"Fleur?" Elijah hummed as he knocked on the door,"We're here."

"Hey you two. Welcome back!" Fleur hummed.

They had been away, visiting Diana for a couple of days.

"It's nice to be back." Reid nodded.

"Oh I missed you two." Fleur hugged Elijah, knowing Reid didn't really like hugs.

"I missed you as well." Elijah smiled.

"Get your greasy hands off my girl." Morgan chuckled as he walked in,"Good to have you back, boys."

"Greasy- Fuck you." Elijah crossed his arms,"This is why I like Flo more."

"I'm joking. Let me get my stuff." Morgan laughed.

"You better."

"Oh! Reid, I got news back from that thing you asked me to look at." Fleur handed over a file.

"Oh- It's nothing." Reid assured him.

"Things your big brain wouldn't understand." Fleue chuckled.

"Of course." Morgan sighed.

"Guys? Garcia and Hotch need us ASAP for a briefing on the four hitmen." Reid looked down at his phone.

"Just great." Elijah shook his head.

"Brain Cochran from NSA. I've placed him on a 24/7 lockdown at USP Terre Haute. The network has proven that they can kill anyone, anytime, anywhere and now that they've targeted Garcia, we can't afford to lose another lead. Cochran used one of the hitmen to target DEA Supervisor Graff." Hotch explained.

"But we can press him on that to get him to cooperate." Morgan nodded.

"Well, fortunately that won't be necessary. He had a breakdown in solitary confinement and he was already willing to make a deal." Hotch sighed.

"We need to go talk to him." Rossi pointed.

"Garcia and I already did." Hotch shook his head.

"That is, we video-conferenced with him. He was limited in what he could tell us about the hit people. He didn't know their names, but he did know all their areas of expertise." Garcia told them.

"How specific do they get? Most successful hitmen are basically just Swiss Army Knives of murder." Reid shrugged.

"Well, take the OG hit guy that got us into this mess, Giuseppe Montolo. Remember him? He was a genius at making hits look like accidents. The others, it depends what you're looking for. Take the guy that's still out there who's responsible for shooting poor Mr Graff. He's known simply as the Sniper. He can make a T-zone shot from over 2,000 meters." Garcia explained.

"Which means he's ex military. Not necessarily ours, but he's definitely trained." Fleur nodded.

"So who's number two?" Tara asked.

"That would be the Chemist. He works with poison. He specialises in hits that don't leave a trace." Garcia looked at the file.

"He sounds delightful." Elijah crossed his arms,"What about number three?"

"That would be the Bomber. According to Cochran, he's responsible for this." Garcia showed an explosion on the screen,"It's a chemical fire in Tianjin, China. Apparently a bureaucrat didn't pay his bribe on time."

"All that's conspiracy theory garbage." JJ shook her head.

"But what is credible is Cochran's insistence that he was trained by Mossad. Jack Garret is following leads. That leaves us with rhe number four, the one with the highest body count of them all." Hotch added.
