. He said age 7 and who the hell do you think I got the memory shit from." I pointed out with a shrug.
"Ohhhhh that makes a lot of sense." They all said at the same time.
"Yeah he is not a great guys that's why I went to live with Uncle Richard and Aunt Daisy."
"Wow your whole family is clinically insane." J stated.
"Mainly him." I told pointed towards my brother who was having a discussion with our uncle about an assorted fish salad. "God I hate my family so much. Why the hell would you want a salad that's just different fish?! Salmon doesn't match well with tuna I should know!"
"River you have gotten side tracked." Emily pointed out.
"Right."
"Well now I'm curious baby."
"Never get super drunk at an after party where the theme is under the sea and they have a large sea food plater." I deadpan.
"Alright then."
"Maybe your adopted?" Rossi suggested.
"I wish I was but I feel like I'm blood related sadly."
"I could find out." Penelope suggested.
"Still not gonna give you last names." I admitted.
"So what does your uncle want?" Hotch questioned.
"Money obviously. He's been very resentful about the fact I am the only sole owner of the fortune that I've been left with due to dad being dead. If he was able to convincingly play my father, then he'd get access back to it. Which would be bad." I explained before letting out a sigh. "Why couldn't I just have a family where there was another normal person that wasn't me?"
"Your mum was normal." Spencer told giving me a small smile.
"No she wasn't. She was drugging Nik so he could live a normal life and was going to do it to me as well. It's why he is clinically insane because all the drugs he was put on made him like this. She was delusional and thought she could change us. Instead she created the man who killed her." I admitted before leaving them to get some coffee.
