We headed back up to the police station to tell Hotch our news.

"Hotch," I said, "There was dissection on the fathers' arm and leg."

Hotch frowned. "So was anything missing?"

"No. We think it was just curiosity."

By the look on Hotch, Rossi, and JJ's faces, I could tell they understood. "We're. Dealing with an adolescent?" asked JJ quietly.

Hotch sighed. "I...I guess we are."

An hour later we were ready to give our profile. "We're looking for an adolescent female," Hotch began, "Who is armed and very dangerous."

"She's probably done this before, so look up families that were killed under strange circumstances," added Rossi, "Maybe even in other states."

"According to the geographical profile, it looks like she's headed west, which means she probably has a destination in mind." Reid said.

"And most of her rage was aimed at the parents, mostly on the father, so we can safely assume that they were all surrogates for her father, who probably abused her." I added

"Thank you that's all." finished Hotch

We headed back into the conference room, when my phone rant. It was Garcia, and I put it on speaker phone. "Baby girl, your on speaker phone," I said

"I don't care who's there it's always been you" she answered

I sighed. "What do ya got, Momma?"

"Well I looked for more I solved murders in the areas surrounding your crime scenes and nadda"

"Come on, baby girl, I know you didn't call just to give us that. What do you have?"

"Well, as I said, I looked around, and nodda, but, don't fret, for your neighbor hood technical genius thought three steps ahead," she took a deep breath, "and I found two more murders Oregon. Both families, though only in one was the father's foot dissected."

"So she's evolving, becoming more interested in the kills, and the human body." I said.

"The question is, where is she going, and what is she going to do when she gets there." said Hotch

Not fifteen minutes later, the chief of police came in. "Your going to want to see this." was all he said.

It turned out, she had struck again, this time, only 10 minutes away from the police station. What had happened, was, according to the children, was that she was alone in front of the grocery store, and claimed that she had gotten separated from her parents, inside the grocery store, and had left her cell phone with her parents. Their mom had made the decision to take her home and call her house phone. After they had gone to bed, the girl came into their bedrooms with their mom tied up. "My mom kept telling her that it wasn't her fault, and that she could give her anything she wanted. So the girl said she wanted to go home." the little girl, who's name was Sasha was crying. "Where's your daddy?" asked Miranda

"He's-he's in Iraq. Fight-fighting the bad guys," she said, "Are you guys gonna get my mo-mommy back?"

"Absolutely." said Miranda with a reassuring smile. Then led both Sasha and her brother away.
