Fractured Truths | Spencer Reid

CHAPTER TEN

It has been 6 months. 6 moths of sleepless nights, 6 months of either breaking down emotionally or just devoid of emotions all together. I graduated university with my masters degree and got a great opportunity working with The Pentagon interviewing members of terrorist groups in order to understand their plans, intentions, fire and man power. I am currently in Afghanistan with an army group who are trying to find the head of the terror group, Omar. I have been enjoying my time here, I love my job and feel like I'm contributing to bringing these criminals to justice.

Walking out of the tent, on my way back to my 'housing' I spot Elvis approaching with the biggest smile on his face
"I know."
"You know what Ror?"
"You've found Omar. You're going after him." We carry on walking
"How do you know that?"
"I know you Elvis. You may be the Special Forces ninja but I know behaviour.. and yours tells me you're excited and that always happens right before a mission. Tell me I'm wrong." I sass. 
He stops and turn me to face him.
"You're not wrong." I sigh knowing the dangers he's putting himself in "you better come back."
"I would give all this up for you, you know that." I smile and walk closer to him "No. No you won't. This is who you are. You love it, you can't live without it."
"Yeah. Yeah I love it but I lov..." I interrupt
"Elvis, don't go there. What we have, it's amazing and fun but you don't love me. Your heart does and always will belong to Georgie." He looks down at his feet and sighs
"How are you so smart?" He says cheekily,
"Not smart baby, you've just been hit in the head one too many times" I joke, he laughs quietly before grabbing the back of my neck and bringing me in for a kiss.

Waking up the next day, Elvis is already gone to capture Omar. Approaching dark, his team comes strolling through the gates with none other than Omar himself, now it's my time to shine. I get ready, reading his files, memorising everything I can to help me swerve the interview in a direction that will benefit us.

Once I feel I'm ready I walk in.
"Good evening Omar, I'm Aurora." I greet as I take my seat. He stays quiet.
Playing on his weaknesses "you can say quite all you want. You're not as good as you seem to think you are. Your ego and pride get in your way." I see his face contort to one of fury. "Your men, who are supposed to be loyal to your cause, to you. They're not here. They left you." He just looks up at the clock on the all and smirks.
"You know that's the third time you've looked at the clock since I walked in. What are you waiting for?" He finally speaks "You'll find out soon enough. dirty army whore." And then BANG. I hear the commotion outside the door, shouting, guns firing and truck engines. I don't move just look into Omar's eyes, I am not going to give him the satisfaction of seeing me frightened.

ELVIS'S POV:
I watch as Aurora walks into the interrogation room, she has a look of sheer determination on her face, she turns to me and gives me a wink before slipping her mask back on and her feet carry her into the room. I am with Captain James watching from the cctv in the room. She's good I'll give her that, just as she's progressing, I turn and see trucks ram the gates down and shots being fired in every direction. Omar's men have come to collect him and take down as many army personnel as they can. While pre occupied fighting off the enemy, I notice I haven't seen Aurora leave the interrogation room, she's in there alone with Omar. I make my way back to the computer screen once the bullets have stopped, and Omar's men are down. Aurora is now in the chair with Omar and a few of his men by his side circling Aurora.
I hear her say "you think this is going to help you?"
"You are going to help us. In exchange for your life, I will walk out of here. And if not, you will just be one more army whore I get to kill." She laughs and I think "what is she doing?"
"Too bad I'm not part of the army then isn't it? Guess that just makes me a simple whore. Nevertheless, I would gladly give my life to see you locked up." What is she doing? She's goading him, it works and he punches her in the face. She just laughs "You don't scare me Omar. I've been in this exact position with much scarier people." I just look at her through the screen, shocked. She never told me anything about that, why wouldn't she mention something so important? I have so many questions running through my head but they are going to have to wait. Omar looks up to the camera "I want a truck for me and my men, you are going to let us go. You will not try to stop us or try to capture me again" turning to Aurora he places a machete at her neck "or she'll be the one who suffers" Fuck.
