Emily sat with her elbows on her knees and her head in her hands. After witnessing what JJ went through, after hearing what he did to her... she broke. She couldn't take it anymore. Before she knew it, she left the room and walked around until she found an empty interrogation room where she's been sitting, crying her eyes out for the past 10 minutes.

She cried for her. JJ cried for Emily while she was...

All of a sudden Emily slammed her fist against the metal table, creating a loud cracking noise.

"I did this. Not Alvin."

"She's mine."

"Emily do you understand that?"

"She will kill you."

Emily was hoping that for Will's sake, someone else got to him before she did because JJ was right; she was going to kill him. She wouldn't hesitate to. That was her wife, her family, and she has no problem doing whatever she needs to in order to protect her family.

"Fuck!" She screamed out before walking around the room. What the hell were they supposed to do? Sit around and wait for one of them to slip up again? It was bound to happen eventually, but they went five days already without slipping up. But it was possible that since Will is there and acting on his own accord, Alvin will retaliate. Both men love being in control so it was only a matter of time before it went south. She just hoped JJ wasn't in the crossfire when it did happen.

Emily hated this. She hated herself for letting it happen. If she was being honest, she knew something was going on with JJ around the time she started receiving those letters. She became jumpy and a little secretive. Emily should have pushed harder for her to tell her what was going on. And staying with friends? Absolutely not. That's not protocol. JJ should have been put in protective custody. Emily would have went with her without question and let the rest of the team to figure it all out.

"Emily?"

She looked up to see Morgan standing by the closed door. She didn't hear him come in through all her crying and thoughts.

Seeing his friend crying as hard as she was, was breaking Morgan's heart. Emily was always the toughest of all of them and to see her hurting like this was something completely new and sad.

"I can't do this anymore, Derek," Emily cried, not even bothering to pretend she was okay. She didn't have the strength to anymore. She leaned forward and put her hands on her knees as she let out a broken sob of a cry.

"Hey, hey, we'll find her," Morgan said walking to her. "Prentiss." He lifted her up and had her look at him. her brown eyes searching his for solace. "I promise you we will find her. We'll get her back."

She shook her head, her anger starting to show. "I'm going to kill him," she said, her voice cracking with anger and hatred. "How could he just..."

"Hey shhh," Derek said pulling one of his closest friends against his chest. As she cried against him, he rubbed her back and whispered reassuring things to her, hoping he could give her some of his strength.

"I can't lose her," Emily cried. "She's my everything, Derek. I can't lose her."

Derek didn't say anything but held her tightly as a tear fell down his cheek.

Meanwhile in the other room, Reid had hung up the letters they were able to get from the prison Alvin was in.

"The first letter was written by Will," he started as he pointed to the first letter on the top left corner of the board. "I want to know why you did it. Why you touched her. Why you hurt her."
