Moose Pt. 1

I was chasing down an Unsub with Luke through an overgrown forest. We had out vests on and guns drawn ready for a shoot-out. Local PD were surveilling the area.

"We found the hole. It's empty. No kill kit" an officer reported over the radio

"Because he's got it already" I replied with a bit of attitude

"Backups on your way what's your twenty?" the same officer asked. Just as I went to reply a shot was fired at the tree next to me. I quickly crouched behind it as Luke ducked just in front of me

"Suspect is about 200 yards west of the highway. Headed towards the access road. Let's go" He said down the radio ushing me to follow him as we continued to chase down the suspect. We came up to a small clearing just as a car took off, but a police car blocked it's exit

"No, no. Do not box him in" I yelled in frustration down the radio "We need to take him alive"

"Suspect is armed. He has fired on officers. We're not letting him go" The officer retaliated back

"Listen to me! If he thinks he's cornered he's going to" a shot went off and blood splattered the inside of the car "You dumb fucks" I snapped

"Shit" Luke called out, also frustrated by the local PD's incompetence. He moved to clear the vehicle and grabbed the kill kit out of the boot

"Kill kits intact" he noticed. We sent the kill kit back for analysis where Luke met Rossi to show him before waiting for Tara to get here. I checked back into the BAU building, handing in my vest and grabbing a fresh coffee from the pot. There was another meeting in the briefing room, so I headed straight there. After some small talk, Pen and JJ finally arrived meaning we could start

"Oh it is so nice to see you my fine furry friends. Ohhh! Did I ever tell you guys about that time the hot dog filter went on the fritz at SOAR" Pen greeted all of us until Rossi gave her a stern look "Oh, but we can't talk about that right now. We have to talk about sad things"

"What do we have on this fuckhead?" Rossi asked making me chuckle lightly

"Sicarius?" Pen checked quietly. I gave her a small nod in response

"Sir, I.. I was able to find a hidden message app on all our suicidal Unsubs' phones, and that helped me identify a discussion platform that Si... Nope, no. That f...f...It doesn't sound like coming. I found the site that the Unsub network has been using to communicate. So far, I can only get the public posts, but all signs point to this is how they're coordinating"

"How does he find them in the first place?" Rossi questioned. It is odd that these people would just randomly find each other on the same site

"Well, I mean, considering the pandemic shifted his behaviour from actively killing to finding others to do it for him, we can assume that most of the recruitment happened online" Tara spoke

"But a serial killer, I mean, who's willing to die? A suicide pact takes leverage. He'd have to have intimate details to get somebody to off themselves" Luke war right, it is extremely uncommon for a serial killer to kill themselves let alone this many in a row all connected to the same network

"We have seen a lot of self-radicalisation due to isolation" JJ added

"We said he's a good profiler. He profiles his victims. He'd profile his followers" Rossi tried to make sense of it. He is the smart one, got experience on his side.

"I mean, are we talking about a cult leader here?"

"Well, maybe. Or maybe he thinks he's an artist, giving out kill kits like their paintbrushes, teaching the next generation of serial killers" I said, disagreeing with Luke politely
