Chapter 1: Hotch's Office

"Great!" Ari thought "It's only been what? A week! Yeah! A week since I was in hospital for 20 months and before that I was being tortured for US government secrets, and I have to work with the FBI and SHIELD as a liaison! Not to mention the CIA! Gods, they're so annoying! Sympathy anyone? No? Fine! I don't need your pity anyway!" There was a long pause between thoughts. "Okay! I desperately need pity! And don't forget the sympathy!" she thought finally before checking her black watch and remembering that she had an urgent meeting to go to with Hotch and Rossi, about how much times have changed and how Ari wasn't to spike the drinking water with Russian vodka ever again.

The first two times, Reid got pretty embarrassing. Like saying that one of the only friends he has was dumber than a rock was embarrassing. Damn funny though.

As Ari reached Aaron Hotcher's pretty bland office, she could hear him, David Rossi and Hotch's ex-wife whositsface with his baby son with the colourful name of Jack...I think... no definitely Jack... or Bob... or James... or oh just stuff it! The rugrat ain't even a main character, so why should I remember his bloody name? ANYWAY back to my riveting story! Ari was just about to knock on the office door, when Hotch's wife opened it for her.

"How the bloody hell did you know I was out there?" asked Ari kind of amazed.

"Simple, I saw you in the window. Actually Aaron did and he told me! Great isn't it? Said um...er... Haley!

Thank you Wikipedia! Back to the story! Haley just kept on staring at Ari's not-so-recently scarred face. Ari didn't say a word and simply side-stepped the woman and continued into Hotch's office.

"Welcome back Agent Howlett" said CIA Agent Bruno Hawks.

"Hawks! Aren't you supposed to be dead?" asked Ari, "Yeah! You're supposed to be dead by the end of the first season! You know, the *cough* car accident *cough*?"

"No... What are you talking about?" asked Hawks.

"Oh... Nothing! Now why am I here?" she questioned.

"Alright Ariana, the reason you're here is to talk about the changes in the workspace and not to mention your um... practical jokes" said Hotch strangely distressed.

"Oh wow! Hotch is distressed! How long have I been gone?" wondered Ari as she noticed that Haley was still staring at the many scars that now covered most of Ari's body.

"Um Hotch? Could you asked your wife to either stop staring at me or take junior, and leave?" she requested "Now?" Ari noticed that Hotch, Hawks and Rossi were also staring at her scars.

"Oh yay! Everyone is having a gawk! Shame I can't! Hello? Everyone! I have a bomb!" she shouted.

Chaos was ensured. The agents were holding their guns directly at Ari's chest.

"NOW that I have your attention... STOP STARING! It's rude!" Ari said confidently.

Everyone was starting to apologise, when the office door opened again.

"Hello Miss Howlett, how has work been?" asked the director of SHIELD, Nicholas Fury.
