"Sir, we've almost got your demands ready. Before we do, can I ask why you're doing this? It's not everyday someone robs a bank." You listen for an answer.
"I just lost my wife and son in a drunk driver accident, don't have much point to life. Thought I go out on a high, if I can get out of here." You feel for him and start coming up with a plan.
"Sir, I can't say I know how you feel. But I lost my family and some army buddies a few years ago. And I can't imagine how you're feeling." You ask him one more time, hoping he'll do it again.
"Maybe, you should let some more people go." He starts to breathe heavily, "No. I want to get out of here, if I let more people go you'll just come in."
"Will you let more people go if I come in? They won't come in with an officer there." He agrees and says before you hang up, "No gun or vest. No tricks."
You hang up and wave over to Emily and Derek. "I have a plan, but I need you to do something for me." They both nod and realise what you're going to do.

Emily and Derek are talking to JJ, you strip your vest and leave your gun next to the phone. You hear Emily saying to JJ, "I'm sorry."
You start walking to the bank doors, your hands are up and you made sure to take your cellphone, it's patched into the phone outside.
Derek barricades JJ and you can hear her screaming. "Y/N! No! Please, no!" You breathe deeply and reach the door.
"Sir? It's Agent Y/L/N. I'm at the door." He opens the door and more hostages run out. "Inside, quickly." He ushers you in with his gun and asks you to sit in a chair next to the window.
"Can you tell me your name now?" You look up at him and smile, "Oscar....Oscar Clarke."
"Hey Oscar, your demands are on their way. They are going to bring a car for you, you can drive to a private airport and fly to Chad on one of our jets. Maybe enjoy some Bacon and Eggs when you get there."
You are hoping JJ's listening in, you hope that she's calmed down and realises you're ok. "Oscar, we're going to call the outside phone and then my boss will tell you how it works, ok?" He nods and you press the call button.
"Hi Sir, it's Aaron Hotchner on the line. Your car is parked out here and one of my agents will drop a vest at the door." He breathes out heavily and points the gun at you and takes you to the door.
You open the door slowly, your hands are in sight and you pick up the vest from outside. But you notice the label on it, ArmyTech?
You look up and see JJ waving, she tries to run to you but Derek stops her. You walk back inside and help Oscar put on the vest.
You hear Hotch on the line, "Sir, what you need to do now is walk to the door, with my agent and we will let you get into the car. All by yourself." And before he hangs up, Hotch says one more thing, "Sir, you need to stay calm and walk slowly. We won't shoot." You know that Hotch would never say that to a man who had a hostage.
You ask Mr Clarke to hold your hand, "Let's go, together. You'll be ok." He holds onto your hand and you identify yourself loudly when you open the door. You both walk out of the door and you see Hotch about to speak into the radio.
You close your eyes for what is going to happen next. *CRACK*
You step forward and keep your eyes closed. You don't open them until you feel the rush of wind and pressure of JJ hugging you. You open your eyes.
You turn to look at Mr Clarke and just see his body laying on the floor. His vest swallowed into his chest. You look back around. Seeing him lay like that reminds you of your deployment.
"Here, Y/N." JJ wipes your face with a towel, getting all the blood off. You both walk back over to the team.
You sit down and Emily hands you a bottle of water. You drink it all while watching SWAT take Mr Clarke into custody.
"J? Can you sit with me for a second?" She pulls up a chair and sits next to you. She places her hand on your thigh and the other holding your hand. She moves from your thigh and places her hand on your back, moving her hand side to side.
"Y/N, you did a great job." Emily says as she hands you another bottle of water, "Who was it?" You ask her, she's confused. "Who was what? Y/N." She replies.
You become frustrated and then ask, "Who gave me the ArmyTech vest?" You stand up and she points at Hotch.

"Y/N, don't do anything stupid ok? JJ says as you approach Hotch. "Why? Why ArmyTech?" You ask him as he's turning around. "Y/N, it was our only option. It was the closest vest we could get."
"Did you plan to give him a faulty vest? Or was it just of convenience?" You ask as you lose all the blood from your face. "Y/N, think about the next set of words that come out of your mouth." He says without expressing emotion.
"That man lost his life today, everyone he loved. And you planned for his chest to swallow a vest from a call that was not necessary. He gave up, we could have cuffed him." You say slowly to make sure he hears you, "Y/N, it's not your call. Go home, be refreshed for tomorrow." You lose all respect for him.
"I quit. JJ I won't make you pick, stay with the team. I'll be ok."
