the traumatized, brunette girl sat waiting in the station. Her leg bouncing up and down and her fingers tapping together, 1,2,3,4. 1,2,3,4 trying to calm herself down.

What was she going to do? Tell them everything? Vivienne hadn't thought through the fact that the police would have to know things about her father that went unspoken her whole life. Things no one knows.

but the thing that worried the girl the most was what was going on back at the house right now. He would be coming for her, her father would hunt her down.

vivienne sat there wondering the possibilities. Had her dad ran away, and taken the blonde with him? Or was he going to stay, and face his problems?

By now, vivienne was sitting in the cold chair, glancing out of the police station window. Her eyes wide and her expression blank. She was in shock, trying to suppress a panic attack.

Before she could finish her thoughts, she was interrupted. The same woman she had spoken to at the reception desk was walking up to her.

"Ma'am, some of our officers are here to see you. Please follow me." The woman says soothingly

Vivienne stands up from her seat, adjusts her pants and makes her way to following the woman. With a million thoughts racing through her head, only one happy one came to mind.

She was going to get justice.

the petite Girl is led into an interrogation room. A table with two chairs, one on each side, and a light hanging above them were the only things in the room.

"please, sit." The officer commands

She he's a police officer, because that's what the receptionist told her. But the man is wearing a suit. He's tall, dark hair, brows furrowed. He looks like he's upset about something, or this is just his resting face.

"Goodmorning, I'm Unit Chief SSA Aaron Hotchner of the Behavioural Analysis Unit. I'd like to question you about the statement you made earlier today." The man was while clicking a pen

"Yes, of course." Vivienne says , tucking her hair behind her ears

There's tension in the room. Vivienne begins to wonder if she's wasting this man's time, if she's crazy for thinking her dad was a serial killer. Her mind starts to wander , what if they think she's an accomplice? Her life could be ruined. What if it's true and her dad goes to prison? Her little brother Dean will be devastated with no father figure.

"What is your name?" The man says while looking up from whatever he was writing

"My name is vivienne gray." I say In a gentle voice, trying to not seem too sad, or too calm.

"And your father's?" He says in a more serious tone.

"Nicholas Gray, sir." She responds

They just HAD to send in the most intimidating fbi agent known to man to talk with me, I mean really, they couldn't get someone a little closer in age, easier to talk to.

All of a sudden, a loud ringing breaks their silence. A deep breath escapes her as the man digs through his pocket. He fishes out his phone and as he looks at it , his face goes blank.

"I'm sorry. You'll have to excuse me, another agent will be without you in just a moment." He says before answering his phone.

"Hey Beth. What's wrong?" His voice trails off as he answers the phone, exiting the room.

the agent exits, leaving her on her own. Every second that shes sitting in this empty room alone, her  anxiety grows. Every second that her father is free , her panic sets in.

About five minutes pass. at this point her nails are bitten to the skin, her leg won't stop shaking and her fingers tap that same beat against each other.

1,2,3,4 1,2,3,4 1,2-

Shes cut off by the door opening.

The door opens to reveal what looks like a different agent. Another male, but younger. Looks about 27. He's slim with short, brown fluffy hair. He wears a sweater vest and has a big cross body bag. He looks nerdy, but in a hot way.

he takes a seat, putting his bag on the ground and pulling out a pen and notepad, the name notepad agent hotchner was writing on.

The man analyzes vivienne for a second, scanning her before looking down at the notes.

"My name is doctor Spencer Reid. I'm another agent at the BAU. I'm sorry about our other agent, he had a family matter."

"It's completely fine, don't worry about it." She say while putting on a fake smile, her nerves settling bit by bit.

"Alright, vivienne can you tell me what happened today that led you to come into the station?" He says while focusing in his full attention on the brunette girl

She nods.

"this morning, I woke up and went downstairs. I was making breakfast when I thought no one was home. But then I heard a scream coming from my basement, an unfamiliar voice. So I went to the basement door and opened it. A blonde woman I didn't know was lying on the stairs, crying. Begging for help. She had blood all over her. I told her I would go find someone. So I called 911 to my house and then left to go to the police station. My dad tried grabbing me , he told me he would find me, and kill me. but I escaped him." She finally spits out shakily, feeling her cheeks burn up and tears start to swell in her eyes. She quickly wipes them, trying to be professional.

"unfortunately we got there and.." the man pauses "no one was there."

Vivienne feels her entire world crashing down on her within seconds. They hadn't found him, he was going to come back and kill her, he wasn't lying. She always knew when someone was lying.

By now he had probably taken the girls mom and brother, doing God knows what to them.

"Oh my God." Escapes her lips as her shaky hand begins to cover her mouth. The other running nervously through her long thick hair

"Vivienne I need you to stay calm. You are our best asset on this case and if you cooperate, everything is going to be okay." The man tries to calm her down, a nervous look in his eye as if he doesn't interrogate often.

"Don't lie to me. It's no use." The girl mutters while looking down as she picks at her thumbs

"E-excuse me?" The man says curiously, as if he'd been caught.

"you looked to the right, started tapping your right foot and blinked 10 times in the span of 6 seconds. You're lying." The girl mutters in an annoyed tone, not trying to show off.

"how- how did you-" he stutters as if he wasn't prepared for her to profile him

"I'm just about finished with college to be a profiler, just like you. I'm not stupid." She mutters

"it seems we've gotten off track." He looks down at his file
