My boss

Facing Your Enemy (22)

I slowly wake up to someone in the bathroom. I see flowers on the table and smile. I get up quietly and hear my boyfriend on the phone;

"Garcia what do you mean the team can't find him?" I freeze knowing she means Kyle. I know where Kyle is... He's at the docks... Where Sam proposed. "We need find him Garcia. Keep searching." At that moment I make a decision I know I will regret later. I pull out a pen and paper;

Aaron,

I'm sorry about the fight and I'm sorry I took off. Before we got to talk. I know where Kyle is. Here's the address. I'm already on my way there. I'm sorry. Reid says that I shouldn't let him make me a killer... But I already am one. I let innocent people die for 4 years. I watched them die. I am a killer.
I'm sorry...

Love always...
Li-Anne.

With that I take my gun and make sure it's loaded. It's time to face my enemy. I run out the door and head straight downstairs. I jump in a taxi and I'm gone.

Hotch POV

"He's not at either locations sir. The team can't find him." I freeze "What do you mean the team can't find them." "Exactly what I said Hotch.." She says sounded frustrated. "We need to find him Garcia keep searching." I hang up then I hear it. The door slams. I run out to and empty room, I panic then I see the note. I read it and freeze. "Damn it." I jump into action calling Reid. He picks up and I pretty much yell "Put me on speaker and 3 way Garcia NOW!" It takes me a few second to tell them everything. Then I hear JJ "Oh God. Hotch you got to stop her." I say in a quiet voice "I know... Im here see you all soon." I hang up and run in the warehouse and stop and a loud scream. And I turn the corner. I freeze in horror and yell "LILY NO!" And she freezes...

Back to Lily POV

I get to the warehouse and I know the exact one. I walk in and I see the forth victim dead. I grid my teeth "Come out you SOB!" I hear clapping and I then to face one of my greatest enemies. He smiles "Li-Anne. When Sam told me what happened. I couldn't help but tell him I told him so. See I never liked you. And it's not only because you're disgusting. It's because I could smell cop on you. Now look at you, big shot BAU profiler and you're dating your boss, do they know you killed someone? I'm guessing not." I freeze at that last part "I didn't have a choice Kyle. It was me or her..." I take out my gun. And he laughs "See you're here to kill me." I glare at him and smile. I drop the gun. "No I'm here to face one of my biggest nightmares. I'm here because I wanted to see you one last time. I'm here because I want to prove to myself that I can stand up to you. So come at me." And in a flash he is running at me. I step aside and take the hand with the knife and rebound his knife into his own leg. He lets out a scream. I approach him and grab him by the hair and I knee him in the face. He falls to the ground holding his knee. I walk towards my gun an point it to his head then I hear "LILY NO!" I freeze...

I turn to a worried Aaron. I still have my gun trained on Kyle. But I'm shaking. I feel Aaron approaching "Lily please don't. You're not a killer. What happened in those 4 years was survival. Lily please." Then I hear Kyle let out a pained laugh "Oh Lily please. You're not a killer. They don't know about Maria. Don't they. Shot the gun." Then I head Reid "Don't. Shot." He sounds mad. "Lily. You shot. He wins." I look at Kyle. And he's smiling with a knife in his leg, bloody nose. I back up right into Hotch. He grabs my wrist lifts I up and I pull the trigger. That bullet was meant for Kyle. I grid my teeth. And Hotch takes my gun and holds me in place. I don't fight him but my eyes lock with Kyles he smile "Do you remember the rush. With Maria." I shiver. And Morgan runs towards Kyle. He looks at me one more time before Morgan pulls him away "2 down one to go. You're best friend will be in touch. I'm sure you're dying to see him." Morgan pushes him.

I look up at Hotch an he doesn't look mad. "Aaron." He hugs me but quickly let's go. He looks at me "What were you thinking." He says quietly. He's more hurt then mad. "That I wanted to take back my life." Hotch looks at me and sigh "I'm sorry about earlier." I smile "I'm sorry about this. We have one strange relationship don't we boss." He smiles slightly "We do..." Then I look at the the of the team an I know the question is coming... But I don't expect it from Reid...

"Who's Maria?"
