The Flight

Time to Remember

Kate's eyes open and panic is quickly sent through her body when she realizes she is on the ground; with somebody sitting besides her.

"There you are. Are you okay?? I wasn't sure if you were going to wake up so I figured I'd wait here till you did. Didn't want to leave you alone in the dark," he says as he leans over her body.

"Reid?" Kate asks as she tries to sit up, but is unable to.

He moves to stop her from struggling, "hey don't hurt yourself anymore than you already are. Just lay still. Now who's Reid?"

Kate takes a look into the male's eyes, just to be sure, "you are. You are Dr. Spencer Reid-"

"Well if I'm a doctor, I don't remember anything on how to help you.. I'm sorry, you must have the wrong person," he says as he scoots away.

"No no don't leave. I need your help," she says as she tries to reach for him but can't move her arm.

"I- I won't leave you. You'll be okay," he says as he grabs ahold of her hand and lets her calm down.

"I can't move. I- I can't feel anything..." Kate stutters as she struggles again to move but gives up and leans her head back down.

"Umm. Hey, I think I saw an old cabin thing a while back. Would you like to go back there until we figure out what's going to happen," he asks as he stands.

"Sounds fine. I just don't think I can get there on my own," she says as her eyes follow as he paces around.

He paces around for a minute, thinking and then speaks, "if I remember correctly, there was something that might work up at the cabin."

"If course you remembered correctly," she says with some sarcasm.

He stops and looks at Kate, "pardon?"

"Never mind. Just go and get it. Doesn't look like I'll be going anywhere anytime soon," Kate says with a smirk, lighting the mood in this scary time.

"I'll be right back," he says as he runs off in the opposite direction.

Kate lays on her back, looking at the rising sun and slips into her thoughts.

Reid. How does he not remember? Where is the rest of the team? Oh my gosh, what if they are seriously injured. Why can't I move? How long was I out for? How long did Reid sit next to me while I was unconscious? What if Reid really doesn't remember me and doesn't come back, leaving me out here to die; he wouldn't do that would he? Hell, he doesn't remember anything... he doesn't know who I am so really he doesn't have to come back. Oh my, what about Chris and Meg; what if I never get to see them again. They've already lost so much... Amnesia.. Our genius has amnesia-

"Mmmmm," Reid clears his throat, snapping Kate from her thoughts.

She blinks and looks up at him, not sure what to say.

He walks over in her line of sight, dragging something behind him. "I got it."

She finds him pulling a good sized canoe, "that works."

Reid positions the canoe next to her body and leans down over Kate, "I'm not sure if this is going to hurt but we need to get you out of here."

He carefully moves her legs to lean inside the boat and moves over to her head. He grabs under her arms and lifts her and lays her gently down.

"You okay?" he asks.

She nods in response, as he starts to pull the heavy load over the mountains terrain.

After some time of being pulled around, listening to Reid grunt as he pulls the canoe with all his might, they reach the cabin. It is a very small wooden home, probably deserted several years ago.

He marches through the door, pulling the canoe behind him.

He stops in the middle of the room and plops down next her Kate.

"Thank you," is all she can think of saying.

"You are very welcome. Would you like to get out of the boat now?" he asks with a small laugh.

Without waiting for an answer, he gets up and moves a rocking chair from the corner to the middle of the room.

"1. 2. 3.," he counts as he lifts Kate up and into the chair.

"You never told me your name," he asks randomly, as he sits in front of her so she can clearly see him.

"Kate. Kate Callahan," she answers.

"Do you want to know something? It's kinda funny. But I have no idea who I am. I woke up on the ground some time ago and started walking, not sure where I was going. I came across you and had a feeling you needed help. I don't know who I am.... and that scares me," he says as he shyly looks to the ground.

"Hey. Look at me. Would you like to know about yourself?"

He looks up quickly, "yes please."

Kate takes a breath and then begins, "your name is Spencer Reid. You are a Supervisory Special Agent in the FBI and you hold three PHD's, hence the title Doctor. You are out here because we, our team, were on our way to Carson City to help on a case, when our jet crashed. And that is why we are stranded here. Wherever here is."

"FBI? Wow. So you and me are on the same team?" he asks interested.

"Yes. We are in the BAU, meaning Beh-"

"Behavioral Analysis Unit," he says, cutting Kate off.

"Yes, ha there comes the genius we all know," she says with a laugh.

"Genius?"

"Yup. Mr. Spencer Reid with an eidetic memory and can read 20,000 words per minute, plus and IQ of 187. You sir, are a genius."

"Wow," he says with amazement, "can you tell me more about the team?"

"Well, there is Aaron Hotchner, or Hotch, who is the boss. Then there is Rossi, who is the older Italian who's been here since the beginning. Then Morgan, who is the one who wants all the action. JJ is the blonde who takes care of the media. And Garcia is the girl behind the computer," she says and she sits, going into deeper summary of their looks, personalities, and families.

"And they are all out here somewhere?" Reid asks.

"Everyone but Garcia. Oh, she's gotta be freaking out about now. One thing about her, she will never give up until she finds us. And I'm positive about that."

He sits and thinks for a second and then stands, "we need to go find them."

"They are all probably looking for us. We should stay together," she says as she almost leans out of the chair.

Reid moves to catch her and set her back, "you need your rest. How about you get some sleep and I'll go find them. I'll be back before you awake."

Kate doesn't want him to go but can't stop him, "fine. Just promise me that you'll stay safe and come back to me."

"I promise," he says as he heads out the cabin door into the rising sunlight.
